Chapter 388 Speaking of Li Jingyi
The next morning, Lu Jingshen returned to the city to work, and Lin Xiaoxia and Sun Qiang went to the store again.
After what happened yesterday, they became more cautious and made plans for these emergencies, telling the store manager and waiters how to deal with them.
Fortunately, there is a police station not far from them, so it is convenient to call the police if anything happens.
Lu Jingshen came over again in the evening, but there was nothing to do in the store today and everything was back on track, so the three of them went out early to find a place to eat and sit down to have a good chat.
The past few days have been tiring, but business has generally been going well. Sun Qiang said, "When we get back, we'll get together and celebrate the opening of our new store."
Lin Xiaoxia said, "Okay, it's time for us to get together anyway. Besides our friends, we can also invite relatives who like to have fun together. It will be more lively with more people."
Speaking of this, Sun Qiang suddenly remembered the day he met Li Jingyi, and said to Lu Jingshen, "Brother, I've been so busy these days that I almost forgot to tell you. I met your cousin Li Jingyi in the store that day. You're the same. You didn't even say hello when your relatives came to eat."
When Lu Jingshen heard the name, he frowned unconsciously: "Li Jingyi, what did she say to you?"
Sun Qiang was also puzzled. "She didn't tell me anything. I heard her telling her colleagues that we were cousins, so I went to say hello and added two dishes." After saying that, he felt something was wrong: "Brother, is there something wrong?"
Lu Jingshen said: "Li Jingyi's character is not very good. If she comes to you, try not to pay attention to her."
"That's it. I met her again in front of the hotel that day and talked to her a lot. She wanted to treat me to a meal, but I was busy and said I could wait for a chance in the future." Sun Qiang poured out all of this at once.
Lin Xiaoxia looked at Sun Qiang and said, "Your strengths are also your weaknesses. You trust people too easily, which makes you easily deceived."
Lin Xiaoxia knew that people of this generation were relatively trusting. For example, if you passed by someone's house in the countryside, you could go there and ask for water or even stay overnight, which would basically be acceptable.
There is also the influence of Sun Qiang's original family on him. Because his original family lacks care and affection, he sometimes longs for these things and is easily disturbed by them. Moreover, he is only in his early twenties and indeed lacks experience. Not everyone can be as calm and composed as Lu Jingshen.
Sun Qiang acknowledged what Lin Xiaoxia said and nodded: "Okay, I understand, sister-in-law. I will pay attention to it in the future."
"Qiangzi, you should be more careful in the future. After all, you are a businessman. It's not that we are suspicious, but we have to be." Lu Jingshen said to Sun Qiang.
Sun Qiang nodded seriously and said, "I understand, brother. I will be more careful in the future." After that, he asked Lin Xiaoxia and Lu Jingshen curiously, "What's going on with Li Jingyi?"
Lin Xiaoxia told Sun Qiang about Li Jingyi's situation, and then said, "This person has ulterior motives. I don't know what she is going to do now, but this person has bad character. She definitely has a crooked heart. We should just keep our distance from her."
Sun Qiang was also helpless after hearing this: "Why is this person like this? I hate women like this the most, like Wu Xiuyun, who bully the weak and fear the strong, and are troublesome."
Lu Jingshen said: "That's why I keep my distance from ordinary women. I hate these things."
Sun Qiang said, "Then I will learn from my brother. Except for those of us who are close, I will keep my distance from other women to avoid getting into trouble."
Lin Xiaoxia looked at the two of them and smiled: "Yes, such a good man deserves a good woman. Qiangzi's future partner is guaranteed to be excellent."
Sun Qiang lowered his head and poked the table with his hand: "I may have someone I like."
Lin Xiaoxia and Lu Jingshen looked at each other and smiled.
Sun Qiang looked at the two of them and asked, "What are you laughing at?"
Lu Jingshen said, "I'm laughing at your slow reaction."
Sun Qiang was still confused: "What's wrong with me?"
Lin Xiaoxia smiled and said, "We all see that you like Lin Fangfang."
"You saw it? Is it that obvious?" Sun Qiang looked at the two of them in disbelief.
Lu Jingshen nodded: "It's obvious, keep working hard, Lin Fangfang is a good match for you."
Sun Qiang scratched his head. "Ah, you figured it out? Then do you think Fangfang can like me?"
"I don't like you, so I pretend to be your girlfriend?" Lin Xiaoxia asked with a smile.
"So, sister-in-law, do you mean that Fangfang has been interested in me for a long time?" Sun Qiang stood up happily.
"What do you think? Be nice to others." Lin Xiaoxia said.
Lu Jingshen looked at Sun Qiang and smiled: "You are lucky, kid. To be honest, Lin Fangfang is really good. She rarely jokes with male colleagues at work. Her family background is also good. Anyway, you should cherish her."
Sun Qiang couldn't close his mouth with laughter: "No, you guys gave me some time, why do I feel so surprised?"
Lin Xiaoxia and Lu Jingshen looked at Sun Qiang with a smile and were happy for him because Lin Fangfang was indeed a good person.
Sun Qiang discussed with the two of them when it would be appropriate to start pursuing Lin Fangfang.
Lin Xiaoxia suggested that he let things take their own course and then find an opportunity to confess his feelings.
After saying this, we talked about when to return to the city.
Originally, Sun Qiang asked Lin Xiaoxia to go back to the city with Lu Jingshen tomorrow morning. He was busy enough here anyway, so it would be safer for Lin Xiaoxia to go back with Lu Jingshen.
However, Lin Xiaoxia said that she also wanted to visit her fourth uncle Wen Jizu, so she would take the train back to the city by herself tomorrow afternoon and would not go with Lu Jingshen in the morning.
Today was relatively relaxing. They waited for the two stores to close and then went to take stock. Basically, there was not much difference from Lingyuan City. There might be more customers here, more wealthy people, and more expensive dishes and wines ordered.
The next day, Lin Xiaoxia stayed in the store until the lunch rush hour ended, then went to Sun Qiang, told him about the store's affairs, and then went to the hospital to see Wen Jizu.
As soon as she arrived at the hospital entrance, she saw Zheng Qing setting up a stall not far away. Business was pretty good. She went over to greet Zheng Qing and asked her to get busy while she carried the fruit into the inpatient department.
As soon as I arrived at the floor where Wen Jizu's ward was, I saw Wen Jizu walking around with the help of crutches, his face rosy and he looked in good spirits.
When Wen Jizu saw Lin Xiaoxia coming, he quickened his pace and asked, "Xiaoxia, why are you here?" The crutch seemed to float a little when he moved faster.
Lin Xiaoxia hurried over to support Wen Jizu: "Uncle Jizu, be careful. I'm just opening a new store. I've been here for a few days and came to see you. How are you?"
"I'm fine. I'll be discharged this weekend. I'll just have two checkups in a month. I might have some minor issues, but it won't cause any problems."
"It's okay. We won't do heavy work in the future. We can rent out the land when the time comes. Whether it's opening a shop in your village or doing some business in the city, don't worry. Your niece has some business sense, even if I have to say nothing else."
"Girl, I heard from your father and your second uncle that your business has grown to the provincial capital and you opened two stores at once. It's a pity that I have such a bad leg that I didn't go to the store when you opened it."
"How about I take you out for a meal later? It's convenient for us to take a taxi."
"I won't bother with that. I'll wait until I'm better. I'll take the plaster off during the follow-up checkup. Now I have to use crutches everywhere I go. It's too inconvenient."
"After you remove the plaster, take Grandpa Wen and Auntie to Lingyuan City for a few days."
"Okay, wait until I can get by without crutches. Otherwise, it's hard to get a bus anywhere, and it's troublesome to do anything."
