He Yu found out which classroom Xiao Hua was in and waited for her outside the classroom after school.
As soon as Xiaohua stepped out of the classroom, she saw He Yu. To be honest, she felt a little annoyed at that moment!
It's unclear whether He Yan failed to convey her meaning effectively, or whether He Yu insisted on coming despite He Yan's insistence.
Whatever the reason, Xiaohua found it annoying.
"I came uninvited, Xiaohua, you're not angry with me, are you?"
He Yu smiled slightly, pursing her lips.
Xiaohua said with a forced smile, "How could that be? Sister He Yu, is there something you need from me?"
He Yu, ever the familiar type, grabbed Xiao Hua's hand and said, "Didn't I tell He Yan to tell you that I'm treating you to dinner?"
Xiaohua didn't like her overly familiar attitude, even though they weren't close at all!
"He Yan told me that I refused, so why didn't He Yan convey my meaning properly?"
He Yu was taken aback, not expecting Xiao Hua to be so direct, not giving him any face at all.
However, she wasn't angry. When she arrived, she had already anticipated that Xiao Hua might not give her a friendly look.
"Oh, then it must be that He Yan didn't convey the message properly. Xiao Hua, if you're angry, be angry at He Yan. He's such a grown man, and he can't even convey a message properly. Please don't be angry with me."
(He Yan: Hehe~ You really are my good sister. Your brother is innocent, but you still have to pin a crime on him.)
Xiaohua: ? ? ?
Is this older sister afraid that she doesn't hate He Yan thoroughly enough?
"But I'm already here, Xiaohua, how about I treat you to dinner, or you treat me to dinner? You choose one."
Xiaohua: Can I not choose?
"Sister He Yu, let me treat you!"
He Yu happily said, "Okay, then I won't stand on ceremony with you."
Xiaohua: Please, just be polite with me for once!
The two went to a local restaurant. It wasn't crowded at lunchtime and was relatively quiet, making it a good place to talk.
"Sister He Yu, if you're here to advise He Yan and me to live a good life together, then I suggest you shut up."
Xiaohua spoke frankly, cutting off all other possibilities; she really didn't want to hear such words anymore.
Just yesterday, her parents called and told her to be nicer to He Yan, to hurry up and give him a son, to hold onto his heart, and for the two of them to live a good life together. She didn't dare to mention divorce, for fear of upsetting her parents.
He Yu took a sip of water and smiled nonchalantly, "Oh dear, I thought you were going to say something. Whether you and He Yan are living a good life or not is your business and He Yan's business. What does it have to do with me? I am neither He Yan's parents nor your parents. I don't care about this."
Besides, He Yan has wronged you for three years. Why should you forgive him so easily and then wholeheartedly raise the child and live a good life with him? He Yan thinks he has such a big face.
Xiao Hua was stunned. This... is this still He Yan's sister?
"Sister He Yu, what brings you here to see me?"
At first, Xiaohua thought that He Yu must have been sent by He Yan to persuade her, but judging from how He Yu belittled He Yan just now, she didn't seem like someone who came to persuade her and He Yan to live a good life together!
But one doesn't visit a temple without a reason. Xiao Hua doesn't simply think that she's just bored enough to travel all the way from Beicheng to the sea just to have a meal with her.
“I’m here to see you because I have something to say, but it has absolutely nothing to do with He Yan! Xiao Hua, I just hope you can look at me as a person without considering my relationship with He Yan, and not let your preconceived notions influence your opinion of me.”
Xiao Hua thought that as long as they weren't there to persuade her and He Yan to live a good life together, that would be fine.
While eating, Xiaohua asked, "Sister, what's up?"
The dishes and rice were served, and she was so hungry that she couldn't wait and ate a few mouthfuls of rice first.
“I heard from He Yan that you’ve started a business recently. I really admire you. I think you’re a miracle. You’re raising a child alone in a big city, and now you’ve been admitted to Shanghai Jiao Tong University and started a business. To be honest, I both envy and respect you. You’re smart, courageous, and decisive.”
Xiao Hua isn't stupid; she doesn't simply think that He Yu traveled all the way from Beicheng to the sea to invite her to dinner just to praise her.
"Sis, just get to the point, my time is precious!"
What she said was true. After lunch, she wanted to take advantage of the lunch break to finish the homework that had piled up for several days. She also needed to go to the school in the evening to check on the progress of the renovation. If she didn't keep an eye on things, the workers would dawdle and be inefficient.
If an ordinary person spoke to He Yu like that, He Yu would have been angry long ago. But when Xiao Hua spoke to her like that, she not only wasn't angry, but she also felt that this person was very straightforward and genuine, and worth getting to know.
“Xiaohua, I love your straightforward personality. I forced He Yan to tell me about your startup and understand your business direction. To be honest, it made me feel really excited. I think I have to do this too, I have to get involved, so that my life won’t have been in vain!”
Xiaohua found her somewhat ridiculous. Their relationship wasn't close enough to be inseparable, but judging from her tone, it was as if Xiaohua would have to agree to join her.
That's overconfidence!
"Sis, if you want to join, you have to show me your value! Starting a business is nothing more than two things: resources and capital. If you can provide either one of these, you can go it alone. Why would you need to join me?"
He Yu sensed the subtle sarcasm in her words, but she wasn't angry.
"Not everyone is suited to going it alone. For a company to grow big and strong, the leader needs to have enough courage and a forward-looking vision for the next few decades. I don't think I have those qualities, but I also want to make something of myself, which is why I want to join your team!"
