Sure enough, Secretary An flipped through the pages rapidly: "January 18th."

Chen Rou was also someone who was used to keeping accounts. After thinking about it, she understood what was going on and said, "Thank you for helping Jianmei, oh no, Xiaojuanzi, prepare a few clothes. Once the house is found, I will let you know to help her move."

Secretary An personally opened the car door, waiting until the boss's wife got in before closing the door: "Goodbye, Third Wife!"

...

Tomorrow, the Nie family will be holding the annual meeting at Nie's International. The year is over, and they will be hosting a banquet for clients, relatives, friends, and shareholders.

Nie Han was handpicked by Nie Zhao and accompanied Uncle Ming and Mrs. Dai, the hotel's general manager, throughout the event, busy with the reception.

It's quite strange, actually Nie Jiajun never goes home even during holidays, he always stays in Singapore. But this time his New Year holiday is about to end, and with school starting soon, he's still at home.

Chen Rou was away a few days ago and needed to rest after returning. Although she went up the mountain with her brothers yesterday, they didn't have a deep conversation. When she got home today, she heard the sound of keyboards clattering and cursing as soon as she went upstairs. When she went downstairs, she saw the two brothers, Nie Jiayu and Nie Jiajun, huddled on the sofa, playing games.

When there are no external enemies, brothers are the greatest enemies.

On the enormous TV set, the only one of its kind in Hong Kong, the two of them were holding game controllers, playing "Mario." Nie Jiayu cursed Nie Jiajun, saying he had Parkinson's disease and could only shake his hands and couldn't play games. Nie Jiajun cursed Nie Jiayu, saying he was possessed by a zombie and couldn't even move his fingers. After arguing for a while, they would kick each other and punch each other.

Even children from the richest family are all the same in private.

Chen Rou took a large stack of newspapers from Nie Rong, wanting to take a closer look at the news about the South China Sea written by Nie Yao. Because he was taking a third-party perspective, and he had received a good education since childhood and had a broad vision, the fact that various military newspapers were willing to publish his reports proved that they were detailed. She wanted to learn from his work.

They were arguing so loudly that they could be heard up to the third floor. Chen Rou asked a question that all parents ask their children: "Have you finished your homework?"

But when Nie Jiajun and his brother looked up, they exclaimed, "Xi Niang?"

They tossed aside their game controllers and exclaimed in unison, "Let's go up the mountain and go shooting!"

Their shooting was like the Japanese soldiers sneaking into a village in the dark, firing blindly.

Although they were good at cooking, they especially liked going to the stove.

The main focus is on Chen Rou's moving target shooting and 360-degree rotating target shooting.

Especially her ability to hit the bullseye every time while shooting at a moving target with the spinning wheel, is thrilling and exciting. In the future, they might be able to post 20 WeChat Moments updates a day.

Chen Rou isn't a clown. She's practicing shooting to maintain her combat effectiveness, not for them to see. So, she'll ask the same question every parent asks their child: "Why don't you go out and play with your friends? Why are you hiding at home playing video games?"

Nie Jiajun shrugged: "Little sister, you're so strange."

Nie Jiayu also said, "You used to be so afraid that we would make friends. We had to get your permission to go out and play with friends. Now that we don't have any friends, you're starting to kick us out. But friends are something you can have or not have as you please."

Nie Jiayu: Yes, for more than a year, to prevent him from being kidnapped or assassinated, Nie Zhao strictly forbade him from going out and wandering around. He really had no friends. But Chen Rou looked at Nie Jiajun: "Where is your good friend Guo Fuzheng? Why don't you go play with him?"

Upon hearing this, Nie Jiajun first looked at Nie Jiayu, who immediately smiled and said, "Xiniang, can you believe it? He transferred schools."

Chen Rou asked, "Where did you turn?"

Nie Jiajun said, "He is currently in the same class as Bao Yugang at Hong Kong University, and it is said that he is still pursuing Bao Yuyan."

Nie Jiayu said, "Bao Yuyan didn't actually like him, but according to Mrs. Bao, he came from a revolutionary background and was a marriage prospect."

The Bao family is in the long-distance shipping business, so they have always been known as shipping magnates.

The Nie family also holds shares in the real estate and jewelry companies. Shipping was booming a few years ago, but the family invested in some real estate in Japan, and coincidentally, the real estate bubble in Japan burst this year.

His family's working capital must be heavily tied up.

Although the two brothers only chatted casually for a few minutes, Chen Rou roughly guessed that Guo Xiaobai, the boss, wanted to form a marriage alliance with the Bao family. After all, the other party was a well-established wealthy family in Hong Kong with extensive connections. As a port for trade between the West and Asia, Hong Kong's position, especially in the shipping industry, would remain irreplaceable, even by Singapore, for at least the next two or three decades.

The Guo family seems to be quite good at boasting and shaping their image.

If Guo Fuzheng were an ordinary person, with his crooked appearance, what decent family would want him?

But to say he has a "red" background is another matter entirely.

Even Nie Rong planned to visit the mainland, and the Bao family naturally wanted to do business there as well. But having a "red" background would make doing business much easier for them than for the Nie family.

In Hong Kong's business world, everyone is both like-minded and competitive; that's just how the business ecosystem works.

But Chen Rou still didn't quite understand, and she was also a bit of a fisherman, so she smiled and said, "Since Guo Fuzheng has transferred to Hong Kong to study and will live there permanently, shouldn't you all hang out together?"

Nie Jiajun waved his hand: "I can't play this game."

Nie Jiayu said directly, "We don't care."

Chen Rou roughly guessed that Guo Fuzheng and his current group of friends would probably go to the topless nightclub in Victoria Harbour, but Nie Zhao was strict, so the two kids didn't dare to go, and of course they couldn't hang out with him.

Teenagers are really hard to manage. If you let them go out to play, they're bound to go astray.

But if I don't go out and just stay home playing video games all day, my eyes will go blind.
