Li Ya patiently explained, "Wu Shunkun, you have your own career to attend to!"
"I have my own career to attend to as well. No matter what, the ultimate goal of the careers we pursue is for this family!"
"Right now, I truly hope you can give me more understanding and less misunderstanding!"
"Only then will our family's life get better and better!"
"If we can't understand each other, and continue to scheme against each other like this!"
"Our marital relationship might be difficult to maintain any longer!"
Wu Shunkun responded with earnestness, "Li Ya, I understand all the principles you're talking about!"
"But I also hope you can think more about our family!"
"Among the many leaders at Hongxing Steel Rolling Plant, how many male leaders are assigned female secretaries?"
"Throughout the entire factory, it's probably only Liu Kai Xuan!"
"Over the years, do you know how much pressure I've carried for our family?"
"Now you want to travel with a male leader for several days?"
"Have you considered how others would perceive me if this matter got out?"
Wu Shunkun insisted on disagreeing with Li Ya taking this trip. If Li Ya insisted further, it would surely lead to a major incident.
Ultimately, after careful consideration, Li Ya abandoned her insistence.
...
At noon that day, Li Ya returned to the company and told Liu Kai Xuan about her family situation.
Liu Kai Xuan replied with a chuckle, "It's alright, Secretary Li Ya, you can temporarily..."
"Today, you should first go to the agricultural trade company to find Liu Yu Qian and familiarize yourself with the business there!"
"For this trip, I'll have Xiao Long accompany me instead!"
"I should have considered this earlier. It's indeed not appropriate for a woman like you to travel with me!"
"No!"
Li Ya quickly explained, "Boss, this really isn't your fault!"
"If anyone is to blame, it's my husband for being so unreasonable!"
"I see it's getting late, I'll go to the agricultural trade company right away!"
"Go ahead!"
After receiving Liu Kai Xuan's permission, Li Ya immediately rode her bicycle to the agricultural trade market.
What Liu Kai Xuan didn't expect was that after Li Ya went to the agricultural trade company, Liu Yu Qian rushed back from the company.
Upon arriving at Meng Hu Industrial Company, Liu Yu Qian immediately proposed her idea.
"Boss, Li Ya's family doesn't agree to her traveling with you!"
"This isn't surprising, their family's mindset is backward, it's understandable they can't grasp it!"
"However, my family is much more open-minded in this regard!"
"I can travel with you, let me be your secretary!"
Liu Kai Xuan said sternly, "Liu Yu Qian, don't stir up trouble!"
"Your situation is essentially the same as Li Ya's!"
"It's not appropriate for you to be by my side when I travel out of town!"
"If this causes inconvenience to your family life, that would be bad!"
"What are you afraid of?" Liu Yu Qian replied dismissively, "I can make my own decisions!"
"Just let me go with you with confidence, I guarantee nothing will go wrong!"
In fact, Liu Yu Long had other tasks to perform.
Liu Kai Xuan had planned to take Li Ya on this trip, but it ended up having some issues.
If Liu Kai Xuan now refused to take Liu Yu Qian along, then only Liu Kai Xuan would be traveling alone.
With Liu Kai Xuan's capabilities, even traveling alone, he could complete the objective of this trip.
However, the efficiency of one person working alone was too slow.
For Liu Kai Xuan now, time was money.
Since Liu Yu Qian was so eager to accompany him on the trip, he might as well take her along.
One more person could provide more strength.
Moreover, Liu Yu Qian was quite capable, definitely not just someone to fill a headcount.
"Alright, in that case, you'll travel with me this time!"
After some thought, Liu Kai Xuan nodded and agreed to the matter.
...
Courtyard.
At dusk, Zhao Tianhai, Jiang Aiying, Zhao Dajun, and Chen Yue arrived at Liu Kai Xuan's home.
Their family had come to continue negotiations for the transfer of the restaurant.
Liu Kai Xuan was not home, so Zhao Feiyan received them.
Zhao Tianhai spoke first, "Feiyan, your brother's restaurant is really having a hard time staying afloat!"
"The only solution now is for you to buy their restaurant with your money, then change the signboard and reopen!"
"Their location is quite good, with a large flow of people!"
"If you take it over and manage it well, you'll surely make a lot of money!"
"Yes!"
Jiang Aiying chimed in, "Feiyan, your business is growing bigger and bigger, please help your brother and them!"
"Right now, we really don't have any other better options!"
Zhao Feiyan said with a serious expression, "Dad, I've considered the plan you mentioned!"
"But I don't think your plan will work at all!"
"The core problem of Yue Liang Restaurant is its damaged reputation!"
"Once the reputation is ruined, it can't simply be solved by changing the name!"
"Even if I were to reopen the restaurant at the original site, it would be at least a year or so later!"
"Their restaurant's lease is about to expire!"
"If I take over the restaurant, I won't be able to do business for the next year, and I'll still have to pay rent for nothing!"
"This is definitely not a wise move!"
Zhao Dajun became impatient, "Zhao Feiyan, why are you so petty?"
"Everyone knows that Liu Kai Xuan is making a lot of money now!"
"He's made so much money, what's wrong with him helping our family a bit?"
"We are all family, we should help each other!"
Zhao Feiyan said solemnly, "It's right for family members to help each other!"
"But now, Yue Liang Restaurant has completely collapsed, and we'll only lose money if we buy it!"
"Our family isn't well-off either, why would I force myself to do something that I know will lose money?"
"I'd be playing a joke with Kai Xuan's money!"
Zhao Dajun became even more anxious, "Zhao Feiyan, your problems are really becoming more and more serious!"
"Our family's restaurant is only selling to you for a few thousand yuan!"
"You'll still have to spend money to open a new store!"
