I almost touched the moon

More than half an hour later, Cheng Bowen returned home. When he saw Cheng Che, he showed a hint of surprise and said half-jokingly, "Wow, what a rare visitor."

"When do you plan to apologize to Lawyer Wen and Song Song?" Cheng Che had no intention of reminiscing with him and asked straight to the point.

"Cheng Che." Cheng Bowen looked up at him from the sofa and spoke unhappily.

"Don't forget, I am your father. You and Miss Wen are just boyfriend and girlfriend. I will never allow you to get married. You are young and energetic. I understand that you want to show off in front of your girlfriend, but don't be too aggressive."

"You worry too much." Cheng Che sneered, "Whether Song Song and I get married or not has nothing to do with you, and your words don't count."

"From what you said, it seems that Miss Wen doesn't care much about you." Cheng Bowen showed a playful smile, "I think so too, you are too enthusiastic, and she doesn't like you that much at all."

"What do you know?" Cheng Che sneered, "It's not your turn to dictate my feelings."

Cheng Bowen shook his head and continued to say to Cheng Che, "It seems that my guess was right. She really doesn't care about you that much. Also, if she really cared about you, she wouldn't have come to make a scene today and embarrassed me in front of so many employees. Believe it or not, if Miss Wen makes a scene at the dinner tomorrow, the news that you contradicted me for her will spread throughout the entire group."

Cheng Che found his words even more ridiculous and said with some sarcasm, "You brought this upon yourself. You allowed your employees to make up rumors and slander Lawyer Wen, so she was being polite by not beating you up. You don't think she's thinking about your cooperation with Lawyer Wen, do you? Dad, if you really want this for my own good, then go and apologize to Song Song and Lawyer Wen now."

"Hasn't you already asked Assistant Liu to notify the HR department to fire Manager Huang and Xiao Wu? That's enough." Cheng Bowen sat down and took a sip of tea, his tone becoming increasingly unhappy.

"Ah Che, don't push your luck. I didn't say anything about Lawyer Wen. If you want me to apologize to them, where will I save my face?"

"Don't you have any responsibility?" Cheng Che asked back, "Didn't you acquiesce when they said that? If you really care about the company, you should apologize to Lawyer Wen, otherwise this matter would not be resolved so quickly."

Just then, Cheng Bowen's cell phone rang. He picked it up and said "Hello" with a frown on his face.

After a while, she said, "Please ask Lawyer Wang if Lawyer Wen is available tomorrow. If she is, please make an appointment for me immediately. I will go to Zurich to talk to her in person," and then hung up the phone.

After hanging up the phone, Cheng Bowen immediately said to Cheng Che: "Break up with Wen Song now, and don't have any contact with him anymore!"

"impossible."

"Impossible?" Cheng Bowen sneered, "Look at how ruthless your good mother-in-law is. Her assistant just called Xiao Liu and said that due to our company's unilateral breach of contract, Attorney Wen will no longer have any subsequent cooperation with us.

At the same time, we also need to pay 1.5 times the final payment as liquidated damages, a total of 630 million euros, and we are required to complete the payment within 15 working days. If we cannot complete it, she will file a lawsuit.

She usually doesn't reply to emails even after a long time of trying to contact her, but she is very aggressive when asking for money. She really doesn't leave any room for you. If you continue to associate with Wen Song, you won't even know how you died by then."

Cheng Che continued to ask, "So what? The penalty for breach of contract is stipulated in the contract, and you agreed to it when you signed the contract. You slandered Lawyer Wen in public, don't you deserve it?"

"You are really a good son-in-law to Wen Yiheng." Cheng Bowen laughed in anger, "No wonder they say that mothers-in-law love their sons-in-law. Look at you, your son-in-law, how considerate you are. You rush to give her money. But Ah Che, it's not your turn to make the decision for the group."

Cheng Che thought Cheng Bowen's words were ridiculous and said to Cheng Bowen, "Even if she is not my girlfriend's mother, but just an ordinary person, I don't think you can make up rumors with your employees behind her back. I will advise you to apologize. Mr. Cheng, I am not targeting the person, but the matter."

Cheng Bowen, however, seemed to have not heard what Cheng Che said. He walked up to Cheng Che, touched his shoulder, and said earnestly, "Ah Che, with the personalities of mother and daughter, if one day you don't like Miss Wen anymore, Chairman Tang's today will be your tomorrow. Think it through."

"Do you think I'm you?" Cheng Che asked back with disdain, "I told you not to impose your scumbag mentality on me. I'm not you."

"Son, I've always been curious. You want to find a girlfriend, and you have all kinds of girlfriends. Why do you have to like Miss Wen? In terms of appearance, she is not the most outstanding, and in terms of personality, her personality is really terrible. Why do you like her?"

Cheng Bowen thought about it for a long time but couldn't come to a conclusion. He could only think to himself that maybe Cheng Che was just in a spur of the moment because of her help at the ski resort.

"Can you understand what I'm telling you?" Cheng Che looked at Cheng Bowen with a hint of contempt in his eyes, "Don't you know what you did to my mother?"

"Why are you mentioning your mother?" Cheng Bowen heard Cheng Che mention Xie Huiyin and quickly made up a random excuse, "If your mother were still alive, she would cry to death if she knew you had a girlfriend like this."

Cheng Che couldn't help but sneer after hearing this, and asked back: "Dad, do you know what my mother said to me before she died?"

Cheng Bowen was silent for a while. After a while, he softened his tone and said, "We are talking about your affairs here. Don't mention your mother."

"You don't want me to mention it because you feel guilty, or you just don't want to mention her at all?" Cheng Che stood up, looked down at Cheng Bowen and said indifferently, "So even if I tell you why I like Song Song so much, you won't understand."

Cheng Che glanced at his watch. It was almost ten o'clock in the evening. He had no interest in continuing to chat with Cheng Bowen, so he coldly repeated the purpose of his visit.

"Remember to apologize to Lawyer Wen tomorrow. Song Song doesn't want to see you. I will help you convey her message."

"You've grown too powerful, huh? You dare to order me around." When Cheng Bo heard the tone of Cheng Che's voice, he became even more furious.

"Ah Che, you used to be such an obedient and sensible child. How come you became like this after dating Wen Song? You learned all her bad manners and bad manners."

"Say it again?" Cheng Che was extremely angry after hearing Cheng Bowen's words. He clenched his fists tightly. If the person who said this was not his father, he would definitely beat him.

"Who are you calling uneducated?" Cheng Che said sarcastically, "Why, you spread rumors about someone's mother, and she still had to greet you respectfully? Mr. Cheng, if you still think of me as your son, go and apologize."

"You are simply unreasonable!"

Cheng Bowen looked at his eldest son, who was half a head taller than him, with an angry expression and eyes full of resentment, and suddenly felt a little strange.

"You must have her?" Cheng Bowen asked again, "What's so good about her? And from my perspective as a bystander, she doesn't like you that much. She's with you just because of your family background and social status. If you were just an ordinary athlete with a fixed salary and bonuses today, would you, Miss Wen, even look at you?"

"Don't think everyone is the same as you." Cheng Che said with some disdain, "Mr. Cheng, do you know what love is? Have you ever really had feelings for someone else? Have you ever loved my mom?"

"Can you please stop mentioning your mother?" Cheng Bowen became increasingly annoyed. "There are many things that a child like you cannot understand."

"Yes, I don't understand. I only know that my mother could have gone to ETH for graduate studies, but gave up because of you. You married her only because her family background and talent can help your career, and she has a good temper and is a simple person. She will listen to you in everything."

Cheng Bowen immediately denied it and said, "What do you know? It was your mother's own decision to give up the government-sponsored study abroad. She did it all for you!"

"For me?" Cheng Che sneered, "Was I there at that time? You have never really liked anyone. It's the same with my mom and Aunt Yang, but she is more open-minded than my mom and doesn't want to pay attention to you. And I don't want to talk about your girlfriends. So, you will never understand the feelings between Song Song and me."

"Enough!" Cheng Bowen shouted angrily, "Since you must have her, fine, I respect you. Young people want love, true love comes first, I understand. You think she truly loves you, simple, from today on I won't give you a penny.

You have to pay for your training yourself. I want to see how you can pay for the annual training fee of more than one million euros without spending my money. Do you think you can become a world champion just by training with the national team? Forget about the company. Transfer your shares back to me or your grandfather, or transfer them to A Xuan when he comes of age."

Cheng Che nodded and said, "Whatever. I will pay for the training myself. I don't need you to pay for living expenses. You can hand over the company to whoever you want. I'm not interested in it. But shares are out of the question."

"Cheng Che, did your girlfriend teach you these words, or did your ruthless mother-in-law teach you these words?" Cheng Bowen asked with interest, "You never cared about these things before. Miss Wen is eyeing your shares now?"

"I told you not to put your thoughts into her mind!" Cheng Che was a little angry and spoke louder. "That was left to me by my mother. She put her whole life's efforts into it."

Cheng Che suddenly understood what Wen Song said. Blindly tolerating would only lead to more exploitation. He also had things he wanted to protect: his mother's hard work and his lover.

"What do you mean by your mother's hard work?" Cheng Bowen retorted angrily, "I gave it to her! The group company was also established before we got married. It belongs to my pre-marital property!"

"Really?" Cheng Che showed a helpless and sad sneer, "Do you think I don't know that the resort hotel where you won the Pritzker Prize was designed by my mother?

You became famous with that design, but in the end, her name was not even on the design team list, and they only gave her 20% of the company's shares. My mother didn't care, but what about you? You just enjoyed her achievements with peace of mind, and shamelessly said that the company belonged to you alone. How could you be so shameless?

If it weren't for my mom and grandpa, with your little architectural talent, Mr. Cheng, the group would have gone bankrupt long ago. No wonder my mom told me before she died that I must never become a person like you. "

"What nonsense!"

After hearing Cheng Che's words, Cheng Bowen felt as if the most secret and inferior corner of his heart had been peeped into and exposed. He instantly became furious. When Cheng Che came to his senses, he only felt a burning pain on his left cheek.

He looked at Cheng Bowen in disbelief for a long time before revealing a somewhat bitter smile, "Mr. Cheng, it seems that what I said was right. I don't want the company or any other property, but I can't give you my mother's shares. That's what she deserves, and it's what she left for me."

Cheng Bowen was also shocked by his own actions. Cheng Che had been naughty as a child, especially after his mother passed away, he became a little rebellious and withdrawn, but he never beat him, and even rarely scolded him. This time, for some reason, he actually hit him.

After a long silence, Cheng Che said, "I'll go back first."

"Wait a minute." Cheng Bowen stopped him, "Ache, I feel sorry for your mother, so you can keep the shares. But I can't give the group to you before you and Wen Song separate."

"casual."

Cheng Che said this coldly, turned around and left without looking back.
