Two months later.
Hai City Telecom was finally independent from Hua’s Group and formed a whole new company named Lanhai Telecom with Lanhai Technology. And I became the chairman and CEO of the new company. The company’s preparation for being listed to stock market was officially put on the agenda.
This was a gift from Leon. He said that he didn’t want me to live behind him all the time. So he gave me the company as a platform for me to show my talent. If I was successful with with the business, he shall rule the world with me, lose with me to make a comeback.
It’s ridiculous to think about it. Isn’t this something a woman should say to a man? Now it turned out to be what Leon told me.
But I like this arrangement. It’s not that I am greedy for wealth and power. I just want to be independent. I don’t want to be a housewife who only knows about cooking and housekeeping. The profession of housewife is the most dangerous and insecure profession in the world.
Because this kind of profession is not independent and relies too much on men. When a man gets tired, he can let others replace you at any time. Only by being independent can people remain competitive and have the ability to change an environment.
Many departments of the new company needed coordination for various new arrangement, and the workload was huge. After fighting for a week, I can finally take a breath and rest at home for a weekend.
I didn’t want to get up that day, staying in bed until noon, still didn’t want to get up.
After Ms Zhen called me twice, she stopped calling me. The strange thing was Leon went out early in the morning and never came back. I didn’t know if he went to work or went to get fresh fish.
After lingering on the bed for a while, I felt I had to get up.
It was early winter, and it was cold when I got up. For I slept for a long time I was feeling a little uncomfortable.
So I wore sportswear and prepared to run for a while. To make yourself mentally fit.
Maybe I was too tired recently and after only ten minutes running, I was sweating profusely, so I stopped for a while, and then continued running.
Finally I insisted on running for half an hour, then went upstairs to take a bath, changed into dry clothes, and felt relaxed and mentally better.
There was a sound of a car at this time. I went to the balcony to find that it was Leon’s car.
He didn’t get out of the car with the fish, but dragged a suitcase out of the trunk. Then he carried it upstairs.
“Where did you go this morning? Still dragging a suitcase back?” I asked him.
“I was going on a business trip, but the flight was delayed, so I am not going there. There was a bag in the back seat of my car. I forgot to take it. Go get it for me.”
“You’re going on a business trip and don’t tell me? You go get it yourself. I just finished running and I am a little tired.” I said.
He reached out his hand to touch my head, “Why are you so lazy, go get it for me, hurry!”
It’s really strange that he didn’t ask Ms Zhen to help him take it. He insisted on me to take it. There was no way, so I had to agree.
I walked downstairs slowly and walked to his car. And then I opened the back seat door.
There was no bag like he said in the car, but there was a person in it, a boy.
He was wearing a red sports suit and a baseball cap on his head. Under his thick eyebrows were large eyes as beautiful as black gems. A little boy with red lips and white teeth, as beautiful as a carved jade.
“Mom.” After I looked at him for ten seconds, he gave a soft cry.
As if I was dreaming, I forgot to answer him and just stared at him blankly. Happiness came to me so suddenly, I became blank at that moment.
He got out of the car and looked up at me, “Mom, don’t you say something to me? I am Alex.”
I was just too excited to say a word to him
I squatted down, hugged him tightly, and found myself in tears.
At this time, Leon came over, “How about, let you help me get things, is there a surprise?”
“Mom, how are you? I miss you very much.” Alex said in my ear.
“Mom is fine, I just miss you.”
I looked at his face slowly with tears, but it didn’t change much, it was just a lot older than before. After taking off some baby fat, it looks more heroic.
“Mom, I don’t want to go to the United States anymore, I want to stay with you here. I don’t want to be abroad alone.”
“Don’t go, don’t go. You’ll be by your mother’s side from now on. You won’t go anywhere!.”
Ms Zhen ran over, watching Alex with tears in her eyes. I can see that she wants to hug Alex, but she dare not.
“Alex, hug Aunt Zhen.” I said to Alex.
Alex walked over obediently, and Ms Zhen flushed with excitement, “Little boy, you are back, I really miss you…”
She said that tears ran in her eyes. Alex hugged her neck gently, “Aunt Zhen, I miss you too.”
“Aunt Zhen has prepared a lot of delicious dishes for you, and you will have to eat more later.”
Listening to what Ms Zhen said, she also knew that Alex was coming back. She just cooperated with Leon to hide it from me, so she gave me a surprise.
Next, Ms Zhen and Leon began to prepare lunch, and I chatted with Alex. We haven’t seen each other for so long time, but we are still the closest relationship. He talked about his experience abroad and what he learned.
My Alex is already a person who has seen the world before. At a young age, I am surprised by his sensibility. The child’s independence can really speeds up his growth, but it is a bit distressing.
It’s lunch time, and the dishes were really rich. Alex was very enjoyable, and he said everything was delicious.
Alex was back, and I was in a good mood and ate very well. But Leon asked me to eat less.
This is a bit disappointing. I eat well, but he asks me to eat less. What is this?
“So why you stop me eating more?” I was annoyed.
“No, we are going to take wedding photos tomorrow. If You have to eat too much, and your belly will not look good at that time, so I suggest you eat less. If you are upset, you can just let it go.” Leon laughed.
“Wedding photos?”
“I have always wanted to make up a wedding for you. I have been waiting for Alex to come back. The time has not been ripe. Now that Alex is back, everything is perfect.”
“Okay, okay, mom and dad are getting married.” Alex clapped excitedly from the side.
“You haven’t discussed this with me before. I’m not mentally prepared at all.”
“We are already old husband and wife, Do you want me to propose you once more?” Leon said.
I said that is not necessary. If you propose to marry me again, I may agree to it.
“Then it is thus decided, this time, there will be a couple of newlyweds with us, you guess who are they?” Leon asked me.
I thought for a while, but couldn’t figure it out. Most of our friends have children. Where are the ones who are not married?
“I can’t figure it out.”
“It’s Mu Chen and Ying Hua.”
This surprised me very much, “It turned out that it was the two of them. Wouldn’t they never be able to be together? They are going to get married?”
After eating, Alex was supposed to sleep with jet lag, but the little guy refused to sleep and wanted to see his aunt, so I had to take him.
Ying Hua was still at work, and she hugged Alex and kissed him. She was too excited to see Alex.
Meantime, Mu Chen also came. He came for bringing Lunch to Ying Hu, a great lunch he made by himself.
Ying Hua didn’t want to go to work, saying that she wanted to take Alex to see movies, eat desserts, and buy various gifts for Alex. I think Alex is happy, but it’s hard to refuse her and let them go crazy.
Mu Chen kept smiling. When there was a time gap, I asked him how he obtained Ying’s forgiveness. He smiled and said that he would not mention this matter again.
The more he said not to mention it, the more curious I became. Because there is a deadly heart knot between them, that is, Mu Chen once pushed Ying Hua down the cliff. This knot has been hindering them from getting along with each other and cannot be resolved. How did Ying Hua pardon Mu this time?
“Don’t say it, don’t say it, it’s all over, I am sorry for her.” Mu Chen still refused to say it, and I had to give it up.
But my curiosity was still uncontrollable, and later I took time to ask Ying Hua why she chose to forgive Mu Chen and marry him.
“I actually wanted to tell you about this a long time ago, and I have never had a chance. You are my best friend, so you have to know. I also hope to tell Leon through your mouth.” Ying Hua said.
“Okay, I won’t talk nonsense.” Seeing her expression so solemnly, I became a little nervous.
“I only got my driver’s license that year. I was very happy. I was going to practice driving the car and my mother accompanied me. As a result, I was too nervous and didn’t make correct operation. The car capsized down the cliff. My mother was washed away by the river and been missing. I asked for help from Mu, and then he arrived. I almost collapsed on the spot, and I didn’t want to admit that it was I who killed my mother, so I got severe depression. Then I started to make up stories to lie to myself, saying that I fell down the cliff by Mu Chen, and said my mother didn’t go out with me. After I told this story hundreds of times, I almost believed it myself. Later, after hypnosis and other methods, I almost accepted such a memory.”
I was stunned, this was something I can’t quite understand. But I believe this is true.
“In order to make me feel better, Mu Chen later admitted that he personally pushed me down the cliff. In this way, he became the enemy of all of us. I was suffering from severe depression at the time, similar to mental illness, but he was even sober. Yes, he admitted that he did it just for me. I actually think of the truth occasionally, but then I will have a bad headache.”
I knew that Ying Hua had suffered from headache for many years, but I just didn’t expect that there was such a story behind it.
“But the fact is the fact after all. Over the passed years, I am much better. I accepted the cruel reality and decided not to escape. That’s it.” Ying Hua said.
I didn’t know what to say for a while, just sighed, “Mu Chen is not an easy person, he is the most affectionate person I have ever seen in the world.”
…
A week later, Leon held a wedding here for the second time on the lawn in front of the Hua family.
The first time the bride was Ruoxin Chen but this time the bride was me.
In order to prevent someone from stealing Leon away like I did, I specially invited Jiannan to be the ‘security captain’ at the wedding site and let him be responsible for security work.
He was very disdainful of my arrangement, saying that with his appearance, he can compare the groom Leon as the best man, but I let him do this kind of hard work, which was totally bullying him.
Although feeling unhappy, he still took the job. I thanked him very much.
The guests arrived, and almost all the celebrities in Hai City came. I took my second brother’s hand, and he slowly led me to Leon.
“Miss Nan Su, would you like to marry Mr. Leon Hua? No matter whether you are rich or poor, no matter whether you are sick or healthy, no matter whether you are happy or sad, will you always follow him and never leave him?” the emcee asked me.
“I am willing.” I answered with a smile.
“Mr. Leon, would you like to marry Miss Nan Su, regardless of wealth or poverty, regardless of disease or health, regardless of happiness or sorrow, will you always protect her and never leave her?” the emcee asked again.
“I don’t want to.” Leon said suddenly.
My head banged and I stared at Leon blankly. The audience also were shocked hearing this, everyone was staring at Leon, and some guests began to whisper.
“I don’t want her to be rich or poor. I give her wealth. I don’t want her disease. I want her to be healthy. I don’t want her to be sad. I give her happiness. I don’t want her forever. I want to love her forever.” Leon stared at me and said.
There was thunderous applause from the audience and cheers rang out.
He even dared to play such a heart-beating scene at this time, almost scaring me to death.
I punched him and said, “Why don’t you tell me about this design?”
The emcee took the opportunity to stir up the atmosphere, “Hey, the bride has done it. Let’s see how the groom respond?”
Leon moved quickly, hugged me, and suddenly pressed his lips on mine. I could’t dodge it at all.
Amidst the cheers, I heard the sound of fireworks exploding into the sky.
His kiss was very strong, lasting for a long time, and he never let go of me…
(This is End of the Whole Story)
