#42 - Chapter 42: Double Happiness? Sowing Dissension!
In the study, on the small balcony.
Chen Hao smoked a cigarette, watching the glow of the setting sun.
During this time, his parents were busy at the shop, while he buried himself in work every day.
The AI system was extremely complex and could not be completed overnight.
These past two days.
He stopped writing code and instead focused on writing technical documentation to prepare for the next stage of development.
Also, school is about to start!
"I'm going to see my senior soon."
A gentle smile graced his face.
Bending over.
Hunching his back.
Burying his head.
More than a month ago, they had an unexpected, early first meeting, but it was only a fleeting glimpse.
From now on, they would be together day and night.
He had to register tomorrow.
He took out his phone and dialed a number: "Xiao Yan, what are you doing?"
"Playing CS... Damn! I'm dead again!"
On the other end of the phone, Deng Xiaoyan complained, "Why do you always call me when I'm playing games?"
"When are you not playing games?" Chen Hao retorted.
"..."
Deng Xiaoyan thought about it.
It was true!
He had completely let loose during the summer vacation and spent almost all of it in internet cafes.
"Stop playing games."
Chen Hao said with a smile, "President Deng, you're going to study finance and make big money."
"This is called balancing work and rest, what do you know?"
Deng Xiaoyan scoffed, "You're not planning to ride your Suzuki King to Shanghai, are you? I'm not going with you!"
Motorcycles are not suitable for long distances.
Riding to Shanghai would be a pain in the ass.
More importantly.
With a bunch of large and small bags, the Suzuki King wouldn't be able to carry them.
"Forget it, I'll have my dad take me," Deng Xiaoyan didn't want to ride a motorcycle.
"How old are you, still not weaned?"
"It's not..."
"Like this!"
Chen Hao thought for a moment, "Don't let Uncle Deng take you, just say you're taking the bus with me—meet at the bus station tomorrow morning."
After hanging up.
He called Xia Qingyan again.
Mainly to ask how many SP4 units were in stock.
The answer was nearly 200,000 units!
That should be enough.
The plan.
Was about to begin!
"That's right!"
Xia Qingyan hurriedly said, "Just now, President Qiu couldn't get through to your phone. He asked me to tell you that the person he mentioned wanting to poach last time is almost in place."
"Okay, I'll go over tomorrow," Chen Hao smiled.
Double happiness!
This was the rhythm of starting full production!
... ...
"What's that smell?"
Suddenly!
A shout came from outside the study.
Immediately afterward, Li Lan, who had just returned home, pounded on the study door, "Chen Hao! Are you smoking? Open the door!"
"Open the door, if you have the guts to smoke, why don't you have the guts to open the door!"
It's over!
Chen Hao desperately fanned the smoke towards the small balcony.
But...
How could he fan it all away?
An idea struck him.
He simply went over and opened the door.
Li Lan held a feather duster, ready to strike as soon as the door opened.
"Serves you right!"
Chen Fuhai gloated, with a face of watching a joke, "Wife! This kid really deserves a beating, not learning good things at such a young age..."
"Mom, I'm going to school tomorrow."
Chen Hao was very sad, listless, "I feel especially bad when I think about leaving home."
Instantly!
The feather duster raised above her head was weakly lowered.
Li Lan suddenly felt empty inside.
"Son..."
Her eyes welled up with tears, "It's okay! Mom and Dad will take you to school tomorrow, and every weekend from now on... Mom will go to school to see you, okay? Anyway, Jinling to Shanghai is only a few hundred miles, wah wah..."
She wanted to comfort her 'sad' son, but ended up comforting herself to tears.
"I'm mainly worried about Dad, he smokes so much every day, it's not good for his health," Chen Hao looked very concerned.
Not good!
Chen Fuhai realized something was wrong.
"Chen Fuhai!"
Li Lan suddenly turned her head, pointing the feather duster at her husband, "You're so old, and you still don't understand!"
"What our son said is right, our family of three, not one can be missing!"
"You're so good, smoking, smoking, smoking all day long, if I see you smoking again, I'll beat you to death!"
"Tomorrow..."
"No! Start quitting smoking now, hand over the cigarettes—you dare to run?!"
Chen Fuhai lifted his legs and ran, his mind completely blank.
It was clearly his son who was smoking!
You were clearly prepared to beat your son!
Why are you targeting me?
... ...
At the bus station.
Deng Xiaoyan didn't let his parents come to see him off.
He didn't want to be mocked by Chen Hao for not being weaned.
So, using the words Chen Hao taught him, he came to the bus station alone.
Just standing at the entrance waiting, a taxi stopped in front of him.
"Sun Qian?" Deng Xiaoyan was stunned.
That's right!
The person getting out of the car was Sun Qian!
In order to pursue Chen Hao, she applied to universities in Shanghai, so naturally, she had to come here to take the bus.
Hearing the voice, Sun Qian was surprised.
She was very familiar with Deng Xiaoyan, after all, she was Chen Hao's girlfriend, and Deng Xiaoyan was Chen Hao's brother.
Only...
Now, the relationship had changed.
She only had resentment towards Chen Hao!
She certainly didn't have a good attitude towards Chen Hao's brother, but on second thought...
"Xiao Yan, long time no see."
She smiled brightly, "What are you doing here? Don't tell me you're waiting for Chen Hao?"
"Yes."
Deng Xiaoyan was economical with his words.
He didn't have a shred of goodwill towards Sun Qian.
Even when Chen Hao and Sun Qian were together, he had reminded Chen Hao more than once, saying that Sun Qian only cared about money.
"As a friend, I think... there are some things I should remind you of," Sun Qian looked solemn.
"What things?"
"Chen Hao's family owes a lot and a lot of money."
"Tch!"
Deng Xiaoyan didn't bother to pay attention to her.
He and Chen Hao were as close as brothers, and this friendship had nothing to do with money.
Even if Chen Hao's family went bankrupt, they would still be brothers.
In addition.
The two families had a close relationship.
He had heard from his parents that Uncle Chen had opened a new store, and business was booming.
"I'm not lying to you!"
Sun Qian thought he didn't believe her and quickly explained, "Last time I went to the bank, Chen Hao and his dad went to get a loan, they were so poor they didn't have anything to mortgage."
"Guess how much money they borrowed? 20 million! That is to say, Chen Hao's family owes tens of millions in debt!"
"Are you not afraid of being sucked dry by him if you make friends with this kind of person?"
That's right!
She hated Chen Hao to the bone.
She was very happy to take the opportunity to sow discord and alienate Deng Xiaoyan from Chen Hao.
What's more...
She wasn't lying about the loan.
"What?!"
Deng Xiaoyan was shocked, "He... borrowed 20 million?!"
"If I lie to you, may I die a horrible death!" Sun Qian swore directly, fearing that he wouldn't believe her.
"No way!"
While taking out his phone, Deng Xiaoyan muttered, "I have to ask my parents, how much savings are left at home, to see if we can help Haozi."
What?!
Sun Qian almost fainted.
She came to sow discord.
Not to let Deng Xiaoyan help Chen Hao, okay?
Just then.
A black car drove over.
Beep beep!
It honked loudly after approaching.
Sun Qian had just gotten out of the car and was standing in the way, when she saw the car's logo, she was so scared that she quickly dodged.
"Xiao Yan, calling Uncle Deng again? Still not weaned," a familiar voice came.
"Haozi?!"
Deng Xiaoyan hadn't dialed the phone yet.
When he saw the car...
He was numb!
"Benz?! Haozi, where did you get the car? Oh my god!" Deng Xiaoyan's eyeballs almost popped out.
"Borrowed."
Chen Hao didn't seem to see Sun Qian, "Hurry up, move the things into the car, let's go."
"Oh..."
Deng Xiaoyan quickly moved the luggage.
Sun Qian was dumbfounded.
Didn't they say they didn't even have collateral to get a loan?
It showed that the family's business was over, and it also meant that they owed a lot of money.
In this case, after getting the loan, they should pay off the debt, where did the money come from to buy a luxury car?
As for him saying it was borrowed...
Who would lend him this kind of luxury car?
"Chen Hao..." She wanted to ask for the truth.
Vroom!
The Benz sped away.
The moment it passed by her, the accelerator seemed to have been accidentally opened too much.
A cloud of smoke sprayed all over her head and face.
"Chen Hao!"
Sun Qian covered her mouth and nose, and shouted through gritted teeth, "You wait! I will never rest until you are dead!"
