Chapter 384 How old is Seventh Master? Is he handsome?
"Seventh Master?" Qi Mingxuan became excited as soon as she heard the name: "I know him. He started in the underground black market of Country A and is now the most invisible capital tycoon in the global business circle. Many of the new companies that have emerged in Beicheng in recent years are invested in and managed by him behind the scenes. I heard that he is most enthusiastic about shaping and cultivating new business elites. This is probably related to his own experience!"
"Yes, he's quite mysterious. He also has shares in several of my companies."
Qi Mingxuan gasped, "Shen Qingshu, you're amazing! You've been hiding your true abilities! You actually know a world-class bigwig like Master Qi?!"
"Actually, I'm not that familiar with him. He's a businessman, and profit is the most important thing to him. The reason we were able to work together was because he happened to like my paintings. I guess I was lucky."
Qi Mingxuan excitedly pressed, "Have you two met?"
Shen Qingshu pursed her lips. "I've only met him once so far."
"How old are you? Are you handsome?"
Shen Qingshu frowned. "He's in his fifties, a bit balding, and his looks are just average, but he has a very approachable demeanor."
Qi Mingxuan: "...Ah, I'm disillusioned."
Shen Qingshu chuckled, "Actually, I was quite surprised when I first met Seventh Master."
"So Seventh Master has always been unwilling to appear in public because he is not good-looking?"
Shen Qingshu was both amused and exasperated. "Why are you so concerned about looks? President Qi has always put profit first, so why are you suddenly paying attention to Seventh Master's appearance?"
"Oh, I was thinking that if Seventh Master were a bit more handsome, I'd let you make the connection. I'd try my best to make a super big shot like Seventh Master Qi Yue's stepfather, that would be great!"
Shen Qingshu: "..."
"Qi Mingxuan, give up." Fu Siyan said in a deep voice, showing no mercy, "Seventh Master will not like a woman like you."
"What's wrong with a woman like me? I'm beautiful and capable, and at thirty-four I'm with a man in his fifties, and I haven't said anything!"
Fu Siyan raised an eyebrow. "Do you think someone of Seventh Master's status hasn't seen all kinds of women?"
Qi Mingxuan scoffed, "What if Seventh Master actually likes my type?"
"impossible."
The man answered with certainty.
Shen Qingshu glanced at him.
Then, she looked down at her phone and said, "Think about it. If you really want to find someone to manage Ronghao, I can ask Seventh Master for you, but it may require sacrificing some shares. However, if you can get in touch with Seventh Master, it may be a bigger opportunity for Ronghao Group."
“Sure, you can ask for me.” Qi Mingxuan said, “Actually, as long as Qi Yue successfully recognizes his ancestors and returns to the family, let the Qi family take its natural course. If my elder brother can wake up, Rong Hao and the Qi family will still be handed over to him. If he stays asleep like this for the rest of his life, then for Qi Yue, the Qi family and Rong Hao will be both a responsibility and a burden.”
The Han family is large, and Han Mingyu has two brothers. Although the youngest brother is unlikely to marry and have children, at least the second brother can help Han Mingyu share some of the burden.
If Qi Yue were to acknowledge his ancestry and return to the family line, he would not necessarily have to follow the path of succession; he would have the right to freely choose his life and career.
However, in a situation like the Qi family's, if the eldest brother Qi doesn't wake up, Qi Yue will have no other choice but to take over the Ronghao Group.
This is also why Qi Mingxuan has always been strict with Qi Yue.
Her parents died early, and her eldest brother took on all the pressure and did his best to protect her, allowing her to grow into the proud, passionate, and independent young lady of the Qi family.
Although the Qi family is a century-old family, Ronghao Group began to decline after the death of their parents. It was only after the eldest brother took over that the situation began to improve. If it weren't for that car accident, the eldest brother would definitely be a well-known figure in the business world today.
But after her elder brother's car accident, the internal strife within the Qi family completely erupted. Factional struggles broke out within the group, causing widespread panic and volatility in the group's stock market. Qi Mingxuan couldn't bear to let Ronghao Group be divided and devoured by those selfish people. She had to protect Ronghao Group and the hard work of her parents and elder brother.
Qi Mingxuan's considerations were understandable to her parents, Shen Qingshu and Fu Siyan.
After hanging up the phone, Shen Qingshu sighed softly, "Qi Mingxuan has had a tough time. Actually, her assertiveness and arrogance are probably forced by circumstances."
"She is smart and strong, but she is too love-obsessed."
Shen Qingshu paused, then looked up at him.
When Fu Siyan was looked at like that, he suddenly felt that something was wrong.
Shen Qingshu stood up, looked at him, her eyes gentle and calm, "Young love is often passionate and pure, and young women are often prone to sacrificing for love, but after experiencing it, they will also discover the true meaning of love..."
Fu Siyan's back stiffened as he stared at the woman in front of him.
A sense of unease inexplicably welled up in my heart.
Shen Qingshu continued to look at him, her pink lips slightly curved, "It's nothing special."
Fu Siyan: "..."
Shen Qingshu covered her mouth and yawned, "I'm going back to my room to rest. You should rest early too."
Fu Siyan stood up and grabbed Shen Qingshu's hand.
His voice was low and tinged with grievance, "Didn't we agree that we would sleep with the two children tonight?"
Shen Qingshu paused, as if just realizing what she meant, and said calmly, "Oh, then go back to your room, take a shower, and then come down."
Fu Siyan frowned, wanting to speak again, but Shen Qingshu gently pushed his hand away and raised her hand to gently stroke his collar. "I'm tired. Go into the room quietly and don't wake the child."
Fu Siyan: "..."
...
Shen Qingshu returned to her room and quickly took a shower.
Without washing my hair, it's much faster.
After applying her skincare products, she got up, lifted the covers, and lay down.
The door was gently pushed open.
Fu Siyan walked in quietly.
Only a small nightlight was left on in the room.
Shen Qingshu lay on her side with her eyes closed as if she were asleep.
Fu Siyan walked over, sat on the edge of the bed, and leaned down to kiss the woman's delicate cheek.
Shen Qingshu raised her hand and pushed him, "Stop fooling around, I'm so sleepy."
Fu Siyan: "..."
“My bed doesn’t have a bed rail, so you can sleep on Nian’an’s side to prevent the child from rolling over and falling out of bed in the middle of the night.”
That's natural.
Seeing that she was really tired, Fu Siyan couldn't bear to disturb her any longer. He helped her pull the blanket up a bit before getting up, walking to the other side, and lying down.
The nightlight in the room was turned off.
In the darkness, the man held his son's small body in his arms and closed his eyes.
Although I was a little itchy to sleep together, it was the first time that the four of us had slept in the same bed like this.
The man felt a different kind of satisfaction.
But just before falling asleep, the words the woman had said that evening suddenly popped into my head—'Young love is often passionate and pure, and young women are often prone to sacrificing for love, but after experiencing it, they'll also discover the true meaning of love…'
He suddenly opened his eyes. In the darkness, the man's brows were furrowed, and his heart was pounding erratically.
At that time, he did not know that such a passionate and pure love would eventually become his lifelong wish.
