Chapter 1346: Father Will Back You Up
Chu Yi paused and looked at his young son with some surprise. This was the first time the boy had shown any interest in his work.
“Yang family? Which Yang family? Among those seeking a partnership with me recently, the most important has the surname Yang. That’s Yang Xuhua.”
Chu Zheng said, “That’s him, Yang Xuhua!”
Since his son asked, Chu Yi answered him earnestly. This boy had grown up without a father and was very precocious. He was less close to this father that had suddenly appeared than Chu Yue.
Chu Yi had spent a lot of effort building a good relationship with his son.
“It’s not yet confirmed. That person is not quite capable enough, but his family background is fairly good. He’s just too eager for quick gains.”
Chu Zheng said bluntly, “Then Father, can you not work with him? Today when I was out, I met his younger sister and niece. They looked down on me and Younger Sister and said we were poorly brought up. They think that their status is higher because they live in the compound. They discriminate against us because we’re children from outside the compound.
“This is not the first time. The last time we went to Brother Mo Yang’s house to play, we met his niece in the garden. That niece was also very disdainful of children from outside the compound. Brother Mo Yang reprimanded her, but she was still the same this time.
“Oh, and when they found out we’re from the Chu family, that sister of his even blamed Aunt Mo for not telling her! Today Uncle and Aunt Mo taught them a lesson.”
Chu Yi’s expression grew cold. “The Yang family looked down on you?”
Chu Zheng nodded. “Um! She personally admitted that Yang Xuhua is her older brother.”
Chu Yi fumed, “I understand. In that case, of course the partnership is off!”
Bully his children and try to gain any profit from him? Dream on.
Besides the fact that Yang Xuhua was not that capable, Chu Yi would not accept the partnership no matter how important it was.
He had been apart from his children when they were young. They were insecure when it came to him. Now he must ensure they understood that their father was their stoutest defender and would always protect them.
Sure enough, Chu Zheng appeared much happier when he heard that. Strange contentment appeared on his little face.
But soon, his mature side asserted itself and he said, “Then… will it affect Father’s work?”
Chu Yi smiled and stroked his head. “No. Yang Xuhua is not that capable, but his family background is quite good. However, I’m in business. I can do without what he can give me. I’ll just select someone else to form a partnership and it’ll be the same. His younger sister bullied you. I will never partner with someone like that.”
Chu Zheng had been anxious, very anxious.
In fact, he had been very anxious ever since he made that decision in the dessert shop.
Although he had acted so calmly towards Yang Shiyun, inwardly, he had been very worried.
He was worried that Father would not be so accommodating or protective of them. Business partnerships were very important, and the implications were very great. It could not simply be decided by a child like him.
To his surprise, his father had agreed!
That made Chu Zheng extremely pleased.
This feeling of having a father to back him up was just too wonderful!
Chu Zheng smiled. He rarely smiled at Chu Yi. “Thank you, Father!”
Chu Yi stroked his head. “I am your father. Of course I should protect you. If anyone out there bullies you in the future, you must come back and tell me. I will ensure that you get justice.”
