Chapter 242: Mental Calculation (Part 2)
Chapter 242: Plot with intention (Part 2)
Xu Changqing answered the questions of the young master of the He family without any interest, and directly took him out of the tower and handed him over to his father He Zhengsheng. Seeing that his son returned to normal and walked out, He Zhengsheng was immediately overjoyed and wrote down the contract on the spot without hesitation, selling the land in Tsim Sha Tsui to Chen Hui.
Mao Fangzheng had already left the He family's house with Zeng's family, but only the Tan family still stayed here unwillingly, and seemed to have a sense of luck. When the Tan family saw Xu Changqing leading the young master of the He family out, their face became extremely ugly. Shi Yuan, the spiritual wizard on the side, also changed his face slightly, but soon returned to normal. They went forward to congratulate Xu Changqing and Chen Hui, and then pulled the person in charge of the Tan family aside, whispered a few words in his ear, and then led the disciple and the shy Tan family to claim guilt to He Zhengsheng, and left the He family together. Just as Shi Yuan was talking to the Tan family, Xu Changqing seemed to hear what he said, his mouth was slightly raised, showing a deep smile.
After Chen Hui and He Zhengsheng signed a contract, he said goodbye to He Zhengsheng and left the He family house with Xu Changqing. The Miss He Ling, who had brought them in before, sent them out the same way and reluctantly sent Chen Hui onto the carriage.
In the shaking carriage, Chen Hui looked excited and repeatedly looked at the contract he had just signed in his hand. He felt that the contract would disappear later. Xu Changqing sat opposite him, quietly looking at He Zhai who was away from him. He suddenly asked, "What is your relationship with that lady of the He family?"
"Uh?" Chen Hui was still immersed in the joy of obtaining the land. He was not completely awake and had no time to answer. Until he saw Xu Changqing frowning slightly, he immediately restrained the joy on his face and replied respectfully: "When Mr., Miss He Ling is a good friend of Youqing, and has given Youqing a lot of help in business."
"A good friend?" Xu Changqing narrowed his eyes slightly, stared at Chen Hui coldly, and continued to question: "Are you just an ordinary friend?"
Chen Hui also realized that Xu Changqing's tone was wrong, and it seemed that he was not asking this question casually. He looked at Xu Changqing with a nervous expression, lowered his head, thought for a long time before he slowly said: "The relationship between He Ling and Youqing is indeed closer than ordinary friends," then looked up again and explained anxiously: "But Youqing has never harmed the interests of the Chen family in order to please Miss He Ling. I hope Mr. Don't misunderstand!"
"It doesn't matter whether I misunderstand it. I don't want to interfere in these mundane things. You'd better explain to Chen Weng yourself." Xu Changqing looked at Chen Hui for a long time, and his face gradually calmed down. Just when Chen Hui breathed a sigh of relief, he suddenly said: "If the lady of the He family has always been with you, then congratulations, you are going to be a father!"
The words that Xu Changqing suddenly blurted out were astonishing as a thunder. He was stunned by Chen Hui. His eyes were wide open, and he opened his mouth. He looked at Xu Changqing and forgot to breathe. After a long time, he couldn't hold it in. He breathed a sigh of relief and asked anxiously: "Sir, are you talking about it true? He Ling is really pregnant?"
"The eyes are flying, the cheeks are slightly convex, the jaw contains flesh, and the steps are like stepping on stakes. These are all external appearances that will only occur after pregnancy," Xu Changqing said with a plain expression: "And his energy flows into his son and he has a great chance of being a boy."
The successive surprises made Chen Hui's mentality not adjust for a while. He sat in the car like a fool and smiled silly, muttering to himself: "Haha! I'm going to be a father, I have an heir!"
Xu Changqing looked at Chen Hui calmly from the opposite side. When the excitement in his heart almost passed, he suddenly asked again: "Did you know that the He family helped British people sell opium?"
"Yes." Chen Hui obviously answered casually before he could react, but he soon realized something was wrong. The joy that was originally full of all his body immediately subsided like a tide. Cold sweat as big as beans emerged from his forehead, and his eyes full of horror looked at Xu Changqing with a gloomy face.
"Do you think this matter can be hidden from me?" Xu Changqing's fingers gently tapped the handrail, looking at Chen Hui with cold eyes, and said, "The Chen family occupied half of the Hong Kong business world, and the relationship between the Chen family and the British House of Commons was extraordinary. Even so, no one of the Chen family received the title of Justice of Peace. A small local rich man from the He family actually grew up to be comparable to the Chen family's industry in Hong Kong after Huilan left Hong Kong, and he also won the title of Justice of Peace. If the He family was not a business genius, then he was a dog that made a lot of profits for the British, and the British were willing to support him. The goods that could help the British make the most money were opium."
As Xu Changqing said slowly, Chen Hui felt that the carriage became as cold as winter, the breath he exhaled turned into white mist, and the cold sweat on his forehead turned into ice drops. The surroundings were filled with Xu Changqing's murderous aura, which made his skin feel painful like a sharp blade.
"You should know that although the Chen family is a businessman, they never touch those things that harm the country and the people." Xu Changqing stopped hitting the handrail, leaned down, looked at Chen Hui, who was trembling all over and lowered his head, and said in a deep voice: "Chen Hui, I'll ask you now, you'd better answer honestly, have you touched those things?"
"No." Chen Hui, who had a pale face, replied quickly without hesitation: "Although Youqing will make some shameful tricks in doing business, he keeps in mind the family motto of the Chen family and will never dare to do things that harm the country and the people. I hope the teacher will observe clearly."
After Chen Hui, who lowered his head, he felt Xu Changqing's hand placed on his head. Although his hands were very warm, he could not feel it at all. His body shivered, his eyes closed, and he quietly waited for Xu Changqing's final judgment. The car became particularly quiet, and he didn't even dare to let out his atmosphere. However, in just a few minutes, it made him feel as if several years had passed. It was not until Xu Changqing's hand let go that he breathed a sigh of relief, and his body and mind couldn't help but relax. This joy of rebirth made him feel like the noise of the noise coming from outside the car.
