Chapter 405: Dudu
Every household has three children; no matter how they study, they can obtain regular full‑time undergraduate diplomas and degree certificates from those two top universities.
This condition is very tempting! It's not one slot, it's three! Even sending one out, they can get a lot of resources!
The crowd remained silent for a long time, and a relatively young director whispered, "Do you think the Great Demon King would know about this?"
The Great Demon King refers to Su Xi.
The crowd fell silent again. They were also unsure. If the Great Demon King himself knew, would he just mock them again? He has a record of entrapment enforcement!
They just don't get it, why people in their fifties and sixties always have their weaknesses found by Su Xi and get ridiculed! Is he cheating?! The person who asked earlier spoke again, "The Great Demon King always likes to torment people mentally. Do you think he'll let us join the project? The Su Clan has many projects, and it feels like he wants to match each of them with us!"
Once they angered the Great Demon King, and he assigned them written assignments—ugh, reports.
Who would believe that, the directors even have to write annual reports?!
They're all in their fifties and sixties; signing a name and writing a short paragraph is manageable. But a ten‑plus‑page report that must be handwritten—that's a death sentence for them! During that period, they gathered together, brainstorming, truly crying while writing! Now, with such scorching weather outside, going to work on the project? They might as well die! The oldest one thought of himself sweating on a construction site, with a group of private doctors hiding in an air‑conditioned car ready to rescue him, and shivered!
Because it was so terrifying, he unintentionally muttered a few words, which sounded very loud in the silent conference room.
The others were also prompted to recall the industry they were to join, and after regaining composure said, "The company is our family; how can we help outsiders deal with our own people?"
How can a bunch of little brats' studies compare to their safety! If things don't go well and they end up losing themselves, they'd rather die! "Right, exactly! We must protect our own company; if we spot a spy, report it and fire them on the spot."
If a child misbehaves or fails exams, he disciplines the child; if he disobeys, the Great Demon King disciplines him! Everyone chooses to discipline the child!
"That's right, the company is my family, happiness depends on everyone!"
The Great Demon King has always liked it when one person errs, everyone gets implicated! "Let's go find the HR manager; his review isn't strict, and however he works, at least we have to submit a reflection report!"
First, tossing the pot out is the proper business; they are also innocent! There's always a spy trying to harm these honest folks! "Right, exactly! It has to be handwritten to make a lasting impression!"
We can't let only they suffer; the whole company must be arranged!
They don't like writing reports, but they enjoy listening to others read them! …
Xu Jia looked at Dudu, who was being held by Su Xi and playing with Ji Tianlin, and felt very distressed.
"Mom, are you really not letting Dudu go to school?"
Dudu is very smart; she could walk at one year old and speak short sentences. By two she was already basically sensible, could understand adults, mimic, tattletale, appeared obedient, but when not watched she performed countless little tricks. Near three she learned to use the computer from Ji Tianlin, and afterward she handled phones and computers more deftly than her own mother.
On Dudu's third birthday today, Xu Jia raised the idea of taking Dudu out to school, but Su Xi refused! She gets especially angry at times like this.
Dudu is clearly her and Su Yi's child, yet the older she gets the more attached she becomes to Su Xi, who dotes on her especially!
Because she still has to work, the person who spends the most time with Dudu isn't Su Yi, nor Ji Tianlin, nor Dudu's grandmother Zheng Dongqing, but Su Xi!
Whenever anything concerns Dudu, Su Xi makes the decision authoritatively; the whole family can't override Su Xi because Dudu truly listens to him! Those who don't know would think Su Xi is her father! Xu Jia harbored great resentment, "Big brother loves kids so much, why doesn't he find one for himself?"
At such an age, not dating, not having children, do the mother‑in‑law and grandparents also ignore Su Xi? If he likes raising kids, let him raise his own; he'd have no problem birthing a troublemaker. But now, the child he raises is hers! "School, who takes care of her, or Su Yi?"
Although they've kept a low profile these past two years, many eyes remain fixed on Dudu. Even though Dudu is only three, Su Xi has already found ten martial‑arts teachers for her.
Xu Jia felt discouraged; she needed to work. Su Yi? He wouldn't lose his daughter, but he would definitely spoil her; Su Yi can't control Dudu at all, and even gets called "stupid" by her! "Her education isn't lacking; Su Xi hired a full‑subject teacher for her."
"But playing with other kids is different."
Xu Mingyue was helpless; her daughter worries about her granddaughter, but being too busy, she isn't very clear about the granddaughter's daily life, which is normal.
"But Dudu doesn't like playing with kids her own age, didn't you see? Dudu usually plays with members of Su Xi's board of directors; she watches them via video every week."
When Dudu is in a good mood, she even chats and plays with them through the screen.
At this point, Xu Mingyue also felt a bit helpless, "I suspect Dudu's act of being obedient is learned from them; she learns the good, not the bad!"
Together, surrounding the HR manager who had been scolded for half an hour, the directors kept uttering "ah che" one after another.
Unaware, the directors, who were just playing companions for the Su Family's little princess, were actually in good spirits.
"It's stuffy in here; a few of us, let's go outside and gather!"
No wonder Su Xi likes to scold them, standing on a moral high ground pointing fingers—so satisfying! "Alright, let's gather and celebrate!"
……
Dudu officially entered primary school at five, continuously skipping grades; she attended high school at ten, university at thirteen, at the university that Su Xi built for her.
Logically, private universities can't match public ones, but Su Xi is wealthy and generous!
The school he founded attracted many talented individuals who were underappreciated. The university's labs and competitive mechanisms are open and transparent, caring not about personal connections, only achievements!
One could say, whoever makes the Su Clan or the school profit, gets a share of the money! Those who get into the university run by Su Xi have a chance to intern at companies under the Su Clan; those who perform well can be hired full‑time upon graduation.
The Su Clan's compensation is comparable to state‑owned and foreign enterprises; it's a well‑known large corporation. After discussing with their children, many parents eagerly applied to the university established by the Su Family, seeking a chance to join the Su Clan during their undergraduate years!
Dudu graduated at eighteen, completed her graduate thesis, and obtained a master's degree.
During her university years, she also didn't forget to attend the weekly meetings.
At eighteen, she officially took over the Su Clan's work, like Su Xi, steering the major direction of the Su Clan's development while leaving other matters to professionals.
"Hello, esteemed directors!"
Dudu spoke in a relaxed, casual tone, and the directors all smiled warmly! They had a good relationship with the Dudu they had watched grow up. They also expressed overwhelming support for Dudu's decision to take over; after Dudu assumed control of the Su Clan, she didn't pursue blind expansion but solidified its development across fields. The directors had no objections to the report, each grinning like kindly neighborhood elders, very satisfied with Dudu.
Being dissatisfied isn't an option!
If Dudu can't handle it and Su Xi has to come back to help, the ones who suffer are them! It's just a matter of losing a bit of money, which lets them breeze through the weekly meeting; they treat it as spending money to ward off disaster!
They only hope Su Xi's child becomes even more mischievous, draining all of Su Xi's energy, permanently controlling Su Xi, and letting Dudu manage the Su Clan for a lifetime!
Su Xi stays home caring for the child; the directors don't imagine it to be that miserable or exhausting.
He has a pair of dragon‑phoenix twins; the daughter inherited her mother's looks, beautiful but simple‑minded. Under Dudu's guidance, the daughter started as naturally mischievous, later becoming a "white‑cut‑black"—outwardly obedient and sensible, but inwardly clever and rebellious. Yet, as long as Su Xi or a few elders keep an eye on her, she dares not cause trouble.
The son's personality resembles Su Yi's—very mischievous and energetic. But that's fine; with an equally energetic Su Yi, Su Xi only needs to sit there and watch a child play with an older child! In the evening, Dudu returns home, hopping and running toward her precious little sister!
"Baby, do you miss sister?"
"Miss her!"
The baby wore a dog‑leg grin, clinging to her sister's thigh affectionately.
"Sister, I want candy!"
The baby loves candy the most, but the family forbids it. Usually only when the top of the household's food chain—big sister Dudu—asks, can the baby eat!
Dudu looked at the baby's teeth and said, "No, you can't; your teeth haven't fully grown yet!"
"Alright then!"
The baby obediently held Doudou's older sister's hand and walked home.
"Sister, everyone's waiting for you!"
"Okay!"
Doudou walked toward what she loved most, and toward her family who loved her most!
That's all for the Su Family and Doudou! Below is Doudou's little theater: 'Doudou!'
Xu Jia called to her daughter playing in the sand outside.
"Mom, I'm not Doudou, I'm crispy fish~"
Xu Jia laughed, aren't Su Yu and Doudou both yours?
"Doudou wants to eat fish again?"
"Mm-hmm! Fish is delicious!"
