Chapter 51: Chapter 51: The Apex of Intelligence Chapter 51: Chapter 51: The Apex of Intelligence After she had finished her howork, she quickly made herself a cup of Spiritual Spring Water. As soon as she drank the Spiritual Spring Water, all her fatigue was instantly alleviated, and she felt re-energized.
But even though it was past ten o’clock, there was still noise coming from downstairs, so she gathered her backpack and followed the sound downstairs, only to find the Fan siblings quietly arguing. These two really picked a fight every ti they t, not wanting to waste a single mont.
However, this ti the content of their quarrel seed different; it wasn’t those pointless argunts anymore, but a targeted dispute.
She approached the couch and quietly asked, “What are you talking about? What’s this about not being allowed to go?”
Tianhua glanced at Tianyu and then said, “It’s your Brother Tianyu who insists on starting a business venture with so people, but I don’t think it’s reliable. You haven’t seen those guys, they don’t look like entrepreneur material; if he goes, he’ll definitely be swindled.”
“It’s still about that, huh? Brother Tianyu, I may not have t these people, but if Sister Tianhua is so against it, there must be a problem. You should really think this over more.”
“Zhenzhen, you know about this too?” Tianhua asked knowingly.
ngzhen nodded, “Yes, Brother Tianyu receives calls from these people every day, even Chenchen knows about it. But starting a business is not done this way, Brother Tianyu. You can start a business at any ti; opportunities aren’t just once. Let’s wait and see, we can talk about it next ti.”
Tianyu felt irritated. Everyone around him kept saying this was unreliable, yet they knew nothing about it. How could they be so sure they were right? “Zhenzhen, you’re still young, you don’t understand these things.”
But ngzhen didn’t see it that way. Having been reborn, she actually knew more, which is why she tried her best to persuade Tianyu not to get involved in this startup. Yet, she hadn’t been idle during the last week; even without her foreknowledge, she felt there was sothing fishy about this venture. It was just that Tianyu was too deeply involved to see clearly.
“Brother Tianyu, that’s not correct. I’m in my senior year of high school, and the intelligence I have now will be at its peak in my lifeti. It has nothing to do with age. I think it’s unreliable because I truly believe it is, not because I want to limit you,” ngzhen added, “While it’s true that entrepreneurial opportunities wait for no one, the validity of the opportunity matters too. So many people say it’s unreliable. Brother Tianyu, honestly, be clear before you proceed.”
“I just got several calls again. They’re signing the contract tomorrow; if I don’t go, it’ll all be over.” It was the first business venture in his life and to let it go like this seed like such a waste. Everyone had felt there was great potential during the initial discussions, and a bright future seed to be just in front of him; letting go was sothing he just couldn’t do.
“So the contract’s being signed tomorrow? Then Brother Tianyu, I won’t persuade you anymore. But as a man, your word must count. You already have no ti tomorrow, as you’ve promised to take us three out to play. How can you leave us ho alone because you have to sign a contract?” ngzhen said with feigned arrogance.
“Isn’t it necessary to prioritize what’s more important? Isn’t work a more important matter? I believe you can understand that,” Tianyu hastily explained. He didn’t want to be seen as unreliable by ngzhen; how would he get by in the future otherwise?
ngzhen shook her head, “I don’t understand, and why should I? All I know is that you should do what you said. You’re our big brother, and you should set an example. You said you would take us out, so tomorrow you should take us out to play. What’s signing a contract compared to that?” ngzhen argued unreasonably. Tianyu had never encountered such an attitude before and was montarily at a loss for words.
After a long while, he managed to respond with a wry smile, “Zhenzhen, when did you beco so unreasonable?”
“Brother Tianyu, you’re not getting any younger. How can you be so naive to believe you could reason with a woman?” ngzhen retorted.
As soon as ngzhen said this, Tianhua couldn’t help but burst into laughter, while Tianyu’s mouth twitched. A 17-year-old child daring to call herself a woman.
But regardless, tomorrow was the day of the contract signing, and whether by throwing a tantrum or being unreasonable, ngzhen had no intention of letting Tianyu leave. “Alright, I’ve just finished my howork and I’m hungry. Do you guys want so late-night snacks?”
“Yes.”
The siblings quickly agreed in unison, decisively putting aside their worries for the mont. If they didn’t eat the late-night snacks now, they soon wouldn’t have the chance.
They agreed readily, and ngzhen went to the kitchen to make so simple but delicious food.
After finishing the late-night snacks, everyone went back to their rooms. Tianyu tossed and turned all night, unable to decide whether he should go or not.
The next day, after breakfast, Tianyu seed to finally make up his mind, and then they all left the house together.
The Mall opened late, and they arrived just in ti. However, during the short journey, Tianyu’s phone was bombarded with calls; one after another, even he started to get annoyed. He had already said he wouldn’t go, so why keep calling him?
After they settled ngchen in the children’s playground, Tianyu finally answered another persistent call.
“Hello?”
“Bro, you really not coming? This is a one-ti opportunity: miss it and it’s gone. There’s a fortune-making business here, and without you, it just doesn’t feel right.”
Tianyu was also getting frustrated, “I really can’t leave right now. My sister and brother are playing in the Mall; I can’t just leave two kids in the Mall, can I?”
Hearing Tianyu’s response, both Tianhua and ngzhen were satisfied, at least he showed so sense of responsibility.
But the person on the other end of the call scoffed, “How old are you to be babysitting? Think about it, what’s more important, taking care of kids or making money? If you earn money, you can hire a Nanny to take care of them. Why do you need to babysit yourself? Brother, think carefully.”
The temptation was not small, but since they were already at the Mall, Tianyu would not just leave the i siblings there. So he said, “Bro, I’m sorry, I can’t make it this ti. Next ti for sure, no excuses.”
After that, he hung up and switched off his phone.
Since today was the contract signing day, and he wouldn’t be participating, was there any reason to keep his phone on? Plus, it was fine to switch it off; if his family needed to contact him, they could call Tianhua or ngzhen.
Tianyu was determined not to think about the startup anymore; he took off his shoes and went straight into the children’s playground to find ngchen.
Tianhua and ngzhen exchanged smiles as they watched Tianyu play with ngchen. Tianhua said, “Zhenzhen, why do you also think this startup is unreliable?”
She was quite curious to hear the analysis of her high school senior cousin, especially since, as ngzhen had said, she was at the peak of her intellectual powers.
