Manager Chen knew what they were thinking and said in a tough tone, “It was the CEO who made this decision, so don’t make things difficult for me… How about this? You guys can discuss in private first to see who is willing to go. If no one says anything, we’ll draw lots to decide.”
He knew that these people would definitely not go willingly, so he would have to do it the hard way.
These words made the few top music trainers displeased. They thought that they had trained countless singers, and only in the Zhang Corporation could they have the best development opportunity. How could they possibly go to the Tang family?
They walked out of the room, each having a thought of their own. Wu Han, the oldest, was the first to express his opinion. “I’m the oldest, so I’ll give you guys this opportunity.”
As soon as Wu Han finished speaking, Li Cheng sneered and replied rudely, “Only the oldest has experience. I think Brother Wu is the most suitable one to go.”
“Heh!” Wu Han snorted. “I still have several singers with good prospects in my hands, so the company won’t let me go. If we’re talking about who is most free recently, I think Feng Lei should be the one.”
Everyone looked at Feng Lei.
When Feng Lei, who was sitting with his hands in his pockets, heard his name being mentioned, he looked up at them and said, “Then we’ll draw lots. If you guys don’t want to go, do you think I’ll go?”
With that, he stood up and walked towards Manager Chen’s office.
“So be it.”
Although everyone said that, they were especially nervous. At the same time, they were thinking about how to reject it if they were chosen.
After everyone came back in, Manager Chen asked, “Have you guys decided yet?”
They said at the same time, “Let’s draw lots.”
Manager Chen had already expected it. He knew very well how capable these people were. Today, he had to send one of them to the Tang family. Then, he would send someone who was talented but was currently at home because he had offended the investor.
…
Tang Li did not know that a phone call from her had made the top music trainers of the Zhang Corp scheme against each other.
After hanging up, she went to see how Butler Zhang trained Qiqi and Linlin to deal with people who caused trouble for them.
Butler Zhang was obviously very experienced in this area.
“If someone is framing you and saying that you took something valuable from them, you can’t panic at that time. In that scenario, the valuable thing is either still with them or they have already found a way to put it on you. You have to think of a way to put that thing back. If you want to put it back, do this first and then…”
The two little ones listened attentively and raised their hands to ask questions from time to time.
Tang Li was amused.
When Butler Zhang was tired of talking and was taking a water break, Tang Li could not help but ask, “Butler Zhang, how did you know about this?”
Butler Zhang stopped drinking. Worried that Tang Li would think that he was a scheming butler, he quickly explained, “I learned it from watching soap operas.”
After the water break finished, Butler Zhang resumed his lesson. Tang Li did not interrupt him and listened to him with the two little ones.
As they were listening, a servant suddenly knocked on the door, saying, “Fourth Madam, Miss Tan is here. She said she wants to see you.”
Hearing the name, Butler Zhang frowned, but after being lectured by Butler Yang last time for sticking his nose into Madam’s business, Butler Zhang stayed quiet this time.
Tang Li thought for a moment and said, “Invite her to the living room.”
When they walked over, Tan Wenjing was already sitting in the living room waiting for them.
When Tan Wenjing saw Tang Li come with Qiqi and Linlin, she immediately stood up and said with a smile, “I heard from Bailing that Fourth Master and Fourth Madam brought back two babies, so I came to see them. I didn’t expect the two babies to be so beautiful and cute.”
The corners of Tang Li’s lips curled up slightly. Linlin giggled and said, “Sister, you’re beautiful too.”
“Oh, you must be Linlin. You’re so sweet.”
After Tan Wenjing finished speaking, she picked up two gift boxes from the side. “Nice to meet you. This is my greeting gift to you. I hope you like it.”
Qiqi said with a straight face, “Thank you, but we don’t want it.”
Linlin added, “Yes, we don’t want it.”
Tan Wenjing did not expect the two children to reject her. Feeling a little awkward, she looked at Tang Li.
The corners of Tang Li’s lips curled up slightly, but she said, “Qiqi and Linlin are still young. Yihan and I just taught them this morning not to accept things given by others. Miss Tan, thank you but please take back the gifts.”
“But…”
“Children are too young and can be easily bribed. Besides, Yihan and I can give them anything. We don’t want children to develop the habit of taking things from others.”
These words made the smile on Tan Wenjing’s face freeze. After a while, she said embarrassedly, “I didn’t think it through. Then I’ll take the gift back.”
After saying that, she put the two boxes away and asked Tang Li nervously, “I really like children. Fourth Madam, can I come and play with Qiqi and Linlin in the future?”
“That depends on whether they are willing to play with you or not.” Tang Li did not answer directly.
Qiqi and Linlin did not speak.
Tan Wenjing looked at Qiqi and Linlin with a gentle smile, but she was nervous.
Her goal today was to show Tang Li her kindness and at the same time bribe the two little ones.
However, now that things had turned out this way, she was not confident at all.
For a moment, the living room became very quiet. Butler Zhang, who was standing at the side, felt embarrassed for Tan Wenjing.
At that moment, Tang Li said, “Qiqi, Linlin, Miss Tan is asking you a question. Why aren’t you answering?”
Qiqi raised his chin slightly and said with a straight face, “I’m a boy. I don’t play with girls.”
Tan Wenjing was speechless.
Linlin blinked her big eyes and said sweetly, “Sure.”
Tan Wenjing finally heaved a sigh of relief and was about to smile.
Linlin added, “But we usually have to study. Why don’t you come and look for me in the morning? Qiqi and I will run with Uncle Zhang every morning. You can run with us.”
Tan Wenjing agreed. “Alright.”
