I Became Super Rich After Resigning-Chapter 264 - : Child Betrothal

Chapter 264 -264: Child Betrothal

Yuan Xi listened to Huo Shiyuan’s sour tone and said with a light smile, “Aren’t you busy? You’ve just taken over Shiyi Group; that must keep you quite occupied, right?”

Huo Shiyuan said, “For me, Xiao Xi will always be my top priority.”

Yuan Xi said softly, “I understand. I’ll still find time to fit you into my schedule.”

Huo Shiyuan turned on the shower, and warm water streamed down, instantly filling the bathroom with a misty haze.

About an hour later, the two emerged from the bathroom.

Huo Shiyuan was using the hairdryer to blow-dry Yuan Xi’s hair.

Yuan Xi looked up at Huo Shiyuan and said, “I think Gu Hanchen is serious about making cars. He’s already in talks to acquire Haima Car.”

Huo Shiyuan said, “Haima Car? I’ve never heard of that brand.”

Yuan Xi said, “It’s a local car brand in Jiang City. It used to make amphibious vehicles, but that market is practically non-existent. The owner of Haima has a strong financial background. He used to run a steel structure business, selling the Green Energy Steel Structure Company to invest in Haima Car. Lately, he’s almost squandered the money he got from selling his steel company… With Gu Hanchen funding the acquisition, Haima Car will likely agree to it.”

Huo Shiyuan said, “Green Energy Steel Structure? I remember that company; it’s one of the largest steel structure companies in Jiang City. Why would the founder of Green Energy choose to venture into car manufacturing and make an amphibious vehicle that clearly can’t break into the market?”

Yuan Xi said, “Actually, President Wang’s reason for founding Haima Car is the same as Gu Hanchen’s current motive for making cars. Jiang City has many rivers, and we often hear news about cars ending up in rivers, with none of the passengers being saved. The son and daughter-in-law of Haima’s owner, along with their one-year-old grandchild, died because their car ended up in the river. That’s why, even in his sixties, he invested billions into Haima Car.”

Huo Shiyuan paused in drying Yuan Xi’s hair and asked, “What do you think about Mi Chen getting into car manufacturing?”

Yuan Xi said, “I’m afraid of massive losses, but Chen Yuan and Suisui have a point. Mi Chen needs to transform. It can’t rely solely on the gaming business forever. Gu Hanchen’s idea is clearly going to be a loss-making one… but I want to give it another shot while we are still relatively young.

Nobody could have imagined where Mi Chen would be seven years ago.”

Huo Shiyuan said, “Then I support you. But I hope Chairman Yuan doesn’t spend all day at work and forget about me.”

Yuan Xi laughed lightly at Huo Shiyuan, “How could I forget you?”

Huo Shiyuan tousled Yuan Xi’s hair.

After blow-drying her hair, Yuan Xi picked up Huanhuan, who had just taken a bath. At six months old, Huanhuan was quite stable and even looked like a mini version of Huo Shiyuan. Without Yuan Xi holding Huanhuan, he usually wouldn’t show much emotion.

Lele, on the other hand, was extremely clingy to Yuan Xi, and Yuan Xi also enjoyed the feeling of Lele being attached to her.

Yuan Xi, holding Lele, made a video call to Gu Hanchen.

When Gu Hanchen saw Lele on the screen, he said, “My daughter-in-law.”

Behind Yuan Xi, Huo Shiyuan heard this and chuckled softly, “Your son doesn’t even know where he is yet. It won’t be so easy to marry my Lele.”

Gu Hanchen said, “I’ve got a wife, so why worry about not having a son? Once my son is born, I’ll tell him every day to marry Lele and inherit the Huo Family’s wealth!”

Zhong Xiaoyi, who was by Gu Hanchen’s side, widened her eyes, “What if it’s not a son?”

Gu Hanchen said, “If I have a daughter, I’ll let her get close to An An from a young age. Marrying An An in the future will also mean inheriting the Huo Family’s wealth.”

Huo Shiyuan said, “I was actually planning to discuss the acquisition of Haima Car with you, but it looks like I can forget about it now…”

Gu Hanchen hurriedly said: “Just a joke, just a joke, President Huo, please be generous and don’t hold it against me.”

Gu Hanchen said: “I am going to send Xiao Yi to Australia in a couple of days, I’ll come over to A City tomorrow to have a face-to-face meeting with the two of you.”

After hanging up the phone, Yuan Xi hugged Lele tightly, “In the future, you’ll have to stay far away from Gu Hanchen’s son.”

Like father, like son, Yuan Xi really couldn’t bear the thought of Lele marrying Gu Hanchen…

Jiang City.

After packing their luggage, Gu Hanchen and Zhong Xiaoyi drove to Chu Lin’s place.

Chu Lin had moved to a new house and invited Gu Hanchen over today as a guest.

Upon entering Chu Lin’s mansion, Gu Hanchen surveyed the decoration and said, “This mansion isn’t bad, but it lacks some children’s facilities, isn’t your child about to be born? Today, I discussed setting up a marriage arrangement for my sister with Huo Shiyuan, and they were unwilling. I wouldn’t mind discussing a marriage arrangement for your child either.”

Chu Lin turned his gaze to Zhong Xiaoyi, “Gu Hanchen, didn’t you say that Xiao Yi is going to Australia to study? How can she study if she’s pregnant with a child?”

Zhong Xiaoyi quickly waved her hands and explained: “I’m not pregnant, there’s nothing between Mr. Gu and me.”

Gu Hanchen gave Zhong Xiaoyi a glare.

Chu Lin looked at Gu Hanchen and smiled, then poured him a glass of wine and said, “Have a drink?”

Gu Hanchen, feeling joked about, said gloomily: “I don’t have a driver today, so I won’t drink.”

“I’ll have my driver take you,” Chu Lin said slowly, “Have a drink, I heard you’re purchasing Haima Car?”

Gu Hanchen nodded and said, “Yes.”

Chu Lin slowly said, “Haima Car is entirely a loss-making business, with huge losses already. Though its car manufacturing industry chain is indeed mature, after you acquire it, it will be a bottomless pit.”

Gu Hanchen said, “When I first started Mi Chen, no one believed in me either, Chu Lin, I want to take one last crazy leap while I’m young.”

Chu Lin looked at Gu Hanchen and said, “I really envy you. You can make your own decisions about everything and have completely broken away from the Gu Family.”

Gu Hanchen said, “Brother, don’t talk like that, don’t you know why I left the Gu Family? With my parents’ favoritism, the company went to my sister, and I was sent to do tough missions in pirate-infested regions. I treasure my life too much. If I were the young master of Chu Neng, I would never give away Gu Shipping to Gu Nuan.”

Chu Lin said, “Being the young master of Chu Neng isn’t that easy, at least Aunt Gu has never been overbearing towards you.”

“You just never saw when he was overbearing to me,” Gu Hanchen said. “Look at you being all sentimental, about to become a father.”

Chu Lin said, “If I had a choice, I wouldn’t want to be that kid’s father at all.”

“If you weren’t my brother, I’d have to punch you for saying that!” Gu Hanchen said. “Man up a little, will you? Your child will hate you if they heard you say that. Be nice to my future son-in-law or daughter-in-law…”

Chu Lin laughed, “Aren’t you intending to set up a marriage arrangement with Lele and An An?”

Gu Hanchen said, “I didn’t say I was only going to have one child.”
