Chapter VIII Matrimonial Partnership Company Limited

After getting married, Fang Shanmu and Sheng Chen both worked hard, and the two were quickly promoted. There was a time when Sheng Chen's position and income were even higher than Fang Shanmu's. Fang Shanmu didn't care, his daughter-in-law was stronger than himself, which showed that he had a good vision, and he was happy and proud of Sheng Chen.

However, later, Fang Shanmu accumulated steadily, and slowly surpassed Sheng Chen, from deputy director, director to department head, all the way up, and the life of the two of them was getting better and better, not only bought a car and a house in the capital, but also ushered in a new life.

The birth of his son Xiang Dong changed the trajectory of Sheng Chen's life!

Originally, Sheng Chen was about to be promoted to the position of department head, but unexpectedly found out that she was pregnant. Sheng Chen originally planned to have no children first, and then talk about it after he was promoted to the vice president of the company. When she reaches the position of vice president, no one will easily touch her, and even if she is pregnant and has a child, she will have her place after returning to the company.

But Fang Shanmu disagreed.

Fang Shanmu believes that children are not easy to come by, and they should not easily stifle the right of a life to come into the world, and they want to be general managers after being promoted to vice president, and they want to be vice presidents when they become general managers, and the pursuit of career is never endless, but children can't wait.

Sheng Chen was persuaded and accepted the fact that she was pregnant. A few months later, the child was born, and she was moved by the new life and offered to resign. The company expressed regret, but did not retain it too much.

I thought that she only needed to take her children to kindergarten before she could be reborn and realize her career dreams again. Unexpectedly, after his son went to kindergarten, he was not social, and often quarreled with children, and Sheng Chen was called several times to apologize to other parents.

After elementary school, his son's academic performance was not good, so Sheng Chen increased his tutoring. When I was in junior high school, my son's grades came up, but the ups and downs were unstable, so she had to accompany him throughout the whole process and check his homework. Over time, Sheng Chen gave up the idea of going out to work, and all his thoughts were on his son's studies.

As Fang Shanmu became more and more successful in his career, his position became higher and higher, and his income increased significantly accordingly, he bought a few houses and changed luxury cars one after another, and Sheng Chen had no idea of going out to work again. Compared with her meager income from the bottom when she goes out to work and starts from scratch, it is better to devote herself to her husband and children at home, and be a virtuous wife and a meticulous mother.

Sheng Chen took care of everything in the house in an orderly manner, and was also responsible for financial management, not only rationally planning Fang Shanmu's income, buying a house and buying a fund to appreciate, but also handling things inside and outside the family in an orderly manner. It can be said that the two of them are one outside the main and the other are inside, and they cooperate seamlessly, which can be called a model couple.

With the joint efforts of the two, not only the net assets have gained a lot, but the successive purchases of several houses have also risen sharply, and the family assets of the two have continued to appreciate.

If it weren't for Jiangbian's appearance, Fang Shanmu believed that he and Sheng Chen would continue to cooperate tacitly and run their marriage limited liability company intimately. But since Jiang Bian met Sheng Chen, everything has changed.

Although before the appearance of Jiangbian, Sheng Chen had some slight signs, such as starting to ask his phone to leave no password, or telling her what the password was. Another example is asking him to go home before 11 o'clock in the evening, and if he is late at 11 o'clock, he must take the initiative to explain the situation and make a video call to let her know who he is with.

Another example is not to go on a business trip with a female colleague, it is really necessary for work, and you can't be alone, you need to be accompanied by a third person, and the third person can't be a woman. What's more, Sheng Chen also asked Fang Shanmu not to have a female assistant, not to eat alone with female colleagues, not to have frequent contact with women, even if the other party is a business partner or an important partner, and so on.

A series of unreasonable demands made Fang Shanmu laugh, and he also knew that Sheng Chen's overly sensitive was behind him to guard against his cheating. The difference between men and women is that the youth and beauty that women devote to love and marriage need to be advanced in advance, while men achieve fame many years later than women.

Relatively speaking, women who invest too much too early in marriage really can't withstand the passage of time, youth and beauty are a relatively fast depreciation of capital, and men after the age of 30, with the improvement of status, personal value begins to appreciate. Especially when you are over 40 years old, whether it is mature personal charm or economic status, it becomes more and more heavy, just like old wine.

In contrast, a woman's youth is gone, and her beauty is also declining, and women will feel that they are no longer equal to men and cannot match, and under the fear of losing their sense of security, they will be wary of men, and it is normal for them to prevent problems before they happen.

Fang Shanmu explained to Sheng Chen bitterly that he had no idea of cheating, let alone doing anything to hurt Sheng Chen and his family, he loved Sheng Chen deeply, all his love was exhausted in Sheng Chen, and it was impossible and would not fall in love with someone else, so Sheng Chen didn't have to worry, let alone make these requests to restrain him. Marriage is actually a joint-stock partnership, and what is needed is mutual trust between partners. If the foundation of trust is lost, one party will always be suspicious of the other, and there will be no way to continue to operate.

And Fang Shanmu also assured Sheng Chen that if he really cheated, he would go out and leave all his property to Sheng Chen as compensation. He worked hard and was single-mindedly promoted, but in fact, it was all for the family, for her and the children.

Originally, after being appeased by Fang Shanmu, Sheng Chen's mind stabilized a lot, and he devoted himself to tutoring and supervising the child's studies. Unexpectedly, after attending a family gathering of Gu Hao and Sheng Chen getting to know the riverside, everything that Fang Shanmu had worked so hard to manage collapsed.

In the end, how Jiangbian encouraged Sheng Chen, or why Sheng Chen listened to Jiangbian's words and no longer listened to his explanation, Fang Shanmu didn't know, he only knew that Jiangbian and Sheng Chen quickly approached, commensurate with best friends, the two worked out together, watched movies together, ate together, and were like sisters.

Fang Shanmu had talked to Gu Hao once, hoping that Gu Hao would restrain Jiangbian and not let Jiangbian interfere in his family. Since Jiangbian and Sheng Chen became so-called best friends, Sheng Chen's attitude towards him has changed sharply, not only recovering his previous suspicions, but also intensifying, putting forward many unreasonable demands that make people laugh and cry, and unbelievable, which makes him have a big headache at the same time, but also tires of it.

Gu Hao cried to Fang Shanmu, he couldn't control the riverside at all. Ever since he married Jiangbian, he has been in a situation where he is strictly controlled by Jiangbian. Jiangbian's control over him is more than several times stricter than the company's management of him! Sheng Chen's various vexatious demands on Fang Shanmu are all methods that Jiangbian once imposed on him.

Gu Hao even cried bitterly, gritting his teeth and claiming that he would definitely divorce Jiangbian, and when the opportunity was right, he would say anything to escape Jiangbian's clutches. He also advised Fang Shanmu, grit your teeth and endure it if you can bear it, life is like this, there will always be some pain that you don't want to bear. If you can bear it, you should enjoy it. If you can't bear it, you will resist, anyway, they are men, a 40-year-old man in his prime, and he is still popular after the divorce. It's a big deal, who is afraid of whom?

Fang Shanmu didn't think about getting a divorce, but he also wanted to accept Sheng Chen's constraints. Although Sheng Chen tried to convince him by bringing out the example of her previous successful training, he was unmoved. After all, this is not what it used to be, he is a successful person now, and Sheng Chen has been a full-time housewife for many years, and she has been out of touch with the workplace and career, and she no longer has the ability and pattern that can lead him forward.

Fang Shanmu resisted and refused, and Sheng Chen's anger intensified. Fang Shanmu continued to fight and tried every means to deal with it, and over time, the intimacy between the two was broken, suspicion and confrontation deepened, and they gradually drifted apart, and it evolved into a cold war step by step.

The Cold War lasted for a year, until a few days ago Sheng Chen went crazy and had to meddle in one of his projects, just because the person in charge of the other party he cooperated with was a beauty!

The stakes are high and it is a key acquisition that the company has been striving for. The acquired company has a considerable proportion of the market share, and not only Fang Shanmu's company has been coveted for a long time, but several competing companies also want to take over the acquired company. The acquired company was in charge of the negotiation of a beautiful woman in her early 30s, named Jiang Fuyu, with long hair, long legs, a thin waist, and a thin face, which is Fang Shanmu's favorite type.

A 30-year-old light mature woman is the most amorous age group for women, and she is quite tempted by Fang Shanmu. But Fang Shanmu is not like Gu Hao, he is stunned when he sees a beautiful woman, he has enough self-control and concentration, not to mention that he also knows that the other party sent such an attractive person in charge of a beautiful woman, obviously to use beauty to make him make mistakes.

Fang Shanmu doesn't mean that he is a decent gentleman, he also likes and is willing to appreciate beautiful women, but liking and appreciating are one thing, whether he has an idea or not is another matter. He can like and appreciate it, but not think about it. Gu Hao is different, every time he sees a beautiful woman, he has the idea of seeing the hunting heart, and he wants to succeed.

If it weren't for Sheng Chen's troubles and interference, Fang Shanmu would have enough confidence to handle the negotiation with Jiang Fuyu. But what he didn't expect was that Sheng Chen made an unexpected move.

Sheng Chen's move would be okay if he paid attention to the rules and followed the laws of the market, but she attacked indiscriminately - when Fang Shanmu had already taken the initiative and the negotiations had reached a critical stage, Sheng Chen suddenly appeared in front of him and Jiang Fuyu, accusing him of betraying his family and attacking Jiang Fuyu to seduce someone else's husband.

Fang Shanmu was panicked, not because he had something unsightly and was caught by Sheng Chen, but because Sheng Chen appeared at the wrong time, and the slightest carelessness may lead to the loss of his previous achievements! This matter is related to the company's major adjustment in expanding the market, and if it succeeds, it will also be an extremely beautiful battle in his career, and it is enough to write into the history of mergers and acquisitions of China's Internet companies!
