Chapter 5: The Second Young Master of the Xie Family Makes a Different Appearance

Shen Baili took Shen Wan's hand and walked to the backyard, where there was a glass greenhouse with many beautiful flowers planted.

Because the two wanted to grow vegetables, Manager Lin arranged for the gardener to clear out a ten-square-meter open space in the corner. Shen Wan transplanted a few tomato seedlings there, and then Shen Baili loosened the soil in the rest of the space and scattered cabbage seeds on it.

Although the place is small, it carries expectations.

They often come here for a stroll and watch the vegetables grow little by little, which gives them a great sense of accomplishment.

After a month, the tomatoes had produced a few small fruits and the cabbage seedlings had grown a lot.

"In a few weeks, the cherry tomatoes will turn red." Shen Baili said in surprise.

"The tomatoes we grow ourselves must be very sweet." Shen Wan said with a smile, "The cabbage seedlings can be fried and eaten in a few days to replenish your body."

"It must be delicious." Shen Baili raised the corners of her mouth, her emotions full of energy.

Supplementing vitamins also replenishes the body.

The combination of meat and vegetables will keep you healthy.

"Mom, let's take a photo with the vegetable field to commemorate the results of our labor." Shen Baili said enthusiastically.

"Okay." Shen Wan took out her mobile phone skillfully and turned on the selfie mode.

The two took several photos and were very satisfied.

After all, she is beautiful and looks good in any photo, Shen Baili thought narcissistically.

Shen Wan's attention fell on the yellow flower field blooming not far away: "Let's pick some flowers and decorate the room."

"Okay, okay, let's go back and arrange flowers together." Shen Baili followed her gaze and saw the sunflower field.

"Sunflowers are so beautiful, the sunshine is so vibrant, and the fruit is delicious."

Shen Wan agreed and picked one: "It has a light fragrance and smells good."

The two of them are like hardworking little bees, busy in the flower fields, but bees collect honey and they collect flowers.

The setting sun turns the earth into a warm color, cozy and comfortable.

Shen Wan and Shen Baili each held a bouquet of flowers and returned to the villa, talking and laughing.

"We picked a lot of flowers, so we need to find a few more vases to put them in." Shen Wan was holding blue and white hydrangeas, and her view was blocked from time to time.

Shen Baili held a few sunflowers in each hand, but was always hit on the head by the flower disks.

They were so happily chatting about how to arrange flowers that they didn't notice the strange atmosphere in the living room at first.

Shen Baili caught a glimpse of the man walking towards them and asked in surprise, "Uncle Xie, are you back from your business trip?"

Xie Chengyue took the hydrangea from Shen Wan and replied, "Yes, I just came back."

"Didn't you say you would be back in two days? Are you tired from the journey?" Shen Wan handed the flowers to him naturally.

Xie Chengyue: "The cooperation was very smooth. I came back after finishing the work ahead of schedule."

He took off the petals on Shen Wan's head and joked, "Don't you welcome me?"

Shen Wan took his hand and said, "Welcome, welcome. Sui Sui and I just happened to need help with flower arranging. Isn't the helper here?"

Xie Chengyue raised his eyes slightly: "Then I came at the right time."

Shen Wan nodded.

"By the way, how is Suisui's injury recovering?" Xie Chengyue asked with concern.

Shen Baili smiled obediently: "The wound healed very well."

Xie Chengyue saw her rosy cheeks and her ability to move freely again, and nodded, "Surgery consumes your energy, so take good care of yourself."

Shen Baili: "Okay."

Shen Wan smiled gently: "The kitchen prepares delicious food for her every day to nourish her body."

Xie Chengyue noticed the watch on Shen Baili's hand and suddenly remembered that it should be the gift to celebrate the girl's good ranking in the high school entrance examination. He also knew that she had chosen Haicheng No. 1 Middle School.

The girl is as resilient as her mother.

Neither Shen Wan nor Shen Baili noticed that his eyes fell on the watch, firstly because he quickly looked away, and secondly because they finally noticed the few people in the corner.

Shen Wan asked, "Xiao Liu, is there anything else you need to hand over?"

For more than thirty days, Liu felt cold in his heart. He needed to be strong-willed to be in the same space with the big boss. Finally, he waited for someone to show up, but he didn't dare to step forward and interrupt their conversation.

Now, the knife hanging over his head finally fell.

"Mrs. Xie, I'm sorry, I didn't discipline my employees well..."

He got straight to the point, explained the entire incident clearly, and admitted his mistakes in a good manner.

There is no trick in the whole paragraph, it's all sincerity. Trying to play tricks in front of the big guy is courting death.

Director Liu finished his own speech and apologized to the culprit.

It's not that he's protecting the culprit, it's just that the idiot's mouth will only make the situation worse.

The older employee was trembling with fear, completely losing his previous arrogance: "Mrs. Xie, I'm sorry for offending you... I'm just jealous, please forgive me, I really won't dare to do it again."

"I'm sorry." The young employee lowered his head, feeling scared.

This is her first job after graduation and she doesn't want to be unemployed.

Shen Wan was silent for a moment, and said calmly: "I have received Xiao Liu and Xiao Wu's apologies, but the responsibility is no longer yours. I believe your store respects every customer, right?"

Manager Liu and the young clerk nodded repeatedly.

In their line of work, customers are king.

Shen Wan fixed her gaze on the older clerk again. His short-sightedness, stupidity, jealousy and other bad qualities were still clearly displayed at this moment. She was not apologizing sincerely.

"I don't accept your apology."

The older clerk thought the other party was a pushover, so she subconsciously replied: "Why? I've already apologized, what else do you want???"

She is so petty and doesn't have the generosity that a rich wife should have at all. It's true that vixen have the best fate.

Because of Xie Chengyue's protection, the older employees became even more jealous.

Shen Baili said bluntly: "Just because you apologized, do we have to forgive you?"

"This isn't a child's game."

What kind of nerves?

Shen Wan was very calm: "I have the right to refuse forgiveness."

Manager Liu pulled the older employee over and asked, "Does this idiot want to kill them?"

"I'm sorry, you have the right to refuse forgiveness. It was our fault in the first place... We will give you a satisfactory answer."

"It's getting late. You should leave now." Shen Wan politely said goodbye to them and reminded them, "Remember to take your things with you."

Manager Liu understood Shen Wan's hidden message: "Thank you, ma'am."

The other party was not angry with them, but was dissatisfied with the current handling results.

Knowing the guest's request, it was easy to deal with. Manager Liu took his staff and left Xie's house.

Xie Chengyue didn't say a word during the whole process. He left the decision to Shen Wan.

When he went home, he did not hear clearly the conversation between the person in charge and the clerk. The person in charge was obviously aggrieved. Xie Chengyue asked in a roundabout way, and the other party told him everything.

He did not hide or deal with the matter, but handed it over to Shen Wan.

"Shall we continue arranging flowers?" Shen Wan said with a smile. Her expression remained calm and she was not affected at all.

Xie Chengyue: "I'll help."

Steward Lin took the initiative to say, "Miss Baili, shall we go get the vase together?"

Shen Baili glanced at her mother, and Shen Wan smiled and waved: "Go ahead, I'll take care of the roots first."

"Help, come and help."

Xie Chengyue rolled up his sleeves and asked, "What should we do?"

Shen Wan taught him how to handle the flower branches. Xie Chengyue got the hang of it quickly. After cutting, he showed her the flowers and raised his eyebrows and said, "Teacher Shen, how is my student's cutting?"

Shen Wan took a look at the squid he had processed and said, "Very good, keep it up."

After receiving praise from his "teacher", Xie Chengyue processed the squid faster.

"Sorry." He said suddenly.

Shen Wan was stunned for a moment, then realized that he was apologizing for the malicious words she received from others after marrying into the Xie family.

She felt a bit complicated. She gathered up the small bunch of hair and handed it to him: "Didn't you help me support my waist?"

"I am very happy."

Without too many words, the two understand each other.

"Isn't this what I just trimmed?"

Despite saying this, he accepted the hydrangea honestly.

"This bouquet will go in our bedroom."

…

When Butler Lin and Shen Baili returned to the living room with the vase, all the roots of the flowers had been dealt with.

The three of them arranged the flowers according to their own aesthetic tastes and completed a total of five vases.

Four of them are placed in the bedroom and one in the living room.

"There will be a charity auction at the end of this month. You guys can go with me then." Xie Chengyue said.

Shen Wan nodded: "Okay, is there anything I need to pay attention to?"

Shen Baili also nodded.

In the two months since Shen Wan married into a wealthy family, they have attended two banquets but have never been to an auction.

Xie Chengyue: "There is nothing special to pay attention to. Just relax."

***

The black SUV was speeding on the road.

Manager Liu was driving the car, the young and older employees were sitting in the back seat, and there was a co-driver and an accompanying staff member.

While everyone else is in a low mood, the culprit is actually very relaxed.

The older clerk thought the matter had been resolved perfectly and sneered at Mrs. Xie for being a softie.

Some people are holding their backs, but they don't know how to challenge them.

Maybe the boss likes this kind of non-aggressive dodder, which is soft and docile and won't have any inappropriate thoughts.

Such a boring personality might be abandoned soon and become a joke.

The older clerk thought that when this day comes, she will definitely make a fool of them, and she burst out laughing as she thought about it.

Others in the car: “…”

Manager Liu was speechless. He couldn't even remember how many times he had been speechless today. Didn't this idiot think that she didn't have to take any responsibility? Or did she think that the deputy store manager would protect her?

Don't you see what kind of disaster has happened? Even the deputy store manager can't save himself...

Manager Liu would not be so kind as to ignore her. After today, he would no longer have to work with this idiot.

The young clerk closed her eyes and dozed off. She felt that what she thought was right. Mrs. Xie was a beautiful and kind person with principles and bottom lines. Her kindness was also sharp.

Ahhh, she announced that she is Mrs. Xie’s little fan girl, and that Mrs. Xie and her husband get along very sweetly. She was attracted by their wealthy love story.

There is still a tough battle to fight today, so she needs to cheer herself up. Sometimes she admires the slowness of the seniors around her.

With her limited life experience, she could sense the seriousness of today's incident to the brand.

Mrs. Xie did not hold her and the person in charge accountable, but she did not forgive the senior!

This matter is not over yet. Brother Liu has already reported the matter, and they will have to hold a meeting tonight to come to a conclusion.

She glanced to the side quietly and saw that her senior had fallen asleep.

Through the rearview mirror, she saw Brother Liu rolling his eyes.

The office worker who had just started working suffered another heavy blow in the workplace.

She still has too little experience.

***

At the end of July, on the day of the auction.

The life assistant came to the villa early in the morning with the styling team.

This auction was not a dinner party, so there was no need to wear formal attire, which gave the stylist more room to express himself.

Shen Wan respects the stylist's opinions and will also put forward her own opinions appropriately. Her suggestions often serve as the finishing touch.

Shen Baili knew that her mother had always had a talent for design and was very sensitive to colors.

When she was a child, many of her clothes were made by her mother, and they were very beautiful.

After several hours of hard work, Shen Wan and Shen Baili were transformed from beautiful girls into noble beauties.

Both of them are beauties with outstanding temperament and fine bone structure. They look great with or without makeup, and they have different kinds of beauty.

Men's styling is simpler than women's. Xie Chengyue had already finished his styling. Seeing that they were not finished yet, he returned to the study to process documents.

An hour later, the three of them left home on time and headed for the auction.

They met Manager Liu and the young clerk Song Huan again in the backstage of the auction. They were following a middle-aged foreign woman.

"Mr. Xie, Mrs. Xie and Miss Bai Li, good afternoon." Manager Liu was very enthusiastic.

Shen Wan knew why he came: "Good afternoon."

Manager Liu introduced the two parties: "This is VE's Asia Pacific manager, Ms. Kevin."

Kevin is a capable female leader who speaks fluent Chinese. She took the initiative to explain her purpose, informed the results of the handling, and made compensation for the situation.

A disciplinary meeting was held in response to this incident, with all domestic employees participating online and offline. Company managers were required to submit a review. The culprit has been fired, and the group has resumed business skills training.

They were humble, sincere, and considerate enough to apologize in this public setting.

I believe that it won’t be long before this matter spreads among the wealthy circles.

Shen Wan achieved her goal and accepted Ms. Kevin's apology, saying that this unpleasantness would not affect future cooperation.

Several people talked happily.

Shen Baili listened to their pleasantries patiently, while Song Huan acted as a mascot and learned from his boss.

She was amazed. It was hard to imagine that the usually serious Ms. Kevin could have such a talkative and cheerful side.

There are many smart people in the workplace. Song Huan said he has learned something new.

The auction started soon. Xie Chengyue bought an emerald necklace for Shen Wan at a price of 86 million, and bought an antique painting for Shen Baili.

Ms. Kevin bought a pair of mother-daughter bracelets inlaid with pink diamonds and gave them to Shen Wan and Shen Baili as an apology.

All in all, this was an auction with unexpectedly fruitful results.

Shen Baili also heard the wonderful follow-up results from Song Huan.

The employee who made the mistake was dissatisfied with the outcome of the handling and made a big fuss in the store. In the chaos, he punched the deputy store manager and angrily shouted out the relationship between the two and all kinds of transactions.

It turned out that she was hired by the deputy store manager through the back door, and then the deputy store manager was also fired for abusing his authority.

The group sued them for infringing the company's interests, demanded compensation, and filed a lawsuit against the two.

Just when everyone thought that the story was over, the exciting part began.

Although the deputy store manager looks honest, he is actually quite cunning. He has always claimed to be single, but it turns out that he has been married for a long time. His wife lives in his hometown, so the lie has never been exposed.

Until a few days ago, his wife came to Haicheng on a business trip, and vaguely sensed that something was wrong with her husband, so she came to the store for a surprise inspection, and happened to run into the employee who made the mistake and revealed that he had an affair with the deputy store manager.

His wife went berserk on the spot and beat up her husband and the mistress together. She snatched the phone when the two were not paying attention and found effective evidence of the cheating. She directly filed for divorce and wanted the scumbag to leave the house with nothing.

Song Huan didn't need to say so much, but unexpectedly, Shen Baili, the audience, gave her such high emotions that she couldn't help but say more vividly.

After working for three months, Xiao Wu realized a truth: the only real qualities of a man are his handsome looks and height, as for the rest, well, well.

…

After the auction, Shen Wan suggested having French food, so the three of them had dinner at a restaurant outside before going home.

As soon as I arrived in the living room, I smelled a very overbearing fragrance.

The taste of Laotan pickled cabbage beef noodles!

Shen Baili would never admit her mistake.

The Boonie Bears cartoon was playing on TV at a very loud volume.

They continued to walk inside, and the person hidden by the sofa revealed Lu Shan's true face.

The second son of the Xie family, a popular figure in the entertainment industry who conceals his identity, is now wearing SpongeBob's pajamas, sitting on the ground and eating instant noodles.

Hearing the noise, he turned around, and his mouth, which was swollen and red from the spiciness, stood out particularly on his handsome face.

Xie Chengyue: "..."

Shen Wan and Shen Baili: “?”

Is this some new trend?
