Ouyang Qi was not a complete loser. He had his own opinions; he just had no idea what to do.

“I understand now. Wow, you've really had it tough. So, what are your plans now?” Tang Jing asked.

“Plans? None.” The look in Ouyang Qi's gaze was blank.

“You can't remain aimless forever, right?”

“I've been a playboy for too long, and I can't get a job because I know nothing. Having fun and spending money extravagantly is what I do best,” Ouyang Qi declared with unabashed frankness.

“No,” Tang Jing insisted, “it's impossible that you know nothing, given your upbringing in a family like that. You just never had the chance to demonstrate your skills. You know, you should be more proactive. Return to work at your father's company and protect the family business.”

Taking note of Ouyang Qi's silence, Tang Jing was jubilant. I seem to have swayed Ouyang Qi. I'm about to succeed!

“My sister will never agree to this. She wants to keep me away,” Ouyang Qi said resignedly.

“You can fight for it.”

“How am I supposed to fight for it?”

“Tell her that you hope she would give you a job and an income to sustain yourself. If she refuses, you'll tell the reporters that she's edging you out and trying to take charge of the family. Having just ascended to the helm, she would not have settled in yet. Any threat to her position would force her to comply with your request. As to what sort of job she will give you, I do not know. But as long as you land a job at Sunshine Corporation, you would have succeeded halfway. You are the son of Mr. Ouyang, the chairman. As far as the veteran employees are concerned, you are still the heir. That much is a fact. Just keep your head down and inch your way forward. As long as you are patient, an opportunity will present itself. You only need to grab hold of it when the time comes, and you will be able to turn things around.”

Tang Jing's last sentence was said as much to herself as it was to Ouyang Qi.

She had spent years working hard and waiting for the right opportunity.

Occasionally, she would lose her patience and wonder if she should persevere when her opportunity to venture into high society still had not shown itself.

She used to tell herself that there would be an opportunity as long as she was willing to wait.

Ouyang Qi's predicament is both his and my opportunity. I can achieve my goals through him.
