A great director who grew up happily

Chapter 113 Parents’ Sudden Attack

Chen Jinnian had just opened the door and walked in when he saw Chen Ming going in and out of the bathroom, while Su Ying was sitting quietly on the sofa. "Dad, Mom, why are you here?"

"You didn't go home last night. If I had come to see you, you would have been seduced away by that little girl." Su Ying glanced at him coldly.

"Mom, you're just kidding. Only your son can charm the little girl. How could anyone else charm your son?" After putting down the things in his hand, Chen Jinnian sat down obediently next to Su Ying.

"Don't try to play tricks on me. I don't know what's on your mind. You think about the little girl upstairs every day, right? I don't even think you still have your mother in your heart." Su Ying reached out and pinched his cheek, her sharp eyes seemed to see through him.

Chen Jinnian could only hold his mother's arm and said with an embarrassed smile, "How is that possible? Mom, you are definitely overthinking it." Then he continued to ask, "Dad, what are you looking for?"

"Nothing. I'm checking the floor heating for you. It's going to be turned on in a couple of days. If we don't check it in advance, what if there's a leak? We've had this house for many years. I remember we bought it when you were in kindergarten."

"Heating? So soon?" Chen Jinnian only realized when he heard this word that winter was coming.

"What's so fast about that? Today is the beginning of winter. I'll bring you two sets of clothes." After saying that, Su Ying was about to get up from the sofa, but because she was pregnant, her body became a little heavy.

Chen Jinnian also quickly stood up and supported his mother's arm.

"Old Chen, don't do that for now. Take us to eat quickly. Jinnian is hungry."

"Okay, son, what do you want to eat? How about we go for hot pot? I think the place we went to last time was pretty good, and it's not far from here." Chen Ming wiped his hands and said.

"Last time? That's not that far away? Chen Ming, who did you eat with last time? How come I don't know?" Su Ying said in a slightly puzzled tone, but to Chen Ming, it seemed like the calm before the storm.

Realizing he had let something slip, Chen Ming nervously said, "Last time...last time was when Qiao Weidong treated us."

"When is the treat? Why? Who else is there besides you?"

Three fatal questions in a row.

Chen Jinnian winked at his father while walking out with his mother's arm around him. "What could Uncle Qiao want to talk to my dad about? It's nothing more than eating, drinking, and chatting."

"You only know how to cover up for him. Do I care about his eating and drinking? I just don't want him to get involved with Qiao Weidong privately, for fear that he will lead your father astray." Su Ying said as she walked. Ever since Qiao Weidong cheated on her and got divorced, Su Ying became more and more annoyed the more she saw him.

His handsome face turned into a shifty one.

Chen Ming was relieved to see that his son had temporarily covered up the problem for him, and he quickly got off the car.

"Don't worry, my dad doesn't have the guts to do that. Besides, he'll always ask you for money before he even fills up his gas tank. Who would care if he wanted to be bad? Next year, we'll transfer all of my dad's property to our name and cut off his financial resources."

Chen Jinnian said this in a mean way, just like Su Ying's lackey. Fortunately, Chen Ming left quickly and did not hear these hurtful words.

"Well, I think it's okay." Su Ying nodded, thinking that this suggestion was very good.

Today is the weekend, and it is also the Beginning of Winter, so many people choose to eat mutton hotpot today. Almost every restaurant is full, and they waited outside the store for a long time before entering.

Although Qiao Weidong's character is questionable, he is quite good at eating, drinking and having fun, especially in various restaurants in Beijing. He has tried them all and has quite a lot of experience.

Therefore, the taste of the restaurant where he invites guests is naturally guaranteed.

"Mom, try it, the mutton here is really good."

"Just eat it yourself, no need to give it to me. It's not like I don't have hands." Su Ying said with a smile. After hearing her son's "sweet words" along the way, she had long forgotten about Chen Ming.

Chen Ming looked at the scene of loving mother and filial son, and the heavy stone in his heart fell to the ground. After thinking it over again and again, he also told his plan to withdraw from the investment company.

"Does Uncle Qiao know about such a big thing?" Chen Jinnian looked up. He did not object to this matter. On the contrary, he would feel more at ease if his father helped him manage the company in the future.

"I don't know, but I'm thinking of starting the conversation next week to see who among them wants the shares I have," said Chen Ming.

"Is it easy to sell? Your current share is not low. This is not a small amount of money." Su Ying didn't want Chen Ming to do this for a long time. He was running back and forth between the two companies every day and was very busy.

"It's okay. The market is quite hot now and everyone wants to invest money in it." Since the real estate market began to increase prices to reduce inventory last year, it has actually entered a cycle of economic boom.

It was not until the outbreak of the epidemic that all bubbles were burst and the investment market began to turn around and dive. Of course, this was not called so in name, and it was covered up with a bunch of "bottoming out" and "normal economic fluctuations."

"Okay, then go ahead and do it. I support you in this." Su Ying gave him an affirmative answer.

They were chatting at home when they suddenly heard an angry voice, "Okay, is this your answer? Then don't regret it."

Everyone fell silent, put down their chopsticks, and looked towards the source of the sound. At a table by the window, a beautiful woman with long hair stood up, angrily picked up the brand-name bag on the seat, and walked quickly towards the door of the store.

People who were close could see the tears welling up in her eyes.

The sound of footsteps continued to ring out, and everyone watched each other leave the hot pot restaurant. Then the noise returned to normal, but compared to before, many people were now discussing the melon they had just eaten.

"Son, why does that person look like Xiao Meng to me?" Su Ying asked, holding chopsticks in one hand and tugging her son's clothes with the other.

After seeing the beautiful woman leave, Chen Jinnian quickly turned his head to look at the place where the quarrel had just taken place. He saw a man with his back to him. He reached out and lifted the wine glass on the table, raised his head and drank it all in one gulp.

Although he couldn't see the other person's face, he could tell it was Qiao Weidong from the familiar back and slightly sparse hair on his head.

"Yes, that was Xiao Meng just now, and Uncle Qiao was also inside." Chen Jinnian gestured in the direction of Qiao Weidong with his eyes.

Chen Ming also noticed it. He stood up and wanted to go over to take a look.

"Sit down, what does this have to do with you?" Su Ying called out to him.

"We are all friends, let's see the situation." Chen Ming said in a low voice.

"Don't meddle in the affairs of this couple."

But Chen Jinnian beside him said thoughtfully, "I'd really like to know what Uncle Qiao's answer is."

After hearing this, Chen Ming pursed his lips unconsciously.
