Chapter 764 - 743 Traditional Chinese Medicine (1)_1
No matter how shocked Situ Xin was, she knew that for some time now, taking over "Xin" Apparel Company was a done deal. Hadn’t she seen the smug look on her Aunt Lu Juan’s face, smiling from ear to ear? However, Situ Xin also knew that for many years, although she had been receiving dividends from "Xin" Apparel Company, aside from submitting a fixed number of design sketches each month and sharing some of her off-the-cuff plans, her Aunt Lu Juan managed everything else about the company.
And managing a company, especially a multinational one, came with an immense pressure that was hardly a secret.
This was also why, after coming to her senses, Situ Xin had chosen to compromise with her Aunt Lu Juan, expressing her willingness to share some of the burden during her internship period.
Once this was settled, Situ Xin started her so-called nine-to-five white-collar job. She had originally thought her aunt, who was on vacation, would go traveling for a while.
Situ Xin learned the truth soon enough. As soon as Lu Juan handed over her work to Situ Xin, she excitedly began planning her vacation itinerary. She wanted to fly overseas to meet up with friends she hadn’t seen in a long time. But before she could even make the call to book the flight, her husband Loo Jianxin gave her a woeful look and asked, "What are you planning to do?"
At the time, the good-humored Lu Juan failed to notice her husband’s unusual demeanor and excitedly shared with him, "Oh, I’m planning to book a flight to go abroad for a few days to catch up with some close friends."
As soon as Lu Juan said this, her husband pulled her up abruptly. "Ay, Jianxin, what are you doing?"
"It’s late, and the ticketing offices are already closed. Let’s go to rest," Loo Jianxin said after giving her a good toss during the night. The next day, he packed her up directly and took her to his company, keeping her under close watch.
The official reason was, "Wife should accompany her husband to work and share some of his burden." When Situ Xin heard about this, she laughed so hard she collapsed onto her office desk at "Xin" Apparel Company, holding Baibai.
Who would have thought? Who would have thought her Uncle Jianxin had this side to him? And her Aunt Lu Juan probably didn’t expect her well-planned vacation to fall into her uncle’s hands this time. But Situ Xin, stroking her chin, thought it wasn’t so bad. Over the years, her aunt and uncle were busy with business, and although their affection hadn’t changed, they certainly spent less time together. They could fully take advantage of this time to relive the sticky sweetness of their romance.
Thinking of this, Situ Xin couldn’t help but remember Xiao Muli, who had gone to the Xiao Family Old Mansion three days ago and had not yet returned. However, last night, when Xiao Muli called her, he mentioned he would be back tomorrow after sorting out some matters and meeting with a few well-connected scions from Aristocratic families.
