In the courtyard, everyone is afraid of the little boy who is so smart!

Wang Jianguo stopped walking and turned around slowly, with a look of confusion on his face. He Yushui took two steps at a time and walked up to him, breathing heavily.

Her cheeks flushed from running, and her eyes flickered with grievance and anxiety. She explained eagerly:

"Brother Jianguo, I didn't say anything nonsense to them, really! What happened today was just a joke they played on me. I didn't expect this to happen."

As she spoke, her eyes became slightly red and her voice trembled unconsciously.

"You... don't take it personally. We all know that on the surface I am just your cousin. We can't let this matter cause any misunderstandings and affect our business."

As He Yushui spoke, she carefully observed Wang Jianguo's expression, hoping that he would believe her.

Wang Jianguo raised his eyes inadvertently and his gaze met He Yushui's eyes full of grievance and helplessness.

Her slender shoulders trembled slightly, she bit her lower lip with her pearly teeth, her eyes were red and tears were welling up in her eyes. She looked so pitiful and pitiful.

Wang Jianguo's heart suddenly felt like it was gently grasped by an invisible hand, and his heart was filled with love and care.

He couldn't help but raise his hand, his slender and broad palm was slightly warm.

It gently fell on He Yushui's soft hair and rubbed it lovingly as if it were the most precious treasure in the world.

"rainwater,"

His voice was low and firm, with a reassuring power.

"You don't need to explain to me. I know you would never say anything nonsense. You don't need to waste your words on others either."

Having said this, Wang Jianguo paused slightly and looked into the distance, as if he had penetrated the wall of the courtyard and saw something farther away.

"Our cousin relationship was just a facade from the beginning, it was fake."

"Now they want to make wild guesses and fantasize, let them do it. Sooner or later, the truth will come out, and they will know it sooner or later."

After saying that, Wang Jianguo looked at He Yushui deeply, as if he wanted to convey all his comfort and support to her through this look.

Then, he walked towards the backyard with steady steps and big strides.

He Yushui stood there, the morning breeze blew past, gently ruffling her hair, but she seemed unaware.

She just stood there quietly, looking at the direction where Wang Jianguo left with somewhat empty eyes. Her thoughts seemed to drift far away, and she was immersed in her own world, in a daze.

The courtyard was silent for a moment, with only the occasional chirping of birds, like soft sighs.

Wang Jianguo hurried to the backyard. As soon as he entered the yard, he saw Cheng Hai squatting in the corner, staring at a pile of debris.

Wang Jianguo took a few quick steps and came up to Cheng Hai, patted him on the shoulder, pulled him to sit on a stone bench nearby, and got straight to the point, discussing going to the city supply and marketing cooperative.

"Brother Hai,"

Wang Jianguo looked sincere, with full trust in his eyes.

"Didn't I tell you last time that I should take you to the city supply and marketing cooperative to visit some people there? From now on, you will be in charge of the purchase and supply business. I'm really too busy to handle it."

As he spoke, he took out a neatly folded piece of paper from his pocket, unfolded it and took a look.

"Well, I asked in advance. What a coincidence! There is a train today, which is just right. Let's take some rain water with us so that we can have someone to take care of us on the way. We will set off in the afternoon."

When Cheng Hai heard this, he instantly showed a bit of timidity on his face. He rubbed his hands nervously on his knees. After hesitating for a long time, he stammered:

"Jianguo, I... I'm really nervous. You know I'm not good at talking, unlike you, who thinks quickly and is good at speaking. You can have a few warm words with anyone."

"I'm just afraid that when I get there, I might say the wrong thing or do the wrong thing and ruin this great opportunity."

"How about we take Erhua and Erzhu with us? They are both smart people. I will feel more at ease with their help."

As Cheng Hai spoke, he looked up at Wang Jianguo, his eyes full of expectation, hoping that he would accept the proposal.

Wang Jianguo couldn't help laughing when he saw this. He hugged Cheng Hai's shoulders tightly and said cheerfully:

"Brother Hai, don't underestimate yourself! Let's take it step by step. I'm here to help you. What are you afraid of?"

"Experience more and I guarantee you'll be able to handle things on your own in the future. Erhua and Erzhu have other things on their hands, so it's just the three of us this time. We'll definitely be able to do it if we take it step by step!"

Wang Jianguo's words were powerful and his eyes were full of trust and encouragement for Cheng Hai.

Wang Jianguo frowned slightly, his eyes full of concern and expectation. He raised his hand again, with warm power in his palm.

He patted Cheng Hai's shoulder heavily, twice in a row, and each pat seemed to carry a heavy weight of advice.

"Brother Hai,"

Wang Jianguo's voice was low but powerful, and was particularly clear in this slightly silent space.

"Just follow me on this trip and get to know the business process and interpersonal relationships of the supply and marketing cooperative. Next time something like this happens, you will be the leader!"

As he spoke, Wang Jianguo slightly turned sideways and locked his gaze firmly into Cheng Hai's eyes, as if he wanted to force this trust into the other's heart.

"By then, you will be proficient in the business and have a good understanding of it. If you can take Erhua and Erzhu with you and teach them how to do things, how can they not admire you from the bottom of their hearts?"

"Your prestige will naturally be established, and everyone will naturally be willing to follow you wholeheartedly!"

Cheng Hai stood there, listening quietly to Wang Jianguo's heartfelt words. His heart felt warm as if it was illuminated by the spring sun.

He knew clearly in his heart that Wang Jianguo was speaking so earnestly today because it was all for his own good.

In this complex world, if you want to gain a foothold and make a name for yourself, hard work alone is not enough. You must also have the ability to convince others and the prestige to win over the masses.

Now that Wang Jianguo has given him this opportunity, he is undoubtedly helping him build a ladder to move up and paving a way to win people's hearts.

Thinking of this, Cheng Hai's eyes turned slightly red, the corners of his mouth raised, revealing a slightly grateful smile, and he took a deep breath.

Then he nodded heavily, and the amplitude of that nod was full of his determination and longing for the future.

Cheng Hai was busy for a while, arranging all the matters of the supply and marketing cooperative properly.

He repeatedly reminded the colleague in charge of every detail to ensure that nothing would go wrong during the few days he was away.

After everything was ready, he breathed a sigh of relief, wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead, and hurriedly met up with Wang Jianguo and He Yushui.
