Chapter 28 "The Real and Fake Heiresses" The real heiress will sit on the judging panel (Part 11...)

Meng Xuedong: ...

What do they usually call unregistered companies?

Ye Xiqing savored the aroma of the avocado: "I'm planning to start a pharmaceutical company, but I haven't gotten anything done yet."

Oh, so it's "nothing".

Meng Xuedong decided to give up on himself and listen carefully to Xi Shen's idea, but after waiting for a long time, Ye Xiqing still didn't say anything.

Meng Xuedong: ...

"So, Xi Shen, what's your first step?"

Ye Xiqing glanced at her indifferently: "How would I know? I haven't attended a single professional class either."

Meng Xuedong: ...

Then why are you so confident?

Ye Xiqing looked at her expressionlessly and said matter-of-factly, "You need to understand one thing: you're not my classmate or my roommate anymore. I'm the one who's hiring you. Do you really need the boss to do something as trivial as setting up a company personally?"

Meng Xuedong: ...

"In that case, can we talk about salary first...?"

Ye Xiqing beckoned her to bring her phone, transferred 5000, and coldly said, "That's all you're worth now."

"Huh?" Meng Xuedong jumped up from the recliner: "Yes, boss!"

The world is diverse. Although her family background wasn't as extreme as Ye Xiqing's before she was found, it was still the kind of family where, once she got to university, she felt embarrassed to ask her parents, whose hands were covered in calluses and whose bodies bore the marks of life's hardships, for living expenses.

So before entering university, she applied for a student loan, planning to use the many holidays during university to work part-time to support herself, and ideally, to free her parents from financial burden while she was still in university.

At the same time, she accumulated a lot of work experience, found a good job right after graduating, and paid off her loan on her own. That's really amazing!

However, she has many relatives. After she received her admission letter from X University, people would come to her parents and threaten them, and then threaten her.

People say things like college graduates are worthless now, and many can't find jobs. They also say that it's better for girls to marry well than to do well in exams, and that Old Wang's daughter next door is living a life of luxury after marrying so-and-so.

To this kind of person, she only has one thing to say: Get lost! You worthless losers are the ones who spend all day playing video games and can't even get into a vocational college! I'm incredibly valuable!

But she didn't dare say it to his face...

But it doesn't matter, she's already prepared to start scrutinizing people from college. Even though the job market is tough right now, she's determined to ruthlessly eliminate those who still have job opportunities!

The spiritual world of the King of Scrolls is beyond the reach of ordinary people, so the moment Meng Xuedong received the money, he was ready to start his job.

"Okay, Mr. Xi, I need some work environment and some work tools, like a computer or something. Can you reimburse me for these?"

Ye Xiqing originally intended to treat her as a friend, but she didn't expect her to get used to being treated like a servant so quickly.

In that case, she has always respected and blessed everyone.

They led Meng Xuedong into the prepared guest room. The luxury of the Ye residence lies in the fact that even a single guest room has a private bathroom and a well-defined separation between work and rest.

"The rooms here are all specially soundproofed, so you can stay undisturbed by closing the door. Today, please compile a list of the qualifications that a pharmaceutical research and development company needs. If there is any problem, please call the logistics department."

"After you finish your task, you can come visit me. Although you are now my employee, I still consider you a friend, and as a friend, I would still like to treat you well."

Meng Xuedong: ...

She doesn't want to hang out with her at all! Which office worker doesn't sneak off to relax and hang out with their boss after work? They're not friends anymore; bosses and employees can't be friends!

But she couldn't say that; she couldn't say everything to her boss.

So when Meng Xuedong saw his boss off, he tearfully expressed that he really wanted to play with her on a spiritual level.

After the boss left, I immediately closed the door and used all my strength to test the soundproofing of the house.

After discovering that it was indeed very good, she sprawled out in the swivel chair, oh! This was her domain!

After enjoying the comfortable working environment, I carefully opened the laptop, which was as thin as a cicada's wing yet booted up in a second, and exclaimed in amazement once again—

Wow! I'm starting to love my job!

After once again marveling at how great it is to be rich, Meng Xuedong faced the computer screen with a serious expression, recalling his boss's instructions, opened his browser, and typed—

What qualifications are needed to establish a drug research and development company?

While plagiarizing web information, they also seem guilty. Is it fair to offer only 5000 yuan for this level of technical difficulty...?

Her fingers flew across the keyboard as she summarized the information. She wished her boss would assign her some more work…

...

Meng Xuedong thought that her work room was soundproof and no one would know what she was doing, but the system, as an extraterrestrial being, could see everything she did. So the system hurriedly found Ye Xiqing: "Host, what do you want to do!"

"Set up a pharmaceutical company, didn't I tell you already? I want to explore the male lead's expertise."

The system gritted its teeth, "Are you trying to mess with the male lead's major?! You're already planning to start a company! The male lead is still studying his major!"

Ye Xiqing remained calm. So what? Did he expect her to wait for him to start?

He was born four years earlier than her and had four more years of experience working hard, all without her permission.

Time waits for no one. The earlier you get up, the better. If you get up late, the male lead will take the lead, which is not good.

system:……

It knew that Ye Xiqing wouldn't follow the plot obediently; once she gained the upper hand, who knew what she would do.

But the fact that she scored 746 points on the college entrance exam, entered the best pharmacy major in a legendary way, and studied under a famous teacher has already happened. Now she can only pin her hopes on the regulation of drugs as special items, which will make it not so easy for her to start a company.

Although a rational analysis would suggest that a college freshman could only lose money by starting a pharmaceutical company, Ye Xiqing's behavior can never be analyzed rationally!

I was anxiously watching Meng Xuedong's work progress when I discovered that Meng Xuedong had already summarized the objective conditions for the establishment of the conditions and then summarized another more important condition—money.

system:……

As a lost daughter who has been "reborn" and suffered severe psychological trauma, Ye Xiqing is extremely dissatisfied with her father for using her name for company publicity without her permission.

So, Ye's loving father, who was determined to make amends to his daughter, immediately gave her 5% of the actual shares in order to satisfy his noisy little princess, which even her brothers didn't have.

Wow, living in a family that dotes on their daughter so much must be so wonderful.

As soon as I thought about starting a business, my family handed me money!

Moo—

The system was heartbroken, despairing of this world where Ye Xiqing could command the wind and rain at will...

The system, its heart shattered into eight pieces, forced itself to stay upright, encouraging itself while trying to dissuade Ye Xiqing: "Host, as the saying goes, it's not that we're afraid of rich kids spending money, it's that we're afraid of rich kids starting businesses."

"Even the male protagonist only started his business with his friends after building up his network in academia. Shouldn't you be a little more cautious, host?"

Ye Xiqing turned the pages of the book. Meng Xuedong hadn't even had a single professional class yet, but she had already started.

Looking up at the system that seemed to be acting erratically, and out of kindness towards a long-term partner, I briefly put down my book and asked benevolently, "System, what do you think is the purpose of me following the male protagonist's path?"

System: Need I say more? It's about stealing the male lead's opportunity!

Ye Xiqing couldn't help but chuckle, her gaze towards it as if she were showing concern for a mentally challenged person:

"System, is it possible that I'm just using him as a stone to throw across the river?"

"Your male lead is like a hollow stone with a smooth brain and only a beautiful appearance. If you treat him as a collectible, you will find that you are wasting your time and energy."

"But if you throw it into the water to test it out, you'll find that if this kind of thing can sink to the bottom, then this puddle isn't so bad to wade through."

"Now that I know from the original story that it will sink to the bottom, does it still matter how he did it?"

system:……

It's already upsetting enough that the chosen male lead is looked down upon by the female lead, but even his brilliant entrepreneurial abilities from the original story are being scorned...

The system tried to piece its self-esteem back together, but it was shattered into too many pieces...

He hid in the system space, sulking, but his eyes couldn't help but keep looking back and forth.

Be smug, be smug, be smug now!

It sounds so powerful, but if it gets overturned by this little puddle, it really will laugh!

...

Regardless of what the system was thinking, Ye Xiqing didn't want to pay attention to it anymore.

She doesn't like to waste her energy on meaningless things; she'd rather spend her time exploring new knowledge and discovering new worlds.

I casually flipped through this book, "Introduction to Pharmacy," and patiently read the entire preface word by word.

If she were in her original world, she would definitely be more purposeful and have a more meticulous plan to live out her life, which she could not afford to fail.

But in the game world, she has endless possibilities and doesn't care about temporary gains or losses.

This feeling is so wonderful, allowing myself to immerse myself in the unknown ocean without worry, where the body and time lose their meaning.

It wasn't until my body sent out hunger signals that I realized it was already dark.

Turning to look to the side, the iced cola that Meng Xuedong had ordered was still there, though it was no longer cold.

After a moment's thought, he ordered a fresh batch to be frozen and sent to Meng Xuedong, and someone responded immediately.

Having clothes handed to you and food served to you, this world is so easy.

...

Meng Xuedong said she could slack off after work, but in reality she was too anxious. She always felt it wasn't perfect and that she was letting down the 5,000 yuan. In the end, she was fired.

So she started by checking the simplest qualifications, then GLP certification, then the technical team's qualifications, and then the complex setup of the technical team. Isn't that too difficult for a college student starting a business?

While racking his brains for a solution, an idea suddenly popped into his head: why not just acquire a well-established laboratory?

Because of these ingenious ideas, she listed countless development paths, but fearing that it would be too complicated and tiring for the boss to read, she began to organize the language word by word.

After finishing the work and confirming that there were no typos, she asked the logistics department to prepare a printer for her.

She didn't actually know how to use a printer and had to learn on the spot. When the printed paper with perfect layout finally came out, Meng Xuedong was satisfied and excitedly went to report to her boss, only to be told by her boss that she needed to eat and that she shouldn't talk about work during the meal.

Meng Xuedong: ...

She sat down at the long dining table in the Ye family home, feeling the prickling sensation on her bottom, and listened as Ye Xiqing introduced her to her mother.

Normally, she would be full of curiosity about wealthy socialites, but now she's so anxious! Really anxious!

Ji Yuxiu never expected that her daughter would bring her classmate home.

As a "superior person," she naturally possessed the arrogance of a "superior person," but her daughter's friends were ultimately different. Ji Yuxiu felt a sense of surprise, as if her daughter was sharing her life with her.

Because of this joy, Ji Yuxiu was very amiable, and the atmosphere was very friendly when the group met for the first time.

Meng Xuedong also shed his prejudice against wealthy families and felt that he was really just a guest at an ordinary classmate's house. After hurriedly finishing his meal, he frantically signaled to Ye Xiqing: Something's wrong! Something's wrong! Hurry up!

Ye Xiqing: ...

She doesn't like people rushing her while she's eating, but considering that Meng Xuedong is her employee and creates value for her, she forgives her this time. If it happens again, she'll force her into her food.

Despite Meng Xuedong's urging, Ye Xiqing stubbornly finished her portion and said goodbye to her mother: "Mom, I'm going upstairs with my classmates."

"Go on, go on." Ji Yuxiu watched them leave with kindness, and couldn't help but sigh, "It's so good to be young."

Then she noticed there was a young man next to her and asked, "Li'er, why is it so quiet today?"

Ye Xueli looked up.

Ye Xiqing's friend and mother naturally received little attention.

Staring blankly at the unfinished game, what exactly belonged to her?

...

After exchanging ideas with the extremely excited Meng Xuedong, Ye Xiqing's mind was filled with Meng Xuedong's immersive voice. She rubbed her temples and went back to her room.

Just around the corner, she saw Ye Xueli, who had been waiting for her.

The lights in the Ye family's corridor simulate natural sunlight, creating a hazy, twilight-like atmosphere at the corner of the staircase.

Ye Xueli stood on the stairs. Her slender figure usually went unnoticed, but Ye Xiqing still spotted her at a glance.

He stepped aside, looked up at her, and asked, "Is there something you need?"

Ye Xueli: ……

She deliberately chose this position because only by standing at a high place could she have the courage to face Ye Xiqing.

But it was all in vain. When Ye Xiqing glanced over, no matter where she stood, she felt a fear that she could collapse at any moment.

So she could only grip the railing tightly to make herself seem less timid: "Sister, don't you like Brother Qin Nian?"

Ye Xiqing looked at her: "Why do you ask that?"

Ye Xueli was so nervous that she could hardly breathe, and she clenched her fingers tightly: "Because my sister was very rude to Brother Anian today, if you don't like him, does that mean I can like him?"

"Has our relationship reached the point where you need my permission to like anyone?"

“Brother Anian is different. Before my sister knew, he should be her fiancé. I don’t want to compete with my sister for anything, so I want to ask you.”

Hearing her say that, Ye Xiqing tilted her head, seemingly pondering what she had said.

After an unknown amount of time, she smiled and replied, "Ah, of course."

Ye Xueli breathed a long sigh of relief. Even though she ultimately lost to Ye Xiqing, at least she still had this one and only trump card that wouldn't be taken away.

She no longer wanted to stay in this house; Brother Anian was her only refuge.

But she hadn't expected that the dim lighting and her frail appearance would evoke such primal malice. So Ye Xiqing didn't stop there; instead, she smiled and continued speaking—

"You don't actually need to be so careful in asking for my opinion or speculating whether I will join your battle."

"For someone like you who has always been raised like a weak rabbit, it seems that your fiancé should also be my fiancé."

"But no, he can't be."

“In ancient tradition, only the princess who was not valued would be sent to marry a foreign ruler.”

"As for me, no matter when, I will rightfully inherit everything from the Ye family."
