Chapter 353: Going Overseas

After Shao Qiyang experienced this, one could say that he had grown up once again. Mu Jingzhe didn’t know what exactly had happened, but she heard that Shao Qiyang’s courier company had experienced a retrenchment storm.

Although there were some rumors, Shao Qiyang had grown visibly, and his gaze had become much more resolute. Mu Jingzhe called all of this the mark of a CEO’s growth.

No one was a steady and mature CEO right from the start. They had to grow up slowly.

He had matured. Apart from that, Mu Jingzhe realized that Shao Qiyang and Mu Xue, two people who hadn’t been in contact for a long time, had actually started connecting again slightly. They didn’t look like lovers, but she felt that they seemed to have gotten familiar with each other and were quite relaxed when they spoke to one another.

Mu Jingzhe wasn’t wrong. After what had happened previously, the two of them were indeed much more relaxed around each other, especially Mu Xue. Sometimes, she would express her thoughts directly. Compared to when Shao Qiyang had fallen for her in the past, their styles had changed drastically. They were simply two different people now.

In the past, whenever she had faced Shao Qihai and Tang Moling, she’d had some thoughts in her mind that she hadn’t dared show. But around Shao Qiyang, she had no qualms about speaking her mind.

The villagers started spreading rumors that the two of them were about to become a couple. Needless to say, everyone felt that they were quite compatible—an old bachelor was a good match for an old girl. However, Mu Xue and Shao Qiyang denied it.

When Mu Jingzhe heard the villagers say that an old bachelor was compatible with an old girl, she almost spat out a mouthful of blood. How was a fine young man like him old? As far as their opinion on age was concerned, there was indeed a generation gap between Mu Jingzhe and everyone else.

Hearing that they were denying it, Mu Jingzhe wasn’t in a hurry to set them up. She was just watching the show from the sidelines. If the two of them became a couple, it would be akin to the supporting actor counter-attacking successfully and taking over the position of the male lead.

It was still unknown if Shao Qiyang and Mu Xue would become a couple, but the kids were becoming more and more heaven-defying.

After Shao Dong launched his Good Brother Refrigerator, in a few months, he went on to launch his Good Brother Washing Machine and Television, turning ‘Good Brother’ into a household name brand.

Of course, Mu Jingzhe didn’t idle around either. Other than the toilet paper and sanitary napkins, the underwear line was also finally launched. With comfort and fashionable style as its main selling points, it paved the way for a new market.

Although underwear was meant to be worn under one’s clothes, one wanted their underwear to look good. Basically, those who had worn Mu Jingzhe’s brand of undergarments didn’t want to wear the old ones anymore.

Shao Xi published a second travelogue and really started interacting with film and television production companies. He wanted to learn more about the industry to open such a company of his own in the future.

Shao Nan was the only one not working hard on his career. What he did was study. More and more books were brought home, and the number of times he corresponded with the two professors also increased. In any case, Mu Jingzhe couldn’t understand them at all.

Little Bei, on the other hand, relaxed for some time. She didn’t want her life to be occupied by acting, nor did she want to constantly act as someone else. She also wanted to be herself. Therefore, after filming “Nameless”, she went back to her student life. Other than studying, she only played around.

Xiao Wu’s life hadn’t changed much. Ever since he had found out that he was a child of the Ji Family, Old Master Ji had been coming to see him when he had time. Knowing that he liked musical instruments and music, he would bring music-related things every time.

It would either be records, music teachers, or musical instruments. He never showed up empty-handed.

Ji Buwang was also very concerned about Xiao Wu. From time to time, he would take him to listen to music from all over the country. He took him overseas once during the winter break and also took him out twice during the break after school started.

Xiao Wu wasn’t idle either. He was interested in everything and absorbed it all like a sponge. Apart from his talent in music, Xiao Wu’s talent in languages was also revealed.

He learned languages very quickly, especially those that were linked to music. It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that as long as something was linked to music, he’d be interested in it. There was no language that Xiao Wu couldn’t learn. Other than the languages of various countries, the local dialects were also something Xiao Wu was very interested in, including national languages.

As long as it was enhanced by music, there didn’t seem to be a language he couldn’t speak or master. He learned quickly and accurately, and his pronunciation was dead-on and clear. Those who didn’t know might think that he was a local.

In any case, for a long time, Mu Jingzhe was able to hear all sorts of languages at home. There were so many that she couldn’t even count them. Sometimes, when Xiao Wu spoke, she couldn’t even remember which country the language was from or what it meant. In any case, when he heard something he liked, he would learn how to sing it.

Other than the chatter that they couldn’t understand, there were also other dialects from all over the world. There was simply a hodgepodge of dialects. Shao Dong and the others found it interesting to listen to Xiao Wu, so they all started learning as well.

Little Bei was the most serious when it came to learning. She saw it as enhancing her capabilities as an actress. In movies and television, actors didn’t only speak Mandarin. There would also be many dialects. She wanted to learn them well so that she could also speak these dialects when required in the future.

The two children got serious. Whenever there was nothing to do at home, they would engage in conversations in various dialects, making many neighbors think that they were from all over the country.

Mu Jingzhe got to hear folk songs and local dialects from all over the country at home. It was quite interesting.

Wherever Xiao Wu went, what attracted him the most was singing. He would either stand still or squat down to learn.

This also came with a disadvantage. If he heard someone sing out of tune, Xiao Wu would follow suit. If he met someone who was especially confident, Xiao Wu would sing just like them, even if they were out of tune.

Of course, many people knew their limitations. They knew that they were out of tune, so they insisted on finding someone who wasn’t out of tune for Xiao Wu to learn from.

In the past, Xiao Wu used to be timid and hadn’t dared talk to others. After deliberately working on this, especially after overcoming his fear of Shao Qiyun, he had become bolder and he now dared to communicate with others when he was encouraged.

When he went to a foreign place, be it another country or a foreign area, he would talk to people or make friends through music.

Needless to say, Xiao Wu’s intuition was quite good. Many of the people he chose to communicate with had nice personalities, which bolstered Xiao Wu’s courage further.

Xiao Wu’s life didn’t seem to have changed, but he had gained a lot. The same applied to Shao Dong and the others. This was because Xiao Wu didn’t go to all those places alone. Most of the time, he would go with his siblings.

When they went on those three overseas trips, Ji Buwang also brought along one or two of the children. Shao Dong, Shao Xi, and Little Bei followed them overseas on one or more of those trips.

Mu Jingzhe felt that at this speed, the children might really travel the entire world in the future.

This was very beneficial. While they were young, it would actually be best to travel around and take a look at the world. It could broaden the horizons of the children and shape their worldview. Every day, they could feel that the children were growing. Their vision wasn’t only limited to their country but it expanded overseas.

In any case, Mu Jingzhe was very supportive. When she followed the children around, she felt like she was also broadening her horizons, which benefited her designs.

This also made Mu Jingzhe feel a little melancholic. If only she had been able to travel around like this when she was young. Unfortunately, she hadn’t been given such a chance when she was young. She had been an orphan from a young age, so she didn’t use to have much money. Later on, when she had grown up, she had become a little timid and she wasn’t that generous.

Fortunately, it wasn’t too late for the five kids. Anyway, Shao Dong and the others had become different after all that traveling.
