"What do you say?" Qin Xiaoyu's anger was ignited.
"What can I say? I have no obligation to educate her. It's best to just avoid seeing her." A Lei shrugged, and Qin Xiaoyu breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed she really had to guard against a traitor within the family.
Lisheng's recent progress has been alarming. Zhou Yue even came to ask, "Did you drug him?"
What kind of medicine should be used?
"This kid comes running up to me and asks, 'Mom, do I need to learn Chinese to do business?' I say yes, otherwise you won't even be able to understand the contract. Then he comes up and asks, 'Mom, do I need to learn math to do business?' I say, 'Aren't you afraid the accountant will falsify the books and cheat you out of money?' Then he says he also needs to learn English well so he can do business with foreigners. What's wrong with this kid?"
"Haha, I told him he had to inherit the family business, and he's working so hard for that."
"Family business? You mean Riyue Clothing?" Zhou Yue was taken aback.
“From now on, it will all be a joint-stock company. I will divide Riyue Apparel into a certain number of shares, and we will all hold the shares together. At that time, there will only be one CEO to take the helm. I think Lisheng has the potential. We should nurture him well, and his age is just right. If he really learns well, we can send him to study Chinese classics management and finance in a few years.” Qin Xiaoyu is no longer worried.
The world is never short of hardworking people; what it lacks are people with direction.
With just a little guidance, Lisheng's mind is destined to be exceptional.
But Xiao Jin is a real headache. This child is just not cut out for studying. Although she has been working hard and has hired many tutors, her grades just won't improve.
Watching her diligently memorizing her lessons, only to turn around and draw little figures with a pencil the next day, Zhou Yue sat down next to her, annoyed.
"Sister, you need to be self-disciplined in your studies. You're such a big kid now, just watching over you won't help. Can you watch a person's heart as well as their body?" Qin Xiaoyu shook her head.
"What can we do? I'm at my wit's end. With these grades, I won't get into any university!" Zhou Yue stomped her foot in frustration.
"If it doesn't work out, let Wang Jian support her. I think that kid is capable of doing it." Deng Jianyan was quite open-minded. "Besides, do you think our family will lack her food and drink?"
Wang Jian has now made his Shanghai counter a great success, even more so than when Tang Wenwen was in charge.
“I saw them secretly communicating, so I stole one.” Zhou Yue mysteriously pulled out a letter and handed it to Deng Jianyan. The couple then examined it closely.
"You guys," Qin Xiaoyu said, both amused and exasperated. Chinese parents love to pry into their children's privacy. If Xiao Jin found out, she would throw a tantrum.
Her approach to educating Hanhan and her younger sister was to let go completely; it wasn't that she didn't care, but rather that she didn't interfere excessively.
Before Qin Xiaoyu could even prepare how to confront Qin Xiaoye, she vanished. Only five thousand yuan was missing from the account. Qin Xiaoyu sighed; some things truly cannot be changed.
Qin Xiaoye seems completely different from her parents, but deep down she has learned everything her parents have learned. Is it because she has spent a lot of time with them and has been influenced by them?
With Qin Xiaoye gone, the Guangzhou station was empty again, and Zhou Yue had to fill in. While she was good at design, she was much weaker in sales.
Qin Xiaoyu was a little anxious. If she hadn't been in confinement for so long, she would have taken over herself. The period before the Spring Festival was peak season, and she couldn't waste such a good time.
“Auntie, I’ll go. I’ll help my mom, don’t worry.” Lisheng volunteered.
"Stop! You have a ton of homework to do!" Zhou Yue glared at him.
"Mom, I'll take my homework with me. When there's business, I'll do business; when there's no business, I'll do my homework. I promise I won't miss anything. Please!" Lisheng grabbed Zhou Yue's hand and shook it desperately.
"You'll shake your mother to her core in a minute!" Deng Jianyan scolded, and Lisheng pouted, looking aggrieved.
"Sister, why don't you take Lisheng with you? Give him a one-day trial period. If he performs well and completes his homework well, continue. Otherwise, cancel it. He won't have anything to say, right?" Qin Xiaoyu gave Zhou Yue a wink. Of course, she didn't rely on him to do business. Using this as an excuse to get him to do his homework properly was also a good idea.
"Alright then." Zhou Yue had already been softened by Li Sheng's persuasion, so when Qin Xiaoyu said that, she did him a favor.
The next day, Zhou Yue got off work early and came home beaming.
"Little Fish, our family has a successor! Lisheng is really cut out for business!" Zhou Yue's voice was loud, and her words immediately drew out Zhou Xing's mother, who raised her rice spoon as if to hit her.
"The child is sleeping, why are you shouting! If you want to shout, go shout at your own home!"
"What's wrong, sis?" Xiaoyu came downstairs when she heard the noise.
"We finalized two agency deals today. One of them involved cross-regional payments, and the other party wanted us to cover the costs. I thought it wasn't much money, so I was about to agree. But Lisheng immediately said no, and even showed him the contract, which was entirely the other party's responsibility. We managed to convince him, and even offered him a discount while stuffing a bunch of summer clearance items into his hands." Seeing that Qin Xiaoyu and Zhou Xing's mother were wide-eyed, Zhou Yue started to play coy, taking a bite of an apple.
"If you don't tell me, I won't listen. Let's go upstairs." Qin Xiaoyu still had a few tricks up her sleeve.
"No, I'll tell you! Later he did some calculations for me, and that's when I realized it had something to do with taxes. This kid, when he first came into the store I asked him to look at the contract, and he looked at it for half an hour. I thought he was just putting on an act, but it turns out he actually figured it out." Zhou Yue said smugly.
"The deal's done, what about the homework?" Qin Xiaoyu reached out to Lisheng.
"Auntie, look, isn't it neat?" Lisheng quickly took out his notebook and handed it over. Although it wasn't as good as he boasted, it was still passable.
"So we're going again tomorrow?" Qin Xiaoyu asked Zhou Yue.
"Of course, I'd definitely keep an assistant like that. My brain isn't working properly anymore, I'll rely entirely on him, and I don't want anyone getting confused."
Qin Xiaoyu secretly gave Zhou Yue a few more instructions, telling her not to be careless, as she was still just a child. But privately, she was quite satisfied with Li Sheng.
"So you're saying the company will be handed over to Lisheng Management in the future? How do you know Jiajia can't inherit the family business?"
“He’s more likely to follow in his father’s footsteps. Look at that face of his, he’s just enjoying himself. I’m afraid he’ll just be like you in the future. No matter how smart he is or how capable he is, if he doesn’t want to do anything, what can I do?” Qin Xiaoyu pointed with her finger, and A Lei chuckled and put her finger in his mouth and gently bit it.
Qin Xiaoyu cried out in pain and quickly let go.
Actually, it didn't hurt at all; it was just her trick. But she couldn't let herself be taken advantage of, so she went up and bit his jaw. The two of them were playing around when, yelping and yelping, Xiao Jiajia woke up.
"This kid, can't he sleep a little longer!" A Lei complained as he went to check his diaper.
Who would have thought that a cool and handsome eligible bachelor would become a seasoned stay-at-home dad? Qin Xiaoyu is content.
There was a light knock on the door, and the younger sister peeked in.
"What's wrong?" A Lei asked when he noticed that his little sister's eyes were a bit red.
