"Good morning Madam; Good Morning, Master Chu Yan." Almost everyone greeted them why already eating their breakfast.
"No." Four Eyes responded, shaking his head; Four Eyes wouldn’t want to be called this way by his friends.
Ling Li just smiled, looking at him. She wanted to say something but forgot when she saw the nannies carrying the twins coming in from sunbathing. Ling Li tried to take them, but Four Eyes stopped her.
"Eat first. The children will be fine. You can feed them after." Four Eyes stated, and Ling Li obediently agreed.
While they were having their meal, Ling Li addressed Fatty’s concerns with reassurance. She had noticed Fatty’s gloomy mood since they arrived last night.
"Quan Ye, there’s no need for you to worry about your business. As our partner, our central office receives real-time copies of each transaction. Once everything is settled, your business can resume as usual without any lost transactions," Ling Li informed Fatty.
"Really?" Fatty was dumbfounded since his building crumbled. He thought he had lost everything; this news gave Fatty instant hope.
"Yes, that’s the truth. And I have sent all of your staff for stress debriefing, and those who need further therapy can see the psychiatric doctor." Ling Li added.
"Thank you, Madam Li." Fatty expressed his gratitude.
"It is going to take time to reconstruct your building. I want to make a diversion for you. I suggest you transfer your main office to Europe since seventy percent of your market is there. But you need to learn to speak the language." Ling Li spoke out with determination.
Fatty was excited when he heard about moving the headquarters to Europe. However, his excitement immediately vanished when he heard the last part about his need to learn a new language. Find the newest release on novᴇlfire.net
Ling Li could almost read Fatty’s mind from his facial expression, "How will you transact the business without understanding the language? Will you entrust the billion-dollar transaction to a translator?" Ling Li is trying to describe the situation to Fatty.
"I’ll send a tutor in to teach all of you English, French, and German, for starters." Ling Li declared.
"What do you mean to all of us? Does it include me?" Chatty, who can’t control his mouth, asked while raising his hand like a kid.
"Yes, including you and this guy." Ling Li said while pointing to Four Eyes. Four Eyes was no longer a surprise. She had told him last night that he needed to train.
"But I’m not doing business like them!" Chatty whined. Pharsa hit him to stop his whining. If there is something that Chatty hated most, that is studying.
"But you will be racing worldwide, specifically in Germany and France," Mushu told him. "We often race there," Mushu added.
"By the way, Mushu, pick up Chu Yan’s family. Move them to Shi Shi before it’s too late. You know what to do to protect them. Please arrange everything." Ling Li commanded.
"Understood. I’m done eating; I shall take my leave." Mushu politely responded and left.
"After you eat, please call your parents and inform them that Mushu will pick them up." Ling Li reminded Four Eyes in a soft tone while holding his hand. Four Eyes nodded and left the table.
"Where is Shinsei?" Ling Li asked with curiosity. She almost forgot about him.
"He left at dawn." El Padre stated.
"Shinsei gave his blessing to the twins before he left. He didn’t want to disturb you, so he asked his assistant to wake me up instead because the nannies wouldn’t let him in the nursery. Ha ha ha ha." El Padre laughingly said to Ling Li, what happened to Shensei before he left.
"Who would have thought those nannies were so fierce that they would drive away a monk! Ha ha ha ha!" El Capitan, who was always silent, was laughing his heart out.
"I’m sorry, Master. We didn’t know he was an important person." One of the nannies apologized and bowed again.
"No, don’t say that. You did the right thing. You don’t know Shinsei. So it was just right that you drove him away. Our precious princesses are much more important, and their safety is our top priority, so don’t say sorry." El Padre explained while he stood up and played with the twins.
Ling Li was amused listening to them when she found out about Shinsei’s predicament this morning. It almost made Ling Li laugh out loud after she imagined Shinsei’s face being driven away by the nannies.
At the same time, Four Eyes is on the phone with his mother.
"Mother, listen to me." Four Eyes spoke.
"Chu Yan, I’m sorry about your children again. Mom feels very sad about the news." Four Eyes’ mother immediately said to him.
"Mom. Can you listen to me?"
"Mom, I called you before to tell you about my children. But I didn’t assume you would broadcast it to all your friends. You didn’t ask me about Ling Li. She is not a simple person.
Mom, someone will pick you up. His name is Mushu. Don’t pack anything. Just bring the most critical documents that you might need. Don’t bring any luggage. They will bring you to a safe place. This place is where Ling and I used to live. Some servants will attend to you there. I will take care of all your living expenses from now on.
Most Importantly, keep everyone from knowing where you are. And warn your good daughter about it and tell her not to cause any trouble." Four Eyes said very firmly.
"Chu Yan, how can you say that to your sister?!" Her mother reprimanded him.
"Mom, you and I know her better than anyone else when it comes to making trouble. Remember not to tell anyone where you are. Mushu will be there anytime now to pick you up. Be ready. I’ll hang up."
After Four Eyes hung up the phone, his mother ran to her husband.
"Honey, honey..." Mrs. Xu anxiously called.
The Xu husband and wife are both at an advanced age, so they move slowly. Her husband came out of the room.
"What’s the hurry? What happened to you?" Mr. Xu asked. He could feel the panic in his wife’s voice.
