Chapter 60: Why is the corner of his mouth...broken...
So, just like that, Ji Chen naturally became Xia Zhonggeng's apprentice.
The two then talked about the factory for a while, and finally agreed on a price of 6.8 million.
Ji Chen originally planned to let the old man discuss it with his family, but the latter seemed to be afraid that he would change his mind, so they asked Ji Chen to take over the factory immediately and go with him to complete the property transfer procedures on a weekday after the National Day holiday.
Helpless, Ji Chen had to agree.
Anyway, he didn't take advantage of anyone, nor did he cheat him. It was all a legitimate transaction.
However, he felt that it was necessary to meet the other party's family when he had time, otherwise he would always feel uneasy.
Thinking of this, Ji Chen looked at Xia Zhonggeng and said, "Master, when will your family come back? I want to talk to them about buying the factory from you."
After hearing Ji Chen's words, the latter coughed twice unnaturally and said, "You don't have to mention this matter. You can't mention it. It's my own money and I make the decision myself!"
This was the property he bought with his private money. If his little granddaughter knew about it, she might report it to her grandmother. Wouldn't his private money be gone then?
This is the dowry money he will give to Wanwan in the future, it cannot be confiscated!
After all, Ji Chen had lived half his life. Seeing Xia Zhonggeng's expression, he understood it instantly and nodded. "Okay, then I won't mention it."
But he was still quite surprised. He didn't expect that Mr. Xia would actually hide some private money.
Then, the two chatted for a while, until Ji Chen went to the bathroom, and Xia Zhonggeng remembered his granddaughter.
So he quickly called the other party.
…
Yonghui Supermarket.
Bai Lianwan was following Lin Qingya to buy ingredients in the vegetable section of the supermarket.
Anyway, grandpa said before that he would arrive around 2 pm.
They buy some ingredients now and cook some food, so that it can be ready before the old man comes back.
"Wow, this potato is so pretty. I'll make a curry potato."
As Lin Qingya spoke, she took the bag and started picking potatoes from the shelf.
Not to mention anything else, but when it comes to cooking, Lin Qingya, as a veteran foodie, can be said to be very professional.
This was also one of the requirements for Bai Lianwan to agree to accompany Lin Qingya to the comic convention. She must be her exclusive husband in the future.
Just then, Bai Lianwan was about to join in picking potatoes when the phone in his pocket suddenly rang.
Pulling out his phone and seeing the incoming call note, Bai Lianwan immediately pressed the answer button and called out, "Grandpa, where are you? Qingya and I are at the supermarket buying groceries. I think we'll have dinner ready for you before two o'clock!"
The kind and gentle voice of the person on the other end of the phone came over immediately, "I'm already home. Why did you come so early and clean the yard so cleanly?"
"Ah? Then let's get back as soon as we get the food!"
Bai Lianwan was a little surprised. She didn't expect the old man to arrive so soon.
"Well, but you need to buy more food because we have a guest at home." Xia Zhonggeng said with a smile.
When Bai Lianwan heard what the other party said, she nodded immediately and said, "Okay, we'll go back later."
My grandfather has always had a lot of friends. I guess someone knew he was back in Jiangcheng and came to visit him.
But this person was really fast. He came to my house just as my grandfather got home.
The two must have contacted each other in advance.
After the call ended, Lin Qingya had already picked a large bag of potatoes.
"Qingya, grandpa is home, and there are guests at home, so we need to buy more ingredients."
"Ah, you're here so early! I already bought some extra ingredients for storage. Let's buy some garlic and onions and hurry home!"
"good!"
After saying that, two graceful figures pushed the carts and started shopping at a faster pace.
…
Ji Chen returned to the yard.
Started chatting with Xia Zhonggeng again.
While chatting, he suddenly felt his phone vibrate. He took it out and saw that it was a message from Yun Chuan.
"Old Ji, I only noticed my dorm key when I flushed the toilet. I didn't have time to retrieve it. Zhao Ran and Fan Zhuo aren't here either. I can't get into the dorm when you come back."
"I'm going on a date with Yiyi this afternoon, and the gift I carefully prepared is still in the dormitory."
Next, there's a picture of a toilet.
Seeing these messages, Ji Chen was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
It's only been a month since school started, and this guy has already lost his keys three times...
Putting the phone back in his pocket, Ji Chen said to Xia Zhonggeng, "Master, I have something urgent to do at school. I have to go back first. I will visit your family next time."
Xia Zhonggeng, who was originally in a good mood, froze his smile when he heard Ji Chen's words. He said, "Ah, don't you want to stay home for lunch? My granddaughter and the others should be back soon."
He was planning to play a game of chess with Ji Chen after dinner.
Ji Chen shook his head and said, "Next time, my classmate is busy. If you are free sometime this afternoon, how about I go with you to take over the factory?"
Xia Zhonggeng lowered his head. Although he was not very happy, he nodded and said, "Okay, I'll contact you later."
"good."
After greeting Xia Zhong, Xia Zhonggeng sent Ji Chen out the door, and the two said goodbye and left.
Now that the factory issue has been settled, Ji Chen will not take a detour from the big banyan tree to see other factories. He can just take a taxi directly from the shortcut out of the village.
…
Xia Keli Village.
Two figures carrying large and small bags of food were hurrying home.
Just pass the corner ahead and walk a little further and you'll be home.
"I didn't expect Grandpa to arrive so early. He must be hungry now!"
"Yeah, otherwise we would have gone grocery shopping earlier."
"That's late, why don't we take Grandpa to the hotel for dinner?"
When he reached the corner, Bai Lianwan heard Lin Qingya's words and subconsciously turned to look at her without slowing down his pace. He didn't notice that a tall figure suddenly appeared in front of him and he directly bumped into the other person!
"He doesn't like eating outside—hiss..."
In an instant, Bai Lianwan felt a sharp pain in her face. Due to inertia, her body, which was much smaller than the other person's, staggered backwards and was about to fall!
"Hey hey hey!" Lin Qingya, who was standing by, saw this and couldn't react for a moment, so she screamed out.
And at the moment when Bai Lianwan widened her eyes and fell backwards.
A large hand suddenly reached for her waist and grabbed her tightly. Then, she bumped into the person in front of her again, and her whole body was instantly enveloped by a familiar aura.
She subconsciously raised her eyes, and what she saw was that delicate and handsome face, and his breath lightly caressing her cheek.
Seeing the face in front of her clearly, Bai Lianwan's whole body froze, blood kept rushing up, and a light pink layer suddenly appeared on her face.
he……
How come he is here?!
The corner of his mouth...why is it broken...
After Ji Chen took the little guy back into his arms, he was also slightly stunned.
How come she is here?
And this rosy little face, from this angle, looks so familiar...
