Chapter 86 Are You Lying Through Your Teeth and Boasting?
She then carried the glass of water back to the dining table and put it in front of Chen Yihao.
Suddenly, Wang Qian bantered and said, "Sir, madam, what kind of great business that Yihao's brother-in-law is doing now?"
Ugh...
They were asked all of a sudden.
Both Liu Xueqin and Chen Jianguo were soon stunned.
Doing a great business?
That guy, who was an alcoholic and gambling addict?
What a joke!
Previously, the amount of more than three hundred thousand in the bank card was most probably... No... He must have won that through gambling.
A gambling addict like that could not keep his money for long. How could he be engaged in doing business?
"Xiao Qian, why did you suddenly ask that?"
Chen Yinuo was the one who raised such a query.
But while she was talking, her gaze was filled with a tinge of doubt.
"Well, I poured a glass of water for Yihao just now, right? I heard your husband talking to some kind of General Manager Xiao on the balcony. He then said that it's ten million per building. It's a total of 6.6 hundred million. He won't sell them or negotiate with them if there's a penny less. Isn't that a great business? It's a business deal that's over hundreds of millions. Ha! Ha!"
Wang Qian said so in an extremely playful manner.
Hearing that, Chen Yinuo soon felt greatly ashamed.
She had lost face!
What was Ye Chen, that bastard, doing?
And Liu Xueqin soon became angry as she spat out.
"Pooh!"
She pointed at the balcony and said angrily, "He? And hundreds of millions? He's a useless gambling addict who always lies through his teeth and boasts excessively. One can't trust his words at all. Xiao Qian, if it's not for your sake today, I would have long turned the table over and asked him to get lost!"
"Madam, don't say that. He's your son-in-law and Yihao's brother-in-law no matter what, right?" Forcing a smile, Wang Qian made the situation worse.
"Humph!" Chen Jianguo snorted. "Son-in-law? We never regard him as our son-in-law. We don't have such a son-in-law like that either!"
Liu Xueqin said, "Xiao Qian, you don't have to regard him seriously. Just pretend that he's not there!"
"Humph! I see. It's a business deal of hundreds of millions. How nice it'll be if I ask him to sponsor some money and let Yihao and me get a bigger wedding house! I think he deliberately said that for me!" Wang Qian became more sarcastic now.
Chen Yinuo, who was utterly embarrassed, could not listen to that anymore.
She got up and walked to the balcony.
At that time, Ye Chen happened to have just hung up his phone.
On the other end of the phone, Xiao Qiang indignantly claimed that he was being unreasonable since he had asked for a price of 6.6 hundred million.
Luckily, he did not bother to say anymore, so he hung up his phone.
When he turned around, he coincidentally saw Chen Yinuo walk toward him.
"What's the matter?"
Ye Chen could not help asking when he saw Chen Yinuo's strange and complicated expression.
Chen Yinuo lowered her voice. "Did you lie through your teeth and boast recklessly?"
"What lie did I tell? What did I boast about?" Ye Chen was puzzled.
"Wang Qian went and got a glass of water just now. She heard you talk to some kind of General Manager Xiao and something about ten million or 6.6 million. What are you doing? Did you purposely boast about that and let Wang Qian hear you? What is it for?" asked Chen Yinuo.
"Ugh... Why did I have to boast about that? Do I have to do so? I didn't know she came. What is that about ten million or 6.6 million? She must have heard me wrongly!" Ye Chen appeared innocent, and his acting skills might win him an Oscar award.
But he was vexed deeply. He truly did not expect Wang Qian had heard what he had just said.
"Are you sure?" Chen Yinuo asked, frowning.
"Do I have to do that?" asked Ye Chen.
"Alright, it's fine!"
Only then did Chen Yinuo turn around and go back.
"Dad, mom, I'm full!"
Seeing that her parents had come back, Youyou raised her little hands and shouted, smiling.
"If you're full, hurry up and get lost!"
Not only did Liu Xueqin dislike Ye Chen and Chen Yinuo, but as Ye Youyou's grandmother, she seemed to have started to dislike Ye Youyou too.
Chen Yihao immediately said in dissatisfaction, "Mom, how could you say that? You're over the line!"
After he had said that, he said to Ye Youyou, "Youyou, come. Come to your uncle!"
Ye Youyou averted her gaze and looked at Chen Yihao, her uncle, and Liu Xueqin, her grandmother.
But she did not move in the end.
"Dad, mom, Yihao, Xiao Qian, we're leaving!"
Chen Yinuo had gotten used to Liu Xueqin, her mother's attitude. She said so lightly.
After she had said that, she smiled and looked at Chen Yihao. "Yihao, tell me when your wedding date is decided. If there's anything you need help with, don't hesitate to tell me!"
"We'll see about that, sister!" Chen Yihao's smile became bitter.
Frankly, his desire to get married had plummeted after Wang Qian had raised a series of requests.
In the depths of his heart, the persistence of his love for Wang Qian had started to waver invisibly.
He could not help but think, "Is she indeed the person I want to spend my life with?"
Ye Chen and his family left.
It was as if they had never been there.
But the few pairs of chopsticks and bowls on the table seemed to indicate that they were just there to eat for free.
They had just left.
Before long, Wang Qian, who had become the daughter-in-law of the Chen family, also wanted to leave.
The different thing was that Chen Yihao was the only one who sent Ye Chen and his family to the elevator when they left.
But when Wang Qian was leaving, both Chen Jianguo and Liu Xueqin forcefully dragged Chen Yihao along to send Wang Qian to the downstairs of the building together.
They only averted their gazes and went upstairs to go home after they saw Wang Qian get into an app-based cab.
"Now I'm relieved. When Xiao Qian gives me her birthday and time of birth, we'll pick the date based on you guys' birthdays. I hope that a good day will not be too late!"
Liu Xueqin sat on the sofa. She then looked up at the ceiling longingly and smiled brightly as she said so.
She then turned around to look at Chen Yihao. "Yihao, you and Xiao Qian have to hurry up after your marriage. Your dad and I yearn for a grandson very much!"
Unexpectedly...
Chen Yihao, who appeared listless, shook his head. "I don't want to get married anymore!"
"What the hell?"
"Bastard, what did you say?"
Both Chen Jianguo and Liu Xueqin got out of the sofa at the same time.
"I've thought it through. I indeed can't serve such a woman well, who always puts on airs. I don't have that capability! Dad, mom, I know that they have compensated you guys more than four hundred thousand other than the resettlement house during the demolition back then. But four hundred thousand seems unable to satiate the terms mentioned by Wang Qian. So, you guys want to use the amount of more than three hundred thousand that you gained from Ye Chen.
"Ha! Ha! You guys are going to exhaust your pension money to let me marry in addition to the money that you snatched away from Ye Chen as well as the savings that you've saved up all these years. You guys even have to buy a Mercedes-Benz for us. Then you guys have to repay the car loan slowly given your old ages...
"If words get out about this, how embarrassing it'll be for me? How will others criticize me? Even if it's not spread out, and even if only God and our family know about it, I can't bring myself to do that. I can't do that. I can't depend on my parents like this! I've thought it through. It's fine if Wang Qian wants or doesn't want to marry me. If she insists upon such a condition, I'll let her go and forget about it!
"You guys don't have to worry. I can survive without Wang Qian. I can also look for another girlfriend and let you guys enjoy happiness with your grandson!"
Chen Yihao did not say that out of spite that time around.
He said those words sincerely and earnestly.
It was fine no matter how humble he had to be in any issues regarding Wang Qian. He could take it.
But if he had to let his parents exhaust everything and act humbly that way, he indeed could not accept that.
"You bastard! How could you say such nonsense when things have come to this state? Yihao, let me tell you. I've accepted Xiao Qian thoroughly. I want her to be my daughter-in-law. If you don't marry her, I... I'll kill myself!"
Liu Xueqin pointed at Chen Yihao and said indignantly, hopping mad.
"No. She raised so many requests. She wants to exhaust all your money. Why are you on her side? How did she bewitch you?" Chen Yihao was puzzled.
"I don't care. In short, I've regarded Xiao Qian as my daughter-in-law. I'll accept no one else!" Liu Xueqin became anxious.
However, Chen Yihao was unaware of something.
Liu Xueqin thought that she would be able to gain prestige and dignity as the mother-in-law if they were able to make Wang Qian a part of their family...
She then thought of Wang Qian, her future daughter-in-law. Wang Qian was pretty with a charming body. She even worked at a large company with a decent job.
Liu Xueqin would not miss that no matter what!
In the Mercedes-Benz G-Class.
"After I've thought it through, I shouldn't have let you come along!"
Sitting in the back seat, Chen Yinuo said so.
"Why did you say that?" Smiling, Ye Chen asked her.
"I just wanted to see if we can remedy your relationship with Yihao, so I let you come along. But after thinking about it carefully, we can look for other options if we want to remedy your relationship with Yihao. We don't necessarily have to go to my home and let my parents show us such an attitude," said Chen Yinuo, shaking her head.
It could be seen that she still cared very much about what Wang Qian and her parents had said at the dining table.
"Have your parents ever shown me a good attitude during these years? I've long gotten used to that, right?" said Ye Chen in an open-minded manner.
Then he changed the topic all of a sudden. "Let's not talk about that. Is Yihao going to marry Wang Qian?"
"It's final. I know that there's a compensation of more than four hundred thousand other than a resettlement house during the demolition back then. In addition to your money that is more than three hundred thousand, and the money my parents have saved, it's just enough to pay for the bride price, the house, and the down payment for the car!" After being in a trance for a while, Chen Yinuo sighed.
"You don't like Wang Qian very much, right?" asked Ye Chen again.
"It's not important whether I like her or not. The key lies in Yihao. Yihao is very loyal to her. He's generally stubborn, and he says cruel words. But actually, I know that he always obeys Wang Qian's words and grants everything she wants. As for my parents, they dream of seeing Yihao marry Wang Qian. So, I can only keep it to my heart even if I think that Wang Qian is unsuited for Yihao. I'll be sinful if I raise more remarks!" said Chen Yinuo.
"That's true!" Ye Chen nodded thoughtfully.
He then ceased talking about that kind of insignificant gossip. He looked at the girl from the rear-view mirror. Smiling, he then said, "Youyou, I'm gonna take you to the amusement park. What do you think?"
Ye Youyou was originally sleepy. When she heard of the amusement park, she soon became energetic.
She instantly leaped up. "Wow, is it true? Thank you, dad! Thank you, dad!"
"Of course, it's true. I'll ride a merry-go-round and drive a bumper car with you!"
When Chen Yinuo saw the smile on the father and daughter's faces, the vexation she had felt when she was at her home had soon disappeared.
She revealed a sincere smile.
At the same time, in the headquarters building of Henda Group.
The vice president in charge of developing resources appeared in Liu Zhuo's office, who was another vice president.
Although both of them were vice presidents, Liu Zhuo was the chief who was in charge of building the commercial territory in the suburbs that time around.
He was also Xu Jia, the chairman's absolute confidant.
"Something went wrong with the purchase of Jin Zhong Village!"
The moment Xiao Qiang entered the place, she said so immediately.
At first, she wanted to try her best to resolve that issue. At worst, she had to provide a relatively suitable resolution before she went to ask about Xu Jia, the chairman's guidance.
But she did not expect that he would be so greedy.
The exorbitant price had long exceeded her expectation.
Consequently, Xiao Qiang could not help but look for Liu Zhuo to discuss countermeasures.
