At this moment, the night has quietly enveloped the city like a veil, and the city lights are dazzling, as if bright stars have fallen to the earth.
She raised her hand, picked up the phone, and dialed the familiar number: "Mom, have you rested yet? How are you doing in the city? Are you used to life there? I found a new job, and today is my first day. My colleagues and boss are so nice, so easygoing. I'll have social security once I become a regular employee. You, don't worry about me, just take care of yourself."
Wang Yitong's mother smiled brightly as soon as she saw it was her daughter calling. "I haven't rested yet. I have to work the night shift. This hotel provides food and accommodation, and I get 1,000 yuan a month. The work is pretty easy, just cleaning, making the beds, etc. It's very simple, much better than back home in the countryside. You have to eat better out there and gain some weight. Look at your skinny face. If you lose weight, your teeth will look even more buckled, which is not a good look."
The two of them chatted back and forth, time slipping away amidst their warm words. Before they knew it, 10 minutes had passed before they reluctantly hung up the phone.
After hearing her mother's words, she felt happy for her mother, as she finally didn't have to work as hard as she did in the countryside. But she also felt worried about her own teeth. When she thought about her grandmother's buck teeth when she was old, she felt a little scared.
After Wang Yitong carefully calculated the money given by Ayuan and her own performance commission, she gradually formed a clear plan in her mind.
She decided to use the money to get her teeth straightened at a dentist. She remembered that classmates in the class next to her in junior high and in the same class in high school had gotten braces, and the results were fantastic. Although her buck teeth weren't too noticeable now, they still made her feel a little insecure at times.
Sitting at the table, she continued to ponder. Having her teeth straightened would not only make her more confident and beautiful, but also improve her overall image and temperament. She imagined how bright her smile would be with straight, white teeth, and how much more cheerful she would become.
Wang Yitong decided to contact a dentist as soon as possible tomorrow to arrange for orthodontic treatment. She quickly opened her computer and searched for information on dentists in Chengdu. The closest one was Asia-Africa Dental Clinic, and she planned to visit for a consultation tomorrow afternoon or after get off work. She firmly believed that this small change would have a positive impact on her life.
Wang Yitong watched TV for a while and saw it was only past 7 o'clock. She changed into some light clothes and went out. On summer evenings, people in the community came out for walks to enjoy the cool air. This second phase was mostly populated by young people, as well as elderly people pushing strollers and the occasional dog walker.
Wang Yitong strolled on the road in the community, with only the breeze blowing gently, enjoying this rare quiet time.
She looked up at the sky, her heart filled with emotion. If she hadn't met A Yuan, what would her life be like? She certainly wouldn't have to worry about life like she does now. After walking for a while, Wang Yitong felt a little tired and returned home.
She lay in bed, recalling every little thing that had happened recently, and the corners of her mouth rose unconsciously. She fell into a sweet dream with a good mood.
Meanwhile, during his daytime work, Zhang Benyuan and his two other shareholders had a new idea: to establish Southwest Yuanchuan Construction Co., Ltd. They planned to acquire land and build a property themselves once funding was secured. Currently, Mr. Chen was spearheading the project, securing the construction and renovation portion of the resettlement housing, which he then subcontracted to Mr. Li. One team member was assigned to learn the lessons, while another was independently responsible for the subsequent renovations. They were already beginning to gradually enter the real estate market.
Zhang Benyuan also began discussing a partnership with Li Ge on short-term rental apartments for resettlement housing in the North District. He carefully studied the designs and quotes Li Ge sent him, and compared the funding ratios with other partners. After careful consideration, he decided to deepen his collaboration with Li Ge's company.
In the afternoon, Zhang Benyuan returned to the company after meeting with General Manager Li to discuss a partnership. On his way back, he drove past a Bao Kiosk and saw a sign that said they sold phone cards. He parked his car on the side of the road, went inside, and bought two anonymous phone cards. He then went to a nearby business office and bought a small Nokia candy-bar phone. He inserted the new phone cards into the phone and set a PIN code for the card. This way, even if the card is removed without the corresponding PIN, the card will automatically be locked.
He pulled out his phone and called Wang Yitong, telling her he had a new number and would use it from now on. He also told her he'd be there late and told her to get some sleep. Then, Zhang Benyuan returned to the company and continued discussing the afternoon's meeting with Mr. Li with the other two partners. They made the next steps and handed the matter over to the department manager at Southwest Yuanchuan Construction, who was to follow up, ensuring every detail met their requirements and maintaining close communication with Mr. Li's company to resolve any issues promptly.
Over time, both the North District resettlement housing and the short-term rental apartment they rented were successfully completed. The stylish, minimalist decor attracted numerous tenants, who praised the comfortable environment and comprehensive, convenient facilities. Meanwhile, Southwest Yuanchuan gradually established itself in Chengdu, and their business reached new heights.
After a day of work, Zhang Benyuan drove back to his own house. Having not lived there for a few days, the living room was already covered in a thin layer of dust! He swiftly picked up a mop and rag and began cleaning, even clearing out the food in the refrigerator. Since he rarely stayed there now, he planned to give the key to Aunt Liang, who had helped him out with the housework, and have her come in every Wednesday and Sunday during the day to clean.
