Chapter 1141: Chapter 1201

"You can’t just put it that way. For example, if I ended up at a company I don’t like, I might not want to put in the effort and just muddle through each day. It’s precisely because I joined a company I like and have goals that I’m working twice as hard, telling myself to only succeed and not fail!"

Ever since Qiao Xi joined Rong Xun’s company, she’s been working around the clock, constantly enhancing her skills, working hundreds of times harder than when she was in university.

Qiao Qiqi thought she made a valid point.

"So what do you want to eat tonight? It’s my treat!" Qiao Xi was extremely happy.

"How about inviting my Third Brother?" Qiao Qiqi asked.

"Uh... wouldn’t it be inappropriate? If he finds out about our relationship, could it cause issues?" Qiao Xi was a bit conflicted.

"What issue? It’s settled then. I only agreed to let you meet because I thought you could help my Third Brother, otherwise I wouldn’t care."

Hearing this, Qiao Xi accepted it; she was eager to meet her idol, despite having seen him at the company before. It seemed her idol never noticed her.

Qiao Qiqi informed Third Brother about having dinner together, and Rong Xun immediately rearranged his plans and went home to bring his little princess to meet his sister.

Nuonuo really missed her aunt, so much so that it made her little head ache. When she heard they were going to eat together, she was thrilled and asked the maid to dress her in her most beautiful little dress.

Qiao Xi insisted on buying a dress for Qiao Qiqi before they headed to the restaurant. By the time they arrived, Rong Xun and Nuonuo were already there. Nuonuo was playing in the private room when she saw Qiao Qiqi and happily ran over to her.

Qiao Qiqi quickly hugged the little girl, pinched her cheek, "Nuonuo, did you miss me?"

Nuonuo immediately nodded vigorously to indicate that she did.

"That’s not enough, you have to tell Aunt."

Though the little girl had started speaking, she was accustomed to expressing herself through gestures and needed to be consciously guided because her language skills were weak.

"Yes!" The little girl’s soft, sweet voice could melt anyone’s heart.

Qiao Xi curiously looked at the little girl; she was truly beautiful, like a crystal.

"Third Brother, let me introduce you, this is my Little Aunt’s cousin named Qiao Xi, she’s currently working at your company."

Rong Xun’s gaze finally landed on the girl who entered with his sister, confused for a second then suddenly understood, "I remember you, your design just won a major award, the company is already planning to prioritize its development, you did very well."

Qiao Xi, suddenly praised by her idol, blushed instantly, "Just lucky is all."

"I’ve seen your design, it’s excellent and unique, how could it just be luck? No need to be so modest." Rong Xun praised without reservation.

Qiao Xi’s face turned even redder.

After everyone sat down, Rong Xun said, "She’s your cousin, why haven’t I heard you mention her before?"

"My cousin said she wants to earn your recognition through her efforts, not through my connections."

Qiao Xi almost fainted from hearing her cousin state it so bluntly; couldn’t she be more subtle? So she could only sit there with a forced smile.

"Very impressive." Rong Xun looked at Qiao Xi a few more times.

Qiao Xi could only accompany with a blushing smile.

"Sister, hug hug." Nuonuo suddenly reached out her soft little arms towards Qiao Xi.

Qiao Qiqi and Rong Xun were both shocked because Nuonuo had been very withdrawn before and wouldn’t even acknowledge strangers, let alone let them hold her.
