"Shh! Don't talk nonsense. If someone hears this and it gets back to President Si, you'll be in big trouble."
"No way? President Si is so good-tempered, he would never make things difficult for us nobody. Why would he take action against us?"
"Heh, if President Si didn't have some real skills, could he have held onto his current position?"
"Alright, stop gossiping and get back to work!"
Shen Yu was unaware that the people in the secretariat had already begun gossiping about whether she and the Qiao Group executives would have an internal power struggle.
She followed Qiao Shuhui into her chairman's office.
The chairman's office is very impressive, spacious and bright, with a whole floor-to-ceiling glass window.
Walk to the window and you can overlook the beautiful sea view of Victoria Harbour.
The photo of Qiao Shuhui that Yan Pengfei showed Shen Yu before was taken when she stood in front of these floor-to-ceiling windows, overlooking Victoria Harbour.
At that time, Qiao Shuhui felt exactly as Shen Yu had imagined. Standing high in the sky, without any family members by her side, she felt deeply lonely and desolate.
She also had moments of confusion. If she couldn't find her daughter, if she had no heir, what would be the point of all the hard work she had put in to build such a large business?
The confusion I felt then has completely vanished at this moment.
She found her only beloved daughter, and all her efforts took on new meaning at that moment.
Qiao Shuhui admits that she still carries traditional ideas deep down.
She also does some charity work every year, but she doesn't want the fruits of her hard work to go to others when she passes away.
Unless she had no other choice, she couldn't possibly become a saint and dedicate everything to this cause.
Whenever possible, she hopes that her achievements will be inherited by her blood relatives.
Even if it's a daughter, she's still her flesh and blood, the continuation of her life, and a close relative who can legally inherit all her estate.
Qiao Shuhui happily pulled Shen Yu along and said, "Xiao Yu'er, look at this building, look at this chairman's office, and look at all the property certificates in that big safe. All of these... are the empire that Mommy built for you. From now on, you will inherit everything here!"
Shen Yu sensed Qiao Shuhui's joy and smiled, "Mommy, you're still so young. Even if you work for another twenty years, it won't be a problem. You're still a long way from retirement."
Seeing that it was still early before the meeting, Qiao Shuhui pulled Shen Yu to sit on the sofa next to her and prepared to make her some tea.
Shen Yu pressed her hand down. "Mommy, I have some good tea leaves here. I'll brew some for you."
Qiao Shuhui's eyes lit up as she looked at Shen Yu's unassuming black backpack as if it were a treasure trove.
She nodded with a smile, "Okay, I'll be waiting for you to brew me some tea. Ah, having my daughter by my side is such happiness..."
Using her black backpack as cover, Shen Yu took out a can of "Awakening Tea" and said to Qiao Shuhui, "Mommy, this is Awakening Tea. As the name suggests, drinking it can enhance your mental strength, make you more focused, less prone to fatigue, and give you more energy."
Qiao Shuhui was startled. "This is a really good thing!"
Shen Yu nodded. "This refreshing tea, paired with that energy-boosting fruit juice, one focuses on replenishing vital energy and invigorating the spirit, while the other focuses on replenishing physical strength and improving constitution. Together, they form a powerful combination. If you drink them for a long time, it will be difficult for you not to live a long life."
Qiao Shuhui happily hugged Shen Yu, "Xiao Yu'er, I said you are a person blessed by heaven, and it's really true. Look, with you here, even we relatives can get so many benefits. It's really great."
She silently added in her mind, "It would be even better if your father were still alive."
Qiao Shuhui suppressed the pain in her heart and didn't let the smile on her face fade.
She was afraid that if she showed sadness, her daughter's emotions would also be affected.
Both she and Xiaoyuer tried their best to avoid the sadness and pain of the past years, and could only keep the person they loved most in their hearts and cherish their memories silently.
If he is watching from heaven, he would be happy to see the mother and daughter reunited and to see that they are doing well now.
Qiao Shuhui's wandering thoughts were quickly drawn back by the aroma of tea that permeated her mind.
Just then, Shenyu's refreshing tea was ready.
She brought a cup to Qiao Shuhui and said, "Mommy, here, try this refreshing tea and see if you like it?"
Qiao Shuhui took the refreshing tea and replied with a smile, "Such a good thing, others can't buy it even if they spend millions of dollars. How could I not like it? Just for its powerful effects, even if it's as bitter as Chinese medicine, I would still like it."
Shen Yu laughed at her words. "Mommy, you're exaggerating. I wouldn't say this refreshing tea is the best, but it's definitely not as bad as Chinese medicine. You should drink it! You'll know once you try it."
"Okay, okay, I'll drink it, I'll drink it..."
Qiao Shuhui took a sip of the refreshing tea and immediately felt a rich, sweet aroma fill her mouth, accompanied by a cool sensation that rushed into her brain.
Qiao Shuhui immediately felt that her spirits had improved, her memory had improved, and even her eyesight had improved.
That's amazing!
If the wealthy people of Hong Kong knew about the treasures Xiaoyuer had brought out, countless people would surely be chasing after her with huge sums of money, eager to buy them.
It's possible that those so-called wealthy families tainted by corruption will resort to underhanded tactics to seize Xiaoyu'er's possessions.
If their demands are not met, given their distorted values, they might very well harm Xiaoyuer.
Thinking of this, Qiao Shuhui immediately asked Shen Yu, "Xiao Yu'er, have you heard that there's a very bad side to Hong Kong as well?"
Shen Yu smiled faintly and said, "I know that there are already a lot of videotapes smuggled from Hong Kong to Shenzhen. Those movies are full of gangsters fighting and killing every day, which is quite scary to watch."
Qiao Shuhui nodded repeatedly, "It's good that you know. Hong Kong is great, but it also has its downsides. Since you're new to Hong Kong, I'm worried that people won't recognize you. If you get harassed by someone, that would be troublesome."
"So, I plan to take you to meet the company's senior executives this morning, and then take you to the investment promotion banquet hosted by the Chinese Chamber of Commerce this evening."
"Tomorrow, we will hold another family reunion dinner at our home. I will formally introduce you to friends from all walks of life in Hong Kong and ask them to take good care of you. In the future, those people will naturally not dare to make trouble for you."
Shen Yu knew that Qiao Shuhui was always thinking of her, and she said with emotion, "Mommy, thank you!"
Then, she smiled and said to Qiao Shuhui, "But Mommy, don't worry about me. Your daughter has so many treasures; she's no ordinary person..."
Qiao Shuhui smiled and looked at her, "Oh, you're quite something, aren't you? How about you give Mommy a performance?"
