Outrageous! Who said my wife is vain?!

After discussing for a long time, the group finally decided to eat Cantonese food, leaving the choice of restaurant to Chu Yu.

After all, they had only met Chu Yu for the first time, and even if their first impression was good, they still couldn't figure out what kind of temperament this boss really was.

They're not clueless newbies. If you let them choose, whether the restaurant is cheap, expensive, good, or bad, it's all bad.

Chu Yu didn't waste any words and directly looked online for nearby Cantonese restaurants with good reviews and ambiance.

In the end, we chose Hongyue Bay, which cost a little over 500 yuan per person and was less than a ten-minute drive from Shenghong.

After entering the private room, Chu Yu told them to order whatever they liked, and then added several more of his signature dishes.

Huang Xinci and the others exchanged glances. "Great! Looks like a generous boss."

After a moment of silence, Lin Chuan stood up, raised his glass, and bowed slightly to Chu Yu, saying, "President Chu, this glass is a toast to you, not only to thank you for the meal, but also to thank you for giving us this opportunity to showcase our talents. Although our conversation with you has only lasted a few hours, I have seen the hope for our team in you, and I am especially honored to join this team. I believe that under your wise leadership, we will definitely grow stronger and create a brilliant future together!"

Chu Yu smiled and stood up to clink glasses with him. "Thank you for your trust in me. The future of the company also depends on everyone here. I'm not that particular about rules. As long as we're all of one mind and working together, that's fine."

The others immediately started brainstorming. Lin Chuan, this kid, with his thick eyebrows and big eyes, pulled off this stunt. No wonder he studied law; he can write a long essay as soon as he opens his mouth.

None of the people here are the kind of people who want to earn a fixed salary day after day for ten years. They left Shenghong and followed Chu Yu with the idea of ​​making a name for themselves.

Toasting the boss and reading a little essay is nothing; we can't fall behind!

For a moment, toasts were constantly being offered in the private room.

"President Chu, I salute you, thank you..."

"President Chu, I'll drink this first glass of wine as a sign of respect. I believe..."

"President Chu..."

....

Although this so-called flattery of the boss and toasting behavior is considered a bad habit by many people, it is undeniable that in certain situations, it can quickly bring people closer together.

Before all the dishes were served, the atmosphere among the eight people was no longer as awkward as when they first entered the restaurant.

Chu Yu didn't take the opportunity to talk about work, but instead chatted with them about their hobbies in daily life, what they liked to eat and drink, and where they liked to travel.

The relationship between everyone became much closer, but the meal didn't last too long, and we parted ways around 8:30.

The Lin Family Villa.

Zhao Ruoying glanced at her phone, then looked up and said, "Aunt Zhang, in ten minutes, ladle out a bowl of the stomach-soothing soup for Xiaobao and let it cool."

"Yes, madam."

Seeing this, Shi Peilan smiled and said, "No wonder they say that raising a child is a lifelong worry, even if you live to be a hundred. I didn't understand it before, but after having Wenman and Wenchen, I realized what it means to be a mother's life."

"However, not all mothers in the world love their children as much as you do. At home, I always tell Yiming that I envy him for having such a good mother like you."

"He said to me, what are you envious of?! She's your mom too. I said that's right, Mom treats me even better than my own mother. When we go out together, people think we're mother and daughter." As she spoke, she moved closer to Zhao Ruoying, acting as if she were Zhao Ruoying's real daughter.

Lin Yiwan, who was used to seeing Shi Peilan fawning over Zhao Ruoying, didn't take it seriously at all.

He continued speaking to Lin Zhenghong, "Dad, don't underestimate my younger brother just because he's young and hasn't been in the workforce. He has a great presence and excellent judgment. The two he picked out from my department today are the ones I'm planning to groom for future success."

Zhou Jingshan immediately chimed in, "Xiao Wan is right. You look like someone destined for great things. Plus, you're handsome. I heard from Lao Tang that all the beauties in our department were mesmerized when they saw you today. They were all dejected all afternoon because they didn't get to choose you."

Lin Zhenghong didn't respond to that question, but you could tell how happy he was from his smiling eyes. "Don't praise him too much, kids can't handle praise."

"The third child is young and this is his first time starting a business. Although he says he doesn't want the family to take care of him, you older brothers and sisters should lend a hand when necessary."

"Dad, don't worry. As the eldest brother, I would never abandon my younger brother. With me taking care of him, you and Mom will have less to worry about us younger generation," Lin Yiming said.

Lin Yiwan sneered inwardly, thinking, "You better be right." But she said aloud, "Yes, Dad, we're family, so we shouldn't stand on ceremony. He's our own brother, so of course we have to take care of him."

While the group was talking, Chu Yu returned. His face was slightly flushed, but his eyes were clear, so it was clear that he hadn't drunk too much.

"Xiao Bao is back."

"The second young master is back."

"The third brother is back."

"His second uncle is back."

....

"Dad, Mom, brother, sister-in-law, sister, brother-in-law." After greeting everyone, Chu Yu plopped down on the sofa.

Zhao Ruoying took the warm soup that Aunt Zhang brought and handed it to Chu Yu. "Xiao Bao, this soup has monkey head mushroom in it. It's good for your stomach and intestines. It's perfect after drinking alcohol. Drink it while it's hot."

"Thank you, Mom." Chu Yu, who was actually quite full, still obediently accepted the drink and slowly sipped it.

Shi Peilan's eyes darted around, and she said with a smile, "When our third son came in just now, I was stunned. He's so handsome! I wonder which rich girl will end up with such a handsome and outstanding young man!"

"What? Sister-in-law, are you thinking of introducing someone to your younger brother?" Zhou Jingshan said with a smile. "My younger brother is currently focused on his career and probably doesn't have the mind for that. Even if he were to look for someone, he would probably find someone shrewd and capable, someone who can keep up with him in his career."

That damn Zhou Jingshan, is he subtly mocking her?! "Hehe, Jingshan, I don't agree with you. Perhaps I just like gentle and considerate girls. What do you say? What kind do you like?"

Although Chu Yu found the two of them boring, he still said, "I'll most likely find a boyfriend in the future, someone whose temperament matches mine."

Same-sex marriage has been legal for many years, so the Lin family wouldn't have any objections to Chu Yu's plan to find a man.

Zhao Ruoying, this wealthy socialite, was concerned about her son's future and said, "Anything you like is fine. But if the person you find is naturally fertile, that's fine. If not, you'll have to wait five years after getting married before you can apply for IVF, or you can go abroad to do it, there are fewer restrictions..."

Speaking of this, Chu Yu felt that this world was really amazing, as some men in this world were born with the ability to give birth.

Same-sex couples who cannot conceive naturally can apply for reproductive intervention five years after obtaining their marriage certificate. If approved, the child will be born without the need for a third party's sperm or egg, and will be a direct result of the couple's shared bloodline.

It's easy to understand when a woman gets pregnant, but for a man, it's like having an artificial uterus implanted in his body. The baby grows for a few months, is then surgically removed, and then grows in an incubator for ten months.

However, this type of surgery is strictly controlled in China. The surgery can only be performed in designated hospitals in the country, and there are also special legislation and verification departments to prevent anyone from profiting from it to the greatest extent possible.
