Chapter 23 3 Like Wolves, 4 Like Tigers
Xue Meiting was unwilling to comply with the provincial investment group's arrangements and did not want to be transferred to another place, so she simply asked for sick leave. The group leaders readily approved it and told her to rest for a few months.
It's obvious they just want her to leave.
In the following days.
She would come over every day to help Lu Ming with housework, exercise together in the morning, and make late-night snacks for the children together in the evening.
The two families are not only neighbors across the street, but also live on the top floor, so they decided to grow dozens of boxes of fruits and vegetables together on the rooftop.
Working together as a team of men and women definitely makes the work easier.
Lu Ming felt pretty good about it.
That evening, Xue Meiting created a group chat for Gao He's mothers, adding Mei Yanping, Pan Li, and Lu Ming to discuss the middle school entrance exam and high school matters.
She plans to send Gao He to Huarui International High School because the private high school has a top-tier class and the best math Olympiad coaching team in the province.
Although Hua Rui Middle School's annual expenses are at least tens of thousands of yuan, she can definitely afford to pay for it.
Mei Yanping shared the same thought.
Pan Li, who was in the cooling-off period for divorce, remained silent.
Lu Ming remained silent.
"Da Ming, what are you thinking?" Mei Yanping asked anxiously.
"I still want to take Rui Rui to a prefecture-level city in Northeast China and register her for school there three years in advance."
Lu Ming had his own ideas.
If he were to actually go to another province, he could even raise his physique and appearance attributes to ten points, so he wouldn't be afraid of getting into trouble at all.
Anyway, nobody knows him.
This is an even better option for Rui Rui, as it would significantly reduce the difficulty of getting into a good university.
"Daming, I think you should try your best to let Ruirui stay in the province to study. As long as you have connections and influence, there's not much difference between a third-tier university and a first-tier university."
Xue Meiting definitely didn't want Lu Ming to leave the province.
"Yes, with Meiting and me looking after her, Ruirui only needs a proper bachelor's degree!" Mei Yanping immediately found an ally and eagerly joined forces with her best friend Xue Meiting.
As her best friend, Mei Yanping was actually well aware of Xue Meiting's movements these days, but she didn't pay much attention to them.
If I'm not mistaken.
She guessed that Lu Ming wanted to get into a top-tier 985 university first, and then find a girl to date at the university.
Damn it!
These middle-aged men are all worse than beasts!
They unleash their full firepower and heavy artillery on female college students, but they keep the middle-aged women completely at arm's length and keep them at arm's length!
We have to find a solution!
"Daming, Tingting, let's go cycling in Jinping Mountain this weekend, and then soak in the hot springs at Longtan Gorge!"
Mei Yanping immediately came up with a series of arrangements. She had previously inspected the Longtanxia Hot Spring Resort and felt that it was difficult to make money there, but it was very suitable for couples to go on dates.
"Sure, this will help me clear my head. I'm really having a hard time working at the provincial investment group lately, it's so frustrating!"
Xue Meiting readily agreed.
Lu Ming remained silent.
He didn't want to go, because it would waste a whole day and prevent him from completing his daily tasks, resulting in a loss of tens of thousands!
The problem is that both Mei Yanping and Xue Meiting, these middle-aged women, have been kind to him, and it's not easy for him to refuse their invitation to go out for a day.
"Da Ming, you're not just going to let the two of us women go to the hot springs, are you?" Mei Yanping continued to press.
Cycling was just an excuse; the real goal was the hot springs.
Longtanxia Hot Spring Resort has many Japanese-style garden baths. Once the door is closed, who knows what might happen inside!
Lu Ming wasn't familiar with the hot spring resort, but he remained highly vigilant and asked, "What about the children?"
"I'll take care of the kids, you guys go have fun for a day!" Pan Li finally said.
She's currently hesitating about whether to really divorce Lao Yang, so how could she be in the mood to go to Longtan Gorge for a hot spring bath?
There's no way to use the children to reject Mei Yanping!
Lu Ming could only suggest, "Miao Yuyan, the vice principal of Huarui Middle School, is my college classmate. If the children are going to study at Huarui next semester, we will definitely need to trouble her to take good care of them."
She happens to enjoy cycling, so we invited her to join the event so everyone can get to know her beforehand!
Thirty is like a wolf, forty is like a tiger!
If Anita Mui is a tigress, then Miao Yuyan is a wolf; both middle-aged, beautiful, and mature women are quite hungry, the kind whose desires are insatiable.
The only solution is to find a way to make the tigers and wolves fight each other!
"Sure!"
Mei Yanping readily agreed.
After the group chat continued for a while, Lu Ming added Miao Yuyan to the group, and Mei Yanping added Yao Yao to the group.
Hearing that they were going cycling in Jinping Mountain and soaking in the hot springs at Longtan Gorge over the weekend, Miao Yuyan asked in the group chat, "I heard that Chairman Han from the school is also going to Longtan Gorge to inspect projects this weekend. Could we invite her to soak in the hot springs together?"
She's just the vice principal of a private school under the group; she certainly doesn't have the authority to invite the female chairman to a hot spring.
Undoubtedly, they hoped that Mei Yanping would step in and create a good opportunity for her to take a bath with the female chairman.
After all, Mei Yanping is a major shareholder and senior executive of Fuxin Capital, managing a private equity fund worth tens of billions of yuan. She is considered a local bigwig in the provincial financial circle and has a wide network of connections.
Chairman Han came from a neighboring province. When he acquired Huarui Middle School in the provincial capital, Fuxin Capital assisted in the negotiations.
After a few minutes.
Mei Yanping replied in the group chat, "I'll give it a try. Anyway, none of the projects in Longtanxia Scenic Area have any investment value, so looking at them is a waste of time!"
"If President Han really wants to invest, and those projects are to continue construction, perhaps he could give me a chance!"
Xue Meiting had a sudden, unexpected idea.
Her job at the provincial investment group is now in an awkward position, as more than one person is secretly targeting her.
Rather than addressing Boss Huang's alleged shoddy workmanship on the highway project, it was more of a warning to her, a way to make her obedient within the group and work together to make money.
However, her position as deputy general manager was arranged by the provincial State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission. She was a professional parachuted-in personnel drawn from within the state-owned enterprise, specifically responsible for reviewing infrastructure projects.
If anything really happens in the future, the responsibility will fall on her.
If she couldn't afford to offend them, she could at least avoid them, so she simply changed jobs and ran away.
"I'll try my best!"
Mei Yanping replied again in the group, this time she was definitely going to make a real effort, after all, she was not familiar with Miao Yuyan, but she was best friends with Xue Meiting.
Mei Yanping and Xue Meiting met at Jiangnan University; one was the campus belle of the Finance Department, and the other was the campus belle of the Architecture Department.
The two were in the same year and participated in a debate competition as freshmen, representing their class as opponents and Jiangda University as teammates.
Wait a few more minutes.
Mei Yanping then informed the group chat: "We need to adjust our itinerary a little. We'll go to the hot springs this afternoon and go hiking together tomorrow. President Han wants to visit Longtan Temple."
"Ugh, what's there to see in that lousy place!"
Lu Ming couldn't help but complain.
Although he wasn't born in the provincial capital, he lived there for twenty years, starting from when he went to university.
I've visited all the surrounding scenic spots several times.
"Jiangtai Group invested several hundred million yuan a few years ago to renovate Longtan Temple. It should look better now than before."
Mei Yanping quickly tried to reassure them in the group chat, fearing that Lu Ming might not want to accompany the group of middle-aged women on their outing.
If it's just a few middle-aged women, who are they going to show off by soaking in a hot spring? They might as well just take a bath in their bathtub at home!
"You guys decide, I'm just playing along!"
Lu Ming did not continue complaining.
He mainly felt that two days was too long and would really interfere with his studies. Just the inability to complete daily tasks would result in the loss of more than twenty grams of gold.
Of course, soaking in a hot spring with a female billionaire might give you the chance to complete a side quest (Chapter 31).
Resist the temptation of a billionaire beauty!
You can also complete the title quest (II) and obtain the enhanced version of the "Wealth and Honor Cannot Be Moved" title.
