“Second Uncle.” Xie Wenkai turned his head to look at Cao Shaowei, who was sitting on the chair like Maitreya Buddha. Xie Wenkai asked, “Aren’t you leaving yet?”
Cao Shaowei always gave off a kind vibe to people, he looked very kind. In fact, Cao Shaowei was not that old. When he was young, he was very hot-tempered. However, because he had been ill for many years, his condition gradually became worse and so his temper also became much calmer. He looked at Xie Wenkai and sighed, “You have really grown up.”
“Second Uncle, do you think what I did today was wrong?” Xie Wenkai asked.
“You were right… but you were also wrong,” Cao Shaowei nodded and then shook his head. He said, “Your mother’s desire to control is too strong. She is a good woman. Your father was lucky to marry her. However, it has been so many years. You have grown up.” Cao Shaowei didn’t continue. In fact, Cao Shaowei had a problem with Madam Xie for so many years. This had something to do with Madam Xie pushing out a few of the company’s elders back then. It also had something to do with Madam Xie’s controlling style all along, although Cao Shaowei understood that Madam Xie didn’t do anything wrong. However, when it came to brotherhood, there was no right or wrong. Of course, although Cao Shaoweihad buried this issue in his heart, Cao Shaowei had never objected to Madam Xie. This was because he had always been on the same side as Xie Guofu. He supported Xie Guofu, so he naturally had to support Madam Xie.
“Actually, today you…” Cao Shaowei muttered. He looked at Xie Wenkai and smiled, “You didn’t do anything wrong. It’s not certain which one of us will die first, your father or me. The two of us don’t have many years left in us. You will definitely be the head of the Six Blessings Corporation in the future. You should have your own opinions. You should be independent and not blindly listen to others. I am afraid that when you’re in your thirties or forties, your mother will still continue to manage you very tightly. If that happens, how can you manage the company well?”
There were some things that Cao Shaowei was well aware of. He was a bystander and understood everything. However, it was hard for him to tell Xie Guofu. Cao Shaowei looked at Xie Wenkai and said, “However, you chose the wrong time this time. It was too sudden. Your mother was completely unprepared, and you were also completely unprepared. You just went against your mother like this. If you fail this time, it will be even more difficult in the future.”
Xie Wenkai was silent. Jiang Tong had told him that some things did not need to be revealed to Cao Shaowei in advance. If they were revealed in advance, there might be problems. Cao Shaowei might even inform Xie Guofu in advance. Even though he did not have any malicious intent in doing so, but it was such an important situation, so Cao Shaowei would definitely tell Xie Guofu if he knew about it.
“Alright, what’s done is already done, so don’t feel too much pressure. You were born with a silver spoon in your mouth. Everything went too smoothly. It’s good to suffer a little setback. It’s not a bad thing for you,” Cao Shaowei said. He comforted Xie Wenkai, who seemed to be thinking about something, then put his hands on the chair and tried to stand up. He was too fat and could not stand up without using his hands to support himself. Xie Wenkai hurriedly got up and went over to help Cao Shaowei up.
At the same time, at the end of the corridor on the other side of the conference room, Madam Xie was making a phone call by the window. “Yes, no need. You don’t have to tell him. I’ll take care of it. You can focus on the meeting in the capital. Xie Wenkai did this irrational thing because of Zhou Jingyun’s instigation. When I suppress him in the board meeting, he’ll be obedient. Okay Hubby, take care of your health. Did you take your medicine today?” Madam Xie’s tone was gentle while she was on the phone with Xie Guofu. After she finished the phone call, her face darkened again as she looked out of the building’s window with an icy expression. She had already told her husband, Xie Guofu, about what had happened today. Xie Guofu had originally wanted to call Xie Wenkai directly, but Madam Xie did not let him. When her husband was not around, something like this happened because she had not taught her son well. She wanted to wake Xie Wenkai up by herself!
In Jingyun Fashion Company, the CEO’s office.
Jiang Tong was still chatting with ‘Mu Yu’. She typed, “I have a question. Why did you look for me? It’s very strange. Why don’t you look for a teacher in the capital? Wouldn’t that be more convenient? I just entered the exchange group today, and you already came looking for me…”
Mu Yu replied, “It’s like this, Teacher Red Star. I looked for a teacher, but I couldn’t find any. Huanhuan has already angered quite a few teachers and chased them away. The teachers I found for Huanhuan are all famous teachers in the capital. They are all in the same circle and are all from the capital’s Fine Arts Association. Word spreads quickly. Even if I want to find a good teacher for Huanhuan, no one is willing to come.”
