Arc 1: Part 37
When Xi Chen Zhao founded ZR, he already held a certain status in the Xi family's Zsun Group.
Yan Yiqing advised him to stay steady with Zsun. Even though Xi Chen Zhao’s sister, Xi Tong Su, was the blood daughter of the Xi family and had a secure standing, Xi Chen Zhao had the qualifications to contest for the group’s succession.
Despite everyone's opposition, Xi Chen Zhao resolutely used all his savings to establish ZR Ventures.
No one expected him to succeed, not even Yan Yiqing.
However, out of his unyielding loyalty to his boss, Yan Yiqing still followed and helped him.
And yet.
Just like no one ever expected, ZR Ventures became an industry legend!
Xi Chen Zhao demonstrated an acute business acumen, with astonishing returns on his investments and assets that doubled in value. In just a few years, he became a trailblazer in the domestic venture capital industry.
Although Xi Chen Zhao still serves as the CEO of the Xi family's Zsun Group, he has long prepared an alternative path for himself. With ZR Ventures alone, he has already become renowned in the business world, and it is only a matter of time before he reaches the pinnacle of the industry.
Many people do not understand Xi Chen Zhao's actions, but after following him closely for so many years, Yan Yiqing has become familiar with him and gradually guessed his thoughts.
Xi Chen Zhao won't compete for Zsun.
The future of Zsun will belong to Xi Tong Su; Xi Chen Zhao never even considered fighting her for it!
If Xi Tong Su wants to join the company, he will immediately hand over the CEO position to her without hesitation. If she doesn't, he will manage the company well for her, ensuring she lives a wealthy, comfortable, and unrestricted life.
Everything he does is for Xi Tong Su.
In response to this, Yan Yiqing has just one thing to say.
"Brother Xi, do you need another sister? I served as your lackey when we were kids, and now I'm your right hand! If needed, I can even cross-dress as a sister!"

As soon as Xi Chen Zhao opened the door, he was greeted with a tantalizing aroma of food.
Vegetables, braised meat, desserts, and soup...
Each delicious and fragrant dish was delicately served on a plate, being arranged on the dining table one by one by Tong Su.
Hearing the sound of Xi Chen Zhao opening the door, she excitedly waved towards upstairs, "Brother, come quickly! It's just the two of us at home today since Aunt Chen is not around!"
Xi Chen Zhao's eyes softened slightly as he walked downstairs.
"Have you finished your writing?"
"Yeah, mostly done. By the way, I finished the apple slices you cut for me. They were so sweet!"
Tong Su happily pulled out a chair, her eyes sparkling brightly. "I've never had an apple this sweet before. It tastes the best when my brother peels and slices it."
Xi Chen Zhao laughed.
"I wasn't aware that you're such a little flatterer."
Tong Su pulled out both their chairs and sat down next to Xi Chen Zhao, innocently stating, "I'm just telling the truth."
The Xi family's dining table wasn't large, as there weren't many members.
Compared to those long dining tables spanning several meters that you'd find in other wealthy households, theirs might seem simpler. However, when a few people gathered around this average table, it exuded a much warmer, home-like atmosphere.
Xi Chen Zhao didn’t immediately take a seat. Instead, he went to the kitchen and returned shortly with two glass cups - one white, one red.
The red one was placed in front of him and the white one in front of Tong Su.
Tong Su was shocked.
"You’re having red wine and I’m having milk?"
She exclaimed, "Can't the difference be less obvious?"
Xi Chen Zhao raised an eyebrow, "Is there a problem?"
"..." Tong Su pouted and reached for the milk cup, "No, there's no problem."
Her apparent discontent under an expression of grievance made Xi Chen Zhao feel like laughing even more. However, on the surface, he maintained his calm and unfazed demeanor.
He picked up his chopsticks, took a piece of rib, and tasted it. Suddenly, his movements froze.
"What's the matter?" Tong Su couldn't hide her nervousness as she carefully asked, "Is there something wrong with the rib?"
He glanced up, speaking in an indifferent tone, "Did Aunt Chen not make the meal tonight?"
