Chapter 280: A Master Beating Up Novices

“Yangyang, are you…”

The four were all stunned. They didn’t expect Sheng Yang to sign up for the business war because she had no experience in this field.

Sheng You and Kang Weizhen didn’t say much. They merely looked at each other, while Sheng You said, “Yangyang, I’ll take you to the office this weekend.”

“Alright.” Sheng Yang didn’t refuse.

“Sister,” Sheng Yuxi said seriously, “I ranked 11th in last year’s competition. I have some test questions you can go through. In addition, I got a lot of help from Eldest Brother. He has experience in this area.”

“Okay.”

Sheng Hanjing smiled helplessly. His parents and brother could be of help in this regard, but he didn’t know how he could help out. After thinking about it, he said gently, “Sister, I’ll play the piano for you. And if you need help from Eldest Brother, I’ll get him to do so.”

“Okay.”

Sheng Yuxi suddenly thought of something. “Sister, when you participate in the competition, you must be careful of Wen Zhiyi. He’s treacherous, and the Wen family has a grudge against the Sheng family. He’ll find a way to cheat you of your money. If you lose your money to him, points will be deducted.”

“Got it,” Sheng Yang said lightly. This was the second time she had heard this person’s name today.

Seeing his sister like this, Sheng Yuxi knew she wasn’t taking them seriously, but it didn’t matter. The preliminary round was a team competition, so his sister wouldn’t be alone.

However, very few people would be willing to team up with his sister. Sheng Yuxi sighed deeply. If only he were in the same grade as his sister.

Sheng Yang picked up the papers Sheng Yuxi gave her and went upstairs to go through them. She locked herself in her room to study.

Kang Weizhen glanced at Sheng You, feeling a little restless. “I think Yangyang is too strong-headed.”

“I agree.”

“This business war is very cruel.”

“We have to believe in Yangyang.” Sheng You pulled Kang Weizhen into his arms. “Even if she doesn’t do well, it’ll still be a valuable lesson.”

That night, Sheng Yuxi called his eldest brother to tell him what happened. Sheng Tingze frowned. “Why didn’t you stop her?”

“No one can stop Sister from making decisions on her own.”

“Stupid.” Sheng Tingze hung up the phone, but it was hard for him to get back to work.

He stood up and walked to the floor-to-ceiling window. He smiled, suddenly realizing that there was a silver lining. She might ask him about business-related matters.

In the wide room and under the soft lights, Sheng Yang had finished all the questions Sheng Yuxi gave her. She was now looking at some unsolved chemistry questions.

Just then, her cell phone rang and she answered it. “Hello?”

“I heard you’re participating in the business war?” It was Lu Zhiyuan’s sleepy voice.

He was always traveling around the world, so he was constantly jet-lagged.

“You’re very well-informed.”

“Yes, anything that has to do with business will reach my ears.” Lu Zhiyuan smiled and walked to a quiet corner. He leisurely lit a cigarette, his eyes looking deep and sexy. “Yangyang, if you participate in this, won’t it be equivalent to a master beating up a bunch of novices?”

Sheng Yang paused. “With Ming Qi’s nephew participating, I was wondering if I should be a little more gentle when torturing him.”

“No need.” Lu Zhiyuan had always been at odds with Ming Qi. “I heard that Wen Zhiyi will also be participating. He’s a very famous prodigy in the business world. Don’t destroy all his hopes and dreams.”
