Chapter 155 - Returning to the small mountain village
In the end, under Sheng Jue's unwillingness to leave, he still took over the company. Xiang Chen Shu recovered and specially arranged a small gathering for his.
Xiang Chen Shu was unhappy, this was a reunion specially arranged for him, why are you unwilling? I should be the one who was unwilling, since Xiang Chen Xi had left the banquet multiple times, and in the end, Xiang Chen Shu lost interest and wanted to return home early. As for Sheng Jue, no matter what Xiang Chen Shu said, he would definitely become a loyal dog.
As the three of them walked home while breezing and bathing in the sunlight, Xiang Chen Shu began to criticize Xiang Chen Xi and he would occasionally chime in from the side.
"Ding ling ling ~ Ding ling ling ~ Ding ling ling"
Xiang Chen Xi's phone rang. In that moment, Xiang Chen Xi felt that the person who called was his savior. He casually took out his phone and opened it, only to see that it was his assistant.
"Hello? What's the matter? "
Xiang Chen Xi said while pretending to be calm. Actually, his heart was already blooming with happiness, as he thought to himself that he must give his assistant a raise in wages when he gets back.
"Boss, the plants New Moon Village tried to plant have succeeded. Are we going to increase our efforts to spread them?" How much more area would need to be planted? "Boss, please make your decision."
"What did you say?" You need me to go back? You've booked my ticket? Tomorrow's plane? It's not nimble at all to do small things, what's the use of you, eating for free? "
Being scolded by his own boss, the 20 feet monk did not understand what was wrong with him. Besides, he was only reporting the situation of the company to Xiang Chen Xi, what did his boss mean?
However, to be able to become Xiang Chen Xi's assistant, his mind was naturally different. He thought for a moment, then understood, the matter regarding Xiang Chen Xi's search was no longer a secret in the company, at the very beginning, there were some greedy people who wanted to fly up the branch and turn into phoenixes, but after being ruthlessly punished by Xiang Chen Xi, no one dared to do it anymore.
Because they had this path before, some of the entrepreneurs who were not as famous as the Xiang Family and the Taur company, in order to raise their own business reputation, went to find someone who was similar to Tao Chu Liang to impersonate her. In the end, Xiang Chen Xi managed to destroy that company after just a few days, causing that entrepreneur to lose his chance of starting anew.
The assistant could still remember that the ruined entrepreneur had come to Xiang Chen Xi for help. Xiang Chen Xi only said one sentence in a domineering manner, "In his heart, there is no one who can replace Tao Chu Liang."
If someone with ill intentions were to casually speak of his beloved wife, he would definitely punish them harshly. As for this, it was to first set an example for others.
Even though Xiang Chen Xi was bitterly searching for Tao Chu Liang, he had been tightly controlled by his own sister from the beginning to the end.
"You are mute? Can't you speak? "If you can't do good, then come find me. Do you believe that I won't fire you?"
Seeing his own assistant not saying anything for a long time, Xiang Chen Xi became anxious, his words pulled his assistant's attention back, bringing his flying thoughts back together.
"Okay, this subordinate will definitely do it. I will send you a plane ticket tomorrow morning."
After Xiang Chen Xi received his satisfactory reply, he hung up and turned to see his elder sister staring at him slanted, as though she wanted to see through him.
Xiang Chen Xi laughed awkwardly, then said to Xiang Chen Shu with a stern expression, "Sis, I'm going to go abroad, as you heard just now, my assistant said that there was a problem with the project that New Moon Village developed, so …"
"With Sheng Jue accompanying you at home, I feel at ease."
Xiang Chen Xi paused for a moment, and then continued, Xiang Chen Shu did not believe him and refuted him, "Since there is a problem with the New Moon Village project, then you can just send the people over to settle it, why do you need to personally go over there? If you don't work for the company, what's the use of keeping such people? "
The angry Xiang Chen Shu had a venomous mouth, so the employees that were thousands of miles away suffered from Xiang Chen Shu's displeasure because their boss wanted to slip away, and were even in danger of being expelled.
Xiang Chen Xi would not allow his own employees to be fired for no reason. Hence, after a series of persuasion, all the employees were kept.
After some time, Xiang Chen Xi was finally able to slip away after experiencing Xiang Chen Shu and Sheng Jue's interference. Once he returned home, Xiang Chen Xi used tomorrow's plane ticket as an excuse to leave, because he was truly afraid that if Xiang Chen Shu continued to ask, he would expose himself.
When he went back, the assistant had already sent him the plane ticket. As Xiang Chen Xi held the plane ticket, his heart felt like he had eaten a tranquility pill.
The next morning, Xiang Chen Xi woke up early. The plane took off at 12: 30 in the afternoon. He left early, leaving behind a letter on the table.
He dragged his luggage all the way to the airport. Even though he hadn't eaten breakfast, he still couldn't hide the excitement in his heart.
The afternoon sun was burning hot, and Xiang Chen Xi also felt stuffy sitting in the taxi. He turned the air conditioner to its maximum and only felt a bit of cool air. Although it was almost the end of summer, it was right about time for the sun to shine.
As Xiang Chen Xi sat on the carriage, having nothing else to do, he began to let his imagination run wild.
I wonder how is Lu Yu doing? Whether Hu Zi's results were outstanding or not, the village chief had not changed.
Xiang Chen Xi thought, all he was thinking about were the people and matters of the New Moon Village, that's right, the New Moon Village, and he had even named the name himself.
The car soon arrived at the airport. He did not eat breakfast, but he did not feel hungry.
The plane flew for a few hours before arriving at the town. The sky gradually darkened, Xiang Chen Xi did not hesitate much and immediately went to the hotel he booked.
On the plane, Xiang Chen Xi had eaten something, but he was not hungry yet. He was thinking, should he go look for Lu Yu?
When he was at home, every time he finished helping Sheng Jue with his company's matters, the thing Xiang Chen Xi loved to do the most was to stand on the top floor and watch the scenery. However, his mind was constantly thinking back to the days he had spent with Lu Yu and the things he had experienced.
He was afraid that Xiang Chen Shu would secretly send people to spy on him, and he knew the reason why her sister was doing so. However, he did not like the feeling of being watched anytime, anywhere.
In the hotel, Xiang Chen Xi washed up and went to sleep early. He laid on the bed, but his mind was working quickly to think of a solution to the problem.
After his efforts, he had basically confirmed that Xiang Chen Shu did not send anyone to spy on him. His heart was a little relaxed, thinking, would Lu Yu be very happy to see him? Will they welcome him back? Would she be angry at him for leaving without saying a word? Would she not even see his face in the end?
When he remembered that Lu Yu had a face full of unhappiness, Xiang Chen Xi felt really bad and started to regret. He should have stayed back then, or maybe it was better to see her for the last time.
Xiang Chen Xi didn't feel the slightest bit that he was being affected by Lu Yu's emotions. He was tossing and turning in his bed, and couldn't fall asleep no matter what, especially when he thought about meeting Lu Yu tomorrow. He was even more excited about it, so on the second day, Xiang Chen Xi would go with a pair of panda eyes.
Xiang Chen Xi drove to New Moon Village with a nervous heart because it was still early in the morning. The children would go to school, help their family, and the adults would all be working in the fields.
Xiang Chen Xi walked along the road in the village with familiarity, he casually picked up the delicious fruits on the side of the road, to solve the problem of him being thirsty.
In the village, there were some kids who were either herding cattle or cutting pig grass that discovered him and were very happy. They ran over to him and asked him why he hadn't come to the village for a month, and why he hadn't come to take a look for so long.
Xiang Chen Xi, on the other hand, was calmly listening to them talk about the length of their master's life, the length of their master's life, the length of their wife's life, and the number of eggs laid by their mother.
Xiang Chen Xi cleverly played around with the kids, and from their mouths, he found out what he wanted, for example, how was your Teacher Lu recently, and how she was doing.
The honest kids all grew up in the village, not understanding Xiang Chen Xi's flowery heart, so they would only answer whatever Xiang Chen Xi asked.
After getting the answer he wanted from the children's mouths, Xiang Chen Xi realized that his desire to see Lu Yu had become even more urgent.
The children all had their own jobs to do, so they could not nag Xiang Chen Xi anymore. Thus, everyone scattered and ran back to their own homes to inform their elders or their parents, moving in circles in between everyone, passing down the news of Xiang Chen Xi's return.
So, in a short while, the news of Xiang Chen Xi's return spread across the entire New Moon Village. All the men and women in the village, old and young, all knew that Xiang Chen Xi had returned.
Xiang Chen Xi was handsome, and he was rich, this was a fact known to everyone in the village. Therefore, Xiang Chen Xi would always meet a few shy girls or elderly women along the way.
