"That's great news!" Uncle Long said happily. "When you were working at our braised food shop, you were always worried about who you were. Now that you've regained your memories, aren't you happy?"
As soon as Uncle Long opened his mouth, Aunt Cui quickly interrupted him, "Why are you bringing up the matter of working at the braised food shop again?"
Aunt Cui naturally felt a little guilty about having such a big boss working for them in their shop.
But Chen Dong didn't mind at all. He comforted Aunt Cui, saying, "Aunt Cui, it's nothing. I originally worked here."
The courtyard wasn't very big. Xiao Liu and the fox guarded the entrance, and could hear everything Chen Dong and the others said.
Xiao Liu looked at the old fox somewhat embarrassedly, while the old fox lowered his head in shame.
It was because Xiao Liu was shot that the boss went out to find medicine for them, and that's why they lost track of Chen Dong.
More than half a year later, they finally found the owner after searching door to door on the main street in front of the Mazu Temple.
"Ah Fang," Chen Dong looked at Ah Fang and said cautiously, "Now that I've regained my memories and taken control of Longteng again, in your words, I've made it big."
"I came back this time for two reasons. First, I wanted to see you all. Second, although the braised food shop is a business, it's still too small a battlefield for you."
"Have you ever considered studying abroad, or coming to Longteng to be my secretary?"
Upon hearing this, Uncle Long and Aunt Cui widened their eyes again.
If she were to study abroad, with a recommendation letter from the boss of Longteng, she would definitely be able to get into a good university internationally. And if she were to work at Longteng, wouldn't that mean the boss of Longteng personally gave her an offer?!
Seeing that Afang didn't react for a long time, Aunt Cui tugged at her sleeve anxiously, "How is it, Afang?"
"Give me an answer!"
Seeing the little girl with her head down and a dejected expression, Zhou Huimin assumed she was embarrassed and whispered a few words of comfort:
"Don't worry, no matter what you choose, we won't force you."
"The reason Chen Dong wanted to do so much for the braised food shop was mainly to repay your kindness."
"Gratitude?" Hearing this, Afang felt even more disappointed.
She saved Chen Dong out of kindness, but she kept him with her because her heart belonged to him.
Unexpectedly, when they arrived at their place, this feeling turned into a debt of gratitude.
Afang was unwilling to speak, and the atmosphere around the stone table quickly became tense.
Then, the tense atmosphere gradually became somewhat awkward.
“Afang, if you don’t want to study abroad or come to Longteng, we can still fulfill your other wishes.” Annie asked gently, “Do you have any unfulfilled wishes?”
“My wish…” Afang finally looked up and looked directly at Chen Dong for the first time.
But after just one glance, she quickly lowered her head again, saying, "I have no wishes."
Annie, being perceptive, quickly noticed that Afang's gaze towards Chen Dong was different from that of the others.
She wondered to herself, "Could it be that this young girl has also fallen for Chen Dong?"
That's true. After spending half a year together in the braised food shop, it's impossible not to have some feelings for each other. If we were just ordinary friends, we wouldn't be feeling so awkward now.
Anne immediately said, "If that's the case, our boss doesn't have anything else he can do for you."
She glanced down at Chen Dong, and seeing him nod, Annie said, "Uncle Long and Aunt Cui, we will lease the entire street of shops in your names to do business for you."
"As for what kind of business you do and how much profit you make, you are responsible for your own profits and losses. We will absolutely not interfere."
“As for Afang, let’s give her some money.” Annie glanced at Afang deliberately, then looked at Chen Dong and asked for his opinion.
Chen Dong said somewhat dejectedly, "Some time ago, Soros attacked the Hong Kong dollar, and I was constantly traveling back and forth between China and Hong Kong, so I didn't have time to visit you."
"Soros' next target may be a region or country in Southeast Asia, but it is very likely to be South Korea."
"But whoever his target is, I'm afraid I won't have time to visit you again."
"Ah Fang, since you don't have any other wishes, then we..."
Upon hearing this, Fang broke out in a cold sweat and quickly replied, "I'm willing, I'm willing to be your secretary!"
No matter what, being able to stay by his side is better than worrying about him every day while I'm at the braised food shop.
"Okay." Seeing that Afang had finally agreed, Chen Dong breathed a sigh of relief.
Then, Vivian Chow, who was standing next to her, immediately put away her pleasant expression.
Uncle Long and Aunt Cui's family were chatting happily with Chen Dong, completely unaware of the change in Zhou Huimin's expression.
Becoming the secretary of the boss of Longteng means that, regardless of the salary, at least you get to go out and see the world.
Chen Dong was happy that he was willing to take Afang as his secretary.
Annie said to Uncle Long and Aunt Cui very sensibly, "The process of contracting the storefronts on the whole street will take at least a month."
Having received this favor from Secretary Long Teng, Uncle Long said somewhat embarrassedly, "You've given me this entire street?"
"How could I possibly accept that?"
"Xiao Lu, we've taken you in for over half a year, but we haven't done anything to help you regain your memory..."
Just as Chen Dong was about to speak, Zhou Huimin said to Uncle Long, "Uncle Long, if it were someone else, they might be able to help you resolve your troubles or connect you with others, but Chen Dong is usually too busy, and there's really not much he can do for you."
