Lu Jingyao has not found a suitable professional manager, so he can only be busy for a while and rest for a while, and cannot be with Xu Youyou all the time.

Of course, Xu Youyou had never asked him to do so. Xu Youyou had too many secrets and too many things she needed to deal with on her own. It would be much more convenient for her to lead the team alone.

But in a foreign land, anyone would be touched when their lover travels all night because he is worried about her.

"I'm fine, I'm just not used to my friends leaving..." Xu Youyou said softly.

Lu Jingyao didn't think much about it when he heard this. He had heard Xu Youyou talk about Mr. Wu before, and knew that although Xu Youyou and the old man had only known each other for a short time, they had a close friendship. He just thought that Xu Youyou was lamenting the old man's departure.

He gently stroked Xu Youyou's hair and said, "We can come to visit him in the future. If you still feel bad, we can stay here for a while."

Xu Youyou shook her head and said, "Let's go back. I miss home."

Even Lu Jingyao's arrival did not change Xu Youyou's determination, and a large group of people chose to drive back to Shanghai.

Xu Youyou did not explain why she had to drive back, nor did she try to conceal her actions. She did not pretend to appreciate the scenery along the way. She basically slept in the car every day.

After the car finally arrived in Shanghai after a long journey, Xu Youyou gave everyone around her a day off, including her two assistants and all the bodyguards.

Although she completed the task relatively easily, she felt extremely tired in her heart. She did not leave her residence in Shanghai for five consecutive days.

Lu Jingyao felt that she would get sick if she stayed so bored, so he didn't persuade her to go out. He could only ask the cashiers from major luxury stores to come to her house for service.

Xu Youyou knew Lu Jingyao's worries, so she forced herself to cheer up and choose the products she liked.

By the sixth day, Xu Youyou seemed to have completely eliminated the fatigue brought by the journey, and she called back to the orphanage.

"Auntie, the children are on summer vacation now. I want to invite them to come to Shanghai for a summer trip." Xu Youyou said with a smile.

The director immediately said, "Youyou, I know you mean well, but if you let these children experience the prosperity and beauty of the big city, I'm afraid they won't want to come back, nor will they be willing to accept the difficult conditions in their hometown. These children already have a lower starting point than the average person, so they need to learn to be frugal."

Xu Youyou glanced at her bank account. After the two doubling cards given by the system, not to mention her company's market value or other assets, the balance in her bank card alone was as high as 700 billion.

With such a huge number, it can be said that the speed at which she spends money cannot keep up with the speed at which money makes money.

"Director, I don't think thriftiness and the pursuit of a better life conflict. I hope these children won't feel inferior because they were born in an orphanage, and won't be afraid to pursue what they want. I think after experiencing the prosperity of a big city, they might have a clearer idea of ​​what they want. I hope these children will grow up to have healthy personalities."

Xu Youyou's words finally wavered the dean.

Xu Youyou still remembers the first time she came to Shanghai. It was because she came here to attend university. She was born in an orphanage and was funded by the government to study. Her monthly living expenses were limited, and she had to rely on part-time jobs to supplement her living expenses in Shanghai, where prices were staggering.

Xu Youyou could have returned to her hometown after graduating from university, but she stayed. There are limited job opportunities and low wages in her hometown. She understands better than anyone that staying in a big city may be difficult, but there are more opportunities here.

Sometimes she thought that if the Gu family had not recognized her in her previous life, she might have become a member of the diligent 996 army, and might never have been able to buy her own house in Shanghai, but at least she would not end up buried in the snow with no one to collect her body.

Xu Youyou took Liu Xiangyi to enthusiastically plan a travel guide for the children to Shanghai. It was rare for Lu Jingyao to see Xu Youyou interested in anything.

"The science and technology museum under our company cooperates with primary and secondary schools every year. Children are welcome to visit. Maybe this visit will inspire a few scientists in the future." Lu Jingyao said with a smile.

Xu Youyou also visited the Science and Technology Museum of Lu Jingyao's company. The futuristic sense of the intersection of technology and life was indeed impressive. She added the Science and Technology Museum to the children's itinerary without any hesitation.

With the intention of making up for her own childhood, she planned this summer study tour, which received unprecedented recognition from the children.

We played in Shanghai for five days, and every day was packed with activities. The children were all excited every day. Until the end of the trip and when we were about to leave Shanghai, almost every child had a look of reluctance on their face.

"I want to live in Disneyland every day!"

"I love the Science and Technology Museum! I want to work there in the future!"

"I love Shanghai. I want to stay here like Sister Youyou!"

Listening to the children's chatter, Xu Youyou's face was always smiling.

Xu Youyou didn't expect that this compensation for herself would be so effective.

Just two days after the children returned to their hometown, the director's mother called again.

"Youyou, I really don't know what kind of magic you have. The kids used to say they couldn't concentrate on studying, and at worst, they'd go to a vocational school and learn a trade to make a living. Now, they're all forcing themselves to study hard, saying they want to follow your example and get into a prestigious university and work for a big company."

Listening to the director's mother's words, Xu Youyou knew that the children's positive and motivated attitude might not last long.

But what if?

If a few of the hundreds of children can continue to persevere and make progress because of the positive feedback from their learning progress, then her hard work in arranging this event will not be in vain.

At first, Xu Youyou was worried that the Red Dragon King's men would retaliate. In the second month after she returned to Shanghai, Lu Jingyao brought her a piece of news.

"The Red Dragon King has been missing for a month. He's been running a shady business, and his men didn't dare to call the police. They can't get in touch with the people accompanying the Red Dragon King. The master is also in jail and sentenced to death. So everyone in the underworld speculates that the Red Dragon King is most likely dead."

"They're all gangsters. They wouldn't just sit there and watch a piece of fat meat dangling in front of them and not take it. They'd just swallow up the Red Dragon King's original assets."

Xu Youyou knew that the Red Dragon King was dead, and she was a little confused: "Won't the Red Dragon King's men seek revenge?"

Lu Jingyao said, "This group of people originally came together for profit, but now they're scattered. They're not clean themselves up, and they can barely take care of themselves, so how can they care about avenging their master?"

Xu Youyou breathed a sigh of relief when she heard that.

She thought the matter was finally over, but unexpectedly Lu Jingyao said, "Gu Xueying wants to see you."
