Capítulo 767: Chapter 800: Suspended Indefinitely
“Xu Qigang tracked down the place where Chen Yingjie disappeared, judging from the clues he left behind. The External Communication Center is all stirred up, you better not get involved, do you hear?”
“Dad, did you come just to tell me this?”
“I mainly came to see you.” Meng Xingzhi couldn’t help but slap him on the face, not using much force, but Meng Ping grimaced in pain. Meng Xingzhi was so frightened that he hurried out to find a doctor.
“No need, I’m fine… fine…” He said it was fine, but his forehead was covered in cold sweat.
“Look at what you’ve made of yourself. Is chasing a woman worth it?” Meng Xingzhi gave him a glass of water to drink, waiting until his complexion looked a bit better before he continued, “Looking like neither human nor ghost, when did I not know you were such a romantic?”
“Maybe I’ve done too many bad deeds, and now the retribution has arrived?” Meng Ping tugged at the corner of his mouth, “Right, the newspaper’s meddling was the Shen Family’s doing, wasn’t it?”
“Enough, stop it! The game behind this is not for you to play; you just wait and see the outcome! That ‘One Weekly’ is not bad, you can continue with it but are not allowed to publish any news that creates a bad social influence.”
“I understand!” Being from the family, Meng Ping nodded upon hearing this, “I can assure you I won’t make a move again, but what about Shen Yu? Just let him go ?”
“How could that be possible! Shen Yu has been suspended.” Meng Xingzhi’s lips curled into a sneering smile, deep laugh lines forming around his eyes and eyebrows. Even though he was over fifty, he still stood tall with a straight back. Time had added wrinkles to his face, as well as the charming maturity of a man.
With such a father, of course the two sons wouldn’t be lacking in appearance. It was said that Meng Fan resembled him the most. Another reason Meng Xingzhi rarely returned to the old house to see his father was that the old man was always reminded of his grandson who died young whenever he saw him.
Shen Yu made him endure the pain of losing a son; with or without evidence, he would never let him off.
“No!” Meng Xingzhi shook his head, “Forever!” After saying that, he stood up, folding the handkerchief he had used to wipe his hands and put it into his pocket, “You rest and recuperate in peace, Aunt Su will come to take care of you. Don’t cause any more trouble.”
“She retired early!” Meng Xingzhi left that sentence behind as he went out.
Meng Ping scoffed upon hearing this, suddenly feeling that the pain in his chest wasn’t as bad as before. He yelled in the direction of the restroom, “Little fat man, get out here. Are you not disgusted hiding in there?”
The tightly closed restroom door was pushed open from the inside, and the little fat man came out scratching his head with a silly smile, “Boss, if I hear such secrets, will I be silenced?”
“I think you’ve watched too many Hong Kong and Taiwanese movies, huh? Such a vivid imagination.”
The little fat man sheepishly scratched his head and sat down where Meng Xingzhi had been, “This chair was used by the President, just thinking about it excites me.”
Meng Ping glared at him in displeasure, “Look at how little ambition you have.”
“Boss.” The little fat man suddenly called out to Meng Ping very seriously.
“Boss, I think we can’t go on like we used to.”
Meng Ping scoffed at the little fat man’s words, “Do you think I’m still the same as before?”
The little fat man shook his head honestly, “Boss, ever since Sheng Ning appeared, you’ve been working really hard to make money, and you’ve changed even more since coming back from your grandfather’s. The little fat man racked his brain and finally said, “Boss, I just feel really useless. Worthless at everything I do, always dragging behind. This time you were kidnapped, I was completely unable to help. If not for Living Yama arriving in time, I might never see you again. I’m not even as capable as Du Xiaosong.”
