Ignoring Ye Xue, who was red-faced with anger, Cui Baoxiang looked helplessly at He Houfa, then at Mu Jingsheng, and then at Qin Zheng and Ye Yun standing behind Mu Jingsheng.
At this moment, he also learned the identities of the others.
Then……
He turned and ran!
As he fled in disarray, he didn't forget to say, "Uncle He! You and Boss Mu can continue chatting. I have to go now!"
call out!
They vanished without a trace in the blink of an eye.
Everyone stared in disbelief, utterly astonished as they looked in the direction Cui Baoxiang had left.
Ye Xue was stunned, as if she were a statue.
It took her a while to react, and she hurriedly called out, "Brother Baoxiang! Brother Baoxiang, wait for me!"
She hurriedly chased after Cui Baoxiang, not forgetting to turn around and glare fiercely at Ye Yun: "Ye Yun! If my marriage with Cui Baoxiang falls through because of you, I will never forgive you. Do you believe I will hang myself in front of your house!"
Ye Yun: "..."
No, are you alright?
All that remained in her sight was Ye Xia's hurried departure. Ye Yun's eyes twitched, her expression indescribable.
Seeing Ye Xue and Cui Baoxiang leave, the restaurant manager hurriedly flattered Mu Jingsheng with a smile: "President Mu, it was my oversight. Don't worry, I will retrain the staff, and I will deal with the person involved appropriately. This kind of thing will never happen again!"
Mu Jingsheng snorted coldly.
He glanced at the foreman from before and scoffed, "That's for the best."
"Don't worry, don't worry," Lao Wu said, bowing and scraping, as he escorted Mu Jingsheng and the others back to their private room. "Mr. Mu, please continue your meal. I'll have the restaurant prepare some of our signature dishes for you later, so you can also try them out..."
And so, everyone returned to their private room.
As the door to the private room closed, Ye Yun saw Lao Wu turn around and reprimand the manager from earlier.
The person who had been so arrogant and servile earlier must have been a supervisor. Not long after, the sound of Lao Wu yelling at that person to pack up and leave could be heard from outside the private room.
Inside the private room, He Houfa and Mu Jingsheng chatted warmly and lively.
He Houfa rushed over as soon as he heard that Mu Jingsheng had come to Jinqiao.
For Jinqiao County, Mu Jingsheng is like a god of wealth, a big boss who can donate tens of thousands of yuan to the county with a wave of his hand. How could he not come to see him for the sake of the county's development?
After exchanging pleasantries with Mu Jingsheng, he didn't forget to have a drink with Qin Zheng and Ye Yun.
Since Ye Yun couldn't drink alcohol, she substituted tea for wine and addressed He Houfa as "Uncle He," which was her way of formally greeting him.
He Houfa patted his chest and said, "Director Ye, don't worry. With our friendship, if you encounter any problems in Jinqiao County in the future, just come to me. I'll do everything I can to help you."
"Thank you, Uncle He."
Ye Yun smiled gently, raised her hand, and offered He Houfa another cup of tea instead of wine.
Mu Jingsheng chuckled and asked them to sit down. He patted He Houfa on the shoulder and said casually, "Old He, there really is something I need your help with."
He Houfa quickly replied, "Just tell me, I'll do whatever I can!"
"Since you put it that way, I won't beat around the bush with you anymore. Do you still remember what I told you about the provincial capital?"
"this……"
Upon hearing the name of the Liu family in the provincial capital, He Houfa's face showed a hint of embarrassment. "Brother, this matter isn't really a big deal, but to be honest, I'm just from a county town. I'm really not qualified to handle things in the provincial capital..."
Mu Jingsheng chuckled: "Just tell me, isn't my daughter from your county?"
He Houfa said, "That's for sure."
Mu Jingsheng's daughter is from the county he governs. Not only can she bring resources from Mu Jingsheng to his county, but she also makes him very proud!
Hey, the daughter of a famous entrepreneur is from his Jinqiao County.
This alone makes him, as the county magistrate, proud. Anyone who dares to say that Ye Yun isn't from his county will face his wrath!
Mu Jingsheng just chuckled.
Looking at the proud expression on He Houfa's face, he patted He Houfa's shoulder again and said in a low voice, "Since my daughter is from your Jinqiao County, and the people of your Jinqiao County have been wronged, shouldn't you, as the county magistrate, stand up for the people under your jurisdiction?"
"ah?"
Caught off guard, He Houfa stared blankly at Mu Jingsheng.
Mu Jingsheng smiled, his eyes narrowing.
"Old He, I'm leaving this matter to you. I have faith in your abilities."
After saying that, he patted He Houfa on the shoulder again, and said meaningfully, "To be honest, I don't quite believe that a young girl like Liu Xiaoyun could so easily steal my daughter's glory. There might be someone in the provincial capital helping her behind the scenes. You know, with your status, you wouldn't dare to offend people in the provincial capital, but if you handle this matter well..."
If you do this well, you'll become someone the provincial capital can't afford to offend.
Mu Jingsheng didn't say what he was going to say, but gave He Houfa a look that was more than just a knowing glance.
He Houfa licked the corner of his mouth.
Two seconds later, he picked up a glass of wine and firmly raised it to Mu Jingsheng: "Brother Mu, don't worry, I will definitely find out the truth about your daughter's matter and give her justice!"
"..."
...
That evening, Ye Yun, Qin Zheng, and the others returned to the garment factory, but Liu Xiaoyun was nowhere to be seen.
According to the gatekeeper, Liu Xiaoyun waited at the gate for about half an hour, but they never came. She left because she couldn't stand the cold anymore.
Half an hour.
Mu Jingsheng scoffed.
Her future was at stake, yet she only waited at the door for half an hour; it seems she wasn't afraid at all.
Ye Yun understood Mu Jingsheng's meaning and smiled faintly: "She will come again."
“Of course, I could tell at a glance that she’s not someone to mess with,” Mu Jingsheng said. “But don’t worry, daughter, with your father here, she’ll have to apologize to you for this and return all the honor that’s rightfully yours.”
Ye Yun said calmly, "Mm."
She never doubted whether Mu Jingsheng's words were true or not. She believed in Mu Jingsheng's abilities and his eagerness to get closer to her.
at the same time.
Night fell.
The cold wind howled through the empty alley, its terrifying sound like the wailing of passing demons.
Ye Xue hurriedly caught up with Cui Baoxiang.
"Brother Baoxiang, I really don't know how my cousin has such a powerful background. Please don't be angry, okay?" She grabbed Cui Baoxiang's arm urgently, pleading bitterly.
Cui Baoxiang shook off her hand, his tone displeased: "That's enough, stop following me."
unlucky!
He just wanted to pick up a girl, but he ran into a brick wall and got slapped for no reason.
Damn, his face still hurts!
The thought of this made Cui Baoxiang's face burn with pain. He couldn't help but touch his cheek and curse, "Damn it..."
If it weren't for Ye Xue, that country bumpkin, would he have had such an embarrassing day?
