🌸 Chapter 113 - 114 🌸

The other man paused for a moment before laughing and saying, "You misunderstood. After a month of assessing, we think that your company has great potential and would be an excellent investment. After learning about your company's entrepreneurial history, CEO Lu believes that people like you and your team will definitely be able to create greater value. It would be such a shame if you resign."

Qin Shao was stunned. "Didn't you previously say..."

"If you have any ideas or opinions, you can contact CEO Lu. CEO Lu will welcome your calls." After saying that, he handed Lu Beichuan's business card to Qin Shao.

Since the Lu's company had decided to acquire Genesis, Lu Beichuan had left the matter to his employees to handle. He never asked any questions about the acquisition. It was as if Lu Beichuan thought Genesis was only a dispensable small company, but Genesis meant everything to Qin Shao.

He had hoped that the company that acquired Genesis would respect and value it instead of seeing it as only a money-making tool.

Holding the business card, Qin Shao was speechless.

It seemed that Lu Beichuan was different from how the rumors portrayed him.

***

By the time Lu Beichuan returned home that evening at 10 PM, he had toiled away at work for many hours. Right after stepping through the doorway, he saw his mother sitting on the couch and looking very worried.

Lu Beichuan halted. "Why are you still awake?"

Mrs. Lu sighed. "I'll go to sleep soon. You should go check on Zhenzhen first."

Her tone sounded off.

"What's wrong?" Lu Beichuan had been busy with work lately. It had already been ten days in a row since he left early in the morning and came home late at night. He hadn't had time to sit down and eat with his family for a while now.

Like a wilted flower, Mrs. Lu waved her hand. She seemed very dejected. "It's nothing. You can go upstairs."

"Just tell me."

Mrs. Lu was silent for a moment. In the end, she couldn't resist complaining to her son. "Zhenzhen almost started arguing with me today."

"What happened?" Was there a crack between the harmonious mother-in-law and daughter-in-law relationship?

"I just... I just prepared a few items in advance for my grandson. Zhenzhen insisted that I'm spoiling the baby too much. I'm the baby's grandma. I only bought a few items. What's wrong with that? There'll definitely be a use for those items when he grows up."

Speaking up to this point, Mother Lu's tone was very aggrieved.

A month ago, she had invited her friends over to drink tea. The day after that, the villa was filled with children's clothing and toys. Even now, she was buying baby's supplies nonstop. And, after the designer had come up with a design, Mother Lu immediately hired workers to renovate the nursery.

She didn't feel as if she had done anything wrong. This was the Lu's only grandson. In the future, the entire Lu family would belong to him! What was the big deal about buying a few items?

Besides, she had bought these items with her personal money.

Although Lu Beichuan didn't know exactly what his mother had purchased, he knew that Ye Zhen had objections to spoiling their child.

"Mom, don't worry. I'll talk to Zhenzhen."

Mrs. Lu quickly reminded him, "Just talk with her. Don't say anything harsh. If she's really unhappy about this, don't insist that she change her mind. Just agree with her. Her intentions are good. She's only thinking about the baby's well-being."

"I understand." After saying that, Lu Beichuan walked upstairs to his master bedroom.

The light in the master bedroom was still on. When he quietly walked in to check, he saw that Ye Zhen was lying near the side of the bed. She had fallen asleep while holding a magazine.

Lu Beichuan took the magazine from Ye Zhen's hand, and she woke up from that movement.

"You're home."

Lu Beichuan kissed her forehead and stroked Ye Zhen's belly that could still be considered flat.

Ye Zhen had already been pregnant for over two months. This was the time in the pregnancy when special care had to be taken.

"How did you feel today?"

Ye Zhen rubbed her belly and pointed. "I feel that I've gotten fat."

After the news of the pregnancy came out, Mother Lu wanted her to eat eight times a day. In the short span of a month, she had gained a double chin depending on the angle and her belly had gotten bigger too.

Ye Zhen was really worried about how fat she would get by the end of her pregnancy.

Lu Beichuan smiled. "It's already been two months. Of course your belly will slowly get bigger. It's better if you gain more weight."

Acting as if he was only casually mentioning this, he asked, "I saw that mom seemed upset when I walked through the living room. What happened?"

"It's nothing." At the mention of this, Ye Zhen thought it over before sitting up and looking at him. "Don't you think mom is going to spoil the baby if she keeps this up?"

"It's not a big deal to buy some baby toys and necessities. If you think it's too much, I'll have the servants move them into storage."

"That's not it."Ye Zhen quietly said, "Mom told me today that she's opened a bank account for the baby. Do you know how much she already put into that account?" She showed the amount using her fingers. There was a horrified expression on her face. "She wants to prepare a house and a car for the baby too."

Lu Beichuan didn't think this was a big deal. He nonchalantly asked, "Is that bad?"

"How could that be good?!" Ye Zhen sternly said, "If she's like this before the baby is born, what will she be like after the baby is born? Will she give him stars and the sun if he wants them? A child shouldn't be too spoiled. What will you do if our kid grows up to be a prodigal fop?"

"Our child won't turn out like that."

Ye Zhen thought of the little bastard in the novel. Clenching her jaw, she said, "That won't do. We have to take preventive measures. All negative possibilities have to be strangled in the cradle!"

Lu Beichuan looked at her tightly furrowed brow. An infinite amount of love appeared in his heart. After thinking it over, he said, "Okay, whatever you say goes. You have full-control of how our child is raised."

"You said those words. You have to mean them."

"En, I said them."

Ye Zhen finally smiled. Suddenly thinking of something, she asked, "Is the company okay?"

"The acquisition of Genesis was finalized today. What you said was right. Qin Shao is a very capable person. If it wasn't for you, I would have lost this talented person."

Lu Beichuan had gained a thorough understanding of Qin Shao as well as Genesis.

Ye Zhen was right. Gaining subordinates like Qin Shao and his team would be very useful to him.

Although it wouldn't be a big deal to lose this talented person, it would become a big deal if he gained another powerful opponent in the future.

"Of course! Everyone has an area of expertise. When it comes to the Internet, he knows more than you, so you should let him do what he does best." Ye Zhen yawned. "Anyways, you have plenty of money."
