Chapter 114: A Pretty Good Family Banquet

In the corridor, Ma Ling, who was eavesdropping on an apple, heard this, and just wanted to jump up, but someone patted her shoulder, she was so frightened that she almost screamed, patted her chest and looked back, her mother was standing behind her. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

Heidi shook her head at her.

Upstairs, hearing John's sneer, Vincent, who was playing with building blocks, stopped and looked at him seriously, "Grandpa, are you learning to laugh as a bad guy?"

Feng Yiping silently praised the little guy in his heart, worthy of being my son!

"That's right, grandpa saw that you were playing too seriously, and he didn't look at us, trying to attract your attention," Feng Yiping said with a smile, "You continue to play, just don't forget to interact with grandpa more,"

"Yes, you're having fun," John struggled to squeeze out a smile, and as soon as Vincent turned his head, his face was covered with black lines.

"John, if that's really what you said, I also think there's something wrong here, indeed, professionals should be able to inquire about these things," Feng Yiping groaned for a moment.

"However, water has roots and trees have roots, and there must be a reason why this is happening, I'll ask now," he dialed Mike's phone.

"Feng, when are you coming back?" As soon as the phone was connected, Mike didn't ask anything, but actually asked Feng Yiping directly.

"What's wrong?"

"Von, you must give Zeng Strom a call and ask them to launch the next version, you know, we promote the installation of Skype by users, and now we can say that all the mistakes that should be made have been made, many users are very dissatisfied, we have received too many complaints,"

"Because of Skype, user satisfaction with us has dropped significantly recently, and everyone wants to uninstall it,"

It turned out to be this, "Mike, we have to understand that no matter how good the software is, the version when it first goes on the market, there must be such and such small problems, you see, even Microsoft's operating system is not the same?"

"Looking at it from another angle, it's also a good thing that there are many complaints, which means that there are many users who are interested in this software, don't you say?"

"Then think about it, when it stabilizes, won't it improve the satisfaction of our users?"

"It's still going to be promoted, and this is the best way to check for the problems with this software, but we must do a good job of persuasion,"

"I know Feng, this is the case in the long run, but the trouble it has brought us in the near future...... ļ¼Œā€

Mike should be shaking his head over there, "Okay, I'll do everybody's job,"

"By the way, do you have anything to do with me?" He finally remembered now that the call was made by Feng Yiping.

"That's the case," Feng Yiping roughly introduced, put the phone on the table and pressed the speakerphone, "Why didn't the person you were looking for know that Ma Ling was pregnant at the time? Did he lie to us?"

"This," Mike smiled wryly over there, "he actually knows, and I know, he sent me some photos of Ma Ling wearing maternity clothes and basking in the sun in the backyard of the house,"

"He also inquired about Ma Ling, who was nearly half a year pregnant at the time,"

"It's just that I didn't know that Ma Ling flew to China to see you before the Spring Festival that year, and I thought that the last time you and she met was in Hollywood, so the time was not right,"

"So, I thought she had another boyfriend at the time, and that's exactly why she cut off contact with you, so in order not to make you sad, I took it upon myself to hide the news, saying that I didn't find her,"

"Later, I found out what happened, at that time you had already found Ma Ling and Vincent yourself, and I was never embarrassed to say this, Feng, I'm sorry,"

"It's okay," Feng Yiping hung up the phone, this thing is really a mistake.

Ma Ling went to China to see his own affairs before the Spring Festival in 01, and Feng Yiping naturally did not shout everywhere.

And he and Ma Ling relived their dream at the Four Seasons Hotel in Hollywood, which was in October 2000, if you count from that time, Ma Ling's pregnancy time is obviously not right.

So it's not unreasonable for Mike to do it on his own.

Generally speaking, Mike's speculation is also tenable, Ma Ling and Feng Yiping are just from one-night stands to a few nightstands, after Feng Yiping returned to China, Ma Ling quickly had a new boyfriend, and he accidentally got pregnant, so he wanted to say goodbye to the past completely, and took the initiative to cut off contact with people like Feng Yiping.

But Feng Yiping still looked a little obsessed with her, so why let him know such a painful truth?

John's mouth opened several times at this point, and finally he had nothing to say.

Yes, just like Feng Yiping said, although he still can't forgive, he really doesn't have the ability to change the status quo without changing.

Let him break up with his girlfriend who has now given birth to a daughter for him, and be responsible for his own daughter? This is too selfish and impersonal, and he really can't say it.

"Alas," he shook his head and sighed, speaking of which, they are also responsible as parents, and they have raised their daughters to have a strong temperament since she was a child.

If she had told Feng Yiping as soon as she was pregnant after she was confirmed, it would not have been the ending she is now.

Of course, he will definitely not forgive Feng Yiping for this reason, at most he understands a little.

"So, what are you going to do with Ma Ling and the child?" John looked at Feng Yiping, "Do you plan to go on like this forever?"

"One thing I can assure you and Heidi is that although I may not be able to give Marling and Vincent a complete family, I have the ability and the will to ensure that they can live an easy and happy life,"

"Although I didn't say it in front of Ma Ling, I love her, I love Vincent, and I'm willing to pay for them,"

"If Ma Ling meets someone who makes her heart flutter in the future, I promise that I will never stop her from pursuing her own happy life, I will still care about them as always, take care of them, and make sure that they come and go as soon as they are called,"

Feng Yiping said this beautifully.

It's just that he knows that the possibility of this happening is relatively small, the so-called once the sea is difficult to water, except that Wushan is not a cloud, he really doesn't believe that after having himself, Ma Ling will also take a fancy to another guy.

However, John was still very satisfied with his statement, and he couldn't guarantee that he could do Feng Yiping's point.

And as a businessman, he still believes that what Feng Yiping said is not true, and he doesn't want him to make such a big career at a young age.

At the same time, as both a man and a businessman, he also understands that with Feng Yiping's current achievements and status, he will not lack women, and there are many beautiful women.

For Ma Ling, he was able to be so attentive before, and appointed a private detective to investigate her whereabouts, which shows that he really has her in his heart.

John, who knew these reasons, felt a little more comfortable now, and it was not all awkward to see Feng Yiping, but he still didn't give him a good look.

"Did you tell your family about Marling and Vincent?"

"When my first company went public last year, Ma Ling took Vincent to New York and met my grandfather,"

"My parents, I don't know yet, I'm still looking for the right opportunity, but don't worry, after they know, they will like Vincent very much,"

"Why don't you tell them now?" asked John.

"I don't want them to be embarrassed and worried, because my parents must want me to be responsible for Marling and Vincent,"

Looking at the young man in the East in front of him, John finally felt that he was a little pleasing to the eye.

Although as a father, he is very dissatisfied with the current situation, but as a man, he can somewhat understand some of Feng Yiping's difficulties.

"Take a sip of tea," he actually added tea to Feng Yiping for the first time, "No matter what, I still hope you can spend more time with Vincent, my grandson, deserves a perfect childhood,"

"Yes, that's what I thought, I'll try. ā€

…………

In the corridor, Heidi looked at her daughter with red circles under her eyes, and also sighed a little that her daughter was only one step away from a happy day.

"Hollywood, New York, how much are you hiding from us?"

"Mom," Ma Ling gave her a blank look.

"Okay, okay, I don't ask, you go to touch up your makeup, I'll call them to dinner,"

…………

After taking the initiative to talk so much, at lunch, John was no longer cold to Feng Yiping, and he could clink glasses with him, and occasionally show a smile.

Seeing this gratifying change, Heidi and Ma Ling, mother and daughter, were very happy.

In addition, there is a small pistachio Vincent in the middle, so the atmosphere of this family banquet is not bad.

"Feng, I'll give you a glass," Heidi raised her glass suddenly, "John has that temper, in fact, he wants to say thank you to you," she glanced at her husband.

Hearing her say this, John also raised his glass, "You've been doing well the last few times, and besides, thank you,"

"No, I should be thanking you for your trust," Feng Yiping said, "There are not many people who believe in me as unconditionally as you,"

After John raised his glass for a while, he didn't make any further moves, but after listening to Feng Yiping's words, he was still very useful, this kid can at least chat!

"Of course, I have to thank you," Heidi said, "in terms of stocks, we have been holding them for a long time, and the returns are average, and the last few transactions related to you have been the highest return on investment in all our years,"

"If it is a long-term holding, I suggest that you can still concentrate your funds on some high-tech companies, Apple is a good choice, Amazon I am also very optimistic, as well as Oracle, as well as its competitor SAP, and of course, Google, which is preparing to go public, is also a good choice in the future,"

Feng Yiping believes that they are very interested in listening to their analysis in this regard.

"If you look at it from a global perspective, some high-tech companies that will be listed in China in the future are also worthy of long-term investment,"

"What about Microsoft, aren't you optimistic?" John couldn't help but ask.

"We have quite a few shares in Microsoft," Heidi added.

"When did you buy it?" Feng Yiping asked.

"Mainly in the mid-90s,"

"That's a good harvest so far, but I still think it's not too economical to hold Microsoft shares for a long time in the future. ā€

Microsoft's stock price is now close to $28, while at the time of Feng Yiping's rebirth, it was less than $50, that is, the increase was very limited.

But for investors who bought Microsoft shares in the early days, the returns are still very good, because Microsoft has carried out many stock splits, and most of them are 10 shares for 10 shares, and a few times it is 10 shares for 5 shares, and the one bought in the 90s has now become at least a dozen shares.

"Thank you for your opinion, I think we can plan well, Apple's is really good," Ma Ling's role model with a high return on investment in Apple seems to be good.

…………

Eating and playing dessert, to Feng Yiping's surprise, the lunch didn't seem to be over yet, Heidi brought two boxes and solemnly put them on the table, Feng Yiping immediately noticed that Ma Ling was a little excited.

"This is one of the dishes your grandparents left behind," Heidi opened the first box, which contained a set of silver shiny cutlery, "John and I both think it's time to give you a set,"

"And this," Heidi opened the smaller box, Feng Yiping saw that it was full of colorful cards full of words, "This is your great-grandmother, grandmother's recipe, of course, and mine, we hope you can pass these on,"

"Mom," Ma Ling's voice was a little choked.

Feng Yiping, who knows a little about this situation, realizes that he is witnessing a inheritance in a Western family.

In a country like the United States, where there is no aristocracy, they don't have those things decorated with family crests to pass on, except for some jewelry, most families' blood inheritance is generally related to the kitchen, such as tableware, such as the recipes of the elders, which is actually more real.

Feng Yiping patted Ma Ling on the shoulder and held her hand, Heidi and John chose to give these things to Ma Ling at this time, in fact, to a certain extent, they recognized her relationship with Feng Yiping.

Tableware and recipes are actually equivalent to dowry in the traditional sense.

…………

In Shanghai, in the clubhouse, Ma Wenhui, who wanted to show off in front of his companions, didn't expect to hear the arrogant and domineering warning from Feng Yiping, and he felt that he had lost face for the second time today.

Shaking his head, looking at the different looks in the banquet, he slapped the table hard, "When am I scared?" (to be continued.) )
