Jiang Chengle sent Xiao Muyu photos of everyone's Christmas Eve gathering, which directly prompted this homesick person to end her scar repair treatment and pack her bags overnight to return to China before New Year's Day.
When Jiang Xiaoli came to pick her up at the airport, she looked her up and down and said, "Ms. Xiao Muyu, the original treatment plan still has about ten days left. Are you sure you're okay to rush back like this?"
Xiao Muyu put his arm around her shoulder, "Really, it's okay! How could I not take responsibility for myself? I've checked with the doctor many times, and I'm recovering faster than expected, so don't worry."
Xiao Jincheng was the happiest person today. Ignoring the stares of those around him, he picked up Xu Feng and spun her around, exclaiming, "Wife! You're finally back!"
Jiang Xiaoli chuckled as she linked arms with Xiao Muyu, "Have you noticed that Uncle Xiao has looked so thin and haggard since you went to Great Britain with Auntie for two months?"
Just then, a head popped up next to them and whispered, "Me too, I've lost weight too!"
Xiao Muyu glanced at him shyly, "Keep your voice down!"
Jiang Chengle quickly covered his mouth and nodded to indicate that he understood.
1997 arrived quietly amidst this atmosphere of family reunion.
As the clock struck midnight, Jiang Xiaoli leaned against Zong Jiayu's chest, watching the fireworks bloom in the distance. "Ayu, it's a new year again."
Zong Jia held her in his arms and said, "Yes, time really flies. Little Pear's birthday is coming up soon."
She chuckled softly, turned around, and looked at him face to face. "Do you keep a little notebook in your mind, counting down the days every day?"
Zong Jiayu smiled and said, "March 5th, the 27th day of the first lunar month, the day of Jingzhe (Awakening of Insects), is an auspicious day for marriage."
Pictures don't lie, haha
"Haha." She smiled and gently touched his chin. "Really? You're not just making this up, are you?"
“That’s what it says on the almanac, so it’s definitely an auspicious day,” Zong Jiayu said cheerfully.
Jiang Xiaoli nodded, "I'll talk to my grandma and the others about the wedding during the Spring Festival."
Zong Jia gently kissed her between the eyebrows, "It's okay, no need to rush, slow and steady wins the race."
Suddenly a shout interrupted them, "Brother Zong! Little Pear! There's no heating on the balcony, aren't you cold? Come in and play games!"
Jiang Xiaoli chuckled and took Zong Jiayu's hand as they entered the house.
"Come on, let's play something!"
...
With the New Year's Day holiday over and the entrance exams at Kyoto University underway, "Dr. Pei" has also entered the final preparation stage before its opening.
On the 4th, the day before the opening, Tian Shijun suddenly called to report, "Chairman Jiang, the Shanghai flagship store has suddenly received an order for 100 sets of the entire product line."
The pricing of "Dr. Pei" is absolutely in line with its positioning as a high-end whitening skincare product. 100 sets of the entire product line is almost half of the inventory of their several flagship stores.
Jiang Xiaoli didn't pay much attention. "Our advertising and promotion have been in full swing these past two days. They're probably fans of the spokesperson. We should maintain good contact with our major clients and send them more gifts."
On the 5th, 13 "Dr. Pei" stores opened simultaneously across the country. The high-end decoration of the stores made some small counters of similar skin care products look dull.
In particular, five of the flagship stores also have beauty areas for VIP members, where professional beauticians provide skincare and maintenance services, ensuring a superior customer experience.
That evening, Jiang Xiaoli looked at the sales figures for "Dr. Pei's" opening day and couldn't help but kiss the report. "This profit might be higher than running a shady business, right?"
Her eyes darted around, and she sent the data to Jiang Ruixin's email address with the message, "Second Uncle, you can start preparing the transfer procedures now!"
Zong Jia, who came to pick her up from get off work, looked at her and smiled like a little fox, "Congratulations, Little Pear, you fought a brilliant battle."
Jiang Xiaoli became modest at this moment, "I also invested a lot in the early stages, and the advertising and promotion were overwhelming. It's bound to make some noise, right?"
However, she couldn't hide her joy, "Hehe, I reckon the New Year gift package will be a sure thing once it's launched."
With just over 30 days until the Spring Festival, "Dr. Pei" has prepared a New Year's gift package.
Many people may be reluctant to buy expensive skincare products for themselves, but when it comes to the annual Spring Festival, giving a gift that suits the lady of the house is a headache for many. Jiang Xiaoli wholeheartedly supports the event planned by Tian Shijun.
This strategy not only boosts product sales but also successfully targets the right audience for "Dr. Pei".
Zong Jia listened with a smile as she finished explaining her plans. "Chairman Jiang is awesome, but you should also take care of your health. We should go home now."
Jiang Xiaoli glanced at her watch; she had been waiting for today's sales data to be compiled, and it was now almost 11 o'clock.
She nodded quickly, "Yes, yes, I'll be right back. I have an exam tomorrow morning!"
She packed her things, and Zong Jia helped her save her files and shut down the computer. "How many exams are left?"
Jiang Xiaoli thought for a moment, "After tomorrow's exam, there are only 4 subjects left, but they are all in the week after next, so the battle is going to drag on a bit."
As soon as they arrived at "Heyuan", they saw Hu Jingxin and Zhong Yuan pulling and arguing downstairs.
Jiang Xiaoli chuckled, then suddenly jumped out from the bushes next to Zong Jia, who was hiding there.
Hey! What are you doing?
Hu Jingxin was so frightened that she threw herself into Zhong Yuan's arms.
Zhong Yuan quickly patted her back to comfort her, "Little Pear, do you know that being a servant can be terrifying?"
"Look at you two, so cowardly." She raised her chin. "What are you doing here in the middle of the night instead of going home?"
Zhong Yuan immediately grabbed her and complained, "Little Pear, you be the judge. Xin Xin has a two-day break in the middle of her exams. She's going back to Shanghai the day after tomorrow to celebrate her grandfather's birthday, but she won't take me with her. Do you think that's appropriate?"
Hu Jingxin immediately retorted, "I already told you that my cousin was bringing her boyfriend home that day, and I didn't want the relatives to compare the two of you!"
"I don't mind being compared to others..."
Jiang Xiaoli quickly pulled the two young couple who were about to start fighting apart.
She told Zhong Yuan, "Xin Xin's consideration is not wrong. If you are not as good as her cousin's boyfriend, it will be embarrassing for Xin Xin's family. If you are better than her cousin's boyfriend, you will steal the limelight from him, since her cousin has spoken to her first."
Hu Jingxin linked her arm with hers, "That's right! That's exactly what Xiaoli meant!"
She pouted and said unhappily, "It's not that I'm unwilling to introduce you to my family. You've already met my parents, so it's not a big deal if you meet other relatives. But it's really not appropriate for Grandpa to celebrate his birthday this time!"
Zhong Yuan realized at this moment that he had been a bit reckless.
He touched his ear guiltily, "I'm sorry, Xin Xin. I didn't think of that. I only heard you didn't want me to go, and I got anxious because I thought you didn't want to."
"Hmph!" Hu Jingxin stomped her foot in a huff. "If you don't believe me, I don't want to talk to you today!"
After saying that, she turned around and ran towards the elevator. Zhong Yuan quickly chased after her to comfort her.
Jiang Xiaoli watched the two figures disappear into the distance, then smiled and shook her head. "Let's wait for the next elevator."
Zong Jia couldn't bear to look at his good friend at the elevator entrance with such a fawning expression, so he replied, "Okay."
