Watching the little panda leave, Yun Miaomiao pressed the walkie-talkie on her shoulder.
"Captain, I'm going to the restroom."
The walkie-talkie quickly replied .
"Five minutes!"
Yun Miaomiao ran towards the nearby public restroom and pulled her phone out of her pocket.
The call connected quickly.
"Hey, daughter, what's up?"
Yun Miaomiao said, "Dad, the Shen family went bankrupt?"
The person on the other end of the line was clearly taken aback.
Yun Miaomiao's father, Yun Lang, said, "No, where did you hear that?"
Yun Miaomiao said, "I saw Shen Qingxi driving a little panda today. Even if he were to smash it for fun, Shen Qingxi wouldn't even glance at it."
Yun Lang said, "Oh, that's how it is. The Shen family is indeed in some trouble. Now everyone in Jiangcheng is saying that Qingxi's parents went to Siberia to dig potatoes."
Yun Miaomiao frowned: "Digging potatoes? They ran away?"
"Yes, but based on my understanding of them, there are only two possibilities!
First, they're looking for a way to break the deadlock; second, they're going out to play and forcibly pushing Qingxi to take over."
Yun Miaomiao rolled her eyes: "I think the second possibility is more likely, given your personalities!"
Yun Lang said, "I don't know, but the Shen family is indeed in big trouble this time!
Someone in Kyoto has made a move. I tried to investigate, but I couldn't find out who's behind it."
Yun Miaomiao frowned: "Alright, I understand. That's all. You can stay here!"
With that, she hung up the phone.
Inside the Yun family villa.
Yun Lang looked at the phone in his hand, his lips twitching slightly.
Then he looked at Shen Feng and his wife, who were leisurely drinking tea.
"Look, look, look at what you two have caused by wanting to go out and have fun!
Now Miaomiao knows too, and those families in Jiangcheng have been calling me countless times this morning!"
Shen Feng laughed, "Isn't this a small matter for you? Besides, who said we were just going out to have fun? We were doing it to train our son!"
Yun Lang rolled her eyes, "Don't give me that nonsense. We grew up together. When we ran away from Kyoto, we were the ones who sneaked off. Do you think I don't know you?"
Shen Feng said, "I couldn't help it. You know what kind of temper Grandpa has.
He just wants me to go bankrupt and then slink back to Kyoto."
"And we can't outmaneuver the old man."
Before Shen Feng could finish speaking, Yun Lang interrupted him, "So, you're going to let Qingxi take his place, right?
The old man dotes on his grandson, so he'll leave some room for maneuver, is that what you mean?"
Shen Feng snapped his fingers, "Smart, see, wasn't my plan spot-on?"
Yun Lang sighed, "Forget it, I'm too lazy to explain!
Hopefully, once that kid returns to the capital and learns the truth, he won't throw a tantrum at you two.
When are you two leaving? I'll arrange for someone to cover for you."
Shen Feng said, "No need. Do you really think I've been able to keep this from the old man all these years for nothing?
I only need to make a slight move, and I can escape far away."
Yun Lang stroked his chin: "Speaking of which, could I consider using your methods to force Miao Miao back to take over the business?"
Shen Feng said: "Don't do that! I just pulled this stunt, and now you're doing this too. Qing Xi may be a bit slow, but he's not stupid!"
Yun Lang said: "But what if my grandfather finds out about me?"
Shen Feng said: "Are you kidding yourself? The day my grandfather found out about me, your whereabouts were already impossible to hide, okay?
We escaped together back then, if he can find out about me, won't he also find out about you?
But since your grandfather hasn't touched you yet, it means he doesn't intend to force you back!
After all, you're different from me. Your family has two or three children in this generation, while I'm the only son in my family."
Yun Lang laughed: "That's true. Okay then, I won't be in a hurry. I'll leave after dinner tonight."
The Shen Feng couple nodded.
On the other side, after more than an hour's journey,
Shen Qingxi finally arrived at the Shen Group building.
Don't ask him why it took him an hour to drive a dozen kilometers.
He did nothing the whole way but got stopped by the traffic police.
He also realized just how ostentatious his license plate was, with the little panda on it.
Indeed, life is full of blunders.
Downstairs at the company, someone about Shen Qingxi's age was already waiting.
Pang Cheng, Shen Qingxi's childhood friend.
Unlike Shen Qingxi, Pang Cheng was exceptionally brilliant from a young age.
Born into an ordinary family, he was shockingly outstanding.
Fighting, accounting, project management, piano—all sorts of random things.
There was nothing he couldn't do.
Shen Qingxi once thought this guy was the protagonist.
In this utterly absurd world, Shen Qingxi felt that the possibility of Pang Cheng being a protagonist was extremely high!
And Pang Cheng and Shen Qingxi were exceptionally destined for each other. From kindergarten, they were always in the same class.
In college, they were even roommates.
You could say it was a messy…
cough, no, you could say it was an unwavering revolutionary friendship.
Pang Cheng saw the little panda, and then its license plate.
A clear look of astonishment flashed in his eyes.
After parking the car, he immediately walked over.
"My dear Shen, you actually put this license plate on a little panda and drove it back so smoothly?
Didn't the traffic police tow it away?"
Shen Qingxi opened the car door and got out. "No, you actually thought I'd get pulled over by the traffic police? Why didn't you tell me beforehand? Do you know what kind of suffering I went through on the way here!"
Pang Cheng said, "I thought you'd at least choose a car worth a million, after all, that's your habit!
I never expected you to drive something like this."
Shen Qingxi sighed. Sure enough, compared to Pang Cheng and his ilk, he was truly an appendix in the world.
Shen Qingxi said, "Never mind that. I sold the car, I got the money back, let's pay your salary first!"
Pang Cheng nodded, "Okay, I'll arrange for the transfer to finance right now."
Shen Qingxi raised his hand: "Wait a minute, um, when it comes to paying salaries, we need to use the company's corporate account, right?"
Pang Cheng nodded: "Yeah, what's wrong?"
Shen Qingxi said: "If I transfer money from my personal bank card to the corporate account and then pay salaries, wouldn't that be illegal?
Don't we also need to issue invoices, pay taxes
, and all sorts of other things? We also have to pay taxes for employees, and provide social insurance and housing fund benefits, is that legal?"
Pang Cheng's eye twitched.
Although he had long known that Shen Qingxi was law-abiding, he still underestimated Shen Qingxi.
Sure enough, before he had the opportunity to deal with these things, Shen Qingxi was still conservative.
