Zuzi didn’t have much concept of the "pilot" profession, but vaguely rembered both Chen Long and Wei Yang had ntioned that Bao Gucheng’s piloting skills were absolutely top-notch in the Empire.
"Maybe. He might be an excellent pilot." Zuzi casually followed up on what Xi Rubao said.
Xi Rubao was excited: "Sister, so on the day of the exams, our pilot brother-in-law will definitely cancel all flight missions to co see you, right?"
Zuzi shook her head: "No, I didn’t ask him to co."
Xi Rubao was slightly disappointed: "Ah..."
Zuzi ruffled her hair: "You seem full of energy, just in ti, here are two sets of test papers..."
Xi Rubao imdiately lay back on the bed and gave a big yawn: "Sister, I’m suddenly so tired, yawn! And brother-in-law just said our current task is to sleep because we girls still need to develop."
Zuzi smiled slightly: "The test papers contain the type of questions I expect to appear in the exams..."
Xi Rubao imdiately jumped up: "Sister, I can do ten sets of papers! I love studying, I love doing questions, quick, quick, help up, I want to do questions!"

Early morning.
Four Seas Hotel Club.
Nangong Mo seed like soone who didn’t need sleep, smoking cigars on a velvet sofa, reviewing various accounts and requests submitted by subordinates in sequence.
The subordinates who ca to report had already changed wave after wave.
The secretary attending him was struggling to keep her eyes open, but the man remained full of energy and clear-minded:
"Check these accounts and fix them before bringing them back. The business passed through the Viking Islands duty-free zone and dared to cut the customs rate by five percent, thinking I wouldn’t notice trying to pluck feathers from a tiger’s head?"
"And this account, I told you all to buy wild dicinal herbs over three hundred years old and Ancient Jade of over a thousand years from the black market, but what happened? Did you buy them and waste them?"
"I said the biggest business right now is to get herbs and jade at all costs and by all ans!"
"You can’t make money when told to, can’t spend it either, raising you is no better than raising a dog?"
Everyone trembled with fear, dreading the Fourth Lord’s wrath and being thrown into the sea to feed sharks, and quickly explained with doom on their faces: "Fourth Lord, we’ve been buying at high prices, but wild dicinal herbs over three hundred years old and Ancient Jade over a thousand years old are truly rare on the market, even with our investnt we couldn’t get any..."
Nangong Mo dismissed them: "Rare? That junk over just three hundred or a thousand years, what’s so rare about it."
That disdainful expression made the subordinates shake with fear again: "But Fourth Lord, we’ve already released a bounty on the black market, and registered at major auction houses in the imperial capital, and once the items we want appear, we will be the first to be notified."
Another subordinate had a mont of inspiration and reported: "Fourth Lord, I heard the Xi family has four pieces of heirloom Ancient Jade, one piece for each of the three sons, and one with the old master. Given they have been passed down through generations, they must be over a thousand years old? Should I go discuss acquisition?"
Nangong Mo’s foul mood throughout the night finally cleared for a mont: "Go ahead."
Since ntioning the Xi family, the secretary hesitated: "Fourth Lord, one more thing, Miss ng was crippled from a fall, even though there is no evidence of assault at the scene, she insists that it was Xi Zuzi who plotted to harm her and wants us to verify with Zhang Shensuan. But when we sent people to interrogate Zhang Shensuan, he was severely injured, convulsing, with a crooked nose and mouth, unable to speak properly. So whether Xi Zuzi was involved in harming Miss ng has turned into a cold case... now if we’re to talk business with the Xi family, how do you think we should handle this matter more safely?"
Nangong Mo cast a cold glance at the secretary: "Still need to ask about such things? Since they have offended soone from the Nangong family, what evidence is needed? Just give them an unforgettable lesson."
"Xi Zuzi, she, she’s still a student, and she’s about to take the exams."
"Then make sure she can’t take the exams."
