Chapter 456 - 430: The Scene Is Too Beautiful
Yu Minglang spoke seriously, "This meat—what I mean is, I’ve already thought of a way to solve Liu Li’s problem."
"You?" Qian questioned, surprised that Yu Minglang could think of a solution that even she, a top psychologist, couldn’t.
"Stop doubting your man all the time!" Yu Minglang pinched her little nose again before sharing his thoughts with Qian.
"If Liu Li as a child doesn’t grow up, Mrs. Liu and her husband won’t get better, and Mrs. Liu still hasn’t recovered from the shock of Shuang’s death. If Liu Li follows in his brother’s footsteps, she’ll be uneasy just thinking about it. Besides, you can see Liu Li doesn’t really like the path he’s chosen; it’s more about rebellion."
How many teenagers really know what they want? Sometimes it’s just rebellion, thinking that they like something, but it’s not true.
"I think the same, but if Liu Li insists on it himself, what can we do?"
Here’s the crux of the problem: the teacher can’t forget the deceased eldest, while the second child is in a rebellious phase, keen to follow in his brother’s and father’s footsteps. But whenever the teacher sees Liu Li this way, he hates the master even more, making reconciliation between the old couple impossible.
It’s a series of interconnected problems, seemingly unsolvable.
"If he wants to work, let him experience it in the workplace. Our assessment in two days will allow him to join in."
"Your assessment? Can a child even do anything?" Qian was surprised.
Yu Minglang’s recruitment is akin to driving people to exhaustion. Even seasoned professionals struggle to cope, let alone a kid like Liu Li.
"A bit of stimulation is inevitable, but there won’t be any major psychological obstacles. With me watching, everything will be fine. I’ll give him a breakdown treatment. Just once will be enough. After that, he’ll avoid us, and this will also show him what his brother did—’admiration’ isn’t just spoken in words."
To deal with a rebellious youth, you must be a bit ruthless. Qian thought using this breakdown therapy here wasn’t a bad idea. She had used a similar method to subdue Chen Zilong, and now he feels nauseous at the thought of online games.
"But what if he not only completes your assessment but does it exceptionally well? What then?"
Although this possibility is small, it’s not impossible.
"If he can truly withstand the rigorous evaluation, then... letting it be is fine too. Anyone who can join our company won’t be a weakling at any position."
Yu Minglang came up with this idea after careful consideration.
Qian was suddenly enlightened. Right, there was such a solution! How could she not think of it?
The more complex a problem is, the simpler the solution often is.
"This kind of scenario simulation is something we use a lot, and I didn’t think of it. The root of the problem lies in his admiration for his father and brother; you all need to address it. You’re the young boss; you can just say a word and let Liu Li in to experience it."
"Actually, it wasn’t my decision. My dad made the call. Liu Li is, after all, Lone Wolf’s only brother, and my dad has always valued this matter greatly."
Qian cheerfully patted Yu Minglang on the shoulder, "Young man, you handled this well."
"How virtuous. Wait until I have some free time; I’ll give you a talking to. You’ve been a bit cocky lately."
"Afraid of you?"
Qian shook her head with a mischievous look. Yu Minglang followed her gaze.
Alright, got it.
This little troublemaker!
"So tomorrow, I’ll tell Liu Li that we work well together in this matter. Originally, my uncle didn’t agree, not wanting to offer Liu Li such an experience. But your call convinced him."
"You don’t mean...get the master to do the assessment with Liu Li?" Qian’s eyes widened in amazement—Yu Xiaoqiang really has what it takes to trip up his superior!
"Yes, that’s how I plan it. Mr. Liu has never accompanied him in so many years. Two nights and three days in the mountains should prove to be an emotional breakthrough for them, even if it just looks like a simple family outing."
The latter will involve a listed company’s assessment team creating endless problems—quite a special "outing."
Xiaoqiang’s way of selecting personnel is unique, introduced from abroad as a reality TV show, a joint radio station’s real-world workplace wilderness survival experience.
The radio broadcasts as conditions are simulated in the mountains, which must be resolved in three days.
It seems to have little to do with job entry, but each detail is set according to a psychologist’s recommendations. Reactions during the reality TV show reflect the participants’ personalities and their ability to adapt to the tremendous pressure of the workplace.
Yu Minglang thought about that scene and couldn’t help but chuckle, "Mei, when we have kids in the future, can I take her for an outing too? Let her sit on my shoulders; I’m the mountain dad, flying with her through the mountains~"
"...Please spare the child."
Qian imagined him carrying Xiaowei on his shoulders like a monkey, running wild over the mountains, pursued by a convoy of tanks, Xiaowei giggling on his back—it was too picturesque and frightening to contemplate...
"Would Mr. Liu willingly go through with it?" Qian thought Liu Li wouldn’t be like someone who sees fighting as parent-child amusement like Yu Minglang.
"I learned from you, coaxed my uncle by scaring him about Liu Li’s health, and he agreed. Mei, I’ve found that to be a successful psychologist, you must focus on a key point to really rake in money. It’s the same principle when our mom and sister-in-law treat patients."
"Oh?"
"Scare the patient—scare them hard along with their families. If they look like they are nouveau riche, you tell them this illness is incurable unless certain conditions are met, and they’ll listen to you whatever you say—of course, we’re upright folks and won’t actually do that."
He was only joking.
Qian rolled her eyes, "I should tell Aunt about this; she’ll hammer you with a small drill meant for mending bones."
To slander the sacred doctors in this way inviting trouble, it’s bold—there are three doctors in the family, and he dares to be so wild—if you count the eldest as well, that makes four doctors. Daring to be so reckless in a heap of doctors?
"Heh, I see my little Mei with a look revealing deep cunning, seeming like one who would drive up the asking price fiercely. Mei, do you all set prices without oversight, arbitrarily defining them?"
"They’re not regulated by them, but they’re not set randomly either. If you find me for treatment, it’s worth the money—but since meeting you, Xiaoqiang, I haven’t received any fees."
In her past life, Qian didn’t lack for fat sheep to fleece, once driving them into bankruptcy. However, she occasionally also offered affordable treatment to the economically average-working class, akin to charity.
She hadn’t really noticed until now—but since rebirth, from large cases to small ones, she had handled quite a few ailments, yet hadn’t earned any money? Heartache!
