Was Aquaman’s ex-husband cremated today?

Chapter 217: Accidents may happen if you get too close

For several days in a row, Li Qingwen didn't wait for Louise to come to his house. When he called her, she did answer the phone, but her words gave the signal that she no longer had the money to invest in low-interest financial products.

It seems that it has been harvested by Huayun Investment Bank.

Greed is human nature. Faced with a trustworthy identity like Zhou Yongan and convinced by historical investment data, it is not surprising that Louise shifted the battlefield.

Relatively speaking, Kevin is more vulnerable than her at this moment.

Thinking of the favor he had shown him by introducing the client to him first, Li Qingwen felt that he needed to comfort this friend.

……

Zhou Xixiang has been in contact with Yu Yin for more than two months, but the good news between the Zhou and Yu families has not been announced yet.

The old lady threw away the newspaper in her hand.

The second brother has been back for so long, but he hasn't thought of coming over to say hello to her. It seems that he is still angry with her for what happened at the beginning of the year.

This bastard can already do without her as his grandmother.

Outside the door, Aunt Lan walked in quickly, followed by Zhou Xixiang with a gloomy face.

The two men walked through the front hall and along the corridor straight to the pond in the courtyard.

The old lady sat on a stone bench by the pond, casually scattering the fish feed in her hand.

There were dozens of black and red carps in the pond, and they were flying around with their mouths open, trying their best to fight for a bite of food.

The small fish's body is more flexible and agile, and it can climb onto the big fish with a single leap. It can snatch food from the big fish better than the big fish, but the price it pays is also greater, as it runs the risk of being bitten by the big fish.

"Grandma, are you used to living alone?" Zhou Xixiang asked as he approached.

When his parents suddenly decided to move to Qinyuan, he thought his mother had another conflict with his grandmother, but later he learned that it was his father's own decision.

After my father moved to Qinyuan, he had a talk with him, saying that it was inconvenient to continue talking about company matters in front of my grandmother, and that my grandmother should not continue to interfere in the company's business.

Listening to her grandson's condolences, the old lady said proudly without even raising her head: "How can I not be used to living in my own home? Don't think that I'm lonely just because your parents moved out. Your Grandpa Yu comes to me every day on crutches to drink tea. I can't even ask for peace and quiet."

The old lady was too proud and arrogant to admit the slightest sense of disappointment.

It was obvious that she was sighing while sitting in the restaurant for three meals a day, and Aunt Lan described grandma's condition clearly.

Zhou Xixiang didn't want to expose it, so he didn't ask any more questions. He waited quietly on the side, his eyes fixed on the water surface that was surging due to the movement of the fish.

"The daughter of the Yu family has been put in solitary confinement recently. Do you know what happened?" The old lady was sitting at home, paying close attention to all information from the outside world.

Upon hearing this, Zhou Xixiang walked to the stone bench and sat down.

After a moment of silence, he said, "Yu Yin has a boyfriend. They dated for four years in college. A few days ago, she was planning to elope with her boyfriend, but was caught by Uncle Yu halfway."

Zhou Xixiang was told about Yu Yin's boyfriend when he met her for the first time, and later found out that it was true.

The old lady raised her eyebrows, her cloudy pupils revealing a shrewd look: "What do you think?"

A few bird calls were heard in the empty courtyard.

Zhou Xixiang's eyes fell on the sparrows circling freely in the tree, and he made a prompt decision: "I will come forward and make things clear with Uncle Yu, and forget about the marriage."

"What are you talking about?" The old lady said sternly, "It's the parents' order and the matchmaker's words. Yu Yin has no say over what she wants. As long as Yu Hongxing wants this marriage, you have to do what you have to do."

Zhou Xixiang still remembered what Yu Yin said in front of him last time when she asked him to stay away from her. For a girl like this who already had someone in her heart, even if he married her into the family, he was afraid that she would live in resentment for the rest of her life.

"Grandma, Yu Yin has a strong personality and extreme mentality. I'm worried that someone might die if this continues, so I can't listen to you on this matter." Zhou Xixiang stood up.

The old lady frowned and raised her eyes: "Keep calm! Yu Hongxing is the third largest shareholder of Huayu. You know very well that he is the best card for the Zhou family now!"

From the very beginning, the marriage was discussed for the sake of equity, because there was only Mr. Yu, the only daughter in the family, and in the future the equity would definitely be inherited by his daughter and son-in-law.

As for the 5% or 4% in the hands of others, they all have male children in their families, so they will not get any benefits even if they marry into the other party.

Zhou Xixiang has decided to sacrifice his own happiness for the sake of equity recovery. As a businessman, he may not need to consider the losses of others too much, but deep down he is a kind person.

If Yu Yin was forced into this marriage and had clearly refused, he would not have turned a blind eye and continued to force her to sacrifice with him.

Zhou Xixiang corrected: "The best card has always been Xiaowen."

The old lady glanced at her grandson sharply and pursed her thin lips.

"Xixiang, I'm talking to you now." The old lady loved him and didn't want to make him angry.

Zhou Xixiang said, "The current situation is relatively stable, but if it continues like this, if Yu Yin makes a mistake, the media will swarm in and criticize the Zhou family for the sake of equity. By then, Huayu and the Zhou family's reputation will be completely ruined."

The old lady's face turned serious when she heard this. She knew very well that this generation was no longer the same as theirs. They believed in free love and equality between father and son and did not buy into the idea that "the elders have the final say".

If anything happened to the daughter of the Yu family, the outside world would say that the Zhou family was feudal, autocratic, greedy and crazy.

"Have I met you since Yongan came back these days?" The old lady said with a stern face, trying to change the subject.

She stood up, walked to the edge of the pool with a hunched back, and poured all the feed in her hand into the pool.

The fish were instantly piled up together in a dense mass.

Zhou Xixiang had already noticed the newspaper on the stone table: "He was busy making money as soon as he came back, and he hasn't taken care of it yet. It's a good thing that he can focus on Huayun."

"I think everything he does is known to everyone, but I'm afraid it's just a lot of noise with little results." The old lady was prejudiced.

Zhou Xixiang: "In just half a year, Yongan has completed six IPO projects of varying sizes. As soon as he came back, he grabbed the limelight in the domestic financial circle. Now, both clients and peers are focusing on him."

The old lady reminded: "Don't let your brother's ambition grow. No matter how capable he is, he is not as good as you."

Zhou Xixiang sighed softly and said nothing.

The old lady returned to the stone bench and picked up the cold tea on the table: "How is Xiaowen doing in the company? I heard that he has become addicted to smoking and drinking, and is more eloquent than before."

Zhou Xixiang: "As a vice president, she has to attend social events. She hasn't said anything about it. She has done everything to her satisfaction. There is nothing to say."

The old lady said, "She is very close to Liang Chaosheng's son. Do you think that kind of situation will happen?"

Kevin and Xiaowen are now indeed a couple, and they can be seen at many events.

Zhou Xixiang looked gloomy and said calmly, "Both of you are single. Even if neither of you has made it clear, it's easy for accidents to happen if you get too close."

The old lady frowned.

After Zhou Xixiang left the old house, he called Lao Yu on the way.

When I returned to the company, Lao Zhang, who was in charge of administrative field work, was sending Tong Xiao out of Huayu.

The two people looked at each other, and Tong Xiao's expression suddenly tightened. He avoided his gaze, did not say hello to Zhou Xixiang, and continued to leave Huayu.

Zhou Xixiang stopped where he was, paused for a few seconds, then walked back into the hall.
