When Bai Zheng heard his daughter’s thoughts, she was a little tempted. However, Mi Li was also a woman. How could she not see through Bai Ting’s thoughts?
Bai Zheng pondered for a moment and said, “In Sea City, the Si family is indeed our best choice at the moment. They have the strength. Unless it’s absolutely necessary, I don’t want to give up on Si Cheng either. However, there’s more than one choice in the Si family. Isn’t his younger brother, Si Qin, also single?”
Bai Ting continued to analyze calmly, “But Si Qin’s mother, Qin Zhen’s family, has long gone bankrupt and no longer exists, let alone provide any help. Although Zheng Wen’s maiden family is not as good as before, it’s at least still in operation after all. There are still 3,000 nails in a rotten ship. It’s much better than the Qin family no matter what. It won’t be that easy for Si Qin to replace Si Cheng.”
Bai Zheng listened to Bai Ting’s analysis and looked at her. “1’11 make an appointment with your Uncle Xu, but you have to hurry up. Why do I feel that Si Cheng isn’t too concerned about the marriage? When was the last time you two met?”
Bai Ting looked up and smiled faintly. “We just met last weekend. Dad, don’t worry. I won’t let your efforts go to waste.”
Bai Zheng still believed in his daughter’s ability. He nodded. “Alright, I’ll go out first.”
After her husband left, Mi Li immediately sat beside Bai Ting and frowned. “Do you really want Si Cheng? You’ve known each other together for so long. He’s always just polite to you. I’m just afraid that you won’t be able to warm his heart. Moreover, he’s a little indecisive. He’s been divorcing for so long. Whoever is more ruthless in the business world will be able to have a more stable position.”
“Although Zheng Wen’s family helped Si Cheng secure his position, Si Qin is also a capable person. All in all, it can be said that the two of them are evenly matched. Until the last moment, it’s still not certain who will win. Don’t suffer a double loss.”
Bai Ting looked at Mi Li and smiled. “Mom, don’t worry. I’m determined about Si Cheng.”
Bai Ting had never been so interested in a man before. Si Cheng was much more concerned about her now than before. Of course, he was still far from her expectations, but it didn’t matter. As long as she had him, it was only a matter of time before she got his heart.
Mi Li knew that Bai Ting had set her mind on an idea and it was very difficult to change her mind. However, when she thought about how Bai Ting had always made her feel at ease since she was young, she didn’t say anything else and only urged, “Then ask Si Cheng out in the next two days to see what he’s thinking!”
“Zheng Wen is very enthusiastic about us, but what’s the use of her enthusiasm? You’re living with Si Cheng, not her.”
Bai Ting also felt that it was time for Si Cheng to make a choice. She stared at the cup on the coffee table and slowly said, “Okay.”
The two of them had an appointment for dinner three days later. When Si Cheng agreed to go, he knew that he didn’t have much time left.
Si Cheng closed his eyes and leaned against the cushion of the office chair. Wei Feng looked at Si Cheng’s frown and felt bad.
Ten years ago, the Si Corporation started a charity event. Every year, they would sponsor students from poor families to go to school. Wei Feng was one of them. The country only had nine years of compulsory education. If not for the Si Corporation’s sponsorship, he would have to work at the factory after junior high school. It could be said that the Si Corporation had changed his life.
The person who pushed this initiative was Si Cheng. After Wei Feng entered the corporation last year, he had been in the CEO’s office and had been working under Ning Gang. He entered the Si Corporation with the intention of repaying his kindness and hoped to be able to help Si Cheng. This was also the reason why Ning Gang prioritized him after he found out. In view of his ability, he made the decision to promote Wei Feng to take over his position.
As Si Cheng and Si Qin had been in a deadlock over power, Si Cheng had spent all his free time in the company this month. Ever since Wei Feng was promoted to personal assistant, he could be said to be the person who understood his situation the best.
Wei Feng thought for a moment and reminded him, “President Si, I’ve received news that Si Qin’s project will be signed in the next few days. Once it succeeds, the board of directors will probably directly suggest…”
Wei Feng didn’t say it directly, but both of them knew that the board of directors was waiting to see who could bring more profits to the Si Corporation. Once Si Qin signed the contract, if they couldn’t provide strong support, they would be impeached by everyone..
