Tao Liangchen
Chapter 727 Showdown
Inside the small tavern.
After Tang Laoma left early, Jiang Yu had finally managed to get herself thoroughly drunk.
Nangong Tian couldn't worry about much else for the time being, she had to take care of this drunkard. Remembering that Hong Kong Hao Tourism Group was nearby, she decided to call Jiang Shiye, but unfortunately, the call wouldn't go through.
She thought about finding a hotel outside, using it to prove how "very angry" she was, but she was afraid that Su Yehao would worry and feel bad. In the end, Nangong Tian took Jiang Yu back to Big Wave Bay.
At the same time.
Jiang Shiye and his wife were having dinner on Su Laodiejr.'s yacht.
The yacht was sailing in Victoria Harbour, and Su Laodie, pointing toward the Peninsula Hotel in Tsim Sha Tsui, hiccuped and said:
"We've known each other for so many years, and today my son has let down little Jiang Yu. As parents, we have to consider our children. As the saying goes, 'Better to destroy ten temples than break up a marriage.' Give little Jiang Yu to my son, and you two can rest assured. This time, as a gesture of apology, all the rental income from that Peninsula Hotel will be collected by my daughter-in-law. Children and grandchildren have their own fortunes; we're getting older, so we can just help them along the way."
Jiang Shiye and his wife could be said to have achieved their current success by relying on the big tree that was the Su family.
One had been a shiye (legal advisor/secretary) at Four Seas International for twenty years, and the other had been an accountant at Four Seas International for over twenty years. They had known Su Laodie for many years, and the two families were closely intertwined.
Hearing Su Laodie's statement, Jiang Yu's parents had a strange feeling, as if they had always been in a superior-subordinate relationship, and now they were being pulled up to the same level, gaining both face and substance.
Even Jiang Yu's mother, who felt sorry for her daughter, couldn't find much fault with the situation at that moment.
The frustration in her heart had dissipated for the most part, and she thought that she couldn't erase all the good things Su Yehao had done for her daughter because of one incident.
The jewelry, money, and the open-air market on Taipa Island in Casino, worth hundreds of millions, were enough to show that he really cared about Jiang Yu.
As for Jiang Shiye, he himself had been a playboy in his younger years and was well aware of such matters, so he wasn't too surprised.
Staring at the Peninsula Hotel, Jiang Shiye's Hong Kong Hao Tourism Group sent tourists to this hotel in the bustling Yau Tsim Mong district every day. How could he not know how good the business was, with a monthly turnover of at least HK$3.5 million?
The money was secondary; the key was that the sincerity was particularly impressive.
As the head of the family, Jiang Shiye stated:
"Hai-ge, my wife and I have watched little Hao grow up since he was a child. It's normal for young people to be active-minded, and they inevitably make mistakes. We can let this matter go, but it mainly depends on what my daughter thinks. At most, we can only say a few good words for him. If they can go on together for a long time, I will be relieved."
Ever since Jiang Yu and Su Yehao started dating, her mother had anticipated that similar scenes might occur. At this moment, she also nodded and said, "Xiao Hao is a pretty good person. With his status, there are too many temptations around him, so Hai-ge, you need to talk to him as well. Our family only has this one precious daughter, so of course, we want Xiao Yu to be happy."
Hearing these words, Su Laodie understood that he had basically completed the task entrusted to him by his wife, and immediately stated, "Don't worry, I'll give him a beating when I get home. He was really out of line this time. Although my son is naughty, he's very serious about Jiang Yu. I believe that after this incident, he will understand the importance of things..."
Looking at his phone, Jiang Shiye finally noticed the missed calls.
He called back and learned that his daughter was drunk and resting at Big Wave Bay. He found an excuse and artificially created an opportunity for Su Yehao to talk things out.
Nangong Tian's mother also called her daughter. While mother and daughter were talking about Su Yehao's bad points, she also told her daughter to vent her anger and then stop, so as not to escalate the situation to the point where it couldn't be salvaged.
Having run the Liren Huangting Club for many years, Madam Nangong had seen many other people's affairs. In her opinion, this incident was still forgivable, and there was no need to make a mountain out of a molehill, only to find that she couldn't clean up the mess in the end.
...
Su Yehao definitely made the right move by having his parents step in.
He himself went directly to Pengcheng and found Yin Liuli at the Shahe Golf Club, where he confessed and begged for forgiveness while preemptively exposing his shortcomings.
He didn't want her to find out about the situation from the newspapers after the news broke tomorrow, which would make him seem even more despicable.
Now that things had developed to this point, there was no need to hide anything.
Coming to her first was obviously choosing the easy target, taking advantage of Yin Liuli's good temper.
Faced with Su Yehao's sweet words, Yin Liuli wasn't too angry. To her, this kind of thing was expected and would happen sooner or later.
Sitting on the sofa at this moment, Yin Liuli drank her tea and said calmly, "I understand. Since you're being watched, coming to see me would only add fuel to the fire. And... besides me, how many other women are there in your life?"
"...Three, Nangong Tian, Jiang Yu, and Nong Qingying, who is about to have a child. From beginning to end, it's only been you."
"Really?"
Yin Liuli was a little surprised, and then asked, "But I usually see so many more in the newspapers."
"Those are just groundless gossip. I think that if we're together, we should be responsible to the end. This has already kept me busy, so how would I dare to invite more trouble? I don't like messing around outside."
After listening to Su Yehao, Yin Liuli felt that something was off.
However, the information she had just received was much better than what she usually imagined.
Even if he was a playboy, he was the more responsible kind among a bunch of playboys.
Considering her own situation, Yin Liuli believed that Su Yehao wasn't lying at this moment.
After all, if he were to completely let himself go, with his conditions, what kind of beauty couldn't he get? How could he have been in a relationship with her for over three years?
Although she was beautiful, Yin Liuli admitted that she didn't have many advantages compared to many female stars and heiresses.
For example, Zhao Yimeng, who had been rumored to be with Su Yehao, or even Hollywood actress Jessica Alba, made her feel very ordinary.
Pouring some tea for Su Yehao, Yin Liuli said with a smile:
"You must be very busy, right? Don't worry about me. Go and handle the others' affairs. I finally understand why you asked me to move to another place. If it was me who was exposed today, I might go crazy. Just thinking about it gives me goosebumps."
"...I really can't stay for long. Are you really okay? You're pregnant now, so you need to take care of your health."
As soon as Su Yehao finished asking, Yin Liuli nodded and said, "It's really okay. I was prepared for this when I fell in love with someone like you. I even worried that your real girlfriend would come knocking on my door after being discovered. I'm just glad that it wasn't me who was exposed by the reporters. I should have been more low-key than before. I should have moved back to my old home on the island."
Su Yehao chuckled and replied, "It's not that exaggerated, but it's just that you're suffering. Maybe we won't be able to be together openly for a while."
"Some people like to stand in the spotlight. I'm fine as I am now. There are large green meadows outside the window, and I can go to the beach. I can also meet many club guests every day."
Yin Liuli finally knew the answer she had been curious about for so long, and she was in a really good mood at this moment.
After sitting for a while, she told Su Yehao to go ahead and get busy and come back next time when he had time.
