Chapter 207 It's all the fault of alcohol



With Jack's support, no one dared to object to Jiang Ning becoming the team leader.

She also gained two more subordinates.

At lunchtime, she got her food and sat down with Xu Yan.

After the New Year, Xu Yan's complexion was much better than before. Her skin, which used to be a bit dull, now had a glow and a rosy hue, like that of a man who had moisturized her.

"Congratulations!" Xu Yan was happy for her to become the team leader.

It's truly remarkable that she's been given such important responsibilities even before graduating.

Jiang Ning thanked her and then asked if she had a boyfriend.

Xu Yan smiled shyly and buried her head in her food: "I guess so."

Jiang Ning laughed at her, "What's there to be shy about? Having a boyfriend is a good thing. We women should have both love and career. It's so nice to have a caring man to pamper you after get off work every day!"

Xu Yan smiled, then spoke with some difficulty:

"Ningning, I have a favor to ask you. Could you take me with you next time you go to Yansha Garment Factory?"

Because the previous orders were all made for Jiang Ning, and they were done very well, the garment factory gave all the new orders to Jiang Ning.

Jiang Ning readily agreed, "No problem, if you're willing, you're helping me out."

Xu Yan had been in the industry longer than her, so there were some things she could ask her for advice on.

Unexpectedly, in the afternoon, Jiang Ning received a call from the clothing factory, asking her to come over and confirm the clothing styles.

The last time 20,000 Tang suits arrived overseas, they sold very well.

They have a very positive outlook on the domestic clothing market.

Of course, the clothes that have gained international recognition are all distinctive Tang suits and cheongsams.

Their order this time is for 50,000 pieces, to be delivered within six months.

Thirty thousand Tang suits and twenty thousand cheongsams.

If mass production is required, the clothing styles need to be finalized as soon as possible, and the fabric materials also need to be ordered in advance.

Jiang Ning quickly contacted the foreign company to confirm, and their reply was very simple: as long as she thought it was good, that was fine, and they had full confidence in her judgment.

Because every single one is beautiful.

Jiang Ning thought to herself, "That makes things easier."

We've added a few more styles of Tang suits to the original designs, and we made ten styles of cheongsams last time, so we're adding twenty more this time.

When she and Xu Yan arrived at the garment factory, they made their request to Yu Xiao.

“No problem, I’ll arrange for the sample garment to be made. However, you’ll still need to provide the design draft. As you know, our factory doesn’t have a dedicated designer, and we’ve never made a cheongsam before.”

Yu Xiao readily agreed and also shared her thoughts.

As he spoke, his eyes kept glancing at Xu Yan.

Xu Yan was very open and didn't care about his gaze at all.

After the conversation was over, Yu Xiao stopped Xu Yan, "Miss Xu, let me take you home. I accidentally took your handkerchief with me, here it is!"

Xu Yan took the handkerchief, thanked her, and then hurriedly left.

Jiang Ning saw that she was clutching her chest and her ears were red, and she guessed what was going on.

"Sister Xu, you and Director Yu..."

Xu Yan quickly interrupted her: "Ningning, what should I do? I don't want to force him with that matter, but I can't help wanting to see him. Am I just wishful thinking?"

Jiang Ning chuckled inwardly; Xu Yan was clearly in love.

That's true, she's already thirty, and her family has been pushing her to find a boyfriend for a long time, but she's been putting it off because of work.

She used to work in a garment factory, but her family pressured her so much that she quit and came to work for a trading company that was far from home.

After joining the trading company, she met Yu Xiao by chance.

I fell in love with him at first sight.

Previously, it was just a crush, but nothing came of it.

Later, when Yu Xiao accompanied Jiang Ning to dinner, she drank a bit too much. When Yu Xiao took her home, the two of them ended up sleeping together under the influence of alcohol.

The next day, when Xu Yan woke up, she was both surprised and delighted to see Yu Xiao sleeping soundly.

She didn't know how to face him, so she left a note and went to work.

The note read: "Pretend nothing happened last night."

After that, she was conflicted and didn't contact him again, and he couldn't reach her either, until she received a call from him after she went to work.

This time, Yu Xiao actually said he wanted to marry her.

"Oh dear, you should have said so earlier! I'm just being a third wheel." Jiang Ning quickly pushed her back.

"Go see him again right away and explain things clearly. He wants to marry you, and you want to marry him, so what are you hesitating for?"

Yu Xiao has a mature and dignified appearance and is successful in her career, so she and Xu Yan are quite suitable to be together.

Xu Yan walked into Yu Xiao's office again, blushing, and stammered:

"Director Yu, I know what happened last time was an accident, please don't take it to heart, I don't need you to take responsibility."

Yu Xiao stood up and came to her side. "Every word I say is carefully considered. If you feel it's abrupt, then let's start by getting to know each other as a couple. After get off work, you can come with me to pick up the kids."

Xu Yan was surprised that he could be so direct and resolute, and nodded shyly.

Since it's just a relationship, we can end it if it doesn't work out.

"Okay, let's date first. If you feel it's not right, just let me know."

She knew that a marriage bound together by circumstances would not bring happiness.

Meanwhile, the clothing wholesale market.

Gao Baoliang sat at the cashier's table, calculating the accounts.

Business after the holiday was only half of what it was before. He was wondering if he should expand his supply channels to reduce costs.

The sound of two women talking could be heard coming from next door.

"This is the shop I told you about. It's rented out now, and I don't know how it's doing. I'll go ask."

Jiang Rou said to Ma Huiwen.

As she spoke, she asked the saleswoman inside about the situation, posing as a homeowner.

As she expected, she could earn some money, but not much.

Ma Huiwen's eyes lit up: "Ask her again if she's going to renew the lease. If not, you can do it for me."

Ma Huijuan brought her child home, but she couldn't very well kick the family out, as that would only worsen their already difficult situation.

She needs to earn more money.

Jiang Rou shook her head: "No, the other party has already paid for a full year. Unless you go and say it yourself, they will definitely raise the price."

Hearing this, Ma Huiwen felt a pang of sadness.

Jiang Rou claims to be a good friend, but when things actually get tough, she just stands by and does nothing.

Just as she was feeling down, she saw a man next door engrossed in writing something. He had short, neat hair and a handsome profile.

Once you take your eyes off it, you can't look away.

Moreover, to her surprise, she discovered that the person was none other than Gao Baoliang, whom she had been thinking about for many days.

She ran over excitedly.

She stopped in front of the table, put her hands behind her back, and looked at him with a smile:

"What are you doing?"

Gao Baoliang assumed they were buying clothes and didn't even look up.

"Go pick out your own clothes, and I'll give you the cheapest price."

Ma Huiwen's voice became even sweeter:

"How could you do this? You did that to me that day, are you trying to deny it?"
