Chapter 309: Words Are More Pleasant Than Singing

Yi Zhonghai paused, looked around at everyone, then continued speaking:

I'm not speaking well of Shazhu.

Actually, I've been thinking about this since I came back; given Shazhu's nature, even if he deceives you, it's a kind deception.

Back when he was on a blind date, you... well, let's not talk about the past.

He was also worried you'd cause trouble and stop him from opening this restaurant.

He also wanted to earn more money, and he treats Bang Geng and them as his own kids, hoping they'll have a better future.

Having said that, he glanced at Bang Geng and went on:

Honestly, I really like this kid Bang Geng.

I've also thought that my house will eventually be left to him.

As for Shengli, he's got money and a house; he doesn't need mine.

But Bang Geng is different; if he had an extra house, his life would surely be better.

I've also thought that if Shazhu doesn't marry or if he marries you, his two houses would also go to Bang Geng.

Hearing this, Qin Huairu's family were all deeply moved.

They never thought Yi Zhonghai would be this kind.

Actually, only Qin Huairu knows why Yi Zhonghai did this.

Because Yi Zhonghai believed her words, he came to believe Bang Geng was his son.

Qin Huairu: "Thank you, Eldest Uncle, you've been really good to Bang Geng."

Bang Geng, why haven't you thanked your Eldest Uncle yet?

Bang Geng hastily rose, bowed to Yi Zhonghai, and said:

Eldest Uncle, thank you.

Yi Zhonghai waved his hand, saying, "Don't be so polite."

We've already said what we needed to say today.

I've just spoken my heart to you.

I think we shouldn't let Shazhu be with Teacher Ran for now.

You also must not offend Shazhu.

Don't force him to be with Teacher Ran or any other woman, alright?

Anyway, treat him now and in the future just as you did before.

Don't let him feel hurt.

Qin Huairu nodded and said, "Eldest Uncle, I think the same as you."

Of course, I'm not thinking about his house.

I just feel that people must learn to be grateful.

All these years, Shazhu has been helping our family.

Without Shazhu, I truly can't imagine how we'd have made it through these tough years.

So I also told the children just now that they must be grateful to Shazhu.

Even if Shazhu really ends up with Teacher Ran.

Yi Zhonghai nodded, satisfied, and said:

Huairu, I haven't misjudged you.

People just need to have a grateful heart.

Actually, Shazhu is also trying to hold his own.

He really doesn't want to see Xu Damao showing off in front of him all day.

If he didn't lie to you, could you, Qin Huairu, agree to her working with Teacher Ran?

Qin Huairu: "You're mistaken about that."

How could I disagree?

To put it bluntly, I have no relation with him.

Anyway, I don't want to think about anything now; let him do as he wishes.

Qin Huairu is certainly saying one thing but meaning another.

If Shazhu had said from the start that he wanted to open a restaurant with Ran Qiuyue, she would definitely try every means to stop it.

She would spare no means.

But in front of Yi Zhonghai, she certainly had to say nice things.

Upon hearing her words, Yi Zhonghai let out a muffled grunt in his heart and thought:

Your words are more pleasant than singing; you've become something, and I'm quite clear about it.

He knows Qin Huairu too well.

He wouldn't believe Qin Huairu's words.

If he hadn't believed Bang Geng was his son, he wouldn't have gotten close to Qin Huairu again.

He only thinks about retiring in peace and enjoying his later years; he won't think about anything else.

At first, Lin Shengli provided for his retirement, so he didn't want to get involved in Qin Huairu and Shazhu's affairs.

But after Qin Huairu told him that Bang Geng was his son, his mindset changed.

On one hand he hopes Lin Shengli will provide for his retirement; on the other hand he also wants to care for Bang Geng, such as leaving his house and property to Bang Geng.

On the other hand.

Xu Damao's home.

Liu Guangtian is still pleading with Xu Damao not to hold a grudge against Liu Haizhong.

Xu Damao snorted coldly, pointed at Liu Guangtian and asked:

"Do you know who I ran into today?"

Liu Guangtian was startled for a moment and retorted, "Who?"

Xu Damao: "Do you still remember Deputy Factory Director Li from our plant?"

Liu Guangtian nodded and said, "Of course I remember."

"Later, when things picked up, didn't he become a director?"

"He's my father's superior."

Xu Damao: "Right, that's him."

"He's now already a big boss."

Liu Guangtian: "Yo, really?"

Xu Damao nodded and said, "Hmm, when he heard, he said, I'm now doing business with your dad."

"He almost wouldn't have taken me along."

Liu Guangtian, upon hearing this, couldn't help but furrow his brows, then let out a light sigh, looked at Xu Damao and asked:

"So, you say that—are you planning to cooperate with him?"

Liu Guangtian felt a bit depressed.

Originally, their family was cooperating with Xu Damao, the business was going well and they had earned quite a lot of money.

But Xu Damao now wants to cooperate with someone else, does that mean he won't work with them anymore?

Then how will we make money in the future?

Xu Damao sneered coldly, saying, "People aim higher, brother."

"In the business world, if you want to make big money, you have to cooperate with people of this kind of strength, right?"

"All day long you hang with your dad, dealing with petty, trivial matters—when will that ever bring great wealth?"

Liu Guangtian thought for a moment, gave a flattering smile toward Xu Damao and said:

"Brother Xu, Boss Xu……"

Having said that, he poured a glass of water for Xu Damao, then, holding the cup, respectfully presented it to him, "I will follow you."

Xu Damao's mouth twitched slightly, asking, "And you?"

"What about the capital?"

He finished speaking.

He took the water from Liu Guangtian's hand.

Liu Guangtian: "So my dad's money, isn't that just the money of me and my younger brother?"

"My dad, that person, doesn't handle money; it's with my mom."

Upon hearing that, Xu Damao couldn't help but fall into thought.

Liu Guangtian continued, "As for my older brother, his performance over these years…"

"That completely broke my dad's and mom's hearts."

"So, my dad's money is basically just…"

"As long as Guangfu and I join forces, with my dad's temperament, he should just enjoy his old age at home."

"Besides, not earning a little money is also wrong, right?"

"Not earning is just wasting, right?"

"Since it's my dad's connected account, doesn't that become our connected account?"

"What do you think?"

Xu Damao nodded and said, "That's also right, makes sense."

"Guangtian, you and Guangfu have long since…"

"Since we were kids… hey, it's not every day, but it's almost the same, beating you every day, huh?"

"Talking about beating a filial son, look how you beat your brother—keep your distance, the farther the better."
