Empress Of Business World - Chapter 307
h-307
Chen Hao Ling returned to the venue. He saw everything was packed up, and no one was left except for his brother and grandfather. His grandfather was paying the leftover bills and looking at the other things. Even though he was sad, he looked over many things. He didn’t let his grandsons work a lot.
“Brother, where did you go?” Chen Mu Sheng asked.
“Nothing! One guest asked me to send me off to the gate. So, I went!” he said.
“Who did that? Don’t they know the culture! How could they ask the family of the dead people to send them off!?” Chen Long Wei shouted.
“Forget it… Let’s go home and get some rest!” he continued and took the three of them.
The four of them returned home and retired to their rooms.
The three kids took a shower and ate dinner in the name prepared by the servants and retired to the bed. Chen Hao Ling couldn’t sleep, no matter how much he tried.
He went out to take a breather.
He saw his grandfather was in the garden. So he went out.
“Grandfather~” Chen Hao Ling called him out.
“Why are you here?” Chen Long Wei asked.
“Can’t Sleep!” Chen Hao Ling replied.
“You are drinking!” he continued.
“I was used to sleeping beside her. Now she is not there. How can I sleep now?” he said.
“But it doesn’t give you the reason to drink!” Chen Hao Ling said softly.
“Hmm…. Let me drink for today!” he said.
“No, next time!” Chen Hao Ling warned.
“Okay!” he replied.
They both sat in silence for a long time. No one knows. They both gave company to each other.
A lot of things were running through their minds. They both were thinking about different things. They couldn’t believe the things or situations that happened to them. Everything was too much for them to take!
“Grandfather, could you tell me about your love story?” Chen Hao Ling asked suddenly.
“Our marriage is an arranged marriage by elders. Till we were married, we don’t even know each other. But after our marriage, I got to know your mother wasn’t treated by her family that well. Because she resembled her mother a lot. Her mother was dead when her sister was born. Normally, everywhere the younger one should be maltreated, but here the elder one was maltreated. Wu Da Xia’s sister was kind. Her sister Wu Xia Xia would take care of Wu Da Xia sometimes.
“After their studies, Wu Da Xia married me. Your Grand Uncle, Wen Donghai, used many ways to make her unable to give birth. Everyone thought she was infertile. Chen’s were growing up at a fast pace. The business was growing up. Many people wanted to send their daughters into my bed. Even your grandmother’s family, too. They offered Wu Xia Xia to me. But I refused because I loved your grandmother.
“But your grandmother’s family used many tricks and things on me with Wu Xia Xia. As if God heard your grandmother’s cries, she finally became pregnant. Everything was put to an end.
“Your grandmother’s sister left the country notifying no one. After through her family, we got to know she was dead in an accident only after six months of her departure!
“Wu Da Xia worked hard with me to bring this company to new heights. She endured many things. She had many things which disappointed her, but she never complained. Wu Da Xia just endured. She never showed her anger to anyone. She promised me she would live with me until her last breath. And she did. While I couldn’t! I am such a jerk!” Chen Long Wei said.
“She was so disappointed with Wu Xia Xia for the thing she did to us. But she never said her grievances to me or her. She cried to herself. That was when her health started deteriorating!” The old man Chen Said as he fell asleep.
Chen Hao Ling understood his grandfather does not even know a thing about Wu Xia Xia. He doesn’t even know that he has a son outside. But he said Wu Xia Xia did something that hurt her grandmother deeply and made her ill from that time.
Chen Hao Ling was sure that his grandfather did nothing wrong, but his grandaunt did something.
Now, he decided not to leave Chen’s house. He wouldn’t bow to that man.
He called servants and let them carry him to his room.
Chen Hao Ling didn’t go with that man, no matter what he did. But that man every day sent a letter to him sneakily and reminded him he was the son of the murderer of the Chen’s. That man tried to break Chen Hao Ling mentally. Chen Hao Ling felt like the world was crashing.
After the week’s deadline, Mu Sheng and Go Jichen would return with wounds in the names of minor accidents some way or other! He tried to be calm, but he couldn’t help but be anxious. One day when the three of them were going out, a car almost hit Mu Sheng to death. If he didn’t have quick reflexes, Mu Sheng would have been dead. That incident scared Chen Hao Ling to death… That was the first time he saw the genuine fear in him.
So, he couldn’t take risks for their lives. So, he left Chen’s no matter what. Whenever the man tried to kill Mu Sheng, he tried to stop that man, but when he couldn’t he would send information to Mu Sheng anonymously. He would be relieved only when he knew Mu Sheng was safe.
But now he returned because the man couldn’t be stopped anymore. When he got the pregnancy from Yan Shu, he wanted to kill the whole family. The man understood that Chen Hao Ling wouldn’t let him do anything to Chen’s. So, he started hurting Chen without telling him. Previously he sent assassins to kill Yan Shu and Mu Sheng. But because of Yan Shu’s skills, they both were saved.
——————————–
“So, you left with him to save us?” Mu Sheng said.
“Then why did you come now. Why not stay with him and protect us?” Mu Sheng mocked.
“My threats were no longer effective on him. When he got the news of Yan Shu’s pregnancy, he started hiring mercenary groups to kill you both!” Chen Hao Ling said.
“What?!”
“True! I even know she was one month pregnant!” Chen Hao Ling said.
“How shall I believe you are telling the truth! If what you said was true! Why didn’t you tell us before! Why now!? How can I be sure that you were not against me!?” Chen Mu Sheng said.
“Sheng!” Yan Shu yelled at him.
“Live with us!” she said as she turned towards Chen Hao Ling.
“Honey!”
“What?!” Yan Shu yelled at Mu Sheng.
“Nothing!”
“I am tired. I want to sleep!” Yan Shu said.
“Let’s Go home!” Mu Sheng said.
“Let’s live here today!” Yan Shu said.
“Are you sure?” he said.
Yan Shu nodded her head at him.
“Fine! I will guide you upstairs!” he said.
“Carry me!” She w.h.i.n.ed like a kid.
He smiled and said to Chen Hao Ling that I will come to you later.
Chen Mu Sheng and Yan Shu reached their room. He settled Yan Shu on the bed. He removed her shoes and helped her loosen her clothes a bit. Chen Mu Sheng turned on the AC and set it to moderate temperature. And was about to leave.
“Accompany me to sleep!” Yan Shu mumbled.
Mu Sheng smiled at her and joined her in the bed.
Chen Hao Ling was stuffed with dog food to the point of throwing up. After they left, he went to the doctor’s room and got his wounds treated.
In fact, Chen Hao Ling almost died when he came out of the man’s trap. Wu Xiu Ying wrapped a rope around his neck, which was neither too tight nor too loose, but enough for him to suffocate. If not for his powerful will, he would have been killed himself long ago. He felt sad when he was doubted by Mu Sheng.
The only thing he could do now was protecting them and proving his innocence. He doesn’t know why he took that dumb step. If he had said that to his grandfather when he was young, his grandfather would have taken care of him and saved him from Wu Xiu Ying. Maybe love makes a person dumb and stupid. That was why he was also turned stupid.
All these years, he used to dream of a day that he returned to Chen’s and reunite with his brothers. And play with them. He heard about his sister-in-law kicking his brother out of his own house and her silly punishments to him. He always wanted to meet her. Now after meeting her she was really as rumors said. Only she can handle Mu Sheng. He saw how she controlled him with her words!
