The Birth of Shanghai's First Conglomerate

Two girls also live in Mo Yao's house downstairs.

They were both young female colleagues at the same company. When Chen Pingsheng came to fix their water pipes, the other two girls were still at work.

The water pipe is just old; replacing it will solve the problem.

Girls don't usually do this kind of thing when they're home alone; Chen Pingsheng used to be very good at housework.

Especially when something is broken here or there, he basically fixes it all by himself.

"Alright, just be a little more careful when you use water and electricity in the future."

"Thank you, Brother Chen. I'm so glad I have such a good neighbor upstairs, otherwise I wouldn't know what to do."

"Don't be so polite, it was just a small favor. Besides, you bought me a few packs of good cigarettes, so it wasn't a free help!"

Mo Yao wanted to invite him to have some tea, but Chen Pingsheng waved his hand and declined.

This afternoon he's going to pick Chen Lu up from get out of class, um... mainly because he wants to ride his little electric scooter around for a bit.

This ordinary little life is actually quite nice. After putting on his helmet, Chen Pingsheng drove at a speed of 25 km/h.

Like most people, I waited patiently for the red light and weaved through the crowd.

You just want to abide by the law, but there are always some idiots who think they can get special treatment just because they drive a luxury car.

Chen Pingsheng and a woman on a nearby electric scooter were quietly waiting for the red light to pass in the non-motorized vehicle lane.

A black car behind them kept honking its horn, as if to tell them to move aside.

He can go directly there.

This is a non-motorized vehicle lane, originally for electric bikes; bicycles are for driving on it.

Chen Pingsheng ignored him. The girl next to him was probably furious. She was already tired enough from working, and now she had to be bullied by rich people like him while riding her electric scooter on the road.

Why should anyone be obligated to spoil you from birth?

The girl took off her helmet and immediately retorted, "Look carefully, what kind of lane is this!"

"I don't care which lane you're in, just move aside a little."

She wouldn't allow it, and Chen Pingsheng wouldn't allow it either, so the two of them started arguing.

Then the muscular man suddenly accelerated and hit the little girl.

Chen Pingsheng quickly stopped; this bastard had gone too far.

"Are you blind? You dare to run someone over with your car?"

A crowd gathered around, pointing at the man in the car and cursing him.

That guy with the car might be young, or maybe he really does have some connections in his family.

He said dismissively, "I have full insurance coverage. Even if it's just a light bump, or even if I kill two people like her, I can still afford to pay for it."

This guy is really arrogant!

The traffic police arrived quickly, and he threw away two thousand yuan and left.

The little girl squatted on the ground, tears still streaming down her face. After picking up the two thousand yuan, she could only silently drive away on her electric scooter.

Perhaps in her heart, the minor physical injury is far less serious than the emotional trauma.

That's why they feel wronged and want to cry.

The matter was ultimately handled as a traffic accident. However, unexpectedly, the driver himself posted the video from his dashcam online and rambled on with a lot of harsh words.

Then, he was successfully reported by a helpful netizen.

This is not a traffic accident; it is clearly intentional assault.

How big is the difference between the two?

One case can be resolved simply by claiming insurance money, while the other involves criminal charges. It affects not only oneself but also the entire family.

The child's future career will be affected, and with his popularity, unless he is his own boss...

The company needs to quickly sever ties with him.

In other words, they would fire him immediately in order not to damage their company's business image.

It's no exaggeration to say that this is how he was fired.

Even if the company doesn't give you a single penny, you have nowhere to seek redress.

Driving a BMW 5 Series, he can act all high and mighty in a place like Shenzhen.

It can only be said that it is a very small minority.

These are the few who slipped through the net despite so many years of legal education.

Didn't they realize that their incredible success, which went viral online, would immediately attract the attention of relevant authorities?
This is actually quite normal. If we don't crack down on this kind of behavior, wouldn't many people follow suit in the future?

Chen Pingsheng sighed. He was a rich man himself and couldn't really speak for ordinary people.

Pengcheng is a place with a large number of migrant workers, with one-sixth of them coming from Yunnan Province alone.

Insurance is a financial tool for diversifying risk, and it is rarely used by ordinary people.

The ability to withstand risks will naturally be reduced indefinitely.

Just like that little girl, no matter how wronged she was, she could only shed a few tears and leave.

When Chen Pingsheng arrived at Chen Lu's school, he was walking with Shen Xi.

It's a bit strange. Wasn't this kid quite resistant to the girl his mother arranged for him?
The two seem to get along quite well.

Chen Pingsheng took out a helmet and put it on him, then asked, "How did you get so close to Shen Xi?"

"She's quite pitiful. She clearly doesn't like studying here, but my mother made her come with just a look."

"What, do you think your mother is wrong to do this?"

Chen Lu pursed his lips and remained silent, inwardly acknowledging the accusation but refusing to admit it aloud.

They wouldn't dare admit it.

"Your mother has put a lot of thought into this, but unfortunately you're too young to understand. By the time you do, you'll probably be old enough to be a father yourself."

Chen Lu is still young and has no idea what the adult world is like.

Chen Pingsheng himself did not object to Song Yanxi arranging for this little girl to come, which led to the current awkward situation.

It's not really that awkward.

It's just a child's inner conflict, the restlessness of adolescence.

This period is also the most rebellious time for children and the most worrying time for parents.

After the father and son returned home, Chen Pingsheng told Chen Lu about what happened on the way that day.

Chen Lu remained quite calm; he lacked An An's benevolence and compassion in considering the feelings of ordinary people.

She wasn't as cold-hearted as Erpiya, who was the type who didn't care at all about how her subordinates were doing.

She only cares about herself; she'll do whatever it takes to get paid, and she doesn't care about anything else.

Chen Lu is the kind of person who won't care about anything unless it happens in front of him.

If it happens to him, he will handle the problem according to his own values.

In short, the three in the family are all different in their own way!
