Chapter 178, Section 177: Authorization Successful
"...This is a sofa bed at home, it's so comfortable and soft."
Jiang Xia felt a sharp pain in his heart. The same father-in-law, the same recipe, had him completely under their thumb.
Although he was unwilling, what could he do besides accept it as a son-in-law?
Seeing the disappointment in his eyes, Lin Yanwan chuckled inwardly. Her father wouldn't give his daughter away so easily. At this stage, it was already quite good that he agreed to let her stay at home.
"Dad, don't bother. There's no toothpaste, toothbrush, or change of clothes here. It'll be more convenient for me to go back." Jiang Xia refused righteously.
"Yes, that's true." Lin Gaoyuan turned to look at his wife and said with a smile, "Wanqiu, let's buy a few more sets of toothpaste, toothbrushes, and face towels for the house sometime, so our son-in-law can use them too."
"good."
Ji Wanqiu nodded in agreement, then looked at Jiang Xia with a slight hesitation: "It's so late now, let me take you home. I can also tell your parents so they won't worry."
It's clear that the mother-in-law cares a lot about her son-in-law.
"Mom, no need, no need. My parents haven't bothered with me since I graduated. As long as I don't go out and cause trouble, I can come back whenever I want. You should get some rest."
Do you have a house key?
"some."
"Oh, then be careful on your way home, and send Yanwan a text message when you get home."
"Okay."
Goodbye, brother-in-law.
Goodbye, Xiaoman.
The elderly couple saw him to the elevator. As the elevator doors closed, Lin Gaoyuan snorted softly, "Don't I know what this kid's up to? He just wants to get into Yan Wan's bed. Do you think I'd agree to that?"
Ji Wanqiu felt a sharp pain in her heart. In her opinion, it was only a matter of time before the two children started living together. She could stop them now that they were under her nose, but once they went to the capital, far away from the emperor, she wouldn't be able to control them.
So we'll have to wait and see what happens. Instead of worrying about this and that now, we should give our daughter more preventative treatments.
For example, don't believe these kinds of lies: "It's too late, the dorm is closed," "The hotel said there's only one room left," "I just want to hold you while we sleep, trust me, I won't do anything else," "I'll just rub against you, I won't go inside."
"Let's go back to sleep. We still have to talk to the producers of Tom and Jerry about a collaboration tomorrow."
Lin Gaoyuan yawned.
After leaving his wife's house, Jiang Xia hailed a taxi on the roadside and went home. Apart from working on storyboards for a while in the morning, he spent the afternoon sleeping with his wife. He is still wide awake and full of energy.
When he got home, he found that his parents had already gone to bed early. He first sent his wife a text message saying that he had arrived home, and then took some clean clothes and took a shower.
Next, I'll be drawing late into the night, at least to catch up on the progress I missed during the day.
◇
The next morning, Jiang Xia was still asleep when he was woken up by a cell phone ringing.
He squinted at the caller ID and saw it was Li Weiya, so he had no choice but to answer.
"Hello, Aunt Li..."
Hearing the hoarseness in his voice, which still sounded like he had just woken up, Li Weiya chuckled and said, "Still sleeping?"
"Yeah, I went to bed a little late last night." Jiang Xia simply closed her eyes to speak, only holding the phone to her ear, yawning one after another.
“Amin is still sleeping. He probably stayed up until 2 a.m. last night. I can’t do that. I have to get sleepy when it’s time to sleep.”
Li Weiya chatted for a few minutes before getting straight to the point: "Today I'm going to sign a contract with your father-in-law. Do you have anything to say?"
Jiang Xia thought for a moment and said, "Don't rush into signing the contract. Let's take a look at his factory, check out the production line and working environment, and carefully consider it before signing the contract. He has worked hard these past two days to get our peripheral authorization smoothly."
"Yes, that's true."
"Also, if you feel there's anything wrong with it, you must bring it up face to face and express your dissatisfaction as much as possible. You must even put some pressure on him in the contract. You must know that this toy factory is the bridgehead for our company to enter the toy market in the future, so we must manage and develop it well."
"really."
Li Weiya was well aware of Jiangxia's development plan; he wanted to sell merchandise and toys, and his family's factory was of paramount importance.
Now is the perfect time to leverage the popularity of "Tom and Jerry" to achieve a breakthrough. If this opportunity is missed, the difficulty of developing further in the future will increase exponentially.
So, are you coming over?
"Aunt Li, you can make all the decisions. You know the rules of business better than I do. Just let me know the results after the contract is signed." Jiang Xia couldn't help but yawn again.
"Alright."
Li Weiya laughed and scolded, "Get up quickly, stop sleeping. Check QQ now, I'll send you a copy of the revised contract, see if there are any omissions, so I can revise it immediately."
"good."
After hanging up the phone, Jiang Xia dozed off for another two minutes before struggling to get out of bed.
He turned on the computer in his study and carefully reviewed the contract. He found no problems and it was perfectly acceptable to sign it.
He then immediately called his wife; after all, they needed to exchange information.
At this moment, he was like a general commanding an army, deciding victory from afar.
◇
The two agreed to meet at Lin Gaoyuan's own toy factory, which had a rather rustic name: Gaoyuan Toys. It sounded like a personal name and lacked the feel of a company that could grow big and successful.
Today, Li Weiya wore a light green suit, big waves in her hair, high heels, and bright lipstick, exuding a strong, capable businesswoman vibe.
"You must be Mr. Li? Hello, hello." Lin Gaoyuan shook hands with her very politely.
"Hello, Mr. Lin."
Li Weiya smiled as she glanced at A Xia's father-in-law. He looked kind and steady, slightly overweight, and was also dressed in a suit.
As for the well-dressed and beautiful woman beside him, she must be Xia's mother-in-law. If the mother is so good-looking, the daughter must be just as beautiful. According to A-Ming, she is probably the class beauty.
Tsk, that kid is really lucky.
"Has Mr. Li had breakfast yet?" Ji Wanqiu smiled slightly.
"I've already eaten," Li Weiya replied with a smile.
She took a file folder out of the car and looked at the two of them, speaking directly.
"Mr. Lin, I'm a bit short on time today, so let's get straight to the point. The purpose of my visit is to inspect your toy factory and see if it meets the requirements to become a partner of our company. If everything is satisfactory, we can formally discuss cooperation."
What do you think?
