âYou suddenly make me feel so scaredâŠâ Mu Beihan looked at them, suddenly feeling uneasy. It seemed like they would all start their own businesses. If she didnât do the same, she would fall behind and distance herself from them.
Song Xinyue also felt the same, but her family was too poor to allow her to start a business!
If she succeeded, it would be great, but what if she failed?
...
She didnât have the capital to take that risk.
âWhether you start a business or not, our friendship wonât be affected. Of course, thatâs just on my side. For you, there may be some emotional distance. And realizing your own value doesnât necessarily mean starting a business. For example, for Beihan and Chenmeng, your major is law. If you study well and become a great lawyer in the future, and build a good reputation in society, you will still have a high status. No matter what profession you choose, it wonât be easy, but if you truly love what you do, youâll treat it with sincerity and have a greater chance to succeed. If you do something just for vanity⊠of course, vanity can also be a motive and can lead to success, but personally, I think passion is more important,â said Leng Xiaoyao.
She chose to start a business because she had the ability to do so. Otherwise, she wouldnât want to struggle here when she only had two years.
She was pleased that they were inspired to start a business, but it shouldnât be blind. After all, starting a business had risks.
If they were determined to do so, she would naturally support them. âIf you are determined to start a business and can do it with passion and dedication, I can work with you to figure out what suits you best, but I hope you wonât rush into it without careful consideration.â
An Chenmeng and Xiong Manxin were pondering whether they were just impulsive or really wanted to do it.
âTake your time to think about it. Donât rush and put pressure on yourself, or you might make the wrong decision,â said Leng Xiaoyao. Although doing things sometimes required impulse, many things still required careful consideration.
An Chenmeng and Xiong Manxin didnât bother to find an answer right away. They didnât have to come up with an answer today. They really couldnât rely on their impulse. They needed to think about it carefully.
They started playing the game and before they realized it, it was already afternoon.
Maid Tong started cooking, and Ning Muqing came with a lot of things.
âJust coming over is enough. Why bring so many things?â Leng Xiaoyao criticized her in a loving tone. She knew that this was inevitable etiquette, but Ning Muqing brought too much.
âVisiting someoneâs home requires bringing gifts. Besides, you did me a great favor!â Ning Muqing even felt that these gifts werenât enough.
âOh, by the way, whatâs the result with Wang Pengyu?â Leng Xiaoyao asked with concern. She saw that Ning Muqingâs forehead was slightly darkened and thought of Wang Pengyu. She wondered if Ning Muqingâs upcoming trouble was related to him.
âLin Xiaoyou was fired directly. She came to see me afterwards. After I told her about the situation, she didnât come to see me again. Wang Pengyu came to the company several times to confront me and threatened me. He said that if I didnât accept him again, he would pay someone to punish me. I was scared, so now I go home with my brother after work every day.â Ning Muqing said with a worried look. She was really scared of Wang Pengyu.
Even if she called the police, Wang Pengyu hadnât done anything yet and no one else heard his threat to her. She also didnât record it as evidence because she didnât expect him to threaten her.
Leng Xiaoyao frowned. She felt that if something bad happened to Ning Muqing, Ning Guanjie wouldnât be able to escape either.
âThat Wang Pengyu is really a terrible man! How could he go this far to bother you,â An Chenmeng said angrily.
âNot everyone has common sense. Terrible people easily go crazy when they fail to take advantage of others,â Xiong Manxin said, worried about Ning Muqing.
âThat man does seem like heâll go crazy when he canât take advantage of others,â Leng Xiaoyao said.
âThen what should I do?â Ning Muqing was already afraid. When she heard what Leng Xiaoyao said, she became even more nervous.
Leng Xiaoyao took out two peace talismans from her bag and handed them to Ning Muqing. âIf you trust me, wear this close to your body. Donât let it touch water. Take it off and put it aside when you shower. Give the other one to your brother. Iâm not cursing you intentionally, but I feel that youâll be in danger these next few days. Itâs easy to offend people by saying this kind of thing, but Iâm only doing this because I consider you a friend.â
For some reason, Ning Muqing inexplicably believed in Leng Xiaoyao and didnât feel uncomfortable about what she said.
âI trust you.â Ning Muqing took the peace talismans and said, âXiaoyao, thank you.â
After wearing a talisman, Ning Muqing felt inexplicably relieved.
It was not only Ning Muqing, everyone there had one.
Leng Xiaoyao hadnât thought about giving talismans to Tang Xing and Tang Ning before. She only thought of it after they were abducted yesterday and decided to make a few more since she invited everyone over for a meal today. Even Maid Tong and Feng Dongcheng had one.
Talismans could only withstand big attacks. If someone was kidnapped and the kidnapper didnât harm the person, the Taoist magic figure wouldnât be effective.
Therefore, when Mu Yufan was kidnapped, the talisman was useless because Brother Bao didnât even hit Mu Yufan, let alone hurt him.
An Chenmeng already had one, so she didnât need another, but Leng Xiaoyao gave one to Mu Beihan, Xiong Manxin, and Song Xinyue.
They were skeptical about the effectiveness of the talismans, but they didnât raise any objections nor did they refuse.
âWhy didnât Chenmeng get one?â Xiong Manxin asked when she saw that Leng Xiaoyao didnât give An Chenmeng one, thinking that Leng Xiaoyao forgot.
âBecause I already have one!â An Chenmeng proudly said. They didnât believe in the effectiveness of the talismans, but she did! After all, she had seen it work several times!
When Xiong Manxin heard that An Chenmeng already had one, she looked at Leng Xiaoyao grumpily and complained. âBoss, why does An Chenmeng get one when sheâs a newcomer, but I only get one now after following you for so many years? Is An Chenmeng more important than me?â
She wasnât really angry, but she was really upset and jealous.
Leng Xiaoyao immediately went over to appease her. âItâs because something happened to Chenmeng last time, so I gave it to her. Then I forgot about everyone else. It was only because someone in the company and Tang Ning almost got into trouble these past few days that I remembered about the talismans.â
In fact, it was Shen Xinyue who begged for it, so she forgot to give some to Xiong Manxin and the others afterwards.
That reduced Xiong Manxinâs annoyance a little, but it wasnât completely gone. âHumph! Iâm still jealous. You have to compensate me.â
âWhat compensation do you want?â Leng Xiaoyao chuckled and asked.
