Chapter 9.14 — Billionaire wife running with the ball
That night, the Du family villa’s banquet hall.
The s.p.a.cious and luxurious banquet hall was filled with a variety of beautiful and delicious food. Several waiters and androids in uniforms shuttled through the crowd. The bright crystal chandelier on the ceiling dazzled Su Jianjun’s eyes.
“Elder Brother Su, I feel like I am dreaming now!”
A middle-aged fat man was sitting beside Su Jianjun holding a wine gla.s.s while looking at Su Jianjun, who was already drunk beside him, his chubby face full of envy: “Thanks to you, Big Brother Su, I have the opportunity in this life to eat such delicious things and drink such expensive red wine. Tsk tsk tsk, I didn’t expect this wine to be so powerful and delicious!”
Hearing the middle-aged fat man’s words, Su Jianjun waved his hand feebly: “These, these are just minor things! Let me tell you, my daughter, our Xiao Wan, she is the Du family’s Eldest Lady, you know? Do you know? The Du family’s money is her money and how much money does the Du family have? If I raise you guys, I wouldn’t be able to finish spending it all even if I raised you all for ten lifetimes~ hehe.”
Speaking till here, Su Jianjun narrowed his eyes again and was already admiring the beautiful women in the crowd at the other end of the room.
It must be said that today’s incident was caused by Su Jianjun alone. Yesterday, after he and Li Meijuan took Su Rui’s money, he naturally arrogantly “returned home”. The two found their old neighbors and relatives and invited them out for a big meal. Su Jianjun got drunk after gorging himself in food. After he was drunk, he started to habitually brag about how good the Du family was and how strong their influence was in the house.
At that time, some people ended up asking: Can you invite us for a visit to the Du house? Let us also see the legendary villa of the rich!
Hearing people flatter him like this, Su Jianjun naturally waved his hand: No problem! Isn’t it just having a tour around Du villa? I’ll take you there tomorrow! No one is allowed to leave! Everyone has to go!
After that……
It has become like this. In fact, after sobering up today, Su Jianjun regretted his promise last night after getting drunk, but a promise was a promise and he had already bragged. Now, he can only be driven onto a perch1. Fortunately, his son-in-law Du Han is really amazing! Not only did he let these messy people come in, but also prepared a banquet for them. The standards of the wine and dishes at the banquet were all made according to the standards of the Du family’s private dinner. Any cold dish was several times more expensive than those in five-star hotels!
In short, Su Jianjun now feels that he has face and is comfortable~
By past midnight, the banquet hall, which was originally noisy, gradually became quiet. Now, there were not many guests who could stand on their own two feet.
Most of them had drunk themselves unconscious and they could be seen everywhere; on the carpet, under the table, on the sofa, and even in the bathroom.
The Du villa has never been so disorderly since they moved in.
In the lobby, there were robots that already took charge of cleaning the place, while others were responsible for carrying these drunken guests to rest in another small villa dedicated for guests outside the main villa.
From beginning to end, Du Chen stood upstairs and watched all this with cold eyes. He saw Li Meijuan’s vanity and Su Jianjun’s greed and l.u.s.t.
Such a couple were actually Su Wan’s parents.
At this moment, he suddenly felt distressed for Su Wan——
If she didn’t have such a pair of parents who were greedy for money, would they have been able to stay together back then, never having to be separated and not having to go through so many twists and turns.
They would have gotten married and have their own children. The boy will definitely be as smart as Tiantian, and the girl……
Su Xiaosu’s face flashed in Du Chen’s mind. That face was simply too similar to Du Han.
Du Chen’s gaze immediately cooled down ——
In the past, he has no power to change now, but what about the future? What can he do? ……
That night, Du Chen could not sleep at all.
The next day, Du Chen got up a bit later than usual. When he went down to the dining room on the first floor, he saw Su Wan’s family, Du Han, Su Xiaosu, Ling Qiyue and Tiantian, all eating at the table. The atmosphere was friendly and harmonious.
“Good morning.”
Du Chen walked to the table and greeted softly, and then habitually sat in his own seat.
His appearance slightly changed the atmosphere at the table.
“I’m done.”
Little friend Ling Li was the first to leave the table and naturally, Ling Qiyue followed him.
Ling Li also thought a lot last night. He knew that he couldn’t blame his mother. If his mother didn’t love him, she wouldn’t have insisted on laboriously giving birth to him and even suffer bitter hardship to raise him.
Well, their life abroad wasn’t actually bad and it couldn’t be counted as ‘bitter hardship’? But in any case, mother must love him the most. Ling Li can be sure of this. So this morning when he woke up from the hospital bed and saw Ling Qiyue sleeping beside the bed, our little friend Ling Li had already decided to forgive her.
As for Du Chen?
Little friend Ling Li, who finally realized that his father was a sc.u.mbag, felt very sad. He couldn’t accept the setting of “My dad is a sc.u.mbag” for a while, so it was natural to have such a reaction when he saw Du Chen again.
Seeing the mother and son leave, Du Chen’s expression remained unchanged. His eyes lowered and he began to eat breakfast gracefully.
When he finished eating, Du Chen looked up at Su Rui – who was constantly by Su Wan’s side as well as constantly fawning over her – and said softly: “Big Brother, are you going to work with me today?”
“My son-in-law, do you also want to go to work at the Du clan?”
Hearing Du Chen’s question, the very first person to speak was Li Meijuan. Although Du Han was also the Eldest Young Master of the Du family and had an inexhaustible amount of money, people’s desires and greed were endless. Who in China didn’t know how well-off Du Chen was?
Both were the sons of the Du family and Du Han was the eldest. If it weren’t for Du Han’s solemn face and strong aura, Li Meijuan would have urged him to fight with Du Chen for the family property.
“En.”
Hearing Li Meijuan’s question, Su Rui just nodded slightly and then raised his eyes to look at Du Chen again: “If the company can transfer the ownership today, I will go to the company with you to have a look.”
“Dad.”
Su Xiaosu saw that Su Rui was about to go to work and couldn’t help holding his arm affectionately: “Dad, I want to go to your company to play too, can you take me there?”
“Okay.”
Su Rui responded with a smile. Now that Su Xiaosu’s affairs and her ident.i.ty are no secret, Su Rui now need not care about other people’s eyes at all.
When Du Chen left the villa with Su Rui and Su Xiaosu, Li Meijuan and Su Jianjun immediately gathered in front of Su Wan again: “Daughter, you and Du Han are also famous and well-known now. When will you get the marriage license?”
“Marriage license?”
Su Wan blinked: “It was done yesterday.”
In this world, getting a marriage certificate could be done with taking 3D projection photos without personally going to the office and with Du Han’s ident.i.ty, he didn’t need to go through all that trouble.
Hearing that their daughter and Du Han were legally married, the couple immediately nodded in satisfaction.
“Xiao Wan, since you are also a member of the Du family now, you should also have your own career! A man’s heart changes when he says it changes. A woman can’t rely on a man for a lifetime, she must rely on herself! Look at how rich and powerful the Du family is. I heard that they also have a chain of beauty salons under their umbrella. Mom thinks that this is pretty good and it’s not worth much in Du Han’s eyes. You can ask for that chain and run it yourself. What do you think?”
“I am not interested in beauty and I don’t have time.”
Su Wan leaned back lazily on the sofa. Guarding the Du family – this diamond mine of a family – and not having to worry about food and clothing. Why would she go out to work on her own volition?
Su Xiaowan felt that it would be fine to be a rice worm in this world for a lifetime. 2
Even if the Du family was gone in the future, she will still have General Su, so she didn’t need to worry about anything.
“You have no time, but I have it! I can help.”
Hearing Su Wan’s answer, Li Meijuan couldn’t help pointing to herself: “Xiao Wan, mom is here, rest a.s.sured!”
Rest a.s.sured?
It’s because you guys are here that I really don’t feel a.s.sured.
“After speaking so much, you actually want a beauty salon, right? Isn’t the money Du Han gave you both not enough to open one by yourselves? If you’re not opening one, you can buy one at a high price!”
Su Wan couldn’t help sitting up straight, looking at Li Meijuan and Su Jianjun in front of her: “I’ll tell you guys this one last time. If you are short of money, you can ask me and Du Han for it. You only need to eat, drink and be merry. Don’t think of fighting for the Du family and don’t have any extra crooked thoughts! Otherwise…… even your own daughter will not be able to save you!”
She let the couple stay and gave them a life of luxury, but it was because she occupied their daughter’s body. All of this was to show respect to the original owner. If they really can’t tell good from bad and cause trouble, Su Wan will absolutely not be soft-hearted……
