207 The Cooked Duck Has Flown Away
Even if Chen Wei’er was slow, she still noticed He Xun’s abnormality. She pulled her husband’s sleeve and said, “Honey, what’s wrong?”
“I’m fine.” He Xun took a deep breath and suppressed the frustration in his heart. He smiled at his wife. “Do you still need to visit the studio in the afternoon?”
“Yes.” Chen Wei’er nodded her head. The studio had been a little busy recently, and her private messages involved some powerful big shots.
The employees didn’t dare to make a decision easily. They had to ask Chen Wei’er every time.
Compared to online communication, Chen Wei’er felt that dealing with it face-to-face was the most convenient. After all, she wasn’t afraid of any rich or powerful people!
She had He Xun, her biggest trump card.
“Alright, I’ll send you there. Go and change your clothes,” He Xun said as his eyes refocused on the phone.
Luo Xinrui seemed to be immensely free recently, wasn’t she? If so, he would give her something to do.
******
‘Pa!’
A crisp slap reverberated in the study room.
Luo Shijie was so angry that his whole body trembled. He pointed at Luo Xinrui, who was standing in front of him, and scolded, “You can’t even handle such a simple project? You piece of trash! What else can you do if the marriage is a failure and the project doesn’t go well?”
He continued, “You can’t even f*cking keep up! A girl is born to bring benefits to the family through marriage. This is your greatest value! But what are you doing? You are already in your 20s, and the peak of your beauty has already declined with age. If you wait a few more years, your value will depreciate, and I have f*cking raised you in vain! I shouldn’t have brought you back!”
The more Luo Shijie scolded, the more unpleasant it was.
Luo Xinrui’s face was swollen, and the more she listened, the colder her heart became. This was her biological father, but Luo Shijie had never given her any familial affection.
What did he mean by saying that it was true love for her mother? It was all fake!
He had just tricked a silly woman into giving birth to a defective product. Her mother even lost her life.
In the Luo family, women were born to use their bodies in exchange for resources to benefit the family.
Luo Xinrui had no doubt that if someone were to invest a million yuan in the Luo family’s company, Luo Shijie would personally send her to the other party’s bed.
No matter who the other party was, her father would even tell him that she was worth a lot of money for selling her first night!
Luo Xinrui’s body turned cold as she tried to explain to Luo Shijie, “Dad, this time, achieving success really isn’t a problem with my ability. Someone deliberately sabotaged the project.”
She did not expect that an unremarkable piece of land in the suburbs would be seized by someone else after discussing the price and signing the contract!
The quality of the soil in that piece of land was up to standard. In addition, it was located in a remote location, so the price was low.
The Luo family had originally planned to use it to grow organic agricultural products. Moreover, there was an agricultural university nearby. If they hired teachers from the university as staff, their products would have an additional layer of credibility.
Luo Shijie handed this project to Luo Xinrui because he had calculated that there would be no problems and that it would be profitable.
That piece of land was now deserted and overgrown with grass.
The Luo family did not even need to participate in the bidding meeting. They could just negotiate the lowest price.
In the end, someone suddenly barged in and even made the other party break the contract.
Although they had a cause of action on the ground of breach of contract, the Luo family had already signed and bought expensive patented technology and machinery.
The damages arising from the breach of contract were not enough to pay for their losses.
It turned all the money and energy that the Luo family had invested in the early stages into waste!
The Luo family’s capital was not abundant, to begin with, and now that a cooked duck could fly, so much money had gone to waste.
Luo Shijie was outraged that he wanted to beat this evil daughter to death!
What was the use of having her? She only knew how to cause trouble for him.
Last time, she had angered He Xun’s wife and caused his replacement.
What a waste!
She didn’t understand the project and couldn’t seduce a man.
The more he thought about it, the angrier he got. His daughter was a pure piece of trash!
“You still have the nerve to say that? We’ve been keeping a low profile in getting this land. It must be because you have been showing off, so you’ve been targeted! In the end, it’s just that you’re not capable enough, you piece of trash! I’ll just beat you to death!”
Luo Shijie was so angry that he had been drinking to suppress his emotions. The company was short of funds.
He had originally planned to get the first batch of products next year after the project started.
By then, he would sell them to the upper class of the city at a high price. He would definitely make money.
But now, everything was gone!
He had lost all his money, and the funds for other projects were also extremely tight.
“I…” Luo Xinrui wanted to explain herself. She was really careful. However, no matter what she said now, Luo Shijie would not listen to her. He would not let her off just because she explained herself. Since she had failed, she had to pay the price. This was the way the Luo family lived.
