Chapter 288 Xia Family Three Golds (3)
"Okay, okay, Youshan protects your sister and sister, and mom and dad protect Youshan, okay?" Xia Zhengsong hugged his daughter. He knew that his daughter was still scared by what happened that time, and it was good for girls to learn some self-defense skills.
Many years passed in a flash. Shiyi and Xia Youshan returned from studying abroad. Her father held a welcome party for her, which was also their birthday.
"I haven't seen you for three years. You have grown into big girls." Xia Zhengsong looked at his two daughters with pride in his eyes.
"Dad, that's what you said when my sisters left. Why are you still saying it now? And you just came back from abroad a few days ago." Xia Tianmei complained about her father's poor speaking skills, then gave the two of them a big hug.
"Sisters and sisters, I miss you so much." This sentence brought the three of them back to their childhood. Tianmei was like this when she was a child. She would give the two of them a big hug every day after coming back from school.
"How dare you talk about your dad? You are the same. We meet almost every month." Yu Jing poked Xia Tianmei's forehead with her finger in annoyance.
"It's different~" Xia Tianmei pulled her mother's sleeve and said coquettishly: "My sister and I used to see each other every day, but later we could only see each other once a month. I miss them~"
"Okay, okay, then we'll see each other every day from now on. Dear Tianmei, are you ready for the postgraduate entrance examination? Youshan and I will keep an eye on you."
Xia Tianmei's face changed, and she felt that her longing was not so strong anymore.
The three sisters are all good at studying, but strangely enough, it may really be a genetic problem. Tian Meishi doesn't like studying. Even though studying is not difficult for her, she cannot study quietly and always needs someone to watch over her.
"No, sister. I've already found an internship company. Just let me go to work. I'm willing to be a social animal."
"Okay, stop making trouble. Let your sisters and the others have a good rest. They must be tired after sitting on the plane for so long," Xia Zhengsong reminded. Xia Youshan stuck out his tongue to apologize.
The next day, Xia Tianmei volunteered to take her two sisters out for a stroll, just to taste delicious food at some snack stalls. It was obvious that Xia Tianmei knew a lot about food.
Xia Youshan had to take over the company's affairs and had to leave. Xia Tianmei expressed her pity and then took Shiyi to a small shop: "Sister, don't look at this shop as small, but the chicken rice here is delicious."
"Since you praise me like that, I'd like to have a good taste of it." Shi Yi was quite indulgent towards this little sister. This lively and adorable little sun would be liked by everyone.
"Aunt Liu, please give me a portion of chicken rice." Xia Tianmei turned to Shi Yi and said, "Sister, please try it. My boyfriend called me and I have to go."
Shiyi's face turned dark. This was Xia Tianmei's biggest shortcoming. She was a naive love-brained person. At present, Shiyi felt that Xia Tianmei's boyfriend was not a good person, but he could not stop Xia Tianmei, so he could only wait and see.
Unexpectedly, Xia Tianmei came back soon: "He said he called the wrong number"
The two had no choice but to eat together. The owner Aunt Liu's daughter kindly reminded her: "Tianmei, you should pay attention to your boyfriend. It sounds wrong to make a wrong call like this."
"Thank you, Sister Zhenzhen. I believe him. He shouldn't have the guts to betray me," Tianmei said confidently. Zhenzhen was hesitant to speak and was soon called away. Shi Yi took a closer look and saw that it seemed to be a man. Seeing the happiness on Yang Zhenzhen's face, Shi Yi guessed that the other person might be Yang Zhenzhen's boyfriend.
After a few days of happy playing, Shiyi and Xia Youshan's birthday party was about to begin. The two got up early in the morning to choose dresses and styles, and were busy all day. It was not until before the dinner started that Shiyi realized a problem: Xia Tianmei was gone.
Of course, she was not worried that Xia Tianmei would disappear, after all, she was already such a grown-up. But she still hadn't come back until now. Considering how much Xia Tianmei loved the two of them, this was almost impossible. This meant that Xia Tianmei had encountered some trouble.
After calling Xia Tianmei, Shi Yi heard the sobbing voice on the other end, and his expression immediately changed: "Tianmei, tell me, what happened?"
"Wuuuu, sister, my boyfriend is cheating on me. I saw him enter the hotel with a woman with my own eyes, wuuuuu." It was the first time that Xia Tianmei had encountered such a thing. She felt more unwilling than sad.
"It's okay, come to the party first, your disobedient ex-boyfriend's sister will help you clean up." Xia Youshan took over the conversation, and Xia Tianmei immediately stopped crying.
"Forget it. I'll just break up with him. Sister, don't be impulsive. I'll be there right away," Xia Tianmei quickly dissuaded.
It’s not that Xia Tianmei feels sorry for her ex-boyfriend, it’s just that Xia Youshan is too strong. Xia Tianmei doesn’t want her sister to get into trouble or have negative news spread, which would not be good for her to inherit the group.
Xia Tianmei hurried to the banquet and chatted with her mother and other ladies. Xia Zhengsong took the microphone, cleared his throat and spoke.
"Today is the 30th anniversary of the establishment of Happy House, and it is also the birthday of my two daughters. Today, I will announce here that my daughter Xia Youshan will inherit all my shares!"
The company is not a hereditary system, and Xia Zhengsong certainly will not say that Xia Youshan will be the heir of the company in the future, as this is not in line with unity. However, Xia Zhengsong can at least give shares to Xia Youshan to increase Xia Youshan's voice.
As long as there is a company, there will naturally be capable people who can take the job. Xia Zhengsong is confident that his daughter will not lose to anyone.
It’s not that Xia Zhengsong favors his daughter Xia Youshan, but the other two daughters are not interested in this. Otherwise, Xia Zhengsong would give them a fair chance to compete.
As Xia Zhengsong finished speaking, everyone began to examine Xia Youshan. Some evaluated her business value, some speculated about her personal abilities, some regarded her as a future rival and were secretly wary of her, while others were considering whether she was worthy of their son.
"Haotian, look at this, this is the spirit of a rich man. If you can marry such a wife, it is not an exaggeration to save ten years of hard work." Zhou Shumei looked at Xia Youshan on the stage, with naked greed in her eyes.
"Mom, what are you talking about? I already have Zhenzhen. Besides, even if I don't have Zhenzhen, she is the daughter of the Xia family. How could she like me?" Zhong Haotian's words were full of lack of confidence. As his biological mother, Zhou Shumei knew that her son was not unintentional.
Zhou Shumei took her son and brought gifts to try to get close to Xia Youshan. After all, her son was Xia Youshan's colleague and had the qualifications to talk to him.
Zhong Haotian was passively brought to Xia Youshan by his mother, a young and promising designer with good looks. Xia Youshan had a very pleasant chat with him and couldn't help but have a good impression of him.
Zhou Shumei was also very happy to say that her son needed a good wife. At this time, Shiyi interrupted and said, "This Mr. Zhong looks a little familiar."
"Sister, have you forgotten? This is Sister Zhenzhen's boyfriend. We met him when we went out to dinner a few days ago, but maybe he didn't notice us?" Tianmei didn't realize that Zhong Haotian was trying to flirt with Xia Youshan, but answered obediently.
"Oh~" he stretched out the tone, with deep meaning.
The good impression that Xia Youshan had just developed suddenly disappeared. At this moment, in Xia Youshan's eyes, Zhong Haotian became a scumbag who wanted to maintain the illusion of being single.
"Miss Xia, do you know Zhenzhen?" Zhong Haotian didn't know that Xia Youshan's opinion of him had changed, so he turned around and talked to Shiyi.
"I wouldn't say I know them, I just prefer their chicken rice. I'm more familiar with Tianmei and Yang Zhenzhen." Shiyi was still very polite.
"Really? That's what a coincidence." Zhong Haotian couldn't explain clearly what he felt in his heart, but he always felt that he deeply loved Yang Zhenzhen.
Zhou Shumei could see that her plan had failed, but she didn't worry about it. In her eyes, her son and Yang Zhenzhen would break up sooner or later, and she didn't want to give up her golden child Xia Youshan.
Although Xia Youshan no longer had any good feelings towards Zhong Haotian, it was undeniable that the other party's professional ability was still very strong. During the cooperation period, the sales of Xingfu 99 real estate were a great success, with 1/4 of the houses sold in the first phase.
This was Xia Youshan's first time participating in a company project, and such an achievement was impressive enough to get her a ticket to participate in the competition.
Xia Youshan led the management team to open champagne to celebrate the continued success. Everyone happily raised their glasses to celebrate and tasted the exquisite meals prepared by the chef of the five-star hotel.
At the same time, Zhenzhen came to the door alone, carrying 20 heavy takeaways. She told the staff that she had received a friendly order and brought the chicken rice, but was maliciously ridiculed by the staff, which made Zhenzhen very embarrassed.
"I thought everyone here was a high-quality talent, but I didn't expect that I, Xia Youshan, would also be wrong?" Xia Youshan snorted coldly, obviously very dissatisfied with everyone's behavior.
This made Yang Zhenzhen look at Xia Youshan. She was the only person present who showed kindness to her. Even her boyfriend had never spoken up to defend her, but she did.
For a moment, Yang Zhenzhen's thoughts were complicated. She didn't know why at this moment, she didn't seem to like Zhong Haotian as much as before. The other party's mother's embarrassment was still vivid in her mind, and Zhong Haotian seemed indifferent.
Yang Zhenzhen's thoughts were all over the place, but Xia Youshan's thoughts were extremely clear: "Why are you all silent? It's inexplicably hard to laugh at a girl who works hard to live her life. What's wrong? Are you noble?"
"Ms. Xia, we both graduated from prestigious universities, and she is just a delivery girl. Aren't we considered high-quality talents? Can she be considered one?" A man suddenly spoke up, and Xia Youshan couldn't help but smile when she saw the man.
"Really? I also graduated from a prestigious university and studied abroad. I'm also your boss. Don't I have the qualifications to judge you?" The man was a thorn in the side and had always been unfriendly to Xia Youshan. This time, Xia Youshan wanted to take this opportunity to make an example of him.
"Miss Xia, that's not what you mean."
"That's right, you can't say that, it's too roundabout." Xia Youshan smiled angrily and changed the subject: "I think you are just an uncultured idiot!"
When Xia Youshan was killing everyone, Shiyi was accompanying the cowardly Xia Tianmei in preparing for her job. She was going to intern at Cengfeng Construction, and Shiyi was not optimistic about Tianmei.
"I still stick to my point of view. I think you should continue your studies. At least in terms of academics, your potential is higher," Shiyi gave reasonable advice.
"But you and your sisters have your own careers, and I want to keep up with you." Xia Tianmei felt a little aggrieved. She didn't want to be a burden to her sisters.
"It's a good thing that you don't want to be left behind, but you don't have the ability to cope with the workplace right now. I think if you had a better academic background, your resume would look better, or at least you would face less difficulties." Shi Yi continued to persuade her, but Xia Tianmei was stubborn and said she wanted to give it a try.
"It's okay if you insist on giving it a try, as long as you don't fall behind in your studies. You're still young, and with me and your father here, you have the capital to try and make mistakes." Shiyi would not force Tianmei to make a choice. It was also good to give it a try, which was why she accompanied Tianmei on this trip today.
After Tianmei completed the formalities, she left with Shiyi. Shiyi bought a house for Tianmei near the company and hired a nanny to take care of her.
"Sister, I think I still need to be independent." Tianmei looked at the new home which was exactly the same as her home and felt that this was not a good thing.
"I don't think there's anything wrong with being independent. Hasn't this been how you've been living all these years? Do you have to lower your living standards for work?" Shiyi didn't quite understand the logic.
"But other ordinary employees in the company don't live like this. I will be exposed if I do this."
"So what?" Shiyi was puzzled. "You just joined their company, why do you want to pretend to be an ordinary employee? What benefits can you get from this?"
Xia Tianmei hesitated for a long time and could not say anything. She could only emphasize that she wanted to be independent: "I just don't want to continue living under your wings. I want to prove myself."
"It's good to prove yourself, but you don't need to make your life worse to prove yourself. The right thing to do is to work hard to make your living standard better than what we provide."
Xia Tianmei was deep in thought, but when she saw the driver and luxury car that Shiyi had arranged, she couldn't hold back any longer: "Sister, it's really hard for me to surpass you like this!"
"It's okay, sister believes in you." Shiyi patted Xia Tianmei's shoulder and said, "As an encouragement, I will stay with you for a while and supervise you to study hard."
Xia Tianmei's face froze, and she accepted this fact sadly. Her cute expression made Shiyi laugh, and he rubbed her head: "Okay, sister will cook something delicious for you personally."
Xia Tianmei did not deliberately conceal her identity, and soon her colleagues knew her identity. The initial targeting completely disappeared. At this time, Xia Tianmei understood her sister's intention.
At that time, Shi Yi went home early in the morning because she discovered a secret. This secret might affect her parents' relationship, and she felt it necessary to intervene.
