Chapter 261
After listening to Shu Yi's words, Shen Yin was silent for a few seconds before saying, "Listen to your own heart, follow what you feel inside."0
Shu Yi instantly understood on the other end of the line.0
In reality, Shen Yin hadn't said anything specific, yet she had said everything.0
She couldn't interfere in this matter. As the saying goes, "Advise reconciliation, not separation." But what if later on, the two of them ended up unhappy? Wouldn't she then be the one to blame?0
So Shen Yin could only tell her to make her own choice and follow her heart.0
"Mommy, look at the picture I drew!" Zhengzheng came running over on her little legs, holding a sheet of A4 paper.0
"What is this?"0
Shen Yin had just hung up the phone. She crouched down and took the drawing from Zhengzheng.0
"This is Flower and me, and this is Mommy," the little one pointed at the figures in the drawing.0
Shen Yin held up the picture and compared it. Flower didn't look like Flower, Zhengzheng didn't look like Zhengzheng, and she didn't look like herself either.0
But children have their own ideas and imagination, and Shen Yin didn't want to discourage her little one's enthusiasm for drawing.0
So she praised her, "Zhengzheng, you did a great job."0
"Who's this?" Shen Yin pointed to another small figure in the drawing.0
"That's my little sister."0
After saying this, Xu Yunzheng looked at Shen Yin's belly. The pregnancy was still in its early stages, not showing yet.0
Who says children don't understand anything? Children actually know everything.0
"Where's Daddy?"0
"Daddy went out to earn money to support us," the little one said very seriously.0
How about Mommy goes out to earn money too?0
"No, Daddy told Zhengzheng to take good care of Mommy and little sister."0
"Oh, you."0
Shen Yin gently tapped the little one's nose.0
She then took the child to Qingfan Tower.0
Business at Qingfan Tower was getting better day by day, even surpassing some small tourist attractions. Many people came specifically to experience the daily life of ancient people.0
Listening to music, playing chess, reading books, appreciating paintings, watching dances.0
As the flow of visitors increased, the surrounding land was already being expanded. Chen Siming was already a clever person, and with Shen Yin's ideas, the local economy had been stimulated. It had truly become a dark horse in the recent restaurant industry.0
At this time, Xu Xiuhe was busy at Heyuan Group. Others might not know why he had been working overtime recently, but Shen Yin knew that Xu Xiuhe just wanted to get Xu Group back as soon as possible.0
He wanted to present Xu Group as a gift to Shen Yin before she gave birth.0
However, acquiring a group wasn't an easy task. The first thing Xu Xiuhe did was to negotiate partnerships, contacting all the companies that had stable cooperation with Xu Group before, openly competing for Xu Zhengyang's business.0
Xu Zhengyang wasn't particularly stupid, he could see that Xu Xiuhe was intentionally suppressing him.0
Xu Guimin had also returned to Xu Group. He hadn't been to the company for half a year. When he arrived at the company, he toured every floor, observing the company's recent development. He could naturally see that the company had been on a downward trend lately.0
After careful consideration, he called Xu Xiuhe.0
When Xu Xiuhe saw the incoming call, his first reaction was to hang up.0
Thinking this, he actually did it, directly pressing the red disconnect button.0
Xu Guimin didn't give up and called again.0
"Hello, Xiuhe."0
"If you have something to say, just say it."0
"You've been suppressing Xu Group recently, haven't you?"0
"How I do things doesn't seem to have much to do with you."0
"Why are you doing this?" Xu Guimin asked in a calm tone.0
Xu Xiuhe clearly hadn't expected Xu Guimin's tone to be so calm on the other end.0
"What I do has nothing to do with you. How did Xu Group end up in this state? Don't you know in your heart?"0
"Xiuhe, why are you doing this? I'm your father. In the future, this company will definitely belong to both of you. What's the point of what you're doing now?"0
"Who says it belongs to both of us? It can only be mine. Oh, I forgot to tell you, that son of yours really isn't suited for business. In the past six months, Xu Group hasn't even ranked."0
"Was what you said last time true?"0
...0
"Do I have any reason to deceive you? Let me give you a warning, be careful or you might not even know how you died in the end."0
Xu Xiuhe hung up after saying this.0
He had become so strong that he felt no ripples when facing Xu Guimin.0
After hanging up, Xu Xiuhe called Shen Yin. Before Shen Yin was pregnant, he used to call only two or three times a day. Now, he called whenever he had a free moment, afraid that Shen Yin might accidentally bump or knock into something.0
He even had the idea of making Shen Yin stay at home all day without moving. To be honest, he was a bit envious of Liu Bo outside, whose wife was always right in front of him, how nice that must be.0
"Hello, this is the second time."0
"You're even keeping count?"0
"Of course."0
"Is it almost lunchtime?"0
Xu Xiuhe asked. Ever since Shen Yin became pregnant, he hadn't even discussed it with her before hiring many housekeepers and nutritionists at home.0
Before, Shen Yin didn't want many people in the house, but now she had no choice but to agree. Being pregnant, how could she go into the kitchen and smell the cooking fumes?0
"Not yet, I'm at Qingfan Tower with Zhengzheng."0
"It seems like Qingfan Tower is your home now. Before it was Qinghe Villa, now it's Qingfan Tower, who knows which tower it'll be next."0
Xu Xiuhe teased.0
"Not at all, I have nothing to do. I've already listened to you, I don't even go to the martial arts gym myself now, I only go to the studio once every two weeks, and I have nothing to do with the Chinese furniture business. I'm bored every day."0
"Is it boring to see me?"0
"Ahem, Zhengzheng is hungry, we're going to eat now." Shen Yin hung up the phone.0
After having lunch with Yunzheng, Shen Yin began to ponder again about how to manage all these newly built Song dynasty-style buildings around her.0
Should they be directly categorized and separated into tea houses, restaurants, and other leisure places?0
Originally, she and Chen Siming just wanted to create a unique restaurant, but clearly now, it had gone beyond just being a restaurant.0
Suddenly, Shen Yin had an idea. After she and Xu Yunzheng finished lunch, she wanted to rest, but Qingfan Tower didn't have accommodation. The restaurant also didn't offer lodging services.0
But this area was already remote, with few nearby accommodation options, and the environment was generally average. So, they absolutely needed to build a hotel.0
If the hotel was built like Qingfan Tower, it would definitely have to be in the Song dynasty style. Even the interior decoration and layout should be like ancient times. That way, it would be more attractive and show more cultural charm.0
In the afternoon, Shen Yin recorded all her ideas and then sent them to Xu Xiuhe.0
"Honey, I originally wanted to give you Xu Group, but now I find that you're too powerful. In the future, you might not even care about Xu Group."0
"The more the merrier, I don't mind having more money," Shen Yin joked.0
"Daddy, what are you giving Zhengzheng?"0
"I'm sending Zhengzheng to kindergarten."0
"Great, great! Go to kindergarten, make new friends."0
Shen Yin was amused by the conversation between father and son.0
The little one had never been to kindergarten before, but isn't there a joke online? It suggests sending children to kindergarten because you can't stand seeing them so carefree.0
Shen Yin thought Xu Yunzheng still looked silly and happy even after being tricked by his own father.0
