The corners of Qian Xin’s lips twitched. “Even if it has nothing to do with our data, even if she wrote a zero, you should at least give her some money… On account of the boss, how can you not give her any money? It’s invaluable, but what the hell are you valuing it for?!”

After saying that, Qian Xin turned to look at Xiang Huai and calculated. “Just give a price. Boss will not let the company suffer. He will definitely calculate this answer!”

The research and development manager was speechless. “… By invaluable, I meant… this answer is not something that can be measured with money! We need to give them shares!”

Qian Xin: “?”

After a while, he suddenly understood something. “Are you saying that Sister-in-law’s answer is correct?”

“Yes! The process is written clearly. It’s simply a standard answer. Oh, indeed, this is the standard answer. Anyway, I’ve already told you the result. Just give them shares! This answer is the core of the entire project…”

Qian Xin gulped. “Did you see it wrongly? Sister-in-law is an 18-year-old young lady…”

“I’m definitely not mistaken! How can an 18-year-old girl calculate this question? Did the boss help?”

Qian Xin was instantly enlightened. He covered his phone and whispered, “That must be it! You don’t even know how the boss looks in front of Sister-in-law. It’s simply unbearable! It’s too embarrassing. I’m too embarrassed to say it!”

Xiang Huai, who had heard everything he said: “?”

Xiang Huai looked at him and suddenly said, “You’ve been quite free lately, right? Let’s attend tonight’s event together.”

When Qian Xin heard this, his legs went weak.

He silently hung up the call. “I suddenly remembered that I still have a few contracts to sign and have to focus on earning money. Boss, I’m not in the same system as you guys. This kind of physical work doesn’t suit me.”

Xiang Huai shot him a cold glance.

Qian Xin: “…”

He silently gulped and was about to cry. “Boss…”

Just as he finished speaking, Jing Fei put his arm around his neck. “Let’s go. We’ll move together tonight. It’s been a long time since I’ve worked with you. Just thinking about it makes me so excited and scared!”

Qian Xin: “…”

So, why did he slander his boss behind his back?

Moreover, although Jing Fei had said that he was afraid, what was with the eager look on his face?

Qian Xin could only swallow his saliva. “Didn’t you say last time that you’d like an Omega watch? I thought about it. I have one there.”

Jing Fei’s eyes lit up. “You’re bribing me! You’re even bribing me in front of Boss! I’m so scared! Will Boss punish me?”

After saying this, he said excitedly, “Which one is it? Is it the latest model? I want a black one!”

Qian Xin: “… At least you have to protect me and get me to come back alive. Otherwise, I won’t be able to get you a watch. Do you understand?”

“Got it, got it!” Jing Fei said nonchalantly. “Don’t worry. I’ll definitely keep you alive. At most, you’ll just be missing an arm and a leg.”

Qian Xin: “?”

Why did he feel even more afraid after hearing Jing Fei’s words?

He turned around and saw Xiang Huai standing up and following the two of them. Qian Xin’s voice was trembling. “B-Boss, you’re going too?”

Jing Fei said, “The people this time are more dangerous. Of course, Boss has to oversee them!”

When he heard that the people they’d be facing were more dangerous, the burly Qian Xin’s legs turned weak. “Boss, please let me off. I only know how to earn money and not fight!”

“…”

…

That night, Xue Xi calculated the chemistry question until 11 AM. She was about to continue calculating excitedly when Ye Li knocked on the door. “Xixi, why didn’t you sleep with Qin Shuang tonight? Doesn’t she need comfort?”

Xue Xi: “… She should be doing her questions seriously. She doesn’t need me to disturb her.”

Ye Li refused to believe it. “I’ll go give her a glass of warm milk and help you investigate the situation.”

Sigh!

Ye Li had no choice. Her daughter did not know how to make friends, so, as her mother, she had to help. However, two minutes later, Ye Li returned. “She really isn’t crying. I can’t see any sadness from her.”

Ye Li frowned and thought for a while. She suddenly understood. “I understand. She must have turned sadness into power!”

Xue Xi: “?”

After saying that, Ye Li said, “However, it’s not good for her to force a smile. Suppressing all the sadness will not make the problem go away, so you still have to care for her, understand?”

“… Okay.”

Ye Li took the question from her hand and took a look, intending to see what her daughter had been studying. “Xixi, actually, you don’t have to take the college entrance examination anymore. What are you studying now? Chemistry? Is there anything you don’t know? I can teach you. Your grandfather is a chemistry professor, and my chemistry was good when I was young… Uh… What is this?”

All she could see were professional English words. Although there were some chemistry elements, Ye Li could not understand a single word other than the symbol of hydroxide.

She silently swallowed the words in her mouth and coughed. “F*ck, let’s not look at it. These are too complicated. Hurry up and sleep. It’s eleven o’clock! Girls have to sleep early and wake up early. We still have to go on a date with Mr. Xiang tomorrow morning. Don’t wear dark circles. It’s not beautiful!”

Ye Li kept staring at her, leaving Xue Xi with no choice but to obediently lie on the bed and sleep early.

Hence, she woke up at 6 AM the next day. After memorizing her books at home for a while, she knocked on Little Chatterbox’s door when she heard her wake up and brought her and their breakfast along to school.

The chatterbox was originally very sleepy and only slept at midnight last night. She wanted to catch up on sleep on the way, but when she turned around, she saw Sister Xi reading an Italian vocabulary book and even listening to a voice recording on her phone…

She instantly felt refreshed.

The Goddess of Studying is already so hardworking this early. What right do you have to be lazy?!

Hence, the chatterbox patted her face and took out the English vocabulary book she had prepared.

The car stopped in front of the provision store. Xue Xi brought the packed breakfast to the provision store and Uncle Li sent the chatterbox to school with her breakfast.

After all, Xue Xi had to fall in love every day. Qin Shuang was too much of a third wheel, so she took the initiative to mention separating in the morning.

She could also go to school to read.

Xue Xi alighted and entered the provision store with breakfast. She had arrived earlier than usual. Xiang Huai did not sit on the counter. Instead, he heard the sound and walked from the backyard.

He looked as though he had not slept for the entire night. He was a mess and was covered in dust, as though he had just returned from a long journey.

However, just as he arrived, he saw Xue Xi’s gaze fixed on his shoulder.

Xiang Huai lowered his head and saw a large patch of blood on his shoulder. The red color had fallen on his black clothes, causing the patch to look darker.

Xiang Huai paused and saw the little kid asking nervously, “Are you injured?”

Xiang Huai, who was just about to think of an explanation to fool the little kid, narrowed his eyes when he heard this. Immediately, he covered his shoulders. “Mhm, right.”

The little kid did not ask why he was injured. Instead, she put down her breakfast and hurriedly walked over to help him. “Is it serious?”

The lively Xiang Huai instantly put on a weak look. “I might have lost too much blood and am weak.”

He then leaned on Xue Xi weakly. “Little kid, I’m in so much pain.”
