While others face unemployment upon graduation, Chen Jinyue faced bankruptcy. Waking up one day, she inherited millions in debt. Her younger brother absconded with all the cash, fleeing abroad. To ...
Chapter 228 I want one too. I want to be the godfather.
Three o'clock in the afternoon.
The two met at the mall. Mr. Zhou was dressed handsomely in a dark gray coat, which made him look tall and slender.
Standing there, he looks like the male lead in a Korean drama.
Chen Jinyue's eyes flashed with surprise, and he smiled widely, "Boss Zhou looks so handsome today!"
Zhou Yichuan lowered his eyes and glanced at her, "How handsome is he? Tell me more."
Chen Jinyue, “…”
This is the first time I have heard such an excessive request.
The two of them talked as they walked into the mall.
"What are you buying? In large quantities? Why not get it directly from the source?" Zhou Yichuan wondered.
Chen Jinyue said, "The others are taken from the source, but this one is very special, I have to pick it myself."
Zhou Yichuan glanced down at her and pursed his thin lips slightly.
He didn't ask any more questions.
It was just a thought that couldn't help but pop up -
She suddenly asked him to accompany her shopping, and started to praise him sweetly as soon as they met. Could it be that she wanted to ask him for help in choosing things suitable for men?
Her brows unconsciously frowned, and then she looked at Chen Jinyue and walked into a maternity and baby store.
He paused at the door and reached out to pull her arm.
"Wrong way?"
“No.”
Chen Jinyue answered innocently.
Zhou Yichuan glanced at the store and asked, "What are you buying here?"
Chen Jinyue said honestly, "Actually, I don't know either. I need to consult first."
Zhou Yichuan, “…”
A service staff came over quickly and asked what I needed.
"What preparations are needed for having a baby? Both adults and children need to prepare." Chen Jinyue put forward his needs.
The service staff understood what was going on and realized that she was a new mother.
She first recommended a complete maternity package to her.
Then it introduced some diapers, milk powder and complementary foods, toiletries, daily necessities, clothing, toys, etc.
Chen Jinyue listened very carefully and nodded from time to time.
My mind automatically screens what they need and what is useless...
Clothing is needed and should be complete all year round.
Daily necessities, including baby bathtubs, washbasins, water cups, bibs, bath towels, small blankets, etc. are all needed.
Baby stroller, Chen Jinyue was very hesitant.
A stroller is not very necessary and cannot be pushed, but if you need to go out occasionally, you can take the child out and put him in the stroller to get some fresh air, right?
They can now make their own beds...
never mind!
Buy it first!
Whether it is useful or not, and whether it can be used, we will know when the time comes!
Zhou Yichuan felt uncomfortable at first, but listened very attentively in the end. He was surprised that there were so many little things.
The scene was originally quite harmonious until the service staff started to introduce mother's products, and even took the initiative to introduce some things to him.
She explained politely, "Mom is not feeling well physically and is emotionally vulnerable right now, so I need Dad's help in many areas. I'll teach you briefly first. If you can't remember, you can ask the doctor or the babysitter later..."
She listened to Chen Jinyue's generous words of "two copies here, two copies there", and became more patient with big customers.
Provide your own professional opinions.
Zhou Yichuan looked slightly embarrassed.
But he didn't refute.
Until the other party took out disposable underwear and maternity paper.
Others froze...
When Chen Jinyue heard the word "Dad", she finally realized why she always talked to Zhou Yichuan from time to time, and began to explain, "Sorry, you can just introduce him to me, he is not..."
"Go on, how do you use this?"
Zhou Yichuan interrupted her, and immediately became mentally strong, and took the initiative to ask the service staff.
The service staff looked at this and that and felt something was wrong.
But she didn't ask any more questions and continued to introduce patiently.
Chen Jinyue, “…”
Her cheeks felt hot.
It’s okay when you don’t know you’re being misunderstood, but when you know you’re being misunderstood and still continue to do so, she’s a little bit unable to keep calm.
Quickly choose what you want, leave your address, and evacuate with your friends.
…
I came out and found a quiet coffee shop.
Chen Jinyue sat down and ordered, then sent a message to Yu Jianing.
Girls should be more careful.
In addition, she had taken the initiative to say that the antique shop was not doing much business, and that she could be called upon for any errands, as she wanted to add more work.
So Chen Jinyue listed to her all the necessary things that the service staff had just introduced and that she had written down.
For example, milk powder, bottles, diapers, bathtubs, washbasins, small blankets, small clothes, etc.
Consumables are purchased in three-month quantities based on thirty-eight portions.
You need clothes for all four seasons.
After Zhou Yichuan finished placing the order, he watched her tapping away on her phone and suddenly asked, "Who are you buying these for?"
Chen Jinyue didn't even raise his head. "My godson or daughter."
The fingers kept moving, and the voice continued, "I prefer it to be a daughter. Of course, a son is not to be rejected."
In that period, giving birth to a girl would bring high status, but you couldn't favor a son either.
So the toys she bought were for both boys and girls.
"Goddaughter?" Zhou Yichuan repeated these three words, "Then I want one too. I want to be a godfather."
Chen Jinyue's hands trembled, and the awkward atmosphere that she had just tried to ignore was brought out again. She raised her eyes and glared at him, "You don't even know me!"
Zhou Yichuan said confidently, "I know you just by introducing you."
Chen Jinyue was silent, "..."
"Is it inconvenient? Is it your mysterious client? But isn't your client a man? Since he is a man, why can't I be his godfather?"
“…”
Chen Jinyue was impressed by his logic.
Just because the client is a man, does that mean he can be the godfather?
What about cause and effect?
Putting down the phone, she brought up business, "You said you wanted to discuss something with me about the manor?"
Zhou Yichuan glanced at her with dissatisfaction in his eyes. Just then the coffee came, and he paused and got back to business.
"There's a rumor going around that Xiaozhu Village will be listed as a key development village this year."
“???”
Chen Jinyue had thought that there would be support, but he didn't expect it to come so soon.
With support, surrounding industries and supporting facilities will also develop rapidly.
In the current situation, it actually makes her feel quite insecure.
Stirring the coffee in her cup, she suddenly said, "Let's have a meeting tonight. Let's expand some more industries and take control of important locations in the surrounding area."
Then her going in and out or transporting things wouldn't be under other people's eyes...
"What a coincidence, I thought so too, but someone is more informed than us and acts faster than us." Zhou Yichuan said calmly.
Chen Jinyue, "Who is it???"
Zhou Yichuan: "I didn't find anything."
This answer stunned Chen Jinyue on the spot.
When they were choosing the site, they were actually being targeted by someone, but the site they chose was too unpopular, so the matter was left unresolved.
Her original intention was to build a remote little castle for herself, and she never thought of it as a mobile economic center!
Seeing her worried look, Zhou Yichuan kindly comforted her, "Look at the bright side. Your trading partners are not ordinary people. The Forestry Bureau and the State Administration of Traditional Chinese Medicine will not let any accidents happen in the transaction."
"To change our thinking, the gathering of so many industries is beneficial to our estate and to Xiaozhu Village as well."
She just said that she might need to be more careful about some of the things she wanted to do or choose a different address.
Chen Jinyue felt that it made sense and was comforted.
But he wasn't completely comforted, and he waited a few seconds seriously before asking, "Are you done?"
Zhou Yichuan, “???”
"I'm just afraid that you'll comfort me and then suddenly stab me."
“…”
What a terrible image he had in her mind!
