After setting a time and chatting for a few more minutes, Meng Zihan and Liu Mingxuan got up to say goodbye and went back to the workshop.
Meng Zihan returned to the vegetable preparation room, found Meng Xueyun who was picking vegetables, and pulled her aside.
"Auntie, Deputy Director Liu invited me to dinner tonight. I won't be eating at home tonight."
Upon hearing this, Meng Xueyun looked up and asked in confusion, "Which Deputy Director Liu?"
"Who else could it be but Deputy Director Liu? It's Liu Mingxuan from the machine repair workshop!"
Meng Zihan said casually, but the corners of her mouth couldn't help but turn up slightly.
Meng Xueyun put down the dishes in her hand, grabbed Meng Zihan's hand, and asked excitedly, "Why would he suddenly invite you to dinner? He's such a good catch, so many girls want to date him!"
Meng Zihan lowered her head and pursed her lips.
Those female workers were rude and barbaric; how could they compare to her, a well-educated, reasonable, and thoughtful college-bound student?
Liu Mingxuan, a graduate student, is well-informed and naturally recognized her uniqueness and appreciated her distinctive temperament.
Meng Xueyun asked impatiently, "Tell me quickly, how did you two end up together?"
Meng Zihan didn't hide anything and recounted her previous encounter with Liu Mingxuan.
Of course, the detail of her secretly crying was omitted.
She was eager to tell Meng Xueyun, hoping that through her, Ye Zhenghua would also know about this.
Ye Zhenghua must know Liu Mingxuan. With this connection, Ye Zhenghua would no longer dare to mistreat her.
Upon hearing this, Meng Xueyun smiled broadly, her eyebrows and eyes relaxing completely.
"I think that Deputy Director Liu is probably interested in you! He's a rare talent, handsome, a graduate student, and became a deputy director at such a young age. His future is definitely bright. If you could get together with him, that would be a fantastic thing!"
She whispered again, "I think he's even better than Gu Yifei."
Although Gu Yifei is handsome and comes from a well-off family, he is still young and not very reliable.
Gu Yifei's mother always looked at her with disdain, and Xiaohan would definitely suffer after marrying into the family.
A mature, stable, and career-minded man like Liu Mingxuan is more suitable for a life together.
Moreover, he lives alone in Jiangcheng City, so Xiaohan won't have to live with her in-laws after marrying him.
It's absolutely perfect!
Meng Zihan felt quite disappointed after hearing her words.
Her feelings for Gu Yifei were much deeper.
Meng Xueyun, however, was impatient and said to her, "Go home early today, dress up nicely, and try to leave a good impression."
After saying that, he felt it wasn't appropriate, so he made a decision: "It's inconvenient for you to go alone, so I'll help you. Let's take an hour off and go home early."
"Is it necessary? Making it too complicated might make people feel that we're losing face and that they're looking down on us." Meng Zihan hesitated.
"Of course it's necessary. He's the one who's taking the initiative to approach you, so you need to show your commitment. What if you're indifferent and he thinks you're not interested and backs out?"
She tugged at Meng Zihan, "You have no experience with this, so you have to listen to me. I'll ask for leave right now and make sure you look gorgeous, so much so that Deputy Director Liu won't be able to take his eyes off you."
She sighed and said with emotion, "If you could really marry Deputy Director Liu, your life would be secure, and your aunt could finally rest easy."
Meng Zihan lowered her head shyly: "Auntie, what are you talking about? He just invited me to dinner, it's not like we're getting married yet."
"Everything is difficult at the beginning, but once you get off to a good start, everything else will be much easier."
Meng Xueyun excitedly asked for an hour's leave, and as soon as the time was up, she took Meng Zihan home.
When Meng Xueyun was a housewife, she studied makeup techniques out of boredom and gained a lot of experience.
Although the cosmetics were few and of low quality, they still managed to give Meng Zihan a beautiful makeover using the available materials.
When Meng Zihan looked in the mirror, her complexion was indeed much better.
Especially her eyes; after applying eyeliner and eyeshadow, they instantly became big and bright, full of affection, as if they could speak.
I'm afraid no man could resist that.
"Auntie, your makeup is so beautiful," Meng Zihan couldn't help but praise.
"Of course, I figured this out after many years of research."
Meng Xueyun was anything but modest. She took a step back, looked at Meng Zihan, and started thinking about what clothes she should wear.
"You still have to wear a skirt and a pair of high heels. A woman only looks good in high heels."
Meng Xueyun pondered for a moment, then clapped her hands, "That red long-sleeved dress of yours. The bright color of the dress will best complement your good complexion, and I guarantee it will catch Deputy Director Liu's eye!"
"But..." Meng Zihan hesitated, "Isn't it a bit too thin?"
It's already late autumn, and the temperature has dropped a bit these past few days, so many people have put on down jackets.
Wearing such a thin dress at night will definitely be cold.
"Aren't you going to eat? Just stay inside, how cold can it get? If you're cold, just eat more, you'll warm up quickly. Just bear with it, it'll only be a few hours. You must perform well tonight and try to win over Deputy Director Liu!"
"You're lucky. If you marry him, he'll definitely become the factory manager very soon, and you'll be the factory manager's wife."
Meng Xueyun earnestly advised Meng Zihan, full of anticipation.
She could almost see the day when Meng Zihan would marry into a wealthy family and achieve great success.
Meng Zihan bit her lip, feeling quite pleased with Meng Xueyun's words.
She has that ability.
It was because she came to the Ye family that Ye Zhenghua was able to rise from a small team leader to the workshop director.
