Chapter 2057: My Happiness Depends On Her
Just as Xu Jinfei opened his mouth, she interrupted first, “Uncle Xu, I’m younger and more capable than you. It can be said that I’m a stock with potential. If I were an investor, should I invest in you or me? Actually, at your age, many people have already retired and are living leisurely. Therefore, no matter from any angle, I have to make a good investment. Don’t worry, I will definitely give more to your son than you did.”
An Lan’s eyes sparkled with calmness and shrewdness.
Xu Jinfei gritted his teeth and said unwillingly, “Didn’t you hear what he said? He’s willing to be with you purely because you’re rich and you can raise him.”
An Lan looked at him and shook her head, her face filled with pity. It was unknown whether it was because of him or Xu Baohan. “Your son is so handsome, I’m willing to raise him. What’s wrong with that?”
Xu Baohan stepped forward and gently put his arm around her shoulder, his lips curling slightly. “Before we started dating, we were very frank. In this life, my happiness will depend on her.”
Xu Jinfei looked at Xu Baohan and then at An Lan. Suddenly, he smiled, his smile was exceptionally pale.
“Alright, I understand.” He slowly turned around, stepped back and left.
Xu Baohan watched his back as he walked further and further down the corridor.
He had a feeling that this time, Xu Jinfei had given up completely.
“I hope your parents won’t cause any more trouble after this.” An Lan leaned against the door. She was finally relieved, as though a huge weight had been lifted from her heart.
“Mm, I don’t think they will. You’ve already analyzed the difference between you and him. He’s a smart person.” Xu Baohan looked back at her with a smile, “An Lan, aren’t you worried that I’m only with you because I want to ride on your achievements? Sometimes, the relationship between people are quite complicated. There are even many feelings that are more concerned about benefits.”
An Lan raised her head to look at him, her gaze calm and confident, “Mr. Xu, you’re a judge, I’m a lawyer. In court, you’ll always be my boss. Don’t talk about clinging for benefits, it’s normal for a lawyer like me to cling to you. Besides, I know better than anyone that you’re not the kind of person who cares about material things. If that’s the case, as Barrister Song’s disciple, how could you be willing to change careers to become a judge?”
Xu Baohan rubbed the hair of the woman beside him.
In this life, he had once hated fate for giving him such cold and heartless parents, but at this moment, he was very grateful that fate had allowed him to meet someone who understood him.
Near the end of the year, Bingfei Motor Company Limited was investigated by the relevant departments. As more and more problems were implicated, Xu Jinfei had no choice but to shut down the company. After that, he spent a lot of money to settle the matter, the company was no longer able to continue operating. Xu Jinfei finally decided to sell it to another boss at a low price. His dream of becoming a rich and powerful family had completely come to an end.
..
At the end of the year, An Lan and Xu Baohan flew to Switzerland to celebrate the New Year.
On the first day of the New Year, the two of them went skiing up the mountain. It was Xu Baohan’s first time skiing. An Lan taught him, but he had no choice but to complain about his lack of talent in skiing. She had taught him for a long time, but he still kept falling in the snow.
Once, when he was sliding down the slope, he couldn’t stop himself. He rolled down for more than a meter, and half of his leg was stuck in the snow.
An Lan hurriedly rushed over to pull him out. “Are you alright? Did you hurt yourself anywhere?”
“No,” Xu Baohan touched his pocket and said in annoyance, “Oh no, I might have dropped my wallet when I was rolling down.”
“Why did you bring your wallet with you? Didn’t I tell you to put it in the cupboard?” An Lan said snappily.
