Chapter 329 Especially Reassuring
Su Ming's downfall caused a huge shock in the business world. His company's stock price plummeted, investors withdrew their funds one after another, and business partners quickly distanced themselves from him. The once-glorious Su Ming has now become a "rat crossing the street" that everyone avoids.
Further police investigation revealed more of Su Ming's illegal activities. He was ultimately sentenced to imprisonment and fined hundreds of millions of yuan. To mitigate his sentence, Su Ming had to transfer his shares to Fan Shuiguang as compensation.
After receiving Su Ming's shares, Fan Shuiguang was so excited she could barely speak. She gripped my hand tightly, tears welling in her eyes: "Sister, thank you! I really don't know what I would have done without you and Brother Yichen."
I chuckled and patted her on the shoulder: "Silly girl, this is all thanks to your own hard work. We just helped out a little."
Jiang Yichen also walked over, his tone gentle but with a hint of teasing: "Shuiguang, you've really become 'rich overnight' now. But don't forget to treat us to dinner."
Fan Shuiguang burst into laughter through her tears, nodding repeatedly: "Definitely! I'll not only treat you to a meal, but also everyone who has helped me!"
A few days later, Fan Shuiguang hosted a grand celebration dinner at an upscale restaurant. In addition to Jiang Yichen and me, she also invited Qin Yu, Xiaotiantian's team, and some friends and partners who had supported her in the past.
At the banquet, Fan Shuiguang raised his glass to give a speech, his voice slightly choked: "Today, I stand here with a heart full of gratitude. Thank you to my friends for not abandoning me when I was in my most difficult time; thank you to President Jiang and Gu Mo, without your help I could not have come this far; and thank you to President Qin, your professionalism and decisiveness I admire to the core."
She paused, took a deep breath, and continued, "Today, I not only fulfilled my father's last wish, but also proved my abilities. In the future, I will continue to work hard and live up to everyone's expectations!"
A round of enthusiastic applause erupted throughout the room. Looking at her, I felt both gratified and somewhat moved. The usually resolute CEO Fan had become even stronger.
After the dinner, Jiang Yichen and I sat on the balcony, gazing at the night view in the distance. He gently put his arm around my shoulder and asked tenderly, "Wife, were you happy today?"
I leaned against him and nodded: "I'm happy. Seeing Shuiguang so successful makes me feel especially at ease."
He smiled, lowered his head and gently kissed my forehead: "You're always so considerate of others. But don't forget, we also have our own lives to live."
I looked up at him, a mischievous glint in my eyes: "What, are you jealous?"
He nodded, feigning seriousness: "Yes, I'm jealous. You have to make it up to me."
I couldn't help but laugh and gave him a light punch: "Silly boy."
Since the baby was born, the atmosphere at home has become exceptionally warm and busy. During this time, I've been somewhat anxious because, due to health reasons, my breast milk supply has been decreasing, and eventually, I'll have to stop breastfeeding and feed the baby formula.
That Sunday, sunlight streamed gently through the window onto the crib. The baby squirmed and cried softly, its little mouth opening and closing, clearly hungry. Hearing the crying, Jiang Yichen immediately put down his work and hurried into the room.
"Don't cry, baby, Daddy's here." He said gently, picked up the baby, patted the baby's back, and then carefully placed the baby on the bed to prepare formula.
He picked up the bottle, carefully rinsed it with warm water, and then, following the instructions, poured the formula into the bottle spoonful by spoonful. He gently shook it to dissolve the formula completely. His focused expression suggested he was completing a very important task.
After preparing the formula, Jiang Yichen first put a drop of the formula on the back of his hand to test the temperature. Once he felt it was suitable, he picked up the baby, let the baby rest comfortably in his arm, and brought the bottle to the baby's mouth.
The baby immediately took the nipple into his mouth and began to suck greedily, his little cheeks puffing out. Jiang Yichen looked at the baby, his face full of doting smiles, his eyes filled with endless tenderness.
"Eat slowly, don't rush," he coaxed gently, wiping away the milk that spilled from the baby's mouth with a tissue from time to time.
Watching this scene unfold, my heart was filled with warmth. I never expected that man, once so decisive and efficient in the business world, would be so gentle and patiently caring for the baby!
After the baby finished eating, he let out a satisfied burp, his little eyes half-open and half-closed, seemingly a little sleepy. Jiang Yichen gently patted the baby's back, humming a tuneless lullaby. Before long, the baby drifted off to sleep in his arms.
Jiang Yichen gently placed the baby back in the crib, covered the baby with a small blanket, and then tiptoed out of the room.
He came to my side, put his arm around my shoulder, and whispered, "Well, I've taken such good care of the baby, shouldn't you thank me properly?"
I crossed my arms and said, "What reward do you want?"
"of course......"
He was too shy to say it aloud, but paused and said, "I'll tell you in a while."
I knew it in a heartbeat, so I chased after him and ran around the room twice.
The next day, I continued my live stream. As I demonstrated the last product, a massager specifically for pregnant women, sweat trickled down my spine and into my nightgown. This graphene product, developed by a German team, could precisely apply heat to the pubic symphysis. When I personally demonstrated how to use it, the chat was suddenly flooded with comments like "Sister, you're so hardworking!" The moment the countdown ended, the backend data jumped wildly—single-session sales exceeded one million.
"Sis!" Little Sweetie rushed in, carrying a tablet, her ponytail swinging in a neat arc behind her head. "This is the third month since our transformation! The pregnant women market really has unlimited potential!" Her voice cracked, but I noticed the dark circles under her eyes—this girl had only slept three hours a day for the past three days.
I rubbed my aching lower back; the C-section incision throbbed faintly beneath my silk nightgown.
Memories from three months ago suddenly resurfaced: the incessant alarms from the medical equipment in the delivery room, the bulging veins on the back of Jiang Yichen's hand as he gripped my wrist. But the fire burning in my heart now was even more intense than the ecstasy of becoming a mother for the first time.
The phone vibrated in front of the vanity mirror, and the screen lit up with a message from Fan Shuiguang. It was the first message Fan Shuiguang had sent since the last dinner invitation: "Gu Mo, the Su Ming matter is completely resolved, and I've also gotten back the shares of the last factory my father left behind. I'm thinking of... transforming the factory into a maternity and baby product manufacturing business, and collaborating with you."
I stared at the screen, my heart pounding with excitement. This was a godsend—if I could control my own supply chain, I could truly break free from the limitations of being a live-streaming e-commerce host. Jiang Yichen would be overjoyed if he knew.
