Chapter 17 The dazed child
and woman smiled happily.
"Wenjun." She, Cheng Wenjun's mother Jiang Jing, led the long-haired woman forward, "This is your god-sister Yu Xinqiu, haven't you seen her for a long time?"
Yu Xinqiu nodded.
Her expression was not as warm as Jiang Jing's. After nodding, she took a step back and stood behind Jiang Jing.
"My younger siblings have been helping Aunt Liu in the kitchen?" Cheng Shunyang interrupted the conversation.
"The food is almost ready." Jiang Jing didn't even glance at him. She looked at Cheng Wenjun and said, "Everyone is here, where is Shu Xiu?"
"Sister Jing, I'm here." A woman in a business suit with shoulder-length hair came down from the stairs. "I just had a chat with my second brother upstairs."
Shen Boyan saw a middle-aged man who looked similar to Cheng Wenjun coming down from behind the short-haired woman Cheng Shuxiu. . He probably knew him. This was Cheng Wenjun's father, Cheng Shunhao.
Cheng Shunhao followed Cheng Shuxiu downstairs, but did not go to Jiang Jing. Instead, he stood beside Cheng Shuxiu without saying a word.
The corners of Jiang Jing's lips curled up, and she narrowed her eyes: "We're all here now. Let's go eat, don't be hungry."
"Hey, there's still one more to go." Cheng Shunyang suddenly stopped Jiang Jing. Jiang Jing frowned.
"Brother." She asked, "Who else is missing? Aren't all the family members here?"
Shen Boyan had a bad premonition as he listened. Before he could think deeply, the door was pushed open quickly and slowly.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry uncles and aunts." A familiar voice came from the door.
The man walked into the room quickly and smiled broadly at everyone: "I'm a little late, I'm sorry."
The moment she saw the man, Jiang Jing's face was distorted for a moment.
Cheng Wenjun was also stunned for a moment. The person who came looked at him and said, "Brother, why don't you welcome me?"
"How can you not welcome me?" Cheng Shunyang greeted him warmly, patting the visitor on the shoulder like a loving elder, "Wen An. " Come on, come on, sit down!"
"Why are you sitting down?"
Jiang Jing said suddenly, her voice was so sharp that she was a bit embarrassed: "Who allowed you to bring him here?"
"Brother and sister," Cheng Shunyang turned around with a hint of confusion. Helpless and somewhat condemning, "Wen An is also the second brother's bloodline after all. How could he be excluded from such a reunion moment?"
"Bloodline, what bloodline?" Jiang Jing gritted her teeth and said in a mean tone, "How can an illegitimate child be considered serious? Cheng family?!"
"Brother and sister, you are wrong to say that." Cheng Shunyang sighed, "At least he is also the second brother's child. It would be too harsh for us to exclude him from the company and not let him go home. What's wrong with the child?"
"Join the company?" Jiang Jing raised her voice again, "Cheng Shunyang, what do you mean, join the company?"
She turned to look at Cheng Wenjun again, with a look in her eyes. Bloodshot: "Son, do you know about this? Do you know that this bastard is going to join the company?"
When Cheng Wen'an heard the word 'bastard', he shrugged indifferently. Cheng Shunyang patted his shoulder as if to comfort him.
One of the parties involved, Cheng Wenjun and Cheng Wen'an's father, Cheng Shunhao, stood silent on the edge of the crowd.
"Mom." Cheng Wenjun then spoke, "Don't worry."
He looked at Cheng Shunyang: "Uncle, do you want Wen An to join the company?"
"The matters in the company are complicated, and Wen An doesn't know much about them these years. It can't be such a joke."
"That's right," Cheng Shunyang's smile dropped, "You can learn if you don't know. Didn't you start from scratch when you first joined the company
? You are worried about this. My uncle has already thought about it. I have agreed with Vice President Qu in the company that when the time comes, Wen An will go and learn from Vice President Qu. You also know Vice President Qu’s abilities. There won't be any trouble."
Cheng Wenjun frowned: "Vice President Qu is in charge of the project with Nanwan Group recently, so I'm afraid he won't be able to spare time."
Jiang Jing's face became increasingly ugly as she listened.
"Why don't you make time?" She stopped Cheng Wenjun from talking, "With me here for a day, even Cheng Shunhao's bastard is not allowed to enter the company!"
"Brother and sister, what you said is wrong." Cheng Shunyang's The smile fell completely, "Since you have spoken so harshly, let me also speak harshly - the company belongs to our Cheng family, so who has it for you, a foreigner, to point fingers?"
Jiang Jing's beautiful face His face twisted for a moment.
"What do you mean, ah?!" She stared at Cheng Shunyang, "If our Jiang family hadn't given your family so much cooperation, would your Cheng family be where it is today?! If you didn't say that I had a foreign surname back then, how could you still do it now? " Have you changed?"
"Mom!" Cheng Wenjun grabbed her, then turned to look at Cheng Shunyang, "Uncle, I don't agree with your proposal."
"Wenjun, do you still think this is just a suggestion?" He looked at Cheng Wenjun indifferently and said, "It's both reasonable and reasonable to let Wen An join the company. Juniors who are not directly related to the family can be sent to the company to be taken care of. Not only were my younger siblings' nephews sent in some time ago, but they also joined the company. Are you the CEO's secretary?"
"Not to mention Wen An is the second brother's child!"
Cheng Wenjun's expression changed several times.
Shen Boyan found that he had difficulty maintaining that gentle and calm mask in the end.
"Vice President Qu has been busy lately," he said. "Let's talk about these things later."
"Wen An will come after the New Year." Cheng Shunyang smiled again. ...
The farce ended with Cheng Wenjun's compromise.
Jiang Jing's expression has always been ugly, and she has not spoken since she sat down.
Everyone at the table, except her, was chatting animatedly. She was the only one who looked gloomy, like a dark cloud hovering over the table.
Cheng Wenjun would occasionally say a word or two, as if he wanted to participate in such an atmosphere. But for some unknown reason, Shen Boyan always felt that he had never succeeded.
Oh, besides Jiang Jing, there is also himself.
Shen Boyan hasn't said a word since he walked in. Those people regarded him as mute intentionally or unintentionally, and no topic ever fell on him.
The meal was finished in such a deliberate manner.
Shen Boyan only focused on cooking, so he didn't feel too tired. But Cheng Wenjun was different. After the meal, his mask-like smile seemed to be unable to hang on his face. It was almost broken.
Both the Cheng family's grandfather and grandmother passed away a few years ago, and there are no senior elders at this table. After they finished eating, Cheng Shunyang and others were not ready to leave. Instead, they gathered in the living room and continued chatting.
Jiang Jing did not stay to chat, but walked up to Cheng Wenjun with a sullen face: "Let's go."
Cheng Wenjun was stunned for a moment, then stood up: "Okay, mom."
Shen Boyan watched Cheng Wenjun leave and didn't want to stay in the living room. , so he followed.
But Jiang Jing and Cheng Wenjun obviously forgot about Shen Boyan's existence just like the others. As soon as Shen Boyan went upstairs, he saw the door slamming shut in front of him. ……All right.
Although Shen Boyan had doubts about Cheng Wenjun's current identity and wanted to find out more, he really couldn't do anything to open the door and go in. He could only stand helplessly in the corridor and wait for the conversation to end.
As he stood, footsteps suddenly came from the stairwell.
When he turned around, he saw Yu Xinqiu also going upstairs.
She did not open the door where Cheng Wenjun and Jiang Jing were talking, but stood in the corridor with Shen Boyan.
Shen Boyan didn't recognize her, and she didn't take the initiative to speak. The two of them were silent in silence, and the atmosphere was somewhat frozen.
"...What do you want!" Jiang Jing's roar suddenly came from the room, "What's going on with you now? Why can't you figure this out?!"
Yu Xinqiu seemed to be startled, and her shoulders shook. . She glanced at Shen Boyan subconsciously, and when their eyes met, she lowered her eyes.
No other sounds came from the room, and the corridor became quiet again.
Shen Boyan got a little tired of waiting, so he took out his phone and scrolled through it boredly.
After a while, someone else came up the stairs. The man's steps were a little hurried. When Shen Boyan heard the sound, he saw Cheng Wen'an at the center of the storm hurriedly appearing in his field of vision.
Cheng Wen'an smiled when he saw Shen Boyan.
That smile couldn't be said to be very friendly: "Hey, isn't this Professor Shen?"
Shen Boyan felt that these words sounded weird, so he just said "hmm".
Cheng Wen'an punched the cotton with his fist, feeling a little angry.
"I really didn't expect you to marry that brother of mine." He narrowed his eyes, "How did you get it?"
"I don't know." Shen Boyan was too lazy to say more to him and just replied, "You can ask yourself."
" Ouch." Cheng Wen'an shrugged, "You don't know, your husband is a smiling tiger. I don't want to find him."
Shen Boyan finally raised his eyes and looked at Cheng Wen'an.
Cheng Wen'an thought that this finally aroused Shen Boyan's interest, so he continued to say with a smile: "Smiling tiger. Do you think your husband looks as noble as his appearance?"
"What does it have to do with me." Shen Boyan's heartbeat He sped up slightly and deliberately averted his gaze.
"Hey." Cheng Wen'an sneered, "I don't know what medicine he took wrongly recently, as if he really wants to become a holy mother."
He looked at Shen Boyan: "You have to be careful, if your husband really If you become the Holy Mother, you will be the first to die."
