Lin Yu knew the factory area where Da Tou worked and guessed that he must be at work at the moment, so she came to the gate to wait for him.

She didn't think about anything between men and women, after all, Da Tou was just a friend to her.

Occasionally, there are things that can't be said openly, but we still need to help each other out.

When Lin Yu arrived, it was right at the end of the workday, and the workers were coming out one after another.

Their factory uniforms were blue, and everyone wore the same thing, so Lin Yu couldn't tell who was the big head.

Fortunately, Da Tou noticed Lin Yu and walked towards her.

"Sister Yu, you're here..."

When Lin Yu waved to him, she noticed that there were several people following behind him.

She frowned, strode over, pulled Da Tou behind her, and snapped at the group, "What do you want?"

Could it be that they're ganging up to bully others?

Big Head was stunned for a moment before he noticed the other workers who had come with him.

The group looked equally confused: "Wait, what's going on? We're not bad people."

Lin Yu frowned and asked, "Then why are you following him?"

Upon hearing this, Da Tou finally understood and quickly stepped forward to say, "Sister Yu, it's a misunderstanding. These are my coworkers."

Lin Yu could easily tell that they were all wearing work clothes.

"Aren't they bullying you?"

Big Head shook his head: "No, they've been treating me quite well."

The older guy, Brother Duan, even wanted to introduce him to someone.

Brother Duan could also see that Da Tou knew this woman and wasn't trying to be a pervert.

He quickly apologized for misunderstanding, saying, "I'm so sorry, we thought..."

After hearing what they said, Da Tou said with emotion, "You are all so kind to me."

Fearing they might do something wrong and get caught, they even tried to persuade them.

Big Head felt that they really cared about him.

Brother Duan smiled and said, "Hey, it's nothing. Since you know each other, then it's fine. We'll go home first."

They were a little embarrassed, having actually misunderstood the other person.

As the group turned to leave, they heard the girl's clear voice: "Wait, comrades."

Duan turned around and heard her say, "It was all a misunderstanding. Thank you for your concern for Datou. Let us treat you to a meal."

Brother Duan quickly waved his hand and said, "That won't do. We didn't do anything, how can we let you treat us to a meal?"

The other workers also said they wouldn't go.

Lin Yu tugged at Da Tou and quickly said, "No way, if you don't go, you're disrespecting me. Let's go, it's my treat."

Since he adopted such a tough stance, the others couldn't very well refuse to give him face.

Brother Duan still said, "Then, just eat something simple, don't spend too much money."

Big Head said nonchalantly, "We'll talk about it when we get there."

"Okay, then I'll go. Wait a moment, I'll ask someone to tell my family."

Seeing that Brother Duan had agreed, the other workers had no choice but to go and tell their families as well.

Lin Yu led them to the state-run restaurant she had her eye on.

These men were all factory workers with good wages and benefits, and they would occasionally come to the state-run restaurant for a treat.

I am quite familiar with the dishes here.

Brother Duan said to Lin Yu, "The head chef at this restaurant is from the north. He makes delicious noodles. Let's just have a bowl of vegetarian noodles."

Vegetarian noodles are the cheapest dish here, costing 6 cents a bowl.

Lin Yu went to the front desk to order from the waiter, while the others and Da Tou sat at the table and waited.

He seemed particularly honest.

A coworker named Liu He scratched his head and said, "Why do I feel like I can't say anything in front of these women?"

This woman is very assertive; from the beginning until now, nothing she says has been refuted.

Big Head laughed and said, "That's why I call her 'sister,' she's much younger than me."

Brother Duan didn't ask Da Tou where he met the woman, but only asked, "What does she do for a living?"

Da Tou didn't know if Lin Yu would tell anyone, so he just dodged the question by saying, "You can ask her yourselves later."

Apart from Da Tou, only Brother Duan dared to talk to Lin Yu.

So when Lin Yu came back after ordering, Brother Duan asked her again.

Seeing that the others all followed his lead, Lin Yu raised an eyebrow: "Be the factory manager of a food factory."

The group looked on incredulously. Liu He forced a smile and said, "You're not kidding, are you?"

Lin Yu said speechlessly, "Why would I make such a joke?"

"But you're so young, how could you possibly be the factory manager? Our factory manager is an old man."

"Cough cough."

Seeing that he was speaking recklessly, Brother Duan quickly stopped him.

Lin Yu smiled and said, "I can't compare to your factory manager. Mine is a village-run factory, located in the countryside."

Brother Duan was very interested and asked her a lot of questions about the factory.

Lin Yu also told them, "We've opened a specialty store in Haicheng. If you're interested, you can go and take a look. It's on Jiangnan Road."

Worker Zhang Minsheng asked in surprise, "Is it the canned food seller?"

Lin Yu nodded: "Yes, you know?"

Several people looked at Zhang Minsheng, who said, "My wife went there, and it seems you guys are having a discount. She bought a can of food, and my daughter loves it."

Both parents work in their family, and they only have one daughter, so naturally they dote on her.

Zhang Minsheng saw his daughter begging her mother for more sugar water and asked her a couple of questions before he found out what was going on.

Lin Yu said with a smile, "There's no discount now, but if you still want to buy, you can mention my name and get an employee discount."

Their factory has a rule that employees can buy a certain number of items at employee prices each month.

This spot can also be used for family and friends.

The price is lower than the retail price in the store.

Zhang Minsheng was naturally delighted to hear this, and he even told his wife that he wanted to buy another can.

Saving money is always a good thing.

Liu and the others looked at Lin Yu expectantly. She smiled and said, "You can get a discount too. If you're interested, come and take a look. Our store will start selling New Year's goods next month."

It's already January in the Gregorian calendar, and next month will be the twelfth lunar month.

The store will sell New Year's gift packs and also have New Year's promotions.

Lin Yu told them in advance, just as a warm-up.

Brother Duan was very interested in this and said, "I'll take your sister-in-law to see it when the weekend comes."

"Table 3, come get your food." The waiter shouted at them.

Lin Yu heard the sound and was about to stand up.

Several men had already stood up: "We'll go, you just wait."

When Duan and his friends returned, their expressions became much more exaggerated: "Girl, why did you order so much?"

Lin Yu looked at it and said, "That's right. One bowl of vegetarian noodles, one serving of braised pork, one serving of roast chicken, and one plate of vegetables for each person."

Zhang Minsheng swallowed hard: "It's not a matter of too little or too little, it's that you ordered too much."

Lin Yu shook her head: "That's not right, there are five people here."

Da Tou naturally understood that they thought it was too expensive and were afraid that Lin Yu would spend too much money.

She then said, "You don't need to worry about money, Sister Yu has money."
