Jiang Shuxuan paused with his hand still holding the glass. He raised his head to look at Gu Xiqiao, as something unreadable flashed in his eyes.

Shu Chen wasn’t paying attention to him, but had turned her gaze to Gu Xiqiao instead. “Qiao Qiao, don’t bother about him. He’s had a stubborn temper since he was a child, to the point that his father and I have no idea what to do with him.” No one was more aware of Jiang Shxuan’s character than her. All his subordinates had learnt this from him, each and every one of them were stubborn to death.

She was really afraid that his stubbornness would one day chase her daughter-in-law away.

Thinking of this, Shu Chen glanced at Jiang Shuxuan. It was amazing that Gu Xiqiao paid him any mind when he had such an attitude!

Jiang Shuxuan was still looking at Gu Xiqiao, who was smiling at him. He could see his figure reflecting in those clear bright eyes of hers, and when he looked at her, he could feel his heart soften.

“Alright. I’ll head back. It looks like I’ll only be back after two days.” Jiang Shuxuan placed down the glass and stood up.

Shu Chen: “…Wha-?” WTF?

She looked at her son’s cold face, and then to Gu Xiqiao. She felt like she was living in a dream right now.

Shu Chen didn’t come back to her senses until Jiang Shuxuan left. Wait, something was wrong.

Since when had her son been so obedient?

It just took one word from Gu Xiqiao?

That… that was simply abnormal!

Shu Chen picked up her phone, shooting off a message to Jiang Han—[Our son has changed!] If there were such matters again in the future, she definitely had to properly take care of Qiao Qiao so she would handle it!

Gu Xiqiao went back upstairs to check on the information on Yang Enterprise, while Shu Chen played on her laptop beside her. Every time Shu Chen faced a more difficult mob that tested her skills, she would raise her head to look at Gu Xiqiao. And every time, Jiji would come to her side, easily displaying its skills, tapping away on the keyboard and passing the stage in a short time.

Shu Chen looked up, surprised. “You can also play this, Jiji?” And its hand speed was so fast, it could probably even play professionally, right?

Jiji raised its head bashfully. “Beauty Qiao is the one who taught me.”

Shu Chen: “…” She couldn’t even compare to a robot! ┭┮﹏┭┮

Gu Xiqiao gave Jiji a look, raising an eyebrow. “…” Don’t bully Aunt Shu.

Jiji: “…” It’s not like I can help it! I’m just like that!

Gu Xiqiao: “…” Control yourself!

Jiji: “…” You… you’re basically asking me to choose between eating sh*t or poison!

Gu Xiqiao: “…” So you’ll eat one of them?

Jiji: “…” Boss, I’m sorry, I was wrong.

Gu Xiqiao turned around after their silent exchange, continuing her reading on the pile of information on Yang Enterprise. They were a public listed company, and their financial statements were published annually. However, with one look she could tell that they had window dressed it, it was too perfect. So she simply hacked into Yang Enterprise’s database and retrieved the information that she wanted.
