Chapter 1297: Interning at Your Family’s Company

When the two of them left the Zhou Family and returned to the apartment, Zhou Chengchen still didn’t look very good.

Finally, after entering the room, she reached out and grabbed Xi Siyan: "It’s not necessary."

Xi Siyan just smiled at her: "It’s okay."

It would have been better if he hadn’t spoken. That "it’s okay" instantly pushed Zhou Chengchen’s guilt to the peak.

Xi Siyan wouldn’t covet her family’s assets. Zhou Chengchen could be a hundred percent sure of this; he was so outstanding, so proud. Even though the Zhou Group was a huge temptation to anyone, she believed that to Xi Siyan, it wasn’t!

So her parents’ actions made Zhou Chengchen feel they were judging a gentleman’s heart with the mind of a petty person.

Xi Siyan seemed to see through her thoughts, and his smile became even more gentle: "Cheng Chen, this is how it should be."

"What should it be?"

Xi Siyan had known Zhou Chengchen since he was a teenager. Of course, he knew that this little girl in front of him, under the protection of her family, knew nothing about the deceptions of society.

Not to mention the business world. Her father had protected her for the past twenty years, and he would protect her in the decades to come.

Xi Siyan didn’t want to explain too much, but he also didn’t want her to feel guilty towards him like this.

"Cheng Chen, one can’t be impulsive in the business world. Your father’s approach is not wrong; it’s an indispensable part of stabilizing a family business."

"But..."

"I don’t mind, I really don’t. What I want is you."

"I..."

"Moreover, I like to earn my place in the world by myself. I don’t want to rely on anything else, so even if your father didn’t do this, I would have suggested it."

Zhou Chengchen blinked. She still didn’t understand business matters, but at least she could hear the meaning in Xi Siyan’s words now.

Her eyes instantly became incredibly bright. She believed that he could have his own place in the world, she had always believed that.

In this matter, the Zhou Family was not wrong, and Xi Siyan didn’t care at all. Zhou Chengchen initially felt a bit uncomfortable, but she didn’t really pay much mind to it, especially when she saw that Xi Siyan truly didn’t care. Zhou Chengchen felt that if she held onto it, it would be even more strange.

Xi Siyan was very busy. Zhou Chengchen occasionally visited his company; she liked the youthful atmosphere there. Although she didn’t understand anything about programs or design, even just helping with photocopying something made Zhou Chengchen happy.

Moreover, the group of people there was really easy to get along with. Even after knowing her identity, the gap in their hearts didn’t last long.

Zhou Chengchen also realized that the reason for this was partly because those people were indeed easy to get along with, and partly because they admired Xi Siyan.

This admiration wasn’t because Xi Siyan was their boss, but because of his own charisma.

This charisma was convincing, so the entire company of just over twenty people had a unique cohesiveness.

During lunch break, the whole company was still busy with some project, and Zhou Chengchen was curled up in Xi Siyan’s office, munching on an apple and browsing Weibo when suddenly a WeChat message from Xiao Rou popped up.

[Cheng Chen, guess who I saw at the company today?]

[Chen Youran! Chen Youran! She’s actually interning at your family company.]

With two consecutive messages, Zhou Chengchen was taken aback. What does interning at her family company mean?

[Interning at my family company?]

[Zhou Group, I’m interning here now.]
