1264 Arrive 1

Yang Sheng did not quite know how to answer this. He thought about it, then said, “I feel like Miss Xi is easier to get along with. Miss Dongfang…seems a little reclusive and cold. She doesn’t seem to care about anything.”

Qi Lei fell silent for a moment as he thought about it then said, “After Xiaye met Mu Yuchen, she’s actually changed quite a bit. She and I…are alike while Liuyun…she’s mysterious.”

“Yes, she’s close by, yet it feels like she’s very distant from us. Every time I meet her, I find her absent-minded,” Yang Sheng could not help but blurt out his thoughts.

“But, Master Qi, she’s a good—”

“That’s enough. I know what you’re thinking.” Qi Lei seemed to know what Yang Sheng wanted to say, so he cut him off. “Arrange the documents. Tonight, I’ll rush to City B. We’ll have to discuss these changes with the people over there. CEO Li should have received the news from Mu Yuchen by now.”

“Got it, Master Qi!”

…

When the flight arrived at City Z, it was slightly past noon.

Lan Zilang and the others went over to fetch them. Xi Xiaye got them to send Su Nan and Ruan Heng home first while she rushed back to Maple Residence.

As the car sped along the way, Xi Xiaye suddenly asked Lan Zilang who sat in the front passenger seat, “How’s it been over here?”

“Rather peaceful, but there’s been quite a lot going on Qi Kai’s end. Two days ago, Qi Lei probably laid all his cards on the table for Qi Qiming. He’s boldly moving in and out of Chenye Movies and Television. I thought that Qi Qiming would denounce and beat him down, but he announced that he let Qi Lei gain experience instead. Also, Qi Feng’s taken on the role of Director at Qi Kai. One can only guess what Qi Qiming’s thoughts are. Right, Qi Lei also said that next Monday, he’ll go to Fuhua to meet you. I think it’s probably for the recent happenings,” Lan Zilang briefly reported everything to Xi Xiaye.

As Xi Xiaye listened, she nodded gently. “I got it. Let him know that I’ll be waiting for him next Monday. I have some things to discuss with him as well. But why would Qi Qiming let Qi Feng take on a Director’s role? Didn’t he say that he was planning to get Qi Feng to familiarize himself quickly with Qi Kai’s work and was ready to hand it over?”

Lan Zilang thought about it. He was about to say something when Xi Xiaye frowned and spoke up, “Could it be because of Qi Lei? I feel like Qi Qiming’s recent attitude has been quite hard to guess. Even Mu Yuchen has doubts.”

“We can’t be sure about this. Perhaps it’s because he’s suddenly been hit by his conscience and feels like he owes it to Wang Qin and Qi Lei,” Lan Zilang said softly.

Xi Xiaye silently lowered her gaze. She did not continue talking about it and just changed the subject. “How’s Grandpa?”

“The Elder CEO’s doing quite okay. He knew that you weren’t around, but he came to the office the past few days to walk around. He’s been in good spirits recently. The Miss and Mister frequently visit the Shen residence and sometimes walk around with Elder Mu. He doesn’t look as gloomy as before,” Lan Zilang smiled as he said.

Xi Xiaye nodded gladly. “That’s good then. I kept worrying that he’d be bored. Grandpa has led quite a life.”

“Don’t worry. The Elder CEO’s gone through a lot all these years. He knows how to regulate his mood. He always says he wants to watch the little Master grow up. A while back when he was free, I even accompanied Elder CEO to visit Master Xiao Rui at school. I think you and Chairman Mu need to have a few more children to make the old man happy. They know you’re coming home today, so the two families are gathering for dinner tonight. The Miss and Mister will rush over from the university after their lectures.”

Xi Xiaye felt her heart warm upon hearing this. She smiled and did not make a sound as she turned to look out of the car window.

…

At two o’clock in the afternoon, the autumn sun was warm and dazzling. In Shen Wenna’s apartment at University A, Xi Mushan was prepared. He had put the things they needed into the car, and Shen Wenna slowly went downstairs, carrying Little Apple in her arms.

“All ready?” Shen Wenna walked to the car and looked up to see Xi Mushan who was still busy at the trunk.

“Almost. Let’s fetch Xiao Rui along the way.” Xi Mushan quickly closed the trunk and returned to sit in the car. Shen Wenna got into the front passenger seat too.

The husband and wife got along harmoniously these days. Xi Mushan seemed to be compensating Shen Wenna with all the love that he had missed out on these years. He was very obedient and doted on her.

Shen Wenna did not know what kind of love could last long, but she knew that sometimes, love born out of guilt could sometimes be stronger than other kinds of love.

Once in the car, Xi Mushan naturally reached over to help her buckle up. He patted Little Apple’s head before starting the car.

When the car started, his soft voice was suddenly heard. “The maple forest in Fragrance Hill seems to be turning red. Let’s go visit it if we’re not busy this weekend. Xiao Rui also mentioned that he has homework on learning how to make specimens.”

“This weekend? The educational administration has already informed that almost half the semester is done with. I haven’t thought of my student’s graduation thesis topics,” Shen Wenna frowned and said.

“Isn’t your research topic on using the Linux system to model and analyze polymer activity? I think you can just come up with a topic from this aspect. How many are you guiding this time around?”

When it came to work, the husband and wife shared information. Sometimes, he would help Shen Wenna handle some things such as helping her mark assignments and so on.

“Lecturer Chu from my office isn’t feeling too well, so she might not be guiding anyone and will send a few over. Right now, I have 15 who have registered. I’m planning to wait for the day before October 1st for them to come over for a gathering, and then I’ll inform them about this properly. The last batch of students’ employment rate wasn’t too high, thus the research faculty was planning to quickly get the graduation thesis matter sorted out so that they would have more time to find an internship.”

“It’s quite hard to say with these young ones. Right now, universities are expanding their recruitment drive. The supply exceeds the demands with university students, a lot of undergraduate students would also have lots of demands, especially like a famous university such as University A, the students who graduate would usually ask for more, that’s not a good trend. They must know that life in university and in society are two completely different things.”

As Vice-Chancellor, Xi Mushan was quite worried about these problems. Now, the younger students lacked pragmatism. While they had high standards, they were not as competent. Because of that, the school had been promoting thought education and had even done a follow-up study. The results showed that within two years of graduation, many had changed jobs six to seven times. The reasons were poor work environment, low wages, or bosses who were hard to get along with.
