Delicate mother of a villian - chapter 225
This chapter is sponsored by Yun!
Looking at the sleeping Gu Shumo, Xia Xingchen muttered silently in his heart–
‘I look a lot like my mother. I’m my mother’s son.’
It was like self hypnosis.
However, the male voice in his head interrupted his thoughts again, ‘Don’t think about it, you’re really not her child.’
‘Liar! You’re lying! You are a bad person! I don’t believe what the bad guys say!’
‘I am lying to you? Hey Xia Xingchen! In this world, anyone could lie to you except me. I will never lie to you.’
‘No! Mom said that I was her child. Mom would never lie to me!’
‘Oh, Xia Xingchen, wake up. You are indeed not Xia An’s child, because … the woman gave birth to … a girl, not a boy.’
…
–China–
“It’s over, this time, our Xia family is really going to end! This C.H company came to China to fight with our family! It left the high-end skin care products to grab the low-end daily use products market from us!”
Xia Cheng saw that the sales of the daily use company of the Xia family had been declining recently to the state of slump. The anxiety in his heart was extraordinary.
He didn’t understand the C.H company. It had so many funds that they invested in such a large Chinese market just to maintain the sale of products throughout the country.
Moreover, the company’s products overlapped theirs too much.Their effectiveness to cost ratio was also incredible!
“Dad, this time our Xia family was really hit hard.”
Xia Pengming narrowed his eyes, which were full of helplessness.
Nothing could be compared with their competitors! Not only were their products effective, but most were cheap.
With such good and cheap products, plus a famous celebrity endorsing it, people would choose C.H company’s products.
Their physical chain stores were so meticulous that they simply didn’t let other companies of the same type survive.
“But dad, don’t think much. Anyway, it’s not just our company that is affected.”
Xia Cheng was furious hearing this.
“You idiot, what do you know? Do you think our family can withstand this kind of trouble like before? Since your grandma left, we have fallen. Our current Xia family is completely not comparable to the Xia family of that time.”
Having said that, Xia Cheng felt indignant.
His mother’s family business had fallen because of his improper management. It had been battered and could no longer withstand the storm.
If the momentum of the C.H company stays strong, their big industry would be … completely over.
“C.H’s products overlap with ours too much. As long as C.H is open for another day, our company will probably fail,” Xia Cheng said seriously.
Xia Pengming suddenly froze. He was not stupid, he knew that the C.H company was a threat to their company.
It was just that … he always felt that their Xia was a big company and C.H was just a foreign company.
They had a lot of capital so others were totally inferior to their Xia family.
But now he realised that the financial status of their Xia family would not be as great as he imagined. His father told him about some losses in recent years and so he discovered the seriousness of the matter.
If they didn’t do anything, their Xia family was over!
He was a rich son of a wealthy man who could become a common man. Xia Pengming panicked thinking of this.
“No, no! Dad, is there any way to solve this?”
Xia Cheng was silent for a while, took a deep breath, and said heavily, “The only way now is to-cooperate with C.H.”
“As long as we cooperate with C.H and we strive to obtain the agency rights of all the daily chemical products of their company, only then can we get rid of this crisis, but also return the glory of the Xia family.”
Xia Cheng felt that this matter must be handled like this!
Yes, get C.H product agency rights!
Xia Pengming only felt that his father was too simple minded.
The products of the company C.H were now selling so well and more importantly, they had invested so much in the early stage, by opening numerous C.H brand chain stores across the country.
Why would C.H give the agency right to them?
He did not know the Immensity of Heaven and Earth*.
(To not know the Immensity of Heaven and Earth (不知天高地厚 bùzhī tiān gāo dì hòu): having an exaggerated opinion of one’s own abilities)
Xia Pengming tried to persuade him,”Dad, this …”
He was interrupted by Xia Cheng, “OK, I have my own way of doing this.”
After all, the older the ginger the spicier it gets.
(The older the ginger the spicier it gets: The old people are wise)
How could Xia Cheng be so simple?
He had long asked to investigate the relationship between Xia An and C.H, and the results of the investigation did not have any problems.
It was strange that Xia An’s relationship with C.H was too close.
Therefore, Xia Cheng had to think of certain things.
When Xia An came to know Xia Cheng’s thoughts on her relationship with the C.H company, a mouthful of water almost sprayed on Xia Cheng’s face.
‘Puff–!’
Xia An never imagined that Xia Cheng, who never contacted the original owner for so many years would meet her like this. As soon as she met her father, he guessed that she was in love with the old man of C.H.
Hehe, saying the word ‘falling in love’ was giving her respect. In fact, what Xia Cheng really meant was that she was contracted by the boss of C.H.
On hearing ia Cheng’s word, Xia An splurted a mouthful of water on his face.
“Mr. Xia, I’m sorry, but what you said is so surprising that I just …”
Xia An didn’t say the latter words. She just wiped her mouth and looked at Xia Cheng with a smile on her face.
She was too busy. After receiving Xia Cheng’s phone call, she met him.
Alas, at this time, she might as well lie down and watch TV at home.
“Xia An, I know that you have resentment against our Xia family in your heart. But Xia An, you have also called me father for more than ten years and I am also your adoptive father. We still have a relationship. No matter what relationship you have with the boss of C.H company, I just hope that you can help me since we have nurtured you for more than ten years.”
Seeing Xia An’s reaction, Xia Cheng realized at this time that his adopted daughter had really changed.
The gentle girl who he had been so accustomed to was never seen again.
“Help? Mr. Xia, I can’t help you. Now everyone knows how well C.H daily use products are sold. The company’s brand chain stores have opened all over the country and the momentum is good. Why would they want to sell product agency rights?”
Xia An said indifferently and sneered, “Mr. Xia, don’t treat everyone as a fool. You want to cooperate, so the C.H company could give you money?”
Xia Cheng’s face turned purple and blue. The words that Xia An said were very mean, but they all were the truth.

Thank you for the translation! Thank you team and sponsors.
I really don’t like where the story is going now. So An Qi is her real child?
Devi
No, please don’t. I hope it’s another girl and she’s adopted by decent family and good parents and she’s living happily now. Far away from the plot.
