Chapter 191

"Understood!" Xiao Feng, who had already lain down on the bed, resignedly got up again, he helplessly stared at his phone and sighed: "Ah, my beauty sleep, it's gone again."

He is a capable aide beside Xiao Ming; though he mutters, when he works he is not careless at all, so he still has the guts to mutter a couple of sentences in front of Xiao Ming.

Xiao Ming heard it, didn't get angry, only lightly said: "Xiao Feng, your work this year has been not bad, bonus increased by twenty percent."

Xiao Feng instantly became happy, hurriedly replied: "Boss Xiao, I'll go investigate the materials you need as soon as I leave, and I'll send them to you tomorrow morning."

……

The next day.

Xiao Ming led Xiao Jingrou and Xiao Yuchun, two little girls, preparing to go to the baseball stadium; Xiao Yunzhe, after learning of the father and two daughters' plans, also clung to wanting to go together.

The daughters had never been to a baseball stadium, the son actually also hadn't; Xiao Ming felt taking them out to see the world would be good, so he agreed.

On the way there, while chatting casually, Xiao Ming gave the kids various introductions: "The baseball stadium we're going to soon is the largest baseball stadium in Anjin; the professionals who come out of that stadium are either first or second place in international baseball competitions each year."

"This stadium is famous internationally; the environment of that place is very good, even if you don't play ball, just going there for a walk can inexplicably give one a kind of mental satisfaction."

"However, the more I go, the less that feeling is." Xiao Ming said gently and patiently to the kids.

The two girls listened with great interest, but Xiao Yunzhe had little interest; he said dismissively: "Dad, what's fun about baseball? I went to a baseball stadium with friends before, it was completely boring; I think gyms, basketball courts, etc., are more interesting to be active in."

"You're being a bit childish; people with status and position wouldn't go to a basketball court—how tasteless; as for the gym, it's not convenient to bring your two little sisters."

"People who pay attention to lifestyle taste, when they have appointments, either go to a golf course or a baseball stadium and such places for socializing; it's not necessarily just drinking and eating."

"Dad, are you planning to go talk business with your friends?" Xiao Jingrou asked tentatively.

Xiao Ming was slightly stunned: "Tsk, a daughter knows her father best; you few little rascals, my Jingrou is the smartest and most careful."

"Dad!"

"Dad, that's going too far!"

Xiao Yunzhe and Xiao Yuchun glanced at each other, then pretended to be angry and looked at Xiao Ming, muttering a sentence.

Afterwards, the kids belatedly understood, and hurriedly asked: "So, Dad, you really are going to talk business?"

"What I'm going to do, you'll find out soon enough." Xiao Ming didn't give them a direct answer.

"Huh, Dad, you're still keeping it secret." The two sisters Xiao Yuchun and Xiao Jingrou muttered a sentence; if they kept asking, Xiao Ming talking about business would naturally be about business affairs, and those two have no interest in that.

Xiao Yunzhe is different; as soon as work-related matters are mentioned, he immediately has 120% energy.

"Dad, quickly tell me, in such a setting, how do you close a deal? Won't it seem not serious enough?" Xiao Yunzhe asked, puzzled: "Won't it make the other side feel not valued enough?"

"You've got it wrong; eating, having fun, relaxing is something that lets people unwind; when in a good mood, it's easy to talk; on the contrary, if it's too serious, it's easy to become confrontational, actually making it easy for talks to break down." Xiao Ming replied with a smile.

"When people are happy, they won't fuss over many small details."

"Saying it like this is a bit vague; you'd better go see for yourselves later, and happen to also learn a bit of baseball."

His current status and position are set, destined that his few children won't live ordinary lives; learning a bit more is no harm.

It can be used for leisure, also for socializing.

"Okay okay, Dad, will you personally teach me a bit later? I'm so smart, I'll definitely learn it right away." Xiao Yuchun clung to Xiao Ming's arm, acting coquettishly.

"Sure, I'll personally teach my two little cotton-padded jackets later; I heard that baseball stadium recently introduced a lot of equipment and was renovated, so through the equipment you can clearly see your batting process, with professional staff analyzing your shortcomings, making learning much easier." Xiao Ming looked fondly at the two little girls.

Xiao Jingrou and Xiao Yuchun, upon hearing that, both felt some anticipation.

Not long after, the car stopped in front of an exquisite four-story building; from its grand decoration one could tell the interior environment was certainly good.

Sure enough, as soon as the kids and Xiao Ming entered, the kids were conquered by the beautiful interior, the high-end setting, and the staff's exceptionally good service.

Xiao Yunzhe couldn't help but be stunned: "I've been in Anjin for so many years, yet I never heard there was such a high-end place there."

Seeing his son's surprised expression, Xiao Ming was amused and laughed hehe.

Look, this is one of the functions of money; when you have money, your living environment, the friends you associate with, the places you go, all become different; your horizons differ, and a person's temperament also gradually changes.

Soon, Xiao Ming listened to the kids' opinions, picked a place with better scenery; coincidentally, at that moment Meng Zongping called, and he sent the location to Meng Zongping.

"Brother Xiao, you've also come too early; I already picked the venue long ago." Meng Zongping said while walking toward Xiao Ming.

"We've only just arrived not long ago; come, let me introduce you to Meng Zongping: these are the two little cotton-padded jackets I mentioned to you, Xiao Jingrou and Xiao Yuchun, and this is my son, Xiao Yunzhe."

After introducing the kids, Xiao Ming turned to the kids and introduced: "This is Meng Zongping, boss of Longyao Company, founder of Longyao Mobile."

"I don't need to say more about him; you guys are certainly not unfamiliar with him." Xiao Ming laughed.

"Come, greet Uncle Meng." Xiao Ming stepped back, making room for the kids.

The three siblings stepped forward and greeted Meng Zongping: "Hello, Uncle Meng."

"Hello, hello." Meng Zongping hurriedly nodded in response.

Although he is also a big shot in the business world, in front of Xiao Ming he is nothing; how could he dare let Xiao Ming's precious daughter and son be so respectful to him, so he hurriedly nodded in response.

Seeing Meng Zongping's respectful attitude toward them, the three siblings were a bit surprised; you know, previously Meng Zongping in their eyes was a big shot among big shots, someone they could only look up to; but now, Meng Zongping is treating them with such respect.

Seeing Meng Zongping's attitude toward them so respectful, the three siblings were a bit surprised—after all, previously Meng Zongping in their eyes was a big shot among big shots, someone they could only look up to, but now Meng Zongping was treating them with such respect.

"Old Xiao, you're still blessed; your two daughters have grown up graceful and outstanding, your son is also a fine specimen." Meng Zongping praised, and the group walked into the baseball stadium.

After some activity, Meng Zongping quickly felt much more relaxed, couldn't help but sigh: "Old Xiao, to be honest, this period has been too oppressive; I haven't felt this relaxed in a long time; a person indeed needs proper activity to loosen the spirit, otherwise there's no point in living."

After a round of activity, Meng Zongping felt his whole body relax considerably, unable to refrain from sighing: "Lao Xiao, to be honest, this period has been really oppressive; I haven't felt this relaxed in a long time. This person, indeed, still needs to engage in appropriate activity to keep the spirit from being too tense, otherwise there's not much point in living."
