"Alright, alright. Let's not talk about this for now. Xinyao is coming back soon." Seeing that the bathroom light had turned off, I quickly stopped talking. When Xinyao came back, we pretended as if nothing had happened and took a quick nap. When we woke up, there was less than an hour before the plane was due to depart. We tidied up a little and prepared to depart the plane. It felt different when I stepped on my own soil. I was worried that Yiyi's environment overseas would be different from that in China, so I carefully observed her. Fortunately, she seemed to be in high spirits. Perhaps it was because she was in an unfamiliar environment, but she seemed to find everything new. Looking around, I let out a long sigh of relief.
When we left the airport, our family had already arranged for someone to pick us up. Suri and Xinyao did not go home with us, as they had returned to their own home. However, Suri told me that he would contact me in two days. It was probably about the money I had embezzled without permission. When we arrived home, our parents were already waiting at the door to welcome us. We exchanged a few simple greetings before we entered the living room. When we arrived home, Yiyi had already attracted everyone's attention, especially my father. My father was very happy when he hugged her. It seemed that they were still very close despite being generations apart. I did not want to disturb them, so I asked them to play with Yiyi downstairs while I went upstairs alone.
When I returned to my bedroom, my mother had already arranged for the nanny to tidy up my bedroom. I lay on my bed and felt an inexplicable amount of pressure after coming back. The thing that filled my mind the most was probably Kurosawa and Duanmu Que's matter. The Red Baron left as soon as she got off the plane because she knew the urgency of the matter. She was also afraid that I would be worried, so she might have gone to deal with it first. However, she should be back by now. As I had guessed correctly, there was a knock on my bedroom door. The Red Baron pushed the door open and entered. She looked at me and I looked at her. We looked at each other and smiled.
The Red Baron sat on my bed and reached out her hand to stroke my hair gently. This was her signature gesture of doting on me. She knew that I was an insecure person and only a simple comforting gesture like this could calm my heart. The Red Baron looked at me and said, "Don't worry, I've already taken care of everything. The money has been directly financed into one of the Kurosawa's most unprofitable projects. I'm using my real name, so no one should be able to recognize me. The project should improve very quickly and solve some of the Kurosawa's problems. You don't have to worry."
I nodded and leaned on her hand. "Thank you for your hard work. I can only rest assured if I leave this matter to you."
The Red Baron looked at me and smiled. "Don't mind what Suri said. He's doing it for your own good. He doesn't want you to take on too much responsibility for others. It's a good thing that the President is very satisfied with you for the American project. In two days, Suri and I will come to the meeting to settle the debt. Then, everything will be fine. You should rest well and get used to the jet lag."
I looked at the ceiling and sighed. "How can I rest well? Oh right, do you have any news about Duanmu Que? How is he now? "
"I guessed that you would ask about him. When I went there, I asked the secretary. Because of the internal disintegration and the outflow of shares, President Duanmu and his wife, as well as Duanmu Que, have been keeping a low profile. There's no news about them anymore. However, I heard that they've been eating and living in the company. They haven't even returned home. I heard that they've been surrounded by reporters, so it's not convenient for them to show their faces."
After hearing the Red Baron's words, I became even more worried. I thought for a moment and looked at the Red Baron. "Red Baron, can you help me arrange something? I want to see Xiao Que."
The Red Baron lay down next to me. She looked at me and said, "My lady, don't cause trouble at this time. Their company is almost in lockdown. You actually want to see him at this time? You're really crazy. Listen to me. It's not convenient for you to see him at this time."
"But how can I be at ease when something like this happens? Dad's health is not good. How can he take such a huge blow?" I felt depressed. My mood was very gloomy. Indeed, no one would be happy if such a thing happened to them. I suddenly thought about it and said to the Red Baron, "How about this, you help me contact Han Hao. He should know that I'm back."
The Red Baron looked at me and sighed. "Alright, leave this to me." The Red Baron thought for a moment, then she took out a bank card from her handbag and handed it to me. She looked at me and said softly, "Take it. This is a little bit of my savings. I know that my savings are only the tip of the iceberg for the Kurosawa, but this is a small token of my sincerity. Don't touch the funds that you can use. If the Chairman really finds out, I can't help you get away.
Take it. "I looked at the Red Baron in surprise. I took the bank card and asked her softly," This is your savings. Why are you giving it to me? You have nothing to do with the Kurosawa. "
The Red Baron reached out and touched my face, and said softly, "Because you are the eldest young lady, you are my first friend. You have difficulties, as a subordinate, I have to help you out of my duty. As a friend, I also need to help out of friendship, don't I?" You don't have to worry about it. I'll arrange a meeting with Han Hao for you. "
I hugged the Red Baron tightly. Actually, I knew that the money that the Red Baron gave me was the reward money that she had earned from every mission she completed since she started working for the Red Minghui. Although she earned a lot every month with her ability, it took a lot of determination to save up so much money. However, she gave me the money that she worked so hard to save up, which meant that she had to start all over again. My heart felt warm, and I was glad that I had made such a good friend.
After chatting with the Red Baron for a while, the two of us went downstairs to prepare for dinner. When I went to the living room, I saw that my parents were still playing with Yiyi. Yiyi was really a good girl. She didn't cry or throw a tantrum even after playing with her parents for so long. I walked over and carried Yiyi into my arms. Yiyi leaned on my shoulder obediently. She was probably tired from playing, but she didn't feel tired because of her grandparents. I patted her back gently, and she fell asleep not long after leaning on my shoulder. I said goodbye to my parents and carried Yiyi back to her room. After I settled her down and waited for her to fall asleep, I went downstairs to eat with everyone in the living room.
