Quick Transmigration: Saving That Cannon Fodder

Chi Liquan watched Chi Xing go upstairs, and seeing that his actions and expression were normal, he turned to talk to Fu Hehai.

"Brother Fu, what did you just say?"

"Haha, sorry, I didn't hear you clearly just now."

Fu Hehai subconsciously straightened the hem of his suit jacket and gave Chi Liquan a somewhat ingratiating smile when they met his gaze.

“Akahoshi goes to the same school as my youngest son, so we should know each other.”

Chi Liquan raised an eyebrow and laughed heartily:

"Oh? What a coincidence. My little Xing is well-behaved and sensible. She only thinks about studying. Haha, she said she would get first place and bring it back for me to see. She rarely talks about making any friends."

"Haha, you guys are really good at raising children. But I heard that Akahoshi hangs out with some shady characters at school and even transferred classes for them. Won't that affect his studies?"

After saying this, Fu Hehai seemed genuinely concerned about Chi Xing's studies and analyzed:

“My son suddenly came home with injuries last week, saying that his classmates beat him up. He not only had broken bones, but he was also too scared to go to school to take the monthly exam. I heard that Akahoshi became the deskmate of the thug who beat him up.”

"I was thinking, wouldn't this affect Akahoshi's studies? What if someone goes astray and leads Akahoshi astray?"

These words clearly indicate that Chixing has gone astray. She's transferred to a different class and is now sitting next to a hoodlum, who is the same hoodlum who beat up the youngest son of the Fu family.

Chi Liquan's expression hardened: "Are you telling the truth? That brat really didn't say he transferred classes. But why was your son beaten up, and why didn't the school teachers do anything about it? Who were those thugs who did it?"

Chairman Chi, who is decisive and efficient in the company, rarely talked about his children with others in the past.

All of this was shattered after Akahoshi was born. When Akahoshi was in elementary school, someone bullied him, and Akahoshi personally went to the school to seek justice for his son.

In reality, he didn't need to do anything personally; it was just because he loved his youngest son.

Fu Hehai came to visit the Chi family precisely because he saw this point. If possible, he even wanted his youngest son to marry Chi Xing.

He quickly said, "Well, my son didn't explain it clearly. He only said that the man said something to Akahoshi, and Akahoshi sided with him. The children have become estranged because of these misunderstandings, which is not good for our two families."

Chi Liquan picked up the tea from the coffee table, took a sip, and smiled.

"Really? I'll ask him later. But making friends is a matter for the kids themselves. They're grown up and have their own ideas."

He raised his hand and poured himself a cup of tea, then poured one for Fu Hehai.

Fu Hehai quickly picked up his teacup and took a sip: "That's true, but the child is growing up, so we have to think about his future and prevent him from being deceived by those country bumpkins from who-knows-where."

After he finished speaking, the living room fell silent, and Chi Liquan continued to smoke his cigar with a faint smile.

The atmosphere was a little awkward. Just as Fu Hehai was wondering how to start the conversation, a middle-aged woman walked in from outside.

She was dressed in an elegant and luxurious cheongsam, with a maid carrying large and small bags behind her.

The moment she appeared, Chi Liquan's somewhat gloomy eyes suddenly lit up.

"You're back! How was your trip?"

Song Yunyi smiled when she saw her husband: "I'm so happy. They all praised my outfit. You're amazing for getting that master tailor to make this dress for me."

"Yes, that's because my wife is naturally beautiful; she looks good in anything."

Chi Liquan made no attempt to hide his love for his wife.

Song Yunyi went inside and found that there was another person there. She immediately resumed her dignified demeanor.

Fu Hehai took the initiative to greet her, so Song Yunyi had no choice but to sit down and chat with him.

Perhaps because Song Yunyi was there, Chi Liquan's fierce aura completely disappeared, and he extinguished the cigar in his hand, quietly watching her speak.

Fu Hehai then explained the purpose of his visit.

"When Father came home last time, he kept praising Chixing as a good boy, and he's about the same age as our Xiaoxiao. If the two boys could get married, our two families would be so much better off in the future..."

After he finished speaking, Song Yunyi blinked her big eyes. She was well-maintained and looked like she was in her early thirties, even though she was almost fifty. When she smiled, she revealed shallow dimples.

"A marriage alliance? Hahaha, isn't that a bit too early? Our Xingxing is still young, and his older brother isn't even born yet."

When she talked about her eldest son, a worried expression appeared on her face:

"If it's about marriage, why not ask Chi Jin? He's already thirty years old, and who knows when he'll bring me a daughter-in-law."

When Fu Hehai heard that it wasn't Chi Xing, the smile on his face froze. He thought to himself, "My son will be eighteen next year. How can he find a thirty-year-old man?"

Before he could refuse, Song Yunyi clapped her hands and laughed:

“In our family tradition, it’s best for a son to marry someone who can carry on the family line. By the way, can your little one have children? If we’re going to have a marriage alliance, we’re really eager to have a grandson, and we want both a son and a daughter, the more the better, so that our family can prosper.”

Fu Hehai said awkwardly, "Our son's name is Xiaoxiao."

Song Yunyi suddenly realized: "Oh~ Xiao Xiao, can he have a son?"

Fu Hehai: ...

Chi Liquan looked at him with doting eyes and whispered a reminder: "His child is a son, so he can't have more children."

Song Yunyi's smile faded: "Oh dear, that won't do. Our Xiao Jin likes women, your son isn't suitable."

Chi Liquan agreed with his wife: "Wife is right. Why don't we ask Xiao Jin another day? She's thirty years old and hasn't brought anyone home yet."

Fu Hehai was completely fooled by the couple, and somehow he said goodbye and left. On his way home, he suddenly slapped his thigh:

"Wait a minute, didn't I ask about Akahoshi? When did it become Akajin?"

At the Chi family residence, Song Yunyi stared with her beautiful eyes, twisting Chi Liquan's arm with one hand.

"If I hadn't come back, would you have really agreed to this marriage?"

Chi Liquan looked pained and said, "Madam, you're wronged! I didn't listen to a word he said. You know, if it weren't for Old Master Fu's connections, how could I have let Fu Hehai in?"

"Hmph, that's more like it. Let me tell you, our children don't need to be married off. We're not short of money."

Song Yunyi was furious.

Chi Liquan quickly reassured her, "Madam is right."

"Oh, right, my son just got back. He's upstairs right now. I heard he met some thug and got into a fight at school."

Song Yunyi looked incredulous: "Xingxing is such a well-behaved girl, how could she be beating people up with thugs?"

Chi Liquan shook his head: "I don't know, that's what Fu Er said."

Fu Er is Fu Hehai, and Fu Da is the current president of the Fu Group.

Chi Liquan only spoke a few words to Fu Er because of his relationship with Old Master Fu. If it weren't for this relationship, with Fu Er's abilities, he probably would never have had the chance to meet Chi Liquan in his lifetime.

"Old Master Fu dotes on Fu Hehai's youngest son, and he mentioned the matter of a marriage alliance to me last time."

Chi Liquan did not agree. Anyone with eyes could see that not agreeing was a polite refusal.

It seems like fewer people are watching; is it because of the high school entrance exam?
