What disappointed him was not Jiang Xue's hurtful words, but the realization that his reckless behavior had truly caused Jiang Xue severe emotional trauma.
"Don't be angry anymore, okay? I'll take you back." Ji Chen repeated his words, no longer using sweet talk.
Jiang Xue snatched the stall and covered herself with it, saying, "Don't bother me here."
Jiang Xue continued to act out her little temper, perhaps because being pampered makes her fearless.
Ji Chen was really a bit helpless. Jiang Xue usually seemed to have a very stable emotional state, but once she vented, it was like a flood that couldn't be stopped.
Ji Chen was at a loss, unable to advance or retreat.
He spun around in anger several times, but Jiang Xue pretended not to see him.
He couldn't resist sitting down next to Jiang Xue. "I'll come pick you up later. I have some things to take care of now."
Jiang Xue closed her eyes and pretended to be asleep. After Ji Chen left, she breathed a sigh of relief, got up, and went to Aunt Zhou's stall to get a bowl of wontons. After eating them, she felt much better.
"Jiang Xue, don't get angry with Ji Chen like this." Aunt Zhou was getting a little anxious, and her words were full of earnestness.
Jiang Xue knew that Aunt Zhou meant well, but she really didn't want to talk about it now.
“I know he’s a good person, but I don’t think we’re a good match. I’m the kind of person who’s best suited to be alone, the kind of life where I grow old alone.”
Jiang Xue wasn't just making things up; these were her honest thoughts. She felt helpless in this intimate relationship and didn't know how to resolve the conflicts.
She was like a little hedgehog, hiding all her softness beneath her prickly exterior.
"Don't talk nonsense. People always need to work things out to get along."
Seeing that Aunt Zhou was still rambling on and on, Jiang Xue, having finished eating, put down her soup spoon.
"Xiaoling, the village hasn't given us any notice about when the factory will be moved yet. I'm worried that those people won't want to move," Jiang Xue said, expressing her lingering concerns.
These villagers would certainly prefer to work close to home. If it's too far, it will be inconvenient for them to take care of their children, so they definitely won't want to move.
This is a huge problem, and Jiang Xue's head is starting to ache just thinking about it.
Because there were so many things to do during this period, she never imagined that the uphill phase would be the most tiring.
"Why don't we let them know when we get back tonight? Do you want me to go with you?" Gu Xiaoling felt that Jiang Xue was pregnant now, so she definitely couldn't do anything as hastily as before.
If things were to go wrong like before, Ji Chen would kill her.
"No need, I'll go and say it myself. I'm just wondering how I should bring it up," Jiang Xue said, sitting worriedly in her chair.
“I went to talk to them and said that we wanted to set up a factory. After all, it’s about expanding production. They have no choice but to leave. Although they are all skilled workers that we trained ourselves, we can’t stay in the same way forever without expanding our scale.”
Gu Xiaoling was telling the truth. She thought that if they really didn't want to go, then they wouldn't have to.
Jiang Xue has a soft heart and feels that everyone's life is not easy. Some of them even have elderly parents and young children to take care of. If they were all moved away, it would be really troublesome for them to come back and take care of their children and elderly parents.
Jiang Xue understood what Gu Xiaoling was saying, but when it comes to running a business, while an iron fist is important, it's also necessary to balance firmness with flexibility.
