"You child, you listen to everything I say. Go to my room and sleep!" Jiang Xiaoyan was both angry and annoyed. She walked over, picked her up, and took her back to her room to sleep.
Lu Feng chuckled and patted Duo Duo's little head, then lay down on the bed and slept soundly without much fuss or worries.
When Lu Feng woke up, the living room was already filled with Duo Duo's noisy chatter, and the birds chirping outside the window were particularly clear and crisp, creating a thriving atmosphere. Lu Feng got out of bed and walked into the living room, where he saw fried dough sticks and soy milk that he had bought on the dining table. Duo Duo had red eyes and was reluctant to eat.
"What's wrong so early in the morning?" Lu Feng squatted down and asked.
"I want pocket money to buy ice cream!" Duoduo said, her eyes red. "It's so hot now, what's wrong with buying ice cream?"
"It's only five cents, it's so early in the morning." Lu Feng looked at Jiang Xiaoyan and said, "Just pay what you owe."
"Is it really just a matter of five cents? She's already made arrangements with the school store to rent the refrigerator and sell ice cream. Last night she was grumbling to me, 'You've only been behaving yourself for a few days, and you're already thinking about selling ice cream. If you fail your exam next time, I'll twist your head off,'" Jiang Xiaoyan cursed.
“Selling ice cream? Your business won’t work. Even a convenience store owner can’t make money, how can you?” Lu Feng said to her, “Focus on your studies and stop thinking nonsense all day long.”
Lu Feng reached into his pocket to take out a few yuan to give her, but his own pockets were emptier than his face. He reached into Jiang Xiaoyan's pocket and searched for a while before handing her a green two-yuan note to buy her snacks.
“I can sell it now. The shop owner doesn’t give credit, but I can give them credit. Just give me two or three cents first.” Duoduo sobbed, “This is a seasonal business. If I sell it now, there’s still a year until next summer. I can get the money back. They can’t run away.”
"What if someone finishes their ice cream and doesn't pay?" Lu Feng said irritably, "That's risky."
"I...I know several fifth graders. If they won't give it to me, I'll have the fifth graders beat them up," Duoduo said to Lu Feng with a serious expression.
Hearing her risk control methods, Lu Feng was speechless. He looked at Jiang Xiaoyan and said, "You even said you'd send her abroad. I'm afraid she'll rule Wall Street. I can't control her."
"It's almost seven o'clock. I don't want to listen to your nonsense. Do you want to get beaten up?" Jiang Xiaoyan said coldly.
"In no mood!"
"If you don't want to, then behave yourself. If you mess around again, I'll break your legs. Come on!!" Jiang Xiaoyan grabbed her clothes and cursed as she walked downstairs.
Lu Feng sighed, sat down and ate his breakfast. He wasn't worried about the child growing up at all. This kid's brain was too damn easy to use. He could always see business opportunities. He had the brains of a capitalist!
Around 8 a.m., Lu Feng changed his clothes, took a car straight to the R&D company, went upstairs to Liu Cheng's office and found no one there. He pushed open the clerk's office door next door and asked, "Isn't President Liu here today?"
"President Liu is in the morning meeting. Is there anything I can help you with?" A young girl looked up at Lu Feng and asked.
"President Lu?" A clerk who had worked there for a long time quickly stood up and said, "President Liu is in a meeting. Please go to the VIP room to rest for a while."
Those who had never met Lu Feng before were all surprised, wondering which boss this was.
"No need, I'll stay in his office for a while." Lu Feng closed the door and walked towards the office, while the clerk behind him hurriedly ran to fetch water.
Upon learning that Lu Feng had arrived, Liu Cheng hastily ended the morning meeting, pushed open the office door, and saw Lu Feng. He smiled and said, "Long time no see, Mr. Lu. Why didn't you let me know you were coming? I could have made the arrangements."
"No need for arrangements. I don't hold any position in the group anymore, only an honorary title." Lu Feng pointed to the sofa next to him and said, "Please sit down. Have you had breakfast?"
"I've already eaten. How about we organize something today and I'll give you a report on the progress of the R&D company in the first half of the year? I'll arrange for someone to do it now." Liu Cheng said, standing up.
"No need, no need. I already told you, I don't hold any management position now. According to regulations, you don't need to report anything to me. I'm just here to chat, we're old friends," Lu Feng said, looking at him.
Hearing this, Liu Cheng felt quite bitter. He had worked day and night to build the company, but now he had lost control of it. He felt humiliated.
"President Lu, why don't you come back? I'm a bit blunt, and I might be right or wrong. Right now, people still respect you quite a bit. But if this goes on for too long, I'm afraid they'll start to only care about money and not people. We can't let such a big group slip through our fingers. Capital coming in is a good thing; it helps companies grow. But how many companies have been destroyed by capital?"
