Chapter 1636: Chapter 1636: One of Her Dowries
Sure enough, Xie Nianjing let out a cold snort.
Gu Ziyou knew that the RNM company’s policies were even more stringent than Fengling Group’s, lacking any semblance of humanity.
Under the oppression of these two perfectionist bosses, especially with Xie Nianjing’s intolerance for any mistakes, the company employees were all in agony.
However, the compensation was extraordinary and matched their abilities, so many people still wanted to join RNM.
Headhunters rarely succeed in poaching from RNM.
"Ha, did I hit the nail on the head?" Gu Ziyou chuckled, watching Xie Nianjing’s very annoyed face, "Childish."
Xie Nianjing’s mouth twitched, unsure who was truly more childish.
Even such a childish sister could find a reliable husband—perhaps it’s the fortune of the foolish.
Yang Xiao just walked over and heard their conversation, finding the whole situation both comical and serious.
"You have a great sibling relationship," he grinned, showing his neat white teeth.
It was rare to see this Gu Family’s young master so speechless and frustrated.
He felt a burst of satisfaction inside.
"Vice President Yang, you should submit your design plans earlier. I will enforce a very tight schedule this time, and I hope you won’t be delayed again," Xie Nianjing spoke seriously in a cold voice, "Also, don’t use the excuse of your President Shen planning a wedding to delay. If your company can’t operate without President Shen, then there’s no point in us collaborating further."
After stating this, he didn’t even regard Yang Xiao’s expression and turned to leave.
Yang Xiao was speechless for a long time, clearly gritting his teeth and trying to hold it in.
He heard the kid was only sixteen years old, such an arrogant brat. But
"Youyou, even if the progress isn’t tightly compressed, it’s not to the point where the company can’t operate as he suggested, is it?"
Gu Ziyou shrugged, "That’s how he is."
Next to him, Gu Zimo casually stated, "It’s no big deal. Meet his demands, and he’ll have nothing to say. Nianjing can be a bit strict, but he’s not unreasonable."
Yang Xiao gave a forced smile, "Yes, he’s quite reasonable."
If he hadn’t heard about his usual demeanor, he would have thought it was a deliberate move to give his future brother-in-law a hard time.
Shen Lingfeng finished speaking with the government officials and turned around to see the subtle interactions.
"What’s going on?" he walked over to Gu Ziyou and glanced at Yang Xiao.
Gu Zimo chuckled, "It’s nothing, just a small matter. Nianjing lost a bet, so he decided to push your design timeline. They’ve been more stringent with these issues lately; he’s not the easiest to deal with."
Even with this acknowledgment from the elder brother, Yang Xiao realized there was no room for delay.
It meant yet another month of continuous overtime.
"Don’t be so glum. It’s actually a joke," Gu Zimo laughed, "This project was always meant as a gift—consider it... part of Youyou’s dowry."
Yang Xiao’s eyebrows rose high in surprise—so it’s part of the dowry.
Working himself to the bone, what on earth was he doing...

"What, Dad and Mom went on vacation abroad? No wonder they’re clueless about everything that’s been going on."
After the banquet, everyone arranged to meet at a hot spring resort.
Youyou leaned on the sofa, holding her phone, debating whether to inform her mom, but the phone itself suggested not making it a big deal.
"But I’ve already informed them to come back," Gu Zimo lazily reclined on the sofa, crossing his legs, "We’ll see if they return here, or..."
Shen Lingfeng raised his eyes slightly, "Make a trip to Manchester."
