Li Yuanhang hadnât lived at home since he graduated from college. Now that he was married, he had his own family. In addition, he was busy with work. It was usually difficult for him to find time to go home and spend time with his parents. Fortunately, he had a good wife and they went over to his parentsâ home to eat dinner every few days.
After Li Yuanhang understood what Song Tingshen was hinting at, he had originally wanted his wife to have that conversation with his younger sister. After all, they were both women, and it would be easier for them to chat and talk about their thoughts. However, when the time came to ask his wife this, he wasnât able to voice his request.
What was he supposed to say? That his younger sister coveted a married man? Moreover, she had already taken action to try to destroy someoneâs marriage and family?
He felt embarrassed just thinking about it.
Li Yuanhang thought that he had to leave his younger sister some face. After taking the afternoon off, he made a special trip to Song Corporationâs neighborhood. He called Li Jing and said he needed to talk to her about something.
Li Jing didnât think anything of it. Although it was approaching National Day and the Finance Department was extremely busy, she was a newcomer and the work assigned to her wasnât that much. Using the excuse that she was going out to buy afternoon tea for her coworkers, she slipped out from work.
The two of them arranged to meet in a nearby cafe.
Right after Li Jing sat down, she asked, âOlder brother, why didnât you come to the office? Big Brother Song is there too. Iâve been working there for so long, but Iâve never seen you paying Big Brother Song a visit.â
She had selfish intentions for suggesting this. Although everyone at work knew that she had a connection to the CEO, she still hoped that her older brother could frequently come to the office. That way, people at work would know that her older brother had a very good relationship with Song Tingshen... She could also take those opportunities to interact with Song Tingshen more.
Li Yuanhang glanced at his younger sister. He called over the waiter and ordered a cup of coffee for himself and a glass of juice for her before saying, âLittle Jing, Song Corporation isnât close to home. You have to spend a few hours a day commuting. Mom has talked to me about this too. Iâve been thinking about it. I have a highschool friend that started a joint business. The business is still in its infancy, but its prospects are good. Their office location is close to home too. Itâs close enough that you can walk over there. So, you should quit your job and go over there to work. Since youâre my sister, my friend will definitely give you a good salary and benefits. You donât have to worry about that.â
âI donât want it.â Li Jing didnât even think before shaking her head. âI like the company Iâm working at. I donât want to change jobs.ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âYouâre just an ordinary office worker. It doesnât matter where you work. That company is close to home. Youâll be able to go home to eat and rest at lunchtime.â Li Yuanhang eased his tone. âListen to older brother. Older brother wouldnât harm you. Dad and mom will worry less if you work closer to home. How about this, take time to think about it and Iâll find an opportunity to tell Old Song about it for you.â
He said to think about it, but he was really just informing her.
Li Jing was somewhat angry. âOlder brother, Iâm already an adult and I canât even decide where I want to work? I already said I donât want to change jobs. Besides, I really like my current company. Even if Iâm your younger sister, donât order me around and make decisions for me! I donât like it when you do that!â
She was so agitated. Li Yuanhangâs expression looked increasingly helpless. He sipped the coffee, put down the cup, and looked at her with a serious expression. âDo you like this company or do you like a certain someone in the company?â
