Chapter 27 Sisters' Quarrel

"Heh, are you just bored and telling me this? Never mind, you can leave now." Xu Zhaoming dismissed Xiao Ke.

The next day arrived quickly, and Xu Zhaoyue and Xu Zhaoming met in the conference room. There were only the two of them there. "Hey, big sister, you've just arrived at the company and you're already having a meeting? Do you even understand what's going on?" Xu Zhaoming mocked as soon as she arrived.

Xu Zhaoyue didn't want to pay attention to her. "Whether I understand or not is secondary. What's important is when you go to school and start studying, isn't it?" Her words hit the nail on the head.

Xu Zhaoming immediately fell silent, not saying a word throughout the entire meeting, nor listening to anyone else. His mind was filled with questions about why Xu Zhaoyue knew about what happened in his villa.

It wasn't until Xu Zhaoyue received applause from everyone that Xu Zhaoming came to her senses. She could only clap along. After the meeting, Xu Guangcai asked the two of them to stay behind.

"Yueyue, Manager Yuan just said that you solved a big problem for them as soon as you arrived. That's great! You've learned a lot during your year away. That's really good." Xu Guangcai praised Xu Zhaoyue first.

Xu Zhaoyue was naturally happy, but she didn't show it. She remained calm on the surface. "Dad, this is what I should do. No matter how much I learn, I have to apply it to the company."

“Mingming, you should learn more from your sister. You were daydreaming the whole time during the meeting. I handed over a department to you, and Manager Fang listens to everything you say. Tell me, what have you been doing?” Xu Guangcai’s tone toward Xu Zhaoming was not very friendly.

Xu Zhaoming wanted to argue but couldn't think of a reason for a moment, so he could only admit his mistake, "Dad, I was wrong."

The expertly delivered apology left Xu Guangcai with no room to maneuver. He choked for a moment and didn't continue his accusations. "It's not enough to just admit your mistake. You need to think about what you should and shouldn't do."

"I know. Oh, right, I invited reporters to interview me yesterday to promote the Xu family's anniversary celebration, but they were thrown out by my eldest sister's subordinates as soon as they arrived, and I had to wait a long time to find out about it." Xu Zhaoming had to get his revenge.

Xu Guangcai, unaware of this, also looked at Xu Zhaoyue. Xu Zhaoyue smiled and said, "Don't you want to investigate the other party's background? You only care that he's a foreigner and has prestige? He barged into the second floor as soon as he came in and kept insulting traditional Chinese medicine."

"This is the person you invited? If so, I'm really curious, what have you been doing all year?" Xu Zhaoyue showed no respect for Xu Zhaoming, her words extremely sarcastic.

Xu Zhaoming was embarrassed. "What do you mean? Do I need to report to you what I do?"

"Alright, alright, you don't need to report to me, but you have to live up to the expectations of the team you're in charge of." Compared to Xu Zhaoming's anger, Xu Zhaoyue seemed calm and collected, displaying the demeanor of an older sister.

Just as Xu Zhaoming was about to say something, Xu Guangcai stopped them both, "What are you two arguing about? Never mind, you two go about your business." Xu Zhaoyue and Xu Zhaoming exchanged a glance, then got up and left in tacit agreement.

However, they weren't idle with their words, still exchanging sarcastic remarks. "Big sister, just knowing how to do experiments isn't enough. You should think about how Xu's hospital is going to celebrate its anniversary. Oh, you don't need to think about it. Dad asked me to do this. You won't be angry, will you?" Xu Zhaoming just wanted to provoke her. All the offices in the corridor were open.

Xu Zhaoyue looked at her second sister, who was a little slow on the uptake. She wondered if the abortion pills from back then had damaged her brain. In any case, she was both stupid and wicked. "Since Dad entrusted her to you, he must trust your abilities. I'm also looking forward to your performance."

"By the way, if you want foreigners to interview you, you should learn a foreign language. At least you'll be able to tell when someone is criticizing you, and you won't mistake sarcasm for praise." Xu Zhaoyue could be quite blunt.

Seeing that she didn't care about that, Xu Zhaoming changed the subject, "Our department will be launching a new product, sister, your department must keep up, don't embarrass the Xu family."

When Xu Zhaoyue heard her mention the Xu family, she found it particularly grating. "Do you really want me to make a mistake?" This was a valid question, as Xu Zhaoming certainly thought so, but she couldn't say it aloud.

"Of course not, how could I possibly hope you make a mistake? Why do you always have such thoughts?" Xu Zhaoming pretended to be innocent.

Xu Zhaoyue nodded. "You definitely didn't think that way. I was just asking casually. Don't take it too seriously. By the way, speaking of mistakes, you've never even been inside a lab, so you probably can't tell if there's a problem with the experimental results."

"You still need to study more. Your teachers say you might not graduate, so you need to hurry up and not try to do both at the same time. Only when you've mastered your skills can you be more responsible to the department."

"You have to live up to your subordinates' efforts. No need to see me off. Spend your time on self-improvement. I'm leaving now." Xu Zhaoyue finished speaking and went downstairs with light steps without giving her a chance to react.

Xu Zhaoming stood there, and could even hear the laughter coming from inside the office. She quickly ran back to her own office.

After Xu Zhaoyue returned to the second floor, she saw the three of them standing at the door from a distance. "Miss, the office is ready." Yue Lanxing opened the door, and the entire office was brightly lit.

"Alright, all three of you come in." Xu Zhaoyue led the three of them into the house, then sat down in a chair and watched them stand in front of her.

Xu Zhaoyue was backlit and didn't feel the glare. The three of them wanted to look up at the young lady, but the sunlight shone back on them, so they could only lower their heads. Only Yue Lanxing, who was standing a little further inside, was unaffected.

In Yue Lanxing's eyes, the young lady was a radiant presence. Xu Zhaoyue's gaze swept over them and met Yue Lanxing's eyes, but she didn't ask Yue Lanxing any questions. Instead, she looked at Xue Huzi.
