Qian Mao was unaware of the impact his suit-trying experience would have on the store's business. At the time, he noticed many people hesitating in front of the suits of varying sizes. After all, these were designed by his sister, and the business was hers. He had placed these clothes there through Uncle Zhang's connections, so they couldn't be left to gather dust. Therefore, he looked for his size and tried on a suit, unexpectedly attracting the attention of many customers.
In fact, Qian Mao already has a very good physique, and wearing a suit made him look even more distinguished. When he came out of the fitting room, everyone was attracted by his appearance and praised him highly. Even customers who were not originally interested in suits began to be interested after seeing how well Qian Mao looked in one. In just a few minutes, the store sold seven or eight suits.
Zhang Haifeng was overjoyed at the sudden surge in sales. He knew it was all thanks to Qian Mao's help and charm. So, he decided to treat Qian Mao to dinner to express his gratitude, and also invited his good-for-nothing son, Zhang Lei, along, hoping to get him closer to Qian Mao.
To Qian Mao's surprise, he and Zhang Haifeng invited him to dine at this well-known luxury restaurant in Haishi. However, to his utter surprise, he ran into an acquaintance there—his classmate, Zhang Muyao. Despite her sweet and adorable appearance and gentle, approachable demeanor, this girl possessed remarkable abilities. Amazingly, she was fluent in four foreign languages, which allowed her to quickly stand out at school and become the center of attention. Such talent and charm instantly made her a popular figure on campus.
Zhang Muyao also saw Qian Mao. She smiled and nodded at him. When Qian Mao smiled back, her face flushed slightly. Yu Xiyao, sitting opposite Zhang Muyao, saw her daughter's series of actions and curiously looked behind her in the mirror. Oh, what a coincidence! This young man is here too, eating, and the two of them are even facing each other. No wonder she spotted him so quickly.
Zhang Haotian sat down next to Yu Xiyao and said with a smile, "We're about to eat, and you still want to look in the mirror!"
Zhang Muyao was already used to her parents' close relationship. As long as they were happy, that was enough. After all, their love had always been so deep. Even in elementary school, Zhang Muyao knew one thing: her parents' love was true love, and she was an absolute accident. Although her mother only gave birth to her, her father never complained. Even when her grandmother repeatedly hinted that her mother should have another child, her father firmly refused. This couple often displayed their affection in front of her without any restraint, and sometimes Zhang Muyao really didn't want to be in the same place as them.
Yu Xiyao whispered a few words in Zhang Haotian's ear. Zhang Haotian's expression did not change at all, but as Yu Xiyao spoke, his gaze shifted from his lover to his daughter. He finally nodded and said, "I understand about this. I will look into it when I get back."
Hearing her father's words and recalling her encounter with Qian Mao earlier that day, Zhang Muyao said, "Dad, Mom, please don't get involved in this matter, okay?"
Zhang Haotian said with a smile, "When our daughter grows up, she has to get married. We won't stop her from doing that, but we will definitely have to investigate the man."
Zhang Muyao refuted this point. After all, her father was now the mayor of Hai City. Marrying her would mean that, even if he didn't become an overnight sensation, he would at least save himself twenty years of hard work. Moreover, all the women around her had been investigated since she was a child. This was out of protection for his daughter and also because of Zhang Haotian's caution. It was precisely because of his caution that he was able to become the youngest mayor of Hai City at the age of fifty-one.
During dinner with the Zhang family of three, Qian Mao never expected that Mayor Zhang would take notice of him. He was watching Zhang Lei and Qian Mao bickering. Zhang Haifeng initially tried to mediate, but seeing that the two were exchanging barbs, which were mostly just proverbs, especially Qian Mao, whose mind worked incredibly fast, Qian Mao had already rattled off a bunch of rebuttals before Zhang Lei could even finish his first sentence, Zhang Lei finally gave in and declared: "Go home and train hard for three hundred days, and I'll defeat everyone in the world with one move!"
Zhang Haifeng looked at the two of them and smiled helplessly. These two were really something. Qian Mao was clearly a few years older than Zhang Lei, but when the two of them were together, no one could tell that this kid was already over thirty.
Moreover, just because this kid could get such good supplies, which made his position in the purchasing department more and more stable and better, Zhang Haifeng was willing to respect him. However, Qian Mao was about to graduate, and he didn't know how long such supplies could be provided. Thinking of this, a hint of bitterness appeared in Zhang Haifeng's smile.
Qian Mao returned to his dormitory and was preparing for his final thesis and defense. He was now regretting that he should have followed along when Qian Duoduo took the college entrance exam. Look at his younger sister, she is already in her second year of graduate school, while he is just preparing to graduate. He was unhappy!
Qian Mao, who was carrying materials and preparing to go to the library to study, was suddenly stopped by someone.
He looked at the girl in front of him, somewhat puzzled. He smiled and asked, "Hello, Zhang, is there something you need?"
Zhang Muyao looked around. Although it was a small path on campus, usually deserted, she wanted to do something today, which made her palms sweat. She swallowed hard, her voice trembling slightly, "Qian Mao, there's something I want to tell you."
