Becoming a Billionaire after Divorce-Chapter 691 - 253: Yang Mi Is Hounded by Paparazzi and Sends a Distress Message

Chapter 691: Chapter 253: Yang Mi Is Hounded by Paparazzi and Sends a Distress Message

Wu Xiaojun stayed home for a few days to recover.

The family was harmonious and joyful.

Then Sun Dasheng sent him away under the pretext of ’training’.

The initial destination was the distant South China Sea, Hainan.

That wasn’t the final destination; eventually, he was to be sent abroad, to the beautiful Great Africa.

That’s where men can truly make a mark.

As for how to persuade the family?

That’s not something Sun Dasheng needed to worry about; Wu Xiaoli was already on the same page as him.

She was concerned that her brother might revert to his old habits soon after coming out.

Ultimately, her husband’s arrangement was for the good of her brother.

Mrs Wu’s task would be handled by her daughter.

Although Mrs Wu was hesitant, she ultimately agreed.

Because her daughter Wu Xiaoli said: Her good son-in-law had already arranged a company for her son there, where he would undergo grassroots training for a few years, and eventually manage the company, and she wouldn’t even need to worry about finding a wife for him, as they would quietly arrange several excellent newly graduated female college students to work with him and gradually develop feelings through work.

"This is good, this is good." Mrs Wu was very satisfied with the son-in-law’s arrangement.

In terms of concern, her son’s future marriage naturally was the top priority.

To ensure that her son finds a pure, desirable girl to marry, she was willing for him to endure some hardship.

"Mom, rest assured, Xiao Jun’s outing this time is thanks to Dasheng’s silent efforts. We hadn’t heard a whisper of this before, because he wanted to set it up well before letting us know. He is truly filial."

Wu Xiaoli fervently praised her husband in front of her mother.

Mrs Wu nodded approvingly: "You, oh, are lucky, marrying such a good man later."

Mrs Wu was pleased with her daughter’s second marriage.

However, she seemed to have thought of something and secretly glanced into the living room. Not seeing Sun Dasheng, she whispered into her daughter’s ear: "You should hurry and have a son."

"Mom, what are you talking about?" Despite being a mother, Wu Xiaoli was still as shy as a young girl.

Discussing those matters between men and women in front of her own mother, she was very embarrassed.

Seeing this, Mrs Wu laughed and patted her hand: "Girlie, you haven’t changed a bit over these years, still like when you were a student."

"But you’re a mother now, why be evasive about such matters?"

"I’m talking about serious things. You need to have a son. For us women, having a son gives us status at home."

Though Mrs Wu was cheerful.

She still had ingrained traditional views.

The bias towards boys over girls was quite severe in her generation.

In rural areas, more strong male laborers meant being able to survive in turbulent times.

This was the survival philosophy of farmers.

However, modern society is evidently different.

Especially with advances in technology, many tasks previously done only by men can now be done by women, so the bias towards boys is no longer a mainstream thought.

Moreover, with rising bridal dowry prices and little punishment for bridal dowry scams, many families are now proud of having daughters.

Mrs Wu was aware of these phenomena, but it was difficult for her to change her deeply rooted views all at once.

Wu Xiaoli couldn’t argue with her mother and could only nod silently.

"Alright, mom."

"There you go, later on, you will gain status through your son. Rest assured, mom wouldn’t harm you." Mrs Wu chuckled as she left the room.

Leaving her daughter in thought.

...

Recently, Sun Dasheng had noticed Wu Xiaoli acting strangely.

Every night, at the crucial moment, she would secretly remove her protection.

Claiming it was bothersome and uncomfortable.

"Is there something you’re hiding from me?" Sun Dasheng immediately noticed the secret in her eyes.

This woman, who had been with him the longest, couldn’t hide things in her heart.

On the surface, she was an alluring woman.

But in reality, she was as innocent as an unmarried girl.

"No... no problem." Wu Xiaoli’s eyes were evasive.

Sun Dasheng grabbed her hand and kneaded it tightly, asking fiercely: "Confess for leniency, resist for severity." 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺

"Ah, you’re hurting me." Wu Xiaoli shouted in pain.

Sun Dasheng wouldn’t fall for her trick.

He held her hand tightly, and finally, Wu Xiaoli confessed and recounted her conversation with her mother in detail.

"Oh, just that?" Sun Dasheng released her hand and rubbed it, "Just tell me what’s up."

"You’re not angry?" Wu Xiaoli looked at him.

"Why would I be angry?" Sun Dasheng looked puzzled, "That’s absurd."

"Is this such an earth-shattering matter?"

"Huh?" Wu Xiaoli realized she had been fighting with herself these past few days, assuming he would be unhappy if she told him.

"Sorry." Wu Xiaoli bowed her head in apology.

Sun Dasheng seized the moment and pulled her into his arms, "No need to apologize, just tell me directly if you have thoughts. If you don’t, how will I know what you’re thinking?"

"If you don’t speak up, how will you know if I’d be upset, right?"

"Hmm." Wu Xiaoli rested her head on his shoulder: "Actually, I didn’t want you to feel coerced."

Oh, so that’s how it is.
