Chen Xiangxiang was destined to have a bland lunch. XI jingxing was not in the mood, and Xi Yaohua remained vigilant and did not say much. Chen Xiangxiang still had to return to school in the afternoon, so she quickly bade farewell and left. Before she left, she thought of Zhang An’s words, but after observing XI Jingxing’s expression, she decided not to say anything. Anyway, there were still a few days before the Xi family’s payday, so there was no need to say anything today. Xi Jingxing was in a bad mood right now, so she did not need to bring up such an unlikable topic for a chauffeur. However, when she got into the car and was questioned by Zhang An, she still said, “I mentioned it to Uncle XI. He knows what he’s doing, so don’t worry.” Zhang an was relieved. “Miss Xiangxiang, you’re such a good person! You’re willing to think about everything for us…” Did Yan XI, that sickly person, ever ask when the servants’salaries would be paid? Did she ever sympathize with how hard it was for ordinary people to work and earn a living? She even had the nerve to give him orders. She was so high and mighty, yet he refused to serve her! Now that she couldn’t even return to the Xi family, she was afraid that her title as the eldest daughter of the Xi family would be lost. It was a big joke when she thought about it. — After Chen Xiangxiang left, Xi Jingxing’s assistant, Wu Liang, came in with a document. “Sir, regarding the repayment of your credit card, the balance in your salary card is insufficient, so you can’t pay it back yet.” “How can that be?”XI jingxing frowned. “Doesn’t the company always have dividends? Why is the balance insufficient?” Wu Liang said, “The company’s performance hasn’t been good for the past two years. It’s still in a state of loss so far this year, so it won’t pay dividends to the shareholders for the time being. And your salary is only one yuan…” Xi jingxing rubbed his temples. He hadn’t expected that the company wouldn’t be able to pay out. Everything had been fine before. He took out a card from his bag. “There’s a fund here. You can withdraw it and return the credit card.” Wu Liang took the card and processed it. XI jingxing sat quietly for a while and had no choice but to get back to work. He had read the few transformation plans and reports that Yang Mei had customized. However, he was a little hesitant and felt that they were too rash. However, if the company didn’t transform, in the long run, it would probably continue to lose money. He had never been very concerned about money, and he had never needed to worry about money. Every month, when the company’s dividends came in, he would let Wu Liang handle those trivial matters and then report to him every month. Those expenses were quite a lot. If the company didn’t pay dividends, he might not even be able to maintain these normal expenses. Xi Jingxing now had to face this problem head-on. In the end, he still signed the plans that Yang Mei had made. — Yan Xi hung up the phone, and Xi Yan stood up on the other end. “Yan Yan, dad didn’t say anything about you, right?”He looked nervous. “If he said anything, you don’t have to care. Just do what you want. I’ll always support you!” Yan Xi looked at him in surprise. “What do you think he would say?” “What else could he say? Of course, it’s the generosity of others. He wants you to withdraw the lawsuit! On what basis? She obviously did it on purpose!”Xi Yan clenched her fists in anger. Previously, the other party had used words to say that he had lost the necklace, so she did not dare to say anything. However, her attitude was obviously very firm. She just wanted her to return it. Why did Wang Zinan think that he was not going to pursue the matter? It was a necklace that his mother had bought. It meant a lot! Yan XI said, “You don’t have to worry about that. I’ve already gotten the necklace back.” Xi Yan was stunned. “That’s good.” He was really afraid that he would not be able to explain it to his dead mother if the necklace was lost. Yan XI said, “That’s why I’m going to withdraw the lawsuit.” Xi Yan frowned. “AH? Why do you want to withdraw the lawsuit?”Then, he suddenly quieted down. Last night, Yan Yunzhi had talked to him. No matter what Yan Xi did, Yan Yunzhi would not interfere. However, he was more or less worried that his nephew’s brain was acting up, so he could not figure it out. This was the first time he had fallen in love with a girl. It seemed that no matter what the other party did, he could forgive her. Xi Yan was too soft-hearted, so he could not turn against her. Yan Xi immediately cut the Gordian knot and suppressed Wang Zinan so much that she could not raise her head. Her style was too tough and aggressive, and it was easy for people to criticize her. Others would not say anything about Xi Yan. They would only think that Yan Xi was too overbearing and unreasonable. In the entire storm, Xi Yan was the least hurt and was well protected. Everyone would at most say that he was too soft-hearted, but they could not criticize him too much. Everyone thought that Yan Xi had a heart of stone, but it was not the case. At least, from what Yan Yunzhi knew, Yan Yan was a very kind and tolerant child. She had dealt with these vampires lying on top of Xi Yan forcefully, but she would still leave a line for Xi Yan. She would not really kill them all. Xi Yan looked at her sister in front of her. Her eyes were calm, as if she could handle any situation calmly and easily. Only Xi Yan knew that during the days when her mother was seriously ill, her younger sister, who supported the entire family by herself, would hide in the bathroom and cry secretly. She was so careful when she cried, not daring to let anyone find out. When she dried her tears, she would become the calm and collected miss again, arranging everything in an orderly manner. Everyone, including herself and XI jingxing, had gotten used to relying on her. However, they never thought that such a young girl would also feel uneasy and need to be hugged. “You two siblings, one is too early to be wise and the other is too slow. One grows too fast and the other is too slow.”In the end, Yan Yunzhi said, “Xi Yan, it’s time for you to grow up.” That’s right, it’s time for you to grow up and take on the responsibility of being an elder brother. “Yan Yan, I will protect you well.”Xi Yan clenched her fists, her eyes filled with determination. “Alright.”Yan XI smiled and said, “I believe that elder brother can do it, but before that, I have to remind you that some people might not let this go.” Xi Yan said, “If I fall for it again, you don’t have to say it. I’ll break my own legs first!” “Eldest young master, we’ve all heard it. We’re all witnesses!”Jin Zhao pulled Ying Shiyu to the corner of the wall to listen for a long time. With the mentality of watching a show, he did not mind the bigger picture. He quickly said loudly, “If you continue to pay attention to that little white lotus, we’ll help pull her leg and let you break it yourself!” Xi Yan was stunned for a moment. His face slowly turned red. He was too embarrassed. “Jin Zhao, the people from class one are so annoying!” Ying Shiyu said, “Just scold Jin Zhao. Don’t bring class one on stage.” Xi Yan said, “Why doesn’t Xie changze care about you guys!” Jin Zhao said, “Bringing our class monitor is even worse. You’ll be beaten up by a group of people!” Yan Xi saw the people standing behind the greenery and walked over. “Xie Changze, why are you standing here?” Xie changze smiled and said, “I’m afraid that some people will run away when they see me.” Speaking of this, Yan Xi was also very puzzled. “What on Earth did you do? Why is my brother so afraid of You?”
