What's wrong with being a salted fish?

Chapter 154 Are you not satisfied that my wife is me?

Yesterday, after Bai Li took Wan Linlin and left Xu Wenhao, Xu Wenhao was depressed and found a place to drink.

Around dinner time, Xu Wenhao returned home with red cheeks and smelling of alcohol.

When he opened the door, both Xu's father and mother were sitting on the sofa with serious expressions, as if they were waiting for him to come back.

But none of the three of them spoke.

Seeing this, Xu Wenhao snorted in his heart: What are you doing? You look like you are here to call for an explanation.

Finally, it was Xu's mother who spoke first: "Have you eaten?"

Xu Wenhao took off his coat first, then began to take off his shoes. He nodded and said, "I ate it."

Father Xu was wearing glasses and reading a newspaper. When he heard Xu Wenhao's words, he immediately said sarcastically, "It seems that you didn't drink too much. You still remember to eat."

Xu Wenhao was upset and didn't want to communicate with them, so he planned to go upstairs to rest.

Suddenly, Father Xu slammed the newspaper on the coffee table: "Did I let you go?"

Mother Xu touched her chest and said, "Oh, please keep your voice down."

Xu Wenhao stopped and stood where he was, with an intriguing expression on his face.

"You're not working but going out to drink. Who's going to do your project? Do you still have me as your father?" Father Xu looked dissatisfied and spoke sternly.

Xu Wenhao might have been drunk. After hearing what his father said, he leaned against the wall and then said nonchalantly, "It's just one day's absence. The project won't disappear. Why are you in such a hurry?"

Father Xu was furious at his attitude: "Is this the way you talk to me?!"

As he spoke, Father Xu picked up the ashtray on the coffee table and threw it at Xu Wenhao. It landed at his feet with a loud bang and then broke into pieces.

Xu Wenhao frowned slightly, and the flying glass fragments hit his leg: Hiss - it hurts a little.

Seeing that Mr. Xu was so angry, Mother Xu hung her head and said nothing, and did not dare to plead for Xu Wenhao.

Just like Xu Wenhao said last time, she has no say in this family.

Xu Wenhao drank a lot in the afternoon, and his mind was still not clear. He didn't think he had done anything wrong, so he didn't plan to apologize. Instead, he continued to provoke Xu's father: "If you have the guts, hit me on the head!"

Father Xu was so angry that he almost died. He yelled at Xu Wenhao, "You still don't think you're wrong, right? Last time, you signed the contract without even looking at it. If your assistant hadn't discovered the problem with the decimal point in the amount in time, the company would have lost 90 million!"

Xu Wenhao still didn't care, but his expression turned ugly. He felt that his father just liked to hold on to things like this: "I already said it was an accident! Why do you always like to bring up the past!"

After saying this, he staggered upstairs without waiting for Xu's father to scold him again.

This made Xu's father very angry. The Xu family is no longer the same as before. The title of number one in City A was taken away by the Duan family a few years ago.

Father Xu was unwilling to give up and wanted to fight for it again, hoping to take the first place back from the Duan family. However, he did not expect that the Xu family had been on a downward trend in recent years. If this situation continued, in a few years, they would not even be able to compare with the Bai family!

That's why Father Xu placed all his hopes on his only son, hoping that he could take some responsibility and lead the Xu family back to its peak.

Later, after Xu Wenhao joined the company, Xu's father observed Xu Wenhao for several months, but found that Xu Wenhao had a lot of thoughts, but none of them were focused on work.

He doesn't look at the reports, doesn't push for projects, and doesn't care if orders are lost; when he is in a bad mood, he can't be found in the company!

Father Xu sighed helplessly in his heart but he could only work harder. There couldn't be no reliable person in the family!

But in his heart, he gradually developed a lot of dissatisfaction with Xu Wenhao.

Today, he had an appointment with representatives from other companies to discuss a project in the afternoon, but at the last minute his secretary reported to Xu's father that Xu Wenhao could not be found. He did not answer the phone, did not reply to messages, and later even turned off his phone.

At that time, Xu's father wanted to find his rebellious son Xu Wenhao, but he knew that it was more important to negotiate the project first.

Unable to find anyone, he had to discuss the project on behalf of Xu Wenhao.

But when Xu's father arrived there, he found out that the other party's representative came this time to refuse to cooperate with Xu's company.

Father Xu didn't understand. Didn't they have a pleasant conversation before? Why did the other party turn hostile so suddenly?

Father Xu held the other person's hand and asked in a nice voice if there was any misunderstanding between them.

The representative of the other party had an ugly expression on his face. He pulled his hand back fiercely and spoke harshly, not giving face to Xu's father at all.

He told Xu's father that they were actually very satisfied with the conditions proposed by Xu in the beginning and even prepared the contract. However, Xu Wenhao thought the offer was too much and asked them to invest an additional 10 million and reduce their profits by five percentage points.

They were not fools, so how could they agree to this? As a result, Xu Wenhao waved his hand to say that if they disagreed, there was no point in discussing it, and then he drove them out.

The representative of the other party also said that they came this time not only to refuse cooperation, but also brought a message from their boss, stating that they would no longer have any cooperation with Xu in the future.

After saying that, the other party left without even taking a sip of Xu's tea.

Father Xu felt dizzy at the time. He never expected this result.

He covered his chest, breathing rapidly, and sent people to find Xu Wenhao. He wanted to settle the score with this rebellious son!

As a result, his subordinates told him that Xu Wenhao was drinking alone in the bar.

Father Xu was going crazy. In broad daylight, he left the company first, screwed up the cooperation, didn't come back to work, and went out to drink. Was Xu Wenhao so confident that he wouldn't cause trouble for him? !

Today, Xu's father got off work early in order to go home and find Xu Wenhao to question him. However, the result made him even more angry. Xu Wenhao no longer took him seriously at all!

He has given so much to the Xu family in his life, not to destroy it in Xu Wenhao's hands!

Xu's mother tried to be a peacemaker. She poured a cup of tea for Xu's father and said, "Calm down. Your son is still young!"

Father Xu suddenly blocked it with his hand, and the scalding tea splashed on Mother Xu's hand. She screamed and let go of her hand, the cup fell to the ground, and the tea splashed on her legs again.

Mother Xu covered her aching leg and looked at Father Xu with tears in her eyes, not understanding why this man was angry with her.

Father Xu just watched coldly, becoming even more annoyed by her attitude. He raised his hand and slapped Mother Xu in the face, his voice dark: "Little? He's almost 30, if he's still little now, when will he grow up! He has no respect for his elders, and he's looking up to others but not being able to achieve what he wants. How on earth did you raise your child!"

As he spoke, Father Xu stood up. He did not even look at the injured Mother Xu, and kept saying, "Mother and son are the same!"

Looking at her husband's indifferent back, Xu's mother curled up on the sofa, covering her face and sobbing.

The next morning, Xu Wenhao ran into Xu's father as soon as he came downstairs. Both the father and the son were in a bad mood.

Xu Wenhao entered the restaurant and wanted to take a bun and leave, but his father slapped him on the hand: "Eat! You don't deserve to eat! You messed up my project and you still have the nerve to eat! I just spoiled you too much! Get out! If you mess up the next project, get out of the Xu family!"

Xu Wenhao covered his hand that was slapped away and glared at his father angrily: "If you don't want to eat it, then don't eat it! Do you think I care? You don't need to say more, I will also complete the project well!"

It was obvious that his credibility with his father had dropped to negative. Father Xu took the newspaper and sat in the main seat, not holding much hope for his words: "Get out! Don't get in my way here!"

Xu Wenhao, who had just been kicked out of the house, sat in the car and thought that he would definitely need sponsorship to hold a fashion show, but his network of contacts was pitifully small. He had already approached many people before, but when they heard that he hadn't even prepared the design draft, they quickly rejected his request.

Xu Wenhao clenched his right fist and slammed it hard on the steering wheel, and the car immediately honked its horn.

You guys who look down on others! Who are you looking down on? You can have as many design drafts as you want!

But the most important thing is investment. Even if he invests his savings, it is not enough.

At this time, he thought of Bai Li again. Although his father regarded the Bai family as a rival, he did not! If possible, he even wanted to become the son-in-law of the Bai family!

Bai Li is beautiful, well-educated, and has an outstanding family background. It would be a great honor to have a wife like this!

There are only a few talented young men in City A. Except for those who married young, Mr. Bai would definitely look down on the rest of the playboys. Maybe the other party is also very satisfied with him?

Thinking of this, Xu Wenhao still felt a little sorry for Wan Linlin in his heart. Although Wan Linlin was also good-looking and in line with his aesthetic, she was in no way comparable to Bai Li.

He even thought shamelessly that if Wan Linlin knew about it, she would understand him. At worst, he could marry Bai Li and then support Wan Linlin outside. In this circle, couples play their own games, and he believed that Bai Li would understand him.

Besides, if his fashion show is successful, the profits will be quite high. I believe Mr. Bai will be interested.

I have to say that Xu Wenhao is a fantasist.

So, with this thought in mind, Xu Wenhao happily drove to the Bai family.

The result was different from what he had imagined. Not only was Mr. Bai not curious about the project, but he seemed to be perfunctory towards him; and Bai Li's attitude towards him was also very bad. Xu Wenhao subconsciously thought that Wan Linlin had said something to Bai Li about himself behind his back, otherwise how could he explain why Wan Linlin appeared in the Bai family!

On this day, Xu Wenhao was invited by a friend to attend a party of a rich second-generation in the circle.

While others were having fun and frolicking, Xu Wenhao was sitting alone in a corner, drinking dejectedly.

Several days have passed and Mr. Bai hasn't contacted me. It seems that my investment is gone.

"Hey, Master Xu, why are you playing here alone?"

Suddenly, someone patted Xu Wenhao on the shoulder.

Xu Wenhao turned around and found that the person coming was Han Wenyu, a well-known playboy in the circle.

It is said that he is not particular about gender and brings all kinds of people in and out of the hotel almost every day. His famous saying in the circle is that he never sleeps with the same person twice.

However, because he is generous, there are still many people willing to spend a night with him and then part ways amicably.

However, he had a bad reputation in the circle, and the prominent people in the circle were unwilling to have anything to do with him, so most of his playmates were illegitimate children without a legitimate status.

But such a playboy is Xu Wenhao's good friend.

Even the idea of ​​keeping a substitute was suggested by Han Wenyu to Xu Wenhao.

Xu Wenhao obviously didn't want to talk to him, so he pushed Han Wenyu's hand away and said, "Don't mention it. I can't find anyone to invest in me, and I'm worried."

Han Wenyu sat next to him with a glass of wine: "Hey, what about your Xiaoqing? Go and vent. Isn't this Xiaoqing's responsibility?"

Hearing him mention Wan Linlin, Xu Wenhao became even more depressed: "She was forced to run away by my mother."

"Then you are quite unlucky." Han Wenyu laughed, and then he seemed to see someone, reached out and patted Xu Wenhao on the shoulder, "Hey, brother, look at that!"

"What?" Xu Wenhao looked in the direction Han Wenyu pointed and saw a beautiful woman in a white fishtail skirt. She was holding a glass of wine and looked shy, as if it was her first time to attend such an occasion.

Han Wenyu crossed his legs and took a sip of wine: "Don't say that I won't help you. That's Mr. Lu's only daughter, Lu Qiao. She's simple and has a lot of money, so it's easy to cheat. Aren't you in need of investment? Listen to me, pick her up, and the money will come."

After listening to Han Wenyu's words, Xu Wenhao would be lying if he said he was not moved, but he was still hesitant: "I don't know how to talk to her." He was not like Han Wenyu who could say sweet words as soon as he saw the person he liked.

Han Wenyu shook her head, sighing that he was useless, and then took out a small paper bag from her pocket: "Let me tell you this, sleep with her, she is so innocent, she will definitely be willing to marry you, then when you ask for investment, Mr. Lu will definitely agree."

Xu Wenhao nodded blankly and took the small paper bag: "What is this?"

Han Wenyu stretched out her index finger and placed it in front of her lips, whispering to him, "It's a good thing to help. Don't worry, there are no side effects. I have used it many times."

After saying that, Han Wenyu stood up and patted Xu Wenhao on the shoulder: "I won't talk to you anymore. I'm going to look for a one-night stand partner. I wish you good luck."

Xu Wenhao watched Han Wenyu leave, then lowered his head and stared at the small paper bag in his hand, then he held it tightly in his hand.

He was a little nervous, so he loosened his tie and drank the wine in one gulp.

Then Xu Wenhao seemed to have made up his mind. He asked the waiter for two glasses of wine, found a hidden place where surveillance cameras could not see him, and poured the powder in the paper bag into one of the glasses of wine. The powder quickly disappeared without a trace in the wine.

Lu Qiao felt unfamiliar with this kind of occasion, but her father wanted her to go out more often, so she agreed to her friend's request and came here.

However, she didn't expect that after arriving, her friend would just leave her and go out to play by herself.

Lu Qiao didn't know anyone and could only stand there awkwardly. When she was considering whether to leave first, she heard someone talking to her.

"Excuse me, beautiful lady, but can I invite you for a drink?"

Lu Qiao turned around and saw the handsome man in front of him holding two glasses of wine and smiling gently at him.

Lu Qiao nodded, took the wine but didn't drink it: This person seems to be the young master of the Xu family?

......

"I'm telling you to slow down. Why are you so excited about a party like this?" Lin Zhuo couldn't hold Wan Linlin back at all. She was wearing an elegant long dress, but her movements were like a wild horse that had broken free from its reins.

Bai Li couldn't stop laughing at the side: "Just let her go and play, I will keep an eye on her."

"That's right, this is the first time I experience such a luxurious party! Ah, is this the life of the second generation of rich people? The air smells like money!" Wan Linlin was intoxicated.

Lin Zhuo was helpless: "Xiao Su, please help Bai Li keep an eye on her. I'm afraid Bai Li can't hold her back by herself."

Luo Su, who was following behind them, nodded: "Don't worry, Brother Lin."

Suddenly, 0617 and Lin Zhuo said, "Host, look who that is!"

Lin Zhuo tilted his head and saw Xu Wenhao holding a glass of wine and chatting with a beautiful woman.

Wow, you’re acting like a gentleman?

0617 then said angrily: "Host, I don't think he has good intentions!"

Lin Zhuo raised his eyebrows: "What do you mean?"

"He actually drugged the beautiful woman with wine!"

Hearing this, Lin Zhuo frowned slightly: Then I'll have to take care of it.
