There was a long silence in the car again.

Meng Hui realized something and hurriedly added, “It’s because the Chairman and CEO Shi trust me that I have the chance to work hard for the company. In the future, I will definitely perform well and not disappoint the chairman.”

“Dad.” Shi Man suddenly spoke up and said calmly, “I want Meng Hui to follow me to the branch company to train.”

Shi Zhong’s expression softened. This was what he wanted to mention. Now that she had taken the initiative to mention it, he had a way out. “Yes, I heard that you obtained that piece of land in the West District. Then I’ll hand the branch company in the West District to you. In the future, you’ll be in charge of that area.”

“Thank you, Dad.” That was what Shi Man meant. She was very optimistic about the undeveloped business in that district. It was very suitable for her to show off her capabilities.

It was rare for the father and daughter to hit it off. The stalemate in the car finally relaxed.

Meng Hui heaved a long sigh of relief. Her suspended heart was finally relieved.

When the car drove back to the Shi family, Shen Xian was busy cooking at home. The children were all here today, and Shi Zhong happened to be back from a business trip. She was very happy.

The door of the villa was suddenly pushed open from the outside, and cold snow poured in.

The brothers of the Shi family ran over from the living room to welcome them. “Dad, Big Brother, Sister, you’re back.”

The butler was so happy that he couldn’t close his mouth. He smiled and helped hang up their coats. He walked into the living room and instructed the servants to pour tea for them.

The originally empty house instantly became lively.

Shen Xian heard the commotion in the kitchen and ran out with a spatula.

Shi Zhong frowned in heartache and hurriedly walked over to s.n.a.t.c.h the spatula. “Why are you cooking personally again? Can’t you rest well? Don’t you know how to be tired?”

Shen Xian smiled sweetly and said, “I don’t have to do anything every day. I’m very free and not tired at all. Hurry up and go to the living room to sit and talk to the children. I’ll be done soon.”

Shi Zhong immediately rolled up his sleeves and said, “Let me do it. Go sit in the living room.”

“No need, no need.” Shen Xian pushed him back to the living room and called out to Shi Ke, “Look after your father. Don’t let him enter the kitchen! Today is my time to show off. No one can interfere!”

Shi Zhong shook his head helplessly. “Alright, alright, alright. I’ll listen to you. Then make less. Just let the chef and the others cook the rest.”

“Don’t worry about it. Sit down.” Shen Xian was still stewing the pork ribs in the pot, so she hurriedly ran back to the kitchen and continued to work happily.

Shi Zhong sat back on the sofa and took a sip of hot tea, but his eyes glanced in the direction of the kitchen from time to time.

Shi Ke looked at his father in amus.e.m.e.nt and turned his head to talk to Shi Yu.

Shi He liked to listen to his two brothers chat the most. He munched on melon seeds and listened with interest. From time to time, he would interrupt.

The sound of the brothers chatting and laughing immediately sounded in the living room. Shi Zhong listened quietly and felt happy. Occasionally, he would interrupt and the atmosphere gradually warmed up.

Only Shi Mu, who usually liked to jump up and down, was quiet.

Shi Zhong sensed something amiss and looked at the butler sternly, silently asking what was wrong with Shi Mu recently.

The butler shook his head slightly, indicating that he didn’t know what was wrong with Fourth Young Master.

Shi Zhong’s expression darkened as he said in a deep voice, “Shi Mu, everyone is busy with their work this holiday. Tell me, what have you done?”

Shi Zhong asked what everyone wanted to ask. The living room fell into a dead silence. Countless pairs of eyes stared at Shi Mu, clearly curious about the reason why he had changed so much recently.

Shi Mu pursed his thin lips hesitantly and stammered for a long time.

A layer of anger immediately appeared on Shi Zhong’s face. Just as he was about to flare up, Shi Man suddenly explained, “Fourth Brother is helping me. I have a plan that can gain greater benefits for the company, but I can’t say it yet. Fourth Brother is also keeping it a secret for me.”

Shi Mu looked up in shock. Realizing that everyone’s attention had not been completely diverted, he quickly put away his surprise and lowered his head again.

“What is it that you can’t even tell me?” A trace of dissatisfaction flashed across Shi Zhong’s eyes.

Shi Man was not afraid of him being angry at all. She shook her head calmly and said, “No, just treat it as a surprise for you. After this is done, you will all know.”

Shi Ke clearly felt the pressure around his father lower again and hurriedly tried to smooth things over. “Sister has done very well these few times. Dad, don’t worry, and let her do it.”

Shi Yu knew his sister’s personality the best. She would not say anything she did not want to say no matter how hard one interrogated her. If the stalemate continued, it would affect the relationship between father and daughter. He also persuaded, “That’s right, Dad. Sister can take charge now. Just treat it as a test for her.”

Shi He nodded in agreement. “That’s right, that’s right. Sister is very powerful now. Dad, didn’t you often say that you want us to learn to be independent? Let Sister do whatever she wants. If the results don’t satisfy you, you can just guide her!”

Shi Zhong snorted and rolled his eyes at them. His tone was reproachful but doting.. “You guys love to spoil her the most!”
