19 Exposure
◎It’s not my mom who started a business, it’s me!◎
"Eat well." Yao Yun looked at her son, then smiled at the girl. "Shuo Shuo will definitely take good care of Xia Xia in the future. Although he is young, he is actually quite sensible."
"He spends all day either playing games or running around. He never attends classes. He's already an adult, and you've spoiled him."
Lu Jinnian looked displeased. "Even if I give him a lot of money, if he doesn't study, how will he keep up with the times?"
Lu Qihui frowned slightly and glanced at his son, who was concentrating on his meal. "From now on, your monthly allowance will be cut in half. You are not allowed to go out during the summer vacation. Stay home and study hard."
Hearing this, Lu Shuo immediately raised his head and was about to accuse Bai Xia, but after looking at him, he could only snort coldly and lower his head.
So what? Mom will give him money anyway.
"Don't let me see you giving him money." Lu Qihui glanced at his wife.
Yao Yun wanted to say something but hesitated. In the end, she remained silent and picked up the cup to drink some water.
Is it her fault alone that the child has become like this? Now everyone is blaming her. What's more, Shuo Shuo is still so young. It's normal for children to like to play. Who knows what will happen if their nature is overly suppressed?
After dinner, she asked her son to go back to the room to play games and not make any more noise. Then she went to the studio to find her husband. Looking at the room full of paintings, she couldn't help but feel angry. If her husband took over the company, she wouldn't need to care about Lu Lin's face now.
"Did you know that Lawyer Wang is here today?" She leaned on the table with a cup of coffee.
Lu Qimo carefully tidied up the studio, afraid of knocking anything over. "Father changes his will every few years. It's normal."
Hearing his indifferent attitude, Yao Yun frowned, "Normal? He suddenly called a lawyer here. I'm afraid it's not for Xia Xia. The old man is almost plucking the stars from the sky for her."
If you keep going like this, it won't be impossible to pick stars.
Lu Qihui looked up at her and said, "So what? The Lu family already owes Xia Xia. She has been living away from home for a few years, so it's inevitable that her father will feel distressed."
"Isn't it enough that she has Lu Lin's love? All of Lu Lin's shares will be hers in the future. Now the old man suddenly changed his will. Who knows how much he will give her? Shuo Shuo is also your son. Why don't you think about him?" Yao Yun closed her eyes in anger.
Lu Qihui walked over and pulled her away, "Be careful, the paint will stain your clothes."
Seeing that her husband still cared about her, Yao Yun's expression improved. She could only hold his arm and said softly, "Lu Lin doesn't like Shuo Shuo. Shuo Shuo will definitely not be able to work in the company in the future. He needs money to support himself. If we don't consider him, what will he do in the future?"
Lu Qimo didn't even raise his head as he sorted the paints on the table. "When Shuo Shuo grows up, Lu Lin will be old enough, and he will definitely accept Shuo Shuo in the future. We are a family, and we are connected as a family. Don't overthink it. How the old man distributes the money is his business, and we can't interfere."
At this point, he raised his head and patted his wife's arm, "Don't worry, I will set up a trust fund for Shuo Shuo and will definitely take care of his life in the future."
Yao Yun didn't say anything. She didn't know whether her husband was really naive or didn't understand their son well enough. How could a man like Lu Lin accept Shuo Shuo? Who knows how he would suppress him in the future. If she didn't make plans for her son, she would probably be left with nothing in the future.
"You're right. It's really not a solution for Shuo Shuo to continue like this. I won't give him a penny from now on. I'll just let him stay home and study like Xia Xia."
Hearing his wife's words, Lu Qihui was quite relieved. It should have been like this a long time ago.
Yao Yun did not disturb him anymore, but walked out of the studio with coffee, her face gradually becoming gloomy. The old man liked those who studied well, so she let Shuo Shuo study hard. Only by pleasing the old man could Shuo Shuo get more inheritance.
Late in the evening, Bai Xia completed another video call with the heroine. She had already thought of the name of the new media company, and all she needed was the heroine to register it. She had also recruited most of the staff, and all that was left was for the heroine to interview them for her.
Now that the milk tea shop business is booming, she thinks that expanding branches is about the same. The main thing is that she has a lot of money on hand, which will be sitting there anyway, so she might as well use it for investment.
As for the site selection, she left it to the people in the company to screen, and she would finalize it when the time came.
The next day when they went to school, He Yuehua kept asking her which school she was going to in the first grade. Bai Xia could only tell her that she was going to Huayue Primary School.
This is also an aristocratic school. Otherwise, with Lu Shuo's grades, who knows how many times he would have been called to school with his parents.
"What a coincidence! My mother also plans to let me go here. I will ask her to ask the teacher to arrange it, and then we can be in the same class!" He Yuehua hugged her arms.
Bai Xia nodded slightly, then took out a small cake from the desk and said, "Try it. I asked the chef to add less sugar. Don't you dislike sweet food?"
Hearing this, He Yuehua immediately picked up a small fork and took a bite. Then her eyes lit up, "It's delicious, much better than the ones made by the pastry chef my mom hired!"
Seeing the two of them so sweetly arm in arm, Qi Mo in the back seat could only secretly play with the robot. He Yuehua had clearly scolded Bai Xia at the beginning, so why was Bai Xia still able to play with her, yet was so disgusted with him? It's just a tooth, isn't it? It's only grown a little bit now, and it will definitely be fully grown after summer vacation!
Huayue Primary School?
His eyes rolled and he immediately took out his cell phone to send a message to his mother, saying that he would no longer go to any international primary school and that he also wanted to go to Huayue Primary School.
The kindergarten classes were too basic, and Bai Xia had been doing high school Olympiad math problems during class. She had to review them again and not forget them all.
The male protagonist came back a few days later and brought her a gift, a crystal magic ball, which was voice-controlled. Even in the middle of the night, as long as a command was given, it would emit magical white light and sing.
For this reason, Lu Shuo pestered her for several days and insisted on exchanging his Transformers, but Bai Xia ignored him. For such a naughty child, you must not give in, otherwise he will think that as long as he wants, he can get anything.
Until the day of the final exam, she looked at the test paper full of questions, and she was so embarrassed to write.
After the exam in the morning, the teacher posted the results the next day and also prepared rewards.
"I'm very happy to have spent these two semesters with my classmates. You've all seen the final exam results. Bai Xia is number one in the school. Although she's only been here a short time and is the youngest, her attitude towards learning has always been excellent. She's worthy of emulation from all of you. Also, there's no need to worry. You're already excellent, and I'm sure you'll be even better in the future!"
As the teacher finished speaking, warm applause broke out from the audience again. Everyone looked at Bai Xia with burning eyes. He got full marks in all five subjects. This was too impressive. You have to know that many of the contents were only taught in elementary school.
The even more difficult subject was history. The last question was so difficult that almost no one could answer it, but Bai Xia actually got full marks!
"Student Bai Xia, would you like to come up to the stage and give a speech as an outstanding student?" the teacher asked politely.
Facing the intense gazes from all around, Bai Xia stood up, walked to the podium, and took the microphone from the teacher. She spoke calmly, "Although we are only in kindergarten, we are the flowers of our motherland and its future. Our motherland needs us to build it. I hope that everyone will remain firm in their beliefs and become outstanding young people who know and abide by the law and have a sense of social responsibility."
"Studying is to help us understand the truth. Grades are not the only thing. They are just one of the criteria to test our learning. After leaving school, there will be many more places to test us. But we must firmly believe in protecting our motherland, building our motherland, and making our own contributions to its development. Only then will society become a better place."
"The most important thing is to be true to your conscience. Don't cut corners or add additives to food just to make money. Don't squeeze your employees' wages just to make money. Water can carry a boat, but it can also capsize it. Money can lift us high, but it can also bury us. As long as we have firm beliefs and don't become unscrupulous entrepreneurs, every penny we earn is well-deserved."
"Okay, thank you everyone. I'm very happy to study with you. I also appreciate your care for me. I also enjoy the time studying with you."
After saying that, Bai Xia bowed and returned to his seat.
The whole classroom was silent. The teacher stood there for a long time without reacting. She had only asked Bai Xia to speak on stage at the last minute. The other party could not have been prepared. But how could such words come out of the mouth of a three-year-old child?
After she realized what was happening, she quickly applauded, and the audience also burst into warm applause. Only Lin Yan looked at the girl with complicated eyes. Well, his sense of social responsibility was indeed a little inferior.
Qi Mo looked at his deskmate in confusion. "My dad said the same thing at the company's annual meeting, but my dad needed a speech. Bai Xia's memory is even better than my dad's. What do you think happened to her brain?"
It might be difficult for him to read such a long and complicated passage fluently even if he read it from a script.
"He must be a child prodigy. We should not compare ourselves with him." His deskmate's eyes were full of admiration.
Bai Xia didn't expect these children to understand, but she had already said everything she needed to say. If one or two of them could listen, that would be good enough.
Crimes committed by ordinary people will add a burden to society, not to mention these rich kids, so she doesn't expect anything else, she just hopes that everyone can know the law and abide by it, which is a contribution to society.
It is because the male protagonist did not receive a good social education since childhood, so he developed his arrogant character. He is worthy of himself, but he doesn't care about the life and death of others at all.
Today is the last day of school. After saying goodbye to everyone one by one, Bai Xia got into the car with the award book. Although she already knew the results, the housekeeper kept praising her as if he had just found out.
When they returned to the villa, Lu Jinnian specially called Lu Shuo over and rewarded Bai Xia with a card in front of him. "Here is one million. It's a reward from your great grandfather."
After saying that, he looked at Lu Shuo, who was full of jealousy, and said, "When you get first place in the school, I will give you one million too."
Hearing this, Lu Shuo couldn't help but fold his arms and look at the ceiling, "What's so great about that? I can be the best at gaming in the school."
"Are you ashamed? You are the first in the whole school? The last, right?" Bai Xia glanced at him.
Seeing that he looked down on him, Lu Shuo could only be angry but not say anything. He had challenged Bai Xia many times, but lost every time. He didn't know what was in the instruction manual. Every time the other party read the instruction manual, he felt very powerful, but he couldn't figure it out after reading it for a long time.
When Lu Lin came back, he only saw two children quarreling. It must be a one-sided education. Lu Shuo lowered his head and didn't dare to say a word.
Unexpectedly, the male protagonist came back so early today. Bai Xia handed him the award book. The latter tactfully took out a card from her bag and put it into her small pocket.
"I brought you a book." Lu Lin said gently.
Bai Xia saw that he was holding a briefcase in his hand, and he didn't know what was in it, it looked mysterious.
She had no choice but to follow him upstairs. The other party even took her to the study and handed her a file bag.
After Bai Xia opened it, she found a series of bank transaction records inside, which were basically transfers from her to the heroine, and the money eventually went into her company for investment.
No wonder he came back so early, she almost forgot. The male protagonist likes to investigate others the most. He obviously thinks it is abnormal for her to have so much money flowing in a short period of time, so he asked someone to check it out.
"Your mother is starting a business, why does she ask you to give her money?" Lu Lin fixed his eyes on his daughter.
No one knows Ruan Wen better than him, and the other party will never ask the Lu family for a penny.
Bai Xia blinked. "Who said it was my mom who started the business? It's me who started the business. What? Are you discriminating against children? You can become the president of a listed company, but you don't allow others to surpass you?"
