An Exclusive love-Chapter 325 - Cook Hard and Make Money
Chapter 325 Cook Hard and Make MoneyOn the way to the hospital, Lin Musheng thought it over and finally decided to call Ah Sha to bring her up to speed on what’s going on.
Ah Sha was about to go to the movie set. But after knowing what Lin Musheng had said, she came to be aware that no wonder Zheng Gege always went wrong these days while she was filming. So this was the case.
“What’s wrong?” Wan Qingsi saw her stood still when she came out, carrying her hand bag.
“I have to see Zheng Gege in hospital,” Ah Sha said while putting her hat and sunglasses on. “I need you to ask for a leave for me.”
Wan Qingsi grabbed her and said, “I’ll go with you.”
When they were about to arrive at the hospital, Ah Sha suddenly came to her senses. “Have you known this already?” she asked Wan Qingsi, looking at her oddly.
“Yes.” Wan Qingsi pinched her cheek and said, “You rarely make any friends, and now that you have one, of course, I will learn all about her.”
Ah Sha stared at him and asked, “but why didn’t you tell me about it?”
“I guess Zheng Gege doesn’t want anyone to know about her things, so she has kept it all from you.”
“She was dignified in her bones.” Ah Sha sighed and said, “but after all she was too miserable. How can one have such a father?”
Wan Qingsi frowned and added, “I don’t want you to be affected by this. That’s why I would want you to know her stuff. In fact, her case is not rare in high society.”
“Not rare?” Ah Sha asked in surprise, “they even abandon their own child?
“Much the same. In some cases, mistresses are in a more tragic situation,” Wan Qingsi said after a reflection. “Many years before, a woman with her child knocked on the door of Hao Yuan’s house. Her parents had gone through a lot of ups and downs together, so no matter how excessively her father indulged himself outside, they had never thought of divorce. Plus, her father was not much of a villain. So they just drove them away. However, Hao Yuan sent someone to sell her to the Philippines, and threw the little boy into the sea just at that night.”
Ah Sha clenched her fist and asked, “didn’t her father know about all these?”
“He knew it later, but so what?” Seeing her depressed look, Wan Qingsi felt so distressed. “Now you must understand why I kept you away from these people when you were little. They live in a world that is too messy.”
Ah Sha looked at him in doubt and said, “you’re a liar. All that you do is simply to make me revolve around you!”
“Oh!” Wan Qingsi chuckled and said. “It’s all for your own good.”
“You are the little girl that I try to protect with my heart and soul since your childhood, and I hope you will be happy and carefree forever. Let me bear all the miseries and sorrows for you…”
When arriving at the hospital, the two saw Zheng Gege sitting in the corridor without emotion. Lin Musheng stood beside her, while a woman was kneeling at her feet. There was a man trying to lift her up and still another girl who was looking at Lin Musheng in admiration.
“It was not proper for you to show up. Stand here and let me check it.” Wan Qingsi asked Ah Sha to hide behind a pillar and walked over to them.
Zheng Gege rose up in surprise at the sight of him, and asked, “President… President Wan, Why are you here?”
“Ah Sha was worried about you.” Wan Qingsi said and then looked at Lin Musheng. “Can’t you even handle such a little thing like this?”
Being sick and tired, Lin Musheng kicked off Li Xiuli and said, “I have said that these men must be held captive. But Zheng Gege didn’t let me do it.”
“You decide to give a kidney to them?” Wan Qingsi cast a glance at Zheng Kefan, who recognized Wan Qingsi at first sight. Now he was trembling grabbing Li Xiuli’s hand.
Zheng Gege shook her head violently and said, “no way, Whether his son died or not had nothing to do with me.”
On hearing this, Li Xiuli’s eyes got red and when she was about to speak, her mouth was covered by Zheng Kefan. Seeing there was another man coming, Zheng Miaomiao’s eyes were almost popping out. She came over to Wan Qingsi and said, “You are my sisters’ boss. I would like to film too. Look at me, I am prettier than her.”
“I don’t want them to interrupt us again. Today let’s talk things out.” Zheng Gege looked at Zheng Kefan with disgust, “My brother can’t bear any operation considering his physical condition. Even if he can, I won’t approve of it. You’d better give up this thought and may spend some time to buy a piece of land for your son!”
“Ah!! You bitchy little girl, I will strangle you.” Li Xiuli cried, rushing towards her. At this moment, Lin Musheng kicked off her and Zheng Kefan against the wall, “You hear this? Don’t let me see you again or you would have to prepare more than a piece of land for a grave for your son.”
When Zheng Miaomiao stepped forward to say something, Lin Musheng’s man pulled out his gun to point at her.
“I will have her head broken if she moves,” Lin Musheng said indifferently. Consequently, Zheng Miaomiao dared not to move. However, she doubted that it could be a real gun. Just when she attempted to speak, she heard a gunshot, and a bullet, grazing her ear, was shot into the wall in front of her.
“Ah… Ah…!” Zheng Miaomiao screamed harshly and then began to piss her pants over.
“Ew.” Lin Musheng covered his nose and pulled Zheng Gege into the ward.
Zheng Kefan was totally scared this time for he knew that Lin Musheng dared to shoot. So he held Li Xiuli in one arm and the unconscious Zheng Miaomiao in another, trying to leave.
“Your son’s life and your company, which one is more important? You’d better figure it out.” Wan Qingsi said suddenly, “A single snap of a finger by Xin Enterprises would make your ad company out of sight from the S City.”
Zheng Kefan nodded his head awkwardly and stumbled away. Ah Sha didn’t show up until he walked into the elevator, and she said, “what a family, shameless.”
Walking in the ward, Ah Sha gave a stare at Zheng Gege and complained, “You have kept such a big matter a secret from me.”
“Ah Sha…” Zheng Gege didn’t know what to say.
“Well, stop saying.” Ah Sha interrupted her and continued, “I’m here to see the little brother.”
Zheng Ze was awake, leaning on the bed and looking at Ah Sha uneasily, even shyly.
“How pretty!” Ah Sha patted Zheng Ze’s head and remarked, “Just as your sister!”
Wan Qingsi drew back her hand and frowned. “Do not rest your hand on any other men.”
“He is just a kid!” Ah Sha wide opened her eyes and exclaimed, “he is only thirteen!”
Zheng Ze stammered, “I… I’m not a child anymore, and I… I won’t be a burden for my sister.”
“Nonsense!” Zheng Gege held his hand and added, “you’re too weak now. Only half a year later, you will take the operation and when you recover, you can do whatever you want. Don’t you like painting? By then I will send you off to school.”
Zheng Ze looked at Lin Musheng discreetly. It was this man before him who said that he would arrange the operation for him, and pay for it. He also said there was nothing to worry about and he would help him and his sister.
“Mr. Lin, when I get well, will pay you back. My sister… She…”
Ah Sha burst into laughter, “You little kid, what do you think? We are friends, and we will help your sister whole-heartedly. We won’t hurt her, don’t worry!”
But Zheng Ze didn’t stop staring at Lin Musheng. He had no idea why he did so. He just sensed that this man didn’t come for her sister for no reason.
“All you need do is to recuperate and wait for the operation. It would be no use for you to worry about the rest,” Lin Musheng said bluntly, and what he got in return was a contemptuous look from Ah Sha.
The next day when Ah Sha finished her work, she told Zheng Gege that she would take her to a place.
Lin Musheng was waiting inside his car and when they got on the car he teased Ah Sha, “haven’t you brought your honey today?”
“He was in a meeting!” Ah Sha fastened her belt and said, “let’s go.”
Zheng Gege had asked many times where to go all the way down but failed. And later she gave up, thinking that they would not go so far as to sell her.
The car took them into a quiet street behind a business district where there were many stores specializing in hand-made crafts with Chinese features. Though located in the bustling downtown, it was quite a different place. Lin Musheng just pull the car up in front of a quadrangle courtyard with green tiles and red walls.
“This place is on sale. Expensive as it is, it definitely will appreciate in value.” Lin Musheng pushed open the antique gate and continued, “the yard is so big that it covers over 300 square meters and the house on the four directions occupies an area of over 800 square meters.”
He led the two walked through the cloister and said, “there was a two-storey building in the backyard. One can move in it after decoration.
“I’ve never thought of such a place in the downtown.” Zhengzhou Gege exclaimed, “It’s beautiful.”
The tiles of quartzite, the Virginia creepers and the antique building, seemingly brought her into space travel.
“Do you like it?” Ah Sha asked her.
Zheng Gege nodded her head and replied, “what is it for?”
Lin Musheng glanced at her and said, “to open a private restaurant for you.”
Zheng Gege stared at him, frozen. Ah Sha pushed her and added, “yes, you hear it. We put money to invest and you, you can put your skill. We can equally share the. profit.
“No… Impossible…” She raised her voice suddenly, “You don’t have to do this!”
“You promised me to cook for me.” Lin Musheng coldly, “you are a good cook. I just feel it would be a big waste that you only cook for me. We can make money out of it.”
… Ah Sha added with a nod, “Right, don’t refuse it. The decoration would be completed by the time the filming finishes, and the restaurant will be opened the next year!”
“Impossible… Impossible…” Zheng Gege murmured as if she got bewitched.
Lin Musheng held her shoulders and asked, “Do you regret it? Do you want to stay as a star?”
“No, I don’t want to be a star anymore. I want to be a cook,” Zheng Gege exclaimed. “I just don’t know how to pay you back for your help.”
Ah Sha smiled and said, “cook hard and make money and give me returns at the end of the year.”
Zheng Gege nodded while her eyes turned red. She looked at Lin Musheng again, but the man felt so awkward and looked away.
“Heh, well, let’s go and eat!”
Lin Musheng came to professional designers and gave all the works to them. Zheng Gege just took a look at the design drawing, but she couldn’t understand it. In the ensuing days, she was busy filming because of the New Year movie season.
Wan Qingsi would come to the Ying family after work as usual and then bring supper to Ah Sha. The rumors about Ah Sha’s being abandoned spread for some time, but she seemed to not be affected by this at all. They were also spotted dining together and arms around each other by reporters. Then people began to say that Wan Qingsi wanted to hold her.
“Aunt Monica, read the newspaper. It discussed brother Xunxun and me again!” Ying Xin complaint sitting in Monica’s office again, “Every few days, they would bring it up. Aren’t they feel tired?”
Concealing her sarcastic look, Monica comforted her and said, “No matter who he plays with, the one who marries to him was the daughter of the Ying family. There is no need to be angry.” She handed a stack of documents over to Ying Xin and continued, “here, they are about the programs which will start soon and also about the key investment of the Xin Enterprises next year. Have a look!”
“Which means I can also be involved in?” Ying Xin asked and took it over in surprise,
