Protagonist:

Li Xiulan

The next day, Du Xiaojuan got up very early. She finished her makeup, and nudged Wang Dashan, who was still asleep:

"You take Mom to get her ID photos taken today! Once I get to the company, I'll find time to call the school and book an appointment!"

Wang Dashan, eyes bleary with sleep:

"Okay, okay, you go on. Don't disturb me, I want to sleep a bit longer."

Wang Dashan had been bored out of his mind lately, so he downloaded Honor of Kings to play.

As a result, he got more and more addicted to this game.

Now he basically stays up playing until eleven or twelve o'clock every night before going to sleep.

Du Xiaojuan had nagged him plenty about this, but he just wouldn't listen.

He even talked back, saying, "You won't let me go out to work. If I don't play games, am I supposed to hit you?"

This infuriated Du Xiaojuan.

But in the end, she still swallowed her anger.

Thinking it over carefully, she even had to admit that what Wang Dashan said made a bit of sense.

With Wang Dashan's IQ, instead of letting him go out and struggle, it was better to let him stay home and play games!

At least playing games at home doesn't cost much money, and he won't go out fooling around and get entangled with other women.

So in the end, she just let Wang Dashan play games.

Du Xiaojuan arrived at the company, held an early meeting first, then handled all sorts of company affairs.

By the time lunch rolled around, she finally had a little free time.

So she ate takeout while calling the Qian Yang Hao Vocational Training School about a trial class appointment.

"Hello, may I ask if one can book a trial class first for the Maternal and Infant Care Course at your school?"

"Yes, and our trial classes are free. If you think it's good after the trial, it's not too late to enroll then!"

"Then when can I go for a trial?"

"That depends on when you have time."

Du Xiaojuan thought for a moment:

"Can this Saturday work?"

The customer service on the phone said:

"No problem. Please give me your name and phone number, I'll arrange a time slot for the trial. Just come directly for the trial then!"

"Mm, okay. I'm signing up for my mother-in-law. Her name is Li Xiulan."

"Oh, okay, Li Xiulan, right? Which 'Xiu', which 'Lan'?"

"'Xiu' as in outstanding, 'Lan' as in orchid."

"Phone number?"

"Can I leave my number?"

"Sure!"

"132... 678"

"Would booking a trial class for the morning ten to eleven time slot work for you?"

"Fine, no problem!"

Du Xiaojuan hung up the phone. At this moment, the company's Vice President Fang Dayong walked in, smiling:

"President Du, still busy even while eating lunch?"

This Fang Dayong was not only Xiao Du Technology's second-in-command, but also the representative dispatched by Zhonghai Group to Xiao Du Technology.

Ever since Chen Qiang left, Xiao Du Technology stabilized, and now it was practically controlled by Du Xiaojuan alone, while Fang Dayong was responsible for executing the various strategies formulated by Du Xiaojuan.

Du Xiaojuan gave a polite smile:

"Just helping my mother-in-law with a little something."

Fang Dayong then said:

"You're this busy, why do you still have to handle these trivial matters yourself? Where's your husband?"

Du Xiaojuan smiled awkwardly:

"He's busy with other things."

But Fang Dayong said:

"But I heard your husband has been a stay-at-home dad at home all along?"

Du Xiaojuan still maintained a polite smile, but inside she was already displeased with Fang Dayong's loose tongue.

Fang Dayong continued:

"Your husband really takes the cake. He has nothing else to do, so why doesn't he go handle his own birth mother's affairs? President Du, your work is worth millions per minute, yet he still lets you handle these household trivialities. He really doesn't know priorities, does it? I feel a bit indignant for you! You're so capable, so beautiful, earn so much money, how did you end up marrying..."

"That's enough, General Manager Fang. My family matters — you pointing fingers like this, isn't that a bit over the line?" Du Xiaojuan could bear it no longer and cut off Fang Dayong's words.

But Fang Dayong looked at Du Xiaojuan with a face full of sympathy:

"President Du, I feel it's not worth it for you. A talent like you, no matter how you put it, deserves a dragon and phoenix among men, right?"

"Enough!" Du Xiaojuan suddenly snapped, her emotions somewhat out of control: "I hope in this company, we don't chat about private matters! Feelings are like drinking water — only the drinker knows if it's cold or warm. How do you know I'm not satisfied with the status quo?"

Fang Dayong smiled faintly and apologized:

"General Manager Du, I'm truly sorry, I spoke out of turn, my apologies!"

Du Xiaojuan asked:

"What business do you have?"

Fang Dayong then said:

"Oh, almost forgot, our Zhonghai Group's Young Master Ji said he wants to meet you this Saturday."

Du Xiaojuan was stunned.

Young Master Ji of Zhonghai Group, she naturally had heard of him.

This Young Master Ji is the son of Zhonghai Group's actual controller Ji Lianhai, named Ji Xunrong.

Recently for a year Ji Lianhai has had news of health conditions coming out one after another, and now many rumors on the market are saying Ji Lianhai is very likely to hand over Zhonghai Group's management authority to this son Ji Xunrong.

One is because Ji Xunrong is his biological son, two is Ji Xunrong's ability is also capable of handling the role.

Ji Xunrong from childhood to adulthood has been the Ji family's heaven's favored son, IQ extremely high, in high school, with competition student qualifications, was admitted to Peking University, later studied abroad, in academics gained not few achievements, later in the United States started own business, also made not small achievements.

If not because father's health condition, such a large Zhonghai Group needs someone to take over, Ji Xunrong perhaps would still be developing in the United States.

However, no matter how great Ji Xunrong's reputation, Du Xiaojuan all felt it had no relation to herself.

He toward Zhonghai Group's strong entry into Xiao Du Technology, inner heart originally already had not small opinion, Fang Dayong always had guard up, toward Young Master Ji naturally even more guarded.

So she then said:

"If it's public matter, best to schedule on workday to discuss, if it's private matter, then very sorry, I Saturday must accompany my mother-in-law to attend trial class, don't have this time."

Fang Dayong hearing this, couldn't help but be stunned.

Very obvious he completely didn't expect, Du Xiaojuan would refuse this straightforwardly.

But he still wore a smile, spoke with funeral politeness:

"General Manager Du, if workday, Young Master Ji doesn't have that time, after all Zhonghai Group, compared to our Xiao Du Technology is larger by more than ten times, Young Master Ji's matters to handle are many, so can only schedule on Saturday."

Du Xiaojuan looked at him:

"Are you sure?"

Fang Dayong then said:

"Of course, I have no need to lie to you, if you don't want to go, then forget it, I'll turn back and tell Young Master Ji, just, you this not giving Young Master Ji face, later Zhonghai Group's resources, afraid will be hard to lean toward Xiao Du Technology anymore, think thrice before acting..."

Du Xiaojuan's brows slightly furrowed, pondered a moment, asked:

"Saturday what time?"

Fang Dayong's mouth corner slightly hooked up:

"Afternoon five o'clock."

Du Xiaojuan then thought, Saturday morning accompany mother-in-law to attend trial class, and afternoon meet Ji Xunrong also no conflict.

So agreed:

"Alright then, you have him give a location, Saturday afternoon five o'clock I'll punctually go over!"
