The two sat there in the living room, looking at each other in silence.

Ugh.

Now one of them is unreachable, and the other seems to be in a bad mood. They are both outsiders, so no matter how hard they try, it's useless.

Are we just going to sit here like this?

Tang Min had little experience with matters of the heart and could only mutter to herself.

"I'll go see Tengfei again when I have time. You should spend more time with Ji Yu."

Zeng Yunchen held Tang Min's hand and gently comforted her.

Minmin and Ji Yu had only known each other for a short time, yet she was so considerate of him, which made him have a different opinion of Tang Min.

"But Ji Yu has to let me go with her. Judging from her expression, it looks like she's about to switch into workaholic mode."

Zeng Yunchen's words did not put Tang Min at ease; instead, she hung her head even lower, looking dejected.

Ji Yu was originally a person who valued his work extremely much. When such a person encounters unexpected changes, he will only devote even more time to his work.

"Once this matter concerning my second uncle is settled, I will reduce her workload."

"Oh no, don't be like that. Maybe work can actually relieve her psychological stress."

Tang Min quickly stopped Zeng Yunchen. She didn't know Ji Yu, but she thought that a career woman wouldn't be happy for her superior to give her special attention because of her love life.

"Okay, listen to you"

Ji Yu quickly changed his clothes and came out of the bedroom, holding a stack of documents in his hand.

Snapped.

"Mr. Zeng, this is the content we'll be discussing this afternoon. Please take a look."

Zeng Yunchen looked at the scattered documents on the table, then looked up at Ji Yu. He had only just finished talking to her, and she had already organized so much stuff!

"Ji Yu, when did you do this? You're amazing!"

Tang Min stared at Ji Yu with an adoring look.

"I did this in my spare time recently. When Mr. Zeng mentioned that he was putting Li Ping's company in my management, I subconsciously looked up some relevant information."

Ji Yu replied calmly, while selecting a few important documents from the files and placing them in front of Zeng Yunchen.

Upon hearing this, Tang Min's mind raced.

Cheng Xue said she wanted to be the next head of the Zeng family, and now she asks Ji Yu for help whenever she doesn't understand something.

From this perspective, Ji Yu could definitely become Xue Zheng's behind-the-scenes teacher.

Thinking about it, Tang Min's eyes lit up. In her eyes, Ji Yu was already a super goddess radiating light.

But how can we convince Ji Yu to formally teach Cheng Xue?

Tang Min frowned. This was indeed a problem. Ji Yu currently held a position at Zeng's company and was very busy with work. It was clearly unrealistic to expect her to become a full-time teacher.

However, based on her interactions with Cheng Xue over this period of time, Cheng Xue is not a very proactive child. But in the airport waiting room, Cheng Xue actually took the initiative to ask Ji Yu questions.

This is unprecedented, which shows that Ji Yu is very capable with Cheng Xue, and that the children can understand what he says.

"Minmin? Minmin?"

Tang Min was concentrating on how to persuade Ji Yu when her leg was gently patted. When she looked up, Zeng Yunchen and Ji Yu were both looking at her with confusion.

"What are you thinking about? You're so focused. I called you several times, but you didn't answer."

Zeng Yunchen glanced at the document in his hand and asked silently.

Tang Min would also be attending the afternoon negotiations, and Zeng Yunchen thought she should familiarize herself with the documents beforehand. He turned his head and saw her staring at Ji Yu with shining eyes, her mind seemingly preoccupied with something.

"Oh, nothing. Where were you guys talking about?"

Tang Min hadn't fully figured out how to make Ji Yu act as Teacher Xue, so she couldn't talk about it yet. She could only change the subject and casually pick up the documents on the table as if nothing was wrong.

"We were just talking about..."

Ji Yu was about to speak when she hesitated and glanced at Zeng Yunchen. She wasn't sure how much of a role Zeng wanted Tang Min to play.

"It's okay, go ahead and tell me, so she won't be unaware of anything while we're chatting this afternoon."

Seeing that Zeng Yunchen had spoken, Ji Yu finally felt relieved and told Tang Min about the things she needed to do that afternoon.

Tang Min had never received such a high density of information before, and as she listened, she began to feel drowsy.

The speed was comparable to a teacher lecturing or reading a book before bed.

Zeng Yunchen pulled a blanket over Tang Min and draped it over her shoulders, then raised his hand to stop Ji Yu.

"To put it simply, let's avoid using so much technical jargon."

Tang Min, wrapped in a blanket, mumbled a response, still half asleep.

She swore she really listened attentively, but having never dealt with business matters before, she only understood bits and pieces of what Ji Yu was saying.

Many words kept popping out of Ji Yu's mouth as she was still trying to understand them.

"Uh, okay, Mr. Zeng."

Ji Yu was stunned when Zeng Yunchen made a gesture. He thought he had said something wrong. When he saw what President Zeng said, he looked at Tang Min with guilt.

It was her fault; she didn't consider Tang Min's feelings.

In just a moment, Ji Yu composed himself, sat up straight, and looked back and forth between Zeng Yunchen and Tang Min with a determined gaze.

"It all boils down to one principle: we don't provoke trouble, but we're not afraid of it either. We hope Second Uncle will know when to stop, and that while we each develop peacefully, we can explore ways to cooperate."

"Cooperation? I heard your businesses are basically the same, so how can we cooperate?"

This time, Tang Min understood, but not completely.

In her view, Zeng Yunchen's company and his second uncle's company had highly overlapping businesses. From her perspective, she only saw competition and not any points of cooperation.

"Differentiation"

Zeng Yunchen answered Tang Min's question calmly.

"My second uncle has been running his business outside for so many years. Although the products are highly overlapping, he makes better products than I do."

"We can negotiate that neither party will compete with the other's main products."

"In other words, if you both have products A and B, and your company sells product A well while his company sells product B well, after negotiation, you will no longer participate in the development, research, and investment of product B, and in return, he will no longer participate in product A. This ensures the other party's market share."

Tang Min nodded as she analyzed the situation.

She wasn't sure if what she said was right, and she stumbled over her words, constantly looking at Zeng Yunchen until he saw approval in his eyes.

"Minmin is so smart!"

Zeng Yunchen quietly moved next to Tang Min and stroked her head.

Tang Min impatiently waved her hand away from Zeng Yunchen's.

"Would he agree?"

Tang Min had never met Zeng Yunchen's second uncle, but from snippets of conversation, she could tell that he was decisive and ruthless.

Otherwise, they wouldn't have been fighting with the Zeng family of Yongcheng for so many years.

Zeng Yunchen shook his head; he wasn't sure either.

But this was the biggest concession he had made.

This is equivalent to him giving up the product that was most competitive with his second uncle.
