Chapter 1 After Zhao Yimeng Heard What Su Yehao Said, She Remained Noncommittal

In this girl's view, Su Yehao had already made a life for himself, so it didn't seem to matter if she joined in.

Although she didn't want to compete with Nangong or Jiang Yu for anything, secretly "borrowing a seed" wasn't a problem. Mainly, she was clear about all aspects of his situation, which was much better than randomly finding someone from the outside.

Just like Su Yehao, from childhood to adulthood, had been instilled with the idea that he needed to rely on himself to expand the family tree and strengthen the family.

In Zhao Yimeng's family, there were only her and her younger sister.

From childhood to adulthood, people had always teased them in front of them, saying things like "What's the point of doing business so big? It's still going to benefit outsiders," or "It's best to find a son-in-law who moves in and has grandsons to inherit the family business."

Under the influence of this environment, it was naturally easy to be affected over time, and they paid more attention to the issue of offspring.

Her life was already particularly fulfilling and complete. Even if she didn't find a man to live with, it wasn't a big deal in Zhao Yimeng's eyes, but she still wanted a baby. This led her to suddenly make a seemingly inexplicable request, hoping to fulfill the wishes of her parents at home.

At this moment.

The eldest Miss Zhao, wearing high heels and sitting there lazily with her legs crossed, said with a smile:

"I've noticed that you, how come you're always eyeing the grass at your doorstep? Actually, you and Vera have hidden it quite well. What really gave you away was that I remembered the London *Times* saying that the wealthy businessman who bought Château Margaux was very mysterious, only that his last name was Andrade. That's too coincidental. I originally thought it was just the same surname. Vera's family doesn't have the strength to swallow Château Margaux, and there's no reason to be so low-key and cover it up. Her family is a wine merchant, after all, so they should want to be as glamorous as possible, so it can help their business."

Su Yehao was speechless and said, "It just so happened that your sister told you that she found out Vera was pregnant, so you linked these things together and immediately thought of me?"

"That's right, never underestimate a woman's intuition. I grew up reading *The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes*."

"...There's nothing to be proud of about that. Reading murder mysteries at such a young age is obviously not conducive to the physical and mental health of teenagers, okay? And the fact that I eat the grass at my doorstep also shows that I'm devoted enough, doesn't it?"

Su Yehao laughed after saying that.

A woman's intuition was indeed a bit magical. For example, Nangong Tian, he was quite sure that she already knew about Yin Liuli and his daughter. Probably more than a year ago, she even indirectly inquired about Linda Yun.

Linda Yun turned around and sold out Nangong Tian, secretly informing him that she asked if there were any old flames lingering outside, or if he had any illegitimate sons or daughters.

Afterward, Nangong Tian never asked Su Yehao about this in person. Since she was bothered by her son all day long, she rarely asked about Su Yehao's private life. As long as he didn't go too far, there would basically be no problems.

Mainly, she couldn't control him anyway, and she would only feel bad if she got angry, so it was better to turn a blind eye and see if Su Yehao was self-aware.

In the past two years, he had indeed been more down-to-earth, turning a blind eye to the many opportunities in his life.

Zhao Yimeng chuckled and teased:

"What do you mean by devoted enough? Compared to your business skills, I admire your thick skin even more. From a modern psychological point of view, you probably have a bit of a problem. It just so happens that I know a pretty good psychologist, so I can introduce you to them if I get the chance."

Su Yehao looked at her and smiled, "Are you subtly calling me sick? Then you still want to have a baby with me? Besides, it seems like you're the only seedling left of the grass at my doorstep. Even if there's a psychological problem, there's no need to treat it anymore, right? It's already incurable anyway."

Casually glancing at Linda Yun passing by, Zhao Yimeng suddenly recalled the long-lost saying of the "Big Four and Little Five Dan Actresses," and widened her eyes in surprise:

"What do you mean by only me left? You wouldn't have feelings for Linda..."

"Stop! Don't let your imagination run wild and ruin someone's reputation. To put it in fresher terms, Linda Yun is a homebody now. Apart from work, she watches dramas, goes shopping, or plays mahjong. She said that she doesn't have any plans to get married, wants to be a single woman, and will travel the world when she saves enough money in the future."

He was too familiar with Linda Yun. Most of Su Yehao's secrets were undisguised in front of her, so he really didn't have any extra thoughts.

Counting her income, Linda Yun not only had a high salary and good benefits, but now she also had a house and shares in her hands, with a total worth of about fifty to sixty million Hong Kong dollars. In fact, she had long had the opportunity to realize her dream of traveling the world.

It was just that she was worried that life would be too boring after she resigned, so she temporarily chose to continue staying by Su Yehao's side.

Anyway, this job already had the opportunity to travel the world. For example, since this year, she had successively gone to Liechtenstein, France, Shanghai, Sijiucheng (Beijing), and now Mogan Mountain.

Not everyone liked to be idle, lying at home and wasting time. Having a relaxed job to do was also quite fulfilling.

The reason why Su Yehao would rather spend more money to hire more people, but also ensure the implementation of the nine-to-five, weekends-off system in the mainland, was because he knew how much work pressure Chinese people were under. In fact, this was not a healthy phenomenon. Normal work should be a combination of work and rest, and should not make people too tired.

For example, in France, working overtime on weekends was illegal, and people enjoyed up to four or five weeks of paid vacation. Therefore, every summer or winter, a large number of French people would run abroad for vacation.

Linda Yun lazed around every day, eating well and living well, and also had the opportunity to ask Su Yehao to help her come up with ideas and find some high-yield investment projects.

Working like her was the kind of good job that even French people would envy to tears. Indeed, there was no reason to resign.

Probably due to intuition again.

This time, Zhao Yimeng believed that there were no sparks between him and Linda Yun. She picked up a book placed on the sofa cabinet and asked curiously, "'Enhanced Sage Writings.' When I was a child, my grandfather used it as my enlightenment book, explaining the principles to me word by word. Why are you reading it?"

"I found it on the bookshelf. Because I remembered my Chinese tutor recommending it to me as extracurricular reading for my son and daughter, I read it when I had nothing to do. There are so many great principles in it, a collection of maxims and proverbs from various traditional cultures. It looks a bit messy, but it also has an internal logic. The ancestors really explained the wisdom of life thoroughly."

Su Yehao looked Zhao Yimeng up and down and asked, "How old were you when you started learning the knowledge in this book?"

"About six or seven years old, why?"

"It's nothing. No wonder you're so rational. I'll wait until my children are a little older and understand things a little better before recommending it to them. 'Observe the present, reflect on the past, without the past, there is no present.' 'Mountain streams rise and fall easily, petty people are fickle.' I've remembered your request today. When the time comes, wash yourself clean and wait for me. Just give me a call."

"...Go to hell. I remember there's another sentence in this book: 'Lately I've learned the turtle's method, when it's time to shrink your head, then shrink your head.' If you make fun of me again, I'll chop off your head with a knife."
