The Birth of Shanghai's First Conglomerate

Chapter 374 The Weaknesses of Human Nature

The next day in the urban village.

The light rain continued to fall on the streets outside this urban village.

At this moment, however, were two top-of-the-line MVP vans parked.

The person who came was a petite woman, who was also carrying an umbrella and wearing a white face mask.

As if afraid of being recognized, they covered themselves up completely.

The man with her was her co-star in the recently popular period drama.

The two walked together without their assistants following them until they arrived at the Worry-Free Restaurant.

Seeing the busy figure cooking in the kitchen, Zhao Liying took off her mask and said, "Brother Chen."

Not to mention the people in the urban village, they would never imagine that the big boss of Tengying would be working as a chef here. Even the big stars of Tengying Group would never dare to imagine that the number one capitalist in the entertainment industry would be so powerful.

He actually came here to work as a stir-fry chef because of his daughter.

Chen Pingsheng took the white towel off his shoulder. "Liying, what brings you here?"

"I've come to let you know that I'm getting married."

"Sure, when would you like to schedule it?"

"Of course, when you have time."

Chen Pingsheng invited her inside. The two were old acquaintances, having known each other for over five years as both teacher and friend.

It's normal for Zhao Liying to get married at this age, but she came specifically to tell him.

Without that moving experience, she might still be just a minor extra.

"I don't plan to go out for a while. Let's wait until An'an has been here for two months before we talk about it!"

“Okay.” Zhao Liying asked him, “Brother Chen, is teaching kids quite tiring?”

"It wasn't exactly tough."

Chen Pingsheng poured her a cup of tea. "Isn't that what parents are like? They struggle in the first half of their lives and live for their children in the second half. An'an is about to graduate from elementary school. If I don't spend more time with her, I'm afraid I won't be able to accompany her as she grows up properly."

"You'll understand when you become a mother."

Zhao Liying nodded in agreement.

She still remembers the look of longing in Xiao An'an's eyes as she took care of herself alone at home in that rented room, waiting for her parents to come home every day.

As parents, we have to be responsible for our children.

She came quickly and left even faster, and she still has quite a few fans in the urban villages.

Nobody knew that a queen of the drama industry had arrived.

Even her own assistant looked at the Worry-Free Restaurant with disbelief.

Chen An'an only came out of the bathroom after she left.

As the older sister, she has to take care of the little one's diaper rash.

The little girl is so fussy; when she first arrived, she couldn't poop at all because the bathroom was too small.

She cried for several days in a row, but later, with the constant guidance of her older sister, she recovered.

They finally compromised.

The main problem is that she can't hold it in. If she dared to poop in her pants at the age of three, her older sister would really leave her outside and not let her in.

"Dad, Aunt Pei Yao said that Sister Liying came by?"

"Yes, they came and they left."

"Then why doesn't she come to see me?"

"I told her not to look at you."

Fine, she's been forced into this situation by her dad again.

Chen An'an and Zhao Liying have a very good relationship. Their friendship, forged in hardship since childhood, is completely different from the friendships they have with other people they know now.

"Dad, Brother Qiang hasn't come out to set up his stall yet. Is he unable to make it out?"

"Probably not."

Chen Pingsheng said, "The feelings that you thought were inseparable when you were young are just things you can only shake your head and laugh when you look back on them as you get older. Besides, people like A-Qiang are actually very selfish. His parents raised him, but do you see him spend a single penny on his parents after he earns money?"

"The flowers are all on the woman's body; most pitiful people have their own pitiful aspects."

Chen An'an thought about it and agreed; this behavior was indeed not worth it.

Chen Pingsheng will only help him leave that woman, not help him find a suitable partner.

That's not necessary.

If Ah-Qiang had any regard for his parents, he wouldn't be living such a miserable life.

Chen Pingsheng was actually afraid that Chen An'an would be blinded by love when she grew up.

That's why he specifically arranged Ah Qiang's story.

It's unwise for a man to date a gold digger, and it's equally unwise for a woman to pursue love from a lower social class.

Chen An'an had no idea of ​​the profound meaning behind her father's arrangement; she simply felt that A-Qiang was too pitiful.

In her opinion, A-Qiang is a hardworking and ambitious person.

In Chen Pingsheng's view, this was a selfish person who would abandon his parents once he had a woman in his heart.

Such a person doesn't deserve any sympathy. I still remember when he first got married, Mr. and Mrs. Chen were still living in a dilapidated little house in the countryside.

It took him three whole years to build them a stylish two-story house.

The kindness of parents should never be forgotten.

His wife didn't object to it, which is why they lived a very frugal life in Beijing for many years.

Having a kind heart is a good thing, but it's also important to apply that kindness to the essence of things.

Instead of being overly kind-hearted like Chen An'an is now, wanting to help anyone who is pitiful.

Chen Pingsheng could only guide her to experience it for herself.

Before long, the three most notorious pickpockets in the urban village arrived.

The reason he is called the most famous pickpocket is because he was only eleven years old.

It's pitifully small.

And this eleven-year-old with three hands was also leading a two- or three-year-old child.

Ever since Chen An'an learned his story, she would always prepare some food for him, pack it up, and leave it at his door.

Let them take it themselves at noon, and the same goes for evening.

She's been doing this for a month now.

The eleven-year-old boy had been a homeless person who had come here two years ago.

As for the three-year-old child, it was simply because his parents had him at an age when they shouldn't have had him.

A couple, both not even twenty years old, had a child together while still young.

Then, because they couldn't afford to raise the child and didn't want to take responsibility, they abandoned the child in this place.

The parents then went their separate ways immediately after the child was born.

Two young parents who haven't really grown up yet gave birth to such a pitiful child.

Then he was taken care of by the three pickpockets who had wandered there.

Life's passersby are so inexplicable.

Even Chen An'an couldn't think of a way to help them, so she simply provided them with some food at noon.

That child never said thank you; perhaps he simply didn't know how to say thank you.

Because no one taught him, and no one told him to be grateful to those who helped him.

He stole quite a few things from here, but the stall owners didn't say much to him.

What can anyone say about a homeless child, an abandoned child who was born but not raised?

That's how urban villages are; all sorts of people come from there.

All sorts of stories intertwine here.

Just like Chen Pingsheng himself, he would only observe coldly and would not take the initiative to intervene.

Unless his daughter comes looking for him.

Even Jiang Peiyao, who was standing to the side, didn't quite understand the educational significance of his teaching.
At least she wasn't taught like that when she was little.

Her parents were just ordinary farmers; they might understand a little bit of reason, but when they put it into words, it turned into corporal punishment.

My brother-in-law is different; he has great wisdom, the kind of true wisdom.

As he once said, the most terrifying thought for many second-generation rich kids after taking over the family business is that they want to prove themselves and surpass their fathers.

I don't want to live under my parents' protection forever.

Then began a series of bold and unconventional moves.

Finally, the company went bankrupt.

The business that their parents built with their entire lives was ultimately ruined by them.

What her brother-in-law wanted to teach An'an was perhaps never to surpass her father.

But what truly taught her was the meaning of corporate responsibility?
Upholding this responsibility is the true foundation for her future.

Parents' love is far-reaching and profound.

Her brother-in-law is not only a good husband, but also a good father, a good son, and a good teacher to the children in the family.

He always seemed so at ease and responsible in every role he played.

Sometimes Jiang Peiyao would feel distressed, thinking that her brother-in-law was good in every way.

After spending a lot of time with him, it seems like all men become just so-so.

It has a lot of problems.

As usual, Chen An'an prepared two decent meals for the little boy.

She thought she was doing a good deed, but she didn't realize that human nature simply cannot withstand the test.

in the afternoon.

A three-year-old boy was hospitalized due to illness.

Led by the homeless children, Uncle Hat found Chen An'an, the culprit. (End of Chapter)
