Chapter 518 - 337: Having a Baby?
Gina tried to steer the conversation back on track, and Huang Tianxuan skillfully said: "Promote me, I want to hold the position of the head of the R&D department at Hezhi, and you must promise to let me take over Hezhi at the latest within ten years, then I’ll immediately marry Li Peifeng and give you a grandson!"
Did I agree to this?
Li Peifeng silently scoffed but remained silent. After all, as long as the money is there, he has no complaints.
"Xuanxuan, don’t think too much."
Huang Jianzhong frowned deeply, his face truly had a bit of a sect leader’s authority: "Threatening me like this shows you’re not mature enough to be a true manager. If you have the ability, do the projects yourself, show some results and I will naturally promote you. And the most critical thing is... where’s my grandson? Get that sorted and we’ll talk!"
Huang Tianxuan sneered: "Results? You know what results I’ve achieved yourself, how many teams, how many times I’ve completed projects ahead of schedule don’t you know? You’re talking results to me now? What results does my big brother have? If you weren’t supervising him, you know how much loss he’d bring to the group! If you didn’t know, would you be seeking a grandson to inherit your throne from across generations right now?"
Huang Jianzhong said impatiently: "That only shows you’re doing well as a technical person, but truly managing an enterprise is not just about technology!"
"You’re going to keep me stuck in this position with just one word about being a technical person, aren’t you? Back in the day..."
...
In the afternoon, around three o’clock, Brother Ye, the butler, walked in with a cell phone, Huang Jianzhong was called away by a phone call, and the conversation ended.
This parent-introduction-style meeting completely changed in later stages, basically turning into a work debate between father and daughter, while Gina dragged Li Peifeng into discussing literature, and even touched upon novels he created.
This made Mr. Li a bit uncomfortable. After all, talking to a prospective mother-in-law about books like "Devil CEO Falls In Love With Me," "Three Lives Three Worlds All About Xiaosan," is rather inappropriate.
Thankfully, once Huang Jianzhong left, the conversation ended, and Huang Tianxuan led him to choose a guest room.
"How about this room?"
Huang Tianxuan led Li Peifeng to the guest bedroom of the side wing at the Huang Mansion, the courtyard villa was grand, and there were plenty of rooms, so there’s no need to stay at a hotel outside. Not only is the distance from the main house significant, but the environment is quite nice, and it comes with a private bathroom, ensuring privacy.
"It’s great, this one will do."
Li Peifeng looked out at the lake view, nodded in satisfaction, then recalled the conversation between father and daughter and couldn’t help but curiously ask: "I remember many rich people can choose the gender through test tube technology, can’t your dad just have your big brother or younger brother use a test tube instead of having you bear a son and changing the surname?"
Strictly speaking, this behavior is illegal, but if you say it’s done to prevent genetic diseases for the child, then it’s not illegal...
"Test tube technology isn’t mature yet."
Huang Tianxuan pursed her lips and said: "Someone did a follow-up survey on the second-generation test tubes and found that those children had lower IQs compared to naturally born children, despite coming from high-income families. And the newest generation is the third generation which has only emerged over the last twenty years, so any technical defects are currently unseen."
Li Peifeng nodded in understanding: "I see."
Huang Tianxuan added: "Besides, my parents are quite conservative, they won’t choose that route unless absolutely necessary."
"Indeed."
Li Peifeng expressed agreement: "It should be natural competition, not interference, where the strongest and best break through from millions of cells!"
"..."
"Hey, which room are you staying in? You’re not planning to leave me here and go home, are you?"
"..."
Suddenly, Huang Tianxuan sat on the bed, looked up at Li Peifeng, her gaze flickered, making him feel apprehensive.
The two stared at each other in silence for more than ten seconds before Huang Tianxuan couldn’t take it anymore, turned her head to look out the window, and said faintly: "How about we... have a child first?"
