Chapter 397 Family affection loses to interests
Chapter 397 Family affection loses to interests
The man in front of him, called "father", was a completely selfish person. In his eyes, family affection and blood had to give way to interests and face, and even his own son was no exception.
Bai Xinwen turned her head away from Bai Chengyuan and said coldly, "Dad, I know what you mean. But I have already transferred the shares to Aze. There is no room for maneuver in this matter, and you don't have to worry about it anymore."
For many things, only by seeing through them but not speaking them out can we maintain superficial peace.
Bai Chengyuan didn't expect that Bai Xinwen would speak out what she was thinking without any hesitation. This feeling was no different from being slapped in the face by a junior in public.
The feeling of shame and anger came over him, making Bai Chengyuan's already ugly face turn blue in an instant, veins on his forehead bulged, and his temples throbbed.
Bai Xinwen, how dare she disobey? ! !
Bai Chengyuan felt that his sacred and inviolable patriarchal authority was challenged at this moment. He was so angry that he didn't care about anything else and raised his hand to slap Bai Xinwen in the face.
"You rebellious girl..."
In Bai Xinwen's life creed, she never sticks her face out for anyone to slap her in the face, even if it's her own father.
When Bai Chengyuan was about to slap her, Bai Xinwen took decisive action and grabbed Bai Chengyuan's wrist. She looked directly at Bai Chengyuan with her beautiful eyes and said coldly, "Dad, please stop. Don't ruin the last bit of our father-daughter relationship."
"You..." Bai Chengyuan pointed his trembling finger at Bai Xinwen's face and shouted angrily, "Is this the attitude of your own father? Bai Xinwen, do you still have me as your father in your eyes?"
Listening to Bai Chengyuan's words, Bai Xinwen sneered, "Haha... Just because I don't tell you a lot of things doesn't mean I don't know. You teamed up with outsiders to squeeze me out of the company, and after the Xu family fell, you tried to trick me into returning to the company to clean up the mess for you. You also wanted to use me to get in touch with those criminals abroad."
Bai Xinwen stared at Bai Chengyuan's livid face. All the disappointment she had accumulated over the years burst out at this moment. "Dad, I want to ask you, do you treat me as your daughter?"
As Bai Xinwen continued to accuse him, the anger in Bai Chengyuan's eyes gradually died down, and he rarely showed any trace of guilt and uneasiness.
This is my first child, how can I not feel sorry for him?
When Bai Xinwen was just born, Bai Chengyuan loved her sincerely when he saw the soft and fair little girl. Later, when he heard the well-behaved little girl call him "Dad", Bai Chengyuan was also moved and wanted to make her the happiest and happiest girl in the world.
But... when the cute little boy grew up and began to show extraordinary business talent, and was then noticed by the old man and taken to his side to teach, Bai Chengyuan's fatherly love was no longer pure.
From then on, Mr. Bai only had eyes for this talented granddaughter who was as capable and courageous as a man. Compared with Bai Xinwen, Bai Chengyuan, who was originally planned to be trained as the heir, seemed even more mediocre and incompetent.
As Mr. Bai's trust and love for Bai Xinwen increased year by year, Bai Chengyuan was left with only fear and caution towards his daughter.
She was afraid that she was valued by the old man, and was on guard against the old man directly bypassing her and letting Bai Xinwen take over Bai's International.
In the end, family affection was defeated by interests!
Bai Xinwen and Bai Chengyuan parted on bad terms. Afterwards, Bai Xincha and Kong Lingxue also came to see Bai Xinwen one after another, but they were both directly refused by Bai Xinwen on the grounds that "we need to have a honeymoon after marriage and live in our own world."
In this way, Lin Yuze successfully obtained 5% of Bai International's original shares.
Although it cannot compare with Bai Chengyuan's 55% and Kong Lingxue's 20%, at least he can enter Bai International openly and have the opportunity to take the stage.

In a quiet manor villa, Qin Zai Yan, who had a rare late sleep, followed the sound all the way to the kitchen. He leaned on the door frame and watched Bai Xinwen clumsily learning to cook at the stove, with a doting smile in his eyes and eyebrows.
Bai Xinwen held a spatula in one hand and a piece of chicken that had been cut into pieces and blanched in the other. She stared at the oil in the pan intently, muttering to herself, "Heat the oil until it's 80% done... What does 80% done mean?"
Looking at his lover who was rarely confused, Qin Zai Yan put his fist to his lips, trying not to laugh out loud.
Who would have thought that at the negotiation table, Bai Xinwen, who didn't even blink an eye when faced with an investment case worth tens of millions, would be stumped by a kitchen.
Sure enough, no matter how outstanding a person is, there are always things he or she is not good at.
Black smoke was already coming out of the wok, but the chef was still worrying about the "80% cooked oil". If the fire was not turned off, it would probably burn.
Qin Zai Yan held back his smile and walked forward, took the spatula and plate from Bai Xinwen's hand, then skillfully turned off the fire, poured out the burnt oil, scrubbed the pot, refilled it with oil, and prepared to stir-fry the chicken nuggets.
Ever since Qin Zai Yan appeared, Bai Xinwen obediently retreated behind him, looking at the man with admiration as he juggled a pile of pots and pans with ease, without any trace of her usual domineering female boss look.
Sure enough, men who can cook are shining!
Before restarting the fire, Qin Zaiyan looked back at Bai Xinwen and said lovingly, "Xinxin, there's a lot of smoke here. Go sit on the sofa for a while. I'll cook. It'll be ready soon."
Seeing the smile on Qin Zaiyan's face, Bai Xinwen pursed her lips shyly and said hesitantly, "How about... let me do it. I've already checked the strategy."
Bai Xinwen's words clearly lacked confidence.
Ever since they met, Qin Zai Yan has been cooking for her. Today, on the second day of their wedding, Bai Xinwen got up early and planned to cook a meal for her lover.
However, Zhuge Bai, the number one woman in the business world, can hold a pen and negotiate projects, but she can't hold a spatula.
Qin Zaiyan glanced at the burnt black mess in the trash can, and couldn't see the raw materials. He jokingly said, "The kitchen is not Mr. Bai's home ground. Let me cook."
Hearing the sarcasm in Qin Zaiyan's words, Bai Xinwen stomped her feet in anger and punched Qin Zaiyan's hard chest muscles.
Qin Zaiyan, who was hit by his wife, took Bai Xinwen's delicate hand and kissed it, "I said the wrong thing. I can't bear to see Mr. Bai holding a spatula with his hands that hold a pen, and I can't bear to see my wife tired."
Bai Xinwen was easy to coax, and she still looked like a proud queen. "Well, since you are so sincere, I will give you the chance to be the chef."
Qin Zai Yan loved Bai Xinwen's proud and domineering queen style so much that he couldn't help but kiss her beautiful lips again.
Qin Zaiyan successfully obtained the right to use the kitchen, but Bai Xinwen did not go to rest, "Do you need my help?"
Qin Zaiyan turned around and looked at his lover who rarely showed his feminine appearance. He handed her a garlic and said, "Peel two slices of garlic and put them in the chicken to enhance the flavor when it comes out of the pot."
