Act in accordance with the law
"I am from Chen country, and my mother named me Lu Wanqing. I clearly remember that I had just finished drinking a bowl of medicine, and my whole body was in pain. Afterwards, I saw my body lying in the coffin. Everyone was crying, and no one heard me speak. After that, I was pulled away by a force, and when I opened my eyes, I was in the place called "hospital" just now." The woman with Jian Qing's face sat quietly on the wooden dining chair, telling a story that did not belong to Jian Qing at all in a very calm voice.
Qin Shi searched his mind but had no impression of the so-called "Chen State", so he took out his mobile phone to search.
"Chen State—a vassal state from the Western Zhou Dynasty to the Spring and Autumn Period..."
No wonder he spoke like an ancient person. It turned out that the person in front of me was an ancient person who traveled through time.
This is undoubtedly a situation that Qin Shi does not want to face.
An ancient person who is using Jian Qing's body. She does not have Jian Qing's memories and does not know much about modern life. The place she should go to most is a research institute, leaving it to scientific researchers to find similar time channels.
But Qin Shi looked at the girl opposite again, Jian Qing's eyes, Jian Qing's eyebrows, Jian Qing's face... Qingqing, how could she bear to let Qingqing be taken away!
Qin Shi thought it through in almost a second. She had to protect Qingqing.
Just like countless times before, Qingqing protected him.
She likes painting and applied for the fashion design major in college, while Jian Qing studied business administration.
When they were in college, Qin Shi was just an ordinary painter, but Jian Qing was the eldest daughter of the Jian Group who was recognized wherever she went.
"Shishi, what is your life goal?" Jian Qing once asked Qin Shi.
"Become the top in the industry!" Qin Shi answered almost without thinking.
"Qingqing, what about you?"
“Become a business landslide!”
Qin Shi was not surprised to hear these words from Jian Qing.
“Why not the top stream?”
"My dad is the top star. What I want to do is to break his myth. I hope that one day, when people talk about me, they won't ask who my father is. I am who I am, and I can make a name for myself!"
So, Jian Qing saved a little bit from his own small treasury every month and saved enough start-up capital for a small company.
With the start-up capital, the first person Jian Qing thought of was Qin Shi. She wanted to make a name for herself in the fashion industry with her best friend.
So, in the university dormitory, Qin Shi and Jian Qing drafted the initial articles of association of Jianyi Company. Jian Qing provided the money and Qin Shi provided the design draft. The two rented a small office in an entrepreneurial incubator near the university town as the business location.
With Jian Qing's expansion of the business market and several of Qin Shi's design works winning awards in the industry, Jianyi Company also began to gain fame in the industry. The company expanded in scale and introduced a lot of new investments, including Chen Cheng.
Jian Qing is the general manager of Jianyi Company and represents the image of a company. Qin Shi looked at the current "Jian Qing" and shook his head.
Before she stopped shaking her head, her cell phone rang.
It’s Assistant Lin.
After sending Jian Qing home, Qin Shi was worried that Chen Cheng would make new moves, so she asked her assistant to rush back to the company.
"Boss Qin, please bring Boss Jian to the company quickly. Chen Cheng is calling a shareholders' meeting to seize the company!"
Sure enough, new situations emerged in the company.
Qin Shila supported "Jian Qing" and stood in front of the mirror, looking at herself again and again. The woman in the mirror had clear eyes and beautiful eyebrows. No one would doubt that she was the real Jian Qing.
"Qingqing, no, Wanqing, there's something going on at the company. I'll take you there."
Lu Wanqing looked at Qin Shi in confusion.
Qin Shi then remembered that the concept of "company" was too unfamiliar to Lu Wanqing.
"It's just like the shops of your ancient people. You are the shopkeeper and owner of this shop. Now, Chen Cheng wants to take your shop away!"
Qin Shi racked his brains and used his limited experience in watching TV dramas to translate for Lu Wanqing.
"That won't do. The shop might be Miss Jian Qing's dowry. Chen Cheng is so shameless that he even wants to covet a woman's dowry!"
Qin Shi nodded: "Chen Cheng has hired a lawyer and wants to inherit Qingqing's company." She took Lu Wanqing's hand, as if she wanted to talk to Jian Qing in the past through her: "Miss Lu, perhaps this is the opportunity God has given us. From now on, you are Jian Qing. For Qingqing, for our past and future, let's take the company back together, okay?"
Lu Wanqing, or "Jian Qing", nodded.
She turned around and looked around the room again.
Qin Shi saw that Jian Qing in front of him was slowly getting familiar with this world.
"Jian Qing" was seen walking back and forth in the room for a few steps, his hands clenched tightly, and finally, as if he had made up his mind, he turned and went into the kitchen.
With the sound of metal collision, "Jian Qing" walked towards Qin Shi with a kitchen knife in his left hand and a fruit knife in his right hand, with a look of fearlessness in his face.
"This knife looks pretty sharp. Let's go and take the shop back!"
Qin Shi quickly waved her hands: "No, no, no, in a society ruled by law, we must act according to the law, not fight and kill. Put away the knife quickly."
Thinking that Jian Qing sometimes spoke in a flowery manner and sometimes behaved unexpectedly, which could easily be exposed in front of everyone, Qin Shi introduced Jian Qing's story on the way to the group with "Jian Qing".
"Jian Yi is a women's clothing brand founded by Jian Qing. Jian Qing holds 80% of Jian Yi's shares and is the de facto chairman. After graduating from university, I, Qin Shi, started a life of acting cute and hugging my bestie's thighs, and became the design director of Jian Yi. Later, in order to be with Chen Cheng, Jian Qing severed ties with her parents and stated that her parents could not interfere in any affairs of Jian Yi. So you have to behave well when you go there. If Chen Cheng does something to deem you as a person without civil conduct, the company may still fall into Chen Cheng's hands. OK?"
"Jian Qing" shook his head in confusion, then asked weakly, "What does it mean to act according to the law? Are we going to perform a ritual to take the shop back?"
It seems that after saying so much, "Jian Qing" didn't even understand the first sentence.
Qin Shi’s mentality was about to explode.
She slammed on the brakes, turned left, and made a U-turn.
"Shishi, aren't we going to rob the shop?" Jian Qing held on to the car seat with one hand, not understanding why they were going back.
Qin Shi drove the car to the door of the bookstore and shouted to the owner, "Madam, please give me a Modern Chinese Dictionary. The more basic the better!"
The bookstore owner was a middle-aged woman wearing a simple floral top and watching a short video. She cheerfully pulled out a dictionary from behind her, looked up at Qin Shi, and couldn't help but exclaim, "Little girl, you look so young! Your child is already learning to read?"
Qin Shi quickly waved her hands: "Boss, you misunderstood, I'm not married yet."
"Oh." The proprietress said with a look of understanding, "I understand. A few days ago, there was a young man who came to buy tutoring books for his sister after his parents had their second child. At your age, you are still children, and you have to tutor your younger siblings. It's really not easy."
Qin Shi didn't want to explain too much, so she hurriedly paid and quickly put the brand new Chinese dictionary into "Jian Qing's" hands. Now, with "Jian Qing" by her side, she really felt like an older sister with a younger sister.
"Is this a book?" Jian Qing opened the dictionary and saw the densely packed words. He couldn't help but sigh, "It's really good! The paper in your era is really thin."
"This is called a dictionary. If you come across a word you don't understand, just look it up in this dictionary. It has detailed explanations in the book."
In the past, whenever there was a problem, Jian Qing would find a way to solve it, and Qin Shi would just follow Jian Qing and cling to him. But now, "Jian Qing" is like a newborn baby, who doesn't even fully understand the basics of modern social life.
It is better to teach a man to fish than to give him a fish. Faced with the "hundred thousand whys" that Jian Qing might ask at any time, the only solution Qin Shi could think of was to give her a dictionary.
"Is this your writing? I seem to recognize every one of them, but also seem to recognize none of them." Jian Qing flipped through a few pages and closed the dictionary again.
Qin Shi frowned, and an uneasy guess emerged in his mind.
Lu Wanqing lived in a very distant ancient time. There was no nine-year compulsory education, and women were kept in seclusion, making it difficult for them to come into contact with writing.
"Have you ever been to school? Can you read?" Qin Shi asked carefully, and at the same time prepared herself for the possibility that Lu Wanqing could not read and that she would have to accompany the eldest lady to continue reading, learning to read and doing homework starting from kindergarten.
"I have read a few books and recognize some words, but the words in this dictionary are very similar to the words I know, but not entirely similar. They seem a lot simpler."
Qin Shi suddenly realized that the dictionary in Lu Wanqing's hand used simplified Chinese characters, while she only knew traditional Chinese characters.
Qin Shi immediately turned back to the bookstore.
"Boss, do you have a dictionary with simplified and traditional Chinese characters?"
The proprietress glanced at Qin Shi and said, "No. Who would read this kind of book nowadays?"
"Little girl, although most people are unhappy about having a second child, this is not something the child can decide on his own. It's not easy for children nowadays. It's difficult to get started learning traditional Chinese characters. Don't put too much pressure on your younger siblings." The proprietress advised earnestly.
"Okay, forget it if there's nothing." Qin Shi was about to return to the car from the bookstore in a sullen manner. When she walked out of the bookstore, she tripped over the threshold.
This bookstore is an internet-famous bookstore near a primary school. Many books are used in the decoration inside. Qin Shi then discovered that the threshold of the bookstore is made of some old books spliced horizontally and then protected by acrylic plastic, forming a style with a strong literary atmosphere.
Among these old books, there is a dictionary of simplified, traditional and variant characters.
"Boss, can you sell me this blue dictionary?" Qin Shi pointed to the reference dictionary.
The proprietress looked at the dictionary Qin Shi pointed at in disbelief. "Hey, you actually found it. But this book is a decoration, not for sale. Since you're a regular customer, I'll give it to you as a gift."
After saying that, the proprietress lifted the acrylic board, took out the dictionary, dusted it off, and handed it to Qin Shi.
Qin Shi was in a hurry and didn't have time to thank the bookstore owner properly. He took out a beautifully wrapped silk scarf from the trunk, put it on the cashier's table, and then ran to the car like the wind.
"Boss, this is the latest silk scarf from Jianyi Company. I'm giving it to you, the beautiful and kind boss!"
