Chapter 36: I Can Trade with Li Xiaoya



Chapter 36

"How much investment did Qin Sui add to your show last time?" Ning Heng asked on the phone.

"Please don\'t do this, Young Master Ning," the executive producer pleaded with a bitter expression, trying to dissuade him. "We really can\'t add any more people to this show..."

But when have rich kids ever not had their eyes on top of their heads? Ning Heng didn\'t care about his protests at all and just blurted out, "Why don\'t you learn from that variety show on the other channel? They have flying guests. You could do that too."

"The channel next to that one even changes guests every week, but that\'s because their show rules are different," the producer explained.

"Well then..." Ning Heng had a bright idea.

"Isn\'t your show called \'Exchange Lives\'? Brother Sheng is exchanging with that Li Qingqing girl, right? I could exchange with Li Xiaoya! Let Li Xiaoya go to my house, and I\'ll go live the rural life with Brother Sheng." This was Ning Heng\'s brilliant plan.

The executive producer: "..."

"I suggest you run such an excellent idea by Young Master Sheng first," the executive producer said with utmost sincerity.

Ning Heng, not suspecting anything, hung up and called Sheng Yuxiao again.

After listening, Sheng Yuxiao said one word: "Scram."

Ning Heng: "..."

Ning Heng immediately called the executive producer back: "Why is Brother Sheng angry with me?"

The producer said nervously, "I don\'t know either. Why don\'t you ask him yourself?"

"If Brother Sheng would take my calls, would I need to ask you?... Alright, let\'s be direct. If I invest 2 million, can I join?"

These rich kids really don\'t treat money as money!

The executive producer\'s pupils dilated, but to maintain his principles, he gritted his teeth and didn\'t utter a word.

"Did Qin Sui give you 10 million or something? He can\'t be that generous," Ning Heng wondered.

The executive producer had been taking these calls with Sheng Yuxiao present.

You could say the entire three-way conversation had been faithfully recorded by the cameras.

At this moment, Sheng Yuxiao was squatting by the door washing vegetables. Without looking up, he said, "Alright, let the head pig come over quickly. Take a few million in investment from him and be done with it. If we keep refusing, he might go crying to his cousin and have you removed from the production team."

The executive producer choked, then said, "Well, alright. This counts as calling for outside help, and that requires exchanging points. Is Young Master Sheng willing to exchange more points for this?"

Sheng Yuxiao poured some water and stood up: "Look at my skillful vegetable-washing technique. In a few days, I\'ll master all the household chores and farm work. How hard can it be to earn points?"

The executive producer finally nodded.

The audience had already started discussing: [Who is Ning Heng\'s cousin?]

[The famous CEO of Dongfeng Film and Television Group Co., Ltd. You know Qingning TV that this show belongs to? Ning Heng\'s cousin is a major shareholder there.]

[I see! These are really pure rich second-generation kids, all gathered in this little mountain village. This village never imagined it would see such a day, right?]

...

Because she had fallen behind in her studies for several days, Li Xiaoya was eager to go to school the next morning, wearing the new backpack Sheng Yuxiao had bought her.

As she crossed the familiar school gate and entered her classroom, everyone around her was extremely quiet. They stared at Li Xiaoya curiously and nervously, no one daring to greet her or say any bad words to her anymore.

After the Village Chief and Grandpa Li were taken away, parents from miles around had warned their children.

"Don\'t fight with Li Xiaoya, understand? No verbal fights either. Otherwise, I\'ll knock your head off when you get home!"

The raised palms of their parents left a deep impression on these children\'s hearts.

It wasn\'t until lunchtime, when Li Xiaoya went out to get food and Sheng Yuxiao came to meet her, that a child couldn\'t help but say, "Li Xiaoya, your brother has switched back?"

Sheng Yuxiao glanced at the child: "What do you mean switched back? It\'s always been just me."

The child burst into tears with a "Wah!"

Sheng Yuxiao: "..."

Li Xiaoya said to the child: "Don\'t cry."

The child was a bit chubby and didn\'t seem very bright. Sobbing, he said, "If... if you let me lick the candy in your pocket, I... I\'ll stop crying."

Hearing this, Sheng Yuxiao\'s eyebrows shot up: "That candy is mine! What are you thinking, little fatty? There\'s none for you!"

After saying this, he forcefully picked up Li Xiaoya by the waist and carried her away.

The chubby kid immediately cried even louder.

The bullet screen comments were cracking up.

[Young Master Sheng, how old are you? Why are you picking on kids?]

[Even fighting over candy, I\'m dying of laughter]

Sheng Yuxiao didn\'t know how the bullet screen comments were evaluating him at this moment. He just said very seriously to Li Xiaoya: "All your candy is for me, right?"

Li Xiaoya nodded.

"Then we can\'t give it to that little fatty," Sheng Yuxiao said, then realized this made him sound particularly petty, so he changed his tone, "He\'s already so fat, if he eats more he\'ll get cavities and become overweight."

After explaining this, Sheng Yuxiao accompanied Li Xiaoya to get food.

Li Xiaoya\'s lunchbox was also new, with Snow White printed on the left side and Ultraman on the right. In this run-down village school, as soon as Li Xiaoya took it out, a chorus of "Wow"s erupted in the cafeteria.

It could be said that it precisely captured all the children\'s hearts, making them express their envy one after another.

Sheng Yuxiao happily bent down and whispered in Li Xiaoya\'s ear: "I chose it for you. How is it? Not bad, right?"

Li Xiaoya nodded.

Sheng Yuxiao was unsatisfied: "That\'s all?"

Li Xiaoya hesitated before saying: "Thank you, brother?"

Sheng Yuxiao straightened up: "Alright, I\'ll buy you more next time."

Hearing this, the surrounding children\'s mouths watered profusely.

The two of them then shared their meal together.

Sheng Yuxiao suddenly asked: "Why are those female teachers at your school looking at me?"

Li Xiaoya tilted her head, pondered for a while, and said: "Maybe they\'re thinking about Qin Sui?"

"Thinking about Qin Sui? Why would they think about him?"

Li Xiaoya shook her head in confusion. She only knew that Qin Sui had become very popular after just one day at school. As for why he was popular, she had no idea.

Sheng Yuxiao thought it wouldn\'t be difficult to figure out this question, so he got up and went to the principal\'s office.

The principal\'s office was forced to explain to him: "It might be because Qin Sui is popular with the female teachers. We don\'t dare say this out loud, given how young Qin Sui is... Oh, and Qin Sui also taught a few classes to the younger grades, and those kids liked him too."

Sheng Yuxiao couldn\'t help but ask, "Did he teach Li Xiaoya\'s class as well?"

The principal replied, "Yes, one lesson."

"How did it go?"

"The elementary students all liked it, and the teachers praised him too," the principal answered truthfully, bracing himself.

"I\'ll teach them a class too," Sheng Yuxiao thought, wondering if this could earn him some points.

The principal nodded and immediately had someone bring over the teaching materials.

In the principal\'s view, for someone like Sheng Yuxiao or Qin Sui, who came from top-tier elite schools, teaching a few elementary school students would be like shooting fish in a barrel.

Sheng Yuxiao had never been a teacher before. After some thought, he decided to start with a different class.

He didn\'t want to risk teaching poorly and leaving a bad impression on Li Xiaoya, or embarrassing her in front of her classmates...

With his mind made up, Sheng Yuxiao went to "take up his post."

The lesson ended quickly.

Sheng Yuxiao returned to the principal\'s office with a gloomy face.

The principal jumped, standing up to ask, "H-how did it go?"

Sheng Yuxiao squeezed out a sentence through his throat: "...Can I beat the kids?"

"No! No! Please don\'t do anything rash!"

"Li Xiaoya is better after all. I\'m done teaching," Sheng Yuxiao tossed the pointer and walked out.

That evening, he returned to their dilapidated home.

Li Xiaoya lit the kerosene lamp, took out her books, and sighed quietly.

Sheng Yuxiao caught that sigh and quickly asked, "What\'s wrong? Did someone bully you?"

Li Xiaoya shook her head and said, "I\'ve fallen behind a bit in class."

Sheng Yuxiao\'s desire to be a teacher was instantly reignited.

But this time, he only wanted to teach Li Xiaoya.

He picked up Li Xiaoya\'s textbook and glanced at it... The third-grade questions were indeed very simple. But how should he teach her?

Sheng Yuxiao turned his back and borrowed a phone from the director, then called Sheng Jun\'s secretary: "Brother Yang, find me a tutor, the best one you can get."

The secretary was utterly shocked, thinking to himself, "The sun really did rise from the east today, how come the young master suddenly loves studying?"

"Hurry up, I need one in the next couple of days. Tell my dad to give you a raise tomorrow," Sheng Yuxiao said before hanging up.

He planned to learn from the best tutor.

Once he mastered the teaching techniques, he could turn around and teach Li Xiaoya - perfect!

While the tutor hadn\'t arrived yet, early the next morning, the sound of car tires screeching on the ground drew near.

Sheng Yuxiao poked his head out the door to see a long-haired figure leap out of the car, mouth wide open: "Bro Sheng, Bro Sheng, where are you? I\'ve come to join you!"

He turned his head to meet his "bro\'s" icy gaze, then heard Sheng Yuxiao say: "Keep it down. Li Xiaoya is still sleeping. If you wake her up, I\'ll break your legs and throw you in the pigsty as pig feed."
