Chapter 256 Chi Feiwan, are you mentally retarded?

Chi Feiwan got in the car and said, "I'll feel bad if I don't return it."

Jiang Huaixu sneered: "Are you sure you want to pay me back? The money is in US dollars."

Chi Feiwan was still as naive as ever: "I will pay you back when I earn money when I return to China."

Jiang Huaixu slammed on the brakes: "Chi Feiwan, are you mentally retarded?"

He laughed in anger: "Have you not grown up yet? Let's not talk about how much the monthly salary of the job you found is. You have to pay me back and live your own life. How much do you have left in a month? How many years will it take to pay it back?"

Jiang Huaixu stepped on the accelerator again: "I said I don't want you to pay it back, don't you understand what I'm saying?"

He always felt that Chi Feiwan had to go through that incident before she could truly change her naivety.

"But..." Chi Feiwan bit his lip, "I don't want to owe you anything."

"You don't want to owe me?" Jiang Huaixu turned to look at her, "Then how are you going to pay me back? With your body?"

Chi Feiwan's face flushed instantly, "Jiang Huaixu, you hooligan!"

"I just mentioned a possibility." Jiang Huaixu raised a teasing smile, "Or, you can marry me, so you don't have to pay back the money."

"You..." Chi Feiwan was very polite. The atmosphere just now was depressing, but now it was eased by his teasing.

"I was just kidding." Seeing that Chi Feiwan was really angry, Jiang Huaixu quickly explained, "You don't have to pay me back. If you mention paying me back again, I'll throw you on the side of the road."

This time, Chi Feiwan was really obedient. Not to mention whether he could find the way home, traveling on the streets of a foreign country was like traveling into the underworld. He was terrified and his life or death depended entirely on fate.

In the past few weeks, Chi Feiwan has been translating those folders, and occasionally goes out for fun with Jiang Huaixu.

That night, Chi Feiwan finally finished translating all the documents. She knocked on Jiang Huaixu's door holding a pile of folders.

I found that the study door was still not opened.

Jiang Huaixu installed soundproofing in the study room. Chi Feiwan stood at the door and could not hear anything going on inside.

In the study, Jiang Huaixu put one hand on his waist and the other hand holding the phone to his ear. His face was gloomy and his eyes were full of anger: "I told you to give me some time, why did you send someone to follow me and Wanwan!"

The person on the other end of the phone crossed his legs. The moonlight from the French window fell, casting a shadow on him: "Jiang Huaixu, I gave you time? Did I mean for you to date my younger sister? It's been a month, and you've taken her all over New York City. I'm afraid you've forgotten that we have a partnership."

"I haven't forgotten." Jiang Huaixu gritted his teeth and said, "Chi Shiyun, don't force me!"

"I force you? It was you who asked me to cooperate with you in the beginning." The man chuckled, "Jiang Huaixu, Chi Feiwan is my sister. I have a way to make her not marry you. After all, there are too many people who want to marry my sister. I remember that your brother seemed to like my sister too. I..."

"Give me three months, at least let Wanwan have fun in these three months." Jiang Huaixu closed his eyes.

At this time, Chi Feiwan's voice came from outside the door: "Jiang Huaixu, are you in there?"

Jiang Huaixu quickly hung up the phone, took a deep breath, and opened the door.

Chi Feiwan saw that he looked a little strange, and asked with concern, "What's wrong with you?"

Jiang Huaixu forced a smile and shook his head: "It's okay, have you translated the document?"

Chi Feiwan handed him the document and said, "It's translated. If there are no other problems, I'll go back and rest."

Jiang Huaixu nodded, took the document, and looked at Chi Feiwan's departing back with worried eyes.

Chi Shiyun is a ruthless man. He will not wait obediently for three months. As for why he is so anxious, perhaps Chi Feiwan can give an answer.

Jiang Huaixu cut the apple and handed it to Chi Feiwan who was watching TV series in the living room: "I want to ask you something."

Showing courtesy for nothing is either cheating or stealing.

Chi Feiwan poked each piece of apple with a toothpick, then she picked up a piece and put it into her mouth.

When the apple enters the mouth, its juice instantly overflows from the mouth. It feels like the essence of the apple is exploding in the mouth.

Chi Feiwan turned down the volume of the TV: "What's the matter?"

"How is the head of your family chosen?"

The outside world only had a few words about the Chi family's selection of the head of the family, saying that ability was considered, but there was no detailed report on what specific abilities were considered.

Chi Feiwan held the toothpick in his hand suspended in the air, blinked and looked at Jiang Huaixu.

"Whoever has the strongest ability will be the head of the Chi family. Of course, there are also shares. If the shares held in the company are second only to the current head of the family, then he will get the inheritance rights."

His father was an only child and did not need to compete for the position of family head, but he was not capable enough, so Grandpa Chi did not consider giving the position of family head to him, but instead looked to his grandson.

Jiang Huaixu thought: "Is there no time limit?"

"Before I was 27."

No wonder Chi Shiyun was so anxious, because he was 26 years old this year. If he didn't do it before he was 27, the position of head of the family would pass him by.

"Then...what if someone seizes the position of head of the family?" Jiang Huaixu continued to ask.

Chi Feiwan took a bite of the apple and said, "It depends on each person's ability, but generally speaking, this kind of thing won't happen."

"You trust me so much?" Jiang Huaixu also ate a piece of apple.

Chi Feiwan glanced at him and said softly, "Not everyone wants the position of family head. It takes a lot of energy and time to fight for it. Once you become the family head, you have to devote yourself to the management of the family business and have almost no private space. Although you have the power of the head of the family, you have lost your freedom. For those who don't like power, it is a kind of bondage and shackles."

She is well aware of the pros and cons, so she does not envy those who pursue power.

For her, being free and unrestrained is the most important thing.

"Thank you for the apple." Chi Feiwan smiled sweetly, "It's delicious."

Jiang Huaixu looked at her smile and felt better. "I remember you have 5% of the shares. Doesn't that mean you are very popular?"

Wouldn't she be a hot commodity? Chi Shiyun did whatever it took to get her 5% stake.

Chi Feiwan has never been able to understand why power can make people so cold and ruthless, and even numb their family affection. She has seen too many such examples, where those people would do anything to pursue power, even at the cost of hurting their closest people.

She didn't know how bad these people were, but she knew they had lost the bottom line of humanity.

This phenomenon not only exists among the upper echelons of society, but also among ordinary people, conflicts and contradictions often arise over power.

One day, Chi Feiwan will experience it firsthand.
