Ru Jiali pointed to herself in disbelief: "You mean me?"

Xiaohua nodded with amusement: "That's right, who else could it be but you?"

"Can I do it?" Ru Jiali began to doubt herself.

During this time, she followed Xiaohua around, which was tiring but also fulfilling and rewarding. In fact, she admired Xiaohua for being outspoken and bold, and deep down, she wanted to become like Xiaohua, feeling that such a life would be more meaningful.

But when it came to actually joining in, she hesitated. It wasn't that she didn't want to, but she was afraid that she wouldn't be up to the task and would only hold Xiaohua back.

"Why not?" Xiaohua retorted.

She still seemed hesitant and lacked confidence.

Xiaohua encouraged her again, "If I can do it, I believe you can too, because we both got into Shanghai Jiao Tong University, which proves that we are equally smart."

Ru Jiali was amused by Xiao Hua.

"As long as you don't mind me, I will try my best to keep up with you, Sister Xiaohua."

Xiao Hua humbly replied, "No, no, no, we're progressing together. I'm not much better than you. We support each other and improve together."

Since she brought Ru Jiali in as her business partner, she should definitely give her shares. Jiali said she didn't want any, and that she would just wait until the training school made money and then pay her a salary.

But Xiaohua isn't that kind of person. Since she brought Jiali in, she genuinely treated her as a business partner. She can't just let her do the work without giving her a share of the profits.

"Jiali, I plan to find two or three like-minded girlfriends to run this school together. I've divided the shares like this: I'm undoubtedly the largest shareholder, holding 50%, my investor, Mr. Zhou Musheng, holds 10%, and of the remaining 40%, I'll give you 20%. I'd also like to bring in another person for the remaining 20%. With more people, we can divide the work, making things easier for everyone. There's strength in numbers!"

Jiali nodded in understanding: "Sister Xiaohua, who did you find for the remaining person?"

Xiaohua shook her head: "I haven't met her yet. If I do, and she's interested, I'll bring her into the picture."

When it comes to business partners, Xiaohua's first choice is a girl. It's not that she rejects or dislikes men. She greatly admires and likes Zhou Musheng. If it weren't for Zhou Musheng's appreciation of her, she wouldn't have had the resources to start a business.

It's just that meeting a man like Zhou Musheng has already used up most of her luck.

She felt she wouldn't encounter another Zhou Musheng. Therefore, to ensure a smoother and less fraught collaboration in their business venture, she preferred that women join the project.

She felt that girls were more thoughtful and easier to work with, and that they were also more responsible and less likely to shirk their duties at work.

In her past life, she was a programmer. There were more men than women in the office. The girls often helped each other and there was no backstabbing or power struggles. On the contrary, the male colleagues were very fond of vying for power, flattering the leaders, and being jealous of men and women who were more outstanding than themselves.

They also frequently smear female colleagues who are more outstanding than them, and some pretty female colleagues, when they can't get the girls they want, they like to spread rumors about them, which is extremely bad behavior.

I didn't do as much work as my female colleagues.

Some unpleasant experiences in her past life may have given her a certain prejudice, making her think that places with more girls are perhaps better.

After Jiali joined the team, Xiaohua entrusted her with the important task of finding a suitable language teacher, based on her personal abilities and family connections.

She herself was focused on the renovation.

The renovation was a bottomless pit, far exceeding Xiaohua's expectations. The one million yuan given by Zhou Musheng was quickly spent on various renovation materials, with over ten thousand yuan going out in no time.

It hurts so much to use up all that little flower.

Zhou Musheng told her that if she wanted to set up a large-scale and high-quality training school, 100 W would not be enough.

So Zhou Musheng took the initiative to give Xiaohua another million yuan, telling her that since she planned to start a school, she should do it properly, lest it turn out to be neither a proper school nor a proper school. Therefore, she shouldn't be afraid to spend money in the early stages.

Xiaohua is extremely grateful for this!

Recently, He Yan has been taking out all the good food in his house and cooking it for Xiao Hua. Su Qin felt increasingly uncomfortable watching this. The good son she raised has never served her for a single day, but he is busy cooking for Ye Xiao Hua every day.

Su Qin's petty jealousy got the better of her.

She secretly followed He Yan and found out where Ye Xiaohua lived. She wanted to see Ye Xiaohua, not that she forbade Ye Xiaohua from being with her son, but she no longer had that right. It seemed that she never had that right, neither now nor in the past.

Seeing Ye Xiaohua's current appearance, she thought it was no wonder that her precious son was now so infatuated with her that he seemed to have lost his soul.

Sure enough, all men are the same. Even her own son, she had to say, is a stinking man who lusts after women.

He doesn't even care about his own mother because of this little bit of color.

As a mother-in-law, she just wanted to act like one and give Xiaohua pointers. As a woman and a wife, how could she let her husband cook for her and serve her?

Since she couldn't change the fact that Xiaohua was going to marry into the He family, she would try her best to reform Xiaohua so that she would be worthy of being the daughter-in-law of the He family and the wife of He Yan.

To avoid bringing shame to He Yan and the He family when we go out together.

When Ye Xiaohua went downstairs to throw out the trash, she ran into Ms. Su Qin, He Yan's biological mother!

Her immediate thought was that no one visits a temple without a reason, and this woman's presence here was definitely not just a casual stroll from the south of the city to the north.

This woman is definitely here to see me.

As she expected, Ms. Su Qin came with ill intentions, saying, "How come you don't even greet your elders? Is this how your parents raised you?"

Xiao Hua, with her hands in her pockets and looking nonchalant, recalled how three years ago she had seen her and her daughter just out of postpartum confinement and yet still managed to cruelly kick them out of the He family.

Unable to resist a sarcastic remark: "Whose elder are you? Mine? Heh~"

“I am your mother-in-law, your husband’s mother, and this is how you treat me.”

Su Qin's voice became sharp with anger; she was a woman from Jiangnan who usually spoke in a gentle and soft voice.

"Excuse me, ma'am, you've mistaken me for someone else. I don't have a husband, so where would I get a mother-in-law?"

Xiao Hua turned and left, saying that you shouldn't argue or make a scene with people you dislike, but just ignore them and despise them, which will drive them crazy.

Especially when dealing with a noblewoman like Su Qin who always considered herself superior.

"Ye Xiaohua, come back here! I haven't finished speaking yet."

Seeing that Xiao Hua didn't take her seriously at all, Su Qin angrily shouted at her from behind.

Xiaohua turned around and said in a very ordinary tone, "Madam, this is a residential area. Please don't make loud noises. Have some manners. Didn't your parents teach you not to make loud noises in public?"
