"Is your sister here too?"
Seeing Xia Xu following all the way to the agreed meeting room, Liu Xiulan asked in surprise.
"Yeah."
Xia Xu nodded reluctantly. He felt that this was the only explanation he could give.
Sister Le Yao is still a sister, there is nothing wrong with her.
I hope Sister Le Yao can be smart after entering the door...
"Hey, Boss, you and Manager Fang are up here together? I was just about to go down to pick them up."
Chen Leyao just pushed the door open and walked out.
Xia Xu: “…”
I feel so heartbroken. Why do my dogs and employees keep stabbing me in the back at critical moments
"boss?"
Liu Xiulan looked around and finally ruled out all possibilities. Her eyes fixed on Xia Xu, her face full of astonishment.
Although she was just accompanying her husband here this time, she still knew the purpose of this trip.
This time, her husband is here to represent China Overseas Investment to sign a share transfer contract for Feizhou Studio with Xinghai Venture Capital. The person who comes out now is naturally the representative of Xinghai Venture Capital, General Manager Chen.
But now General Manager Chen actually calls Xia Xu the boss
"… "
Chen Leyao was actually very good at observing people's words and expressions. She saw Xia Xu and Fang Dahai as soon as she pushed the door open, so she didn't think much about it and just said hello.
After noticing that the atmosphere was not right, I realized that I seemed to have messed up something, but it seemed too late to make amends. If I forced an explanation, any excuse would seem very poor.
Besides, she had no idea what the situation was. Having already made a mistake, she dared not act rashly again. She could only turn her attention to Xia Xu.
"Um… "
Xia Xu carefully chose his words: "Teacher Liu, I am deeply impressed by your teachings. I finally felt something a while ago and clearly understood what you said. In my situation, I have no hope for my parents, so I can only rely on my own hard work to strive to become a rich generation.
So it makes sense that I worked hard and busted my butt off during my free time and built a company, right?”
Liu Xiulan looked annoyed and said, "Are you trying to tell me that you only used your time after school and on weekends to start from scratch and eventually made tens of millions, and then founded a company, and it's a venture capital company?"
"Uh... If I say yes, would you believe me?"
Xia Xu himself had no expectations for this.
"What do you think?"
Liu Xiulan didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
A high school student without any elders to take care of him, built a company from scratch in two months with a net worth of tens of millions? If a novel dares to write this, it will be criticized as "insulting to intelligence".
Now she remembered a rumor mentioned by students in her class a while ago, saying that Xia Xu was actually a rich second-generation and the uncle who helped him ask for leave was actually his employee.
At first she thought it was just nonsense, after all, Xia Xu's file was very clear, but now she is beginning to believe it.
Or you have to believe it, it is much more reliable than the claim that one can make tens of millions from nothing in two months.
"But that's the truth."
Xia Xu spread his hands and said, "I have to correct what you said, Mr. Liu. I didn't make tens of millions. I only made 500,000 and invested in Feizhou Studio. The studio became popular purely because of good luck, so this shouldn't be something too difficult to understand, right?"
"So tell me, how did you manage to make half a million dollars in such a short period of time while having a hard time maintaining food and shelter? It seems that everything the teacher could think of is written into the law."
Liu Xiulan obviously still didn't believe it.
Others who start a business with hundreds of thousands of dollars in capital cannot guarantee that they can earn 500,000, let alone 500,000 from scratch. At Xia Xu's age, many bosses are unwilling to pay him if he goes out to work.
To him, there seems to be no difference between earning 500,000 and earning tens of millions. Both are incredible things. If he can do the former, the latter will be a matter of course.
"It does have something to do with the law, but it's not about breaking the law, it's about fighting crime..."
Xia Xu had no choice but to briefly talk about his "legendary deeds" of making money entirely from bounties and his skyrocketing net worth in two weeks - otherwise he wondered if he, as a teacher, would have to play the role of a guardian of justice.
After hearing this, Liu Xiulan and Fang Dahai's expressions became even more interesting.
My goodness, is this the start of another heroic drama of high school students bravely fighting gangsters and crime
This seems even more bizarre than you making half a million in such a short time, right
"I didn't expect you, boss, to do such heroic deeds."
Unlike Fang Dahai and Liu Xiulan, Chen Leyao was listening with great interest.
He naturally believed in Xia Xu's abilities, but he did not expect that his boss would have such a legendary experience.
The idea of taking advantage of the police station to make the first pot of gold is quite bizarre. Even the most melodramatic TV dramas are probably not filmed this way.
However, since this happened in reality, its existence is reasonable, and it also better reflects the ability of the boss. It is not only about his ability to judge people, but also about his courage to fight and his ability to strategize.
Otherwise, everyone knows that the police offer rewards for gambling and wanted criminals, but how many people dare to report them without fear of trouble? How many people have successfully found criminals and reported them quietly
"There's a lot more you didn't expect."
Xia Xu rolled his eyes at Chen Leyao in annoyance. If she hadn't revealed all his secrets when they met, he could have just fooled her and gotten away with it. There would have been no need to waste so much time and energy on her.
And now the head teacher already knows his background, so he can forget about pretending to be pitiful and asking for leave in the future. The teacher might even suspect that he was deliberately hiding something and trying to be pitiful.
Fortunately, there are only a few days left before the college entrance examination, otherwise I would be at least half socially dead in this situation.
"Mr. Fang, Mrs. Fang, there's no point in standing at the door chatting. Let's go to the conference room first and finish our business. How about we find a restaurant to chat slowly?"
Chen Leyao also felt a little guilty for a moment when Xia Xu glanced at her, so she pretended not to see it and quickly spoke up to smooth things over.
"Yes, yes, yes. First in, first in."
Fang Dahai also patted his forehead and agreed, saying, "Wife, we are not in school now, so don't get into trouble and ask Boss Xia questions."
As he said this, he looked at Xia Xu and made a small joke: "We still rely on Boss Xia for our livelihood. If we make him unhappy, he will raise my price again."
"Mr. Fang, you are joking. Business is business. Since we have agreed on it, I will not change it. Besides, it is our Xinghai Venture Capital that is trying to sell it at a good price. I should be the one relying on Mr. Fang for a living."
Xia Xu also took over the conversation with a smile.
Because Fang Dahai called him "Boss Xia", which is obviously a more formal title, he also called him "Mr. Fang".
There was nothing wrong with what he said, but in Liu Xiulan's eyes, seeing her husband chatting and laughing with the high school students she taught, calling them "sir or boss", she couldn't help feeling a sense of weirdness.
But seeing how Xia Xu handled things with ease, how he could talk both nice and dirty, and how he made jokes while being flawless in his words and deeds, she could only secretly exclaim in her heart, "Monster."
She had long noticed that Xia Xu was much more mature than his peers, but she had never expected him to be so mature.
Not to mention high school students, even the career elites who have entered the society may not be able to be so calm and composed. She could not find any adequate adjective other than enchanting.
