"Of course, no problem!" Guo Chang and Cheng Pao replied in unison.
They could earn 70 yuan a week, which was almost two months' salary for them. They would be foolish to refuse.
It's just being a bodyguard; it's not illegal.
Su Yan: "Let's start now. Today's pay is half a day's work. You just need to follow me."
"good."
With the bodyguard arrangements settled, Su Yan said to Tang Li, "I'll take them to the house to tidy up first."
“Go ahead,” Tang Li replied. “I’ll have someone take your family there in a bit.”
After thanking her, Su Yan, leaning on her cane, led the two away.
There's no need for her to be too distant with Tang Li now. After all, they'll be doing business together in the future, and she won't hesitate to use her connections when necessary.
When they arrived at the house, Zhou Yuanqing and his friend were still working.
Zhou Yuanqing was still wearing a vest and shorts, and under the scorching sun, his clothes were soaked with sweat.
"Should I buy some ice to make drinks?" Su Yan asked as she walked in.
Zhou Yuanqing stopped what he was doing when he heard her voice, turned his head and frowned when he saw her appearance. "Are you injured?"
Su Yan didn't seem to care much: "There's a problem with the house in the village, so I have to move in early, but it won't affect your work."
The renovation is done on the outside; once the inside is cleaned, it's ready to move in.
Zhou Yuanqing glanced at her foot, which was wrapped in gauze, moved his lips, but in the end said nothing. He simply asked, "Do you want me to help you clean up?"
“No need,” she refused. “I’ve hired two bodyguards; they can help me with the cleaning. You two can go about your business.”
After saying that, she led her people inside.
Zhou Yuanqing stared at her retreating figure, his eyes swirling with emotion.
"Brother Yuanqing, stop looking and get back to work." One of the boys Zhou Yuanqing brought to work, named Liu Xiaoguo, teased, "Do you like this girl? If you do, go after her. You're not bad off, you earn a lot and you're good at many things, it's just that the work is a bit tiring."
Zhou Yuanqing immediately looked away, glanced at Liu Xiaoguo, and said coldly, "Don't talk nonsense."
His aura turned colder, and Liu Xiaoguo said awkwardly, "Just kidding, Brother Yuanqing, don't take it to heart."
Zhou Yuanqing didn't say anything more, and seemed a little distracted while working.
Although he earns a lot of money, doing these things is not respectable.
Young women tend to prefer men who are respectable, powerful, and wealthy.
Besides, Su Yan is very capable and knows how to earn money. She will probably find a suitable partner to marry in the future.
For some reason, the thought of her future wedding made Zhou Yuanqing feel suffocated and uncomfortable all over.
As soon as Su Yan entered the room, she started arranging tasks for Guo Changcheng.
"Brother Cheng, you're in charge of cleaning the house, making sure it's clean from top to bottom."
"Chang-ge, go to the department store and buy me some clothes. Buy three sets for each of the two elderly people, a three-year-old, a primary school student, and my mother and me. Just buy the most fashionable styles right now."
"Also, there are no daily necessities here. Buy enough for six people."
After Su Yan finished speaking, she took out three hundred yuan and gave it to Guo Chang, saying, "If it's not enough, you can pay for it first, and bring it back to me if you have more."
Guo Chang responded, took the money, and went out.
As for the furniture, Liang Shuang only packed her luggage before leaving; she didn't take any of the furniture from the house, including the bed and the like.
Moreover, the furniture he bought at that time was the best and most practical, so there was no need to buy any more.
Su Yan lay comfortably on the sofa.
She's very tired but can't sleep; she's also a little agitated.
This house was the first one she bought after coming into this world, and it was also the final resting place of her beginnings.
Although it wasn't as big as the one in her previous life, it made her feel incredibly secure.
Moreover, she feels that her life now is happier and more comfortable than her previous life.
You may encounter many awful people, but compared to the cunning and ruthless old foxes in social situations, these are nothing.
She thought about many things and fell asleep without realizing it.
at the same time.
The Su family.
Lou Kai led his men to Old Su's house. Looking at the messy surroundings, he frowned in disgust, but had no choice but to endure it.
Grandpa Su poured a cup of tea with great courtesy, and asked with a fawning smile, "May I ask how you are addressed?"
The man was wearing a suit and had someone with him beside him. He looked very imposing and was clearly a high-ranking leader.
Although we don't know the purpose of their sudden visit, it's always good to treat them well.
Lou Kai raised his chin and said arrogantly, "I am the manager of Fanghua Restaurant in Lan City. Is your granddaughter Su Yan?"
Upon hearing this name, Old Master Su's heart skipped a beat.
After considering his words for a moment, he replied vaguely, "Su Yan is indeed my granddaughter, but her parents are divorced, and she went back to her mother's home. She doesn't have a good relationship with us. Is there something you need from her?"
“She’s still your granddaughter even if she’s with her mother, so it’s not a big deal.” Lou Kai smiled contemptuously. “I won’t beat around the bush with you. I’ve got my eye on the braised food recipe your granddaughter has and wanted to buy it, but she refused. If you can persuade her to sell the recipe to me, I’ll give you five hundred yuan as a thank you fee.”
Five hundred yuan?!
Old Master Su didn't show it on his face, but he was genuinely surprised. He tentatively asked, "So how much do you plan to spend on this formula?"
"Ten thousand yuan." Lou Kai exhaled a puff of smoke. "The highest price was twelve thousand, which isn't low, but she refused. She doesn't like money. Surely you, as her grandfather, wouldn't dislike it?"
Grandpa Su was shocked once again!
That 500 yuan fee is nothing compared to 12,000 yuan!
Grandpa Su's heart was burning with anxiety; he wished he could immediately go to Su Yan and ask her to write down the recipe for the braised dishes.
What an idiot! She dared to refuse ten thousand yuan, who gave her the guts?
After the initial excitement, Grandpa Su became even more dissatisfied with Su Yan and immediately declared, "Don't worry, she's young and doesn't know any better. As her grandfather, I will definitely teach her a lesson and make her sell the formula to you no matter what!"
After saying that, Old Master Su rubbed his hands together and asked, "However... Manager Lou, could you please give me the money first? Su Yan is rebellious and too young to carry so much money."
Lou Kai saw through Old Master Su's thoughts at a glance, raised an eyebrow, and did not refuse.
Why did Su Yan dare to disrespect him like that? She insisted on going against him, so he wouldn't mind teaching her a lesson.
"Okay, but I need the formula within a week, otherwise I won't give you a single penny of that five hundred yuan."
"Yes, yes, yes." Old Master Su didn't mind Lou Kai's attitude at all, and smiled broadly. "You can rest assured to leave things to me."
