Chapter 395 The Influence of the Original Family
Dong Mingliang was really grateful to see Lin Xiaoxia coming, but he didn't say much, for fear that others would think he was deliberately trying to build a relationship with the leader.
Lin Xiaoxia looked at his expression and smiled: "Why are you so suspicious? Don't think too much. You are Xiao'e and I's classmate. There is nothing to hide."
Dong Mingliang scratched his head and smiled: "Yeah, I understand."
"We are having a party with friends tonight, and it's a good opportunity for you to come too. I want to talk to Xiao E about something first, so you go ahead and get busy." Lin Xiaoxia said.
"Well, then I'll get to work first." After Dong Mingliang finished speaking, he hurried to get busy. He needed to get familiar with the environment since he had just arrived, so Fang Lan'e asked him to get familiar with it in the lobby.
Lin Xiaoxia went upstairs and talked to Fang Lan'e about Li Jingyi. Since they were best friends, they had to complain about this kind of thing first.
After hearing what Lin Xiaoxia said, Fang Lan'e was helpless. How could this woman be so shameless?
The two of them complained for a while before starting to talk about the dinner party in the evening.
Fang Lan'e had made preparations and had basically determined the number of dishes based on the number of people, so Lin Xiaoxia didn't have to worry about it.
Then they talked about Dong Mingliang's situation. It was not easy for him either, especially with his family situation. In fact, the two of them were more worried about Dong Mingliang's sister. They were both girls who were abused by their families when they were young, so they felt more pity for this child.
Lin Xiaoxia knew that if she had not traveled through time, the original owner's life or death would not be certain. It was all because of the influence of her original family. Perhaps she had been caught in the rain and always wanted to hold an umbrella for others, especially little girls in the same environment.
Fang Lan'e understood even more clearly the life she had lived in which she was oppressed by her grandmother since childhood, so both of them hoped that Dong Mingliang would be able to make money in the future and take his sister out as soon as possible so that the little girl would not be abused by her grandmother.
While the two were talking, Sun Qiang's uncle Feng Yuanshan came with a big cake.
Seeing Feng Yuanshan coming, Lin Xiaoxia stood up and greeted him, "Uncle." Then she introduced him to Fang Lan'e, "This is Qiangzi's uncle I told you about before, the one who runs a cake shop."
Fang Lan'e also stood up and greeted Feng Yuanshan: "Hello, uncle."
Feng Yuanshan smiled and handed the cake over: "I heard from Xiaoqiang that your new store opened smoothly and you want to celebrate. I made a cake for you as a token of my appreciation."
Lin Xiaoxia said, "Uncle, if you're not busy, why don't you join us here tonight to have some fun."
Feng Yuanshan said, "I have things to do in the shop. Besides, you are all young people. I am here to disturb your fun."
Lin Xiaoxia smiled and said, "My uncle is older than us, but he's not much older than us. You're making yourself look old."
Feng Yuanshan said, "I'm just older than you guys, so I won't join in the fun." Then he smiled and said to Lin Xiaoxia, "I've always wanted to thank you, girl. Business is booming in the store now, and I can't handle it all by myself, so I've taken on an apprentice. I heard you got into night school, so I'll make you a cake before school starts. I don't know how to make anything else, but this is just a small token of my appreciation."
Lin Xiaoxia wasn't polite either. Sometimes accepting some gifts would make the other person feel more at ease. "Okay, then I won't be polite to my uncle. By the way, I'm planning to organize some activities for the store. For example, if someone has a birthday and comes to eat with their ID card, they can get a small birthday cake for free. This will attract more customers. Then we can order the cake from my uncle's store. This way we all win."
Feng Yuanshan asked, "You guys are giving out coupons and cakes, can't you compensate me?"
Lin Xiaoxia smiled and said, "Don't worry, uncle. We have the budget for this, and this kind of activity can retain old customers and attract new ones. It's appropriate."
Feng Yuanshan said, "That's good. I'll just charge you for the materials when the time comes, so you don't have to spend so much."
Lin Xiaoxia said, "Uncle, you don't need that. Just pay what you want. If your store doesn't provide it, we'll have to spend money to find someone else, and they may not be as good as you."
Feng Yuanshan thought for a moment and said, "Okay, then I promise to do my best for you."
"Well, let Xiao E come to discuss this matter with you in detail when the time comes." Lin Xiaoxia said.
While they were talking, Sanluzi also arrived. He knew Feng Yuanshan and called him uncle as soon as he came in.
Feng Yuanshan looked at them and said, "Today is your young people's party, so I will go back early. We can talk about the cake later."
Lin Xiaoxia and the others saw Feng Yuanshan off, said goodbye, and returned to the private room upstairs where they would have dinner in the evening, bringing the cake with them.
San Luzi also talked about Feng Yuanshan with Lin Xiaoxia and Fang Lan'e. He and Sun Qiang have known each other for many years and understand Feng Yuanshan better. This man is really infatuated.
Perhaps women have more respect for such infatuated men. Lin Xiaoxia and Fang Lan'e also respect men like Feng Yuanshan very much, but they also hope that he can get over it quickly.
After a while, Lu Jingshen also arrived. He came directly after get off work. When he saw Lin Xiaoxia, Lu Jingshen always had that doting smile on his face.
Less than two minutes after he arrived, Sun Qiang and Lin Fangfang came in holding hands.
The three donkeys took the lead and started to make a fuss: "Hey, what's going on? Holding hands?"
Sun Qiang said proudly, "From now on, Fangfang and I will be lovers. I'm officially announcing this to everyone today."
Sanluzi stepped forward and said to Lin Fangfang, "Sister-in-law, please take care of me in the future."
Lin Fangfang blushed at what Sanluzi said, and didn't know how to respond, so she nodded: "Yeah." But she actually liked this name very much.
Sun Qiang patted Sanluzi's shoulder and said, "Stop messing around. Our Fangfang is shy."
Sanluzi groaned, "It's over. You're all in pairs, and I'm going to be bullied." Then he said to Fang Lan'e, "Sister, let's form an alliance from now on."
Fang Lan'e smiled and said, "Okay, after all, our team is bigger, and Huiyan will be here soon."
The three donkeys said, "Yes, they are just two people in a group. Our group is bigger than theirs."
While chatting and laughing, Ju Huiyan also arrived and directly formed an alliance with Sanluzi and Fang Lan'e.
Seeing that most people had arrived, Fang Lan'e went downstairs to ask the waiter to serve the dishes, and also called Dong Mingliang up to meet him and his friends.
It was just that Dong Mingliang had just entered the private room, and before Fang Lan'e could introduce him, Ju Huiyan excitedly walked over and said, "You are the kind person who helped me get my bag back that day."
Dong Mingliang looked at Ju Huiyan and said with a smile, "What a coincidence! I didn't expect to meet you here."
Ju Huiyan said, "The other day I said I'd take you to the hospital, but you refused to go and refused to pay for the medical expenses. In the end, I actually forgot to ask for your name and contact information. I was wondering how I could find you, but I didn't expect to meet you here. It's great. I really want to thank you."
Dong Mingliang said, "It's just a piece of cake for me, don't worry about it."
