aining outside now. 。" Joe Shun-chen stood up as he spoke, walking to the window to observe whether the sky was clearing. 。As he was observing, his phone rang again. 。The number displayed is Qin J...“This is my home. Before my parents had an accident, this was all mine.” 。I was born and raised here, running around this courtyard since I was little. 。When I was eight years old, Jingyi was born. Since then, our two figures have been running wild in this yard. 。Qin Jing’s gentle recollections narrated the house's connection to her, explaining to Qiao Shunchen why she bought it and why she refused to sell it. 。"Over there, the garage, and next to it is a warehouse" 。When I was little, Jingyi and I used to play hide-and-seek in that warehouse. 。At this time, Qiao Shunchen, following Qin Jingwen's memories, also came to his childhood. 。But his memories began with hatred for this house. 。

Someone came here angrily looking for Qin Lan, but they didn't dare to go in once or twice.

Three times, four times, when he came again, he saw Qin Jingwen's eight-year-old girl in her memories. 。Seeing the little girl playing happily and carefree, his heart that had been burning with anger instantly calmed down. 。"Now that warehouse has truly become a warehouse, filled with relics left behind by mom and dad." 。Qin Jingwen seemed clearly dejected. She thought of her parents and also of her own loneliness. 。After spending so much time with Qiao Shunchen, I never thought about breaking up. It was only when I calmly mentioned her family affairs that things became clear. 。But now that I think about it, it was right to not say anything before. Otherwise, Qiao Shunchen would think she's even less worthy of him. 。Qin Jingwen quickly sorted out her emotions, because no matter how distressed she was mentally, nobody cared or felt sorry for her anymore. 。When you made me sell this house, I wanted to tell you it was the place that raised me, but you wouldn't listen. 。including my parents' car accident, including how difficult it has been for me all these years 。You only know the surface. I want to talk to you seriously, but you never listen. 。Today, Qin Jingwen suddenly understood many things. At this moment, she knew why Qiao Shunchen didn't listen to her. 。Since he didn't take her seriously, her affairs were none of his concern. Hearing an extra word was a bother to him. 。Qin Jingwen's words made Qiao Shunchen's heart churn, he didn't know if it was pain, or hurt, or hate. 。"I should have listened to you sooner " 。" I had heard about Qin Jingwen's identity long ago, so I wouldn't have let myself fall into this much pain. " 。"You handled your parents' car accident by yourself"Joe Shunchen continued to ask, not sure what kind of answer he wanted. 。He doesn't even know which questions are important and which aren't. 。Just as I thought of something, I blurted it out. 。"Well, Auntie's back to help me deal with it." 。"At the time, the house was repossessed by the bank, and the company went bankrupt. We couldn't afford to compensate the deceased at all." 。Fortunately, my parents had already prepared houses for both me and Jingyi before this happened. So I decided to sell both our houses on my own accord. 。"Even so, it was still a drop in the bucket. Later, when my aunt came back, she sold the small quadrangle courtyard that her grandfather had left her. 。Do you remember, there was a time I told you that I still wanted to buy an even older house 。That older house belongs to my aunt. 。Qin Jingwen also understood why she had said so much. 。It's possible that he and Qiao Shunchen won't have any relationship anymore, and instead, he might feel relaxed and indifferent. 。"I still owe some money to people to this day." 。

You've been asking me what I've been busy with lately, well, I've been looking for this person to give them some money.

"Why didn't you say anything before, and now you're saying it" Joe Shunchen's wary and suspicious eyes finally met Qin Jingwen's. 。Qin Jingwen's aunt suddenly appearing in his mouth made him immediately sober up from his daze. 。It seems Qin Jingwen has once again become a cunning and treacherous person. 。She is so cunning, so full of tricks. Who knows what she's planning by suddenly saying all this today 。"I was angry with you the other day. You didn't tell me about a lot of things, so I guess I just have to handle my own problems myself." 。"Thinking back now, I'm glad I didn't say it. 。If a woman who doesn't match your status were to say these troublesome things, wouldn't you be even more annoyed 。" Qin Jingwen spoke truthfully, but her heart was bleeding. 。I never could have imagined that all this time, being with Qiao Shunchen was unknowingly acting in a play for him. 。As for feelings and love, they don't really exist. It's just her one-sided infatuation and wishful thinking. 。What's even more laughable is that she now suspects that the life Qiao Shunchen risked for her was just an act, and that she was so immersed in it that she thought it was a true love story written with his life. 。Did he find that person Joe Shunchen's heart was almost bursting. 。Looking at Qin Jingwen's dejected expression and hearing her disappointed words, Qiao Shunchen felt a mixture of hatred and reluctance, leaving him mentally conflicted. 。Even if we find it, I can't afford to pay for it. 。I prepared 4 million, but the compensation he proposed is 80 million. 。Now Qin Jingwen doesn't care whether this person is a fraud or not, she has to prepare 80 million anyway. She needs to wait for things to be confirmed and see the person before she hands over the money. 。"Eighty million..." Qiao Shunchen let out a cold snort, obviously mocking Qin Jingwen for not being able to come up with that much money. 。"Don't overthink it, I don't mean to complain, and I don't mean to borrow money from you." 。Qin Jingwen quickly explained, she knew that what she said was wishful thinking, and she also knew that Qiao Shunchen would not be able to lend her money at this time. 。Because it's common knowledge, Qin Jingwen dared to say these things. 。After spending so long with Joe Shunchen, this was the first time she had so openly brought up money. 。It was also the first time she felt so comfortable talking to Qiao Shunchen about these things. 。... because they soon had no relationship at all, as it didn't involve Qiao Shunchen's interests ... 。"If you don't sell this villa, you won't be able to pay..." 。"Let me know when you're thinking of selling your house, I'd love to buy it." 。" Qiao Shunchen threw down such a sentence very suddenly and turned to leave. Qin Jingwen felt inexplicable, but she could only watch his back slowly walk away. 。 Qiao Shunchen suddenly left because he was being tortured to the point of death, because he had an impulse to say everything and quickly resolve everything. 。To avoid this impulse becoming a reality, he had to leave 。Everything Qin Jingwen said, Qiao Shunchen could no longer tell what was true or false, what was fact or conspiracy. 。The harder it was to tell apart, the more Qiao Shunchen suffered. 。Qin Jing's gentleness and Qiao Shunchen's persistence had left them both mentally and physically exhausted, leaving no room in their minds for anything else. 。And that's when Qiao Bin shines. 。His plan had already begun, and this period was the best time for it to accelerate. 。Qiao Bin returned home very late, but he saw that his father's study lamp was still on. 。 Qiao Bin wanted to go to the study to greet his father, but he stopped at the doorway. 。In the study 。George and Liu the Butler were discussing something, and didn't notice that the study door wasn't closed, nor did they notice that Joe had already come back. 。"Chairman, the company has been running very well recently. " Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!。Shunchen and Shunhao also performed very well. You don't have to worry, just let them go all out. 。As for the recent updates on the company, Liu Guanjia has already reported everything. 。Joe Shunchen and Joe Shounhau's performance is also part of what he needs to report. 。Then I feel relieved. 。"

Joe Xiang said reassuringly

" 。Hearing this, Qiao Bin didn't seem to hear anything. Instead, he heard his son expressing a strong desire to go in and take advantage of the hot iron opportunity to say a few words. 。Just as he reached out to push the door open, his father's words stopped him in his tracks. 。"Could Shunhao be able to handle the position of CEO right now" Joe Chiang had his own thoughts on this, and he'd been discussing it these past few days. But he still needed to hear Liu's opinion on the matter. 。"He's performing very diligently and enthusiastically. However, taking on the position of CEO seems a bit immature and lacking ..." 。Take your time, after some training it should be alright. 。" Liu the housekeeper gave his opinion, however, he didn't know that this opinion made Qiao Bin unhappy. 。 Qiao Bin knew very well how much weight Liu Guanjia's every word and deed held with his father, so even his words didn't carry as much weight as Liu Guanjia's. 。"At my age, I can't wait. I don't even know how long it will take." 。"Shunhao is still too young and inexperienced. " 。I also think he can't handle the responsibility of being CEO right now. 。Joe Xiang's view is the same as Liu Guanjia's, since both people are alike, there's no question. 。I can't wait and don't want to wait anymore. 。Even if I could live for a few more years, I'd have to give up my position and relax. 。"That's it, I'll announce my retirement at the year-end board meeting." 。The position of chairman is given to Shunchen, and the CEO will temporarily also be Shunchen. 。Joe Chiang has finally made a decision, deciding to step down from the position of chairman. 。He no longer had the energy to manage company affairs, even though it was just listening to reports and occasionally giving a general direction. He couldn't even manage such simple tasks. 。"Could the chairman and president’s rights being given to Shunchen cause problems with Qiao Bin and Shun Hao" This is what Liu the Butler has been worried about. 。Just don't worry about it so much, no matter what I do, Qiao Bin will have an opinion. 。This position of CEO, Shunchen can determine it himself. He has the sense of propriety and won't cling to it tightly. 。Joe Xiang saw through Qiao Bin and, without considering Qiao Bin's feelings, made a decisive decision. 。He believes in Qiao Shunchen, believing that Qiao Shunchen will not hold all the power. 。Someday, Qiao Bin will understand the intentions of Qiao Shunchen and everyone else, and he will understand the reason why we did this. 。 However, Qiao Bin couldn't imagine how high Qiao Dexiang could reach, and he couldn't accept his father's arrangement. 。It's a bit too much to give both the chairman and CEO positions to Joe Shun-chen. 。We can choose not to consider him, but we can't ignore his son either. That would be too unfair to them both. 。Although he also heard his father say that Qiao Shunchen would not cling to the position of CEO. 。But I can't guarantee that Qiao Shunchen will give the CEO position to Qiao Shunhao. 。When the father is gone, Qiao Shunchen will happily give his position to one of his trusted aides. Then they will have no hope at all, and may even be driven out of Qiao's company by Qiao Shunchen. 。No, Joe wouldn't let that happen. He would fight for his son, he would fight for himself. 。 Qiao Bin didn't make a sound, nor did he interrupt the conversation between his father and Liu Guanyin. He quietly returned to his own bedroom. 。"Where did you go, it's so late when you came back " 。As soon as Joe Bin closed the door, he heard his wife's dissatisfied voice. 。Walking my dog. 。喬斌 impatiently replied, 。At this moment, his mind was completely occupied by his father's words, and he had no mood to think about anything else. 。"Why don't I come over and have dinner with you" 。Qin Jingwen gave herself an excuse to get through it, though she was still guessing why Qiao Shunchen would do this. But in front of Chi Chuan, she c...
