She was afraid that Xu Zhaoyue would find the price too high and break off negotiations with the other party, so when she heard that the research department was going to come over, she immediately followed.
"Are you worried about me or the machine? Everything's fine now." Xu Zhaoyue was in the mood to joke with her now.
"Oh dear, I'm definitely most worried about your safety, Vice President. If I didn't speak English, I would have gone with you already." Manager Hong was overjoyed, his smile spreading across his face.
Xu Zhaoyue chatted with her for a while before going to discuss it with the research department. "How did it go?"
“Very good. Apart from some damage to the outer shell, everything inside is fine.” The person who answered the question also seemed very happy.
"What if we want to rebuild one based on this machine?" Xu Zhaoyue asked.
"Huh?" The other party was somewhat surprised. "I'm not trying to belittle myself, but let's not even talk about the fact that we can't see through the blueprints of a finished machine. Let's just say that the manufacturing process of some parts is something that we don't have in China yet."
"It's alright, you guys take a look first. I'll talk to your department head about this." After handing the equipment over to the hospital, Xu Zhaoyue went home. She could only stay at the company for two or three hours, so she might as well go home and sleep.
At the villa, Yue Lanxing had already found Uncle Sun. "What do you want? It's almost dinner time, why isn't Miss back yet? You've come back first." Uncle Sun came out to meet Yue Lanxing.
"Miss, please send the equipment to the hospital first. I'll be back soon. This young lady asked me to come back first so she can go to the dock to transport some things. She said that transporting them all at once would be too conspicuous and she wants to put them somewhere else."
Yue Lanxing's mysterious tone piqued Uncle Sun's interest. "Come inside and tell me." The two entered the house. "What is it?"
"Four boxes of gold bars." Yue Lanxing knew that the young lady had sent him to find Uncle Sun, so he must have been able to tell him. He held up four fingers to indicate the number.
Uncle Sun was shocked. "Four boxes! My goodness! What has Miss done to become so successful?"
Yue Lanxing gave a brief explanation, and Uncle Sun clapped his hands in approval after listening, "Good, very good. The young lady is becoming more and more like her mother. Okay, go back and change into some work clothes. We'll leave in a bit and get things done tonight."
When Xu Zhaoyue returned home, it was Wu Ma who came to pick him up. "Old Sun has already taken care of the things that Miss asked him to do."
"Okay, I trust Uncle Sun with this." After washing her hands, Xu Zhaoyue noticed that Aunt Wu was still standing there, seemingly wanting to say something. "Aunt Wu, is there something you want to ask me?"
Aunt Wu winked at Xiao Nan, "Go out and close the door first."
"Oh." Xiao Nan nodded and went out, closing the door behind her and waiting at the door.
Wu Ma walked up to Xu Zhaoyue and said, "Didn't Miss send Yue Lanxing to find Old Sun? You think he's trustworthy, right? Old Sun told me before he left to put the things in the small warehouse first."
"Oh, is that what it is? Actually..." Xu Zhaoyue forgot to tell the two elders, "Xiao Nan is quite tight-lipped." She muttered to herself, and then wondered whether she should tell Wu Ma the truth.
"Aunt Wu, actually, Yue Lanxing and I just confirmed our relationship a few days ago." Xu Zhaoyue's voice trailed off as she spoke.
After she finished speaking, she paused for a moment before daring to look at Wu Ma's reaction. She saw Wu Ma take a deep breath, and just when she thought Wu Ma was going to scold her, Wu Ma said, "Okay."
"Huh? Is that how it is?" Xu Zhaoyue was confused; this was completely different from what she had expected.
Aunt Wu picked up a piece of meat for her, saying, "Miss, eat more meat. You've lost weight from being so busy with work lately."
"Okay." Xu Zhaoyue picked up a piece of meat and put it in her mouth, watching Wu Ma as she ate.
Wu Ma sat down on the chair next to her and began to talk about the past, "It seems that the young lady has the same taste as your mother, both liking good-looking and promising people."
"Back then, because her family wouldn't let her study medicine, she went out on her own to find a master. She found a master of traditional Chinese medicine and studied Western medicine on her own. Later, she met your father and married him without hesitation."
"Old Sun and I followed Miss all the way to Shanghai. It was only three or four years later that the Xu family rose to prominence. Miss managed to balance work and family life. It's just a pity."
Aunt Wu sighed, and Xu Zhaoyue quickly comforted her, "Aunt Wu, don't be sad. If my mother were here, she would be happy with me as her daughter, wouldn't she?"
"Yes, Miss, you are so outstanding. So, for a man to go from bodyguard to butler, besides your support, he must have a lot of his own abilities."
"If Miss wants to talk, then let's talk. Even if something goes wrong, Old Sun and I will cover for you." Wu Ma said this with great magnanimity.
Xu Zhaoyue nodded, "Don't worry, you've all worried about me for my mother for so many years, how can I let you continue to worry? I know what I'm doing."
When Yue Lanxing and Uncle Sun returned, Xu Zhaoyue was drinking with them, but they didn't drink much; the two of them just had a small drink.
"Hey, I'm out working, and you're relaxing at home drinking, even dragging the young lady along." Uncle Sun was quite displeased. "Old man, come here, let me pour you a glass." Aunt Wu took another glass from the tray.
"Miss, how much have you drunk?" Yue Lanxing quickly walked to Xu Zhaoyue's side, and seeing that Xu Zhaoyue was looking down and not looking at her, she immediately squatted down to check on her condition.
Xu Zhaoyue was startled by Yue Lanxing's sudden appearance in front of her. "Huh? What is that?"
Yue Lanxing noticed that her cheeks were flushed, probably from the alcohol. "Miss, how many drinks did you have?" There was only one bottle on the table, and no empty bottles under the table, so it shouldn't be too many.
