Chapter 197 Opportunity for Reconciliation
Yu Li could certainly have guessed, but she never imagined that Qi Chenyan would go to such lengths for her.
Thinking of this, Yu Li couldn't help but sigh: "Of course I know how good Qi Chenyan is, but he's so good that I feel like I owe him more and more, and I can never repay him."
This time, it was Qi Xi who cupped Yu Li's face.
“Darling, you are husband and wife, a family on the same household registration, just like you and I are family. When I help you, do you feel indebted to me?”
Yu Li blinked and shook her head.
"Then you and your uncle are the same. What he did for you was of his own free will. No one forced him, and you don't need to repay him in any way."
"Besides, you bore him children. If anyone owes him anything, it should be him who owes you and your children more."
Yu Li couldn't help but chuckle, "So this is a mother and daughter? What if it's a mother and son?"
Qi Xi immediately covered her ears, "I won't listen, I won't listen, ptooey ptooey ptooey, it must be a sweet and soft little princess, I'm a prophet, if I say it's a princess, it's a princess!"
"Alright, alright, but the news industry and the securities industry are different. Since you're new to news, feel free to ask me anything you don't understand. Those high-ups are all shrewd old foxes."
“When dealing with these people, you have to be constantly worried. Today they were intimidated by your identity as a member of the Qi family, but each of them feels that they have more seniority and are definitely not willing to be overshadowed by a young person like you.”
"So if it involves professional issues, ask me first before making a decision, so you don't get ripped off, understand?"
Yu Li was still worried about her best friend, after all, her best friend was easily influenced and had a soft temper, and would only get angry when it involved her.
Given Qi Xi's personality, he can't outsmart those old foxes.
"However, your performance today was quite outstanding. Your words left me completely stunned. For a while, those old foxes won't dare to mess with you."
Qi Xi chuckled, "I dare not take credit for it. Actually, it was my uncle who taught me."
"That's why they say he's a diplomat. His art of speaking is so sophisticated that he can not only grasp the key points but also effectively deter the other party."
No one can become very capable overnight. Qi Xi used to work in securities, which was all behind-the-scenes work, typing on a keyboard in the office.
She didn't need much contact with the outside world, and suddenly, she went from an ordinary employee to managing an entire television station.
It's like in ancient times, when a newly enlisted soldier, who had never even been on the battlefield, was directly promoted to general and led a million-strong army to fight against the enemy.
Unexpectedly, Qi Chenyan had even thought of the words for Qi Xi's first appearance.
Yu Li once again marveled at how meticulous men are.
"Xixi, keep up the good work and have confidence in yourself. Today you're managing a TV station, but in the future, you might be managing the entire Tianhe Group."
Qi Xi waved her hands repeatedly, "I wouldn't dare to daydream like that."
“How could it be a daydream? Qi Siyue was demoted to the lowest level hotel because of his mistake, and Qi Xiaoyun is focused on his singing career, so it's impossible for him to go home and inherit the family business.”
“Looking at the entire Qi family, you are the most suitable. So I think that Qi Chenyan made this decision not only to have you come and support me, but also to cultivate you as the future heir of the Qi family.”
Sure enough, as expected of a married couple, Yu Li guessed correctly.
Qi Xi blinked. "Can I really do it?"
Yu Li lifted the hem of her skirt and gave Qi Xi an elegant aristocratic bow.
"If you become rich and powerful, Mr. Qi, don't forget me!"
Qi Xi laughed heartily, "Rise, rise. When I ascend the throne, I will bestow upon you the title of Iron-Capped Prince."
The two best friends were chatting and laughing when there was a knock on the door.
The two stopped at the same time. Yu Li quickly stood up, while Qi Xi plopped down in the boss's chair.
He cleared his throat and said, "Please come in."
"General Manager, this document needs your review and signature."
Having been best friends for over twenty years, they had developed a tacit understanding. Without needing to say much, Yu Li and Qi Xi reached an agreement.
When they were at the station, the two pretended not to know each other and continued to act as leader and subordinate.
Qi Xi hummed in agreement, "Just leave it here. I'll call you when I'm done reading."
As soon as the secretary left after putting down the documents, Qi Xi handed them to Yu Li.
"Honey, please check this for me. Is there anything dangerous waiting for me?"
While helping her look at the news, Yu Li patiently taught her about the news, one point at a time.
Qi Xi was naturally very intelligent, after all, he inherited the Qi family genes.

Meanwhile, Ren Qingxue, who thought herself clever, was originally planning to stubbornly deny it.
But she was clearly too naive and didn't know the methods the police used to interrogate criminals.
Before the night was even over, she became delirious and confessed everything.
Although Ren Qingxue did not commit murder intentionally, she was the one who gave the chocolate, so she bears joint responsibility. If she does not want the victim to hold her accountable, the only way is to bear all of the victim's medical expenses.
Otherwise, Ren Qingxue would be charged with intentional assault, and the situation would obviously be unfavorable to her. Once the trial begins, she would inevitably be sentenced.
Ren Qingxue certainly didn't want to go to jail; if she did, her life would be ruined.
So after the police offered a solution, she immediately chose to negotiate with the victim, willing to bear all the costs, just hoping to be released as soon as possible.
The orphanage agreed to a settlement, but Ren Qingxue was required to pay half of the medical expenses first.
The cost of a subsequent heart transplant will be discussed once a suitable heart is found.
When the medical bills were handed to Sun Wenxiu, her eyes widened in disbelief at the sight of the 50,000 yuan.
"It's only been a few days, how come it costs 50,000? That's too expensive!"
The hospital director said, "The emergency treatment plus the ICU costs, not even including subsequent expenses, is already considered cheap. Besides, compared to the suffering Qianqian is going through, who would willingly spend this much money to suffer in the hospital if they could?"
"But...but I don't have that much money..."
Sun Wenxiu readily agreed to the settlement because she thought that even if she had to pay part of the medical expenses now, it would only be a little over ten thousand yuan at most.
Who would have thought it would cost 50,000? This was far beyond what she could afford.
The dean's face darkened. "What, you can't even come up with 50,000 yuan? Are you trying to renege on your promise? If that's the case, then there's no need for a settlement."
"That's not what I meant. It's just that my family isn't well-off, and I really can't come up with the money right away..."
Before Sun Wenxiu could finish explaining, the dean stood up and said, "Qianqian's life is still in danger at any time. I'm only giving you a chance to reconcile because of Miss Yu."
"If you can't pay 50,000 yuan today, then we'll have to see you in court."
Sun Wenxiu was extremely anxious. Of course, she couldn't come up with the money, so the only thing she could think of was to find Yu Li.
