The Good Dad System (Arc 8) Chapter 66.1: After the Daughter Married Into a Wealthy Family (37)
The economic situation is changing rapidly. At this time, the west wind prevails over the east wind, and at that time, the east wind prevails over the west wind. No one can predict what the world will be like in the next moment. After all, no one can be happy forever, and no flower can stay in bloom forever.
Pei’s Restaurant is already a well-known internet-famous food restaurant in the CBD. It has been frequently featured in various food self-media inventory articles. There is also a well-known “internet celebrity anchor” in charge here. Even tourists who come to City B don’t forget to come here to check in.
“Everyone, look here. Today I’m going to make you a simple appetizer platter, cold jellyfish…” The door of the restaurant hasn’t opened yet, and the sign saying “closed” is particularly eye-catching, but as long as you are inside, you can hear the familiar male voice that rings out on time every day.
In the past few years, Pei Naochun’s reputation has grown. Due to the bad economic situation, people’s desire to get rich has become particularly urgent. Many myths of stock experts on the Internet have been shattered, but he is the only one who is not affected at all.
Netizens jokingly described it as: “Follow Lao Pei and you will have food to eat.” This is not an exaggeration. Lao Pei’s live broadcast room is the same as always. He analyzes several stocks every day and occasionally shows the audience the recent account records. As long as the fans follow closely, they can basically make a small profit and rarely lose money. Of course, it is a bit difficult to make a fortune overnight like winning the lottery.
Pei Naochun moved quickly, already preparing his secret recipe. He muttered to himself, “Well, it’s early today. I need to go deliver lunch to my daughter and then come back to open the shop. She’s working overtime at noon and doesn’t get a break.”
[Watching from the front row, drooling with envy. My dad made me a stir-fried bitter melon and squid dish last night, and it was incredible :). Other people’s dads and my dad.]
[Only in the live broadcast room can you have this kind of opportunity to see a billionaire cook.]
The commentary in the comments has a history. Fans often joke about it, saying Pei Naochun is the richest food livestreamer and the last professional food streamer to trade stocks. When gathering friends to watch his livestreams, they’ll occasionally toss out the catchphrase: “Where else can you see a millionaire cook for you?” and hear firsthand stock market analysis? Don’t miss this opportunity! Come to Lao Pei’s livestream now!
[Yesterday I saw an interview with Lao Pei’s daughter on the front page of Caijing. She was so beautiful and elegant.]
[I saw it too! I immediately copied it to slap in the face those keyboard warriors who think divorced women have no good life and only rely on their husbands! Excellent people are excellent everywhere, and rats in the gutter are rats everywhere!]
“Hey, you guys saw it too? My daughter is pretty, right?” Pei Naochun seemed to have his own recognition radar, and he saw at a glance the comments of netizens praising Pei Daijun, “Now there are a lot of headhunting companies trying to poach my daughter! It’s just that she doesn’t like to go, and I respect her idea.” When this was mentioned, the barrage of comments also started the discussion.
[By the way, does anyone think Old Pei’s daughter is a natural born lucky charm? Look, when she was still the wife of a certain scumbag, his group was the leading company in China. Now she’s the Vice President of Xinghao Group. Xinghao has been steadily rising in recent years. Since the year before last, it’s been firmly at the top of the industry!]
[Yes! Raise your hand! The fortune-telling blogger I follow analyzed her and said her facial features are a perfect combination of good fortune and luck! Anyone who is with her will be blessed with great luck!]
[Can you please stop being so superstitious?! The bottom line is, Old Pei’s daughter is brilliant! Capable! I’ve seen industry insiders say she’s incredibly capable at expanding the market. As soon as she arrived at Xinghao Group, she brought in a ton of business.]
[I only think of that divorce storm back then, and that famous scumbag, Mr. Sheng. He even beat up his father-in-law and insisted on getting a divorce. I wonder if he regrets it now? A true case of picking up sesame seeds and losing watermelons. I guess the president of Xinghao Group should thank him. If he hadn’t given up such a wonderful wife, Tiansheng might have continued to lord it over others for a while.]

The luxuriously decorated room now seemed dim and depressing. The solid-colored thick cloth blackout curtains and the decorative lace curtains were all drawn, not letting in any of the bright sunlight outside. The four-poster bed looked soft and restrictive, with the quilt on it messy and a bulge. A middle-aged man in suit pants and a shirt was lying on it at an angle, with his socks on and his hair messy.
“Boss, it’s time to get up.” Someone was knocking on the door. It was the nanny hired by the family.
“Yeah.” Sheng Junhao responded in a hoarse voice and got up in a daze. The aftereffects of the hangover and headache were still there, making him sit there in a daze, unable to calm down. Last night, he went to entertain several partners. One of the company’s major projects had funding problems, and in order to avoid collapse, they had to introduce partners. As a result, the profits were cut very low. It can be said that he had been busy for half a year, but it was all for nothing. Otherwise, the whole project would fail.
As soon as he picked up his phone, there was already a row of messages on it, which made the veins on his forehead throb. He didn’t want to look at it for a long time. He sat on the edge of the bed with a dejected look on his face. He looked haggard to anyone who saw him. But no matter how annoyed he was or how much he didn’t want to pay attention, he had to reply to all the messages in the end.
Sheng Junhao suppressed his impatience and flipped through the pages one by one, but his mood grew worse the more he read.
How many years has it been? Just over five years! Tiansheng Group, which had been soaring and flourishing five years ago, is now facing a slump, plagued by problems everywhere. The company is on a downward spiral, with year-end bonuses still to be paid out. Many employees are complaining, and the HR department is already overwhelmed with resignation applications.
What could he do? He could do nothing.
