Chapter 35: Are you worthy?
Lin Sa glared at him and pretended not to care, but his eyes dimmed: "I am happy to be idle, let them do whatever I want. You and Tingchen are both only sons, and no one snatches your property from you. I'm so happy. I'm different. There are wolves in front and tigers in the back!"
Jing Shaoqing changed the topic and dug out the recent industry news: "Something happened to Tingchen, and the partner jewelry manufacturer had an accident. Someone took away the jewelry raw materials, worth nearly 100 million yuan. A factory that is not big or small can't stand this matter, and it's probably over."
Lin Sa sniffed in a muffled voice: "It's only 100 million, Tingchen can afford to lose, but the unfortunate one is the small factory."
At the same time, Wen Yan also saw this news. When she saw the manufacturer's name clearly, her heart suddenly sank to the bottom. "Hongrong", isn't that Chen Mengyao's factory?!
She hurriedly called Chen Mengyao, but prompted to turn off the phone. She knew Chen Mengyao. Chen Mengyao was afraid that she would worry, so she would not only not ask her for help, but also not let her contact her.
Just as she was hesitating whether to go to find Chen Mengyao, a stranger called over and said, "Hey? Is it Wen Yan? Is it Zhan Chi, have time to meet?"
This is the first time Zhan Chi is looking for her. Now that I want to know the situation of Chen Mengyao’s family, I can only pass Zhan Chi. She hurriedly said, “Yes! Where are you?”
Zhan Chi replied: "I'm downstairs of your company, a white Cadillac."
Wen Yan didn't have time to ask for leave and went downstairs directly.
After getting into Zhanchi's car, she asked, "Where is Yaoyao? What's the situation now? Her phone can't be reached!"
Zhan Chi lit a cigarette: "She doesn't want to bother you, so she simply doesn't answer your phone, but now you can only help her. You should know about her family. The things she lost are worth 100 million yuan, not counting as liquidated damages or something. This is going to lose everything. I know it's selfish to ask you for help, but I still think... I should come to you, after all, the most important thing is Mu Tingchen."
Wen Yan was in trouble. Even if she asked Mu Tingchen for such a large sum of money, could he agree? The Mu family is not short of money, but the wrong party is indeed in Chen Mengyao's house.
"What do I do?" she asked.
Zhan Chi paused and said, "It is impossible for Mu Tingchen to give up such a large sum of money. You go and ask him to give up some time. When the police solve the case, it is certain that they cannot cooperate in the future. In terms of liquidated damages... you should try your best."
Wen Yan sighed: "I understand. I will talk to Mu Tingchen about this. Please take good care of Yaoyao, please..."
Zhan Chi smiled at her: "Don't worry, she is the only woman I love in my life, the most important person I am. Thank you for agreeing to help me. I'll find you. Don't tell her that she won't let me find you."
Looking at the sincerity in his eyes, Wen Yan suddenly felt better about him. At least from this matter, others are good. As long as she can be good to Chen Mengyao, she thinks she is a good person.
In the afternoon, Wen Yan got home from get off work early and spent several hours preparing a table of dishes by himself.
She doesn't like a way of pleasing with clear purpose, and she is not ashamed, but she can't help...
After seven o'clock, Mu Tingchen had not come back yet. She was worried that he would not come back for dinner, so she called him.
The phone was quickly answered, and she calmed down: "Are you coming back for dinner?"
On the other end of the phone, Mu Tingchen glanced at Jiang Yanyan beside him and said, "Yes."
After hanging up the phone, he stood up and said, "I have something to do, you can eat it yourself."
Jiang Yanyan put down the knife and fork in her hand, and the high-end steak on the plate was completely useless: "Brother Tingchen, this was what you compensated me last time, why are you leaving again? Could it be... my sister called you?"
Mu Tingchen smiled faintly: "She is your sister after all, you shouldn't be so stingy."
When Jiang Yanyan saw him laughing, she lost her temper. Even if she felt uncomfortable, she could not keep him anyway. It would be better to be a well-behaved lover: "Then you can't leave halfway next time~"
Mu Tingchen didn't say anything, and replied with an ambiguous look. At the moment of turning around, his expression returned to coldness.
When he returned to Mu's house, it was already 8:30. Wen Yan was so hungry that he felt uncomfortable. When he saw him, he subconsciously became excited: "Are you back?"
Mu Tingchen said lightly, and as usual, he went back to his room to take a shower first.
She looked at the dishes on the table that were no longer warm and felt a little disappointed: "Ma Liu, let the dishes be hot."
When Mu Tingchen came down, the food was already hot again, and Liu Ma couldn't control her mouth: "Young master, the food today was cooked by the wife myself, please try it!"
Mu Tingchen's eyes were not in a turbulent manner, and he sat down at the dining table. He knew she had something to do.
Wen Yan whispered, "If you have eaten outside, then forget it."
He picked up the chopsticks and ate slowly: "If you have something to do, say it."
She was a little nervous when she was seen through so directly. She didn't know how to speak for a while. After a long time of planning, she said: "Can you let Yaoyao go? There is too much money and they can't bear it. Wait until the police solve the case and recover the materials, okay?"
He suddenly put down his chopsticks and looked at her coldly: "You have tried your best to make such a table of dishes for this?"
"Yes..." She made a frank statement.
Mu Tingchen's face darkened a little: "Public is public, private is private. I don't want to talk to you about such a stupid thing at home, so there is no need to discuss it!"
How could she not know his style? He has always been meticulous about the company's affairs, so why would he not pursue the matter for a few words?
"Mu Tingchen... I didn't want you to not pursue it, I just gave them a chance, okay? A little over 100 million is nothing to you, but it's all their money, and I can't afford to lose everything." She thought of Chen Mengyao falling from a high place where she was pampered and had no skin, and she couldn't accept it. She couldn't bear such a good person...
Mu Tingchen's voice was not warm: "What identity are you talking to me? Chen Mengyao's friend or my wife?"
She was a little surprised and didn't know how to answer.
He lost his patience and got up and entered the study. The sound of slamming the door was clearly heard downstairs.
Liu Ma walked up to look at the table of dishes that had not been moved much, and felt a little distressed: "It's a pity that a table of dishes, the most important thing is that their efforts are wasted. Yanyan, if some things will destroy your relationship, you should leave it alone."
Wen Yan shook his head: "Yaoyao is my only friend. I remember how kind she treats me. I don't care about it. I can't do it. I will work hard, no matter how he treats me."
On the side, Butler Lin, who had always been in charge of his affairs, suddenly interrupted: "Madam, today is the young master's birthday. You cooked a table of dishes not for this, but for other things. Isn't it surprising that the young master is angry?"
Wen Yan was stunned. She didn't remember this at all. In her impression, Mu Tingchen had never celebrated his birthday...
