Chapter 180: Chapter 180 Discussing the Engagent Matters
Gu Hanchen’s phone call completely dispelled Yuan Xi’s drowsiness.
Huo Shiyuan walked in and saw Yuan Xi frowning at her computer, “Why are you still looking at the computer in bed?”
Yuan Xi said, “I was looking at the data from Destroying Stars. I just received a call from Gu Hanchen, and he said Destroying Stars was an investnt solely by Mi Yi.”
Huo Shiyuan asked, “What’s wrong?”
Yuan Xi said, “The investnt in Destroying Stars has already exceeded two billion… Mi Yi could not possibly see a return, it’s like throwing money into a bottomless pit.”
Huo Shiyuan ruffled Yuan Xi’s hair. “Wasn’t the incident with Gao Yang lesson enough? Why worry for Mi Yi? She can summon more cash on hand in an instant than you or I, and usually, she has enough to worry about with Mi Chen and the kids. Let’s not concern ourselves with Mi Yi’s issues.”
“I owe my position today most importantly to my foster parents, and next to Sister Mi Yi. Without Sister Mi Yi, I’d still be clueless about where I’d be, working nine to five and earning just eleven thousand a month, scrimping and saving only to find I can’t even afford a house or car.”
Yuan Xi sighed, “Now, Mi Yi might hold so grudges against . Putting myself in her position, it’s understandable to feel this way. She was the founder of Mi Chen, and half of the company’s na was hers, but now she’s completely disconnected from its current state. Misunderstandings towards are inevitable, so I can’t just watch Sister Mi Yi walk down this dark path…”
Huo Shiyuan said, “Only thankful towards Mr. and Mrs. Yuan and Mi Yi, not even a thanks for ? Had I not saved Mi Chen two years ago, it would’ve already beco history, and you’d have been forced to switch jobs by now. So, the person you should really be thanking is .”
Yuan Xi smiled, “Didn’t you tell not to thank you?”
Huo Shiyuan held Yuan Xi in his arms, “Mi Yi granted you a great favor, and it’s right for you to appreciate her. However, what you have today, you don’t owe to Mi Yi. Forget the envious voices around you; what you’ve attained isn’t just from Mi Yi, and you don’t need to feel indebted to her.”
Huo Shiyuan played with Yuan Xi’s fingers, “Mi Yi happened to take away 6.8 billion in cash, for which she should be thanking you. At that ti, the crisis wasn’t sothing even Hanchen could handle. You know his family was always against him starting a gaming company. Before I invested in Mi Chen, you had also tried to pull in other investnts, right? Had it not been for you, I wouldn’t have invested in Mi Chen. Even if you had managed to attract other investnts, swapping in other capital would have just continued to dilute the founder’s shares. At best, Mi Yi might have walked away with ten billion; under foreign capital, she might have left Mi Chen empty-handed.”
Yuan Xi looked up at Huo Shiyuan, “Weren’t you afraid your investnt would go down the drain?”
Huo Shiyuan chuckled, “I wasn’t, because I believed in you, and you truly never betrayed my trust.”
Looking into Huo Shiyuan’s affectionate gaze, Yuan Xi felt her heartbeat racing—an amusing thought, considering the palpitations of budding love only felt now that she had children.
The nearly ten billion investnt Huo Shiyuan put into Mi Chen, had it failed, would have been a major blow for Shixi Finance, causing the industry to lose confidence in it. Fortunately, Mi Chen successfully went public, vindicating Huo Shiyuan’s judgnt.
Huo Shiyuan, facing the sleepless Yuan Xi, said, “Join on a trip next door?”
Yuan Xi nodded, “Okay.”
Following Huo Shiyuan, Yuan Xi went to the Fu Mansion. Once inside, she saw Ren Tian morizing English vocabularies, her hair ssy from running her fingers through it.
Fu Qin, seeing Huo Shiyuan, greeted, “Shiyan! Happy birthday. About your collaboration with Fu An…”
Huo Shiyuan looked towards Fu Yixian on the sofa, “I t Fu Yi a couple of days ago. He said that there’s no need to short Fu An’s stocks and that he wouldn’t sell his shares cheaply. Actually, he has no interest in Fu An’s shares as long as you agree to give Ren Tian to him, then he would transfer his shares to you.”
Fu Yixian looked up at Huo Shiyuan and scoffed, “Give Ren Tian to him? Ren Tian is already six months pregnant, what is he dreaming about?”
Ren Tian, morizing vocabularies, gradually softened her voice, nervously picking at her fingernails.
Fu Qin frowned and said, “Shorting Fu An’s stocks? Was this intentional? I really thought you disregarded our years of friendship for Little Xi’s sake.”
Huo Shiyan clasped Yuan Xi’s hands tightly and said, “I indeed had no intention of considering our long-standing friendship.”
Fu Qin frowned and asked, “Fu Yi really said that as long as he gets Ren Tian, he will hand over the stocks willingly? Could that be true?”
Yuan Xi said, “Fu Yi did say that, but I’m not sure about the truth in his words.”
Fu Qin looked towards Ren Tian’s figure in the corner and said, “Brother, Ren Tian and Fu Yi…”
Fu Yixian t Ren Tian’s gaze, “Ren Tian is my legally wedded wife, and I would never give my wife to Fu Yi. As for Fu An Group, if Fu Yi dares to take it, let him try. Let’s see if he has the capability.”
Fu Qin said, “Fu Yi definitely doesn’t have the capability, but the uncle has left quite a few people for Fu Yi.”
Fu Yixian chuckled softly, “Not enough to be a concern.”
Ren Tian reached out and touched her six-month pregnant belly, then glanced at Fu Yixian and lowered her head.
Yuan Xi looked at Fu Yixian, who was strategizing, then at Ren Tian beside him. Fu Yixian’s decision to keep Ren Tian might also be because of Fu Yi, right?
Once Fu Yi’s trouble was resolved, how would Fu Yixian treat Ren Tian?
Knowing Ren Tian’s past, Yuan Xi only wanted this poor girl to have a good life, to be loved by soone truly, but it seed Fu Yixian was not that person.
After leaving the Fu Mansion, Yuan Xi looked up at Huo Shiyan and said, “Did Fu Yixian keep Ren Tian after awakening because of Fu Yi?”
Huo Shiyan placed his hand on Yuan Xi’s shoulder, “Yixian is a responsible person. Since he has decided to keep Ren Tian, he will treat her well.”
“But just now, Ren Tian’s expression didn’t seem too good.”
Huo Shiyan laughed lightly, “Making soone who graduated from junior high take the IELTS to prepare for applying to Ivy League schools abroad, how good do you think her expression can be?”
Yuan Xi said, “Ren Tian is going to study in the United States?”
“Being Mrs. Fu requires a certain level of education. Fu Yixian has already donated a building for her; once Ren Tian’s IELTS scores et the requirents, she can start school this year.”
Yuan Xi said, “I’m actually sowhat envious of Ren Tian; she still has a chance to advance her education.”
Huo Shiyan said, “You also still have a chance.”
Yuan Xi shook her head with a light laugh, “No, work is so busy, and with two children, there’s no need to pursue further studies.”
On their way back to the Huo Family ho, they happened to et Wen Zhuo’s car.
Wen Zhuo’s driver stopped the car, and Wen Zhuo got out and said, “Shiyan, happy birthday.”
Huo Shiyan chuckled lightly, “Are you here to see Fu Qin?”
Wen Zhuo nodded, “Yes, to discuss engagent plans with Fu Qin. It will probably be about ten days until the engagent.”
Yuan Xi thought of her poor little cousin, but she also knew the gap between Liang Hao and Fu Qin. Liang Hao hadn’t even graduated from college yet, while Fu Qin’s family background, capabilities, and work far surpassed her little cousin.
Fu Qin and Wen Zhuo’s union was a strong alliance.
Wen Zhuo said, “When the ti cos for the engagent party, make sure to co early.”
Yuan Xi chuckled and responded, “Sure.”
