Chapter 268: A Lifetime of Siblinghood
Chapter 268: A Lifetime of Siblinghood
Thinking of Lu Jiaxin's ordeal, Su Heming felt a twinge of guilt and said, "I'm sorry about your mother's death because of Yi Chen. We failed to protect you."
Lu Jiaxin smiled and said, "You were both caught up in your own troubles, and Aunt Su's health wasn't good either. It's not your fault. But I visited her in Beijing this time, and her complexion has improved a lot compared to before."
Now that Su Hongying was doing better, the hopes of those who wanted to take her place were dashed. Xie Yichen could also grow up safely and healthily.
Su Heming nodded and said, "My aunt's body has been weakened too much. In the past, when the conditions were not good, she refused to accept the nourishing gifts my eldest brother sent, like fish maw and bird's nest. It's only in the last two years, with the relaxed policies, that she started accepting and consuming them daily."
Life is full of its own challenges for everyone.
Su Heming asked, "My brother said you want to leave Chery. Why? Chery is so profitable now, and you can get a distribution of 30 to 40 million yuan a year. How can you bear to leave?"
"How did you know?"
Su Heming frowned and said unhappily, "He wants to withdraw all the money from the appliance factory, so of course I had to ask about the reason. Jiaxin, Chery is like a golden goose now. Why would you want to give it up? Did my brother do something unreasonable? Let me tell you, don't back down. If it weren't for you, the company wouldn't be this successful. If anyone should withdraw, it should be him."
Lu Jiaxin laughed heartily and said, "Why are you acting against your brother's interests? Aren't you afraid that he'll find out and get angry with you?"
Seeing her expression, Su Heming secretly breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that the reason was not because of his brother's actions, and he was glad because he wanted to be siblings with Lu Jiaxin for life!
After the meal, Su Heming called Xue Mao to join them, and they left together.
Seeing that Xue Mao was still hesitant, Lu Jiaxin smiled and said, "Let's go. Since Boss Su has spoken, we should give him this face."
Xue Mao nodded and said, "Then let's go!"
Sometimes Su Heming felt that fate was truly mysterious. If Xue Mao hadn't saved Lu Jiaxin, he would still be worrying about his next meal instead of living a carefree life with his basic needs taken care of, doing what he loved every day.
After sending Lu Jiaxin to the hotel, Su Heming was still a little worried, so he also booked a room in the same hotel, right next to Lu Jiaxin's room.
Su Heming was feeling a bit tired, so he returned to the hotel, took a hot shower, and then called Su Hexuan: "Big brother, Jiaxin has arrived in Pengcheng and is with me now. I don't know what happened to her."
Su Hexuan was not surprised that he knew, as the two of them were very close: "It's a good thing."
"Good thing? What good thing?"
After learning the ins and outs of the situation, Su Heming scolded, "If it were me, I would have taken the property and never looked back, regardless of whether he lived or died."
Su Hexuan knew his temper too well: "You're just talking out of anger. Taking the property and not caring about your father's life is too heartless. Once she becomes famous, people will use this incident to attack her, and how can she gain people's trust if she acts so unscrupulously?"
Lu Jiaxin's goal was to become a great merchant. It didn't matter for small businesses, but to be a great merchant, one needed to have a good reputation.
Su Heming was just letting off steam, and it was impossible for him to let Lu Jiaxin disregard her own father. Otherwise, she would be drowned in spit: "Big brother, how much money have you raised so far?"
"Two hundred and thirty million."
Su Heming was astonished: "So much? Did you sell the newly bought villa?"
Su Hexuan laughed and said, "No, Grandpa lent me one hundred million. But with Chery's profits, this money can't even buy half of Jiaxin's shares in the company.
Su Heming said, "Big brother, I don't know why Jiaxin wants to leave the company. But you two founded this company together, and now that it's so profitable, I don't think it's right to buy back all the shares. Let her keep some of them."
Su Hexuan agreed, "I'll have a good talk with her when she returns to Hong Kong."
The two brothers chatted for a while longer, and then Su Hexuan suddenly asked if he wanted to spend the Mid-Autumn Festival in Hong Kong City, "My villa has been vacant for several months and is ready to be lived in. Let's spend the festival there."
"So it'll just be Dad, you, and me?" Su Heming asked.
Knowing his disdain for Su Elder, Su Hexuan didn't press the matter, "Yes, just the three of us. But if you're willing to bring your girlfriend along, that would be even better."
If he had the money, Su Heming would have bought the neighboring villa as well, so the brothers could live next to each other and look out for each other. "We broke up."
"You two have been together for over a year, why did you break up?"
"We just didn't feel right for each other. Big brother, if you want Dad to hold a grandchild soon, you better hurry up. I'm still young and not thinking about marriage yet. Alright, I'll hang up now."
After hanging up, Su Heming even yanked the phone cord out, not wanting to hear any more nagging. Despite being under thirty, he was like a monk, which gave him a headache.
Meanwhile, Lu Jiaxin was also chatting with Xue Mao. She had asked him briefly about it at the restaurant, but now she wanted to know more details.
After Xue Mao finished telling her about his situation, he asked about Lu Jiaxin's stay in Hong Kong City, "I heard from Boss Su that the He family bullied you. Is that true?"
He had been very worried, but thankfully Little Boss Su assured him that Sister Jiaxin hadn't suffered any losses, otherwise, he would have gone to Hong Kong City.
Lu Jiaxin smiled and said, "Aunt Su doesn't live with them, and I've only seen them twice in the year I've been in Hong Kong City. It's not really considered bullying, they just looked down on me as a poor relative coming to mooch off them."
"It was Ms. Gu who invited you over, not like you begged them to take you in. There's no need to feel inferior," Xue Mao said.
Lu Jiaxin replied, "They're not important people, so it doesn't matter."
Xue Mao nodded in agreement.
Lu Jiaxin then brought up the topic of Chery, "I want to sell all my shares to Su Hexuan, but he probably won't be able to come up with that much money. We founded this company together, and he probably doesn't want me to withdraw completely."
Xue Mao didn't understand business, but he knew Lu Jiaxin well, "Sister Jiaxin, whatever you need, just tell me. As long as it's something I can do, I'll go through fire and water for you."
Lu Jiaxin couldn't help but laugh, "What's this about fire and water? It's not like we're going to risk our lives. I'm thinking of putting the remaining shares under your name so that it won't affect me."
After all, the company was quite profitable, and Su Hexuan didn't have enough money to buy back all the shares. Keeping the remaining shares for dividends wouldn't be a bad idea.
Xue Mao readily agreed, "Sister Jiaxin, I don't understand these things, but just tell me what to do and I'll do it."
"But I haven't explained it to you yet, how come you agreed so quickly?"
"Sister Jiaxin, I trust that you won't harm me," Xue Mao said.
Of course, Lu Jiaxin wouldn't harm him, but she was worried that others might, "Don't tell anyone about the shares, remember, not anyone."
"Don't worry, I won't tell a soul," Xue Mao assured her.
Lu Jiaxin continued, "From now on, don't casually sign your name or put your fingerprint on documents. Once you do that, you're taking on responsibility. So whenever you encounter such things, be sure to consult a lawyer first. I'll make arrangements for that when the time comes."
Xue Mao readily agreed once again.
