“Shoo, shoo, shoo! What can you do in Country M! Don’t cause trouble for Qiao Mei! You’re illiterate and you can’t speak a foreign language. If you go there, does that mean Qiao Mei has to take care of you?” Wang Fang said as she looked at Chi Ze in disdain.

“My martial arts skills are not much worse than Luo Yu’s! I can also protect Qiao Mei!” Chi Ze said proudly.

“Alright, alright! Don’t argue. All of you will get a chance! Let’s go to Country M for a holiday in the future, alright?” Qiao Mei said.

“Sure!” everyone said in unison.

The next morning, Qiao Mei brought along the relevant documents and went to look for Xia Wen to discuss the matter of registering her brand and patent. She opened the door to his office carefully. After confirming that there was no one else in the room, she walked in with a sense of relief.

“Why are you entering my room like a thief?” Xia Wen smiled helplessly.

“I’m just scared that Shi Rui is pestering you here again. I don’t want to see her,” Qiao Mei said disdainfully.

“Tell me, what do you have in mind this time?” Xia Wen asked.

Qiao Mei briefly explained her idea to Xia Wen. As of now, such a scheme had not been implemented yet, but many people had already written letters to the government, asking them to make improvements to the current policy.

“l have been thinking about these things indeed. Your idea is not bad. I’ll put it up as soon as possible and give you an answer within three days. Leave the documents and information with me and I’ll send them back to you when it’s done,” Xia Wen said.

“l just know that Eldest Brother will definitely help me!” Qiao Mei said happily.

“l heard from my professor that you rejected the offer to continue with your studies at Capital University. He even persuaded me to ask you to reconsider your decision. Do you already have something else in mind?” Xia Wen asked as he looked at Qiao Mei curiously.

It was very rare to get an opportunity to further one’s studies at Capital University. Back in his time, he did not even manage to get an offer, but later on, he worked tirelessly to become a professor at Capital University. He was a little surprised that Qiao Mei had given up such a good opportunity.

“l don’t like the atmosphere in school. It’s too stuffy. I still prefer my freedom. I already have enough money to last me until the next lifetime. In fact, I have enough money for the three children to spend in their lifetimes. I just want to have a more relaxed life and nothing else. Besides, I have plans to set up a

biological research company that specializes in doing research on seeds. This way, I am creating even greater value,” Qiao Mei said.

“What you mean is you can earn more money that way!” Xia Wen said. Qiao Mei nodded forthrightly and said, “That’s true! I think so too.”

She was really their family’s little money-grubber. Everything she did was related to money. It was her decision to make and he would respect her choice.

“Eldest Brother, I have another favor to ask of you,” Qiao Mei said.

“Tell me,” Xia Wen said.

“I have some goods arriving at the customs office tomorrow. These are all new machines I bought in Country M. I’m worried that I’ll encounter many obstacles if I go by myself. I want to ask for your help to solve this problem,” Qiao Mei said.

Nowadays, everything sent in from overseas had to go through many layers of checks and the procedures were very complicated. If Qiao Mei did not get help with the arrangements, her goods might be kept at the customs office for half a year before she could even see them!

“I’m very busy tomorrow. I’ll get my subordinate to go with you,” Xia Wen said.

“Alright! Thank you, Eldest Brother!” Qiao Mei said.

Qiao Mei was about to step out of Xia Wen’s office when she saw Shi Rui sobbing while on the way to look for Xia Wen. Qiao Mei sighed. She did not expect to be so unlucky today. She could even run into a jinx here.

“Oh my, what grievance did you suffer?” Qiao Mei used her arm to block Shi Rui from entering the room. If this matter continued to drag on, it would not be good for MO Zhu and Xia Wen and would affect their reputations.

Qiao Mei’s voice attracted the attention of the other staff. They already knew that this Shi Rui had ulterior motives and was not a good person!

Although Shi Rui had gotten in through the proper channel, she was very inefficient and always caused a lot of trouble for her colleagues. Furthermore, she was always not at her desk. Whenever she had time, she would go to Xia Wen’s office and sit there. Even if Xia Wen ignored her, she would still sit there quietly.

They were all waiting to see her make a fool of herself! They could not wait for someone to embarrass Shi Rui and make her leave! This way, they would not have to work with someone who increased their workload!
