Sisi’s wound on her hand healed quickly, and within a few days, she was able to move freely, except for the terrifying scar left on her arm, which made Tian Xinhua feel very guilty and self-blaming. Since then, he never left her side, almost following her everywhere except into the ladies’ room.
Moreover, even when he had matters to attend to, he would take Sisi and Du Du along. Only then did Sisi find out what Mr. Yun had sent Tian Xinhua to Hong Kong for.
It turned out that he was sent here to discuss business, or not exactly business per se, but to use the name of Ai Hua pany to visit and learn from various major panies, absorbing Hong Kong’s excellent management experience, which could then be used as references for economic reforms in the Mainland.
The main aim was for Mr. Yun to hope that Tian Xinhua could turn F city into a strong economic city like Hong Kong. Previously, Huangyuan County was greatly limited in its economic development due to its geographical location and other special reasons, which also restricted Tian Xinhua’s achievements.
However, F city was different. It had excellent natural geographical conditions and was an important port city, and its proximity to Hong Kong gave it inherent advantages. Starting from a high starting point, as long as Tian Xinhua managed it attentively and turned F city into a mini Hong Kong, his career path would bee smoother and smoother.
Of course, the people of F city would also benefit and lead a prosperous life.
Although Tian Xinhua was in politics, he was no less impressive dressed as a businessman, leaving no flaws visible. Even Boss Qiao would have been deceived by Tian Xinhua’s performance if he hadn’t been informed beforehand by Mu Xiulan that Tian Xinhua was a government official.
That day, Sisi and Mo Liu had agreed to have dinner together. Mo Liu was now a professor at G University and also a very famous young painter, who had held several successful exhibitions and was well-known in Hong Kong and Southeast Asia.
In contrast, Sisi had hardly touched a paintbrush since graduation, and if not for having to use one for teaching daily, she doubted she could still paint!
She felt so embarrassed!
Mo Liu was still as beautiful as ever, but she had bee much more cheerful and was no longer the shy, rabbit-like Ah Liu of the past.
Sisi found it a pity, saying that she still preferred the easy-to-blush Ah Liu from before.
Especially when Shangguan bullied Ah Liu, it was so lovely to watch!
Acpanying Mo Liu were Mo Hui and He Chunfeng. According to Mo Liu, He Chunfeng and Mo Hui were originally filming a movie, but Brother Li had taken half a month’s leave, and another lead actor had been injured during filming and had not recovered. Consequently, He Chunfeng simply gave the crew a break, leaving him idle and tagging along with friends for meals and drinks.
And today, he was leeching off Mo Liu!
Sisi knew why Brother Li had taken half a month off, as the Yaoxing Gang was about to make a big move soon. Being an important figure in the gang, Brother Li naturally had to participate.
The big move, of course, was to counterattack the New Dragon Association!
Mo Hui was still as beautiful as ever, though she looked somewhat haggard, for reasons unknown.
He Chunfeng’s mood didn’t seem too great either, but he hid it very well. If not for Sisi’s sensitive perception, she wouldn’t have noticed at all.
What was going on?
It felt like this trip to Hong Kong brought with it individual worries for her friends, and they no longer seemed as cheerful as before!
Could it really be due to the overwhelming pressure of city life?
Although everyone had their concerns, with Du Du’s cheerfulness, the atmosphere during their meal was still very joyful, occasionally filled with hearty laughter.
The one who laughed the most exaggeratedly was He Chunfeng, who even laughed until tears came out.
"Sisi, your son is so cute. Why not let him cameo in my new film? I guarantee he’ll be a hit," He Chunfeng’s old habit kicked in.
Sisi didn’t respond to him but instead turned to Mo Liu and asked, "Does Brother Chunfeng still constantly pester you to star in movies all day?"
Mo Liu held back his laughter and said, "Of course, Brother Chunfeng didn’t just tell me, he even went around telling my great uncle and several of my cousins. My granduncle is so annoyed, he’s already listed Brother Chunfeng as one of the Mo Family’s blocked contacts."
Sisi couldn’t help giggling, "Brother Chunfeng, you really can’t teach an old dog new tricks!"
He Chunfeng coquettishly glanced at her, snatched a rib from Du Du’s hand, and flaunted it in front of Sisi.
See, you talk about me, I’ll pick on your son!
Everyone looked disdainfully at this disrespectful fellow, collectively flipping him the middle finger.
Du Du was stunned for three seconds before he finally reacted.
How dare you steal the young master’s food?
You’re asking for it!
How could Du Du, who had been taught by Mr. Yun and Luo Datou to be selfish, tolerate someone snatching food from his mouth?
And it was his favorite ribs!
Everyone just saw the little guy suddenly leap up, jumping a meter high, snatched the rib that He Chunfeng was about to eat, and even bit He Chunfeng’s finger in the process, causing He Chunfeng to howl in pain, though no one sympathized with him.
Who told you to steal the kid’s food!
Serves you right!
Du Du proudly gnawed on the rib and even said in a babyish voice, "Uncle He, you need to exercise!"
Hahaha!
Everyone burst into laughter again, teasing He Chunfeng with Du Du’s words. He Chunfeng blushed with humiliation and glared furiously at Sisi. Sisi felt no pressure and casually continued eating, giving her son a thumbs up.
Amidst the lively conversation, the door of the private room suddenly opened. Li Junji walked in with a smile, "Sisi, how e you didn’t call me when you came to Hong Kong? If I wasn’t having lunch here today, I wouldn’t have known!"
"You just got married, I didn’t want to disturb the sweet moment with your bride!" Sisi smiled in response.
Li Junji got married a few months ago; his bride was a wealthy heiress from Taiwan, and their marriage was quite a powerful union.
"Even if I was spending my wedding night today, I’d still make time to meet you if you came!" Li Junji said laughingly.
Seeing Li Junji, Sisi suddenly remembered the mission Tian Xinhua had given her, so she said, "Sixth Young Master Li, can we visit your pany? I want to study your successful model and see if we can apply it at my family’s pany."
Li Junji paused for a few seconds and replied, "Of course, anytime. Just give me a call before you e."
He then asked, "What does your family pany do? I can arrange for a similar pany for you to visit."
"We make appliances, Sisi’s family deals with home appliances. Ai Hua Appliances is her family’s," Mo Liu explained from the side.
Li Junji looked shocked, "So Ai Hua Appliances is your family’s? Then what do you need to visit for? Ai Hua is very successful; we should be the ones visiting your pany to learn!"
Sisi smiled shyly and modestly replied, "Oh please, your East Asia Group is globally renowned. Our Ai Hua is just starting out!"
Li Junji was very pleased with Sisi’s words, and without another word, he agreed to let Sisi visit one of the electronics factories under East Asia Group, and he would acpany her personally.
