Proud senior schoolgirl was tender and sweet, we fell in love

Luo Yanran was stunned for a moment before looking at Xie Xiao, then turning to her own dad, "Why?"

Xie Xiao thought to himself that his uncle indeed had a very clear goal.

As expected, Luo Ming said, "I asked Xie Xiao to intern at our company, and he has agreed."

Luo Yanran was somewhat surprised, because Xie Xiao already had his own company, and even when he wasn't at his company, Xie Xiao was busy at home and certainly not lying around all day.

He would read a lot of investment materials.

Moreover, as far as Luo Yanran knew, these investments were bringing him a substantial income.

It's no exaggeration, at least now Xie Xiao could afford to buy a house in City B, of course not in full.

But for his age, being independent from his family was already quite impressive.

This Xie Xiao, going to her father's company for an internship?

Why?

But after thinking carefully, she realized it was because of her.

It had been less than two months since the news of Xie Xiao's proposal reached her family, and her dad had already come over.

It was very obvious.

Luo Yanran even felt that it was probably because her father had been too busy recently; otherwise, he would have come over even sooner.

It could only be said that she understood Luo Ming very well.

Seeing Luo Yanran looking bewildered, Luo Ming explained, "Our division here has always lacked someone with decision-making power. I've stationed your Uncle Xu over here for over a year now, and he's been talking about wanting to go back every day. So I thought of letting Xie Xiao take over his position, but of course, only if he passes the assessment."

It was then Xie Xiao spoke up, "I've already promised your father. It just so happens to be a good opportunity for me to develop myself." Find your next adventure on empire

Xie Xiao, seeing Luo Yanran starting to frown, hastily spoke up, "I haven't discussed the details with your uncle yet, let's eat first. We won't talk about this during the meal."

Luo Yanran gave him a look but still said, "Okay."

In her opinion, she disapproved of this.

If it were something Xie Xiao wanted, there were quite a few companies he could enter.

But there was no need to enter her father's company.

He was doing this for her, wasn't he?

Xie Xiao did not seem to have any intention of interning at other companies before.

Ever since she chose law as her major, Luo Yanran knew that she would eventually have to face the issue of inheriting her father's company,

Over the years, she had seen quite a few excellent management teams, thinking that if it really came to it, she would let the management team take over.

After all, professional work should be left to professionals.

She had never thought of asking Xie Xiao to sacrifice his own career to help manage her family's company.

If Xie Xiao knew what she was thinking right now, he would probably call her a silly girl.

Xie Xiao never felt this was a sacrifice, and in the eyes of many people, it might even look like Xie Xiao had picked up a great deal.

After all, on the road already paved by predecessors, Xie Xiao just needed to walk a bit to reach heights many people couldn't achieve in their lifetime.

Although he might feel somewhat out of place due to his youth, it was not something he couldn't accept.

Xie Xiao also understood what Luo Ming meant, he was to get accustomed to it. That's why he started from this subsidiary.

Working behind Uncle Xu, watching and seeing if he would fit in.

If Xie Xiao eventually refused, Luo Ming would probably respect his decision.

The situation wasn't as grave or unacceptable as Luo Yanran had thought.

But it was still apparent that Luo Yanran's mood was somewhat low during the meal that followed.

After finishing the meal, she went to the bathroom.

Luo Ming then looked at Xie Xiao and asked, "Do you feel the same as Luoluo, thinking that I'm stifling your dreams?"

His voice carried a hint of helplessness, now he had roughly figured out his daughter's thoughts.

But oftentimes, the way boys think is somewhat different from girls' perspectives.

So Luo Ming wanted to see what Xie Xiao thought; if Xie Xiao shared the same opinion, then his own decision needed to be more cautious.

After all, he didn't want to be the villain in his child's heart.

Who knew Xie Xiao would just smile and say, "No, Uncle. What I see is the path you've paved for us, ready for us just to walk on it and it's all smooth sailing."

Luo Ming was taken aback, he had always known Xie Xiao to be a boy with his own ideas, and he admired him for that.

But hearing what he had said now, Luo Ming suddenly felt that there really was a reason why Xie Xiao had attracted his daughter for so many years.

He was a person who was transparent and open,

Luo Ming chuckled, "You kid, I really didn't misjudge you."

Xie Xiao also smiled openly, "Uncle, rest assured, I will talk it through with Ranran, she's just being a bit stubborn at the moment."

Luo Ming nodded, he knew Xie Xiao would probably handle it well.

So after the two of them sent Luo Ming back to the hotel, they drove home.

On the way home, Luo Yanran's sullen mood was still apparent.

Xie Xiao glanced at her a few times in the rearview mirror, but she didn't even notice.

After arriving at the residential complex, Xie Xiao parked the car in their rented space, his voice laced with a teasing tone, "If I were the car, I'd feel quite sad. You've sat in it so long today without a single compliment. Didn't we pick it out together? If you act like this, I'll think you don't like the car anymore."

Luo Yanran snapped out of it and quickly said, "Not at all, I still really like the car."

Xie Xiao leaned over to unbuckle her seat belt, "Really? I couldn't tell~"

Luo Yanran pouted, "Then in a few days when I finish this case, you can take me for a drive, and I'll shower it with compliments the whole way, okay?"

Xie Xiao pinched her pouted lips, "Alright, get out of the car now."

Luo Yanran obediently nodded and got out of the car.

As Xie Xiao opened the door, he was thinking that perhaps they should buy their own place.

After all, both the house and the parking space were rented, which felt somewhat unsatisfactory.

He had heard from Qi Yan that there was a new property development about to launch nearby, and if he asked Qi Yan for help, he could likely secure a unit...

While Xie Xiao was leading Luo Yanran to the elevator, he was still thinking about the house.

Luo Yanran looked at him several times, and he didn't even notice.

But Luo Yanran thought he was troubled because Luo Ming wanted him to join the company.

So Luo Yanran took the initiative to speak, "If you don't want to go to the company, I'll talk to Dad about it."

Xie Xiao came back to his senses and looked at her, "Huh? Why wouldn't I want to?"

Luo Yanran blinked, "Because I guess I wouldn't. You already have your own work to worry about, managing your company is already busy enough."

Xie Xiao watched the bright but anxious girl in front of him with a bit of amusement, "You're overthinking it. I'm not troubled at all. In comparison, your family is probably going to be the one to deal with more behind-the-back comments..."

After all, no matter how you look at it, Xie Xiao was still an outsider in the eyes of others, even if he and Luo Yanran were married in the future.

Many would think that if Uncle Luo handed over the management of the company to him,

Quite a few people would call him foolish. In this respect, the pressure Luo Ming faced was undoubtedly the greatest.

Luo Yanran had obviously thought of this too, her eyes dimming, "Is it because of me?"

If she had chosen according to her father's expectations, neither her father nor Xie Xiao would be having such a difficult time now, right?
