Chapter 161: Zhao Qingyu’s Request

Morning.

After a night of activity, Xu Shaochen felt refreshed. After all, he had discovered a new position with Linda.

As the saying goes, ‘Technique is strength.’

After changing several positions last night, Xu Shaochen felt as if he was full of energy, ready to take on anything. It seems the old saying holds true!

When he returned from his morning exercises, Linda had already prepared breakfast.

At this moment, Linda was only wearing one of Xu Shaochen’s shirts, her delicate, pale feet bare on the floor. Her golden hair was casually tied up behind her, exuding an exotic charm.

“Good morning, Boss.”

Hearing Xu Shaochen’s footsteps, Linda turned around and teasingly winked at him. The hickey left by Xu Shaochen on her fair neck last night was still clearly visible.

“Good morning.”

Xu Shaochen smiled, went to the bathroom to take a shower and change his clothes, and then came out for breakfast.

“Boss, Tony’s stupid arrival last night signals something. You might be in danger soon.”

At the dining table, Linda carefully peeled an egg for Xu Shaochen while speaking with a serious expression.

After all, Tony was just a pawn. The real concern is the person behind him.

Xu Shaochen nodded: “Don’t worry, they don’t dare to go too far within the country. Otherwise, it would be provoking the government, which would be a big deal.”

Even when Xu Shaochen wanted to crush a few ants, someone had to clean up afterwards. Otherwise, it would be easy to attract attention.

As for these foreigners, who might not even have entered the country legally, if they dare to cause trouble, the country’s iron fist will teach them a lesson in no time.

Of course, Xu Shaochen wasn’t going to be careless either. After all, he was now involved in wealth that could make anyone envious.

Seeing that Xu Shaochen understood, Linda wisely stopped talking and focused on serving him breakfast.

After finishing breakfast, Xu Shaochen left the house.

Long San and Long Si were already waiting for him outside.

This morning, he had to go to the School. At noon, he needed to pick up his car from the 4S Store, and in the afternoon, he would visit Dafeng Factory with Mei Liangxin to discuss the details of its acquisition.

“Long San, I trust you have your ways to get guns. From now on, all four of you should carry one.”

Sitting in the back seat of the Rolls-Royce, Xu Shaochen spoke casually.

He was very concerned about his safety, as no one could guarantee that group wouldn’t act recklessly. More guns meant more security.

“Understood, Boss.”

Long San nodded. As a former mercenary with battlefield experience, getting a few guns wasn’t an issue for him.

There was some traffic today, so they arrived at the School a bit later than usual.

When Xu Shaochen entered the classroom, Zhao Qingyu was already in the middle of a lecture.

“Student Shaochen is here. Come in and find a seat to listen.”

Zhao Qingyu spoke softly, her tone unusually gentle as she looked at Xu Shaochen.

Xu Shaochen was stunned. What was going on? He had expected Zhao Qingyu to scold him, considering how many classes he had missed recently.

Instead, Zhao Qingyu treated him like this, leaving him completely bewildered!

He dazedly walked into the classroom and sat next to Xie Wei. Lowering his voice, he asked, “Did Teacher Zhao win the lottery?”

“No!” Xie Wei shook her head, just as puzzled.

“Student Shaochen, please come to the teacher’s office.”

After the class ended, Zhao Qingyu dropped this line as she looked at Xu Shaochen.

Xu Shaochen thought to himself, could she have been saving face for him just now, and now she was going to settle the score in private? He couldn’t help but feel confused as he walked to Zhao Qingyu’s office.

“Here, student Shaochen, have some water.”

Zhao Qingyu greeted Xu Shaochen warmly, pouring him a glass of water with a gentle smile on her face.

“Teacher Zhao, what exactly do you want? Can you be straightforward? The way you’re acting is making me nervous!”

Xu Shaochen took the glass, looking at Zhao Qingyu helplessly. This woman was terrible at showing kindness—so awkward!

“Shall I just say it then?” Zhao Qingyu tentatively asked. After a moment of hesitation, she finally spoke, somewhat embarrassed: “My younger brother is in his fourth year now, and I want him to intern at your Company. What do you think?”

After she finished speaking, she quickly added, “Of course, if it’s too difficult for you, just forget it.”

Xu Shaochen couldn’t help but laugh. This was such a small matter; was it really necessary to make it so formal?

He had met her brother Zhao Qingfeng once in the Hospital last time and had a good impression of him. Arranging an internship for him at the Company wasn’t a big deal.

But it was interesting that this was the first time Zhao Qingyu had asked him for a favor.

“So, is it okay or not? Give me an answer!”

Seeing Xu Shaochen looking at her playfully, Zhao Qingyu was a mix of shame and anger. She stomped her foot in frustration.

This was her first time asking someone for a favor, and it had to be from her student, making her feel even more embarrassed.

“It’s okay, of course! Helping out a brother-in-law is what a good brother-in-law should do, right? Isn’t that so, Teacher Zhao?”

Xu Shaochen nodded, looking at Zhao Qingyu with a grin.

“Pfft! No good words come out of your mouth! Who’s your brother-in-law, you shameless jerk.”

Zhao Qingyu blushed and spat at him, though she was now used to Xu Shaochen’s teasing.

After all, he was just getting some verbal satisfaction, not a big deal.

“Give me his number. I’ll take him to my Company later. I have other things to do by noon.” Xu Shaochen said to Zhao Qingyu.

Zhao Qingyu quickly replied, “I’ll go with you. It’s his first day at work, and I’m concerned.”

“What’s there to be concerned about? What, do you think I’d sell him?” Xu Shaochen couldn’t help but gripe. Was Teacher Zhao possibly a brother-con?

Zhao Qingyu glared at Xu Shaochen: “Of course I want to see where my brother will be working… Ah! What are you doing? Let go of me.”

Before she could finish, her face turned red as she struggled because Xu Shaochen had pulled her into his arms when she wasn’t paying attention.

Xu Shaochen whispered hotly into Zhao Qingyu’s ear, “It’s been a while since I appreciated those legs of yours.”

“Let go of me first; I’ll send you a photo tonight.” Zhao Qingyu’s body trembled, her face turning bright red, and her heart started racing.

Xu Shaochen grinned wickedly: “No need to trouble yourself. I have a better idea.”

“What’s that?” Zhao Qingyu instinctively asked. Then she instantly regretted it. What proper ideas could this little rascal have?

Besides, what they were doing wasn’t a proper thing anyway! Xu Shaochen smiled mysteriously: “You’ll find out soon. Let’s go pick up my brother-in-law first.”

“Watch it! If my brother hears you calling him that, he’ll beat you.” Zhao Qingyu rolled her eyes.

Xu Shaochen was unconcerned: “No worry, he can’t beat me, nor can he beat my bodyguards.”

Zhao Qingyu: “……”
