Chapter 115: Sandy Breakup
Chen Mo's LD laser disc factory was not originally just for making money.
First, Chen Mo needed to squeeze money out of Jingkun through this; second, Chen Mo was preparing for the rise of VCD a few years later.
The real profit would come later.
However, Chen Mo did not intend to tell these things to Lu Bin Sun.
"Old Sun, what you say makes sense."
"But I definitely have my reasons for doing this; you'll find out later. What you need to do now is help me get this factory up and running."
"For your safety, I'll have Li Jie arrange a few bodyguards for you, and Jimi and Da Dou will also follow you. Then you can work with peace of mind!"
"Okay, then I won't ask further. It's just a factory; it's not difficult for me."
"Originally, Lu Bin Sun objected to Chen Mo's plan, partly because Chen Mo's plan indeed had flaws, and partly because he wanted to show off his abilities."
"Since Chen Mo said he had other plans, he no longer insisted."
"Chen Mo then discussed the factory construction with Lu Bin Sun for a while, then went straight back to the bar."
"Lu Bin Sun took over the new factory's construction, so Jimi could prepare to depart for Yinghuaguo to purchase karaoke equipment and disc production equipment."
"Then he also needed to prepare to ask Jingkun for money."
"After all, Jingkun is no fool."
"To squeeze money out of him, we cannot tell him the true situation of the disc factory; we must optimize the paper data."
"Only by letting Jingkun see high returns would he possibly invest money."
"In the evening, Chen Mo went to Sandy's place again."
"Sandy looked like she had slept through the afternoon, still wearing pajamas, and had just finished making dinner."
"Wagyu beef, red wine—you've prepared dinner quite well."
"Chen Mo directly speared a piece of beef and shoved it into his mouth, juice flowing."
"The taste is good."
"I didn't make your portion; if you want to eat, make it yourself."
"Sandy gave him an annoyed look and took the fork from Chen Mo's hand."
"Thinking of how Chen Mo had subjected her to two harsh interrogations during the day, leaving her bedridden for a day, she felt full of resentment toward him."
"However, in Chen Mo's view, Sandy's little resentment was just a girl's shyness."
"Come over a few more times, and you'll get used to it."
"Chen Mo gave a hehe laugh, then went into the kitchen to make his own dinner."
"Although Sandy didn't cook his meal, there were still plenty of ingredients at home."
"Just as Chen Mo was busy in the kitchen, the doorbell rang again."
"Although Sandy didn't open the door, she also guessed who was outside."
"She turned her head to glance at Chen Mo in the kitchen, unsure whether she should open the door."
"Chen Mo walked out of the kitchen and raised his eyebrows at Sandy."
"Fang Zhixin?"
"Sandy gave an awkward nod."
"She still didn't quite know how to face Fang Zhixin, after all, they hadn't broken up yet, and she had gotten together with Chen Mo."
"Chen Mo said indifferently, 'Open the door; it's a good chance to clear things up with him.'"
"Sandy took a deep breath and slowly walked over to open the door."
"Fang Zhixin stood at the door, holding a bouquet of roses; seeing Sandy open the door, he revealed a proper smile."
"Why did it take so long to open the door? I..."
"Before he could finish, Fang Zhixin saw several striking red marks on Sandy's neck."
"That thing was not unfamiliar to him at all; it was clearly a love bite that had just been given not long ago."
"Fang Zhixin instantly felt his head grow heavy; a hat full of springtime aura appeared out of nowhere and smashed onto his head."
"You......"
"Seeing Fang Zhixin's expression, Sandy suddenly realized something and quickly covered her neck with her hand."
"She was wearing pajamas with no collar, so she couldn't possibly hide those red marks."
"'Michael, sorry.' Sandy didn't know what else to say, so she could only apologize first."
"'Who is it?' Fang Zhixin asked coldly."
"After all, they hadn't yet said they were breaking up; they were still boyfriend and girlfriend."
"The deed was done; discussing reasons now is pointless. Fang Zhixin just wants to know who put that hat on him."
"'Michael, let's break up!'"
"'I'm asking you who that man is!' Fang Zhixin fiercely slammed the words in his hand onto the ground and roared at Sandy."
"Fortunately, his remaining rationality let him suppress the impulse and not lay a hand on Sandy."
"'Mr. Fang, good evening.'"
"Chen Mo, hearing the commotion at the door from the kitchen, thought it better to show his face, after all, he was the culprit."
"Fang Zhixin stared at Chen Mo in disbelief, then glanced at Sandy, and a surge of blazing anger rose to his head."
"He shoved Sandy aside, rushed into the house, and threw a punch at Chen Mo."
"Although Fang Zhixin is a police officer with decent skills, against Chen Mo he was completely inadequate."
"Chen Mo raised his hand to catch Fang Zhixin's fist, lifted his leg and kicked, directly sending Fang Zhixin flying out the doorway."
"'Mr. Fang, although you're a police officer, I was just acting in self-defense; don't accuse me of assaulting an officer.'"
"Fang Zhixin struggled to his feet from the ground, his eyes fierce as he looked at Chen Mo."
That kick just now injured him badly, and also calmed him down considerably.
Chen Mo, I'm the one who offended you; if you have anything, come at me, don't mess with my girlfriend.
Although Sandy had just mentioned breaking up with him, when he saw Chen Mo he felt Chen Mo had used means to force Sandy.
Otherwise, how would Sandy have gotten together with Chen Mo.
One is a top lawyer, one is a triad member, a short donkey.
Their statuses are worlds apart.
Even he, this Senior Inspector, sometimes feels unworthy of the 43-inch long-legged top lawyer Sandy; how could Sandy possibly take a liking to Chen Mo.
It must be Chen Mo using means to force, and it must be Chen Mo using means to force.
Sir Fang, don't spout blood and slander; I have no grudge with you.
Michael, this isn't Chen Mo's fault; it's my fault, I'm sorry to you. If you want to blame someone, blame me.
Sandy's words seemed to take the blame upon herself, but actually she stabbed Fang Zhixin hard in the chest.
Why? Do you know he's a triad member?
The cruel fact lay before him; he could no longer deceive himself.
But he just couldn't figure it out: why? Where exactly does he fall short of Chen Mo, for Sandy to be behind his back with Chen Mo.
Sandy also didn't know how to answer; she couldn't possibly say Chen Mo is well-endowed and skilled, making her unable to stop, could she?
Michael, this matter has nothing to do with him; it's just that we two are not suitable.
You want a virtuous wife and good mother, hoping to get promoted before marriage. But I cannot give up my job, nor can I tolerate your neglect of me due to work.
I originally planned to find a chance these days to bring up breaking up with you, but I didn't know what reason would make it easier for you to accept; today you bumped into me, which is also fine.
Let's leave it like that; don't come look for me anymore.
Having said that, Sandy quickly shut the door.
Fang Zhixin stood outside the door, staring blankly at the doorway; after a while, he turned and went downstairs.
In the end he never got a clear reason—how did he lose to Chen Mo!
Being cheated on by someone he looked down upon is really hard to accept.
