Chapter 958
The Ambition of Two Women
The main person involved has left.
Naturally, the fight couldn't happen.
Ma Xiulan and her daughter Yin Mingzhu glanced at Du Yuanyuan and her daughter Xu Siqi with disgust.
Turn around and leave!
It's better than arguing with this shameless mother and daughter.
They have more important things to do.
"Humph!"
"Mom is right, isn't she?"
Du Yuanyuan coldly stared at the backs of Ma Xiulan and Yin Mingzhu, the mother and daughter.
"Mom, I...were our actions today...aren't they a bit too risky? And...too excessive?"
Compared to her mother.
Xu Siqi didn't look particularly smug.
She's easily embarrassed, after all.
She was accused and insulted as a mistress in front of everyone.
Moreover, this person was one of my former best friends.
This feeling... is not pleasant.
What the other party said was absolutely true; she was indeed a mistress, constantly clinging to Mr. Lu even though she knew he had a wife and children…
Finally, I got him.
but,
Mr. Lu, Mr. Lu Yang, do they also think I am a shameless woman?
That's what she's most worried about.
She didn't care about other people's opinions or worldly views; what she cared about was this person, whether he had ever truly liked her.
She used to think that Lu Yang loved her too.
But ever since she went against Lu Yang's decision and moved back to the mainland from Singapore to settle down, even though she ultimately chose Shanghai, more than 1000 kilometers away from Shenzhen, the man seemed angry and hadn't visited her or their daughter for almost a year.
She made this decision suddenly today.
She takes a risk by bringing a fake husband to the airport to stage a scene of picking him up.
Besides her mother's persuasion.
She herself wondered what would happen if she appeared in front of him. Would he be even angrier? Or would he finally agree to see her?
In retrospect, the result was neither good nor bad.
At least, the other party knew to take their daughter with them before leaving.
Seeing that her daughter was in a low mood.
Du Yuanyuan, however, said with a confident and proud expression: "Daughter, you are just timid. Sometimes, if you don't provoke a man, he will never pay attention to you. Instead of waiting for him to remember you, you should take the initiative, appear in front of him, and see what he does next."
My daughter and I will deal with each move as it comes!
Don't worry, look at this guy, at least he knew to take Feifei with him before leaving.
He'll definitely call you later and tell you to come see him. Don't worry about Mom, just go see him. It would be best if you could keep him with you tonight. Then, Mom will figure something out..."
He hadn't finished speaking.
Xu Siqi stomped her foot to interrupt her, "Mom, don't say things like that. He and Mingyue have a very good relationship. If he finds out that you've thought about breaking him up with Mingyue, even if you haven't done anything, he'll not only resent you, but he'll also hold me responsible. Mom, I'm begging you, please don't do anything reckless."
As he spoke, his face was filled with anxiety.
This mother is wonderful in every way. Over the years, she has helped me manage the company and take care of my daughter, Feifei.
It means being ambitious.
When the conflict with Mingzhu Media occurred before, it could be argued that it was only directed at the company and not at the individuals.
Besides, although Sister Mingzhu was that guy's ex-lover and childhood sweetheart fiancée, the two of them had already fallen out long ago. If his company targeted Sister Mingzhu's company, he would not only not blame him, but might even secretly help him.
Later events proved that my guess was correct.
The Century Group's influence is evident throughout the lawsuit between Mingzhu Media and Sifei Media, consistently assisting Sifei Media. Otherwise, they would have already lost most of the domestic market in the first two rounds of litigation.
The reason why it can still stand firm in Shanghai, a first-tier city in China, is that
The man's presence behind the scenes has made an indelible contribution.
But now,
Mom has set her sights on Mingyue.
She dared not imagine what would happen if that man found out...
Based on her understanding of that man.
Thinking about this...
Xu Siqi trembled all over.
"mom!"
"We shouldn't be too greedy."
She raised her head, trying hard to hold back her tears. Her eyes were red, and she said firmly, "I've said before that I'm willing to do anything to stay by his side, even if it means being a mistress in other people's eyes..."
"Now I have what I wanted."
Her tears finally flowed.
She choked back tears and said, "I'm already so grateful for everything I have today, Mom. Please, I'm begging you, don't throw away all of this that I've worked so hard to achieve."
It's been ten years.
She spent five years quietly following him, acting as his devoted follower, and another two years before finally winning his heart and becoming pregnant with his child. Now, they finally have a child together and a stable life. Although they only see each other a few times a year, at least she has gotten what she wanted.
She cannot.
It is also not allowed for anyone to damage it.
Du Yuanyuan's expression changed slightly, and then she said with a hint of disappointment, "What can I say about you? Why can't you have any ambition? You are now the female president of a multinational company. In terms of the wealth you control, how many women in China and abroad can compare to you?"
"Those two Yin sisters are just country bumpkins. You're my daughter, Du Yuanyuan's daughter. Your father is the mayor, your maternal grandfather was a veteran revolutionary who shed blood for the founding of this country, and your maternal uncle... he's a leader in a military district... You deserve better, you silly girl, do you... do you even understand?"
talking.
Du Yuanyuan's face was full of disappointment and frustration.
"mom."
Xu Siqi still didn't listen to what she was saying, and only said in a cold and indifferent tone: "Can you stop always mentioning your family? You looked down on Dad back then, didn't you? He had already worked very hard, becoming the deputy county head before he was even 40, but you still looked down on him back then, just because my dad came from a poor background, because you were the apple of the eye of a big family in the provincial capital. But now? Haven't you ever regretted abandoning your husband and daughter back then?"
There were some things she didn't want to say.
I was afraid of hurting my mother's pride if I told her.
However, her mother seemed to have gotten a little carried away, repeatedly pushing her own limits. She probably forgot that it was her family's influence that forced her to marry someone she didn't like. If she hadn't insisted, she probably would have already been forced by her mother to marry some rich second-generation playboy from a government agency, and might already be a resentful woman living in seclusion in some government compound.
"What...what did you say?" Du Yuanyuan thought she had misheard.
Three years ago, after hearing the news that her daughter was pregnant and had given birth in Singapore, she resigned from her position as deputy director of the provincial radio station without hesitation and went to Singapore to take care of her daughter.
This finally led to a historic reconciliation between the mother and daughter. This was the first time in nearly three years that her daughter had spoken to her so sternly.
So her face turned pale and then white, then pale and then pale again, and according to her temper, she was about to scold this unfilial daughter.
Xu Siqi's icy voice continued, "Mom, I don't think I need to say it a second time, do I? Although you've been managing Sifei Media, its true owners aren't you, they're me and your granddaughter Feifei. You don't want me to take it back, do you?"
This is her mother's Achilles' heel.
Xu Siqi understood from a young age that her mother was obsessed with officialdom and had a power desire far stronger than that of ordinary women. If it weren't for this, she wouldn't have been able to make the painful decision to leave her lover of five years, abandon her father, and take away Xu Siqi when she was not even two years old.
Upon hearing her daughter's threat to remove her from control of the company's operations, she was immediately distressed.
Du Yuanyuan finally panicked.
Many reprimands were left unsaid, and people immediately shut their mouths.
I tried hard to squeeze out two tears.
With a pitiful look on her face, she said dejectedly, "So, you still mind that Mom tricked you into coming back for a blind date. But Mom did it for your own good!"
As she spoke, tears actually welled up in her eyes.
Du Yuanyuan sighed again, tilted her head back, and pretended to try hard not to let her tears fall, saying, "Fine, if you feel that the life you have now is what you want, then Mom won't force you. I just hope that you won't regret it later."
And so it is.
Xu Siqi was finally moved.
This is her mother, a mother to whom blood is thicker than water. As her own child, she has now driven her mother to tears.
Forget it.
She sighed as well.
"As long as you, Mom, don't do anything that harms him or our relationship, I won't stop you no matter what you do. But I really can't live without him. I can't leave him. If he doesn't want me anymore, I don't know what the point of my life will be. Mom, can you understand?"
By this time, Xu Siqi was already crying her eyes out.
Seeing how deeply she loved her daughter.
Du Yuanyuan felt a slight tingling sensation on her scalp, and at the same time, she had a deep sense of unease.
This guy!
It seems I really can't do anything too dangerous anymore.
Otherwise, if that boy surnamed Lu and his daughter are separated, I'm afraid... not only will the daughter not recognize her as her mother, but she might even lose her life.
Oh, what a tragedy!
She herself was a hopeless romantic when she was young, and she never expected that her daughter would also be a hopeless romantic.
I just hope that as she gets older, her daughter will gradually come to understand, like her, that in this world, only power and money are truly reliable.
Is love more important than bread?
A woman at a certain age has her own set of thoughts, and Du Yuanyuan can only think this way about her love-obsessed daughter.
There is no other way.
She dared not gamble. If she lost, she would lose not only her daughter, but also the wealth and resources she currently controlled, and the power she wielded over half of the domestic entertainment industry.
"Mom will listen to you."
"Mom promises not to do anything reckless."
"By the way, our people planted in Mingzhu Media have found out that your friend is very ambitious lately and wants to take the company public. Right now, there isn't a single listed private media company in our country. If this woman succeeds, then our Sifei Media will be completely left behind by Mingzhu Media."
That won't do. Mom thinks we can give it a try!
"So, when you see that kid surnamed Lu later, ask him for help. If he helps you, this will definitely work out. Then, our Sifei Media will be the first A-share listed media and film company."
Du Yuanyuan skillfully began to change the subject.
If you talk about something else, your daughter, who is in a fit of anger, might not want to hear it, but as soon as you mention her friend, the woman named Yin Mingzhu who runs Mingzhu Media Company.
My daughter will definitely get hooked.
These two girls are currently competing with each other, neither willing to admit defeat, much less bow down to the other.
really,
Xu Siqi said firmly, "I understand. I'll mention it to him later. As long as he helps me, we're guaranteed to win."
"Ring ring..."
Said that Cao Cao Cao Cao arrived.
Just then, Xu Siqi's phone rang.
"Is it him? Tell me quickly, is he my son-in-law?"
Seeing that her daughter had already taken her phone out of her bag, Du Yuanyuan said anxiously before she could press the answer button.
"Ah."
Xu Siqi nodded slightly.
Then he turned his back, put the phone to his ear, and said, "Tell me, I'm listening."
“Zhongting International, I have a large apartment here. It’s a property I bought in Shanghai that your sister-in-law Mingyue doesn’t know about. Come alone later. I’ll send you the address, floor, and apartment number. Remember, only you come.”
Lu Yang's voice was as cold as a snowball in winter.
The person still seems angry.
Xu Siqi said softly, "Okay, I'm coming right now."
She knew this man needed to be coaxed.
She had anticipated this outcome long before she decided to do it.
After hanging up the phone.
She forced a smile and turned to say, "Mom, he wants to see me. You go back first, I'll go see him alone."
On the way to see Lu Yang, Xu Siqi was...
Ma Xiulan and her daughter Yin Mingzhu had just boarded the bus.
They started arguing in the car at that moment.
"Mom, didn't you say you were confident? How did things turn out like this?" Yin Mingzhu questioned.
"How would Mom know that that brat actually owns property in Shanghai? And judging from Mingyue's tone, it might not just be a simple apartment building, but probably a luxury villa."
Ma Xiulan is also very frustrated right now.
She has her own luxurious villa to live in, why would she go back with her and live under someone else's roof? How can you blame her for that?
"But Mom, don't forget what you promised me..."
"Don't worry, Mom hasn't forgotten. Mom promises that this time you'll definitely reconcile with your sister. As long as you don't try to take advantage of your brother-in-law again, your sister is the kindest person. As long as Mom persuades her well and you apologize to him, she'll forgive you. Then, with your sister whispering in your brother-in-law's ear, if your little media company wants to go public on the A-share market, won't it be a piece of cake for her?"
"I hope so!" Yin Mingzhu said.
If it weren't for the company's grand development plan, and the goal of becoming the first listed film and entertainment company in China, she would never have bowed down to her sister or that despicable man. (End of Chapter)
