Xu Xiaoyue—blessed with a voluptuous figure, a wasp-like waist, and long legs—had a face that was both innocent and seductive.
Unfortunately, her fake best friend had written her into a clich...
Chapter 217: Help me get a train ticket to the south
Xu Xiaoyue wanted to explain a few more words, so she put down her chopsticks and was about to speak.
Yan Ye grabbed the chopsticks and stuffed them directly into the girl's hands. "If you keep talking nonsense, don't even think about leaving."
He was too indulgent towards Xu Xiaoyue, which was why he allowed the girl to stab him in the heart again and again.
Xu Xiaoyue met the man's cold black eyes and retracted her fingertips.
She really wanted to explain.
Not allowed to talk, looking at the table full of delicious food, Xu Xiaoyue felt a little hungry.
The girl picked up her chopsticks and started eating without saying a word.
Seeing that Xu Xiaoyue was really just focused on eating and didn't even glance at him, the man's face darkened again.
He didn't know what he was angry about. The rage in his heart was growing one after another. He wanted to hug the girl from the dining table into his arms, pinch her rosy cheeks, and kiss her cherry red lips hard.
He would plunder all the air from the girl's mouth, and then slowly teach her to breathe.
He would not let go until the person's whole body went limp.
Just like this, time and time again, he broke down her psychological defenses and made her realize that she was the only one he could rely on.
The two of them finished their meal in such a low mood, and began what Yan Ye considered to be a cold war.
Xu Xiaoyue ate and drank as usual every day and didn't notice that Yan Ye was angry at all.
In her opinion, the man just spoke less when he sent her to school and did not touch her when they lay in bed together.
But this is not a bad thing for Xu Xiaoyue.
She is pregnant now and cannot have sex in the first three months. Yan Ye wants to be a gentleman, so she won't object.
"In terms of percentage, the profit for this quarter is 40%, which means a net profit of 2,000 yuan."
Lu Zhao said excitedly that he and Xu Xiaoyue set up this factory on a whim and did it without thinking.
I didn’t expect that the profit points would be beyond my imagination.
Xu Xiaoyue didn't reply for a long time. When Lu Zhao raised his head, he saw the girl looking like she was in a trance.
"School girl, school girl?"
After being shouted twice, Xu Xiaoyue came back to her senses. She subconsciously made a "hmm" sound and met the boy's concerned gaze.
"Sorry, I wasn't paying attention just now."
As Xu Xiaoyue spoke, two blushes appeared on her cheeks and she pursed her lips.
She wanted to listen carefully, but she couldn't help thinking about the baby in her belly.
According to the doctor, the baby is already two months old, but she is not noticeable because she is so thin.
But if the child is older, the Yan family will definitely know about the child’s existence.
She still remembered clearly what Liu Ye said last time. If she knew about the existence of the child, she might force her to have an abortion.
Whenever Xu Xiaoyue thought of this, she felt her stomach start to ache.
This child may be her only expectation.
"Junior, you look like you are worried about something." Lu Zhao said with concern.
The girl's cheeks looked flushed and pale, and she looked listless.
"Yes, I've encountered some difficulties recently." Being seen through by Lu Zhao, Xu Xiaoyue simply nodded and admitted it.
She took a sip of the hot water in front of her. Since she was pregnant, she refused to drink tea or coffee.
"You just said the net profit was 2,000 yuan. According to our proposed dividend distribution, should my share be 2,400 yuan?"
What she needs most now is money. After having a child, she needs money everywhere. Fortunately, she has a factory on hand, which can alleviate the urgent need.
"Yes, that's two thousand four."
Lu Zhao nodded and looked at the people again, "But according to our current factory production volume, we can definitely hire a few more workers and increase production."
"I have also found a few partners. As winter approaches, the profit from winter clothing will be even greater."
Xu Xiaoyue frowned, clenched her hands together, and struggled in her heart for a long time before she looked up at the person and spoke in a low voice.
"I'm sorry to say that though."
"But now I may not be able to run this factory with you anymore, and I have to withdraw the money."
After she finished speaking, she lowered her head and didn't even have the courage to look at Lu Zhao.
The factory was booming, and according to Lu Zhao's plan, they would make more and more money.
Maybe in the later stage, the small factory can become a big factory.
Xu Xiaoyue felt that it was embarrassing for her to get 60% of the shares when she had only drawn a few designs and made a few sets of clothes.
Now she has to take back her part.
The girl lowered her head, having already made up her mind that even if Lu Zhao wanted to scold her later, she would let the man scold her to his heart's content.
Lu Zhao was silent for a long time.
The two of them just sat there quietly until Xu Xiaoyue could no longer sit still. Then the man opposite suppressed his anger and spoke slowly.
"School girl, can you tell me why?"
If this happened to someone else, even if it was his own parents, if they refused to do such a good deal, Lu Zhao would definitely scold them to death.
When it came to Xu Xiaoyue, he was angry and confused, but he wanted to hear the girl's explanation.
Xu Xiaoyue lowered her head, her palms were about to be scratched by her fingers, and her face turned red.
"I'm sorry, I really need money right now. I really, really need it."
She had already made up her mind that since the child was not accepted by the Yan family, she would raise the child herself.
Yan Ye watched her too closely. After three months, when her belly got bigger, he would definitely find out that she was pregnant.
Xu Xiaoyue admitted that she was very cowardly and she didn't even dare to ask Yan Ye what he would do if he had a child.
Now that he has a better choice, Xu Xiaoyue is afraid that the ending will be the same as in her dream, and the man will dislike the child as a burden.
She could feel that Yan Ye was sincere to her now, but a person's sincerity could change rapidly.
After ten months of pregnancy, she didn't dare to gamble on this one in ten thousand possibility.
When Lu Zhao heard her say this, there was a hint of surprise on his face.
He didn't know Xu Xiaoyue's family background, but from the man driving the military jeep next to her, he could tell that she was definitely not short of money.
Lu Zhao wanted to ask a few more questions, but when his eyes met the girl's tense expression, he gave up the thought.
“Withdrawing investment now is not a wise option.”
"I will give you your money back. Are you planning to stop after you earn these two thousand four hundred dollars?"
Lu Zhao's expression was filled with regret that could not be concealed. The factory had a good future, but without Xu Xiaoyue's drawings, the clothes they designed would not be much different from those on the market and would not be selling as well as they were now.
It's not like Xu Xiaoyue hasn't struggled with this issue before. She finally managed to do some practical work and achieved a little success.
She was also reluctant to give up.
The girl's face was almost wrinkled into a ball, and she lowered her head and hesitated for a long time.
Closing the factory would not only make me feel sorry for all my previous efforts, but also for Lu Zhao's dedication and the workers in the factory.
"I really need money right now, and I can't take care of the factory. How about this, I'll take half of the net profit, and leave the rest in your hands. You can hire workers or expand the scale."
"In two days, I will give you all the designs I have on hand."
This is the best solution Xu Xiaoyue can think of.
Lu Zhao had no intention of making things difficult for Xu Xiaoyue. Although in this world men are the breadwinners and women are the homemakers, he still felt that women hold up half the sky and female comrades should also take control of the economic power in their own hands.
"OK."
Seeing Lu Zhao nod readily, Xu Xiaoyue's heart finally settled down. She scratched the corner of the table and said, "Actually, there is something else that may require your help."
"Can you get me a train ticket south?"
