Chapter 27 The Beautiful Widow



Looking at the beautiful widow so close to him, Li Weidong's face couldn't help but turn red.

Come to think of it, I'm only 23 years old in this life, and I'm still a clueless guy who's never even touched a woman's hand.

Shen Xiaoyan was applying safflower oil when she noticed something and suddenly looked up.

After seeing Li Weidong's cheeks, which were as red as apples.

He burst out laughing.

"Brother Weidong, are you so shy? You're still single?"

"No." Li Weidong shook his head shyly.

"You're so handsome and kind-hearted. I wonder which lucky girl is lucky enough to have you. By the way, I don't know what you do for a living or how old you are."

“I’m 23 years old, just a country bumpkin, growing mushrooms in my hometown.”

"Growing mushrooms?"

"It's oyster mushrooms. There are more than a dozen restaurants in our county that I supply."

"Really? Why didn't you say so earlier? You can send one to our store next time." Shen Xiaoyan was wondering how to thank Li Weidong, but she never expected that he was a mushroom grower.

"Okay, I promise to give you a good price from now on."

"So, can we say we've become friends after this little misunderstanding?" Shen Xiaoyan said with a charming smile.

"Sister, you're using the wrong idiom. Today we should call it 'shared hatred against a common enemy'."

"Hey, it's different. I'm eight years older than you, so you can call me Sister Xiaoyan from now on."

"OK."

As they chatted, the two gradually opened up and began to talk more.

Moreover, they got along quite well.

The conversation shifted from discussing their respective identities to talking about doing business.

Li Weidong discovered that many of her business philosophies coincided with his own.

Moreover, she is exceptionally hardworking, unafraid of taking a loss, has a broad perspective, and is highly efficient in her work.

Li Weidong finally understood why she had become the richest woman in the area in her previous life.

In the previous life, ordinary people actually had a few opportunities to cross social classes.

The first time was in the mid-1980s, when the rural areas implemented the household responsibility system, which lifted restrictions on farmers going to the city to work and do business.

During this period, countless farmer entrepreneurs emerged across the country.

The second time was around 1993, with the reform and opening up.

The third time was after 2000, on the one hand, the internet boom.

On the other hand, with China's accession to the WTO, it began to take on global orders, and at that time, township and village enterprises sprang up like mushrooms after rain.

Even township enterprises in the Yangtze River Delta region have the opportunity to receive large orders from overseas.

As for the fourth opportunity, it was the boom period of the real estate market.

In her previous life, Shen Xiaoyan managed to ride every wave of opportunity except for the internet, reaping considerable benefits from the era's trends.

However, apart from the first time being a fluke, all the others were based on her keen intuition and outstanding work ability.

It can be said that this woman was a born businesswoman.

"Oh dear, it's almost ten o'clock..."

As they chatted, Shen Xiaoyan suddenly realized that it was already 10 p.m.

It's the middle of the night, and it's a bit inappropriate for a man and a woman to be alone in a room.

"Hey, where do you live? I can find someone to take you home," Shen Xiaoyan said.

"No need, I'll find a hotel later and just stay there for the night."

"Hotel?"

"I came here in a tricycle, but my arm is injured and I can't drive."

"You can't stay in a hotel, can you? Why don't you just stay here with me tonight?"

"Huh?" This time it was Li Weidong's turn to be dumbfounded.

There is a place to sleep upstairs.

As she spoke, Shen Xiaoyan walked ahead, her red high-heeled sandals leading the way.

The second floor of the restaurant consists of individual private rooms.

In addition, at the end, there is a toilet and a locked manager's office.

After opening the door, Li Weidong discovered that it was a small bedroom.

There is a bed, sofa, and wardrobe.

"You can sleep here tonight," Shen Xiaoyan said.

Li Weidong saw that there were many of Shen Xiaoyan's personal belongings inside, and knew that this was her room.

I blurted out instinctively, "You sleep here too?"

Shen Xiaoyan was stunned for a moment, then glared at him.

"You brat, what are you thinking about?"

Seeing her gaze, Li Weidong realized he had misunderstood, and his face flushed red.

"Sister Xiaoyan, you've misunderstood. I meant, is this your room?"

"Yeah, I used to sleep here all the time. You can sleep here tonight, I'll go find a private room outside."

"This...isn't this inappropriate?" Li Weidong said somewhat embarrassedly.

Isn't this like a cuckoo taking over someone else's nest?

"There's nothing wrong with it. You must be exhausted today. Get some rest."

After saying that, Shen Xiaoyan turned and left.

After entering the room, Li Weidong looked at the purple underwear lying on the bed, and his face flushed slightly...

Xiaoyan really likes purple.

The ancients were right; indeed, purple has a lot of charm.

After carefully making the bed, Li Weidong realized that he hadn't called his family to let them know.

If I don't come home by now, my mother is probably already getting impatient.

Just then, Shen Xiaoyan walked in carrying a thermos and a cup.

"I got you some water, so you don't need to come downstairs."

"Thank you, Sister Xiaoyan. Do you have a phone here? I'll tell my family I'm not going back."

"Yes, at the cashier on the first floor. You can call anywhere."

"good."

Li Weidong responded and quickly went downstairs.
