The Birth of Shanghai's First Conglomerate

Chapter 179 First Birthday

5 month 28 number.

Chen Xinyi celebrated her first birthday, and the little girl wore a golden princess crown.

There is also a very dazzling sapphire in the middle.

This was taken by her mother for 18 million dollars, along with this golden princess crown.

It's definitely worth 20 million.

Jewelry does have some collectible value, but such an expensive first birthday gift was still given to relatives of the Song and Liu families in the capital.

It's truly shocking.

Keep in mind, Chen Xinyi is only one year old.

The stroller she was riding in alone cost a whopping $90,000, or 600,000 RMB.

Add to that the headpiece she's wearing, and you can imagine how extravagant Song Yanxi's family is.

Just outrageous.

Anyway, most of the more normal relatives can't understand it.

Chen Qi sat down sullenly to one side; her brother was also quite angry with her.

Of course, I wasn't angry with her, I just felt that she didn't need to do anything to deliberately hide her identity.

That kind of plot only belongs in mindless idol dramas.

Normal people know that they should look for someone whose status and position match their own.

Her brother was also severely insulted by them.

this is the truth.

It's the same principle as when a wealthy man's family looks down on a poor woman's family.

Even if a woman has a lot of money, she still shouldn't choose a man who has nothing.

Marrying someone of equal social standing is not just a saying.

"In my life, I don't even have a place to hang the little Pegasus I made for Xinyi."

Chen Xinyi was truly adorned with jewels today.

The gold horse anklet on her left foot was a gift from Zhao Liying.

The big golden horse hanging around her neck was given to her by Yang Mi, and she also wore it on her two little hands, making her quite full.

The little kid was very happy, waving his limbs around non-stop.

The few sparse gray hairs on her head showed that she was still very young, and her face was full of chubby baby fat.

She has a really cute smile.

Liu Fen made money from stock trading and was generous with her spending on her granddaughter, even spending over 100,000 yuan to get her a small golden horse pendant.

Chen Xinyi grabbed the little golden horse with her chubby little hands and stuffed it into her arms.

She's loved money since she was little, that's something else.

Outside.

After inquiring for two days, Liu's mother, Liu Wenhao, and his sister-in-law specially brought gifts to visit.

When Liu's mother saw that they actually lived in the Fifth Ring Road, she was still a little incredulous.

Look at the cars parked in front of other people's houses.

A red LaFerrari, costing over 20 million, ended up costing nearly 30 million.

A black and gold Bugatti costs over four thousand yuan after taxes and fees.

There were also Rolls-Royce Phantoms, Bentley SUVs, and Maybach S680s nearby.

With that row of dazzling cars, Liu's mother knew perfectly well that her eldest daughter-in-law hadn't lied to her at all.

Their family's financial situation is probably even more exaggerated than she described.

When Liu's mother recalled what she had said in front of others that day, she blushed.

I can't believe it.

Her youngest son posed as a real estate agent, and his seemingly ordinary girlfriend turned out to be from a wealthy family.

They are on a completely different level from their family.

"Wenhao, did you see that?"

The eldest sister-in-law turned to Liu Wenhao and instructed him, "Those cars that our family can't afford are just for display here. No matter what, you must win her back."

Liu Wenhao was initially quite proud, but upon seeing this scene, although he felt unwilling, he still wanted to win her back.

The three people came to her door, but Liu Fen didn't recognize them at all.

However, today is her granddaughter's birthday, so there are many guests.

It's normal for her to have a few more people she doesn't recognize.

"Who are you three looking for?"

"Chen Qi, we're looking for Chen Qi."

My sister-in-law is very shrewd; she knew to look for Chen Qi first as soon as she opened her mouth.

Only by appeasing her can I have a chance to regain Chen Pingsheng's approval.

If she can't even get past this hurdle, then there's no point in even thinking about seeing that person.

Just pack it up and take it home.

Chen Qi has been in Beijing for almost three years and has only had this one boyfriend.

It would be a lie to say there were no feelings involved; she was just angry that he didn't come out to comfort her.

So I haven't even replied to any messages these past two days.

They even blocked him directly.

But I didn’t block him.

"Xiaoqi, I'm your sister-in-law!"

Liu Wenhao spotted Chen Qi; she was anything but ordinary today.

The small bag she wore around her waist was a limited edition Hermès, a gift from her sister-in-law.

The white dress is a new summer design from Chanel, costing over ten thousand yuan.

The little leather shoes are also Chanel.

Her top-of-the-line outfit made her look incredibly elegant.

How did you get here?

It's best if someone is willing to talk to you. The sister-in-law quickly apologized, "Chen Qi, my Wenhao just couldn't bear to part with you, so he specifically asked me to bring you a gift."

Chen Qi glanced at Liu Wenhao, and seeing that he didn't say anything, she hummed twice and turned to go inside.

The eldest sister-in-law and Liu's mother wanted to bring Liu Wenhao in as well, but Liu Fen blocked them at the door.

She exclaimed, "Wow!" She had looked down on her out-of-town son-in-law, Chen Pingsheng, and had been laughed at by her relatives for years.

For several years, she had not received a single benefit from this son-in-law from out of town.

Her treatment improved slightly after her granddaughter Chen Xinyi was born and she helped take care of the child.

Now I've met someone like me.

Why do they look down on Chen Pingsheng's sister who came to visit?

Chen Qi is now a genuine female billionaire.

And she's still quite young.

There's no harm without comparison.

With you all here, I, Liu Fen, wasn't too outrageous before.

"Uh...you three, you can't come in!"

Liu Fen, munching on sunflower seeds, stood guard outside the door, refusing to let them in.

"We've come to see Chen Qi, and this is the gift we brought. Could you please let us in?"

"What are you going in for?"

Liu Fen said, "My daughter said she doesn't welcome you. You should go back to where you came from."

Who is your daughter?

“The one celebrating her birthday inside is my granddaughter. Which one do you think is my daughter?” Liu Fen said proudly.

So they're an elder.

The eldest sister-in-law was quite bold, saying, "Oh, it's Song Ma! Please forgive us for not recognizing you. These are some local specialties we brought for you. Please take a look."

Did you bring this especially for her?
Do I know you?
Liu Fen wouldn't let them in at all.

Liu Wenhao felt he couldn't bear the humiliation, so he grabbed his sister-in-law and left.

"Don't embarrass yourself. At worst, I'll just find another rich girl. What's so great about that?"

"You..." His sister-in-law looked at him as if he were an idiot. She used to think he was alright, but now she thought he was naive, stupid, and childish.

Do you really think rich girls are as common as cabbages, something you can just pick up whenever you want?

Don't you know your own limitations?

Meeting one is already a blessing earned over several lifetimes; I wish I could meet a second one.

Dreaming?
My family is on the verge of bankruptcy; I have no idea how serious it is!

"I think so too."

Liu's mother added fuel to the fire, saying, "With Wenhao's qualities, he could find any rich girl he wants. Why should he beg her family?"

It’s over.

The eldest sister-in-law threw down the gift in her hand, knowing that this time she was completely finished.

Go back and prepare to grab as much of the family fortune as possible before bankruptcy, and then get a divorce.

……

Chen Qi went back.

She was then pulled in front of Chen Pingsheng by her sister-in-law, Song Yanxi.

Chen Pingsheng looked at her seriously. "What, you can't bear to part with it?"

"Brother, Wenhao is a good guy."

"He's considered good?"

Chen Pingsheng almost thought he was deaf. "Are you brainless? Or have you eaten too much good food and become completely love-struck?"

"Brother, why did you say such harsh things?" Chen Qi was still young and got angry.

Chen Pingsheng took out a stack of documents and placed them in front of her.
“Look closely, the Liu family started out in construction, and all their projects were obtained through a relative in the Land and Resources Bureau. Just last year, that relative was investigated.”

"It is serious corruption. In less than a year, the Liu family has been exposed for all sorts of problems. In the past, they relied on their connections in the Land and Resources Bureau to get projects and act arrogantly in their personal lives."

"Now that they've fallen, countless people are rushing in to trample them to death. If you still want to marry into such a family, you should leave the capital as soon as possible."

"I don't know..." Chen Qi didn't expect that in less than two days, her brother had investigated the whole area thoroughly.

"You don't know this, but when you were being scolded that day, did that guy surnamed Liu come out to chase after you?"

Chen Ping said angrily, "Such a mama's boy is so irresponsible, and you actually say he's good? Chen Qi, I really overestimated you."

Chen Qi was almost brought to tears by his scolding, but her own brother treated her extremely well.

But when it comes to cursing, he's ruthless.

It can be said that Chen Pingsheng disliked Liu Wenhao's weakness and lack of responsibility.

Secondly, they look down on the Liu family, who have just lost their relatives and resources from the government and are on the verge of bankruptcy.

How many people did you offend when you got the project?
When you're doing well, these people don't move at all.

If you experience any disturbance or crisis...

These people all seized the opportunity and rushed forward.

I will definitely crush you under my feet.

That's why they say having more friends means having more options in the business world, and you should always leave yourself an out.

Clearly, this Liu family is getting their comeuppance.

Under these circumstances, how could he possibly let his younger sister marry into such a mess?

Chen Qi was scolded to tears, and Song Yanxi rolled her eyes at him before pulling Chen Qi away to comfort her.

She had heard about what happened over there, but Chen Ping wasn't actually angry about the humiliation he had suffered in the past.

Instead, Liu Wenhao watched as his younger sister was scolded like that, and he didn't say a word.

Don't even dare to fart.

You should know that when he was often ridiculed to his face by Liu Fen, Song Yanxi would throw down her chopsticks before he did.

If even your closest loved ones can't protect you, then don't expect to have a good life in the future.

This has nothing to do with money; it has to do with a man's responsibility.

Song Yanxi also looked down on Liu Wenhao; she'd rather find that apple vendor outside than him.

Chen Qi is heartbroken now, but she won't be heartbroken for long.

It's the 21st century, who still lives and dies for love?

The next day, she went to Shuiyunjian online to watch the drama unfold.

Children's Day is just around the corner, and Big Paw Kid's school has some activities planned.

Both he and his wife were going to attend; in another two weeks, their family would be moving to a courtyard house in the Second Ring Road area.

I only come back to visit Shijingshan occasionally.
