Chapter 12

Mrs. Ji's words were not new, she would say them every once in a while, and Ji Jinsi still dealt with them with the same attitude.

He nodded slightly and said, "I understand."

Mrs. Ji was not surprised by her son's answer and said directly, "Don't try to put me off with words. As your mother, how could I not know what you are thinking? But, Jinsi, let me tell you, your father is old, and it's time for him to step down and hand over the Ji family to you. But the huge Ji Group is not just controlled by your father, but also by the shareholders."

"Do they dare to have opinions about my work ability?" Ji Jinsi said calmly.

He joined Ji's right after graduation, starting as a clerk and now has almost full control of Ji's company. No one dares to question his ability.

The Ji family's current revival is also closely related to him. Ji Jinsi is very confident about this matter.

"Of course I'm not talking about work, but you're still alone, without a family or children. How can you expect the shareholders to trust you with such a large Ji Group?"

Mrs. Ji’s words made Ji Jinsi confused. What does being in charge of a company have to do with being married and having children?

"How come I don't know that whether he can take charge of the company now depends on whether he has a child?" Ji Jinsi asked back.

Mrs. Ji was speechless after hearing what Ji Jinsi said. After a while, she said, "I know you young people don't care about these things, but those shareholders are old-fashioned. It's hard to change their minds. Besides, are you never going to get married in this life? You are the only one left in our Ji family. Do you want to make our Ji family extinct?"

Mrs. Ji’s words were very serious, and Ji Jinsi did not dare to refute them.

"So, you'll have to get married sooner or later, so why not get married sooner rather than later? Find a gentle, kind, and virtuous woman to be your wife, so you can also find someone to keep me company."

As Mrs. Ji spoke, she revealed her purpose.

"I think Yanran is a good choice. Not only does she have a good family background, she's also beautiful and gentle, making her a very suitable wife. Since you can't find someone you like right now, why not accept Yanran?"

Mrs. Ji grew up under the protection of her family. She was simple-minded and had no idea what Zhao Yanran was thinking, not to mention that Zhao Yanran was good at disguising herself.

However, Ji Jinsi has been in the business world for many years and has seen all kinds of people. Zhao Yanran's disguise is too easy for him.

He would never marry such a woman with impure intentions.

However, when Mrs. Ji mentioned these conditions, a person suddenly appeared in Ji Jinsi's mind.

Ye Qingli.

She has a good appearance and a gentle personality. When she is with me, she will never ask too many questions. Although her family background is not as good as Zhao Yanran's, I don't care about her family background at all.

Thinking in this way, Ye Qingli might be a suitable candidate for a wife that he would be satisfied with.

"Jinsi, what do you think? Mom said this for your own good. Yanran is good in all aspects and is very suitable for you." Mrs. Ji continued to persuade.

"No need, I already have a candidate." Ji Jinsi said as if he had made up his mind.

"What?" Mrs. Ji was very surprised. "Who is it? Why haven't I heard of any women around you?"

"Don't bother you with this matter. I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."

As Ji Jinsi left the Ji family, he picked up his phone and called Li Kun.

"Hey, Li Kun, I remember you were going to Mocheng to sign a contract? I happened to be free recently, so I went in your place... I don't have any thoughts, I'm just worried about you."

After Ji Jinsi finished speaking, he ignored Li Kun's smile on the other end of the phone and hung up.

——Yuyi Village——

Ji Jinsi’s previous appearance was just a small episode, and Luo Qingli quickly put it behind him and devoted himself to the production and promotion of the new series of perfumes.

She put the new series of five perfumes on major shopping platforms, and soon, thousands of orders came in.

The factory had already pre-produced a portion of the perfume to ensure sufficient supply, but she still underestimated the enthusiasm of Mozhu's fans, and the stock was soon consumed.

On social media, the news that Mozhu had launched a new series of perfumes spread like a virus and quickly became a hot topic.

After all, it is a new series that is released only once a year, and the fans have been waiting for it for a long time.

"Look what I found! There's a new item on Mozhu! I'm so tired of waiting for it every day to refresh. I want to be the first to find it!"

"No matter what it is, place an order for one set first. If it's made by Mozhu, it must be a top-notch product!"

"This year's collection is the Rainwater series. The name alone suggests it's perfect for summer!"

"How did the perfumer know I was in need of summer perfume? I'm going to buy a ton!"

"I've already ordered the [Rainwater] series perfume. Those who want to review it, please wait. I'll kick everyone when it arrives!"

The originally quiet community suddenly became boiling like a frying pan, and the discussion level soared along with sales.

Luo Qingli doesn't have the time to care about these comments now. The sales volume is much higher than she expected, so she has to go to the factory to keep an eye on it in person.

In order to meet the needs of consumers, Luo Qingli found a perfume processing factory in Mocheng, responsible for the production and bottling of perfume. Of course, the formula is still in her hands, and she needs to mix it before the factory can carry out the aging, freezing, filtering, coloring, bottling, and finished product inspection processes.

After all, for a perfume brand, the formula is extremely important, and it can be said to be the soul of a brand.

Judging from the current sales, the perfume she prepared in advance is definitely not enough, and she needs to prepare more.

When Luo Qingli finished everything and came back, the sky was full of stars. She walked on the path in the yard under the moonlight and saw that the light was on in the house.

When I opened the door, I saw a man and a cat playing happily, and Aunt Lin, Luo Qingli's nanny, was watching over them.

Luo Qingli has become very accustomed to this. She likes to have someone waiting for her at home when she returns home.

Aunt Lin came over and took her bag and said to her, "Have you eaten yet? If not, I'll make you a bowl of noodles."

Luo Qingli shook his head and said, "No, I ate before I came back."

Xiaobao turned around when he heard the voice and found that it was Luo Qingli who came back. He happily came over with the kitten in his arms, "Sister, you're back!"

"Yes, I'm back. Did Xiaobao have fun playing with the ice cream?" Luo Qingli reached out and touched Xiaobao's head.

When Bingchuan saw this, he called out to Luo Qingli a few times as if as a hint.

Luo Qingli was stunned for a moment, then smiled and touched the kitten's head.

Why does she feel that this little black cat is also a clever little ghost?

Luo Qingli sat down on the sofa beside him, relaxed his tired body, and watched Xiaobao playing with the kitten.

Aunt Lin brought over a cup of red date and wolfberry tea.

Luo Qingli has a cold body, so this kind of health-preserving tea is always available at home.

"Qingli, calculate the days. You should go into the mountains in two days." Aunt Lin reminded.

Luo Qingli looked at the calendar and realized that time passed so quickly. She had been busy all this time and almost forgot about this matter.

She thought for a moment and said, "Well, it just so happens that I have nothing to do tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, so I'm going into the mountains tomorrow. Auntie, I'd like to trouble you to help me prepare."

"Okay, I'll go and sort it out for you now."

Every June, Luo Qingli would take time to go into the mountains, because in the valley deep in the mountains behind her, evening primrose grew all over the mountains.

June is the most active time period for evening primrose to bloom. The pale pink flowers slowly bloom as the moon rises, emitting a delicate fragrance.

Luo Qingli also discovered that valley by chance. The flowers blooming all over the mountain under the moon and the lingering fragrance gave Luo Qingli a great shock.

Therefore, at this time of year, she would go to the mountains to stay overnight and deeply experience the inspiration brought to her by the beautiful scenery and fragrance.

This time, she also decided that the next series of perfumes would be based on evening primrose.

"Sister, where are you going? Xiaobao wants to go too!" Xiaobao is a smart guy. When he heard the conversation between Luo Qingli and Aunt Lin, he ignored the ice cream and ran over to ask.

Although it is rare to see ferocious beasts in this era, there are inevitably poisonous insects and snakes in the mountains. Xiaobao is still young, and Luo Qingli will not let him go to such an environment. If something really happens, she will not forgive herself.

So, Luo Qingli looked at Xiaobao and said with a smile: "Sister is just going to the back mountain. You are still young now. When you grow up, sister will take you there."

Luo Qingli spoke seriously, and Xiaobao was sensible. He nodded and said, "Yeah, when Xiaobao grows up, sister will definitely take Xiaobao there. Pinky promise."

Luo Qingli smiled and made a promise with Xiaobao, saying, "Sister will bring back some beautiful flowers for Xiaobao."

Children are the easiest to coax. After hearing Luo Qingli's words, they happily went to play with the ice cream again.

"Qingli, I have prepared everything. Please check it later." Aunt Lin came out and said.

Aunt Lin had been helping her prepare for two years. She trusted Aunt Lin very much and nodded to indicate that she understood.

"Are you planning to go alone this time? How about letting Pingyu accompany you? Or should I go to the village to ask someone to accompany you? I'm afraid it's not safe at this late hour." Aunt Lin has taken care of Luo Qingli and Xiaobao for three years, and cares about them both as if they were family members.

Luo Qingli shook her head and said, "Auntie, don't worry. The back mountain is not a place that no one goes to. Haven't I already contracted the entire back mountain? The road to the valley is also cleared, so there is no danger."

In order to prevent this natural beauty from being destroyed, Luo Qingli simply contracted all the mountains in this area. The evening primrose in the valley remained wild and was not interfered with.

So, logically, even if she went to the valley at night, no one could harm her.

Aunt Lin thought about it and felt that it made sense, so she didn't say anything else.

After coaxing Xiaobao to sleep, Luo Qingli went to check the things he needed to bring tomorrow.

If you need to stay overnight in the valley, you should bring a tent, portable cooking utensils, convenience foods, drinking water and anti-mosquito bite medicine.

Most importantly, there is a self-defense electric baton to prevent the sudden appearance of animals such as wild boars.

Only after putting all these things into the backpack did Luo Qingli rest.

The next day, after lunch, Luo Qingli prepared to set off.
