"Waaaaah, it's because I think she did the right thing that I went to see her. It was so embarrassing."
"I don't have the courage to go by myself."
“Look at me, I don’t even have a boyfriend yet, and I have to act as my nephew’s parent and apologize to the school’s teachers on his behalf.”
"It's still because of his lifelong habit of confessing his love to anyone he meets."
"That brat still insists that he has found the love of his life and will never change his mind."
“I wanted him to apologize to the school doctor, but he stubbornly refused. I’m not his parents who can force him to bow his head. Now all the pressure of apologizing to the other party is on me.”
"I didn't do anything!!!"
Guoguo roared in grief and indignation, then listlessly lowered her head.
Bai Weiran patted Guoguo on the shoulder to comfort her.
But Guoguo instantly snapped to attention, a flash of inspiration struck her, and her eyes lit up as she grabbed him with her other hand.
"My son, why don't you come with me?"
Bai Weiran: ………………?
It's not my business?
Guoguo, however, became even more excited, her eyes shining, and she clung to Bai Weiran tightly.
How could she forget her beloved eldest son?
Even if he doesn't say a word, just standing there is like a pillar of strength that makes her feel at ease.
Bai Weiran found it both laughable and absurd.
"This is no big deal. Just apologize and that's it. What else do you need me to do?"
"It would be so awkward for me to go by myself! And who knows what trouble my nephew might cause!" Guoguo said with a long face.
"Come with me, my son. This is my lifelong request."
"...If he doesn't listen, don't you still have your fists the size of a clay pot to deal with him?" Bai Weiran asked with amusement.
Where did his threatening aura go?
You're only tough at home, huh?
Guoguo immediately let out a whimper.
"Is hitting you the same as hitting him? If I hit you, you won't tell your parents, but if I hit him, he will tell his parents."
Bai Weiran: …………?
"...So you're just bullying honest people?"
Guoguo accidentally blurted out her true feelings, felt guilty for a second, and then quickly put on a serious expression.
"Putting everything else aside, we're brothers. Are you in or not? It's a fixed price."
"Considering that we've fought side-by-side, stayed up all night, worked ourselves to the bone, and devoted ourselves to the project, losing sleep over it all—"
Bai Weiran called out "Okay" before Guoguo could bring up old grievances.
It's just a matter of accompanying him on the trip and keeping an eye on his nephew to prevent him from causing trouble. What's so difficult about that?
Having received Bai Weiran's approval, she felt reassured and smiled brightly.
"But that female school doctor is quite capable too." Guoguo said as she walked to the elevator with Bai Weiran.
Because the meeting room on the sixteenth floor was full, the meeting with Han Xin was arranged to be held on the seventeenth floor.
They had to go downstairs to get back to their workstations.
Even though it's only one floor, lazy office workers will still take the elevator.
“I thought school doctors were all gentle, wearing white coats, and speaking softly and intellectually, but the school doctor at my nephew’s school is a substitute, and her experience is quite unusual. I heard that she spent a lot of time overseas before, working on medical operations in the Third World, and even served as a battlefield doctor.”
Bai Weiran was about to press the elevator button when his finger involuntarily paused in mid-air.
The pause was so short that Guoguo didn't even notice and continued talking on her own.
"I heard that she set this goal when she was a child."
"Sigh, when I was a kid, I was busy playing in the mud, while others were already aspiring to become doctors and save lives. The difference between people is truly enormous!"
Guoguo sighed.
Bai Weiran did not comment on her words.
The elevator doors opened, and the two people and Wu Ji, who was coming upstairs, met each other's eyes.
Wu Ji greeted him with a smile.
"Oh, Young Master Bai, Guoguo, you're up here too?"
Bai Weiran greeted her calmly, while Guoguo instantly stopped smiling, her expression becoming indifferent and very polite.
"What are you doing up here?" Bai Weiran asked Wu Ji.
"They said the IP division contacted us, maybe they have something to discuss with our project?" Wu Ji waved his hand, giving an attitude of "I don't know either."
He was also innocent; he didn't know anything about it. The company's WeChat account just received the message and came online.
They brushed past each other and entered the elevator. As soon as the elevator doors closed, Guoguo immediately made a face like a dragon king.
"They came to the IP division? Really? Does that mean they're already starting merchandise production for their project? The project hasn't even launched yet, is this what the leadership wants?"
Another important business of the IP Business Unit is the production of peripheral products for projects within the company.
Bai Weiran glanced at Guoguo, somewhat helplessly.
In the past, Guoguo would look at Wu Ji with starry eyes, praising him from time to time for being gentle and gentlemanly.
Ever since Wu Ji's project won the user acquisition battle, Guo Guo has developed an even stronger sense of hatred towards Wu Ji, seeing him as an enemy.
Even though I know it wasn't your fault, I can't let it go.
After all, who hasn't worked countless days and nights to complete a project?
Unfortunately, your project won, taking away our opportunity.
It's either you or me—
The workplace is not kindergarten.
"Don't overthink it," he could only comfort Guoguo.
Recently, Guoguo has been really easily startled and paranoid.
"Why don't you think about how you're going to apologize later?"
With just one sentence, Guoguo immediately calmed down, shrank her neck, and sighed deeply.
"Life is so hard. I must be the most unfortunate aunt in the world."
Wu Ji, who brushed past them, was welcomed into the office of the head of the IP business unit.
"Hey, I have a question for you."
The young lady sat behind the large desk with a smile on her face.
"I heard that Brother Weiran had a first love, who was also his high school classmate. You and Brother Weiran were high school classmates, right?"
"Could you tell me about his first love?"
Chapter Fifty: Guoguo's Eccentric Nephew
Bai Weiran soon met Xiao Dong, the nephew Guo Guo had mentioned, who possessed the qualities of a hidden dragon and a phoenix chick.
This was the first time he had met Guoguo's relatives, and he was shocked by the domineering genes of Guoguo's family.
Xiao Dong's appearance is a perfect replica, a young version of Guo Guo.
But compared to Guoguo's cheerful and heartwarming personality, which always brings a sweet smile to everyone, Xiaodong's first thought was to throw a few fists the size of a clay pot at her.
He pulled his uniform shirt halfway out of his pants, struck a cool, arrogant, and domineering stance with his eyebrows raised.
"Aunt, as I've already said, this is a problem between me and her."
"Don't bother us. I've already explained to the homeroom teacher that this is nothing, but he insists on telling our parents."
The boy acted like a little adult, running his hand through his hair, his expression melancholy and deep, with a hint of impatience in his eyes.
"Hitting is a sign of affection, scolding is a sign of love. She hits me because she likes me, otherwise why would she hit me instead of someone else? Do you understand? We're getting closer, what are you doing here interfering?"
She waved her hand at Guoguo, completely disregarding her aunt.
"Go back now, don't get in my way!"
Guoguo was so angry that the hair on her head stood on end.
"You think I wanted to come? I didn't want to come either, okay? But it's your parents' fault for asking me to come before they went abroad."
Upon hearing this, Xiaodong turned her head away and sighed deeply.
"Auntie, you're lying. This isn't what you really think."
"I've seen through it all; there's only one truth."
Bai Weiran: …………?
Guoguo: …………?
Xiaodong turned her head, her face filled with melancholy.
"Admit it, Auntie! You still can't forget what I said back then."
"I'm sorry... I said I would marry you back then, but that was because I was young and ignorant. Now I'm older and more mature. I've met many more people in this life and I've realized that you're not my type."
"Well, yes, I did say those things back then, but you can't cling to past agreements—"
"We all change. You can't dwell on the past and never move on, Auntie!"
Xiao Dong turned her head, her face filled with sorrow.
"Auntie, you can't try to break us up just because you're jealous that I've found true love. I've seen through your true intentions!!"
