Chapter 342 Afraid of becoming dependent on you
Pei Yanzhou never expected that the flames would suddenly burn him.
He coughed unnaturally, "If I had married your sister early, how could I have met you again."
Cheng Xi rolled her eyes at him fiercely, "Forget it, don't you just dislike my sister's low status, so you dated Xia Ziyao even before breaking off the engagement? That's right, Xia Ziyao is from a better family, a daughter of a famous family, you guys They all pay attention to being well-matched.”
Pei Yanzhou was two years old, and he finally understood why Lu Chongli said that it was a terrible thing for a woman to settle old scores.
"Baby, I admit, I used to be old-fashioned, but I don't dislike you. It's just that in my understanding at that time, I thought that the combination of two well-matched people would save a lot of trouble. Two people are on the same platform. , there will also be common topics of discussion. There are many accidents on the road of life, and you can be considered an accident to me."
Pei Yanzhou hugged the person and said, "It's a bit unreasonable for you to blame your sister's affairs on me. Besides, do the Han family deserve to be compared with our Pei family?"
Cheng Xi: "..."
She couldn't help but look up and saw Pei Yanzhou's arrogant and arrogant look.
Pei Yanzhou coughed dryly and said, "The total net worth of so many people in the Han family is only over 100 billion. Our Pei family has left them too far behind."
"..."
That's more than 100 billion.
Cheng Xi felt full of Versailles.
Let her calculate, how many zeros are there in more than 100 billion?
She can't figure it out, she's too bad at math.
Pei Yanzhou couldn't help but raise the corners of his lips when he saw her doubting her life.
He used to think that the money in his bank card was just a number to him.
Now I realize that it is good to show off in front of the woman you like.
"Actually, Xulin Group has been shrinking in the past two years."
Pei Yanzhou said, “In recent years, with the rise of e-commerce platforms and live streaming, many small brands and foreign fashion brands have also entered the country. Xulin Group’s sales have shrunk significantly, and stores have been closed in the past three years. There are more than 2,000 companies, and Yaoting has talked to me many times in private, and he wants to invest in other projects with me."
Cheng Xi was stunned, "When you said that, I remembered that when I was shopping when I was a kid, there were stores selling clothing brands under the Xulin Group everywhere. In recent years, there have been fewer stores. We didn't go in to buy much. Mainly It feels expensive, and the styles are not particularly new. It’s much cheaper to buy clothes online.”
"Xulin Group's physical stores have always been losing money. It was Yaoting's father who planned the e-commerce children's clothing store in advance and recovered some losses."
Pei Yanzhou chuckled, "Yao Ting told me that Mr. Han often scolded his father in private. He always said that it was his father who failed to lead the company well, which caused the company to shrink significantly. In fact, when Mr. Han was handed over to Yao Ting's father, At that time, too many chain stores were opened, and it was already a loss-making business. Fortunately, Yaoting's father made the immediate decision to close the store, and the loss was stopped. The loss was indeed a lot. The market value of Xulin Group at that time was one thousand There are more than 60 billion left, and now there are only over 60 billion left.”
Cheng Xi suddenly realized, "My sister said that Mr. Han seems to prefer Han Qilin's father..."
Pei Yanzhou smiled and said, "It's true. Mr. Han had a hard time when he was a child. It was also at a good time that he caught the trend of clothing and took advantage of the trend. Mr. Han never read any books and was often used by others when he was young. People look down upon him, and the older generation likes to call Mr. Han a nouveau riche.”
"So there is a provincial champion in the family, and Mr. Han protects him closely." Cheng Xi sneered, "What's the use of reading so many books? He's not dirty and disgusting behind his back."
"Since ancient times, it has not been said that reading means a good person. I have never heard of an old saying that says: Since ancient times, there are many scholars who are unkind."
Pei Yanzhou said lightly, "Han Qilin's parents think your sister is not worthy. To be honest, their family thinks too highly of themselves. Although the Su family has declined, Han Qilin is not the successor of the Xulin Group. His parents were once in the education circle." He still has some status. In recent years, he has gotten older and is about to retire. He doesn’t have much real power in his hands. It’s just because Mr. Han is still here.”
Cheng Xi's eyes lit up, and she smiled when she looked at Pei Yanzhou, "Do you really think so?"
"Otherwise, Han Qilin is in his thirties, married for the second time, and has a child. Your sister is only twenty-four and in her prime. The Su family was also a famous family decades earlier. It's a pity that Mr. Su went there. Morning, the two sons I gave birth to are quite mediocre, Su Ziqing..."
Pei Yanzhou paused and said with difficulty: "She really doesn't have a good eye for finding men. She didn't take good care of the Su family in the early years and only thought about helping her husband. When she wants to look back, time and opportunities will not wait for her. .”
Cheng Xi curled her lips and said, "Aunt Su... it's pretty good, but it's hard to open a modeling agency now."
"Why is it so difficult to open? After more than ten years of establishment, the company has not even officially contacted the international track. If I were her, I would have sat in the first row of international fashion shows every spring and autumn." Pei Yanzhou complained.
"..."
Cheng Xi was deeply speechless.
Finally, I felt the gap of chatting with a business genius.
"My sister said... she wanted to revive the Su family and avenge herself. Do you think... there is hope?" Cheng Xi asked tentatively.
"Want to take revenge?" Pei Yanzhou lowered his head and pinched the little face of the woman in his arms, "If you want to avenge your sister, as long as you say a word, I will have Han Qilin's family kneel down to apologize to your sister tomorrow morning. "
Cheng Xi choked.
Just thinking about that scene makes me feel relieved.
However, she thought of what Cheng Yue said and shook her head decisively, "It's up to my sister to take revenge herself. What's the point of relying on others."
"I don't think you want to do it by yourself, but you two sisters don't want to owe me." Pei Yanzhou narrowed his eyes, "Cheng Xi, I am your boyfriend, and it is what I should do to protect the people you care about."
Cheng Xi didn't expect that he guessed right right away, and was a little embarrassed, "Okay, you guessed it right, but I'm also afraid that I will rely on you. Maybe I will be bullied by others in the future, or encounter difficulties, so I will endure it." I can't help but want to ask you for help, you see, I used to like fighting, but after you protect me, I may be more unscrupulous when something doesn't go my way."
"What's wrong with that? You're not a lunatic. Those who beat you are those who provoke you," Pei Yanzhou said with a domineering look. "Men are what women rely on. It is also reasonable to protect the people they like. As it should be."
Cheng Xi's heart was like a string that was struck hard.
She sighed softly, "Of course it's good to be an unscrupulous person. I won't lie to you. Sometimes I envy Pei Feiyue and Mu Xuetong, because no matter what happens to them, you will protect them."
