Xu Guangcai looked preoccupied, as if he was very embarrassed to ask Xu Zhaoyue to do these things. "If you make a mistake in the investigation, you can say that the child is ignorant and no one will blame you."
Xu Zhaoyue rolled her eyes inwardly. This wasn't assigning tasks; it was clearly shifting blame. Would the company's people even care about the heir's age?
"Since Father said so, I'll give it a try. But I didn't go to the border, so how am I supposed to explain where this information came from?" Xu Zhaoyue asked, holding the information in her hand, puzzled.
“It’s alright. Just say that Assistant Yan gave it to you. He went with me to handle it, so he knows all the details. If you don’t understand anything, just ask him.” Xu Guangcai pointed to Assistant Yan next to him.
Assistant Yan bowed slightly after her name was called. "Manager Xu, I will help you with this later."
If Xu Zhaoyue hadn't witnessed Assistant Yan's biased stance before, she would have believed his current friendliness. She went through his information in her mind; he was an assistant who traveled with her father on business trips for many years and was very clear about the company's external operations.
"Then thank you in advance, Assistant Yan." Xu Zhaoyue greeted them with a smile, and then chatted with them about what to do.
Yue Lanxing was playing chess with Butler Xu downstairs. Butler Xu noticed his lack of focus but didn't point it out. "I knew you were good at chess when we first played together. Where did you learn it?" Butler Xu asked.
"Oh, that was when I was a child. There was a schoolteacher where I used to live, and I often went to his place to play, so he taught me some things. I haven't touched them in the past few years." Yue Lanxing could attribute any skill to her childhood experience in the capital.
Butler Xu smiled. He was a promising talent who had been carefully nurtured, but unfortunately, he couldn't continue his studies. "Then you'll have to come and play chess with me a few more times. You know the martial arts school is handing over management these next few days?"
Yue Lanxing was surprised. He really didn't know. Why did Butler Xu want to tell him? Yue Lanxing shook his head sincerely and said truthfully, "I don't know. What does the person in charge do? I'll have to ask Butler Xu."
"Oh, it's nothing big. It's just that the martial arts school needs to select new members. Someone has to be in charge of these things. Although Da Chuan used to be in charge, that was when no one could beat him. That was when he was still young. Later, everyone stopped competing with him because of his seniority."
“He’s busy with the mansion’s affairs and preparing for the new talent selection. I’m worried he might make a mistake in the process.” Butler Xu said meaningfully. Yue Lanxing glanced at his expression, but being an old fox, he couldn’t see anything wrong with him.
Yue Lanxing withdrew her gaze and said seriously, "It's okay to make mistakes in the rush, but I'm afraid it might cause some losses to the mansion and the martial arts school. When will the handover take place? I'd like to join in the fun too."
After everyone upstairs and downstairs finished their conversation, it was time for them to head back. Xiao Nan wasn't idle either; she was chatting with other people outside, exchanging information and learning quite a bit.
After bidding farewell to her father, Xu Zhaoyue went downstairs, where Yue Lanxing and Xiao Nan were already waiting for her. "Let's go back," Xu Zhaoyue said, leading the group back to Moon Bay Villa.
Yue Lanxing immediately reported the matter of being in charge to the young lady, saying, "Young lady, if I go, I will definitely be able to take the position of person in charge."
"Of course I believe you, but you have too many things to do. How about this, you take Xue Huzi with you, as the top leader and second-in-command, as long as you are the one who makes the final decision." Xu Zhaoyue considered for a moment before giving this suggestion.
