Chapter 9 - 9Section

"This is my troublesome daughter, Xia Qingge."

"Oh, so it's my niece."

Xu Hao feigned surprise.

He looked at Qingge, who had walked closer, his gaze meaningful…

Hearing Xu Hao speak like this, Xia Jianghai secretly thought there was an opportunity and immediately reminded his daughter.

"Qingge, why aren't you greeting Uncle Xu?"

"Hello, Uncle Xu…"

Xia Qingge obediently greeted him, her eyes wide with curiosity as she observed Xu Hao.

Xu Hao could be said to be a very well-known entrepreneur.

Starting from scratch, he established the immense Xus Group, and his story was widely circulated.

He was an idol to countless young entrepreneurs.

Xu Hao graduated from Modu University and is now one of its board members; the university certainly did a lot of promotion…

Xia Qingge was from the same university, and having heard Xu Hao's story many times, she gradually became curious about him.

Upon seeing the Immortal Master, Xia Qingge's eyes lit up.

Xu Hao had worked hard for many years to start his business and now managed such a large Group.

He must have put in a lot of effort.

He was also the father of seven daughters.

She had originally thought he would be a middle-aged or elderly man with white hair and a face full of wrinkles…

Now she realized he was actually a handsome uncle with considerable mature charm.

He was older than her father but looked so much younger…

Xu Hao responded, then said to Xia Jianghai with dissatisfaction,

"My niece is here, and you didn't even tell me, so I didn't prepare a gift…"

"Qingge is already so grown up, how can she accept a gift from CEO Xu?"

Xia Jianghai was somewhat overwhelmed.

"How can that be? It's my niece's first time meeting me; how can I not give a gift?"

"Alright… I didn't bring one today, but I'll make it up to her another day."

Xu Hao smiled, thinking to himself.

What kind of gift should I give?

Or… why don't you just go all the way and give me a child?

The two exchanged pleasantries and walked into the Hotel together…

Xia Jianghai had already reserved a table inside, and once they arrived, he could directly ask the waiter to serve the dishes.

"Jianghai, I wonder why you wanted to see me today…"

While waiting for the dishes, Xu Hao suddenly asked.

"Uh…"

After all, he was asking for a favor, and Xu Hao's sudden question caught him off guard.

Xia Jianghai didn't know how to begin at once.

"To be honest, there's something I'd like to ask for your help with, Big Brother…"

"What is it?"

Xu Hao waved his hand, saying cheerfully,

"We're old friends; there's no need to beat around the bush. Just tell me directly what you need help with."

"If I can help, I definitely won't refuse…"

Xia Jianghai was touched.

They only had a business partnership.

There was some connection, but not much.

Xu Hao's immediate willingness to help almost brought him to tears…

If it were anyone else, he would suspect their intentions if they suddenly treated him so well.

But Xu Hao's character was impeccable; he didn't have the slightest doubt.

The two had indeed not been very close before, and Xu Hao wasn't particularly fond of Xia Jianghai.

But after learning that he had a daughter who was the female protagonist…

Xu Hao declared,

"You, my brother, I've decided to befriend you…"

After a moment of deep emotion, Xia Jianghai stated his purpose.

"Actually… I want Qingge to join your company, Big Brother…"

"I thought it was something serious. A job is a small matter; you just need to say the word."

Xu Hao was surprised for a moment, then laughed.

"The company is preparing for a transformation recently. I've already laid off some people, and I'll save a manager position for my niece then…"

..........

Not only did he agree to hire her, but he also reserved a manager position?

Both father and daughter were stunned after hearing this.

Xia Jianghai quickly said,

"That won't do! Qingge just graduated; how can she be capable of being a manager?"

How valuable was a manager position in a multi-billion dollar Group?

Even the owner of his own Bailian Steel Company had to be respectful and bow before him…

Xu Hao looked wistful, his gaze towards Xia Qingge carrying a hint of affection.

"You know about my daughters, don't you? After graduating, none of them want to come to the company; they'd rather start their own businesses outside…"

"Qingge is about the same age as my daughters. The first time I saw Qingge, I felt especially close to her."

"I believe Qingge won't disappoint me."

He said his daughters wanted to start their own businesses and didn't want to come to the company.

In reality, his daughters had no affection for him, and he had never even mentioned the idea of them joining the company.

Of course… these daughters also didn't want to be dependent on others.

Xia Qingge was touched by his words.

Besides her parents, it was the first time someone trusted her so much; she felt a warmth in her heart…

"Ding… Xia Qingge is touched, Emotional Value +234…"

Since Xu Hao had spoken to this extent, Xia Jianghai could no longer refuse.

Seeing his daughter still standing there in a daze, he said with a hint of exasperation,

"Why are you standing there in a daze? Hurry and thank your Uncle Xu!"

Xia Qingge came back to her senses and earnestly said to Xu Hao,

"Thank you, Uncle Xu. I won't disappoint you…"

Xu Hao nodded.

"You can report directly to the company tomorrow."

"Start as a regular employee, gain some experience, and then I'll promote you and give you a raise…"

Everyone laughed, and the atmosphere was harmonious.

Xia Jianghai opened his mouth, wanting to speak but hesitating.

The matter was already settled here.

But Xu Hao agreed too quickly, and he hadn't had time to explain the reason.

Ultimately, he still told Xu Hao the truth about his daughter.
