Follow your family’s arrangements to go abroad?
That won’t work!
Tai Wu said with a righteous expression, "Uncle Peng is not a man-eating tiger. I'm just thinking about what to say to him when I see him."
Xie Qian looked Tai Wu up and down, and suddenly smiled: "I found that you have an advantage that others don't have."
Tai Wu was greatly encouraged. "Who are you talking about 'someone else'? Is it Peng Guoqing? I always think I am more handsome than him. This is my advantage!"
As long as he doesn't compare his looks with Xie Qian, Tai Wu is still very confident in his circle of friends.
Xie Qian had a deadpan expression: "I'm talking about your ability to tell lies with a straight face."
Oh, so this is the advantage you are talking about.
Tai Wu wasn't at all shocked. Instead, he felt complacent: "If we use it well, this is indeed a great advantage, right?"
Xie Qian's silence was considered as his agreement.
Tai Wu suddenly felt that there was nothing to be afraid of when meeting Peng Ningkang alone.
Peng Ningkang just took advantage of his age. When they… no, when Xie Qian reaches Peng Ningkang’s age, he will definitely be more powerful than Peng Ningkang! Now, Xie Qian thinks so highly of him, which means he will be very powerful in the future.
What the saying goes, the world belongs to the young after all!
Tai Wu was full of confidence. Xie Qian was infected by this guy's optimism and wanted to give him a few more words of advice, but Tai Wu had already jumped out like a wild dog.
"Ding-ling-ling..."
Xie Qian's cell phone rang. He looked down and saw it was an unfamiliar number.
Although there was no note on the number, Xie Qian had an extraordinary memory and knew whose number it was at a glance.
"Aunt Tai, do you also want to persuade me not to take in Tai Wu?"
The person who called Xie Qian was Tai Wu's aunt Tai Jing. If Xie Tang and Peng Guoqing hadn't contacted Tai Jing and learned about Sara Zhuo's complicated love history from her, Xie Qian wouldn't have set his sights on Zhang Zhijun so quickly.
Tai Jing told Xie Qian the clues but didn't want to get involved in the Xie family's affairs. Xie Qian thanked Tai Jing and respected Tai Jing's wishes and didn't bother her too much. Since that meeting, Xie Qian never contacted Tai Jing, but he did memorize Tai Jing's contact information.
Because of this incident, Xie Qian owed Tai Jing a favor. If Tai Jing asked Xie Qian not to help Tai Wu, Xie Qian would be in a difficult position.
"What am I trying to persuade you to do? I think Xiaowu is doing well learning from you. I invited Xiaowu to dinner a few days ago and found that he has improved a lot in both speaking and doing things."
Tai Jing fell in love with the wrong person when she was young. She has never remarried and has no children in these years. She is still very doting on Tai Wu. If Tai Wu can stay in China and find a good path, Tai Jing is not forcing Tai Wu to go abroad out of boredom.
On the phone, Tai Jing seemed to have some concerns and spoke vaguely: "There is something I find very strange. Can we meet?"
"Okay, Aunt Tai, please make an appointment!"
Xie Qian didn't hesitate at all. On the other end of the phone, Tai Jing seemed relieved: "I'll tell you in detail when we meet."
Tai Jing and Xie Qian met in a cafe.
She arrived earlier than Xie Qian. This time, Tai Jing didn't have too many concerns and directly chose a seat by the window. When Xie Qian entered the store, Tai Jing stared at the coffee on the table in a daze.
"Aunt Tai?"
"You're here."
Tai Jing came back to her senses and said, "Sit down and talk."
Tai Jing had previously been very reluctant to meet Xie Qian. The Tai family was no longer as prosperous as before, and she didn't want them to get involved in these matters. She came to see Xie Qian now because Tai Wu was working alongside him, and it was impossible for the Tai family to distance themselves from him.
Furthermore, Tai Jing suspected that someone had been targeting the Tai family, and some recent events had made Tai Jing frightened.
"I need to think about where to start. Let me start with my failed love life. You must have heard about my failed marriage when I was young."
Tai Jing doesn't care at all about exposing her shortcomings.
Xie Qian nodded gently, "Indeed, I have heard that everyone praises you, Aunt Tai, for being efficient and decisive, and more decisive than most people."
Tai Jing was originally in a heavy mood, but after hearing Xie Qian's words, a smile appeared on her face: "You look aloof, but you are so good at talking. It's true that you are different when you have a girlfriend. Okay, you don't have to say these nice things to coax me. I know my own business. I was just stupid when I was young!"
I foolishly found a Phoenix man as my husband and thought I had found true love.
Later, she caught her Phoenix Man husband and the nanny in bed. The most ridiculous thing was that the nanny was the Phoenix Man’s first love, and their child was several years old!
Tai Jing divorced decisively at that time and completed the procedures for going abroad as quickly as possible.
Tai Jing didn't specifically seek revenge against the Phoenix Man; she simply cut ties with him as quickly as possible. The Phoenix Man's ex-husband's reputation was tarnished by this incident, and the Tai family resented the man for deceiving Tai Jing, so he remained stuck as an associate professor for years.
This is the background.
Two months ago, Tai Jing's ex-husband's job title, which had remained unchanged for many years, suddenly changed. The old Phoenix man was promoted to a senior position!
"This isn't right."
Tai Jing was trying to wrap her mind around this. "He hasn't led any major projects in years, hasn't produced any scientific research results, and yet he suddenly published two high-quality papers in core journals... When someone told the Tai family about this, we didn't take it seriously. After all, it was a grudge from many years ago, and I'd gotten over it long ago."
It was the Tai family who helped my ex-husband get promoted to associate professor.
It's okay to be the son-in-law of the Tai family and enjoy the resources of the Tai family. But if he doesn't act like the son-in-law of the Tai family and deceives Tai Jing's feelings, it's only natural for the Tai family to withdraw their help.
For so many years, thanks to the influence of the Tai family, Tai Jing's ex-husband, lacking his own strength, had been suppressed in his career, relying on a teaching position to make ends meet. The Tai family had almost forgotten about this person, but suddenly he popped up again.
