166 Scolding
“Didn’t I tell you last time?” Papa Le observed his brother’s rascal-like behavior and felt a headache. “Baby won’t take other people’s things, so she didn’t get the game from the start. As for the owner of the game, he sold it. However, it’s their business to who they sell it. How would we know?”
Second Uncle Le didn’t believe it.
“Isn’t the kid who developed the game Baby’s boyfriend? How can you not tell Baby about such a big thing?”
Papa Le replied, “He’s just a boyfriend. He’s not even married yet. He’s just a kid playing around. Why would he tell you everything? In short, you should focus on running your game company and stop thinking about taking advantage of the situation.”
Second Uncle Le was still unwilling to give up. He asked his brother,
“Then give me the boy’s contact information. I’ll go and meet him personally.”
Dong! The teacup in Papa Le’s hand smashed onto the table, shocking Second Uncle Le and Secretary Xie, who was standing by the side.
The next second, he cursed,
“Le Tang, how old are you this year? Why do you still want to compete with a child?”
Second Uncle Le was startled by his serious look and quickly sat up straight.
“Big brother, I’m not trying to make things difficult for that kid. I just don’t want to let outsiders take advantage of me. If he really had that game, wouldn’t it be a great alliance if I started a game company now? Don’t worry, I won’t take his things for free. I’ll pay him. If he needs it, I can let him join as an employee in my company. I can also help my niece look after him, right?”
Papa Le snorted.
“That’s enough. Put away your little schemes. Don’t think I don’t know what you’re up to. Anyway, I don’t have a game, and we don’t know who he sold the game to. I don’t want to care about you, but you can’t keep thinking about disturbing your niece.”
He pointed at Second Uncle Le and said,
“Also, keep your two daughters in check. Tell them to put more effort into their studies and not think about those useless schemes all day. Your daughter was calculative and incited disharmony behind their backs, causing the sisters to fight and the family to fall out. What would it look like if this were to spread? Even if they don’t feel embarrassed, we, as elders, feel embarrassed. If they don’t want to continue living like this, I can immediately contact a school overseas and send them there. If they want to further their studies, or if they want to be gold-plated, it’s up to them.”
After talking about the real and fake daughters who liked to cause trouble, Papa Le returned to the topic and looked back at Second Uncle Le.
“You’re already an adult. If you want to start a business, father and I will support you, but you have to put your mind on the right path and do it step by step. It’s not that easy to do business. You’re always thinking of free lunch and fantasizing that you can make a fortune in the office.”
“If a business is so easy to do, why don’t we all run to do business together? Just look at how many companies go bankrupt every year. How many people fail every year? You don’t have to think about snatching other people’s projects, but first, accumulate experience so that you can stand on your own feet.”
Second Uncle Le was a man in his early forties. He had rushed to the company in high spirits to ask his big brother for a game project. In the end, he was pointed at the head and scolded like a grandson.
Second Uncle Le was unwilling to accept this, but Papa Le’s power was very strong and was even more terrifying than his father’s. So he was like a quail, shrinking his body and lowering his head as he was scolded, not daring to resist. In the end, Papa Le scolded him and left.
Papa Le seemed to be satisfied with his scolding, but he was still very angry after he drove him away. He sat on the chair dejectedly and started to circulate his thoughts.
Secretary Xie saw that his face was a little pale, so she carefully made him a cup of tea that could lower his internal heat and nourish his liver.
As soon as she put down the tea, she heard Papa Le’s instructions.
“In two days, find time to meet with manager Chu Lin of the Gilt Metal Company and bring that gangster along.”
Manager Chu was a good friend of Papa Le’s. He specialized in online marketing, and it was said that he was leaving Gilt Group. Papa Le wanted to introduce him to Second Uncle Le, which meant that even though he was angry, he still didn’t give up on Second Uncle Le. That was why he wanted to introduce him to his connections, hoping that he could really start the game company.
Secretary Xie agreed. Then, she heard Papa Le sigh,
“I hope he can do a good job this time and not only complain all day.”
