Chapter 32 (2/2)
Even though Yi Hua had the cheek to follow Shen Yu around several times, now that he was in front of Shen Yu and Uncle Zhang, he was unable to convince Shen Yu to invest.
It took him a lot of effort to force himself to move away from the car window.
Shen Yu kept staring at Yi Hua's face, which turned pale in an instant. Suddenly, he an idea crossed his mind. He hurriedly moved back to the window.
“Mr. Yi.” Shen Yu raised his voice and called out with a smile, “Is Little Heng doing well? It seems that the end of this month is his birthday.”
Yi Hua heard Shen Yu's words and quickly moved back to the car.
Although Yi Hua did not understand why Shen Yu suddenly mentioned his son, he respectfully answered, “Thank you Mr. Shen for your concern. Little Heng is doing very well. He is already in his first year of middle school.”
After a pause, Yi Hua said with some embarra.s.sment, “Maybe Mr. Shen has forgotten, little Heng's birthday is not in winter, but in the summer. My daughter's birthday is at the end of this month.”
Shen Yu let out a sound and seemed to think of something: “Her name is Jiaying, right?”
Yi Hua: ”Yes.”
“I remember.” Shen Yu nodded solemnly.
“…” Yi Hua wanted to ask Shen Yu what he remembered. Did he remember the birthdays of his two children? But this seems to have nothing to do with the Qing Liyuan Project…
Yi Hua couldn't hide anything. All his doubts were written on his face. He moved his lips, but didn't dare to ask, and his face turned away, disappointed.
As a result, Yi Hua heard Shen Yu's voice: “Leave me a contact number, and when I come back in a week, we'll have another meal together. You can bring your family along.”
Yi Hua: “???”
Yi Hua: “!!!”
At this moment, he could hardly believe his own ears.
In a daze, Yi Hua, who was motionless, was almost moved to tears.
For the first time in his life, he felt that a man's voice was so melodious that it was like a Bodhisattva who saved the suffering. With just one word, he pulled him out of h.e.l.l.
After Yi Hua exchanged contact information with Shen Yu in a state of astonishment, he heard Shen Yu ask, “Is your son named Yi Hong?”
“Yes.” Yi Hua was confused but dared not ask more questions. He whispered, “Is there any problem?”
“No problem.” Shen Yu said.
Shen Yu and others had to rush to the airport, so they soon said their goodbyes to Yi Hua.
On the way, Shen Yu closed his eyes and rested in his wheelchair.
The stack of papers on his leg was heavy and weighty, like a stone in Shen Yu's heart.
Originally, he only speculated. Later, he checked several messages with Yi Hua, and then he was very sure of Yi Hua's ident.i.ty. He was the father of Yi Hong, the male lead in the original novel.
It is no wonder that Yi Hus's cowardice gave him a sense of familiarity. When he was still in his original world, he never told his own friends about his own shyness and weaknesses. He and Yi Hua were cut from the same cloth!
It was amazing that someone like Yi Hua became the general manager of his own company.
Just like a certain dessert shop owner who manages the whole Shen family and company, it's amazing…
Thankfully this was a world in a novel. If it was real life, whether it was the Yi family or the Shen family, both would have gone bankrupt hundreds of times.
After returning to the topic and confirming Yi Hua's ident.i.ty, Shen Yu was confused.
If he followed the original plot, he should not have hesitated to refuse Yi Hua's request. However, in this way, Yi Hua would pay a heavy price for the complete closure of the Qingli Yuan Project. As the male lead of this novel, Yi Hua's son, Yi Hong, would have developed a strong grudge against Shen Yu.
If he did not follow the original plot, and instead he injected money to save the Qingli Yuan project, maybe the project would have succeeded. Therefore, Shen Yu could directly avoid the possibility of being Yi Hong's retaliation. Even if the project failed, and Yi Hua still went bankrupt, then when Yi Hong grew up to find someone to settle accounts, it would not be Shen Yu's head.
The only thing that's not so good is…
If Shen Yu did this, who knows which direction the plot line of this novel will skew to…
However, from another point of view, Shen Yu's adoption of minor villains is already the biggest bug on the original plot line. No matter how influential he is in helping Yi Hua and his son, it can't be worse than influencing the villain.
After a period of deliberation, Shen Yu decided to call Kang Lin.
—————
Jincheng is a neighboring city, but it hasn't snowed for four or five years, and it's much warmer than the city they live in.
After getting off the plane, Shen Yu told Tang Li to change his heavy down jacket into a light overcoat.
In terms of everyday life, Tang Li listened to Shen Yu's words very well. He stood still with his arms raised and allowed Shen Yu to put his overcoat on him while he gazed at Shen Yu with his round phoenix eyes.
After Shen Yu arranged Tang Li's clothes, he looked up and smiled at Tang Li's black eyes. He rubbed the little villain's hair and said, “Do you plan to watch me until your eyes fall out?”
Tang Li laughed, and his beautiful little face seemed to glow, “You're so beautiful.”
[1] The text did not specify the type of currency used, just that, ”the capital investment did not exceed 2 million”. I'm going to call it as U.S. dollars because 2 million Chinese Yuan is about 300 thousand U.S. dollars, which seems be an obscenely low amount for any project that a company like Shen Yu would have been dealing with.
