Chapter 268: Life is always not perfect, Zhou Chen’s ruthlessness
After a busy day's work, Zhou Chen returned home and saw a serious and tired Song Qian.
"Mom, how is Yingzi's mood today?"
He and Qiao Yingzi have been married for three years. In the first year, both of them were busy with work, and the family was arranged by the nanny Chen Ma.
But after that incident happened the next year, Song Qian and Qiao Weidong made it clear that they would come over to take care of their daughter.
The father-in-law and mother-in-law only have one daughter, Qiao Yingzi. If they want to take care of their daughter, Zhou Chen naturally has no reason to refuse.
So he spent money to buy a bigger villa. Originally, he wanted Ma Chen to come with him. After all, Ma Chen had taken care of him all these years and she knew all his habits best.
But Chen Ma left again within a month of arriving at the new villa.
It wasn't Zhou Chen who rushed her, but Song Qian was too protective of her daughter. She couldn't stand many of Chen's mother's behaviors, which made it very difficult for Chen's mother to behave.
Although Chen's mother is a servant, she has been with Zhou Chen's mother for a long time and has taken care of Zhou Chen for more than 20 years. Seeing that she was suffering here without telling him, Zhou Chen could only let her go back to the old villa.
, try not to meet Song Qian.
It's not like Zhou Chen has never encountered family problems like this before, but this time, Song Qian, the mother-in-law, really left him speechless.
As long as it involves Yingzi, she has to take care of everything. Sometimes, when he comes back from socializing and drinking, Song Qian will say something to him, which makes him very depressed.
It has been eight years since I established a relationship with Qiao Yingzi in college and got married now.
In the past few years, under Zhou Chen's management, the relationship between the two could be said to be as harmonious as music, and they were definitely a couple that made countless men and women envious.
But something happened the year before last. Since then, although they are still as loving as ever, there have been many inevitable conflicts between them.
It was also because of that incident that Song Qian became picky and dissatisfied.
The year before last, that is, the second year after Zhou Chen and Qiao Yingzi got married, Qiao Yingzi became pregnant.
This was originally a joyful thing, and Zhou Chen, Song Qian and others were even more excited.
This is not the first time Zhou Chen has had a child. When everything was going well, he also gave birth to a daughter.
It's just that at that time, his relationship with Yi Fei was not deep, but Qiao Yingzi was his wife who had had a crush on each other since high school, and had been in a long-distance love affair for many years, and finally got together.
The relationship between the two can be said to be very deep. Now that they have a child, it is the best testimony to their love.
But no one expected that an accident would happen, and this accident was caused by Zhou Chen's scumbag father.
At that time, Zhou Chen relied on his own ability and foresight to kill everyone in the shopping mall and amassed money crazily. The Chenying Group he founded by himself already had seven or eight subsidiaries, including a trading company, a mask joint company, and an astronomical research institute.
, logistics companies, entertainment companies, etc.
Although it has not yet been listed, Chenying Group's assets have exceeded 10 billion, making it a veritable business giant.
Compared with Zhou Chen, Zhou Guodong's luck was not very good. Ever since he was rejected by Zhou Chen, he seemed to have lost the aura of the protagonist. After several years, there has been no development in his career.
Although he can still be considered a billionaire now, his life is not a bit worse than before he fell ill.
Knowing that his son had become a tycoon in the business world, Zhou Guodong approached Zhou Chen again, but Zhou Chen didn't even give him a chance to meet and ignored him many times.
It is precisely because of this that the tragedy occurred.
Zhou Guodong felt that there was no way through Zhou Chen, so he thought of finding a solution from his daughter-in-law Qiao Yingzi, and then went to find Qiao Yingzi.
But Zhou Guodong didn't know where his brain was broken, so he just went by himself, and even took Wang Xue with him.
The two people licked their faces when they found Qiao Yingzi. Qiao Yingzi's attitude was quite polite, but knowing that they were here to ask for help, she treated him with caution.
Because Qiao Yingzi had been with Zhou Chen for so many years, she already knew what was going on in Zhou Chen's family. Of course, it was impossible to help Zhou Guodong secretly behind Zhou Chen's back.
Zhou Guodong couldn't save his face and asked Qiao Yingzi for mercy, but Wang Xue was willing to lose face for the future life of himself and his son, and pulled Qiao Yingzi to beg her for help, and even knelt down.
Qiao Yingzi definitely didn't want to see such a scene, so she tried to help her, and the two of them pulled each other, but by accident, Qiao Yingzi fell on her back.
So, a tragedy happened. Qiao Yingzi suffered from severe bleeding due to the impact. When she arrived at the hospital, it was too late to rescue her. She could only keep the adults okay, but the child could not be saved.
When Zhou Chen found out about this, he went crazy.
You must know that Qiao Yingzi was already more than five months pregnant at that time, and she would give birth in a few months. She was gone all of a sudden. You can imagine the pain.
Even Zhou Chen is like this, let alone Qiao Yingzi.
After learning that her child was gone, Qiao Yingzi was in great pain. The depression that had not broken out for seven or eight years suddenly resurfaced and became more serious.
Although the matter has already happened and cannot be undone, Zhou Chen will naturally not expose this matter easily.
This time, he was no longer afraid of Zhou Guodong's identity as his original father, but directly retaliated against the Zhou family with thunderous means.
Zhou Guodong's various illegal and criminal matters were exposed by him. No matter how Zhou Guodong tried to quibble, he could not change the result. He was immediately sentenced to life imprisonment in the first instance.
After the trial, Zhou Chen also went to see Zhou Guodong. Zhou Guodong initially wanted to take advantage of the father-son relationship and asked Zhou Chen to spare him.
But Zhou Chen was indifferent. He already had great disdain for Zhou Guodong, and now he had indirectly harmed his unborn child. He was showing mercy by not taking action, so how could he let Zhou Guodong go.
After Zhou Guodong was solved, Zhou Chen would certainly not let go of Wang Xue, the culprit.
He didn't show mercy just because Wang Xue was a woman. The old and new grudges made him hate Wang Xue even more than Zhou Guodong.
However, Zhou Chen did not take action himself, but let Wang Xue make his own choice on the condition that Wang Xue's son would be his son.
As long as Wang Xue agrees to his conditions, he can let her son go. But if Wang Xue is stubborn, he will use more despicable and cruel methods.
In the end, Wang Xue was forced by Zhou Chen to make a choice and jumped from the rooftop of the 30th floor, ending his life.
Wang Xue committed suicide because of his own persecution. Zhou Chen only felt ashamed for a moment, and then felt a huge sense of emptiness.
By doing this, he avenged his unborn child, but he still couldn't erase the pain in his heart, because the child who left could no longer come back.
After living for so many years, Zhou Chen has also seen off friends and relatives, but he has never been as grief-stricken as this time.
Even though he hasn't met his own child yet, he can already understand the feeling of a white-haired person giving a black-haired person.
He took revenge, but Qiao Yingzi was not happy at all. She was so distraught that she fell into symptoms of depression again.
That period of time was like crazy, and even Zhou Chen couldn't erase the pain in her heart.
This state lasted for several months and I saw many doctors before slowly calming down.
However, it took more than a year to recover from this kind of injury.
However, after Qiao Yingzi became pregnant again, her mood began to become a little unstable again. She had her first miscarriage, which made her worried and suspicious all day long.
If it was just Qiao Yingzi who was in this state, Zhou Chen was confident that he could still take good care of her. After all, he had lived for so many years and his temperament was much more patient than ordinary people.
But the problem is that this time he has to face not only his wife Qiao Yingzi, but also her parents.
No matter what dissatisfaction Qiao Yingzi had with her mother in the past, after being hurt, the first person she trusted, besides Zhou Chen, was her parents.
Qiao Weidong is fine, but Song Qian is really too difficult to maintain.
Driving Mother Chen away was just an appetizer. Anyway, Zhou Chen felt uncomfortable every time he lived with Song Qian. Song Qian was really good at finding faults. She couldn't stand this and that.
Especially after Qiao Yingzi became pregnant, Song Qian's reaction was several times more intense than Qiao Yingzi's. Not only Zhou Chen, but also Qiao Weidong was also tormented.
Anyway, since Qiao Yingzi became pregnant, he has not slept with Qiao Yingzi as long as Song Qian was at home, and whenever Zhou Chen came back from drinking, Song Qian would say a few words.
At first, Zhou Chen could bear it. He felt that Song Qian treated him like this because his daughter was hurt and she took out her resentment on him.
But he really couldn't stand this kind of attitude all the time, so what he said to Song Qian really went in one ear and out the other, and he ignored her if he could.
When he traveled to the first world, he was troubled by family conflicts. He really didn't want to have such an experience again, so he just ignored it.
"Yingzi is in a good mood today. She just vomited a few times. You should quickly take a shower. If she smells the smell of tobacco and alcohol on you, she will definitely vomit again."
Song Qian glanced at Zhou Chen with dissatisfied eyes. She didn't know if it was because of menopause that she didn't like the two men at home.
Zhou Chen was better off, after all, he was his son-in-law and a big shot outside. The most she could do was complain a few times.
But Qiao Weidong was different. In the past two years, Qiao Weidong's life was really not a human life, with all kinds of scolding, cynicism, and even Qiao Weidong's shame, he was forced to quarrel with her many times.
"Well, I understand."
Zhou Chen nodded and was about to go upstairs, but Song Qian suddenly stopped him again.
"Wait a minute, Zhou Chen, Yingzi is almost seven months old. In the third trimester of pregnancy, you must not have sex with her again during this period, nor can you stimulate her any more. Stop socializing outside and come back as soon as possible to accompany her."
Zhou Chen nodded and responded: "I understand. I will arrange the work at hand recently and spend more time with Yingzi."
"Well, you go up."
After Zhou Chen went upstairs, he walked quietly into the room and saw Qiao Yingzi sleeping on her side. Without disturbing her, he quietly picked up a change of clothes and walked into the bathroom.
When he returned to the room after washing, Qiao Yingzi was already awake, leaning on the bedside, looking at him with a smile.
"Husband, you are back."
Zhou Chen walked over, hugged Qiao Yingzi into his arms, and said softly: "Yingzi, are you feeling better today?"
"Well, I'm pretty good today. Although I vomited a few times, I can finally eat."
Qiao Yingzi leaned against Zhou Chen with a smile on her face. She liked being hugged by Zhou Chen like this. Even if she couldn't stay close to each other because of her pregnancy, she would feel particularly at ease as long as Zhou Chen held her.
Because over the years, she has relied on Zhou Chen to get through the most difficult times.
The reaction to this pregnancy was very severe. Since I became pregnant, I have been unable to eat dry rice. I will vomit when I eat it. It is still the kind of particularly severe morning sickness, with bleeding in the throat and bruises on the face and neck.
Therefore, during the period of pregnancy, Qiao Yingzi's main food was fruits. Zhou Chen bought him fruits in various ways. Even if they were out of season, he would try his best to buy them for Qiao Yingzi.
"That's good. Isn't it too boring to stay at home every day? I'll go out with you for a walk tomorrow to get some fresh air?"
Looking at Qiao Yingzi's pale cheeks, Zhou Chen felt heartbroken. Ever since she became pregnant, Qiao Yingzi had rarely left the villa area. Even for pregnancy check-ups, most doctors would be invited to the villa for examinations. Only large-scale examinations would be done.
Hospital.
Qiao Yingzi shook her head and said: "No, just walk in the garden, don't go out."
It wasn't that she didn't want to go out, but she didn't dare to go out. What happened back then made her like a frightened bird, and she didn't dare to walk around casually.
Zhou Chen had already guessed this answer, but he still sighed in his heart.
After that miscarriage, when Qiao Yingzi became pregnant again, she became too timid. With Song Qian watching over her, Qiao Yingzi did not dare to move around at all. Everything was focused on protecting the baby.
It's a good thing to be cautious, but in Zhou Chen's opinion, this reaction was really too much, but he couldn't say it out loud.
"Okay, then if you want to eat anything, I'll ask someone to buy it."
"No, as long as you stay with me, I'll feel at ease."
"I will definitely be with you, no matter what time it is, I will always be with you."
After so many years of long-distance love, they have transformed from a boy and a girl to the current couple.
The two have experienced happiness and contentment, as well as quarrels and injuries, but this did not create a gap in their relationship. On the contrary, they fell in love even more, from the original love to the current love and family affection.
"By the way, I have something to tell you."
"What's up?"
Qiao Yingzi said: "It's not one year away, it's the tenth anniversary of high school graduation. Mom, among the group of senior high school students today, some students proposed a class reunion on the tenth anniversary."
"Are they the classmates in your sprint class?"
Zhou Chen still remembers the events of his senior year of high school very clearly. In fact, someone in their basic class also suggested a class reunion, but not many people responded.
Over the past few years, we only got together once in the first year. From then on, the thunder was loud and the rain was light.
"Yes, there is still one year left. After I give birth to the baby and recover for a while, I can go to the class reunion."
The friendship in the senior year of high school is very precious. Qiao Yingzi cherishes this time very much, so she still wants to attend this class reunion.
Zhou Chen said with a smile: "You have also heard that saying, a class reunion breaks up a couple. Many people go astray after class reunions."
Qiao Yingzi patted him gently, and then said confidently: "That's because they are not confident enough. I am very confident. No matter which classmate I am, there is no one as capable as my husband. Even if we are the best in the class, we will not be able to do it."
He just graduated from Ph.D. not long ago, so there is no comparison with my husband."
Zhou Chen held her face and kissed her hard.
"My husband has such a high status in your heart?"
Qiao Yingzi rubbed Zhou Chen's nose with her nose, "Of course, in my heart, if I have to choose the person I admire the most, it must be you."
She and Zhou Chen both studied astronomy at university, and she knew Zhou Chen's learning ability very well. She had a master's degree and a doctorate, but she didn't dare to say that she was more professional than Zhou Chen in astronomy.
In addition to studying, Zhou Chen is also outstanding in other aspects.
Anyway, after all these years of investing, she has never seen Zhou Chen lose money.
Her father, Qiao Weidong, is engaged in investment. In terms of business, even her father admires Zhou Chen immensely.
