Tonight's training session not only laid a solid foundation for Yue Lanxing, but also earned the respect of everyone present for the young lady. They will play a crucial role in the subsequent operations and will be the future military force of the Xu family mansion.
"Miss, did you have fun today?" Xiao Nan asked, drying Xu Zhaoyue's hair. "Yes, I did! What's there to be unhappy about?" Xu Zhaoyue looked up at Xiao Nan in the mirror.
Xiao Nan sighed, "Alas, but you just let the young master go. What will the master do? In the end, it will be the young lady who gets scolded." Xiao Nan was worried about the young lady.
Xu Zhaoyue smiled. She had already thought this through. Of course, she needed to find someone to share the burden. "Then I'll find someone to shield me. Don't worry, Xiaonan, this little thing won't be difficult for me."
Xiao Nan believed it for the time being, but she certainly couldn't have imagined that Xu Zhaoyue's solution was to cooperate with Xu Zhaoming.
"Oh, what do you want? Is there anything I can help you with?" Xu Zhaoming was quite surprised when she was called over. She even asked Assistant Qi if the drugging had been successful, but Assistant Qi said that he hadn't found an opportunity yet, which made her even more curious about Xu Zhaoyue's purpose in calling her over.
Xu Zhaoming sat in a chair, drinking tea, looking quite composed, completely unaware that Xu Zhaoyue and Assistant Qi had exchanged glances.
"I want to talk to you alone. Have your people leave." Xu Zhaoyue's tone was indifferent, showing no concern for Xu Zhaoming's earlier probing.
Seeing how serious she was, Xu Zhaoming nodded to Assistant Qi, who then left. "Alright, tell me, what is it that you want to discuss with me alone?"
"Did you know that Father wants Xiao Hao to join the company?" Xu Zhaoyue's words made Xu Zhaoming stand up from his chair. "What? When did this happen?"
Seeing how agitated she was, Xu Zhaoyue realized she knew the consequences, which made things easier. "Just a few days ago, my father asked me to persuade Xiao Hao to study management so he could inherit the family business. You don't need to look after me; it's just what you're thinking."
"You agreed?" Xu Zhaoming's voice rose. "You're not usually like this!"
Xu Zhaoyue stretched out her right hand and pressed it down on her, then said slowly, "I already agreed to let you join the company back then, so why can't I agree to this?" Then she looked at Xu Zhaoming with an inscrutable expression.
"Ha, how can that be the same! Then what was the purpose of calling me here? Just to talk about these things?" Xu Zhaoming sat down again, looking like he didn't really want to talk about his own affairs.
“I tried to persuade him, but Xiao Hao refused and has already run away from home. I’m afraid my father will just kidnap him and take him there, so I need to find a way to get him to leave Shanghai.” Xu Zhaoyue found it amusing to see Xu Zhaoming’s uncooperative attitude.
"Heh, you don't actually think it would be good for you if he joined the company, do you? If your mother found out, wouldn't she make you cooperate fully with Xiao Hao?"
