"Yes." The assistant responded and left.
Soon, Yang Tiancheng knocked and entered, asking, "President Chen, you called for me?"
Chen Guanglei invited Yang Tiancheng to sit down and introduced, "Young Master Bai, this is my company’s Manager Yang Tiancheng, Manager Yang, this is the young master from the Bai Family of the capital."
The big shot from the capital?
What does Chen Guanglei mean by introducing me to such an influential young master?
While Yang Tiancheng speculated inwardly, he respectfully said, "Young Master Bai."
Bai Kunlin sized up Yang Tiancheng with a glance, merely nodding slightly.
Before the other party proved to be of value, he couldn’t be bothered to speak.
"Manager Yang, here’s the thing..." Chen Guanglei explained the situation, then said, "We’re hoping to see if you can come up with any good methods to help Young Master Bai."
When Yang Tiancheng heard that Bai Kunlin wanted to deal with Xu Yang and take over Jang De Lao’s ownership, his eyes revealed excitement.
He had a grudge against Zhao Hai, Xu Yang’s father-in-law, who is still the General Manager of Jang De Lao.
If Bai Kunlin took Jang De Lao away, Zhao Hai certainly wouldn’t be the General Manager anymore.
If Bai Kunlin crushed Xu Yang, Zhao Hai would face utter defeat in the business world, probably faring worse than him.
He never thought he’d have the chance to surpass Zhao Hai in this lifetime, especially since Zhao Hai’s son-in-law was Xu Yang, who was set to become the future’s richest man.
But now, an opportunity had presented itself.
With gleaming eyes, Yang Tiancheng immediately devised a venomous plan, "I think we could do this... What do you think?"
Bai Kunlin’s eyes lit up, "Good, if this works out, Xu Yang won’t hesitate to hand over fifty-one percent of Jang De Lao’s shares!"
"This method is indeed good, with a high chance of success," Chen Guanglei nodded, then said to Bai Kunlin, "Young Master Bai, I think you’re asking for too little with just fifty-one percent of Jang De Lao’s shares. You should take all the shares Xu Yang holds. Since we’re making a move, why leave any room for escape?"
Thinking it over, Bai Kunlin agreed, "You’re right, then I’ll demand all of Xu Yang’s shares in Jang De Lao."
...
Evening.
Xu Yang returned home from work, Zhao Yuxin had almost finished preparing dinner.
Not long after, Zhao Hai and Zhou Ruyan arrived.
Inviting the two of them in, Xu Yang and Zhao Hai chatted over tea while Zhou Ruyan went to help in the kitchen.
"Dad, how is everything at the company?" Xu Yang casually asked.
In fact, he was well aware of the situation.
He had just received a report from Ma Yangrong that afternoon.
Jang De Lao’s development was on track, now expanding into second-tier cities.
They were preparing to move into third-tier cities.
With more third-tier cities, once the expansion was complete, Jang De Lao’s valuation would undoubtedly exceed one hundred billion.
"All is well..." Zhao Hai briefed him on the status, consistent with Xu Yang’s awareness.
"Husband, dad, dinner is ready!"
At that moment, Zhao Yuxin and Zhou Ruyan came out of the kitchen, bringing the dishes to the table.
The family enjoyed a happy dinner together.
After the meal, Zhao Yuxin and Zhou Ruyan cleared up the dishes, and the four sat down together for tea and fruit while chatting.
Zhao Hai began, "Have you two set a date for your wedding?"
They had mentioned going on a trip, taking wedding photos, and then looking for a date to hold their wedding upon their return.
Now that they were back, it was natural for him to inquire.
Once a wedding date was set, they would need to start preparing.
Such as where to hold the wedding, what kind of scale, whom to invite, whether to send out invitations or notify by phone, etc.
Xu Yang replied, "Not yet, we invited you over today because we wanted to hear your thoughts as well. What do you think would be a suitable time?"
Zhao Hai shook his head, "You two should decide on your own, we don’t want to interfere. Ask your parents."
It’s best to let Xu Yang and Zhao Yuxin decide for themselves; it’s not appropriate for me to interfere. Whatever the son-in-law and daughter like will be fine.
Xu Yang gave a wry smile and said, "I asked my parents, and they said the same thing too."
Zhao Hai laughed and said, "Then you two decide for yourselves, as long as it’s a suitable date for the wedding leave, whatever you like is fine."
All Xu Yang could say was, "Okay, we’ll discuss it again and see when would be a good time."
Zhao Hai suddenly said, "Oh right, there’s some good news I have to tell you, Ru Yan is pregnant."
Actually, whether Zhou Ruyan had children or not wasn’t that important to him.
After all, he already had a daughter.
But it was different for Zhou Ruyan; she did want to have a child of her own.
She didn’t want to get married before because she hadn’t found the right person.
Now that she was married, naturally, she would want to be a mother.
"What!" Zhao Yuxin exclaimed in surprise as she looked at Zhou Ruyan, "Sister Ru Yan, is it true? Am I going to have a little brother or sister?"
Zhou Ruyan blushed slightly and said, "Um, I found out a week ago."
"That’s great." Zhao Yuxin said excitedly, "I’m going to have a little brother or sister, there’ll be someone to play with, hehe."
Xu Yang looked at Zhao Yuxin speechlessly and said, "Little brothers and sisters aren’t there just to play with."
"Uh..." Zhao Yuxin said, "I’m just too happy, okay? I can take care of the little brother or sister in the future."
Zhou Ruyan said, "You can have a child too, so the two kids can play together, which would be great company for each other."
Xu Yang said somewhat oddly, "If that happens, the two kids will be about the same age, but with an entire generation in between them." Explore more stories at NovelBin.Côm
Hearing his words, the three of them all smiled wryly.
Isn’t that the case?
The child of Xu Yang and Zhao Yuxin would have to call the child of Zhao Hai and Zhou Ruyan uncle or aunt.
"Sister Ru Yan, now that you are pregnant, you shouldn’t go to work anymore. Just rest well at home," said Zhao Yuxin.
"It’s still early though, I should at least wait a while. I’ll take a rest when it really becomes inconvenient," Zhou Ruyan replied, shaking her head.
It wasn’t noticeable yet; she still looked like a normal person.
But when the signs become more obvious, for the baby’s safety, she would rest at home.
"That’s true," agreed Zhao Yuxin with a nod.
The group chatted until after nine o’clock, and then Zhao Hai and Zhou Ruyan left.
Xu Yang and Zhao Yuxin walked them to the door, watching as they got into the car and drove away.
Zhao Yuxin said wistfully, "Dad and Zhou Ruyan are having a baby, and that’s really great news."
Xu Yang asked, "When shall we have a baby?"
Zhao Yuxin thought for a moment and said, "Let’s do it after the wedding. I don’t want to wait too long."
Xu Yang said, "I’ll listen to you; whenever you say we should have one, that’s when we’ll have one."
Zhao Yuxin nodded sweetly and then asked, "Honey, do you prefer a boy or a girl?"
Xu Yang replied, "Boy or girl, it’s all the same to me, but I prefer a girl."
Zhao Yuxin giggled and said, "From what you’re saying, you might become a real daddy’s girl, you know."
Xu Yang laughed and said, "Maybe, but there’s nothing wrong with being a daddy’s girl."
The couple continued chatting and didn’t go back to the villa; instead, they went for a walk along the river outside the community.
It had been a long time since they took a walk like this.
Many residents nearby would come out for a walk in the evening, especially during this refreshing autumn season.
As they walked, they suddenly saw a crowd gathered ahead, not knowing what had happened.
"Husband, let’s go check it out."
Zhao Yuxin took Xu Yang’s hand and hurried over.
