Scheming

At [-] o'clock in the morning, on the flight from New York to Shanghai, all the passengers had fallen asleep, but Bao Ze was sober.

Eighteen hours ago, Bao Ze was discussing the work plan for the next quarter with his partners when the phone rang, and a young man said from the other side of the ocean: "Mr. Bao, I am Chen Duansheng, the assistant to President Bao. Doctor rescue, has been transferred to the ICU, the condition is critical, please go home to take charge of the overall situation."

At that moment, Bao Ze was at a loss for a moment. In his impression, his father had always had a regular schedule and was in good health. How could he suddenly get sick? Immediately after the information was processed by the brain, Bao Ze came to his senses, and his heart sank to the bottom.He hung up the phone and immediately ordered his secretary to book a return ticket.

The journey was tiring, but Bowser couldn't sleep.

Bao's mother died early, and Bao's father was afraid that his stepmother's introduction would be unfavorable to his son, so he remained widowed and never reunited. As the only son, Bao Ze had always had a good relationship with his father, but unfortunately, when he graduated from university, Bao Ze's sexuality was exposed and he had to come out of the closet , Father Bao couldn't accept it, and the father and son had a big fight.The two are of the same blood, they are generally as stubborn as cattle, and they do not give in to each other. Bao Ze was young and energetic, and left in a huff. The next day, he went to the country and left his hometown. There was no communication between father and son. Unexpectedly, once the news was believed, it turned out to be such a bad news.

A few hours later, when the plane landed, Bao Ze went to the exit, and saw a tall and handsome young man coming up to him.

"Mr. Bao, I'll take you to the hospital. The car is outside."

"Assistant Chen?"

"Yes, you can call me Duansheng."

The car is the Bentley that Mr. Bao used to use. The driver, Uncle Li, is also an old employee who has served the Bao family for many years. When he saw Bao Ze, he couldn't help being emotional, "Ah Ze, you can count it back."

Bao Ze couldn't help his nose sore, "Uncle Li, how is my dad doing?"

Uncle Li wiped away his tears and started the car, "Mr. Bao's condition has just stabilized, but he is still in a coma. The doctor said that we need to observe."

Bao Ze couldn't help asking, "Dad always pays attention to maintenance, why did he suddenly get sick?"

Uncle Li sighed, "I wasn't with Mr. Bao that day, Xiao Chen knew the details, so I asked him to tell you."

Duansheng responded to Bao Ze's attention and explained in detail, "The Bao Group is a family business. Except for the shares held by Mr. Bao and Mr. Bao, another 40.00% is scattered in the hands of the uncles of the Bao family. Therefore, factional struggles within the group have always been constant. However, everyone is afraid of Mr. Bao’s majesty, and dare not go too far. The daily operation of the group is still stable. It’s just that Mr. Bao is getting older in recent years, and his energy is not as good as before, and Mr. Bao has not come back to take over the business. They all want their own children to hold important positions in the group. However, Mr. Bao is not optimistic about the abilities of the nephews and young masters. After hesitating for a long time, he decided to list the company and hire professional managers at the same time, so as to get rid of the ills of the family business. As soon as the news came out, people were in turmoil. , Several Bao managers had their own thoughts and kept acting in private, and incidents such as product quality and embezzlement of public funds were exposed one after another. Mr. Bao was furious and dismissed Ms. Cai as the financial director, and hired an accounting firm from outside to audit the branches and The financial situation of the subsidiary. Three days ago, the financial manager of Hongda Company, a subsidiary of the group, refused to pay the accounts and had a conflict with the staff of the accounting firm, causing one person to be injured. , Boss Bao collapsed in a fit of rage, and told me to call you home before he fell into a coma."

Ms. Cai is the third aunt of Bao Ze, and Bao Qiren, the general manager of Hongda, is the second uncle of Bao Ze.

Bao Ze remembered that his mother said, "Don't use money to test family affection". At that time, he was still young and didn't understand what it meant. Thinking about it now, it couldn't be more correct.

Bao Ze sneered.

An hour later, the car drove into the hospital.

Bao Ze asked in surprise, "Why do you live here? I remember that the Department of Neurology at the Affiliated Hospital of Fudan University is the best."

Duansheng said: "Mr. Bao, don't worry, this hospital has Mr. Bao's private investment, and the medical environment and facilities are the best in the city. Several top neurology experts in this city work part-time here."

Bao Ze nodded, "You have arranged it properly."

The two went directly to the ICU ward. Professor Fang, the attending doctor, had received a call from Chen Duansheng. He waited outside the ward door, saw Bao Ze, and said, "But Mr. Bao? Boss Bao has just undergone thrombolytic therapy. At present, all signs tend to be Stable, but needs to be observed in the ICU for a few days."

This Professor Fang has superb medical skills, and he is dedicated to the hospital's shareholders. He explained the condition and treatment plan in detail. Bao Ze felt at ease, and then asked, "When will my father wake up?"

Professor Fang paused, hesitated and said: "President Bao's condition is critical, and the treatment is not optimistic. Even if he is getting better now, there is no guarantee that there will be an emergency, and he has been in a coma for too long. When will he wake up, and can he even wake up?" , are all unknown, and family members are asked to be mentally prepared.”

Through the narrow window, Bao Ze saw his father covered in equipment in the ward, his eyes were wet from grief, "May I go in and have a look?"

Professor Fang politely declined, "It's better to transfer to the general ward in two days and come to visit again."

Duan Sheng also persuaded, "Mr. Bao has someone to take care of him here. Mr. Bao doesn't have to worry. You are exhausted from the journey. You might as well go home and rest first. There are still many things that need to be taken care of by the group."

Bao Ze knew in his heart that he was not a doctor, and staying here would not help the matter. What he needed to do was to stabilize the overall situation and ensure the stable listing of the group, so as to comfort his father.

In an instant, Bao Ze had some calculations in his mind, thanked the doctor, and turned to leave.

In the early morning of the next day, Chen Duansheng came to Bao's mansion to accompany Bao Ze to work.

In the car, Duansheng took out a folder, which contained the group's balance sheet and brief introductions of the persons in charge of each major position.

Bao Ze's major is corporate management, and he has been engaged in venture capital for more than ten years. He is not an amateur. He already has a general understanding of the group's situation at a glance, and he couldn't help secretly praising this assistant for his meticulous work.

Bao Ze looked up at Duansheng, who was in the co-pilot seat, and couldn't help asking, "When did Duansheng join the group? When I went abroad, the assistant to the chairman was Wang Wenyuan. Why didn't I see him this time?"

Chen Duansheng replied, "Ten years ago, I graduated from university and joined the group. I first worked in the front-line quality department, and then I was transferred to the headquarters to assist Wang Tezhu. Three years ago, Wang Tezhu retired early due to illness, and the chairman ordered me to take over Yiying. business."

It turned out that Assistant Chen had a baby face, but he was two years younger than himself, yet he looked like a fledgling college student.Bao Ze secretly sighed that he lost his eyes, and couldn't help laughing.

Soon, the car arrived at the headquarters building of the group, and the two took the elevator from the parking lot to the floor of the chairman's office. As soon as they got out of the elevator, they saw a young girl rushing towards Chen Duansheng anxiously.

"Tezhu Chen, several Mr. Bao gathered in the meeting room and confronted the managers of the executive department and the financial department, demanding that the financial audit and listing procedures be suspended. Mr. Liu and the others are overwhelmed, so come to the rescue."

Duansheng frowned and said angrily, "How could they do this."

At this time, Bao Ze said softly: "Why not, while my dad is in a coma, he just took the opportunity to make trouble. The more chaotic the situation, the better it is to fish in troubled waters."

Bao Ze is used to seeing the turbulent capital market and rich families scrambling for power and profit, so he wasn't surprised. He just smiled and said, "Let's go and meet my uncles."

Duansheng quickly calmed down and ordered one by one, "Li Yue, immediately notify the security team to send ten security guards up, and then go to the financial department and tell the staff to lock the doors and windows. Unauthorized entry." Then he stood in front of Bao Ze like a guard.

Miss Li immediately took orders and left.

Bao Ze didn't expect Assistant Chen to be so meticulous and loyal at such a young age, and he couldn't help admiring his father's vision in selecting and employing people.

The two walked into the meeting room, and they heard the noise in the room through the door. Duansheng was about to push the door, but Bao Ze gently pressed him down, "No hurry, listen to what they have to say."

Seeing Bao Ze calm and relaxed, Duan Sheng was inexplicably relieved.

I only heard someone in the room say:

"This is the Bao family enterprise. We brothers can discuss it. It's not up to you outsiders to point fingers."

"IPO is a decision made by Mr. Bao before he fell ill. Once the plan has started, how can we just stop it? Although our surname is not Bao, we are hired by the chairman and we are responsible for the company. Mr. Bao Er said Liu I disagree."

"You also know that my elder brother is ill now. Since he is ill and there is no one in charge, the listing will naturally be suspended. Otherwise, if something goes wrong, who will bear the responsibility."

"Second brother is right. Not only must the listing be suspended, but the accountants must also leave immediately. Now the people in the group are panicking. After checking and checking, there will be more rumors and gossip, which will really affect the unity and stability."

"Second elder brother is in order, the eldest brother is not here, so naturally the second elder brother is in charge. You guys are obedient and hand over the head office seal immediately, or you will be fired immediately."

"Although Boss Bao fell ill, there is still Mr. Bao. It's your turn to decide what to do. We are hired by the group, and it's not something you can do just by saying it."

"What a joke. My eldest nephew is far away in the United States. Where will he come back in a while? Even if he comes back, he still needs to listen to us elders."

Hearing this was enough, Bao Ze opened the door and went in, greeted everyone with a smile, "What a coincidence, there are so many people here, second uncle, third uncle, third aunt and fourth aunt, long time no see."

The room fell silent for an instant, and everyone was dumbfounded.

Bao Ze sat down at the chairman of the conference table and looked at everyone's faces one by one.

Standing behind him, Duansheng was surprised to find several Mr. Bao dodging and cowering under Bao Ze's gaze, and immediately realized that they were afraid of him, so they couldn't help secretly amazed.

The happiest people at this moment are Mr. Liu and Mr. Yu, who immediately came forward to say hello, "When will Mr. Bao come back? Mr. Bao gave orders before his illness, but if there is an accident, the company will hand it over to Mr. Bao as soon as the company responds. The signature shall prevail."

Bao Ze nodded to the two veterans, "You two uncles, please put the pending documents in the chairman's office. From today until my father recovers, I will temporarily work there and take charge of the group affairs in place of my father. As for this, I will entertain you." Just a few elders."

The two veterans left with a sigh of relief.

"Aze didn't develop very well in the United States, why did he come back suddenly?"

Uncle Bao took the lead in asking questions.

Bao Ze said, "Father is sick, I should come back to fulfill my filial piety."

Uncle Bao said: "Ah Ze, you have never been in touch with the affairs of the group, so you don't know how to do it, why don't you leave it to us, and you can just worry about developing your own business."

"The job in the United States is on the right track, just leave it to the partners to take care of it. The Bao Group is the foundation. I am also the boss, so naturally I should come back to take over. As for the inside ways..." Bao Ze smiled lightly, "Two Uncle, have you forgotten that I started to participate in the management of the group when I was in college, although I have become a little unfamiliar in the past few years, I don’t know anything about it. Besides, this is a foundation jointly built by my parents, how can I just ignore it in this extraordinary time.”

"Ah Ze, we are all one family, we don't talk about each other. We are also shareholders, and the group's major planning should seek our opinions. Since the development of the group, the interests of many parties are involved, and some transactions and whereabouts of funds are not easy to get on the table. It said. Your father insisted on going his own way, and it was going public, and it was also a financial audit. I don’t know how many old accounts were pulled out, which made the old courtiers feel turbulent. Aze, it’s good if you come back. Let’s take a long-term plan. In order to stabilize the situation, it is better to first Stop checking the accounts, maintain the status quo, and wait for your father to recover, then we can re-discuss the listing plan, how about it?"

The third aunt is worthy of walking in the workplace for many years, and she speaks very beautifully on the scene.

Bao Ze knew it well and shook his head, "There is no need to wait for Dad to recover before making a decision. I have 30% of the shares left by my mother. During my father's illness, I will take his 25% of the shares. I don't need to ask for your opinions on the group's listing plan. I have made a decision. Keep pushing."

Several Bao parents and seniors looked at each other, Bao Sigu couldn't hold back, and begged: "Ah Ze, you insist on going public, I won't stop you, but why do you need the police to intervene, for Si Gu's sake, let my husband go, no matter what. Whether it is financial handover or verification, our family members are easy to discuss."

Bao Ze was stunned. At this moment, Duansheng bent down and whispered in his ear: "The financial manager of Hongda is Ms. Bao's third husband. He has been detained by the police for assaulting the staff of the accounting firm."

Oh, another corner-digging moth.Bao Ze realized and laughed angrily, "I just came back from the United States, and I have no way to interfere with the criminal case. Instead of begging me, the fourth aunt should hire a good lawyer. I believe the police will enforce the law impartially. If I can't afford the lawyer's fee, I can As for the account verification and handover, there must be other financial personnel of Fontaial who are willing to cooperate. Of course, if necessary, the group can also ask the police economic investigation department for help. How about asking uncles and aunts to cooperate now, and I will handle it according to the circumstances, and leave room for each other?"

The elders of the Bao family knew that the situation was over, and everyone looked ashen.

Bao Ze was impatient to deal with these relatives, and left in a huff after finishing his speech.

Duansheng hurriedly followed, and before leaving, he only heard Uncle Bao complaining, "Ah Ze has a temper like a sister-in-law, he doesn't recognize his relatives, he doesn't let him in, what should we do?"

The third aunt replied, "I told you not to go too far, look, to provoke this great god back, without losing face at all, it's better for elder brother to be in charge, at least he will let us have a little time."

Fourth Aunt Bao sobbed, "Didn't Ah Ze quarrel with his eldest brother and refused to go home for more than ten years, who would have thought that he would come back."

Duansheng went out, and said to the security guards who rushed over: "It's all right, just leave the two of you to send a few Mr. and Mrs. Bao out, and the rest please go back to your respective jobs."

Bao Ze didn't leave, he stood aside, quietly watching Duansheng's command and dispatch.For some reason, Duansheng felt a little nervous, "Does Mr. Bao think I'm making a fuss out of a molehill?"

Bao Ze shook his head, "It's an extraordinary time, be careful, you've done a good job."

Oh, Duansheng let out a sigh of relief.

The two walked into the chairman's office, and Bao Ze immediately issued orders, "Give me a summary of the group's revenue in the last three years, as well as the production plan and product layout for the next year, and notify the department heads. A meeting will be held at [-]:[-] am tomorrow. I need Familiar with senior management personnel, grasp the operation of the group as soon as possible.”

Until now, Duansheng finally understood why Mr. Bao insisted on calling his son back. He was clear-cut, fearless in the face of danger, and instantly in control of the overall situation.

In an instant, Duansheng felt admiration and was full of energy, "I'll make the arrangements."

In the next few days, both Bao Ze and Duan Sheng were busy non-stop, but the effect was obvious. From top to bottom, the group knew that the real prince returned to China to take over. Live in people's hearts.

The uncles and aunts of the Bao family didn't dare to provoke again, and finally handed over the financial rights of several branch companies. Although it was a mess, it was better than the internal strife and factions in the group. Everyone in the management team breathed a sigh of relief.

After he figured it out, Bao Ze had already lived and boarded in the company for a whole week, accompanied by Duan Sheng 24 hours a day, in addition to his official assistant, he also served as a private secretary, taking care of meals and changing clothes.

Bao Ze couldn't help asking: "Duansheng, how much is your salary?"

Duan Sheng didn't understand what he meant, "The annual salary is 30 yuan, and there are bonuses at the end of the year."

Bao Ze was surprised that with such ability and quality, in the United States, he was willing to pay 30 US dollars.

"My dad also oppressed you like this when he was in power?"

Duansheng laughed, "Mr. Bao, what are you talking about? Mr. Bao has always been sympathetic to us, but it's just a very difficult time. He always wants to help you through this period. When everything is on the right track, naturally you don't have to be so busy."

With such a kind personality, Bao Ze couldn't help but feel good about him.

"When the old man recovers, I will definitely ask him to come over and be his personal assistant. The annual salary will be doubled."

Duansheng was embarrassed by the praise and smiled subtly, but his bright eyes betrayed his inner joy.

Bao Ze seldom saw such a gentle and charming person of the same sex, his heartstrings twitched and he let out a buzzing sound.

At this time, the cell phone rang, and Duansheng answered it. After a while, he widened his eyes excitedly and let out a cry of surprise, "Mr. Bao woke up."

"what?"

Bao Ze also jumped up from the chair, grabbed the phone, and only heard Professor Bi Duanfang say: "The patient is still unable to speak, but has regained consciousness. He is transferred to the general ward. You can come and visit him."

The two looked at each other, and immediately rushed out to the hospital.

In the ward, most of the intubation tubes and instruments had been removed from President Bao. When Bao Ze arrived, he saw his father blinking at him a few times before falling into a deep sleep.

Professor Fang explained, "The patient is out of danger, but it will take a long time to recover. At present, he cannot stay awake for a long time, but please rest assured that the situation will improve day by day. The hospital has equipped rehabilitation therapists, who will pass the training later. Patients should eventually regain some function."

Bao Ze sat by the hospital bed, held his father's right hand, and said softly, "Don't worry, Dad, I will take care of the group."

Standing behind him, Duansheng couldn't help the sore nose and moist eyes. He quietly wiped away the tears and walked out the door.

Not long after, the nurse came to chase them away, so Bao Ze had to go out. He found Duansheng outside the ward, saw Duansheng's eyelids swollen, and his nose was red, he was both surprised and shocked.

"Are you crying? What's the matter, you care more about Dad's condition than I do?"

In Bao Ze's mind, all sorts of plots of grievances and grievances from rich and powerful families instantly appeared, illegitimate children?mistress?or……

Duansheng saw that he was suspicious, and hurriedly waved his hands, "No, no, it's not what you think, I'm just happy for the chairman."

Bao Ze asked back, "How do you know what I'm thinking?"

Duansheng could only say: "It's a long story, it's almost dinner time, let's talk while eating."

There are shopping malls and food courts outside the hospital, the two sat down in a quiet restaurant, and Duansheng explained from the beginning.

"Mr. Bao pays great attention to charity, and the group allocates huge sums of money to give back to the society every year. I am an orphan, and after I was admitted to university, I relied on the scholarship sponsored by the group to complete my studies. In my senior year, the group gave me an internship opportunity, and I was able to successfully sign the contract after graduation. , live and work in this city. Mr. Bao is generous and takes good care of his subordinates. We assistants are like juniors in his eyes, and he never hesitates to point out the ways of the world. Therefore, Mr. Bao is not only a boss to me, but also a respectable elder. If I I was fortunate enough to grow up beside my own father, and I hope he can be half as good as Mr. Bao. This time Mr. Bao fell ill, as if he had lost his backer, and the feeling of helplessness he had when he was a child returned instantly, and I was terrified. Today Seeing Mr. Bao getting better, he was both happy and relieved, and couldn't help but shed tears."

Bao Ze was extremely ashamed of his suspicions, "It's me who judges a gentleman's belly with a villain's heart."

Duansheng waved his hands again and again, "No, no, it's because I lost my composure and caused people to misunderstand."

The two had a tacit understanding, looked at each other and laughed with relief.

More than a month later, the group's financial audit was completed, and the listing work was progressing smoothly. Finally, he didn't have to work overtime every day. Bao Ze got some breathing room, and took advantage of his spare time in the afternoon to visit the hospital alone.

He walked to the ward, opened the door, and saw that the room was empty, and all the instruments in front of the bed had disappeared.

Bao Ze stopped breathing for a moment, and he didn't dare to guess what happened.

At this time, a nurse passed by the door and saw his pale face and cold sweat oozing from his forehead. She couldn't help exclaiming, "Mr. Bao, are you unwell?"

Bao Ze tremblingly asked, "Where is my father?"

The nurse paused, and finally understood why Bao Ze's expression was so stiff, and immediately said: "Mr. Bao is going to go for a CT examination, and he will be back soon. Mr. Xiao Bao can go into the room and wait."

Bao Ze's heart seemed to be beating again, and his face returned to normal, "Thank you."

Not long after, the nurse sent Bao's father back, and the rehabilitation therapist assisted the nurse to lift Bao's father to the hospital bed.

Father Bao still couldn't speak or move, but he was able to stay awake. When he saw Bao Ze, he blinked and made ahhh noises.

Bao Ze accompanied the hospital bed, and described the work of these days one by one, just like reporting the study progress to his father in college. He didn't know how much his father could understand in this state, but at this moment, his father was still in front of him, sick and weak. The body exudes a familiar aura, which is enough to make him feel at ease.

When Bao's father showed a tired expression and closed his eyes, Bao Ze stopped talking, tucked up the quilt for his father, and left gently.

When he walked out of the ward, Bao Ze smelled the unique smell of disinfectant in the hospital, and suddenly stopped in his tracks.He was only talking to his father just now, but he ignored the unique aura on Father Bao.Father Bao didn't have luxury hobbies in his life, he only liked top-quality cigars, and the smell just now was the unique taste of Cohiba cigars.But, how can a patient who has been in bed for a long time smoke tobacco?

Bao Ze suppressed his beating heart, walked out of the inpatient building with a normal expression, drove out of the hospital and turned right, parked the car in a shopping mall, immediately went to buy a set of hooded sportswear and sunglasses, changed his clothes and slipped back to the hospital again.

He was already a regular customer in the inpatient department, and he knew the time when the nurses were changing shifts. He sneaked up to the ward when the nurse station was empty, and bent down to listen to the movement in the room like a thief. He only heard voices coming from inside.

"Mr. Bao, how long are you going to live in? Our doctors and nurses will accompany you to act together. It really tests your reflexes."

"What's the rush, the play needs to be full, I'm so sick, I'll have to stay for half a year before I can be discharged from the hospital. Don't worry, I will give you extra bonuses, and I will never treat you badly."

"It's not about money. Mr. Bao, Mr. Bao has taken over all the business of the group. Why do you have to worry about scaring the children like this? You can recover faster. I will arrange a nurse for you. You can go home after you leave the hospital." Go on."

"The house is only a big place, and it is easy to be exposed, so there is no hospital."

At this moment, Bao Ze knew everything in his heart, he straightened up, pushed the door open, and saw Professor Fang and Father Bao sitting on the sofa in front of the window, with a cigar in each hand, puffing clouds together.

Bao Ze laughed angrily, "I really didn't expect Dad to recover so quickly. Professor Fang is good at medicine."

Bao's father and Professor Fang didn't expect him to return secretly, and the deception was exposed, and they felt very embarrassed.

"Oh, I still have an operation to do, you father and son talk slowly."

Professor Fang came back to his senses, and immediately slipped away with an excuse.

Bao Ze dragged the chair and sat down, face to face with Father Bao, "Dad, do you have anything to say?"

As expected of father Bao, he is very old and hot, without the slightest expression of guilt, he said straightforwardly: "If I don't lie to you like this, how could you come back? If you are not filial, just quarrel with you, even if you go abroad for more than ten years and don't come back. Do you know that your father and I are old and have to work hard every day. You are not young, but you only know that you are free, and you don’t come back to help me. If your second uncle and third uncle didn’t see you as unfilial, how dare you back it So many little moves."

Bao Ze was speechless, it was a slap in the face.

"Father, you told me to get out that year."

"Ha, you suddenly told me that you like boys, which parents can accept it calmly, but I was so angry that I didn't choose what to say, and I didn't tell you not to come back after getting out, why are you so serious."

"I've been out for a long time, but you haven't called me yet. I thought you were still angry. How did you come back?"

"You don't take the initiative to call me, do you want me to bow my head first?"

When parents play rogues, children have to admit defeat.

Bao Ze said helplessly: "Father, I can bow my head first, but you have to understand that my sexuality cannot be changed."

Father Bao resentfully said, "I know, I have already figured it out, children and grandchildren have their own blessings, as long as you live happily."

Wow, Bao Ze was frightened. How could his old father be so reasonable? Immediately, Bao father continued: "If you choose a boy as your partner, I will only be multiple sons. However, marriage is not like falling in love. I don’t care about a few foreign men, but if you decide to get married, your partner must be Chinese. I’m not open, I can’t accept coming to a foreign country, what about Rogge, Kevin, and that Mexican boy , all of them are either coquettish or out of childishness, I feel uncomfortable just looking at them, you must never bring them home."

These people were Bao Ze's ex-boyfriends, and Bao's father knew it clearly. Bao Ze suddenly jumped up, "You sent someone to watch me."

Father Bao stared, "I only have you as a son, so I have to make sure you are doing well outside."

Bao Ze took a deep breath to stabilize his mood, and sat down again.

Father Bao continued: "Actually, in terms of being a daughter-in-law, Duansheng is the best. She respects the old and loves the young, is considerate and filial, and can handle everything, whether it is work or housework. She can be both a partner and a good wife. Excellent men are by your side, why go outside to find a boyfriend.”

Bao Ze thought of some possibility, and widened his eyes, "You want to match me with Duansheng?" For some reason, his voice trembled, "Did Duansheng also know that you pretended to be sick, and he coaxed me back with you?"

Father Bao looked at him like a fool, "How can I let Duansheng know that this kid is so smart, once I show my tricks, he will be able to guess what I have in mind, how can I get along with you calmly."

Bao Ze breathed a sigh of relief in an instant, he was very lucky.

His demeanor fell into the old father's eyes, and Bao's father suddenly smiled, "What, what's my vision? Duansheng is as you wish?"

Bao Ze pretended to be calm, "We've only been together for two months, so it's too early to ask this question."

Father Bao pierced his disguise, "What kind of big-tailed wolf are you pretending to be in front of me? If you don't mean anything to him, why invite him to dinner after work? You go to the mall to buy clothes. Do you need to buy an extra set as a gift for him?"

Bao Ze was powerless to get angry, "Which one of us is your eyeliner?"

Father Bao put his left leg on his right knee, shaking triumphantly, "Find it yourself if you have the ability."

Bao Ze knew that he couldn't ask, so he had to change the subject, "You have a good plan, but how do you ensure that Duansheng has the same sexual orientation as me and is willing to accept same-sex pursuit?"

"I investigated the situation of Duansheng during his studies. He was prone to depression due to sexual problems. He was paid close attention to by the class teacher and sent to the school hospital for psychological counseling. This child was lucky, and the teacher he met was very responsible, and he soon returned to normal."

"What if he already has a boyfriend?"

"Impossible, as my assistant, where is the time to make friends?"

So far, Bao Ze has cast all his eyes on his father.

Father Bao subdued his son, and he was in a good mood, "Hurry up and catch Duansheng. In the future, the group will be managed by you, and I can retire with peace of mind. Now that medical science is extremely advanced, homosexuals can have children through surrogacy. I have sent someone to be a surrogate." Candidates, after you get married, you can arrange pregnancy matters, then you will have three boys and five girls, and I will have grandchildren at home, so I won't be lonely."

Bao Ze shook his head, "Why do you need to be a surrogate? American medical technology is advanced, and artificial wombs can be implanted in men. At that time, I will undergo surgery and give birth to a grandson for you."

Father Bao was stunned, and hesitated: "Is there any risk in doing surgery, or is it safer to be a surrogate?"

Immediately seeing Bao Ze's teasing smile, he immediately understood that he was being teased by his son, and couldn't help but face a serious look, and roared, "Get out!"

Bao Ze pulled back a round, quickly escaped out the door, smiling all the way home.

The next day, Bao Ze walked into the office with a happy face, Duan Sheng felt his mood keenly, and asked, "But what's the happy event? So happy?"

Bao Ze paused and laughed, "I visited my father yesterday and found that the rehabilitation treatment is very effective, and I can move slowly, and I will be discharged home next week."

Duansheng couldn't help but beam with joy, "It's really good news." Then he said: "Even if you are discharged from the hospital, you will need long-term treatment in the future, and you need to prepare a lot. First, you must ask the hospital to recommend a nurse, and you must live at home for 24 hours. , Carpets and other auxiliary facilities need to be installed in the home to prevent Mr. Bao from falling when he moves. In the past, there was only one housekeeper, but this time we need to hire a full-time chef who makes nutritious meals..."

He carefully calculated one by one, and Bao Ze saw them all.

He couldn't help it, and hugged Duansheng gently, "Thank you, meeting you is the best thing since I returned to China."

He was an inch taller than Duansheng, and in this posture, his breath just passed over Duansheng's ears, and his ears immediately became bloodshot and red.

Bao Ze didn't intend to take advantage of this, so he let go of his hand very quickly, and those ears and his bewildered expression fell into his eyes.

Duansheng comforted himself. The boss has been abroad for many years and is accustomed to Western etiquette. He should not get confused and smiled calmly. "Mr. Bao is a big deal, this is my job."

He didn't know, when he walked out, Bao Ze showed a meaningful smile behind him.

At this moment, Bao Ze is sure that Duan Sheng also has a special affection for him, so he can boldly charge forward with confidence.

Half a year later, all the work was ready. On this day, the group was finally listed, and the stock sale went smoothly. That night, the whole group celebrated collectively.

When the night was quiet and everyone dispersed, Bao Ze left Duansheng alone.

He took out a contract from the drawer and handed it to Duansheng.

"Your contract with the group is about to expire. I asked a lawyer to re-draft this new contract. From the date of signing, you are not only an employee of the group, but also my personal assistant. The company I created in the United States holds 35% of the shares. The benefits obtained are shared with you, and 10% of the dividends from the group's shareholdings are also directly transferred to your account. From now on, you and I will advance and retreat together, I wonder if you are willing to accept it?"

Domestic law does not recognize same-sex marriage. Bao Ze has no intention of holding weddings or going abroad to sign gimmicks. When his mother was alive, his mother taught him that the most important means of stabilizing the relationship between husband and wife is profit, not children. When two people have the same interests, it is the best Partners and allies.

He is willing to share the wealth with Duansheng, and tie the two of them together with benefits. This is his greatest sincerity.

Duansheng was startled, he had sensed Bao Ze's affection for him early in the morning, but he didn't know that this sincerity was so profound.

Duansheng choked up and couldn't speak for a long time. He signed his name tremblingly, "I am willing."

Bao Ze held his breath and waited for a long time, almost thinking that he was unwilling, but at this moment his heart fell back to its original place.He took a step forward and hugged Duansheng, "This is the most careful decision I have made in the first half of my life. I will be responsible to you, and we will grow old together."

Duansheng hugged her back tightly.

In his 32 years of life, he has never been loved so much. At this moment, his life is complete.

In the early morning of the next day, Bao Ze returned home from Duansheng's residence to change clothes. As soon as he entered the door, he saw Bao's father sitting at the dining table with a teasing expression on his face, "Last night's celebration banquet lasted all night?"

There was no outsider in the room, Bao Ze didn't need to hide, showing a complacent expression, he stepped forward and leaned over to hug the old father, "Everything is as you wish."

Today is not a holiday, and Bao Ze still needs to go back to work. It is rare for him to be an hour late to enter the group building. Unfortunately, he caught up with the elevator maintenance, so he had to climb up the stairs step by step. ox.

Bao Ze stopped, leaned against the corner to rest, and secretly warned himself that he needed to exercise more. At this moment, he heard a voice from the upper stairs. The voice was familiar. It was Li Yue, the secretary, talking on the phone.

Bao Ze had no intention of eavesdropping on other people's privacy, but the sound spread very well in the small space, he clearly heard Li Yue say, "Yes, Chen Tezhu is at work, Xiao Bao hasn't arrived yet...Chen Tezhu's mood?...It looks very good... Yes, yes, if there is any situation, you must let Mr. Bao know as soon as possible."

It turned out that the eyeliner was her, and Bao Ze suddenly realized.

Secretary Li's desk was placed at the door of the chairman's office, and Bao Ze's schedule was handled by her. No wonder Bao's father knew his son's movements like the palm of his hand.

When Bao Ze entered the office, Duan Sheng was already waiting inside with a pile of documents. The two of them had no time to chat, and immediately entered the office mode. After everything was processed, Bao Ze remembered to ask, "How many years has Li Yue been in the company? Is it very good?" Dad trusts?"

"Secretary Li joined the group as a clerk after graduating from university. It has been five years now. She is the youngest daughter of the driver Lao Li. She is as stable as her father. Mr. Bao likes it very much."

Bao Ze's eyes widened, "Is she Uncle Li's daughter?"

Duansheng was surprised, "You don't know?"

Bao Ze let out a wow from the bottom of his heart, so it turns out that the Li family father and daughter are father Bao's confidantes, and cooperated with the performance from beginning to end.

He thought he was Monkey King, but unexpectedly he couldn't escape Bao Fu's bergamot.

When Duansheng went out to deploy work, Bao Ze looked at the photo of his father on the table, and cupped his hands, "I admire you for your wit and scheming."

Looking back on the encounter after returning to China, I couldn't help laughing
