"Xia'er, Xiaomo, you are finally here, please sit down."

In the office, Xie's father smiled and welcomed the two of them to sit on the sofa in the reception area. He then asked them what they wanted to drink and asked his secretary to bring it in.

After the secretary left, Yun Mo took the initiative to speak, "Mr. Xie, I heard from Sister Xia that you have already chosen the design of Zhengshengrisheng?"

"Xiao Mo, I discussed this with Xia'er's mother last night, and we both think your two designs are very interesting and fit the style of our Ronghua Food.

But you should also know that Ronghua used to use paper and iron materials to make gift boxes. This is the first time to use handmade bamboo weaving, which is an innovation and attempt for us.

So, let's do as we agreed, sign a 10,000 yuan order first to try it out, and if the response is good, then we can sign a long-term cooperation agreement. As for the design of "A harmonious family brings prosperity", you can keep it for Ronghua for the time being, what do you think?"

Yun Mo naturally wouldn't refuse, "No problem."

Afterwards, the two had an in-depth discussion on price and details, and finally determined that the unit price of each rice dumpling box was 2.85 yuan.

After confirming the terms of the contract, Yunmo and Ronghua formally signed the supply agreement.

According to the contract, Yunmo needs to provide samples within 15 days, deliver 7,000 finished products before March 31, and deliver the remaining number of finished products before April 15.

After signing the agreement, Xie's father suggested going to a nearby restaurant for dinner.

Yun Mo did not refuse. This meal was inevitable both for public and private reasons.

While the dishes were being served, Yun Mo used the restaurant's phone to call Lu'an Town.

In the evening, Yun Mo had just returned home for a while when Uncle Luo next door called her over to answer the phone.

"Mom! I got the order from the Xie family!"

After answering the phone, Yun Mo couldn't wait to share the good news with Huang Zhiqiu.

Huang Zhiqiu on the other end of the phone was very happy after hearing this, "Great! Which one did they choose?"

“It’s getting better and better.”

Although Yun Mo had some design skills, she knew nothing about bamboo weaving. Before conceiving the design, she communicated with Huang Zhiqiu to make sure that her idea could be presented before she dared to approach the Xie family with the design.

"Mom, I have already sent you the design drawings this afternoon. It was sent by express delivery. It should arrive the day after tomorrow. Remember to pick it up early. Time is tight. The samples must be sent to the company for review before the end of the month."

"Okay, I'll go to the post office in town the day after tomorrow morning."

After successfully obtaining Zhao Shi's first investment of 200,000 yuan, Yun Shixian also relaxed his control over Yun Yao and allowed her to go out freely.

Yun Yao first went to a newly opened women's club in Jiang City to do skin care, then went to a hair salon to do her hair, and then took a taxi to the department store, planning to buy two sets of presentable clothes.

She had to take advantage of the fact that Zhao Shi was still interested in her, win his heart, and make him pay for her to open a beauty salon.

On the way to the department store in a taxi, she encountered a traffic jam, which happened to be near the commercial street. Thinking of the clothing store she opened, Yun Yao simply got out of the car and wanted to go over to check out the situation and get some money.

She has made such a big sacrifice for the company, and Yun Shixian would not care about spending three or five hundred yuan.

—

"Welcome, miss, what would you like to buy?"

Yun Yao was very surprised to see the desolation and bleakness in the clothing store.

Even if someone else is running the business, the business shouldn't be so quiet given the brand and reputation.

"Where's Li Ying?"

Hearing her question, the clerk looked at her strangely, "Why are you looking for her? She resigned a while ago."

Li Ying was the store manager she personally selected, and he actually resigned?

Yun Yao was about to continue asking when the two shop assistants suddenly shouted "Madam Boss" in unison behind her.

Yun Yao thought it was Jiang Yu who came, but when she turned around, she found it was a strange young woman, and she was even more surprised.

Although Bai Xue had never seen Yun Yao, she vaguely guessed Yun Yao's identity and smiled slightly, "You are Miss Yun, right?"

"Who are you?"

Bai Xue briefly explained a few words to the clerk and then took Yun Yao to a nearby teahouse.

After entering the teahouse, the waiter came over to take tea orders.

"A pot of Biluochun."

Hearing Yun Yao ordering tea, Bai Xue interrupted quickly, "One cup is enough, give me a cup of warm water."

Yun Yao glanced at Bai Xue's belly thoughtfully.

It's been almost four months, and Bai Xue's belly is slightly showing, but not too obvious, after all, she is wearing thick clothes in winter.

After the waiter left, Bai Xue took the initiative to speak, "My last name is Bai, and my given name is Xue. Your father ran the shop for me."

Yun Yao knew her father too well. He was a shrewd and calculating person who never did business at a loss. It was even more impossible for him to hand over the store to an outsider for no reason.

unless……

Yun Yao had some vague guesses in her mind, but was also shocked because Bai Xue did not exist in her previous life.

At least, in the six months since she was called back by the Yun family to recuperate, she had not heard anything about Yun Shixian's romantic affairs, let alone his illegitimate children.

In his previous life, Yun Shixian ran his company prosperously and was once preparing to go public. His relationship with Jiang Yu was also stable.

Yun Mo married into the Su family and became a wealthy wife that everyone envied. Her biological father was a big shot from Beijing. She was clearly a winner in life.

Yun Huan married a rich second-generation man from the provincial capital, and her life was equally prosperous. Yun Cong married the daughter of a wealthy family with a similar family background, and was ready to inherit the Yun family's huge business at any time.

The whole family lived a happy life, except for her, who was the most miserable. Not only was she a despised prisoner in prison reform, she also suffered from a terminal illness. She was unwilling to accept her fate until the moment of her death.

"Miss?"

Yun Yao regained her composure and asked Bai Xue about her identity directly, "What is your relationship with my father?"

"Mrs. Yun knows my identity very well."

Yun Yao's face was filled with even more surprise. Jiang Yu had known about Bai Xue's existence for a long time, and he could tolerate her? "Miss, do you have anything else to ask?"

"Are you pregnant?"

Bai Xue nodded without hesitation. It wasn't so obvious now that she was wearing thick clothes, but when spring came next year and she was wearing thin clothes, it wouldn't be able to hide it anymore.

"Does my mother know about this?"

“Yes.”

Hearing this, Yun Yao couldn't help but look at the woman in front of her carefully.

Her appearance was not stunning, but she was comfortable and attractive. Her every frown and smile revealed gentleness and tranquility, and she had a scholarly temperament that Jiang Yu did not have.

"Where are you from? What did you do before?"

"These are not important. Miss, you just need to know that me and the baby in my belly will not hinder your position and interests."

Hearing this, Yun Yao's heart was filled with ridicule.

What position does she have in the Yun family now? She is just a pawn being manipulated by others.

Looking at Bai Xue's fair and pretty face, an idea slowly emerged in Yun Yao's mind.
