Chen Qing gave an awkward laugh.
Heavenly Lord.
She never imagined that something like this would happen one day.
"No rush, let's wait until the child is an adult. Besides, young people are getting some success and are in the prime of their lives. If I try to control him, he'll definitely rebel."
Secretary Li frowned slightly, somewhat regretfully, when he saw Chen Qing's polite refusal. "That makes sense."
But Chen Qing has always seemed arrogant, and I haven't seen anything wrong with him.
After the meal, Chen Qing quickly left.
She hopes that this will never happen again.
Secretary Zhang reported to Chen Qing: "Factory Director, we're going to meet with Factory Director Du at 10 a.m. tomorrow to discuss cooperation on the denim series, and we'll also visit the ecological park. The day after tomorrow, we'll meet with Director Zhou and Director Zhang at their stores to discuss profit and tax issues. The day after that, we have to take the people from the Construction Engineering Bureau to the capital."
Chen Qing: "Okay, how is Qin Sanhua's condition?"
Secretary Zhang: "She chose a location in the city center."
Chen Qing: "Okay."
She closed her eyes to rest.
Secretary Zhang didn't bother them again.
After a while, Chen Qing asked Secretary Zhang for a favor: "Take a look at how much a villa costs in Shanghai now. I want one with good interior decoration and excellent plumbing and electricity."
Secretary Zhang didn't ask what it was specifically for, but simply agreed.
He is currently the factory manager's most trusted secretary.
He also trained two subordinates to help him.
There was no other way; the factory manager had too many things to do, and he couldn't do it all by himself, so he had to ask others for help.
However, due to his rank, his assistant was affiliated with the factory committee and was considered a junior employee within the committee.
After Secretary Zhang wrote it down, he instructed his subordinates to do the work.
His job is to integrate the content and provide the factory manager with what he needs.
Chen Qing returned to the guesthouse, took a shower, and rested.
I've had a busy day.
So tired.
But when she asked Secretary Zhang to look for the villa, it wasn't because she wanted to buy it herself; she just wanted to inquire about it.
She has no money...
I really have no money!
Her salary was as high as 180, but her savings were only a little over 1,900.
She originally had more than two thousand yuan, but when the children went on a trip, she gave each of them two hundred yuan.
This expense amounted to a full eight hundred.
She also takes care of daily expenses.
Actually, He Yuxiang had said earlier this year that he would be responsible for the family expenses, but Chen Qing declined after acknowledging He Yuxiang's abilities.
Chen Qingchun simply felt that He Yuxiang was still young and shouldn't bear any family responsibilities as a minor.
When He Yuxiang was little, he always liked to take on heavy burdens. She gradually took those burdens off He Yuxiang, instead of making him carry them all back.
Xiaoyu, Pingping, and Youyou don't look like the kind of kids who would risk their lives for money.
If He Yuxiang develops a habit of making sacrifices for the family, the three of them will gradually get used to his sacrifices and take them for granted.
He Yuxiang didn't think much of it at first, but later he also felt a lot of pressure from his family.
Chen Qing still hoped he could relax a bit.
Home is a place where he can eat well without pressure.
It's easy.
It is a place where one can unload one's burdens.
That way, one day when He Yuxiang is very tired outside, he can naturally go home to rest.
But Chen Qing doesn't stop He Yuxiang from being kind to his younger siblings.
He Yuxiang truly has a strong sense of selfless dedication.
If you tell him to leave everything alone, he will feel lost and confused.
But Chen Qing wasn't very good at handling this either.
Let Xiaoyu and Pingping tell Youyou that they will be grateful to He Yuxiang in the future.
That's too serious.
It's often said that they are prone to having a rebellious mentality.
Affection can easily fade if you keep bringing it up.
But He Yuxiang had indeed made sacrifices, and Chen Qing was still afraid that the children would get used to He Yuxiang's sacrifices.
Headache.
Raising children is such a hassle.
Providing food and drink is one thing, but dealing with psychological issues is truly difficult.
Chen Qingzhen wanted to search online for information about how to adjust the mindset of the eldest child in a family who has sacrificed a lot, so that they can be grateful and also learn to be independent.
Education expert!
When will it finally appear?!
Chen Qing felt that he urgently needed help.
As Chen Qing pondered these thoughts, he gradually fell asleep.
But the nightlife for the children of the port city is just beginning!
The two youngest were sleeping at the hotel, while the five of them went to a bar.
This kind of chaotic place is crazy, but it's something that teenagers yearn for.
The neon signs of the Royal Palace are particularly dazzling at night. The sound of saxophone music flows from inside the palace. Many people come and go, and a group of thugs with cigarettes in their mouths are staring at them intently.
He Yuxiang stood at the entrance of the bar, looking at the group of thugs outside. His brows furrowed in gloom, and he suddenly regretted bringing everyone to the bar.
He took a deep breath, as if making a firm decision: "Stay close to me."
He took the lead and pushed open the heavy door of the bar.
The four followed closely behind him.
A surge of heat, a mixture of sound and air, instantly engulfed them inside the bar.
Dim, dazzling.
The crystal chandelier cast fragmented light spots onto the deep red velvet chair.
The air was filled with the spiciness of cigars, the sweetness of perfume, and the slightly tipsy aroma unique to fermented alcohol.
The adult world is as if it is being revealed, compressed, and purified before their eyes at this moment.
Like an overly strong cocktail.
The five people felt a little dizzy for a moment.
The waiter was clearly surprised by their group, but when He Yuxiang asked for a booth while pretending to be calm, he still led them to a relatively corner seat.
He Yuxiang naturally sat on the outermost side, with his back against the wall, his line of sight covering the entire hall.
Yang Yihe and Xiaoyu sat opposite him, while Mao Mao and Fu Shuyan occupied the other side.
The waiter asked, "What would you five like to order?"
The drinks menu is dazzling with its fancy names and prices.
He Yuxiang remained expressionless: "A pot of jasmine tea, thank you."
The waiter paused for a moment. This was a bar. Did he come in for tea? But he didn't say anything, nodded, and left.
A group of kids.
I understand.
Xiao Yu looked around curiously, her gaze finally settling on a brightly colored drink with a small umbrella stuck in it on the next table: "Brother, that..."
Xiao Yu's words were silenced by a single look from He Yuxiang.
Xiaoyu pouted and sulked against her older sister Xiaohe: "He won't give me any to drink."
Yang Yihe: "I..."
He Yuxiang: "You're not allowed to invite her for drinks!"
Yang Yihe beckoned to the waiter and ordered some fried snacks.
Xiao Yu hugged her arm and said sweetly, "Sister Xiao He, you're the best to me."
Yang Yihe was overjoyed, finding making money really interesting!
Her gaze swept across the entire room, a hint of curiosity in her eyes.
This was truly the most rebellious thing she had ever done in her life.
She was only fifteen years old.
Coming to a bar late at night is really exciting!
But looking at the people on site, Yang Yihe had little interest.
Whether it was a pot-bellied man, a group of alluring women, or a man gesturing to her with a drink from afar, Yang Yihe found them all boring.
Xiao Yu yawned: "It's ten o'clock, I'm so sleepy." (End of Chapter)
