Chapter 101: Du Xiaoqing's Depression

  "You, you, I can't argue with you. Next time let your grandmother come, I'm not coming." Old Du said with a wave of his hand, "I don't dare to offend either side, I won't try to please both sides, if I can't afford to offend them then I'll just hide, tomorrow, no, today, no, wait, that's it, I'll go traveling right away. Out of sight, out of mind, you all do whatever you want."

  "Hehe."

  Seeing Grandpa acting like a child and throwing a tantrum, Du Xiaoqing couldn't help but laugh again. That stunning smile was only visible to Old Man Du at this moment.

  "Hey! Granddaughter, it's good for you to smile more often. Don't always have a gloomy face. I've heard people call you 'Iceberg Beauty' behind your back. They say that with your icy temperature, even the Titanic would sink if it came near you - one ship sinks, ten ships sink, no exceptions."

  Du Lao looked at his smiling granddaughter and sighed.

  "Hmph! I've also heard that it's just a bunch of incompetent and boring mentally handicapped people who are scheming behind my back, I won't take it to heart."

  Du Xiangying said it quite casually, but her face turned a few degrees colder, and the indoor temperature seemed to drop by several degrees at once.

  "Hehe..."

  Grandpa Du looked at his granddaughter, who was on the verge of an outburst, and smiled awkwardly with a hint of fear, while subtly rubbing away the goosebumps that had risen on his skin.

  Du Xiangying is perfect in every way, beautiful, filial, and has impressive business skills. However, no matter what, she's just a 23 or 24-year-old girl in her flower season. At this age, others are still enjoying their youth in college, while she's already become the CEO, steering a Fortune Global 500 company.

  She also yearns for a passionate love, and has the same fantasies as an ordinary girl, fantasizing about the person she deeply loves being all-powerful, perfect in every way, and loving her dearly, caring for her, and at a moment when all eyes are on her, wearing a golden armor, riding on a rainbow-colored cloud to come and get her.

  The cruel reality told her that fantasy was just a fantasy, and such a perfect man would never appear in real life. She had also been in contact with some so-called elite gentlemen under her grandfather's arrangement, but after getting to know them, Du Xiaoying was thoroughly disappointed with them.

  Those so-called excellent elites, in front of her, performed too badly. At that time, many people saw Du Xiaoyu's absolutely beautiful face and noble and sacred temperament, like a snow lotus flower blooming on an iceberg, revealing their wolfish nature.

  His eyes were wide open, staring intently at Du Xiaoqing, and his mouth was still inadvertently drooling, as if he wanted to swallow her whole, making Du Xiaoqing feel extremely disgusted.

  These people were immediately blacklisted by Du Xiangying and became untouchables.

  The remaining ones who luckily passed the test were also recognized by Du Xiaoying in a conversation with her later, and they were not relying on their ancestors' prestige to make a show of themselves, but rather those who wrote boastful talks, none of them had real skills.

  Grandma Ke still thinks about holding her great-grandson every day. Seeing that she is not satisfied with this group of people, Grandpa arranges for her to meet those successful and noble people again and again. Du Xiaoqing is a filial person and doesn't want Grandma to be heartbroken, so she can only endure the discomfort and attend one after another, but each time it ends in disappointment.

  In the end, she couldn't take it anymore. In a fit of anger, she took advantage of a bet with her grandfather and ran to the company, finally escaping the nightmare-like life.

  After arriving here, Du Xiang found that she was handling everything in the company with ease, and she also possessed the majestic aura of a superior person. Moreover, the increasing momentum of being a superior person also brought her unexpected changes.

  First, she became more charming, after all, confident women are the most beautiful. Later on, those who were infatuated with her because of her noble family background and stunning looks also decreased, because they couldn't withstand the aura of a superior person like Du Xiaoqing.

  There was a manager who made a mistake before, and Du Xiaoyan called him to the office. She didn't say a word and continued working, leaving that manager hanging for over 20 minutes. In the end, that manager couldn't bear the aura emanating from Du Xiaoyan and had a heart attack, ending up in the hospital.

  Even a seasoned corporate executive couldn't withstand Du Xiaoying's overbearing attitude, let alone those spoiled rich kids. After meeting her a few times, they couldn't bear her intensely intimidating gaze and made excuses to avoid seeing her again.

  Du Xiangying thought that being the general manager was actually quite good, as it allowed her to keep a clear mind and distance herself from annoying people and things. At the same time, she could do what she liked and had the opportunity to fully utilize all that she had learned in her heart, so she stayed at the company for longer and longer periods of time, and recently even became too lazy to go home.

  Even Du Xiaoying's grandmother was anxious, and she hurriedly brought over her own old man, setting out the options: either you persuade my granddaughter to come back, or you persuade me to leave, otherwise I'll nag you every day, making it impossible for you to have peace of mind, cornering Old Du into a dead end.

  Helpless, he had to run to his granddaughter's place to try his luck, but as expected, he was beaten by Du Xiaoqing and suffered a crushing defeat, leaving him so angry that he had to go out for a walk to cool off.

  Fully played the essence of the Thirty-Six Stratagems, if I don't provoke you, can't I hide? Both sides bully me, I won't provoke either side, then I'll leave, hiding far away, you guys come yourselves, old man, I'm not getting involved.

  At this moment, Du Lao, who thought he had already escaped the sea of suffering, was in a good mood and couldn't help but say when he remembered his granddaughter's behavior.

  "Granddaughter, what were you just doing? You called so many people back and forth. Did something big happen? That doesn't seem right either. I recognize a few of those people, they seem to be from the Ministry of Finance. What did you call them here for?"

  Although Mr. Du hasn't been managing the company for a while, his memory is still quite good, and he still remembers the faces of several small employees. If they knew that they could be remembered by the chairman, I estimate they would be so excited that their blood vessels would burst. With thousands of people in the company, the chairman has to deal with countless matters every day, but he can still remember them, these small individuals; how can they not be thrilled?

  It's like a national leader who can clearly remember the ordinary old people he has met, those ordinary old people must be proud of it.

  "Ah! Grandpa, I almost forgot to tell you. The good show should have already started. Hopefully we haven't missed the most exciting part. Come on, grandpa. Let's go watch a great show."

  Du Xiangying heard Du Lao's words and suddenly remembered that there was another good show, so she hurriedly shouted and pulled Du Lao's arm to run towards the financial department's operating room.

  "Hey, girl, stop pulling me! Can't I go myself?" Du Lao was being pulled by Du Xiaoqing with all her might, unable to break free. Helpless, he could only agree to come along.
