"Just buying some fruit on the way. Is Lu Feng awake yet?"
"It's already past nine o'clock, how can he not be awake?" Lu Wancai knocked on Lu Feng's door and said, "Your uncle, your sister Yao Yao, and brother-in-law are here, come out quickly."
Lu Feng was indeed surprised to see Han Qiong again. He didn't expect him to stay, and even more unexpectedly, he started to dress more modestly, wearing a slightly worn casual outfit.
"Did I disturb your rest?" Han Qiong hurriedly stood up, slightly bowing, his face full of apology.
"It's alright, please sit down. What does this mean?" Lu Feng was a little confused by the situation.
“Brother Lu Feng, I’ve never asked you for anything before, but I came here today to ask you for a favor.” Yao Yao glanced at Han Qiong beside her, then turned back and said, “Your brother-in-law doesn’t have any proper work, so I’d like you to arrange something for him.”
"Isn't Han Qiong the chairman?" Lu Wancai asked, puzzled.
"Uncle, I was a liar, all of that was fake. Now that I have Yao Yao and a family, I've turned over a new leaf and want to find a stable job." Han Qiong looked like he had really repented.
Lu Feng's heart skipped a beat when he heard this. He had heard of prodigal sons returning home, but such a quick turnaround must be suspicious. After a moment's thought, he understood.
"Where can I find a job?" Lu Feng sat down with difficulty. "You don't know much about Jiaming Foods. They've laid off a lot of people. I don't even know if I can stay after the New Year. I might have to go work in a factory in the south."
"As long as I get in, that's fine. I just want to know if I can use your name to get in? I don't mean anything by it, I just think it'll be easier to get by," Han Qiong said.
After the New Year, Lu Feng will no longer concern himself with Jiamei Foods. Lu Feng understands his intentions very well: he wants to use his influence to act arrogantly and domineeringly. With his years of swindling and deception, using Lu Feng's name, not only will he not have to worry about food and drink, but getting rich will also be an easy thing for him.
However, at the grassroots level, not many people in the factory really knew Lu Feng. After the New Year, Lu Feng's overall focus was also shifting south, so there was no need to care too much about some things.
If he can manipulate these big businessmen using only the name Lu Feng, then he certainly has some skills.
After thinking for a while, Lu Feng said, "Sure, if Jiaming Foods does a good job, it can still make money, it's just a bit tiring."
"Should I come find you then and go straight to the factory?" Han Qiong asked.
"No need, I might really quit after the New Year. Just go to the HR department's recruitment office. They'll definitely need a lot of people after the New Year. People leave and join the factory every day, there's plenty!" Lu Feng said.
"Do you know any leaders or anything like that? Try to mentor him, but don't make him too tired. Ideally, he could be in charge of someone!" Yao Yao suggested.
"I'm just a group leader, I can't manage a few people, how could that be?" Lu Feng declined.
"But I heard you're a leader there..."
"Alright, stop talking nonsense." Han Qiong hurriedly interrupted Yao Yao. He knew very well that Lu Feng didn't want him to get involved with anyone. He wanted to get into the factory first!
After exchanging pleasantries, they didn't stay for lunch and left around 10 a.m. After seeing off his uncle's family, Lu Wancai was very happy, his face full of smiles.
I never expected to marry a chairman of the board, and a fake one at that. Compared to him, my own son is definitely the most awesome!
Lu Feng naturally understood Lu Wancai's ulterior motives and could only sigh inwardly, "It's no wonder that someone raised in such a family is twisted."
The next day, every household put up couplets, and the sound of firecrackers became more frequent. For some reason, they started popping and crackling, or perhaps it was simply because everyone was in a good mood.
People on the street were dressed neatly, their faces full of smiles. Whether the year was good or bad, it was over, and the TV was full of New Year's greetings.
Time is like a cycle, and these scenes always seem so familiar, yet slightly different.
In 1991, the Year of the Sheep, the New Year's Eve dinner was dumplings. When the Spring Festival Gala arrived as scheduled, the whole family sat there watching it with great enthusiasm. Lu Feng watched these skits, which would be replayed countless times later, and felt a mix of emotions.
"This year is not a good year to have children, especially those born in the Year of the Sheep!" Lu Feng's mother muttered to herself as she sat there.
