"I don't think your opinion counts."
"What's the meaning?"
"What kind of products you can produce depends on what kind of team you have. You should start by considering that," A Lei advised at the right time, and Qin Xiaoyu found it very helpful.
Qin Xiaoyu was busy with the shop all the time, and would occasionally get distracted, inevitably neglecting A Lei.
“If you keep going like this, I’m really going to get jealous,” A Lei protested.
"Work and honeymoon at the same time, right?" Qin Xiaoyu said with a grin, still trying to use her beauty to seduce A Lei, but he wasn't falling for it anymore.
He took Qin Xiaoyu directly to Conghua. It's said that Third Sister owns businesses there.
After passing a large area of carved castles, we arrived at the Tonghua Hot Spring Area.
Qin Xiaoyu was amazed by the large number of sanatoriums. She hadn't expected that such a good place already existed in the 1980s.
From bustling city life to tranquility, surrounded by mountains and lush trees, one can see red brick and white tile buildings, pavilions and towers of various colors.
"This must be the area with the highest concentration of sanatoriums in the country. Look over there, that's the earliest Yuhuxi Pavilion. In front is Bibo Bridge, and over there is the legendary General's Building. The Great One must have come here for recuperation. There's a lake above Baizhang Feitao, which is also worth seeing. It's up to you, do you want to travel around and enjoy the scenery, or..." A Lei looked over with innocent eyes, "...stay home and have babies."
"Of course I'd play around with someone as innocent as me!" It would be strange if Qin Xiaoyu wasn't tempted; her hand just wouldn't listen and quietly moved to another spot.
A Lei took Qin Xiaoyu to the sanatorium run by his third sister.
It's all Japanese style, and looks like it hasn't been open for long. Business is already booming.
"I remember my third sister saying that she was the poorest in the Fang family."
"Indeed, she was the poorest."
Qin Xiaoyu groaned inwardly. Well, the Fang family might have some misunderstanding about poverty.
This sanatorium alone requires a significant investment, and its daily revenue probably surpasses the combined profits of Qin Xiaoyu's three factories and four retail outlets. She still needs to work harder.
The Fang family members are all born into privilege, directly at the finish line, while Qin Xiaoyu has to run there herself; the difference is enormous.
"She was mainly doing it for her own convenience," A Lei said, and Qin Xiaoyu believed him.
Upon entering the main gate, one finds low wooden houses, with wooden bridges and corridors lining the passageways. A-Lei, being acquainted with the manager, went directly to stay in the third sister's private room.
"Let's not stay in her room, we can stay in the guest room," Qin Xiaoyu said worriedly.
"Don't worry, Third Sister won't care. If she did, she wouldn't be my Third Sister." A Lei understood Third Sister's personality.
Dinner was delivered to the room. The Cantonese-style stir-fried crab wasn't to Qin Xiaoyu's taste, and she only ate half before throwing the rest away. The sago and yam soup, however, was much more to her liking; she drank a whole bowl of it, even finishing A Lei's portion.
"Let's soak in the hot springs." A Lei handed her a white cotton bathrobe. Qin Xiaoyu put on the loose robe, tied her hair into a ponytail, and followed behind A Lei like a child, heading towards the hot spring area.
The hot springs here are all open-air, separated by bamboo groves and trees. Some dim light bulbs are strung up, and shadowy figures appear and disappear, with laughter occasionally drifting out from behind the bushes.
They found a secluded spot before taking off their bathrobes and going into the water. Qin Xiaoyu wore a one-piece swimsuit, not because she was conservative, but because A Lei insisted.
As she stepped into the hot spring, she felt a buoyant force lifting her up, almost causing her to fall in. Ah Lei reacted quickly and pulled her out.
"What's your rush?" Afraid that she would choke on the water, A Lei carefully helped her to sit on the stone steps before standing in front of her.
"What are you looking at here? Go sit down over there, I won't fall again... Ouch!" Qin Xiaoyu slipped and fell again without noticing.
This time, she was riding on top of A Lei, wrapped her arms around his waist and around his neck, and dared not let go.
"Soaking in hot springs is very tiring. Your physical condition isn't good, so it's not suitable for you to do it here," A Lei said patiently.
"What nonsense are you talking about!" Qin Xiaoyu was so angry that she wanted to let go, but she didn't dare.
"If you're in a hurry, let's go back now." A Lei's body was still quite honest; his true form was already revealed under his shorts.
"Yang Yuhuan's maid helped her up, so weak and listless. Was it really because she was soaking in the hot spring?" Qin Xiaoyu suddenly wondered.
"If you insist, give it a try." A Lei gently untied the straps of her swimsuit, revealing half of her body.
"No, someone will come. Let's go back to the room." Qin Xiaoyu's experienced driver instincts resurfaced.
"You're such a smooth talker, but you'll be the one begging for mercy later." As he spoke, A Lei gently bit the tip of her nose, and the two of them were already inseparable.
"Oh dear!" came a gasp from the side.
A Lei hurriedly placed Qin Xiaoyu by the pool, put on a bathrobe, and went around the bushes to check on her.
A fat woman was lying on the ground groaning; she looked like she had fallen. Qin Xiaoyu also jogged over.
A Lei escorted the fat woman back to her residence.
"I was just dizzy from soaking in the water for too long, but it's nothing, thank you." The plump woman had fair skin and spoke Mandarin, clearly not a local.
"I've asked the waiter to bring over some sweet soup. We're leaving now." Qin Xiaoyu winked at A Lei.
"This is my business card. I sell clothes on Renmin Road. Come over and pick out something; I'll give it to you for free." The woman was very generous.
Upon hearing that she was in the same industry, Qin Xiaoyu took note and accepted the business card with both hands. It read: Ye Qiu Women's Clothing.
The fat woman's name is Ye Qiu.
When A Lei brought Ye Qiu back, Qin Xiaoyu had already dried her hair and was lying on the tatami mat. Her entire body was wrapped in a bathrobe, with only a section of her smooth, slender calves showing.
Little vixen, tempting me again.
A Lei understood immediately and went closer to find that Qin Xiaoyu was indeed asleep.
She probably really is the type who moves around constantly as soon as she opens her eyes, swimming back and forth incessantly; it's rare to see her so quiet.
A Lei lay beside her, tilting his head to carefully examine his little vixen.
Baby faces have a natural advantage in making you look younger. This face looks like it belongs to someone who is only twenty years old. Her delicate and fair skin is like freshly peeled egg white, bouncy and smooth. A Lei likes to pinch her little cheeks and watch her get annoyed.
And those big, bright eyes that always darted around so cleverly, when they lost all their sharpness, were so gentle they could drown you in tenderness. Her straight nose, with its slightly upturned tip, was her most charming feature; a woman with a touch of mischief is the most adorable, isn't she?
Is that pouty little mouth, like a red cherry, waiting for him to kiss it?
A Lei couldn't stand it anymore and reached out to pull at her robe.
"I didn't sleep, I was waiting for you." Qin Xiaoyu mumbled, snuggling into his arms without even opening her eyes.
A Lei chuckled as he recalled that on their first night, she had also fallen asleep in a daze.
But things are different now. How can an experienced driver who has unlocked the system just wait to enjoy it? Shouldn't they contribute their share?
Qin Xiaoyu opened her eyes instantly, now fully awake.
Are's hot lips moved over her body, and the passion that had been interrupted in the hot spring was rekindled.
She's going to fight back...
