["I've practiced enough, I think I can now take on a woman single-handedly."]
Shen Yin was speechless.
["Then do you want to challenge me?"]
Shu Yi didn't dare, as she knew Shen Yin's abilities.
When Shen Yin returned to Qinghe Villa, she played with Xu Yunzheng for a while before preparing lunch. At the Yuangroup, Xu Xiuhe summoned Liu Bo to his office again and asked him about the progress of the marriage banquet preparations and whether the detailed plan was ready.
Liu Bo was truly surprised that the president was serious and asked him for the plan. Fortunately, he was diligent in his work and efficient in handling matters, so the plan was already finalized.
After receiving a satisfactory answer, Xu Xiuhe told Liu Bo to send him the plan later.
Liu Bo readily agreed.
"This afternoon, go to Qinghe Villa and take my wife and child to the industrial and commercial bureau." Then, as if Xu Xiuhe had thought of something, he said, "Never mind, just handle the remaining documents, I'll go back myself."
Liu Bo looked at the pile of documents on the desk, feeling a bit panicked. The president was becoming more and more unreasonable, having just arrived and his butt was still warm, and he was already leaving.
It must be said that Xu Xiuhe timed his arrival at Qinghe Villa perfectly. When he got home, Shen Yin and Xu Yunzheng were having their meal.
"Mommy, Yunzheng got up this morning and slept in his own room," Xu Yunzheng said, pointing to the bedroom next to theirs.
"That's because Yunzheng wanted to sleep in the small bed last night, and your father carried you to that room," Xu Xiuhe said, changing his shoes in the stairwell.
Shen Yin and Xu Yunzheng both turned their heads: "Daddy."
"Have you missed me?" Xu Xiuhe said the words to Xu Yunzheng, but his eyes were on Shen Yin.
"Yes."
Shen Yin: "Why are you back?"
"The company isn't busy." Xu Xiuhe replied.
Shen Yin was now a bit suspicious. The news online about him being a workaholic and a young outstanding talent in Rong City seemed to be false. She didn't see any of that. Just based on the fact that he went to inquire about his employees' personal relationships, Shen Yin felt that Xu Xiuhe did not match the image of a president.
Shen Yin half-jokingly, half-seriously said, "Your company, the employees earn money to support you, right?"
After washing his hands, Xu Xiuhe went to the kitchen to serve the food and sat down at the table, saying, "I suppose so, but my wife is very capable, she can support me."
"Alright, let's just eat."
Xu Yunzheng thought for a while, but still couldn't remember when he had said he wanted to sleep in the small bed last night. His little face was full of confusion. "Yunzheng can't remember saying he wanted to sleep in the small bed last night. Yunzheng wants to sleep in the big bed with Daddy and Mommy tonight."
Xu Yunzheng said this in one breath three times, and Shen Yin was afraid the child would get mad at himself. She glanced at Xu Xiuhe: "You're already a grown-up, why are you still bullying your son?" Shen Yin picked up a piece of green vegetable and put it in Xu Yunzheng's bowl.
Xu Yunzheng's eyes were still on the meat in the plate, reluctantly eating the green vegetable.
"Are you saying I'm old?" Xu Xiuhe asked seriously.
Shen Yin didn't say anything.
"I'm only four years older than you. Xue Jingrui is six years older than Qi Ji, and Qi Ji doesn't think Xue Jingrui is old," Xu Xiuhe replied, not knowing that Qi Ji now treats Xue Jingrui like a sister.
"How are they doing? They said they'd come to me to have their wedding attire custom-made, but they still haven't come. Is Xue Jingrui still interested in Qi Yan?" Shen Yin didn't finish the question, but was observing Xu Xiuhe's expression, after all, Qi Yan was his ex-girlfriend.
"He probably doesn't like her anymore. Of course, I lost interest in her a long time ago. I was young back then, so I might not have been able to tell if it was real love." Xu Xiuhe looked very serious, almost as if he was taking an oath.
"I didn't ask you," Shen Yin's expression was a bit uncomfortable. Xu Xiuhe's response made her seem overly concerned.
"But I still have to answer you. I heard from Zhi Yuan that Jingrui and Qi Ji went out to eat and ran into Qi Yan, and Qi Yan acted like Jingrui's girlfriend, and Qi Ji even suspected that he had interfered in someone else's relationship."
Shen Yin also knew about this. Shu Yi had told her, and she had told her a lot, so she probably knew more details than Xu Xiuhe, especially Shu Yi's criticism of Qi Yan, which she felt could be made into a book.
When Xu Xiuhe drove Shen Yin and Xu Yunzheng to the industrial and commercial bureau, it was the hottest time of the day. Xu Xiuhe took out a large umbrella from the car and stood next to Shen Yin.
Worried about Shen Yin's health, Xu Xiuhe picked up Xu Yunzheng, holding the child with one hand and holding the umbrella with the other. In fact, he could have simply asked someone else to help handle the production license, but Shen Yin didn't want to bother others and didn't trust anyone else, so he just accompanied her.
Xu Xiuhe accompanied her the entire time. In the end, the documents were submitted to the staff for stamping. After waiting for a long time, they still hadn't gotten the documents back.
Just as Xu Xiuhe was about to call the head of the industrial and commercial bureau, the person came out and said that the furniture factory did not qualify for the production license, the reason being that the provided information was incomplete.
Xu Xiuhe didn't know when getting a certificate had become so strict.
Xu Xiuhe made a phone call. Shen Yin didn't know who he called, but soon the person responsible for stamping the documents hurriedly came out, apologizing profusely, serving tea and water. They also stamped the documents.
Xu Xiuhe's tone was not very good, and now everyone in the office recognized Xu Xiuhe, and no one dared to speak.
On the way back, Shen Yin thanked Xu Xiuhe. Shen Yin didn't understand, thinking it was because her documents were incomplete that the industrial and commercial bureau didn't issue the license, but Xu Xiuhe knew that with the materials they had, they should have been able to get the license easily, unless someone had interfered.
"Hey, look up the details of the person in charge of the industrial and commercial bureau and the staff on duty today."
A few minutes later, a bunch of messages were sent to Xu Xiuhe's phone. He looked at them, and his expression became even worse.
"Make it so that her studio can't get any business." Xu Xiuhe said on the phone.
Shen Yin didn't know what was going on, only hearing the studio asking, "Did something happen?"
"No, don't worry about it." Xu Xiuhe replied, but in his heart he was thinking that this might still be too light, as he still had a lot of leverage.
"Xiuhe, can I discuss another thing with you?" Shen Yin said cautiously.
"Go ahead."
"I'm going to Yang City tomorrow. I found a furniture craftsman whose family has been woodworkers for generations, and his skills are quite exquisite. I want to invite him to do the work, but he's usually not easy to get and has a very peculiar personality, so I want to go there in person to invite him."
"How long will you be gone?" Xu Xiuhe asked.
Shen Yin was still unsure if one day would be enough, so she replied, "I'm not sure yet, maybe one day."
