"By the way, Xiao Xi, your talent voucher seems to be showing some activity."
After thinking for a long time, Xiao Hua remembered the thing it was supposed to tell its host.
"Huh? Talent voucher?"
Qiu Xi took a while to recall that she did have such a voucher.
It had been several days after she received it, and there had been no reaction, unlike the previous Master voucher.
So Qiu Xi had forgotten about it, only reminding Xiao Hua to tell her if there was any movement later.
After so much time had passed, she had forgotten, and now this talent voucher was actually working?
Qiu Xi was curious, "Let me see."
"Okay!"
But the moment she saw it, Qiu Xi was stunned.
Pei Wen?
Was this Pei Wen the Pei Wen she was thinking of?
After a long period of deliberation, Qiu Xi calmed down.
Since the system said so, this Pei Wen should be fine.
However, Qiu Xi now realized that she was very serious about the office matter. If this person couldn't sort himself out, then she didn't want him.
Otherwise, she would have to clean up the mess later, and she was aiming to be a hands-off manager from the start.
She couldn't leave Xiao Feifei with a pile of unfinished business in the end, or she would have to help out, which wouldn't be worth it!
So, it was best to wait for this person to come to her.
If he could sort himself out, then they could brainstorm together later, and perhaps even clear his name.
Yes, Qiu Xi, who had been hesitant before, now saw things more clearly. Coupled with the system's talent voucher, she was about eighty to ninety percent convinced by what Liang Yunfei had said about Pei Wen.
After all, the system wouldn't trick her, would it?
Even if it wanted to trick her, it wouldn't wait until now.
So, Qiu Xi, who was now clear-headed, immediately relaxed. She put the matter aside, washed up, and went to bed.
As for what would happen next, she would wait until Pei Wen came to her.
If he didn't, she would act as if nothing had happened and continue her life as usual.
After all, she wasn't idle at all now and didn't want to create extra trouble for herself.
With that thought, Qiu Xi closed her eyes and fell asleep.
......
The next day, in the morning.
Because she had slept late, it was almost mealtime, and Qiu Xi had not yet woken up.
Meanwhile, Nan Hua and his family were almost at the doorstep.
The last time Nan Hua returned, he told his family about this matter. The old man and Chu Sheng were very excited and had prepared the gifts they would bring for the visit early on.
As for Nan Hao, although he didn't show much reaction on the surface, he was actually happy deep down.
For this reason, he even suggested that the whole family return to Imperial Mansion Mingyuan a day earlier, as arriving earlier was better.
So, the four of them ate early and came over.
When they arrived at the doorstep, the Qiu family, except for Qiu Xi, had just finished eating and tidying up.
"Ding dong~"
The doorbell rang outside. Qiu's mother was curious, who could be visiting so early in the morning?
There were only a few familiar people here.
Curious, Qiu's mother got up and walked outside.
"Hey! Hua kid, why did you come so early?"
"And who are these?"
Seeing that it was indeed a familiar face, Qiu's mother immediately walked forward.
"Aunt Huang, isn't today the housewarming banquet? I brought my parents to help."
Qiu's mother chided with a smile, "You kid, you're something else..."
Saying that, she invited them in.
"Hehe~"
Nan Hua smiled, "Aunt Huang, no need to be polite with me."
"Let me introduce you. This is my grandfather, Nan Shan, my father, Nan Hao, and my mother, Chu Sheng."
"Grandpa, Dad, Mom, this is Xi Xi's mother, Huang Yixian."
It had to be said that Nan Hua had put effort into this.
After the introductions, Nan Hua had no more role to play.
Chu Sheng, with a smile on her face, walked up and said, "You must be Xiao Xi's mother. You're so beautiful. No wonder Xiao Xi is also such a pretty girl."
Qiu's mother beamed at the compliment.
She had been using the skincare and beauty products Xiao Xi had given her recently, and her face had indeed changed quite a bit.
"Not at all, you look even better. You can't tell your age at all."
After a bit of mutual flattery like this, before they even entered the house, the two were already calling each other sisters.
After coming inside, Qiu's mother remembered that her daughter Xiao Xi was still lying in bed.
She had originally wanted her daughter to rest more. These days, she was busy until very late every night, and when asked, she said it was for her studies and work and couldn't be delayed.
So, now that she finally had time to rest, she didn't urge her to get up.
But now that Nan Hua had arrived, she couldn't still be lying in bed.
So, Qiu's mother asked Qiu's father and the two elders in the family to entertain them first, and she quietly went upstairs to call her daughter.
"Xiao Xi, are you awake?"
After knocking a few times at the door and getting no response, Qiu's mother directly opened the door and went in.
"Xiao Xi, get up."
"Mmm... Mom, why are you here so early in the morning?"
After calling out twice, Qiu Xi dazedly opened her eyes.
But before she could react, she wondered why her mother was looking for her so early in the morning.
It shouldn't be...
"You sleepyhead, are you still half asleep!"
"It's not early morning at all, it's already past noon. Hurry up and get up."
"That kid Nan Hua has brought his whole family here, and you're still lying here..."
Qiu's mother chattered, and with a flick of her wrist, pulled open the curtains in the room.
As the light shone in, Qiu Xi immediately closed her eyes instinctively.
Then, it dawned on her that Nan Hua was here?
And he brought his family?
Suddenly, Qiu Xi was completely awake.
Woken up by the shock...
"Mom! What did you just say?"
Not giving up, afraid she was still groggy, Qiu Xi asked again.
In fact, she was just trying to deceive herself...
Qiu's mother glared at her, "Nan Hua has brought his family. Hurry up and get up."
"I'll go down and entertain them first, you hurry!"
After urging her daughter, Qiu's mother hurried back downstairs.
As soon as Qiu's mother left, Qiu Xi sat up on the bed and jumped out of it.
If she didn't hurry, her image would be ruined!
That Nan Hua! He was really something, why did he have to come so early!
At this moment, Qiu Xi had completely forgotten that Nan Hua had mentioned this to her before...
