"By the way, about Mr. Rayneâs matters..." Xia Chuyi asked, "Youâre so busy, can you find the time to meet with them privately?"
"I really canât find the time," Huo Shiqian said, "However, before coming here, I already communicated with Rayne."
"During the visit itinerary, there is a section where we meet with the local Chinese community," Huo Shiqian said, "Then, weâll take the opportunity to meet one another."
Xia Chuyi nodded, saying, "Thatâs the only way then."
"Oh, Brother Shi Qian, how is my family doing?" Xia Chuyi asked Huo Shiqian, "Every time I call, you only tell me good things and not the bad ones."
Upon hearing this, Huo Shiqian replied, "There really isnât anything bad."
"If you really want to say something..." Huo Shiqian said, "Your second brother came back from the military and is pestering your parents to go south and start a business."
"Huh?" Xia Chuyi asked in surprise, "To start a business?"
She knew about her second brother being "released" from the military.
But this is the first time sheâs heard about his plan to start a business.
"With my second brotherâs impulsive nature, wouldnât he be swindled and end up selling himself?" Xia Chuyi couldnât help but say.
Upon hearing this, Huo Shiqian couldnât help but laugh, "Donât think so poorly of your second brother."
"He sometimes indeed isnât very shrewd," Huo Shiqian said, "But if he can change his impulsive nature, with his fearless personality, he can still achieve something."
His fearless personality sometimes can also be calledâbravery.
In business, bravery is essential.
"Moreover, with your second brotherâs status," Huo Shiqian continued, "Nobody would dare to cheat him."
Hearing this, Xia Chuyi nodded, saying, "Thatâs true."
The Second Young Master Ou isnât the type who would hide his identity to engage in business.
With the backing of the Ou Family, and the courage of the Second Young Master, as Huo Shiqian said, he might just succeed.
"Forget it, letâs not worry about my second brother," Xia Chuyi said, "Even if he loses everything, he still has food to eat at home."
But surprisingly, Huo Shiqian said, "If he loses everything, heâs unlikely to come home willingly."
"Xiao Cong said heâs going into business to save for your dowry," Huo Shiqian calmly said, "If he loses the dowry meant for you, he most likely wonât have the face to return."
Xia Chuyi: ...
Seeing his girl speechless, Huo Shiqianâs eyes carried a hint of laughter.
"By the way, among the attendees this time, thereâs someone you know," Huo Shiqian said.
"Someone I know?" Xia Chuyi asked, "Xiao Wang and Taozi and Lizi?"
"No," Huo Shiqian shook his head, "Itâs Xiao Jingqi."
"Junior Sister Jingqi?" This answer truly wasnât in Xia Chuyiâs expectations, "Why did she come along?"
"Your junior sister is not an ordinary person," Huo Shiqian said, "With her strength, she made quite a splash upon entering the military."
"Choosing her to come along is for one because there are women in the delegation, and she can act as a bodyguard."
"Secondly...your junior sister has a photographic memory."
This remark subtly hinted at the real reason for Xiao Jingqiâs presence.
Xia Chuyi: ...
So, her junior sister is a real genius?
"Moreover, speaking of which, Xiao Jingqi was recommended by your big brother," Huo Shiqian said.
"My big brother?" Upon hearing this, Xia Chuyi became somewhat curious.
