Quick Wear: I'm Really Not a Scumbag

Chapter 342 Phoenix Man’s Younger Brother (18)

——Chen family

The first thing Chen Xuyan and Shen Qi saw when they entered the room was the silent trio.

"Okay, you guys go and have fun." Chen Xiaolong took the things from Chen Xuyan's hand.

-Inside the room

"Why do your parents and your brother's expressions seem a little strange to me? What happened?" Shen Qi was a little puzzled. He spent a lot of time at the Chen family, so how come he didn't notice these things?

"At the previous engagement party, there was some conflict between my brother's girlfriend's family and my family." What happened today obviously intensified the conflict.

Shen Qi sat on the chair, "What's the matter? Tell me about it."

Seeing his curious face, Chen Xuyan gave him a brief explanation.

Shen Qi understood everything after hearing this. "It seems your brother's girlfriend really does look down on your family, otherwise she wouldn't say such things."

"But this is very common. I have a relative who is in a similar situation to your brother. In the end, the marriage between the two people was called off. After the woman gave birth to the child, she left the child to him and asked him for compensation." Now both of them have remarried, and the child is very happy.

After all, I am not short of money, so I will never treat my children badly no matter what.

He had seen a lot of flattery and bullying since he was a child following his parents, but now he could only see others flattering his parents.

Then Shen Qi became a little worried. "She's already pregnant, and my dad has invested so much money in your brother. Your family's financial situation will surely improve over time. Even with all this, they still won't agree to let us get married?"

Chen Xuyan nodded. "Yes. They were very pessimistic about my brother's career and thought he would never amount to anything. I didn't hide the investment from them either. They probably couldn't imagine how huge the investment was."

The Guo family didn't even bother asking any more questions, and their disapproval of Chen Mu was evident in their words.

"Instead, they're worried that my brother is going to take their family's money." In other words, they're afraid that Chen Mu will ask Guo Shanshan to ask them for investment for his career that has no future.

"How much money can someone earn after working honestly all his life?" Shen Qi shook his head, thinking that the Guo family's money was at most not worth the purchase price of his family's house in W City.

"It seems that their family made some money from stock speculation. Look at their arrogant look, they must have made at least a few million. There is also demolition, and they have eight houses in W City." Chen Xuyan smiled. These houses were still okay before, but now they are really not.

Shen Qi nodded, that should be fine, "Which area are the eight apartments in?"

"Suburban."

"Suburbs? That's all over. The price of suburban houses has been cut in half recently. My dad said that if we don't sell them off in the next two years, there is a high possibility that they will drop by 20 to 30 percent." Shen Qi is still very optimistic about his father's investment vision.

His large apartment in the center of W City not only didn't drop in value, but actually showed a slight upward trend. The villa in the suburbs did drop in value a bit, but after all, the total price was there, so the loss was nothing.

His mother had good vision. She didn't let his father be greedy and follow others to speculate in real estate. He bought enough houses for himself and kept enough cash flow.

Shen Qi sighed, "It doesn't matter. It's just that they have poor vision. Your brother will definitely achieve great things in the future and will become rich sooner or later."

"I will definitely have to curry favor with your brother in the future." It would be best not to get married. If I really ask them to borrow money after marriage, they will definitely magnify this little credit ten thousand times.

What this kind of family cares about most is face. Everyone is bossy and superior.

Shen Qi was indeed right, Chen Mu succeeded.

The company later even successfully went public, but it also led to many areas that required a lot of manpower or manual operation being replaced by robots or set programs.

Unmanned factories, unmanned driving, unmanned supermarkets, etc. have emerged one by one.

Instead, manual labor has shifted to the field of control, which has indirectly caused many uneducated and elderly people to become unemployed.

The reputation has been mixed. On the one hand, many high-risk jobs in factories have indeed been replaced by machines, but on the other hand, this has also led to many people losing their jobs.

The progress of the times has left behind many people.

These people still don’t know how to enable them to live the same standard of life as before.

But most of the time, it will disappear silently.

"You worry more than I do." Chen Xuyan turned around with the cup and went out to pour himself a cup of hot water.

Shen Qi quickly said, "Pour me a glass too."

Chen Xu stretched out his hand and hooked his cup.

- In the living room

"Brother." Chen Xuyan called Chen Mu.

"What's going on between you and her?" He asked knowingly because he knew exactly what Chen Mu did in the Guo family.

Chen Mu smiled and said, "Don't ask anything, kid. Just study hard. I'm your brother and I'm fine."

The Guo family’s affairs cannot affect him!

Chen Xiaolong sighed, "Your brother and your unmarried sister-in-law are likely to break up."

There is nothing that cannot be said. Xiaoyan is not young anymore. When I was his age, I had already gone out to work and earn money.

Children nowadays are precious and learn things late. This is not a good thing because they will not be able to withstand any setback in the future.

"It's better to break up, otherwise her parents will bring harm to our whole family in the future. If she gives birth to a child, it will definitely have to ride on your brother's head and shit on him!" Zhong Qian felt a little relieved after saying this.

The son also said he would compensate her?

Compensation is bullshit. It was a matter of mutual consent. Now it's not like before. You can't hold hands and love each other for a lifetime.

How high is the divorce rate now?

You have to queue up and the number of people is limited. It’s very popular.

Besides, the Guo family has plenty of money, they will definitely not treat the child badly. If they really treat the child badly, they will take the child back at any time!

Chen Mu frowned, "Mom, don't talk nonsense, this child is mine too."

Children are innocent too.

"She can't have children anymore. It's very likely that her family will only agree to let me take one of the children away, or not let me take any of them away. I will then send money to the child regularly. Forget it, I'll see how to discuss it with them later." He didn't dare to think about the future.

I can't say this for now. Guo Shanshan's pregnancy has finally stabilized. If I say it, I'm afraid she will have a mental breakdown.

The Guo family would definitely not agree to abortion because they really want these two children.

It's difficult to advance or retreat.

If he marries Guo Shanshan, he will probably never be able to face her and the Guo family again in his life, and he might even be called a "phoenix man" by others.

But if he didn't marry Guo Shanshan, in the eyes of most people, he would be a heartless, ungrateful, and irresponsible scumbag.

On one side is the inability to hold your head up for the rest of your life, and on the other side is public opinion.

"Take your time to think about it. Dad will support you no matter what you do." Chen Xiaolong didn't know what to do.

If he had known earlier, he should have firmly opposed him dating a girl from a wealthy family. Who knew that a girl from a wealthy family would look down on others like this?

Sacrifices will always be necessary. At worst, he can just go to the Guo family and tell them this.

Just let the Guo family vent their anger by beating and scolding them, and they just hope that the Guo family will let them visit the two children from time to time.
