Seeing Zhang Waner's leaving figure, Chen Lishu turned to look at Su Nian and gave a faint instruction: "Follow her and wait until she comes home before you leave!"
Su Nian nodded and said, "Okay."
Soon the house became quiet. Gu Xingdong also opened the door of the room and walked out. He put his hands around his chest and said leisurely: "What's the matter with that child?"
Chen Lishu came to the sofa and pondered for a moment, organized her words, and then slowly said: "I think you should have recognized it, right? She is Xu Teng's child. I plan to adopt this poor guy and treat her
Just like Yicheng and Xiaobai!"
Xu Teng?!
When Gu Xingdong heard the result, he was relatively calm. After all, he had recognized the child early in the morning. On the contrary, Li Xiulan's attitude was a little excited:
"She is the child of a kidnapper? Lishu, you are simply confused. Now there is a lot of controversy about you adopting a child of a kidnapper. If this spreads, won't it make your reputation worse?
Besides, have you forgotten how Xu Teng treated you? Isn’t it the same as inviting a wolf into the house by adopting his daughter? No, for the sake of our family and your personal safety, you must give this child away tomorrow!"
Seeing that Li Xiulan was particularly persistent in this matter, Chen Lishu put her hand on her forehead helplessly and explained: "Mom, I was able to escape from Guijia Village thanks to the help of this child.
Guijia Village is a relatively poor and backward place, where boys are valued over girls. If Tiantian stays by Xu Teng's side, there are only two results, either she will starve to death, or she will become someone else's wife early!
Not to mention that this child is kind to us, even if she is an ordinary child, we cannot help but watch her be ruined for the rest of her life!"
Li Xiulan pursed her lips and said with a look full of embarrassment: "So what if boys are preferred over girls? After all, they are still their children, and when she finds a husband in the future, she will have to find good conditions for her.
You can’t blame mom for being cruel, the main reason is that our family is already facing a lot of headaches now. If we adopt this child, how will we be able to explain it clearly in front of the media in the future?"
Chen Lishu knew that Li Xiulan did this for her own good. With a flattering smile on her face, she took Li Xiulan's arm and said, "Don't worry, Gu Xingdong and I have already solved this matter.
"
Li Xiulan had no choice but to throw the problem on Gu Xingdong's head and said: "Gu Xingdong, your wife wants to adopt the daughter of a trafficker, do you have any objection?
If you don’t even have any objections, I won’t get involved in the affairs of you two. Anyway, just think of it as having an extra pair of bowls and chopsticks at home, so it’s not a big deal.”
Gu Xingdong met Chen Lishu's nervous eyes, shrugged his shoulders, and said casually: "I support Lishu's behavior."
Having said that, no matter how much Li Xiulan disliked Tiantian in her heart, she could only compromise with the two of them. This matter could be regarded as a brief understanding.
----
After Xu Teng got one hundred thousand yuan, he ran to the casino non-stop and played there for five days. During these five days, Chen Lishu also got a very quiet resting environment.
Five days later, Chen Lishu was sitting in the office and met the flustered Shen Wei again. She only heard the other party say: "Mr. Chen, that shameless Xu Teng is back again.
He is clamoring down below to see you, saying that if he cannot see you, he will bring this matter to the TV station and embarrass our company, and no one will dare to buy our products anymore!"
Chen Lishu was not surprised at all that Shen Teng was going too far. She put down her work and said in a cold and calm voice: "Since everyone is here, let's invite him in."
Seeing Chen Lishu being so calm, Shen Wei's eyes widened in disbelief. He waved his arms and complained emotionally:
"Mr. Chen, he came here for only one purpose, and that is to use money to gamble. Xu Teng is no different from a black hole now. No matter how much money we give, we can't fill this hole!
You gave him 200,000 yuan each time, which is half a lifetime's income for an ordinary family. Who knows that Xu Teng still doesn't know what to do? He wants to suck your blood for the rest of his life!"
Chen Lishu waved her hand helplessly and said in a comforting voice: "Okay, I know what you are worried about, but it doesn't matter. Everything is as I expected. Go ahead and invite people in."
In the end, Shen Wei couldn't twist his thigh with his arm, so he could only keep a sullen face, ran downstairs with a bad attitude, grabbed Xu Teng's collar and dragged him into the office.
Xu Teng never thought that such a humiliating thing could happen in his life. No matter how hard he struggled, he was no match for Shen Wei, so under the strange looks of a group of people, he was dragged into a small room by Shen Wei without dignity.
Shen Wei clapped his hands, the look of disgust on his face was very obvious. Some people thought he was infected with some kind of virus, so he was avoiding it: "Mr. Chen, I have brought you the person you want!"
When Xu Teng entered the room, the first thing he did was to look around. When he saw the familiar face of Chen Lishu, the panic on his face was replaced by disdain:
"Mr. Chen, your company's personnel management is a bit inappropriate. All cats and dogs dare to attack me! I would say that you women should be at home raising your husband and raising your children. Why do you need to show your face?
After all, women are still not as efficient as men in doing things! If you can’t even control a small employee, you might as well hand over the company to me and I’ll take care of it for you!”
Listening to Xu Teng's whimsical thoughts, the expression on Chen Lishu's face was gradually replaced by impatience. She put her hands on the table and asked with sharp eyes:
"I gave you 100,000 yuan last time, and the condition was that you take Wang Yuhua back to Guijia Village. Are you breaking the promise?"
Xu Teng crossed his legs and asked angrily: "Isn't it the money you spent to buy Tiantian for 100,000 yuan? You know, if this little girl stays with me, she can earn some gift money. Do you still expect me to give it to you for free? What does it mean that she has eaten food in my house for so many years?
Chen Lishu sneered and asked, "How much money do you want to get for coming here this time?"
Xu Teng held his chin with one hand and thought carefully, and then the lion said loudly: "One hundred thousand yuan is too little, and I can't even hold on for ten days.
If Miss Chen wants to have a quiet living environment, then I advise you to give me five hundred thousand directly this time, and you can live a good life in the next two to three months!"
