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

The second day was Saturday, and Luo Yanran had a rare weekend off, lingering in bed at home.

Xie Xiao didn't have to go to work either.

But didn't he have a company of his own?

Qi Yan had been making a fuss for a long time, and Xie Xiao was planning to check on it today.

The main reason was to follow up on the charity livestreaming idea they'd been considering.

Charity is a sensitive topic, so even the usually jesting Qi Yan didn't immediately agree.

He had said they needed to discuss it seriously.

So Xie Xiao had to get up early for a meeting.

When he got up, Luo Yanran was still in bed, just reaching out her hand to feel around, and squeezed Xie Xiao's hand as a way to say good morning.

Xie Xiao could tell she was really sleepy and kissed her face a few times.

Finally, he kissed those slightly swollen red lips.

Luo Yanran smelled the fresh scent of him after washing up and remembered she hadn't freshened up yet; she pushed his face away, "Stop kissing me, I haven't brushed my teeth yet."

Xie Xiao laughed a bit, "What does that matter? Alright, I'll stop bothering you. I'm heading out now, remember to have breakfast when you get up."

Luo Yanran mumbled a few indistinct replies.

She clearly wasn't paying attention, making Xie Xiao suspect she hadn't even heard him.

But he guessed she wouldn't be able to get up in the morning either.

Xie Xiao kissed her once more with a chuckle before turning around to leave.

Although Luo Yanran was very sleepy, she tried hard to open her eyes, then watched Xie Xiao's figure exit the bedroom.

Yeah, she had wanted to see him off, but she was too sleepy.

She'd look for him after waking up...

Before leaving the house, Xie Xiao had still stuck several post-it notes around; there were quite a few on the refrigerator door.

Anyway, he was sure that without him at home, she'd definitely sneak some ice cream; he had a good grasp of her habits.

When Xie Xiao arrived at the company, Qi Yan was already there, along with the head of their legal department and the heads of various other departments.

Xie Xiao said somewhat embarrassedly, "Sorry for being late."

Qi Yan replied, "No, wasn't it scheduled for nine-thirty? You're just on time."

He cut straight to the point, "Let's start the meeting so we can finish early and leave early..."

...

The meeting went on for more than two hours.

In the end, they didn't come to a conclusion.

A charity livestream was always a sensitive and challenging endeavor.

If Xie Xiao and his team went through with it, it would indeed be a great publicity stunt.

But the more eyes on you, the more there are waiting for you to slip, which can make it a thankless task.

So, currently, opinions were split halfway.

They couldn't reach a decision right away.

In the end, it was Qi Yan who, tired of the bickering, called for a pause.

He sighed, "I never thought our little company would see a day of argument."

The previously tense parties were instantly lightened up by his remark.

Xie Xiao laughed on the side, "President Qi, our company isn't so small anymore."

It was indeed the case. They had ventured into livestreaming earlier, and Qi Yan had truly dedicated all his efforts to this venture.

With the covert support from his family as well, their livestreaming company really wasn't small now.

At least many of the popular top streamers were under Qi Yan's company name.

However, Qi Yan believed that it was all thanks to Xie Xiao's discerning eye in selecting streamers and the direction of operations that they were doing so well.

Xie Xiao just smiled at this, for after all, he was someone who had been reborn, and a small Golden Finger he did have.

The direction of the anchors' character operations and content at the beginning were all arranged by Xie Xiao.

Basically, everyone he managed had successfully reached the position of top-tier anchors.

So, Qi Yan always joked that he was suited to be a celebrity agent, the kind who could make anyone popular.

But Xie Xiao knew that he just had a small Golden Finger.

By now, the advantage of this reborn Golden Finger was almost gone.

After all, he had not lived past 25 or 26 in his previous life.

However, the operations he set up before were enough to secure their livestreaming company's standing at the top.

Thus, even though Xie Xiao rarely came to the company, everyone still dared not neglect him.

That was also the reason why Qi Yan refused to let him go, even though Xie Xiao said he wanted to sell his shares to Qi Yan at a low price.

In the end, the meeting didn't produce any results, and everyone dispersed.

Qi Yan followed Xie Xiao back to his office, still complaining, "Your office is going to get moldy if you keep not coming to work."

Xie Xiao sighed, "You know I'm swamped with work, and besides, the company has you. I'm at ease."

Thinking of the dark circles under the eyes of the man before him, all because of his effort to marry a woman, Qi Yan couldn't help but feel that it wasn't easy.

He sighed involuntarily, "Aren't you pushing yourself too hard? And yet you're still worried about your public welfare livestream."

Xie Xiao just laughed, "Worried? Of course, it's still my company. How could I really not care?"

Xie Xiao's expression became a bit more serious, "Qi Yan, I've been thinking about whether or not to do this public welfare livestream, and how to do it. What are your true thoughts?"

Uncertainty appeared on Qi Yan's face; actually, he was leaning towards not doing it.

Originally, it was the kind of thing that could easily stir up trouble, an unrewarding task.

And their company was just stabilizing its development, already far ahead of their peers.

Playing it safe was definitely not going to be a problem.

But getting involved in charity and public welfare work really could lead to a debacle.

It's too easy for others to smear your name on the internet.

Qi Yan looked at Xie Xiao, sighed, and finally voiced his concerns, "I'm just worried..."

Xie Xiao did not show any impatience and nodded after listening seriously, "You're right, that is indeed what we're most afraid of now."

"So, have you given up?" Qi Yan asked back.

To his surprise, Xie Xiao just smiled and shook his head, "Of course not."

"I just knew it." Qi Yan sighed, "Then just spit it out, what do you want to do?"

Xie Xiao poured him a glass of water, "What I want to do still requires General Manager Qi's support."

Qi Yan rolled his eyes, "We are grasshoppers on the same rope; what can I do? Just say it."

Xie Xiao became a bit more subdued and spoke earnestly, "Our company has developed till now and looks very stable, right? But Qi Yan, don't you think it's stabilizing too early?"

If you stabilize now and stay put, others will not.

The internet is so fickle that even Xie Xiao could not control the trends there.

"We can't control it, but there are plenty of people who can," Xie Xiao tilted his chin up, pointing in a certain direction.

Qi Yan was startled, then his eyes widened, "Are you talking about Golden Finger?"

Xie Xiao nodded, "I've thought a lot these days, about how to do charity and public welfare without criticism? It's by partnering with Golden Finger."

Xie Xiao looked at Qi Yan, who was deep in thought. He was aware of the Qi family's influence here; otherwise, he wouldn't have dared to entertain such bold ideas.

"Qi Yan, if we want to stand tall indefinitely, we cannot be limited to the present. Nobody is doing this right now, but eventually, someone will," Xie Xiao's voice was low, "But if we really want to do it, we are not enough; however, the Qi family can."

Qi Yan raised his head to look at Xie Xiao, who was sitting across from him, smiling calmly and confidently.

This was when Qi Yan finally understood what his father had said during their conversation, "There are not many among your peers who are more outstanding than you, Xie Xiao is one."

At that moment, he was indeed convinced.
