Rebirth in the 80s: Becoming a Tycoon, Wooing a Husband, and Getting Rich

Grew up in an orphanage, with average looks, and worked tirelessly for 30 years, accumulating six million in savings. Just as she finally achieved financial freedom without spending a dime, Su Yan ...

Chapter 173 Affection

Su Yan knew what she was thinking, and after a moment of silence, she said, "Okay, then let's go back and discuss it with Uncle Tang. Sister Caixia, if you don't want to take the risk, you must tell me. I don't want to ruin our relationship over this business."

Upon hearing this, Feng Caixia's face instantly turned bright red!

She glared at Su Yan angrily and said irritably, "What do you take me for? I'm worried about the business, but I trust you. Are you trying to embarrass me to death?"

Honestly, she had no intention of withdrawing her shares!

"Sister Caixia, I'm saying this to tell you that whether you withdraw your shares or not, it won't hurt our relationship, and I have no reason to drag you into taking risks with me," Su Yan explained helplessly.

In business, luck is good, but you also need the ability.

She wasn't 100% sure about everything, but she was absolutely confident she could run the restaurant well.

Moreover, she was able to buy such a large restaurant in Yuexiu District for 650,000 yuan. Even if she stopped running the restaurant in a decade or so, she could still make three or four times that amount by reselling it!

So opening a restaurant is a win-win situation for her no matter what.

She wouldn't let Sister Caixia and Uncle Tang lose money either.

"You silly girl." Feng Caixia tapped her forehead, looking at her with a helpless expression.

Su Yan is too honest.

The girl's kindness deeply moved her; she felt like she was with a relative who wasn't related by blood, yet was even better than a blood relative.

"Let's not talk about that. Shall we still check out the Garden Restaurant tomorrow?"

Su Yan shook her head. "When I came out of Dian Dian Sheng Hui, I glanced at them and they were all pretty much the same. There was no need to waste time."

The Garden Restaurant is located diagonally opposite Dian Dian Sheng Hui, isn't that a great opportunity to steal business?

"Shall we go back tomorrow?" Qiu Xiaorou said, "Why doesn't Boss Su go and visit the medical university beforehand? He can familiarize himself with it."

"University is four years long, so we have plenty of time to get to know each other. Let's go shopping in Guangzhou tonight, buy some gifts to take back, and then take the 8 o'clock train home tomorrow."

Feng Caixia had no objection; she preferred to stay in familiar places.

Perhaps if she were ten years younger, she would have Su Yan's drive.

Qiu Xiaorou hesitated and said, "Boss Su, I want to go out to see an old friend. I'll be back soon. I'll buy the ticket at the station on my way back. Is it alright if you two stay here?"

Su Yan thought that she must know people in Guangzhou, so she readily agreed, "Sure, no need to rush back. You can catch up with your friends while Caixia and I go to the mall."

"Okay, thank you, boss."

Qiu Xiaorou tidied her clothes and went out.

Because she wasn't full, Su Yan called the front desk and ordered two servings of minced meat rice noodles.

After they had eaten and drunk their fill, they each went about their own business.

Feng Caixia is reading the restaurant business plan written by Su Yan.

Su Yan was drawing a sketch on the side, and the time passed quietly like that.

Her hands felt sore and weak, but she had finished drawing twenty designs.

Pulling back the curtains to look at the sky, Su Yan said, "Sister Caixia, I'm going to make a phone call. We'll go out after I'm done."

Feng Caixia knew without guessing who she was calling.

Finally, Su Yan left the house with a blush on her face, enduring someone's meaningful gaze.

Although she has an open mind, she is still an 18-year-old girl who can be shy!

She walked up to the telephone and skillfully dialed the number she knew by heart.

"beep……"

After a few seconds of continuous ringing, the call was finally answered.

"Ayan?" The man's voice was deep and magnetic, with a hint of uncertainty.

Su Yan felt her face suddenly burn, cursed herself for being so weak, and bit her lip as she replied, "It's me, what are you doing?"

"If I said I was thinking of you, would you believe me?"

She glared at him, her face flushed, and scolded, "You filthy scoundrel! How come you're getting more and more glib?"

Hearing the girl's angry voice, Jiang Jingxing on the other end of the phone could imagine her flustered appearance and couldn't help but chuckle, "Every word I said came from the bottom of my heart, please see for yourself, Comrade Su Yan!"

Su Yan snorted coldly, "If I can't identify you, who can guess what you're thinking?"

"You can get it appraised when you come to Beijing."

"I won't look for you even if I go," she muttered to herself.

Jiang Jingxing twirled the pen in his hand, raised his eyebrows and smiled, "Then I'll come find you, okay?"

"……good."

There was nothing she could do; she couldn't resist this man's smile and gentleness. She didn't know what kind of bewitching drug he had used.

Have you gone back to Lanzhou?

"Not yet, my train is tomorrow morning." Su Yan thought for a moment and then asked, "How's my older brother doing?"

So much time has passed, surely we should have some clues by now?

Jiang Jingxing paused for a moment before saying, "There's been progress."

Upon hearing this, Su Yan didn't press the matter further.

After all, the lesson from last time is still fresh in our minds. It's not too late to ask when we get to Beijing. It would be best if we could go home with my older brother.

Jiang Jingxing said aggrievedly, "You didn't even ask me if I was okay. We haven't seen each other for so many days, you haven't even forgotten what I look like, have you?"

Su Yan: ...Not really.

"I was just about to ask you what you like to eat? I'll cook it for you and send it to you when I get home."

Hearing this, the man immediately felt relieved. "I like everything you make."

"What about dietary restrictions?"

"No, I'm not a picky eater."

"..."

How can we continue this conversation?

Su Yan stomped her foot in annoyance.

This man is really bad with words; why does she always have to find topics to talk about?

This was her first time dating; she was a young woman getting married.

"Ayan, when is your birthday?" the voice on the other end of the phone suddenly asked.

Su Yan replied subconsciously, "The thirteenth of the twelfth lunar month, what's wrong?"

"Let's get married next year, okay? You'll be 19 next year."

"Buzz—!"

Su Yan felt her mind go completely blank. The surrounding sounds became quieter, and the man's words, "Let's get married next year, okay?" kept echoing in her ears. The man's voice was like a spell on her, forcing a surge of heat to rush to her brain.

The word "okay" was on the tip of her tongue when her rationality suddenly returned. Her eyes widened, and she angrily exclaimed, "No way! I'm only 19 years old, and you already want to tie me down? You old ox eating young grass, you filthy scoundrel!!"

Jiang Jingxing's face darkened when he heard "not good," but after hearing what she said next, he was both annoyed and amused. "Ayan, do you think I'm too old?"

"Me!" Su Yan was speechless.

She didn't think he was old!

“That’s not what I meant. We’ve only known each other for a short time, and I’m not mentally prepared yet. Also, I’m going to university for four years, and even if we get married, I don’t want children.”

She's still so young, I don't want to be tied down, the child must be born after she has made a name for herself.

Pshaw, she doesn't want to get married either!

Su Yan's thoughts were in a jumbled mess, and she got herself completely lost in them.
