After a good night’s sleep, just after breakfast the next day, a bicycle bell rang outside the yard.
Yuan Bao ran to the door alertly and barked twice. Lin Chuxia had already guessed who it was.
She called Yuan Bao back and shouted directly to the door, "Tianyu, come on in, Yuan Bao doesn’t bite."
"So it’s called Yuan Bao, huh? The name must have been given by you, Sister Chuxia. It sounds spirited."
Not just spirited, but also auspicious.
Lin Chuxia woke up late today. She had just finished washing up and was about to eat breakfast.
She asked Wang Tianyu if he had eaten breakfast. Knowing he had, she let him sit in the room for a while and wait for her.
Wang Tianyu liked dogs. Seeing that Yuan Bao had no hostility toward him under Lin Chuxia’s guidance, he wanted to play with Yuan Bao in the yard.
Just as he was playing, he suddenly felt a gaze upon him.
He looked up and met a pair of deep eyes.
Qin Yang was observing the extra man in the yard. Though he looked young, he was still in his twenties.
His skin was fair, his hair neatly parted, and his eyes were bright and clear with a hint of... foolishness.
Playing with a dog with such enthusiasm, what could it be if not foolishness?
Wang Tianyu met the man’s deep gaze, and his smile narrowed a bit.
Seeing the man holding a child, he guessed the man’s identity and nodded at him, "Hello."
Qin Yang nodded slightly in response, and then took the child to the kitchen.
Lin Chuxia was eating, with Zhuang Jingshu beside her, chatting casually.
Yesterday, Lin Chuxia had mentioned the assistant matter to her. Zhuang Jingshu took a good look at the young man when she saw Wang Tianyu, and now she was discussing him with Lin Chuxia.
Being an assistant seems insignificant, yet it requires mastering all corporate matters and absolute obedience to the person in power.
This choice must be made with utmost caution, as any self-interest or disloyalty from the assistant can be fatal to the company.
If Lin Chuxia wants to use such a person, she must handle him well.
She must decide which powers can be given away and which must be kept firmly under her control.
Zhuang Jingshu naturally trusts her daughter’s abilities, and even if her daughter makes a wrong judgment, she, as a mother, can back her up.
She came here mainly to have a casual conversation with her.
Upon hearing that Lin Chuxia had helped Wang Tianyu before, and that the young man had always been grateful to her, Zhuang Jingshu was even more satisfied with this choice.
People who understand gratitude usually have good character.
"Although the young man is a bit young, he seems steady enough. Youth has its advantages; it’s energetic, and he’s a university graduate, so his learning ability should be strong. If you spend some time with him, the results shouldn’t disappoint."
Lin Chuxia took a sip of soup and smiled, "Mom, is your judgment reliable? I want to trust it."
Zhuang Jingshu smiled, "Although it’s not 100% accurate, I’ve met enough people over the years, so my judgment is okay."
"Alright, I’ll follow Mom’s advice."
As Lin Chuxia finished speaking, she saw Qin Yang coming in with the child, his expression indifferent.
Zhuang Jingshu saw her son-in-law approaching, stood up, took Qi Qi from him, and left with the child.
Qin Yang sat directly opposite Lin Chuxia.
Lin Chuxia initially didn’t mind, continued eating a few bites, and only when she didn’t hear him speak did she lift her head, "Do you have something to say?"
