Chapter 327 Verbal Battle

Shen Xuewei returned to school from outside the train station, packed her things, and boarded a plane back to Italy.

In the past six months, she has not returned to Italy frequently in order to develop cloud computing.

However, now that YunCai's development has stabilized and the company has enough manpower, even if she is needed, she only needs to give remote instructions.

Aside from Platinum Joy Skin Research Institute, YunCai Apparel is her first real investment in this life. Since it's in the e-commerce industry she worked in in her previous life, she naturally pays close attention to the development of YunCai Apparel.

Now that the company is on the right track, she doesn't want to devote most of her energy to it.

After Shen Xuewei modeled about ten outfits again, she told Chu Liangxiu that she would never model again.

Her time shouldn't be wasted on things like this.

Even though the company is doing well now, Chu Liangxiu is still a bit stingy.

Seeing that Shen Xuewei spoke these words with a seemingly casual expression but in fact with a tone of certainty, one knew that there was no room for negotiation.

She smiled and agreed. For subsequent new product launches, in addition to Xu Yue, whom Shen Xuewei had designated, other suitable candidates were also found for the petite models.

Having escaped the tedious work at the company, Shen Xuewei was able to stay in Italy and enjoy a proper Spring Festival.

Grandpa Chen's stroke has not improved, and he can only lie in bed all day.

Occasionally, when the sun is shining, Shen Xuewei will push him in his wheelchair and take a walk with her grandmother in the garden downstairs.

Ever since my grandfather suffered a stroke, my grandmother has been depressed and gloomy all the time.

Her children are all busy with their own lives, but they try to visit her whenever they have a spare moment.

Besides Chen Fangqiu, who is still in prison, even Chen Fangmin, who is far away in Jinshi, finally returned once during this period.

That was the happiest time for Grandma in a long time.

If the mother and daughter stay together, they might have another conflict.

Shen Xuewei didn't want to spoil her grandmother's fun, so when Chen Fangmin came over, she deliberately avoided her and stayed at school instead of returning to Yizhou City.

Normally, Shen Xuewei juggles her career and studies, and even when she's very busy, she always makes sure to spend at least two days a month coming back to visit her elderly parents.

On the third day of the Lunar New Year, Chen Fangli's family, Chen Fangyang's family, as well as Chen Fanglan and Shen Xuewei, all stayed at home with Chen's maternal grandfather and Xi's maternal grandmother to celebrate the New Year.

Chu De'an and Chu De'xi followed closely beside Shen Xuewei, occasionally bickering and arguing.

With a loud "Wow!" Chu Dexi charged at Chu De'an like a little calf, only to be easily subdued by Chu De'an. What followed was a war of words.

However, after less than two rounds of verbal sparring, Chu Dexi was once again suppressed by Chu De'an.

Chen Fangyang carried his maternal grandfather from the bed to the sofa. Looking at the lively room full of people, the gloom dissipated considerably.

The two brothers were so engrossed in their fight that they had no time to bother Shen Xuewei.

Relieved to be free, Shen Xuewei thought of helping out in the kitchen.

Chen Fangli and Grandma Xi were busy preparing a meal for the whole family in the kitchen when they saw Shen Xuewei come in. They thought she was getting in the way and chased her out.

Shen Xuewei looked around and noticed Chen Fanglan and Zhao Fang'er talking on the balcony, so she went to the balcony as well.

The two smiled when they saw Shen Xuewei approaching.

Chen Fanglan jokingly asked first, "Weiwei, how did your previous business go? It didn't go bankrupt, did it?"

Shen Xuewei lightly patted her arm, "Auntie, why don't you appreciate me?"

"Don't you know who I am? Do you think my company would go bankrupt so easily?"

Upon hearing that Shen Xuewei had actually started her own business, Zhao Fang'er became interested.

"Weiwei started a company too?"

Before Shen Xuewei could speak, Chen Fanglan proudly raised her head.

"Of course, she partnered with someone to start a clothing company that sells clothes online."

"Wow, it's only been open for half a year, and its sales last year were already several million."

Zhao Fang'er was somewhat surprised, "To achieve sales of several million in just six months is indeed impressive."

"It seems that Vivi has a real talent for doing business."

Shen Xuewei smiled as she was praised, but modestly replied:

"Oh, not at all. Compared to my aunt and second aunt, I'm still far behind."

She didn't hide her entrepreneurial venture from Chen Fanglan and the others.

She had asked Chen Fanglan for help quite a bit when she was trying to recruit people to place fake orders.

Chen Fanglan had already taken out her phone, opened the Taobao search results for the YunCai store, and handed it to Zhao Fang'er to look at.

"Look, Fang'er, this is the shop that Weiwei opened. Look at this link, clothes that cost a little over two hundred yuan have sold over two thousand orders, and the model here is still Weiwei..."

"Let me see. They're really nice, these few suit me. I'll buy myself a few outfits, and then I'll ask my friends to check them out and support Weiwei's business..."

As the three were talking, Chen Fangyang, who had been standing next to Grandpa Chen, also came over.

"What are you all saying here? It's so lively. Let me hear what's going on."

Chen Fanglan rolled her eyes at him. "What are you doing here?"

"Go away, go away. All you do all day is eat, drink, and have fun. You can't understand what we're saying anyway, so stop getting in our way."

Chen Fangyang was pushed back into the house by her. He sighed and sat down on the sofa with a sullen face.

"Fang'er, Weiwei, let's ignore him and continue..."

The three people on the balcony didn't even glance at Chen Fangyang, each expressing their views on the company's development.

Both of these people in front of me have their own companies, so I can learn from their experience.

Zhao Fang'er goes without saying. Back then, she was all alone with a child. She started her company in the 1990s and has grown it to its current size. Her courage and ability are both indispensable.

Although Chen Fanglan only took over the beauty salon in 2006, the salon has seen rapid growth.

In just five years, she has grown from two beauty salons to more than a dozen chain beauty salons, and plans to open a few more this year, showing her strong entrepreneurial spirit.

Although Yuncai Apparel is just starting out and doesn't receive much in dividends, Shen Xuewei still made a considerable amount this year.

She owns 25% of Platinum Joy Skin Research Institute and received nearly two million in dividends last year.

Last year, her royalties and manuscript fees totaled nearly seven million, and the money she made in the stock market was no less than that from her royalties and manuscript fees.

Just from these sources alone, the annual income exceeds fifteen million.

Even if she doesn't find any other good investment projects this year, she believes that with the existing income and continued development, her income this year will be at least 20 million.

Having money in hand means you won't panic no matter what happens, and you can do everything with composure and calmness. This is the state of mind that Shen Xuewei embodies.

Shen Xuewei listened attentively to their conversation, thinking about the money in her card, a smile she couldn't hide on her face.

After a lively day, everyone except Chen Fangli's family went home.

At night, Shen Xuewei and Chen Fangli slept in the same room, talking in hushed tones.
