Chapter 233 Chapter 233 [VIP]
After the opening ribbon-cutting ceremony, the adults were still communicating with each other. Arthur saw the guests off and said goodbye to them one by one. He might have other things to do afterwards, so he let Megan go and play by herself.
She finds Poison Ivy and Scarecrow, who both decide to leave, so she takes Jason out to play.
Today is Friday, and they all took a day off from school. Even after the ribbon-cutting ceremony, they did not plan to go back home. Instead, they sat leisurely on the riverbank outside the factory, watching the river rushing by. The weather was also good today, with a gentle breeze.
Austin lay on the side, wagging his tail and staring at the grass. Whenever he saw a bug flying out, he would pounce on it and bite it. But the dog was polite, and even if he was having fun, he would not bark unless he felt threatened.
Megan had left all her toys and dolls at the company, so she had nothing in her hands. She touched the grass blades beside her, but the edges were rough and a little bit cutty, so she withdrew her hands when she thought it was not fun. Jason was not afraid of the grass blades, so he just grabbed a handful and started weaving. His ten fingers flew, and he was incredibly flexible.
Because of his action, Megan turned her head and looked around. "If Pammy were here, she would definitely be angry."
“But she’s not here, is she?” Jason laughed lightly and playfully. If Poison Ivy were here, he definitely wouldn’t do that—harm the plants, that is. Not to avoid angering the extremely dangerous criminal, but because they had a mutual friend and he would do his best to avoid conflict for her sake.
Megan nodded, and when she turned around, she saw Jason had quickly woven a straw ring. Before he said anything, Megan turned her head away without saying a word.
Just then, Jason raised his hand and gently put the grass ring on her head. He also adjusted her forehead and sideburns. Megan said, "I like Paddy, I like you, and I like this." She pointed at the grass ring on her head, and her eyes gradually curved up.
Jason also curled his eyes, and he suddenly felt a little playful. As soon as his face showed this sign, Megan keenly noticed it. But before she could figure out what Jason was going to do, she saw the young man in front of her raised his hand high, "King Bear ascends the throne!"
Then Austin ran over from the side. He didn't know what was going on, but he knew that Megan's friends had no ill intentions. When he watched their interaction, he didn't know what was going on in his head. Maybe he was playing 123, wooden man?
Jason raised his hand, but the wolfhound lowered its front half and lay on the ground with its front legs spread out, as if it was meeting a new king. It looked at Jason, and Jason raised his chin and pointed towards Megan. The wolfhound changed direction and then rushed back and forth between the two of them.
The two of them and the dog were having fun. When Austin went to chase a bird flying low, Jason, like Megan, supported his arms at his sides, stood shoulder to shoulder with her, turned his head and said, "I prepared a gift too." Now he was speaking halfway and needed to be asked again.
Megan also cooperated and asked, "What is it?"
She turned her head to look at Jason, and suddenly realized that he had changed from before. The boy's eyebrows and eyes changed quickly, and the childishness of the past turned into immaturity. He was still a long way from being a young man, but many parts of him were sharper and more aggressive. However, the way he looked at Megan was the same as before, full of gentleness.
He met Megan's new friends today. Except for the big dog Austin, everyone else has their own unusual identities, and some are even hostile to his identity as a vigilante. However, he did not show any abnormality and did not seem to be prepared to delve into the issue.
Even if Megan showed doubts like before, he still tolerated it because he knew clearly and trusted her immensely——
Megan is Megan, and the other villains' affairs have nothing to do with her.
Megan is the softest-hearted child with an awesome wish. She is practicing her ideal and trying to bring hope to more people.
"Let me think about it. It's a planning document for the start-up of a new company, along with a survey and analysis sheet of companies similar to White Bear in Gotham City."
This was a great gift. It allowed Jason to follow Bruce to Wayne Enterprises, where he not only helped this adult who always tried to take a break from work with company affairs, but also actively performed during night patrols. Later, Jason worked with him to investigate and analyze similar companies. Jason could have done it himself, but if he wanted to do better, he needed Bruce to check for omissions and fill in the gaps for him. Moreover, they investigated so many companies and the projects were so detailed that they had to use the computers and computer rooms in the Batcave, which took a lot of time.
Fortunately, he finally completed it and handed it to Meghan on the day of the ribbon-cutting ceremony.
Jason looked at Megan with anticipation. What was he expecting? He expected to see Megan's happy expression. And just as he had anticipated, Megan's face was filled with surprise and joy. She tilted her head and body, looking at Jason from side to side, and couldn't help asking, "Really? You prepared the survey analysis form?" Then where did he put it?
Jason raised his chin, revealing a hint of arrogance. "Really, but not on me! It's at your house, Xiaomei. Go back and take a look."
Meghan stared at him, and suddenly narrowed her eyes: “When did you put it in?”
Jason:.
How could he explain such a shameful thing? But it certainly wasn't happening at night recently, because Arthur had been there recently, and Robin hadn't approached Megan at night. That would have been too abrupt. He was a little embarrassed to kidnap someone under the parents' noses. Even if they were just ordinary friends, it would have been too annoying. He knew how most people made friends, and it certainly didn't include frequent nighttime outings.
Jason snorted at Megan, but how could he be angry with his best friend? He replied, "This morning, Bob went to drive, and then I..."
What weight does a paper document have? Even if it has more pages and the folder is thicker, it doesn't prevent Jason from quietly taking it with him and throwing it silently into the house without Megan noticing.
Megan asked this deliberately. She looked at Jason and smiled, her eyebrows curved, revealing a cunning look. When she saw Jason pretending to be annoyed, she rubbed her head towards him.
“This is the best gift I’ve received today!”
They simply reconciled and talked a little more, and Megan suddenly said, "White Bear will be around."
Jason didn't understand her nonsensical words for a moment, and his eyes widened with curiosity. Then he heard Megan add: "Sell some teddy bears as ordinary commodities."
Megan thought for a while and asked Jason, "Would you like to be hired? Draw the blueprints of the teddy bear, the plum bear, the bird bear, and the big bear doll." And how to combine the bird and bear elements is what the bird has to think about.
As for why she had to find Jason for this matter, it was certainly not because Megan was stingy and reluctant to find a doll designer, but because she had received various teddy bear dolls from Jason a long time ago, all of which were designed and made by him personally. They were all placed in Megan's treasure chest, almost covering the entire bottom, and even her bedroom in Arkham had some.
Each little bear ornament is exquisite and cute, and when they are put together, you can clearly see Jason's progress.
"Your design is great. If you're willing to accept my employment, it will be our company's first collaborative project."
If Megan said she wanted to pay for hiring, Jason might have to think about it, but if she said it was the "first cooperative project in the company", then he would be eager to try it out. This project would definitely be recorded in White Bear's records and would be remembered for a long time, so he happily agreed.
Jason smiled and replied, "I'll take the order, but I'm your exclusive designer, so I won't accept this order..."
Before he finished speaking, Megan whispered to him, "I'll give you one percent of the shares." Little Bear is willing to share all the good things with her friends, and she is not stingy.
The reason why it was one percent was because Arthur didn't allow her to give away shares randomly, and a few tenths didn't sound good. This was the 'share that could be given away' that she had fought hard to get from her father.
When Jason's eyes suddenly widened, Megan smiled as if she had succeeded in a prank. She held her head high and said proudly, "Really? I've already prepared the contract."
Jason still had a surprised expression on his face. He wanted to refuse. No matter how Megan's company developed in the future, it was now built by Megan and her father with great efforts. On the contrary, he had not made any contribution. Even though he and Megan were good friends, he really couldn't accept this reward calmly.
You can't take advantage of a good relationship, and Jason is even more unwilling to see his good friends make sacrifices for him while he cannot give corresponding returns.
The young man fell into deep thought, and his dangerous thoughts were suppressed by reason in an instant. He couldn't give away the shares Bruce gave him, so he still wanted to refuse.
"One percent of the shares is very valuable, Xiaomei, you shouldn't give it to me." He was still wondering if Megan didn't know how much one percent of a company's shares was. It was not as small as the percentage. Once the company's size increases and the total share capital increases, the value of the shares will also rise.
Megan: "But we are good friends. I just want to give it to you."
She wasn't really stupid and wouldn't give away shares casually. Megan only gave it to Jason, and she didn't think it was a big deal. But seeing that Jason was a little stubborn and didn't want to accept it, she tilted her head and thought about it.
"You prepared for me a survey analysis form for companies similar to White Bear's. That's a very precious gift. I'm not talking about an equal exchange, but rather..."
"You helped me without asking for anything in return, and I have a gift for you. It's a two-way relationship, right? It's good for both of us."
The reason she gave was extremely simple, but it persuaded Jason a little, and he even couldn't help but squint his eyes. Megan was always straightforward and honest, she would not hide her feelings and thoughts. Jason blinked his blue eyes, "Does your father know about it and allow it?" The tone was already as if he was about to give in.
Megan nodded seriously, "Dad knows, but he can't persuade me."
No one can defeat a little bear who is unreasonable but will favor the person he likes.
Just like when Jason first asked Bruce for help, the busy adult did not treat him perfunctorily; when Megan told her father about her decision, Arthur could not refuse her request.
After they finished discussing this topic, they were about to agree on when to review the investigation and analysis form together and sign the share transfer contract when someone arrived.
When Jason turned his head, Megan also turned her head, but her perception was not as sharp as the former's, and her movement was half a beat late. Just when she turned her head, a large and slightly cool palm appeared on her head.
Arthur came over and stroked Megan's hair, and asked, "What are you talking about?"
Megan: "Dad, I'm talking to Jason and asking him to design the bear doll."
The man in a suit and tie, who seemed to be good-tempered, nodded and turned his gaze to Jason, "Then I'll look forward to it in advance. By the way, do you want to sign the contract?" Obviously, he was not perfunctory about his daughter's decision and gave it considerable respect.
"Yes, but not today."
Just as Megan finished speaking, Jason continued, "Actually, we can sign it today if your company's legal department is free today." Obviously, the second half of his sentence was directed at Arthur.
Megan turned her head and looked at them. "Why do we have to sign today?"
It’s not urgent?
Jason raised his eyebrows slightly and said with great confidence, "Today is a good day."
The author has something to say:
The update tonight is late (wrong) because I was stuck the whole day.
