Chapter 231 - Mending Gaps (3)

"Father, we can always make amendments in our 'Letter for Directors' and increase the share base," suggested Yang Xinyu, although he knew it wouldn't be easy.

"That is one of the ways but I would like Wu Lina to start a new entertainment company under our banner. We will help her with all the money and infrastructure. As far as expertise is concerned, I have already talked to the leading people in the industry. You have to let me know as soon as you are ready so that I may call for a meeting. Personally, I would like you to start this as soon as possible," the Chairman proposed.

"But father I don't know anything about entertainment," said Wu Lina totally shocked at his proposal.

"Have you seen any movies Wu Lina?"

"Yes father, plenty!"

"In that case you can start. Don't worry. We are there with you!"

Yang Xinyu couldn't help but laugh at his father's plan.

Under the façade that Wu Lina will be starting a new entertainment company, on the other side both the father and the son will try to take those shares back from the new owner slowly. But for now they have to wait and watch as to who was is new owner.

Mrs. Jiao came to the living room and announced that dinner was laid on the table. All of them went to have the dinner.

Over dinner the Chairman said, "The Yang mansion looks desolate. Why don't both of you come over there and stay with me?"

Yang Xinyu became uncomfortable, as it reminded him of his mother and all that she had done to keep him apart from Wu Lina. He shuddered. Wu Lina noticed it and said, "Father, moving there would be such an issue for me in this condition. Is it okay if we come there once in a while? But it would be better if you would come and stay with us here at Sapphire bungalow. The gardens in the east are beautiful during sunrise."

The Chairman beamed and said, "Oh! I would love to!" Then all of a sudden he remembered and he became sad.

"What happened father?" asked Wu Lina.

"I can't come and stay with you because I have been asked to move to a government allotted accommodation after becoming the mayor of the city," said the Chairman wondering when he would actually move to that house.

"That's great father!" said Wu Lina with excitement. "And that also reminds me, what about our treat?" she added while adding more shelled scallops in his bowl.

The Chairman smiled and answered slyly, "Soon dear child, soon…"

"…"

Yang Xinyu knew his father. Getting a treat from him until he wanted to give was a difficult task. He remembered his mother and asked about her wellbeing.

"She is doing fine Yang Xinyu. If you like you can go and visit her at the hospital but I suggest you don't since she doesn't respond positively to your name and is still filled with bitterness towards you and Wu Lina…" said the Chairman with a sullen expression.

"It's okay father. I am very happy right now and I don't want to disturb my mental peace," replied Yang Xinyu looking at Wu Lina and holding her hand below the table. Wu Lina smiled at him reassuringly.

After dinner was over they went out for a stroll in the garden, and later the Chairman left.

When Yang Xinyu and Wu Lina were left alone, they watched TV for sometime and then Wu Lina felt exhausted. He wanted to discuss with her about Yan Xiaojun. While Wu Lina was preparing to sleep, he asked her gently, "Lina, should we go to Yan Xiaojun's party?"

"Xinyu, I don't want to go, but it is not right on our part if we don't go. After all he had risked his life, not to mention his wife's and Ivan's life also for us. I think I will be forever indebted to him and we must show our respect to his gesture. Also, we have all moved on. With Ivan on his side, he doesn't have space for anyone else in his beautiful life. So yes, we should go," said Wu Lina firmly.

Yang Xinyu nodded. He looked forlorn. He curled her in his arms and closed his eyes. After a while he spoke, "Okay…"

"Oh! One more thing," said Yang Xinyu as he jumped up on the bed.

Wu Lina who was about to sleep looked at him sleepily and said, "Xinyu, let's talk tomorrow. I am too sleepy."

"No! This is very important. This is urgent Wu Lina," he said tugging her hands.

"What?" she retorted.

"When can we have sex? I mean your first trimester will soon get over. Can we have it now?" he asked naively.

Wu Lina slapped his arms as her face turned red. "How would I know? And no more coming in me!"

"What? But I researched it on the Internet. We can have it!" he said trying to convince her.
