After an intense telephone conference in the morning, Du Jiawen and the spokesperson of tbv company had a round of verbal exchanges, and both sides received satisfactory answers.
Although he was able to handle official duties with ease, he did not mobilize his enthusiasm. A night of "communication" with his parents did not make any substantial progress. Looking at the beautiful handwriting on the documents in his hand, who dares to say that Xiang Xiaochuang is not a qualified assistant to the president?
But neither my father nor my mother could see all this. After decades of mutual support, my mother still believed that her father was her God. She would support everything her father asked for at the last moment.
Du Jiawen suddenly hated his mother for being so "virtuous".
His father didn't even get to know him deeply before he said "no" to his feelings. Could it be that in his father's eyes, a marriage is just a business benefit?
In any case, resolving the engagement with Chen Sijia first is the top priority. He glanced at the door. Although he couldn't penetrate the thick wall, as long as he thought of Xiang Xiaochuang sitting across the corridor, he felt at ease.
.
"bell……"
The phone on the table rang, Du Jiawen frowned and pressed the hands-free button.
"President, do you need to answer Mr. Tang's call from the United States?" Liu Dong's voice was clear.
"Okay." Du Jiawen agreed and put his finger on his temple. Tang Xiangtian's phone call was basically nothing good.
"Du Jiawen!" Sure enough, Tang Xiangtian became very angry as soon as he came up, as if he had taken the wrong explosive.
"Well, it's me."
"Your father is back?" Tang Xiangtian didn't mince words at all, he got to the heart of the question straightforwardly.
"Your information is quite good." Du Jiawen smiled perfunctorily.
"Listen, I know about the relationship between your father and the Chen family..." Tang Xiangtian's voice was a little cold, "He was not completely innocent in his early years, and there was something wrong with him that fell into the hands of the Chen family."
Du Jiawen was stunned for a moment: "Nonsense!"
"If that's not the case, why did he tolerate the Chen family's big move against your branch? Although he is not from a gangster background, the Chen family helped him to take several lives when he made a fortune in his early years. This debt is not so
Easy to pay back!”
"It's impossible, my father..." Du Jiawen retorted instinctively. With Du Kang's attitude of hating the underworld, how could he himself be involved in the underworld?
"Do you think Du Kang's hands are clean? It's his marriage to your mother Liu Qinzhi. I'm afraid more than one life was involved!"
"No, how is that possible!" Du Jiawen retorted.
"That's all I have to say, and a final warning, if Xiang Xiaochuang is wronged, I will tear down your entire Du family! Remember, you have a one-month deadline, hurry up and find an assistant, and I will
Come and take her back to New York in person."
Tang Xiangtian hung up the phone neatly, and Du Jiawen said "hello" twice, but only a "beep beep" busy signal was left.
In the afternoon, Du Kang once again sat in the chairman's office, which had been dusty for more than half a year. Xiang Xiaochuang always felt that his eyes on her were a bit unkind.
For one week in a row, Du Jiawen was dragged back to Du's house for dinner. There were so many extra entertainments that he didn't know where, and he was suddenly overwhelmed.
Xiang Xiaochuang becomes more silent day by day, and just does her job seriously and meticulously. Even if she is picky like Du Kang, she can hardly find any mistakes in the materials she handles.
Du Jiawen made insinuating remarks: "Dad, this assistant, did I make a mistake?"
Du Kang nodded coldly: "In terms of work ability, there is no problem. However, are you discussing with me the assistant to the president, or the woman you want?"
"The assistant can find someone else, but the woman I want, dad, I have grown up and really only like this one."
"No." Du Kang's refusal left no room for maneuver.
"Dad, do you think Xiaochuang can't bring commercial benefits to the Du family? However, I don't think that the Du family today has to use a woman to add to the cake."
"Boss Tang's daughter... Absolutely not! Even if you can't add icing on the cake, you are absolutely not allowed to ask for trouble. Who is Boss Tang? In New York, you can't say that you can make clouds with your hands, but you can kidnap someone.
, it’s still more than enough. If something goes wrong in the future, you might get into trouble.”
"Xiaochuang is different!"
"Don't think that if you find Mr. Tang as your backer, you can get recognition from me, Du Kang." Du Kang's attitude left no room for change and was so decisive that it was almost cruel.
"Dad, why did you marry mom then?" Du Jiawen suddenly changed the subject.
"Your mother and I... are a perfect match, and this marriage is a natural progression." Du Kang was stunned for a moment before he answered lightly.
"I heard...that my mother had another lover back then?" Du Jiawen just guessed from Tang Xiangtian's words, so he asked carefully, but saw Du Kang's expression suddenly change.
"Did Qinzhi tell you?"
Du Kang's violent reaction made Du Jiawen's heart sink, and he immediately believed Tang Xiangtian's words.
"I..." Du Jiawen hesitated and decided not to "confess" Tang Xiangtian. I'm afraid Du Kang has more ill feelings towards Xiang Xiaochuang's younger brother, right?
"No matter what, the marriage between your mother and I is still happy!" Du Kang hurriedly concluded, "Don't bring the topic to our previous generation, it's you and Xiang Xiaochuang now! If you don't want to limit
When Chen Sijia gets married, you can handle it yourself. I won't interfere. But marrying Xiang Xiaochuang is absolutely not possible! If you are interested, why not focus on the ladies in this city. Although your engagement with Chen Sijia is still there,
But... anyone with a discerning eye can probably see that sooner or later..."
Du Jiawen and Du Kang finally disagreed and broke up on bad terms.
The company's operations are booming, but the relationship with Xiang Xiaochuang has become further and further apart because of the sudden return of Du Kang and his wife.
Xiang Xiaochuang did not express any dissatisfaction, but he had asked the human resources department to hire a headhunting company to find someone to be the president's assistant. Du Jiawen felt even more depressed when he heard the report from the manager of the human resources department.
But facing Xiang Xiaochuang, she couldn't bear to blame him.
"I'm sorry, I haven't spent much time with you recently. Because...as you know, my parents have just come back after all, and there are guests at home who need to socialize every now and then."
"I understand." Xiang Xiaochuang smiled gently, "Don't worry, I'm fine recently."
"Baby...are you okay?" Du Jiawen's eyes fell on her belly, "I heard you are looking for an assistant?"
"Yes, no matter whether I go to the United States or not, I can no longer stay in Yixin. In another month, I won't be able to hide it anymore." Xiang Xiaochuang smiled faintly, as if he was just chatting with him.
