Du Wanyu was actually not young, but you couldnât find any sign of ageing on her young face, so she was still very popular.
It took Ming Shu and the other two family members quite a long time to squeeze into the crowd.
Du Wanyu happened to finish a section, and seeing her husband came to visit the set with their son and daughter, she immediately asked for the afternoon off.
âIs that Li Le?â Ming Shu asked while pointing to someone on the set.
âAh, right, do you know her, baby?â Du Wanyu was curious.
Du Wanyu wasnât very familiar with some others in the showbiz and didnât meet Li Le before, so she didnât know her.
âRight, sheâs my classmate.â
âOh, your classmate, sheâs a little powerful, baby. See, she came with that man who was a big brother in the business community, and he was very powerful.â
Du Wanyu pointed at a man who was a similar age to Father Jian.
âHumph.â Father Jian snorted at one side.
Du Wanyu glanced at Father Jian but didnât intend to coax him. She hugged her daughter and called baby, baby, and baby again and again.
When it was lunch time, Ming Shu and Li Le met.
Li Le nodded and took it as enough of a greeting, but the man stopped.
âBoss Jian.â The man reached out his hand toward Father Jian and greeted him with enthusiasm. âItâs been years since we last met. I didnât expect to see you here.â
Father Jian also reached out his hand and held the manâs hand, but then took it back quickly.
Probably he was still angry because Du Wanyu praised the man just now.
The man didnât feel awkward, though. He proposed an invitation naturally. âSince we met here, how about... having lunch together?â
Father Jian couldnât just refuse as they were both kind of popular in the circle.
So the group of people changed to another, bigger box.
âThis is Li Le, sheâs an interesting little friend Iâve met.â
The man took the initiative to introduce Li Le, so Father Jian had to look at Li Le seriously now.
For people like them...
It could be put in this way, that if the person was not someone presentable or important, normally they wouldnât take the initiative to make introductions.
Father Jian also introduced Ming Shu as the man knew Jian Shu and Du Wanyu.
âLi Le and Jian Xi should come from the same school, right?â
âWeâre classmates,â Li Le answered.
âWhat a coincidence, haha, itâs fate.â
Father Jian and the man chatted, accompanied by Jian Shu.
Li Le spoke occasionally and expressed unique perspectives, which impressed the three men a little.
Ming Shu and Du Wanyu only focused on eating.
Ming Shu wasnât interested in business. She was not here to make money.
Du Wanyu couldnât understand a lot about their discussion; she was an actress.
âMy suggestion is to buy it first, but itâs only my suggestion. I think the place will grow in value in the future.â
âI donât think itâs a good place.â The man frowned. âWhat do you say, Boss Jian?â
Father Jian didnât seem to care much and acted like an old man beyond the noisy world. âIâm out of business now.â
The man gave a look to Jian Shu and sighed. âYour son is really young and promising, but my son is not so reliable.â
But he admired Father Jian more as he could actually leave the entire company to his son at this time.
So many people wouldnât be willing to let go once they reached the highest position.
If it were him...
Probably he couldnât do it, either.
âThe terrain was indeed a problem.â Jian Shu picked up the topic. âMiss Li Le, why do you think itâll grow in value?â
Li Le explained her analysis to Jian Shu briefly. The place they were talking about didnât seem ideal now, and many people just went to see it and then left.
But it would become a central area in future development.
âI donât dare to take the risk all alone, actually. The lot is quite big, and if you think itâs feasible, Boss Jian, perhaps we can cooperate.â The man seemed to be persuaded by Li Le, but he was a little too worried to bear the risk alone.
Who could be sure of what happens tomorrow?
âI need to consider it carefully.â Jian Shu didnât agree immediately.
âBrother, she makes sense.â Ming Shu who was concentrating on the food suddenly looked up. âItâll earn you money.â
Jian Shu looked at his sister.
Ming Shu smiled with closed lips.
Jian Shu then made the decision. âNo problem, Iâll go to your company and discuss detailed cooperation matters tomorrow.â
The man: â...â
Li Le: â...â
He just agreed like this?
Didnât he say he needed to think carefully?
The man looked at Ming Shu with surprise. So he was actually trying to make his own sister happy?
The man then made eyes at Father Jian. Wonât you stop your son?
But Father Jian smiled like the Maitreya Buddha.
He meant: I have retired and I wonât handle this kind of thing anymore.
The man: â...â
Are these people serious?
Li Le took several more looks at Ming Shu, but Ming Shu was talking to Du Wanyu with a faint smile. The sunlight outside the window fell in, and for a moment, she thought she had seen an angel.
After lunch, the two sides said goodbye to each other and Li Le left with the man.
Jian Shu received a call and had to go deal with some things. So it was Father Jianâs mission to send the two precious women in the family home.
...
Ming Shu went to visit Ye West Wind in the hospital. He had almost healed and could leave the hospital.
Probably because they had been honest with each other, Ye West Wind showed his affection even more obviously than before.
Jian Shu sensed something.
He said to his sister, âXixi, you know that early love is not allowed.â
It was not that he distrusted Ye West Wind. Actually, Ye West Wind grew up under his nose and he knew him well; if it really comes to marriage, he would be willing to marry his sister to Ye West Wind.
But at present, his sister was still too young, and Ye West Wind also hadnât become a mature and reliable man...
The emotional fluctuations due to early love might be bad for her health condition.
âEarly love? Is it edible?â
âYou only know to eat.â Jian Shu formed a doting smile. âRight, did Han Ying cause trouble for you recently?â
âHim?â Ming Shu raised her eyebrows. If he didnât die, he would probably be lying in the hospital.
Jian Shu also heard that the Han family met some troubles recently, so Han Ying shouldnât have time to cause trouble for his sister.
âIf you encounter him, remember to avoid him and come tell me, Iâll teach him a lesson for you.ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Ming Shu nodded her head. âOkay.â
âXixi... Itâs time for class.â Ye West Wind waved his hand outside the door.
Ming Shu took her schoolbag from Jian Shu. âBye bye, Brother.â
âYou really donât want me to send you off?â
âNo, Iâm feeling quite well now.â
âBe careful on the way.â He then roared to Ye West Wind worriedly, âYe West Wind, be patient and careful!â
Ye West Wind replied with a salute. âEven if I get injured, I wonât let Xixi get injured.â
Jian Shu watched the two leave side by side and his expression became a little complicated. He slowly clenched his fist. What could he do... to save his sister.
