Chapter 26 Success is Like Being Pregnant!
Hao Jian carefully closed the door before saying, "Wife, do you have to be so serious?"
"This is a company, so please address me as President here!"
Shu Ya replied coldly and mercilessly, obviously very angry. This bastard had only been here for a day and had already thrown the company into chaos. If things continued like this, wouldn\'t the company be turned upside down sooner or later?
Hao Jian could tell that Shu Ya was really angry and quickly put on a serious face, "Yes, Madam President."
"So tell me, what exactly happened?" Shu Ya said, fingers interlocked and propped on the desk, staring intently at Hao Jian.
"Men, when they get together, inevitably end up eating and talking big," Hao Jian said, curling his lip, an innocent look on his face. "How was I to know that bootlicker would take it so seriously?"
"It\'s Section Chief Liang!" Shu Ya corrected him.
"Liang Bootlicker."
Shu Ya sighed, realizing she just couldn\'t change this scoundrel!
"Section Chief Liang is like that, his personality is more stringent. After all, he comes from a military background, unlike you, a scoundrel. He\'s someone with discipline and organization."
"Is he not losing things all the same?" Hao Jian said with disdain, curling his lip: "I see, he doesn\'t dare to provoke Old Sun, so he only acts high and mighty in front of us."
If he was really that capable, why didn\'t he dare to stand up to Old Sun?
"Anyway, you better stop provoking him in the future. He\'s from the Special Forces, and I have personally seen him punch through a steel plate. If you get beaten up, I\'m not taking care of you," Shu Ya warned.
"What\'s so great about punching through a steel plate? I can do the iron crotch, hanging bricks from my lower body!" Hao Jian grumbled dissatisfied.
"Pfft."
Shu Ya was so frustrated she almost spit out blood, her face turning red as she glared at Hao Jian, "Just behave yourself from now on."
"Yes, yes, whatever you say, my dear wife," Hao Jian sneaked up behind Shu Ya and began massaging her.
Shu Ya frowned slightly but didn\'t reject the massage, closing her eyes to enjoy it.
"By the way, today I saw a really handsome man enter your office. Who was he?"
Hao Jian couldn\'t help asking. He had just happened to share an elevator with Zhao Ziliang, so he naturally saw Zhao Ziliang going to the top floor.
Apart from the president\'s office, there was nowhere else to go on the top floor, so he must have been there to see Shu Ya.
"An annoying person," Shu Ya said, opening her eyes and speaking irritably.
"Sent by your father?" Hao Jian ventured a question.
Shu Ya turned around in surprise: "How did you know?"
She hadn\'t mentioned Zhao Ziliang to Hao Jian. How did he figure it out?
"Do I even need to ask? Who else could make my beautiful wife so vexed, if not your mysterious father?"
Actually, Hao Jian was just guessing because Shu Ya had never mentioned Zhao Ziliang to him, which meant that Zhao Ziliang, in Shu Ya\'s heart, was an expendable character!
And given her personality, it was impossible for her to be troubled by an expendable character, so there was only one explanation left.
When it came to her father, Shu Ya\'s expression turned somewhat dim, a look she had never shown in front of others, resembling a wounded child.
"Hao Jian, would you like to hear my story?" Shu Ya looked at Hao Jian, and although she was asking, her eyes were filled with hope.
"Yeah, as long as you\'re willing to talk, I\'m willing to listen!" Of course, Hao Jian wasn\'t going to be rude and refuse.
Then, Shu Ya told Hao Jian everything about herself, naturally including her father.
It turned out that Shu Ya\'s mother was a young lady from a wealthy family, and the company she now controlled was left by her mother\'s family.
But because she married the wrong man, she lived the second half of her life in misery.
Shu Ya\'s father was an idle social youth who, at a gathering, met Shu Ya\'s mother and took her by despicable means, forcing his way into the family as a live-in son-in-law.
From that point on began the tragic days for Shu Ya and her mother!
Her father never worked; he was proficient in eating, drinking, gambling, whoring, and smoking. During Shu Ya\'s childhood, what she saw most was her mother\'s tears and her father\'s yelling and beating.
In her eighteenth year, her father took a mistress, which her mother discovered, and afterwards, her mother committed suicide in resentment.
And that wasn\'t the most ridiculous part. The money her father used to support the mistress was actually taken from her mother.
Her mother had provided him with a lavish material life, bore his children, but none of this could awaken a single drop of emotion in him as a husband or father. Instead, he repaid her kindness with cruelty, driving her to suicide!
This had always been a thorn in Shu Ya\'s heart and determined that she would never forgive her father, who was worse than a beast.
Afterwards, her father disappeared with a sum of money and the mistress. He vanished as if he had evaporated from the world, never to be seen again, and never came to see Shu Ya again, as if he never had this daughter.
And Shu Ya didn\'t feel sad. To be able to leave her father\'s side was the most fortunate thing in her life.
But what she didn\'t expect was that her father showed up again not long ago, not merely for money, because he and the mistress had squandered it all. This time, he wasn\'t just after money; he wanted the entire company!
Her father was indeed despicable. He knew that money would always run out, but if he had a money-making tool, it would be different, and the company naturally became his prime target.
That was the reason why Shu Ya was drowning her sorrows in a bar that day!
Because her grandfather had left a will stating that Shu Ya could only gain her inheritance after marriage.
Until then, her shameless father also had inheritance rights, which was why she was so anxious to marry, even to the point of threatening with death.
Because, even if it meant dying, she did not want to hand over her mother\'s hard work to that man.
Looking at the tear-stained cheeks of Shu Ya, Hao Jian\'s heart filled with sympathy, and he spoke with emotion on his face:
"Being a woman is hard, being a successful woman is even harder! Success is like being pregnant; everyone congratulates you, but they don\'t know how many times you\'ve been screwed over!"
Gah!
Shu Ya had thought this jerk was comforting her, but hearing the end, her pretty face suddenly stiffened, then her brows slowly furrowed, a trace of anger quickly gathering, culminating in the words from her pursed lips:
"Get lost!!!"
