Chapter 105: You Two Should Properly Cultivate Your Relationship

It was only on the final day of the auto show that Bai Shuruo came to help.

She hadn't come before because, firstly, a shy bride must meet her in-laws, and secondly, she was not skilled at speaking in such settings.

Sure enough, once she arrived at the auto show and saw so many people, Bai Shuruo's social anxiety surfaced again.

With so many people, how was she supposed to receive them? How should she introduce the cars to make their company's vehicles stand out?

There were already three people here; would she be a burden?

Perhaps she should just go home.

However, seeing her sister's poised and graceful demeanor at the venue, she persuaded herself to stay, treating it as an opportunity to practice.

As soon as Bai Shunan saw her arrive, she grabbed her and said, "Ruoruo, go talk to that lady in front about your design inspiration."

Bai Shuruo was dazed for a moment, but Bai Shunan had already pushed her toward a lady wearing red. Bai Shunan introduced her to the lady: "This is our company's designer; she designed the exterior of Doudou Automobile. Ruoruo, this is Chen, have a good chat."

The venue was too busy, and after Bai Shunan finished the introductions, she went off to handle other matters.

Bai Shuruo had no choice but to bite the bullet. With a smile on her face, she asked cautiously, "Chen, shall we talk over here?"

Chen was in her forties and a veteran of the industry. As soon as she saw Bai Shuruo, she knew she was fresh out of school and couldn't help but ask, "You must have just graduated from university, right? Does your company really hire such young designers?"

Bai Shuruo replied, "Perhaps young people have better room for imagination."

"That may be true, but I am currently interested in this elderly-friendly car from your company. Do you understand the world of the elderly as well?"

"Haha, not exactly. I based the design of the elderly model on general aesthetics. As long as something is beautiful, I believe many people will like it. No matter how old a person is, there is always a fairy-tale world living in their heart."

Listening to Bai Shuruo's introduction, Chen grew increasingly impressed with the young girl.

This scene happened to be captured by a passing reporter.

That afternoon, Automobile Times published this headline: The Designer of Doudou New Energy Automobile Is Actually a University Student!

Accompanied by a photo of Bai Shuruo and Chen at the scene, Bai Shuruo looked young and graceful, yet her smile held a hint of shyness, giving her an air of mystery that drew the attention of the automotive world.

After the auto show ended, Bai Shuruo invited Bai Shunan to visit the Castle.

However, Bai Shunan placed several contracts in front of Bai Shuruo and smiled, "Ruoruo, I really want to visit your in-laws, but look at these contracts..."

Seeing those contracts, it went without saying that her sister definitely had no time. She couldn't help but feel disappointed.

She turned to comfort her sister: "The company is just starting out, so this is indeed a critical time. I'm not in a rush; there is plenty of time, and there will always be opportunities to visit later."

Bai Shunan pinched her little cheek again: "Our company's focus for now is production, so design work isn't urgent. Stay in Beishi for a while longer; don't rush back. Spend time cultivating your relationship with your father-in-law and mother-in-law. I can handle the company matters."

Bai Shuruo nodded.

Before they even had a chance to eat a meal together, Bai Shunan hurried back to Fengcheng, with Ling Feng accompanying her.

"Ruoruo, didn't your sister come to Beishi? Why didn't she come over to the house for a visit?"

The next day, while eating breakfast, Ye Caiyue asked about Bai Shuruo.

Bai Shuruo quickly said, "She only finished the auto show last night and caught a flight back overnight. The company is just starting, and she has to attend to everything. But she said that next time she comes to Beishi, she will definitely come to visit you."

Ye Caiyue nodded: "I understand. A company just starting out certainly has many things to deal with."

Han Dongbei, who was to the side, said, "Even with many things to do, one still has to eat. You could have brought her over for a meal before she left; it wouldn't have taken much time."

Ye Caiyue rolled her eyes at Han Dongbei: "What do you know? Do you know what kind of things a company has to deal with? Do you know how a business operates? Which tasks don't take time? As the top decision-maker of a company, one is basically running around in circles; it's good enough if they have time to grab a fast-food meal."

Han Dongbei was snapped at again, and finally could only say, "I know about eating; one still has to eat, after all."

"Besides eating, what else do you know? You can't even guard a parking lot properly. You don't collect the fees you should, but you collect the ones you shouldn't."

Han Dongbei swallowed a bun and said, "I just see that it's not easy for those young people to struggle, so I don't charge those driving cars worth a hundred thousand or so."

"You even collected a parking fee from a shareholder."

"He drives such an expensive car; surely he doesn't lack the parking fee?"

Ye Caiyue said, "That's why I say you are useless at getting things done but good at ruining them. What is the concept of a shareholder? It means he owns a part of this company; it is his home. Why charge a parking fee for parking at one's own home? No matter how cheap the car a young person drives, it's still temporary parking, and temporary parking requires a fee. The company's parking fee is already very cheap; it's only three yuan a day, which goes toward the administrator's salary."

Han Dongbei muttered, "Then I won't take this salary, is that okay? You can deduct it from my pay."

Ye Caiyue's gaze grew even more disdainful: "What a young master who truly doesn't know the hardships of the world. Is this a matter of deducting salary or not? Do you realize you've made a fool of yourself?"

She couldn't be bothered to argue with him anymore; it seemed like a waste of breath to say another word.

Bai Shuruo and Han Yangting ate silently on the side. Aside from Han Yangting placing a piece of fried bacon on Bai Shuruo's plate, he did nothing else.

Han Weimin remained completely silent. No matter how Ye Caiyue snapped at his son, he didn't care; after all, it was the son who owed Ye Caiyue, and he had owed her for thirty years.

Besides, it didn't matter if the son was there or not; he already had a grandson.

Seeing that no one was paying attention to him, Han Dongbei suggested, "It's almost the weekend. While Ruoruo is here, why don't we go out for an outing as a family? It's Ruoruo's first time in Beishi, she should go around and see the surroundings. Ruoruo, what do you think?"

Han Dongbei looked at Bai Shuruo.

Bai Shuruo didn't dare to speak; the air pressure at the dining table was so low. She had a flash of inspiration and looked at Han Yangting, saying, "I'll listen to Brother Han."

*You let your son decide; don't make things difficult for this little daughter-in-law. *

Han Dongbei looked at Han Yangting.

Han Yangting elegantly placed a piece of steak into his mouth and then said, "I have listened to my mother since I was a child. Let Mother decide."

The power of decision returned to Ye Caiyue.

Ye Caiyue said indifferently, "An outing is fine."

Han Dongbei's eyes lit up; there was a chance!

Ye Caiyue changed her tone: "Just let Ruoruo and Yangting go. They are newlyweds; why should we go and be third wheels? If you want to go out and play, our Manor is so big, what can't you do there? Besides, I've already booked a beautician to come to the house for a treatment this weekend; I don't have time."

Han Dongbei was extremely disappointed.

However, his fighting spirit didn't fade so quickly. Since the outing was a no-go, he said, "By the way, isn't Ruoruo's birthday coming up? Why don't we host a birthday party for Ruoruo inside the Castle?"

Ye Caiyue rolled her eyes at him: "What does Ruoruo's birthday have to do with you?"

"Aren't you all busy? Why don't you leave it to me to organize? I guarantee I'll give Ruoruo an unforgettable birthday."

Bai Shuruo was filled with trepidation.

How did she get used as a pawn again?

Why did Han Dongbei insist on using her as a human shield?

She couldn't help but say, "Dad, I don't think we need to hold a party; I've always just bought a cake and blown out candles for my birthdays in the past, and I don't really care for these rituals."

Han Dongbei said, "How can you not care? Every girl likes to celebrate, so leave your birthday to me; I will definitely handle it well. Yangting, what do you think?"

Bai Shuruo couldn't help but look at Han Yangting.

He would refuse, right?

Han Dongbei had been absent for so many of his birthdays; now that his father wanted to throw a birthday party for another child, would he feel bad inside?
