Wealth rankings, stock market, financial market trends...
This is bound to cause significant turmoil.
Huo Tingdong said, "I don’t want to give her even the slightest hope."
Actually, he is not lacking in means. If he really wanted to, he could use a thousand methods to terminate Song Shuyan’s pregnancy.
But to eliminate the problem, one must remove the roots.
Since Song Shuyan coveted his assets, then he would divide the assets in advance. When the time comes, Song Shuyan would definitely realize that even if she stubbornly gives birth to the children, he would neither acknowledge nor support them, let alone leave any assets for these children. Once she realizes this, she can decide what to do with the children!
Lin Qi asked, "How much assets do you have under your name?"
These immense assets must be troublesome to divide!
Huo Tingdong slightly furrowed his brows, "Do you know how much assets I have?"
Lin Qi shook her head, "I haven’t calculated."
Huo Tingdong said, "Perhaps if I tell you the specific number, you won’t grasp the concept. Just think, from the day you were born, if you won a lottery of 5 million every day, and under the premise of not paying taxes, you continue to win for 100 years, for five generations straight."
Winning a 5 million lottery is so difficult!
To win every day, and even for five generations in her long life!!!
She suddenly understood why Song Shuyan was so desperate to have Huo Tingdong’s children!
Lin Qi said, "I knew you were rich before, but I didn’t realize you were THIS rich!!"
Does she really not know anything?
Lin Qi said, "Huo Tingdong, if you’re that rich, even if you were a vegetable in bed back then, considering this amount of money, many people would have been willing to stay as your widow! Why did your grandma specifically choose me back then?"
Huo Tingdong said, "Because... her purpose was simple, just wanting to continue the Huo Family’s lineage. She arranged for you to marry me just hoping you would continue the family line. Given your family background, you wouldn’t pose any threat to the custody of the child. Before marrying me, she must have matched your horoscope, right?"
Lin Qi nodded, "Yes, not only did she match the horoscope, but she also made me sign a prenuptial agreement."
That’s when she finally understood.
Old Madam Huo was all about catching a big fish with empty hands.
She was too naive before, sold and still counting money for others!
Lin Qi said, "You decide on this matter. Anyway, I won’t suffer."
She is not only not at a disadvantage but also stands to benefit. Why not?
Huo Tingdong: "Do you think you can accept me handling it this way?"
Lin Qi nodded, "Sure! Does this mean I can just lie down and do nothing now?"
In Huo Tingdong’s words, she would wake up every day, drop-land 5 million for her to spend, and once the 5 million is spent, she could wake up to another 5 million.
She could lie down and be a freeloader, with her daily task being just to spend money and enjoy life!
Huo Tingdong said, "You can still resign now."
Lin Qi smiled and looped her arm around his shoulder, "Once you’ve split the assets with me, could I become the richest woman?"
Huo Tingdong chuckled.
He saw her as a complete money fiend!
For some reason, while he despised Song Shuyan’s insatiable greed for wealth, Lin Qi’s money-fiend appearance seemed rather cute to him.
Lin Qi left the president’s office and returned to the workplace.
Han Na saw her and asked, "Where have you been?"
Lin Qi sat down at her spot, beaming from ear to ear.
She looked at Han Na and suddenly winked mysteriously, "I’m getting married!"
Han Na exclaimed loudly, "You’re getting married!?"
She couldn’t control her voice, and everyone in the office heard her.
They lifted their heads, looking in Han Na’s direction.
Lin Qi’s face blushed, chiding, "Why are you so loud?"
Han Na covered her mouth, somewhat embarrassed, "I got excited and lost control... Lin Qi, why are you so nervous? You’re getting married, that’s great news!"
Zhou Xiaoying smiled, "Lin Qi, you’re getting married? Did your boyfriend propose to you?"
Lin Qi was slightly embarrassed and quickly said, "Not exactly a proposal, but we’ll get our certificate first."
Zhou Xiaoying asked with a smile, "Will we get wedding candies?"
Lin Qi replied, "Yes, everyone in the project team will get some."
Maeve suddenly said sourly, "It’s just a marriage, why the excitement? It’s not your first marriage!"
This comment instantly charged the atmosphere.
Lin Qi looked at Maeve, knowing Maeve was picking a quarrel on purpose.
Maeve then said, "Does your boyfriend know about your previous marriage?"
Lin Qi naturally replied, "Of course, there’s nothing to hide."
However, Maeve didn’t believe it and said sarcastically, "He knows and still wants to be the rebound guy? Be careful, most men don’t have the patience for their own children, let alone treat you and your son from your previous husband kindly!"
Lin Qi rested her chin on her hand, poised and ready, retorting, "Ms. Mia, you sound quite sour. Seeing me getting married well, are you displeased?"
Maeve’s face changed color, "How could that be? We’re colleagues, if you marry well, I’d definitely be happy for you! Just afraid you might choose poorly again, and your second marriage ends in failure too! If you divorce twice, you’ll depreciate even more."
The atmosphere turned awkward to the extreme.
Zhou Xiaoying looked at Maeve and said indifferently, "Is that necessary, Maeve? Like you said, we are colleagues. When a colleague is getting married, just offer your congratulations. Why throw such cold water?"
Maeve defiantly said, "I’m just looking out for her! There are so many male colleagues in the project team, ask around, how many would like to marry a woman who’s had a second marriage with a son?"
After saying this, she turned and looked at a male subordinate beside her, "Would you?"
The male subordinate awkwardly shook his head, "I wouldn’t. Not just someone with a son, even women who’ve been divorced once, I wouldn’t want to marry."
The other male colleagues also chimed in with a hint of sarcasm, "It’s different with a rich woman. Unless she’s very rich, otherwise why would I marry ’used goods’?"
"Yes, unless she has millions of net worth, why should I be the rebound guy?"
"Only if she gifts me a house and a Mercedes-Benz G-Wagon before marriage!"
Lin Qi said, "It turns out you all like being leeches."
Everyone was stunned.
Lin Qi said, "People like to dream, but you have to distinguish between dreams and reality. Leeching isn’t that easy. Even if you want to, you’re not in line."
A few male colleagues became furious, almost ready to explode.
Maeve, however, coldly chuckled, "Lin Qi, don’t get angry. I was wrong, and I didn’t mean to hurt you with my words. Don’t take it to heart. I wasn’t implying that you’re second-hand and worthless. I just hope, you’ve had an unhappy marriage before, I hope your new marriage ends well."
