Chapter 2125: Chapter 2221: Ashamed by Comparison

"President Du, you truly have refined taste. Who would have thought even power banks could pass for phones? I must say I’m really impressed!"

Su Xuan said with a smile. On the surface, this statement seemed flawless, but it was actually mocking this idiot. Honestly, calling a power bank a phone was shameless. It was hard to find someone as shameless as this guy.

Du Haitao coughed awkwardly, unable to think of anything to say at that moment. He hadn’t expected to make such a rookie mistake. Thinking about it, he felt like he had embarrassed himself all the way to Grandma’s house. Now that he had been embarrassed, he could only think about covering it up.

An extravagant show-off session turned into an embarrassing spectacle just because he picked up the wrong power bank. What was supposed to be a demonstration of style ended up being a face-palm moment. Du Haitao didn’t know what to say.

"Mr. Su, I’ve heard you’re married?"

Finally, after a long pause, he managed to think of something to attack Su Xuan with, which indeed was a decent strategy to use against him.

In his view, Chen Chuyu might not know that Su Xuan was already married, so now was a great opportunity.

"Yeah, I’m almost thirty. If I don’t get married soon, I might never get the chance. President Du, I heard your kid is old enough to buy soy sauce; you’re really fast. You’re a role model for our generation."

Su Xuan said with a smile, while Du Haitao’s face turned eggplant-colored. He looked at Su Xuan with an urge to strangle this fool.

"President Du, you’re quite the mystery. When did you start a family? I didn’t know."

Chen Chuyu clearly understood what this fool meant. He only wanted to hit back at him. But he didn’t expect Du Haitao to be someone who had a wife too. That was truly surprising, since Du Haitao always gave off the vibe of being a bachelor. As far as Chen Chuyu knew, he had never seen his wife, so he was very curious.

"I accidentally came across it once. Let me show you a photo of President Du’s son. He’s adorably chubby, and our President Du is an exceptional father. He’s committed to a hands-on approach to education, so his wife and child are left in the countryside. President Du, you really are my idol. I also want to leave my child in the countryside."

Su Xuan said with an admiring look, while by this point, Du Haitao was already fuming. To be honest, he felt an overwhelming urge to strangle this guy. He couldn’t believe how this guy found out he had a kid.

In fact, Du Haitao did have a kid and a wife, though she was more like a discardable wife to him. To Du Haitao, his wife was meant to be abandoned, so he sent her to the countryside and didn’t bother with her at all while he stayed in the city posing as a romantic hero, claiming to be a golden bachelor.

When Su Xuan found out that Du Haitao was the owner of the Headhunting Company, he started to investigate him. This quickly uncovered a lot of Du Haitao’s scandalous stories. Truth be told, Su Xuan was speechless about Du Haitao’s drama. The guy truly was a hypocrite.

According to Su Xuan’s investigation, after Du Haitao graduated, his family suddenly faced bankruptcy. At his lowest point, he was almost begging for food. During those tough times, he met his destined wife, who was a factory worker. She gave her wages to Du Haitao to help him start a business.

But after Du Haitao found success, he sent his wife off to the countryside and forbade her from coming to him. Not many people knew about this, and after Su Xuan uncovered it, he was speechless about such a scumbag. In Su Xuan’s words: you can be a scumbag; you can be a philanderer, but don’t be such a hypocrite. When someone stands by you during poverty, and you discard them once you’re afloat, it’s truly hurtful.

"Wow, President Du, your son is so adorable. Is he already old enough to buy soy sauce?"

"Cough, cough..."

Du Haitao coughed dryly, his heart bleeding as he looked at Su Xuan, thinking, who exactly is this guy? Was he sent here specifically to expose me?

"Mr. Su, is your kid old enough to buy soy sauce?"

Du Haitao said softly, wondering what was up with this woman. Doesn’t she care at all? This woman doesn’t care that Su Xuan has a wife? She wasn’t acting like the person he knew.

"Not yet. Just learned to say ’Mommy and Daddy’?"

Su Xuan rubbed his nose and said with a smile. Ever since having a child, even though he couldn’t be in contact much, there was a warm feeling that rose within him, and having a child was really wonderful.

"Little Tianze can only call me ’Mommy’? Do you think he would call me ’Mommy’ if he saw me too?"

Looking at Su Xuan, Chen Chuyu said happily. Over the past few days, she had thought about many things. She absolutely couldn’t accept this situation and couldn’t share a husband with someone. But now, things were different. She believed there were many good men in the world who could become a perfect husband, committed to ’one life, one love’. However, she found herself especially dependent on Su Xuan, often thinking about him involuntarily, recalling how he saved her, his protectiveness, and developed a fondness for his patriotic spirit.

So she suddenly felt that except for his philandering, there wasn’t much to criticize. But she also knew that a person like Su Xuan would naturally attract more attention from women, just like how good things attract more competition. Plus, this guy wasn’t good at rejecting people or, rather, he was just philandering, so he ended up with more than one wife.

However, what Chen Chuyu admired about Su Xuan was that he didn’t hide it. At least he wasn’t as hypocritical as Du Haitao. After working at the Headhunting Company for so many years, she felt like she didn’t know him at all. His kid was already old enough to buy soy sauce, yet everyone still thought he was single, leaving a taste of intrigue in her mouth.
