Surprise! The wife of a top star is actually a Nobel Prize winner
Chapter 36 Calling Brother
After all, he was the idol that he had been thinking about until the end of his life in his previous life. Now that he was working in the same office with him, the excitement did not pass so quickly.
However, as they spent more time together, and with the cheerful and humorous Li Sheng, she began to feel less awe towards Li Xiao than she did at the beginning, when she could only admire him from afar and not desecrate him.
Another week later, they completed a small case, a case that Cen Cheng participated in for the first time, so they made an appointment to have a small gathering at dinner time on Friday.
During dinner, Li Xiao, tricked by Li Sheng, accidentally drank a glass of white wine. Taking advantage of the intoxication, Li Xiao asked a question that had been bothering him for a long time: "Chengcheng, you've been in the company for so long, and you always call everyone else "Brother," but why do you only call me by my first name? This isn't fair."
Among so many colleagues, why do they only call Li Xiao by his full name and can't even call him "Brother"?
One reason was that her past-life self was older than Li Xiao. Cen Cheng could interact with other colleagues she didn't know from her past life naturally, acting as her current 18-year-old self, calling them "brother" with ease. But Li Xiao, who indirectly accompanied her past-life self through her final days, was always a reminder of her past life self and the Li Xiao she'd seen in her past-life videos. Comparing him to the person in front of her, she felt like he was just a younger brother, and the word "brother" was difficult to utter.
Secondly, she still held an idol aura in Li Xiao's heart. Online fans often say: "Get closer to your idol's work, but stay away from their lives," and Cen Cheng deeply agrees. But she, momentarily unable to control herself, impulsively entered her idol's life. She felt she had to control herself and not get any closer, so she created a barrier between herself and him, wanting to stay on this side of the line. Calling him "brother" seemed too intimate, and she resisted.
But what he didn't expect was that Li Xiao was so sensitive that he had already noticed the abnormality. He had no intention of staying at the other end of the line and wanted to pull the line while he was drunk.
Li Sheng on the side cheered: "Why? Of course it's because I'm not familiar with you."
"Get lost!" Li Xiao pushed the troublemaker Li Sheng away, pulled Cen Chengte and said seriously, "Chengcheng, you either call me Brother Li, or Brother Xiao, or if that doesn't work, just call me Little Brother. Yes, just call me Little Brother. Don't call me Li Xiao anymore!"
Forget it. Since Li Xiao had already asked for this, Cen Cheng felt that there was no point in being so hypocritical. It wasn't his intention to cause trouble for Li Xiao.
So after knowing each other for a while, at Li Xiao's strong request even when he was drunk, Cen Cheng changed the way he addressed Li Xiao from "Li Xiao" to "Brother".
The origin of "Xiao Ge" was later explained to Cen Cheng by Li Sheng: "Li Xiao is the youngest of the four people in our dormitory, but he has to be the older brother. It just so happens that the character "Xiao" in his name sounds similar to the character "Xiao", so everyone calls him Xiao Ge."
Cen Cheng asked curiously, "Then why haven't I heard you call me that before?"
Li Sheng said confidently, "Just kidding, I'm the boss, okay? I don't spoil him. Not only me, but the others in our dormitory rarely call him that either. Usually, only those who are closer to him and younger than him call him that. As for you, you're a kid, so you won't feel any disadvantage if you call him 'little brother'!"
"Oh, okay." Cen Cheng said he was taught.
As Li Xiao left his comfort zone and entered the completely unfamiliar entertainment industry, no one ever called him "Brother" again without his permission.
From then on, "little brother" became Cen Cheng's exclusive name and she called him that for the rest of her life.
This is a story for later, so let’s not discuss it for now.
While Qian Cencheng was busy at work, Qian Xiangzhong, who was far away in Beijing, finally finished the important things at hand and had time to plan a trip to the Fog City to visit his little lady.
Uncle Qian had been worried about various things since they started traveling. If the inheritance left by the master and mistress was not a bit complicated and he had to deal with it personally, he would definitely go on the trip with the young lady.
If he were watching, he thought, the young lady would definitely not choose to find a job in the foggy city thousands of miles away from home. He would definitely persuade the young lady to return to Beijing to find a job.
Qian Qing: You're quite confident! Unfortunately, from what I learned from the author, it's fate, and it can't be changed.
Now that the inheritance issue had been completely resolved, all that was left was the young lady's final signature. Uncle Qian finally breathed a sigh of relief, packed his luggage, and prepared to fly to the foggy city to meet the young lady tomorrow afternoon.
This time when he went to the Fog City, Uncle Qian didn’t just go to visit Qian Cencheng.
Uncle Qian notified all the Qian family members who were related to the Qian family business and asked them to gather in Wudu to attend the Qian family family meeting and officially let Qian Cencheng inherit the Qian family business as the head of the family.
Because of the change in the head of the Qian family, the Qian family's business has also changed, so there are many things that need to be dealt with. Uncle Qian initially estimated that it would take one or two days to complete.
He scheduled the meeting for the weekend, according to what Qian Qing said, so as not to occupy the young lady's working time.
There was no other way. Now everything had to be done according to her schedule. If it wasn't something particularly important, Qian Qing wouldn't let anyone or anything else interrupt Qian Cencheng's hard-earned healing journey.
Yes, in Qian Qing's eyes, and even in the eyes of the Qian family, the family business was a trivial matter for Qian Cencheng. She had a more important mission as a member of the Qian family. Regarding the Qian family's business affairs, the head of the family had always only needed to know the outcome and grasp the general direction. Other specific matters had always been led by the Qian family steward.
When Uncle Qian started planning this family meeting, he had originally planned to have Qian Cencheng return to the capital and hold the meeting at his old house there, as that would be easier to arrange and safer. However, Qian Qing refused. Qian Qing persuaded Uncle Qian to change the venue to the Fog City and also asked Uncle Qian to try not to take up too much of Qian Cencheng's time.
Because if too many trivial matters were interspersed during the healing process, Qian Qing was afraid that accidents that they could not control would occur, and the road to healing would become longer.
For a genius like Qian Cencheng, time is as precious as gold. Qian Qing felt that he could not afford to waste it, and neither could the research institute.
Uncle Qian arrived in the Foggy City two days earlier than the rest of the Qian family. He had to arrange the venue and take care of the food and lodging for the Qian family members. Of course, most importantly, he missed his little lady.
Ever since the master brought 11-year-old Qian Cencheng back to his side to raise her, Uncle Qian has never left the little lady for so long, except for the two years when she went abroad for further studies.
After working overtime to arrange the important work, Uncle Qian couldn't wait to fly to the foggy city.
