"Thank you, Auntie. I like it very much!"
Ding Miaomiao opened the glasses case, which contained a pair of black-framed glasses. The frames were all styles chosen by Du Chen, so they were quite avant-garde.
"Miaomiao, when you can't see clearly, just wear your glasses. Don't stare too hard. The more you stare, the faster your vision will deteriorate. It's not good for your eyes. Do you understand?"
Ren Surong gave Ding Miaomiao another reminder.
"Don't worry, Auntie, I'll put on my glasses if I can't see clearly!"
Ding Miaomiao said to Ren Surong. Du Chen, who was standing by, looked at the glasses and suddenly thought of blue light blocking glasses. He planned to have a good chat with his mother when he got home that night. This gimmick of preventing myopia should make parents willingly pay for it.
Time flies, and before we know it, the weather has turned cooler. Du Chen's latest project, the water plant, has finally been completed, and the next step of preparation can begin. Du Bin and Ding Miaomiao will also face the city-level mathematics knowledge competition.
"Brother Chen, the water plant will have a trial run tomorrow. Aren't you going there tomorrow?"
Xiami once again found Du Chen, hoping that Du Chen could attend the opening production tomorrow.
"What the hell, I've told you guys so many times that I won't be attending! Tomorrow, Brother Li and you are enough. What's the point of me going? Don't bother trying to convince me!"
Du Chen looked at Xiami in front of him helplessly. Because of this matter, Li Dewen and Xiami had come to him many times, and every time the topic was about asking him to attend the opening ceremony.
"Brother Chen, you are the largest shareholder and the brains of our company. If you don't attend, we won't feel confident!"
Xiami said to Du Chen in distress, and when he came here today, his boss Li Dewen repeatedly emphasized that Du Chen must be invited over, but Du Chen was determined and refused to do so no matter what he said.
"Xia Mi, can you first tell me who will be attending tomorrow?"
Du Chen asked Xiami curiously. He was now a completely hands-off boss. Usually, some matters were decided by Li Dewen and Xiami alone. He felt that it didn't matter whether he was there or not, and he really didn't want to join in the fun in crowded places.
"Tomorrow the boss's uncle and village cadres from Shangqiao Village will be in attendance. The boss has also invited the township head through his uncle, but I don't know if the township head will be in attendance."
Xiami said to Du Chen honestly.
"Look, you've even invited the village head to attend. Would it be appropriate for me to go? When a bunch of leaders see me, they'll think one of you is bringing your kids over to play. How will they be impressed by you? Otherwise, if you introduce me to them as the big boss, they'll think you're joking! And how can these leaders trust a kid like me? Haven't you heard that a simple talker can't do anything solid?"
Du Chen tried hard to find a lot of reasons to tell Xiami, in short, he just didn't want to show up in public.
"Brother Chen, this..."
Xiami had a bitter face and didn't know how to argue with Du Chen anymore.
"Okay, stop talking about this and that. Just tell me if what I said makes sense."
Du Chen interrupted Xiami and asked him.
"It seems to make some sense."
"What do you mean it seems to make sense? This is absolutely true, okay? I'm an adult, and I don't believe a child can invest in opening a water plant!"
Du Chen said to Xiami unhappily.
"Brother Chen, how do I tell the boss? The boss asked me to come here today because he hoped I could change your mind!"
Xiami had no choice but to ask Du Chen for help. He knew his own pain and it was difficult for him to do anything being caught between the two of them.
"No, what are you and Brother Li afraid of? Aren't you shareholders? Aren't you the boss? Why do you insist on letting me go?"
Du Chen understood that Li Dewen and Xiami were simply afraid. After all, the village chief would likely be in attendance tomorrow for the opening ceremony. How could they, small-time thugs, not be afraid? Ordinary people would be apprehensive, let alone Li Dewen and his gang. But ultimately, Du Chen himself was afraid too. After all, he had never experienced anything like this in his previous life, and the highest-ranking official he'd ever met was the community director.
"Brother Chen, how can we not be afraid? After all, none of us have ever come into contact with the leader!"
Xiami said to Du Chen with a wry smile.
"Don't be afraid. This will happen eventually. Don't worry, the sooner you die, the sooner you'll be reborn! Besides, you're here as investors. The village is welcoming you and they'll definitely not do anything to you!"
Du Chen now understands what it means to talk without any pain, and he has a lot of tricks up his sleeve when it comes to calculating other people's scores.
"Brother Chen..."
"Okay, forget about Brother Chen. I'm afraid you'll send me away again. I'll go talk to Brother Li in person tonight, okay?"
Du Chen also thought that he needed to remind Li Dewen of something, so he said to Xiami.
"Okay, Brother Chen, it's a deal then. You can talk to the boss in person tonight. I'll treat you to dinner! We'll see you at Shengyuan!"
When Xiami heard that Du Chen was going to meet Li Dewen in the evening, he was afraid that Du Chen would go back on his word, so he said something to Du Chen and immediately turned around and left. In order to prevent Du Chen from standing him up, he was also prepared to pay a lot of money. After all, the food at Heshengyuan was not cheap!
Du Chen felt a little depressed watching Xiami walk away. He had promised him something, so why would he go back on his word? This guy ran away so quickly because he didn't trust him at all! He was going to make Xiami bleed tonight.
Du Chen thought viciously in his heart.
"Chenchen, what was that just now?"
Du Bin who suddenly appeared suddenly said to Du Chen. Looking at the words that Du Bin who suddenly appeared suddenly said, Du Chen suddenly felt as if he had heard Du Bin say this before.
"Yeah. Just a shrimp!"
"Chenchen, tell me the truth, what did you do with them? Why do I see Xiami coming to see you every now and then? What is your relationship with them? You must be hiding something from me, right?"
Seeing Du Chen admit it, Du Bin asked Du Chen a series of questions.
"Nothing, we just happened to meet so we had a chat."
Du Chen cursed in his heart, but on the surface he lied calmly.
"Who are you kidding? Do you think I'm stupid? Why do hooligans like Li Dewen, Xiami, and Jiji respect you so much? Do you think I'm blind? Chenchen, tell me the truth, are you hanging out with them? If you don't tell the truth, I'll tell my parents and see how long you can keep your mouth shut!"
Du Bin had already noticed that there must be some secrets between his younger brother Du Chen and Li Dewen, but Xiami has been visiting Du Chen more and more frequently recently, and Du Bin felt a little unsure, so he decided to get to the bottom of it today.
