Chapter 62: Face slapping + Not because he is Shen Yijin’s partner. (Part 1)
When Jing Xun came out after changing his clothes, he faintly felt that other people’s expressions had changed when they saw him. But it didn’t matter, Jing Xun had just reached an agreement with sir and was feeling quite elated in his heart, so he didn’t care much about those small details.
Horse riding was pretty fascinating. Although he had never ridden a horse before, there was a professional coach and Shen Yijin present, so Jing Xun took a few laps on the court with ease.
In the evening, Shen Yijin and Jing Xun declined President Nie’s invitation and did not stay for dinner.
They had more important things to do.
They drove all the way back to Yiwei Technology building, where they were about to receive the father of the original owner.
Yan Guangzhuo called in the afternoon, asking to meet up with Jing Xun. Jing Xun had already discussed with Shen Yijin about the matter regarding the Yan family, so after receiving the call, he directly invited Yan Guangzhuo to Yiwei Technology for a talk.
Although Yan Guangzhuo did not know why he offered to meet at the technology company, as everyone knew, Yiwei was founded by Shen Yijin. He originally wanted to get in touch with Shen Yijin through Jing Xun, but now this kind of opportunity had come, there was no reason to refuse.
As soon as he entered the building of Yiwei Technology, Yan Guangzhuo was led into the elevator by a young woman in professional attire.
She claimed to be President Shen’s secretary and her surname was Mi.
Secretary Mi was tall and had long legs. She was well-spoken and behaved appropriately, looking calm and professional.
Yan Guangzhuo started from scratch all the way, working hard in the field of building materials and real estate. Although he made some money, he was at most a local tycoon. The people who followed him were all brawny and reckless burly men. How could he have seen such a female secretary with a good look and temperament. He couldn’t help but yearn for the next trip even more.
Yan Guangzhuo couldn’t help asking: “This entire building is owned by President Shen? Is it rented or bought?”
Secretary Mi was very professional. She just smiled when facing the question, and didn’t talk to him too much.
When they arrived at the president’s office, Secretary Mi knocked on the door first, and then politely said to him: “President Shen is inside, please.”
Yan Guangzhuo: !
He made an appointment with his son, but unexpectedly it was President Shen that he met!
Originally because Yan Zhengbo hit a wall1碰壁[pèng bì]: Metaphor of being hindered or rejected. It also means that things do not work out or the purpose is not achieved. with Yan Jingxun, he thought that his son hated him and would not be willing to recommend him. He was indeed ready to play emotional cards and a prolonged battle with Yan Jingxun.
Unexpectedly, things turned out to be much smoother than he thought!
Yan Guangzhuo excitedly pushed open the door of the president’s office. He really saw President Shen sitting behind the large desk.
——President Shen was still very recognizable. About a year and a half ago, Yan Guangzhuo met him from a distance at a year-end real estate summit, and he had been deeply impressed ever since.
At a glance, he recognized the tall and handsome man behind the desk as Shen Yijin… Yan Guangzhuo hurriedly walked in.
He tried to step forward, but felt that it was a bit wrong to go in without being invited. So he stood near the door and greeted Shen Yijin: ” President Shen, hello.”
He was clearly in his fifties this year, but when he saw Shen Yijin he still couldn’t help using honorific title2He used 您[nín], the same as pronoun “you” but used when respectfully addressing someone..
Hearing the sound, Shen Yijin raised his head from the tablet on the desk, stood up politely, and said to Yan Guangzhuo: “Mr. Yan, come and sit down.”
The position he pointed to was the chair opposite the desk.
This office was very large. If the purpose was simply to receive guests, they should have sat on the modular sofa near the window. Sitting on the chair opposite the desk usually meant business talk…
He had no idea whether he was right or not, but Yan Guangzhou’s mood was getting more and more nervous.
It took almost a whole office to reach President Shen’s desk, which was about six or seven meters in length.
During this interval, Yan Guangzhuo noticed that there was also another desk of the same length as President Shen’s desk, placed at an angle of ninety degrees to the Shen Yijin’s desk.
In addition, there were two huge whiteboards in the office, one was placed opposite the extra desk, and the other was standing behind President Shen.
There were many calculations written on the whiteboard. Yan Guangzhuo couldn’t understand any of them, and didn’t pay attention at all. He was just thinking that perhaps the president’s office of a technology company was like this, the meeting required using your brain.
It was unlike his office, which was luxuriously decorated with golden dragon patterns, and the furnishing was all things that were conducive to feng shui3Feng shui, also known as Chinese geomancy, is a pseudoscientific traditional practice originating from ancient China, which claims to use energy forces to harmonize individuals with their surrounding environment. Soure: Wikipedia…it was quite tacky.
Their style was outdated, and now it should be this kind of minimalist office style accompanied by a profound scientific atmosphere that was the current trend.
Seeing the freshness and simplicity here, Yan Guangzhuo planned to redecorate his office when he returned.
“That desk belongs to Jing Xun.”
Just when Yan Guangzhuo finally walked in front of President Shen and sat on the chair specially designated for him by the other party, he heard him say this.
Yan Guangzhuo: “……”
? ? ?
So what’s the situation, his son not only won President Shen’s love, reached the point of talking about marriage, but now he also shared an office with President Shen?!
Yan Guangzhuo seriously felt that the information he had learned before was still incomplete and wrong.
This, this, this.
——How much do you have to like him to set up a desk in the office for him too??
Even the secretary and assistant office was outside!
He only heard that President Shen was a stubborn person and had a tough attitude.
Yet he really didn’t expect that…one day he would also be muddled by beauty4色令智昏[sè lìng zhì hūn]: Colors muddled the wisdom. An idiom refers to the loss of reason because of desire. !
And the object was his own son!
Yan Guangzhuo felt even more excited. He felt that it was worth being suppressed for half of his life. When he was old, he had such a “capable” son!
He subconsciously laughed out loud and said politely: “Haha, I’ve made President Shen laugh. You are so kind to my family Jingxun. He is a child who has not yet graduated, how can he work in the same office with President Shen… “
Unexpectedly, when he heard this, Shen Yijin sitting on the opposite side abruptly lifted his eyes.
The chilly and bleak peach blossom eyes were flooded with murderous aura, and the whole office became much quieter: “Mr. Yan, are you trying to belittle Jing Xun?”
“I…” Under this overwhelming pressure, Yan Guangzhuo suddenly didn’t know what the other party meant…
He wasn’t really belittling Jing Xun, right?
He was clearly complimenting President Shen!
It was really…no wonder the prominent figures in Dragon City said that President Shen was moody.
Yan Guangzhuo was shocked, not knowing what to say.
Fortunately, Shen Yijin didn’t pursue this matter either.
He pulled out a folder from the desk and handed a thick stack of materials to Yan Guangzhuo.
“President Shen, this is?”
“Take a look.” Shen Yijin said.
He seemed to be busy with other things, his slender and prominent fingers holding the tablet leisurely, but his expression was very focused, as if he was reading the information in detail.
The meaning was clearly to give Yan Guangzhuo time and let him read these materials.
Yan Guangzhuo, who almost bowed down to receive the documents: !
Could it be that President Shen was directly throwing the project to him and wanted him to read the plan?
With excitement, Yan Guangzhuo turned to the first page of the information… and then discovered that these seemed to be some of the information of his son, Yan Jingxun…
“President Shen, this…”
Yan Guangzhuo flipped through it roughly, but couldn’t understand.
It wasn’t that he couldn’t read, but he really couldn’t make head or tail of it.
It was all about what projects Yan Jingxun had participated in during school, what he had done, and what evaluation he had received… He didn’t understand it.
He didn’t understand why President Shen showed him this?
“Jing Xun is also your son.” Seeing that the other party took a few glances and stopped looking, Shen Yijin also put down the tablet in his hand.
“Mr. Yan is not going to give him some attention?”
“…It’s not that I don’t pay attention to him.” Yan Guangzhuo’s smiling face became a little ugly.
He could see that President Shen called him today to vent his anger for Yan Jingxun… Although this was the case, if Jing Xun was “favored”, it was reasonable for President Shen to vent his anger for him.
Yan Guangzhuo also knew that he was in the wrong, and could not help but directly say: “The matter between me and Jingxun’s mother may have caused Jingxun some misunderstanding. You also know that my son has a stubborn temper and dead set on believing…”
“Then the matter of not paying alimony is also a misunderstanding on Jing Xun’s part?”
Shen Yijin directly cut off his words.
Yan Guangzhuo: “…”
“Well, that was because I was short of money when I first divorced his mother, and I really couldn’t take out any money. When my life got better, I lost contact with their mother and son for a long time. Jingxun’s personality is in line with his mother. You are not married yet, so you may not be able to believe that living with such a stubborn woman…”
“But I heard that Jing Xun asked you for help later when he was in college, yet he was humiliated in the end.” Shen Yijin’s fingers lightly tapped on the tabletop, obviously not wanting to listen to his explanation.
He was already a moody person in the eyes of others, so when he showed a little more impatience, Yan Guangzhuo didn’t dare to speak out anymore.
…It was not that he didn’t want to pay for his son’s education.
When Yan Jingxun ran to borrow money, he said something that shouldn’t be said, but it was only because that woman had harshly said she didn’t want a single penny from him when she took Jingxun away.
He just had too much grudge with that woman, so it was inevitable to say a few more words in front of the child… He didn’t know that child had such a strong self-esteem that he actually paid back the money by doing odd jobs!
He didn’t care about those few thousand yuan.
No one cared either. Only Yan Jingxun took it seriously…
So was it his fault? He only accepted the repayment in the first place because he didn’t want to hurt that boy’s self-esteem! He didn’t really disregard him!
“I have done something wrong in the past… President Shen, you see, I’m also actively trying to communicate with my son. By the way, where is Jingxun? I, as a father, did pay too little attention to him over the years, so I should apologize to Jing Xun.”
Yan Guangzhuo chose not to explain, but to speak softly.
Although they didn’t meet often, he knew his own son best.
——Yan Jingxun was soft-hearted.
He believed that as long as he met Jingxun in person and apologized, the conflict would be completely resolved.
Even…perhaps…
Yan Jingxun was hiding somewhere right now and eavesdropping…!
There were too many such scenes in TV dramas, and Yan Guangzhuo immediately put on an even more regretful look and sighed: “Actually, I also thought of Xiao Xun. The palms and the backs of the hands are all meat5Generally means that you two things at the same time. Both things are equally important, so you are unable to choose one. Often used to refer to the choice of two children., how could I not care about him! I also hope that he can come to work in my company, but his elder brother knew all about this!”
“En.” Shen Yijin said, “Yan Zhengbo knew this. He also admitted that because he didn’t want Jingxun to go back to inherit the family business, he specially hired the water army to spread rumors that Jing Xun was cheating on the school forum.”
“……?”
Yan Guangzhuo drew a question mark in his heart, and his expression was straightforwardly confused.
Shen Yijin, who was accustomed to speaking less, didn’t say much, he just looked at him in silence, waiting for Yan Guangzhuo’s own response.
After a long time, Yan Guangzhuo finally reacted: “…this little bastard! He actually did such a thing?!”
“The relevant evidence is behind this document.” Shen Yijin pointed to the information that had just been handed over.
The lawyer’s letter for Yan Zhengbo had been sent, and Yan Guangzhuo would know about this sooner or later. He was not considered to be making small moves behind the scenes.
Yan Guangzhuo immediately flipped to the back.
He couldn’t understand it, so he had to read it very carefully. He finally turned to the pages of Yan Zhengbo’s slandering Jing Xun. After reading it, he became more and more furious.
“How could he… falsely accuse and frame his brother! This brute!” Yan Guangzhuo immediately cursed, he was really angry.
Needless to say, he also knew what benefits could be brought to Yan Zhengbo by framing Yan Jingxun, and why Yan Zhengbo did so.
But what really angered Yan Guangzhuo was that this beast had no regard for his family’s business and actually disobeyed his orders!
That loser only had his brain stuffed with ideas of how to harm his brother.
Why didn’t he think about it more? If Yan Jingxun really cheated on the exam, how would President Shen react?
If Yan Jingxun lost power and influence, what would happen to the cooperation with Shen Group when the time comes!
Yan Guangzhuo, who was stamped with rage, immediately said that he would deal with Yan Zhengbo when he went back.
But Shen Yijin said: “I have already taken the liberty of sending a lawyer’s letter to your son on behalf of Jingxun. It is also against the law to spread rumors and slander on the Internet, I hope Mr. Yan does not mind.”
“As it should be, as it should be.” Yan Guangzhuo: “Even if President Shen doesn’t care, I will still take care of it! I’ll break that beast’s legs when I go back!”
Shen Yijin couldn’t care less about Yan Zhengbo’s legs.
He straightforwardly said: “Today I invited Mr. Yan to come over, mainly because I want to tell you in person. I have seen Hengyan Real Estate’s project and it does not meet Shen Group’s capital injection standards. I have already told your son and nephew about this, so I’ll tell you in person again today. I also hope you will not pester Xiao Xun in the future.”
Yan Guangzhuo: “……???”
Unexpectedly, President Shen mentioned official business and directly rejected him with a few sentences…
These few sentences blocked all possibilities.
This made Yan Guangzhuo unable to continue playing the emotional card.
…He could play the emotional card with Yan Jingxun, but not with Shen Yijin.
When he didn’t see Yan Jingxun before entering the room, how come he didn’t think that these two were waiting for him here!
“Maybe it’s because Mr. Yan never cared about Jingxun.” Shen Yijin suddenly said.
His cold eyes stared unblinkingly at the other party. He seemed to have seen through the idea in the man’s heart.
There was an insinuation in Shen Yijin’s remark, but he didn’t need to say anything else.
——If you really care about this son, you should have taken the lead to ask his whereabouts when you entered the office and found that Jing Xun was absent.
Instead, you’re sitting down, thinking about how to borrow the name of this son to exchange benefits from others.
If he really came to see Jing Xun, perhaps Shen Yijin could be polite with him.
But now, it was not necessary.
“This…” Yan Guangzhuo didn’t intend to just give up like this. After his complexion turned from green to white, he chose to ignore the embarrassment of having his problem pointed out, and explained: “I really wanted to see Jingxun today, but I didn’t expect to see President Shen first, therefore I got excited and said a few more words…… So where is Xiao Xun?”
Considering that Yan Jingxun might actually be hiding in the corner to eavesdrop, Yan Guangzhuo began to criticize himself: “I have really neglected Xiao Xun all these years, but you don’t know how ruthless his mother was in the first place! It is true that I was separated from their mother and son, but all these years, I also miss Xiao Xun. He is also my son, how could I not worry about him…”
Yan Guangzhuo said as he covered his face with his hands. He couldn’t cry, but he could use his face to set off some effects.
However, he was obviously mistaken, acting in front of Shen Yijin would not have any effect.
In an almost machine-like cold tone, he said slowly: “If Mr. Yan really cares about Jing Xun, then don’t bother him anymore.”
Yan Guangzhuo: “…..”
“Just like the past three years, don’t give him any call. “His eyes brimmed with cold light, and his voice was also extremely frigid: “Don’t come to him because of our relationship, don’t let him help you, and don’t guilt trip him.”
Facing Yan Guangzhuo’s shocked and speechless gaze, Shen Yijin said solemnly: “Of course, legally, children cannot unilaterally dissolve the support relationship with their parents, so if Mr. Yan is persistent, wait until you are old and meet the conditions, then apply to the court for child support. We won’t be stingy with a few thousand yuan of alimony every month.”
With that said, he stood up and tidied up his suit.
The tall and upright figure stood there, and the shadow almost completely enveloped Yan Guangzhuo.
Shen Yijin made clear his intention of sending off the guest: “If you have heard and understood, Mr. Yan, you can go back now.”
Yan Guangzhuo: “…..”
Yan Guangzhuo felt like an invisible slap was stuck on his face, and his cheek was sore in an instant.
Other people said that President Shen was a person with few words. It turned out he just didn’t want to talk, not that he couldn’t talk.
Listening to those sentences, while satirizing him for sparing the alimony, he wanted to use a few thousand yuan instead of Yan Jingxun to send him away…
Of course he couldn’t just be sent off like that!
Yan Guangzhuo sat still and insisted that he wanted to see Jingxun in spite of Shen Yijin’s cold gaze.
“…I won’t leave without seeing Jingxun. I, I’m at least his father! President Shen, I’m not afraid to offend you. You and my family Jingxun are not married yet! If… if I disagree ……”
When he was speaking, the door of the office was knocked suddenly.
