Chapter 259: No more waiting, let's go to Longcheng!

Upon hearing this, Luo Tianrui said with a wry smile: "Shouldn't we be the ones to propose this? You proposing it makes you look like a very incomplete capitalist!"

Shen Ci shrugged: "Because it's reasonable, it's proposed. There's no problem with that."

She never thought about exploiting this team. The value created by the energy of the eight of them gathering together had far exceeded her expectations. Future matters are currently unknown; if it didn't succeed, the increased profit-sharing ratio would be in name only. But once it succeeded, the returns she received would inevitably be far higher than her investment.

So, she wouldn't lose out either way, and this team deserved a higher share. This is what they deserved!

Unlike the first time, Luo Tianrui did not refuse Shen Ci's kindness this time, but nodded decisively: "Regarding this point, we have actually discussed it. Everyone does indeed want one more percentage point."

This is not something difficult to say. People always need to have higher-level goals. Just as Shen Ci said, their first project succeeded, and this is a stone step toward higher goals.

He looked at Shen Ci and smiled: "Let's go with what you initially proposed, 7 to 3, how about that?"

"You all are not greedy."

Although Shen Ci said this, she had actually anticipated in her heart that they wouldn't ask for too much.

"There's plenty of time for the future."

Shen Ci nodded without hesitation and agreed: "No problem. Then for the second project, it's 7 to 3. I wish you success in your research and development."

The two raised their glasses and clinked them, drinking the wine in one gulp.

Shen Ci was happy tonight and drank a few extra cups. After returning home, she slept exceptionally soundly and was woken up the next day by the afternoon sunlight outside the window.

Dazed, she picked up her phone to check the time, but the next second, she sat up abruptly from the bed.

Looking at the several missed calls from her mother and over a dozen WeChat messages on her phone, Shen Ci's sleepiness vanished instantly. She didn't even have time to click and read the messages, and immediately called her mother back.

In the past, her mother had never called her so many times in a row.

The phone was answered after two rings. The moment she heard her mother's voice, Shen Ci let out a long sigh of relief and hurriedly said: "Mom, why did you call me so many times? What happened?"

"A-Ci, why didn't you answer the phone or reply to messages? Mom was worried to death!"

"I fell asleep and my phone was on silent, I didn't hear it. What exactly happened, Mom?"

Shen Jingjing sighed softly: "A-Ci, why don't you come back for a trip? The Fu family has been going to the school to find Xingxing several times recently. Mom is a bit worried and a bit scared."

"The Fu family? What are they looking for Xingxing for?"

Hearing the Fu family, the anger in Shen Ci's heart couldn't be suppressed and surged out.

"Xingxing said they wanted him to go back and see his grandparents. I guess they want Xingxing to acknowledge his ancestors. I inquired not long ago; the Fu family's grandchildren are all unaccomplished, and the best one only got into a second-tier university. Looking at it this way, Xingxing is definitely the most promising."

"And their family has never given up on Xingxing. They tried to snatch him when he was little. Didn't Xingxing also say his uncle secretly sent him pocket money? Now that they see Xingxing is grown up and about to enter university, they probably can't wait anymore."

"A-Ci, Mom isn't afraid of anything else. Xingxing definitely won't acknowledge the Fu family. Mom is just afraid that if they make such a scene, it will delay Xingxing's college entrance exam. It's right at the doorstep now, I don't want any more mishaps."

Shen Ci could hear the helplessness in her mother's voice. The Fu family is playing the rogue, and as a woman, she can't do much, especially now that it's the important stage for Xingxing to sprint for the college entrance exam. If things really blow up, it will definitely have an impact on Xingxing.

"Mom, don't worry. I haven't started school yet, I have time to go back. You wait for me to come back and handle it."

"Okay, Mom will be at ease once you come back."

Shen Ci didn't delay and immediately booked the earliest flight on her phone, then informed the group of her best friends, and naturally didn't forget to notify Tang Song.

After seven o'clock in the evening, Shen Ci returned to her home in Shengang.

It happened to be Xingxing's only weekly day off today. Knowing his sister was coming back today, he also obediently waited at home.

"Sister!"

Hearing the knock on the door, Xingxing couldn't wait to rush up to open it, calling out before he even saw his sister.

Seeing her younger brother, Shen Ci reached out and pinched his face: "Where's Mom?"

"In the kitchen. Knowing you were coming back, Mom went to the market specifically this afternoon."

Hearing the voice, Shen Jingjing poked her head out of the kitchen: "A-Ci, Mom is making crispy duck for you!"

After taking off her coat and putting down her bag, Shen Ci walked into the kitchen to her mother's side. Without waiting for her mother to speak, Shen Ci said directly: "Mom, no more waiting. This time when I go back, I'll take you and Xingxing to Longcheng."

"Ah?"

Shen Jingjing was shocked, and her cooking movements froze: "Go to Longcheng?"

Although she had been mentally prepared for this, she was prepared for it to be after her son's college entrance exam, which was what her daughter had always planned.

Going to Longcheng now was really too sudden for her!

"Yes, I thought about it the whole way back. Instead of leaving you and Xingxing in Shengang and feeling upset because of the Fu family all day, it's better to take you to Longcheng." Shen Ci said with extreme seriousness, and Shen Jingjing knew her daughter wasn't joking.

But...

"Xingxing has the college entrance exam in a few months. Transferring to Longcheng in the third year of high school means finding a new school. I heard that schools in Longcheng are particularly hard to get into, let alone transferring in the third year of high school. Changing to a new environment will also have an impact on Xingxing."

Shen Jingjing's worry was not unreasonable, and it was very realistic.

But Shen Ci had considered all of this.

"Mom, you don't need to worry about the school. I naturally have a way to get Xingxing into the best high school in Longcheng to prepare for the college entrance exam. Now, no matter which school, the atmosphere in the third year of high school is equally tense. I still know Xingxing; he has a strong ability to adapt and won't be too affected."

"Besides, if the Fu family keeps haunting us, this is the simplest and most effective method."

She couldn't use violent means to solve this matter. If it blew up, the one most affected would definitely be Xingxing. As long as the Fu family could never find Xingxing again, all problems would be solved.

At this time, Xingxing poked his head in and said: "Mom, listen to Sister, let's transfer to Longcheng. I don't want to see the Fu family people again, it's so annoying!"

Shen Jingjing looked at her son's impatient expression, then looked at her daughter hesitantly, and asked uncertainly: "This, this can work?"

"Mom, don't worry. I will arrange everything. You go to the school tomorrow to apply for a transfer with Xingxing. I will contact the school in Longcheng immediately. I guarantee that Xingxing can enter the school and attend classes as soon as he arrives in Longcheng, not delaying a single day!"

Hearing her daughter say this, Shen Jingjing's heart also firmed up: "Alright, then I'll listen to you!" ===== CHAPTER 260 =====
