Study room Su Qi and Gu Yanjing were discussing matters, while Qiao Yuxian sat nearby, working on her PPT. In her fourth year, she had an additional course related to educational research, involving both theoretical studies and practical application. Simulating elementary, middle, and high school classrooms. She was currently preparing for an elementary school lesson presentation. She seemed focused, operating with one hand while the other held a fork, eating watermelon. Su Qi and Gu Yanjing were reporting on company issues, and after they finished, there was a brief silence. Gu Yanjing lifted his gaze. Su Qi glanced slightly towards Qiao Yuxian. Gu Yanjing dropped his gaze again and said, "Go ahead." Su Qi nodded and said, "Feng Chuanbai from Ghost Street wants to see you." Qiao Yuxian accidentally typed an extra punctuation mark, which she calmly deleted. Gu Yanjing looked at the document in his hand and asked, "What for?" "He probably ran into some trouble and wants your help," Su Qi replied. "He controls Ghost Street, who wouldn’t give him a few nods of respect?" Gu Yanjing said casually. "Perhaps he’s hit a tough spot," Su Qi said, "Otherwise, he wouldn’t come looking for you." Gu Yanjing remained silent, glancing at the watermelon plate. Qiao Yuxian had already eaten more than half. Su Qi followed his gaze and remained quiet for a while, then asked, "Mr. Gu, would you like to meet him?" When Qiao Yuxian’s fork reached for the plate again, Gu Yanjing took it away. Qiao Yuxian paused and looked at Gu Yanjing. Gu Yanjing glanced at her and said to Su Qi, "Arrange a time." Capital City boasted numerous aristocrats, but there were three major powers. Gu Group, Ghost Street, and the mysterious Yunzhong Building. The three forces were independent, each developing on their own. Ghost Street’s sudden approach meant Gu Yanjing had to meet them. He was curious about what issue made Ghost Street seek him out. "Alright." "Investigate what significant projects Chu Zhengran and Lin Huai Shu’s teams have," Gu Yanjing said casually. Su Qi was startled. Gu Yanjing coldly uttered three words, "Take them over." Qiao Yuxian raised an eyebrow. How could this man not spare his own brothers? Su Qi took a deep breath, wondering what those young masters had done to provoke Mr. Gu into taking such harsh actions. "Yes," he replied. After that, Gu Yanjing assigned Su Qi some additional tasks. Qiao Yuxian didn’t pay much attention, focusing on the remaining watermelon pieces. She slyly reached her hand bit by bit for it, but just as she was about to grab it, Gu Yanjing held her hand. Su Qi’s eyes twitched a couple of times uncontrollably. Qiao Yuxian pulled her hand back, muttered a soft hum, and continued with her PPT. After Su Qi left, Gu Yanjing instructed him to take the remaining watermelon away. Qiao Yuxian’s gaze followed the watermelon plate until Su Qi closed the door behind him. She sat in her chair, arms crossed, pouting, glaring at him angrily. Gu Yanjing glanced at her, signed his name on the document, and said, "Eat less cold food." "I like cold food," Qiao Yuxian said. "Then don’t like it," Gu Yanjing replied. Qiao Yuxian: "!" How could this man be so domineering! I like cold food! I insist on liking it! Qiao Yuxian grabbed a tissue and tore it into shreds. Gu Yanjing glanced at her again and asked, "At the end of the month is the Lin Entertainment anniversary banquet, do you want to go?" Qiao Yuxian’s angry little expression paused, she thought and said, "I don’t want to. There will be too many people, I have social anxiety." Gu Yanjing: "......" "Are you going?" Qiao Yuxian asked. "Yes." "Will Young Master Lin invite you?" Qiao Yuxian said, "You just tried to snatch his business." Gu Yanjing looked up at her. Qiao Yuxian shrank her neck, chuckled, and hurriedly returned to her assignment. ... Qiao Yuxian stayed in the study with Gu Yanjing until late, and returned to her room to sleep only after he finished his work. The next morning, she and Gu Yanjing left the villa together, and when the car arrived, she got into his car first. Gu Yanjing watched her from outside the car. Qiao Yuxian said, "I argued with Shang Chen yesterday, I don’t want to ride with him today. You drive me." Su Qi looked at Gu Yanjing. Gu Yanjing didn’t say anything, closed the car door, walked around to the other side, got in, and drove her to school. She had two classes in the morning, and after class, she surfed short videos in the classroom. Just as she was about to turn off her phone and leave, a message came in. It was from Liu Zhou. [Qiao Group’s stock hit the limit down this morning.] Qiao Yuxian looked at this message, froze for a moment, then her expression turned cold: [What happened?] Liu Zhou: [It’s the Jiang Family making moves. A few days ago, Jiang Shouzhuo visited Qiao Group.] Liu Zhou: [Besides the stock hitting the limit down today, several partners terminated their cooperation with Qiao Group recently, all due to the Jiang Family’s machinations.] Matters concerning Qiao Group, Liu Zhou reported to Qiao Yuxian only after investigating thoroughly. Qiao Yuxian lightly furrowed her brows, quickly understanding the situation. She packed her things, stood up, and left the classroom. After leaving the teaching building, she was about to call Qiao Yu, when she bumped into Jiang Shouzhuo. Jiang Shouzhuo held a basketball in his hand, seemingly heading to play with friends. When he saw her, he approached with a playful smile, "Did you hear about Qiao Family’s issues?" Qiao Yuxian kept her expression cold and stared at him. "Let me tell you, what Qiao Group is encountering now is just the tip of the iceberg. There’s more trouble to come," Jiang Shouzhuo said slowly, lips curled, "I not only want it to delist, but I want it bankrupt." Qiao Yuxian’s face was expressionless, barely raising an eyebrow. "Of course, the choice I offered you before still holds," Jiang Shouzhuo said, "Choose one, and I’ll let it go." Qiao Yuxian sported a high ponytail, her skin reflecting the sunlight, stray hair floating in the breeze, and her enchanting fox-like eyes now layered with cold frost. She took a step forward. Jiang Shouzhuo instinctively stepped back two steps, warily asking, "What are you doing?" He truly feared her, recalling past encounters. If it weren’t for the many people nearby at the teaching building entrance, he wouldn’t even dare to approach her. Qiao Yuxian sneered dismissively, saying lightly, "Don’t stop, I want to see what tricks you have next. Let’s find out how big a wave one Jiang Family can stir, and how long that wave can last." Jiang Shouzhuo looked at her, then chuckled lightly, "Qiao Yuxian, do you understand what you’re saying?" Qiao Yuxian ignored him, walked away directly. Not bothering to give him extra attention. Outside the school, she sent Liu Zhou another message: [Check Jiang Family’s accounts and what they’ve done recently, return it double.] Liu Zhou: [Yes.]
