When Ding Huaixiao saw Feng Haidong and Lu Yaobin arrive, he warmly welcomed them and led them into his office to talk.
Lu Wanling originally intended to take her little niece to the office, but unexpectedly, the little girl held her father's hand the whole way.
Finally, Lu Yue was also taken into Ding Huaixiao's office by Lu Yaobin and Feng Haidong.
After sitting down, Ding Huaixiao first greeted Lu Yue.
"Your name is Lu Yue, right? We met yesterday. Can you tell Grandpa how old you are?"
Lu Yaobin also said to his somewhat embarrassed daughter, "Yueyue, this is Grandpa Ding. Grandpa Ding used to be Grandpa's colleague, and he was also Dad and Aunt's boss. He's a very nice person."
Encouraged by her father, Lu Yue mustered up her courage and said, "Hello, Grandpa Ding, I am 4 years old this year."
Ding Huaixiao chuckled and said, "Alright, alright, it's a pity that Grandpa Ding doesn't have any candy for you here."
However, just as Ding Huaixiao was speaking, Mei Yaqin suddenly came into the office and handed a handful of candy to Lu Yue.
"Auntie was waiting for Yueyue over there, but Yueyue and her dad came to Grandpa Ding's place instead. Auntie brought this candy to you."
Lu Yue said, "Thank you, Auntie."
Seeing Mei Yaqin's enthusiasm, Ding Huaixiao laughed and said, "Yaqin, aren't you being a little too enthusiastic?"
Mei Yaqin said with a smile, "Ding Tou, you know, I only have a daughter, so I especially like little girls. These past two days, Yueyue and Wanling have been coming to work together, and Wanling and I have been taking care of her in the office."
Ding Huaixiao said, "Why don't you take Yueyue with you?"
Mei Yaqin also asked, "Yueyue, do you want to go with your aunt to see your great-aunt?"
However, Lu Yue was reluctant to leave her father's side.
Seeing this, Ding Huaixiao could only say, "Never mind, if the child doesn't want to go, let him stay here. Anyway, what we're talking about isn't anything confidential."
After Ding Huaixiao spoke, Mei Yaqin naturally left first.
After Mei Yaqin left, Feng Haidong got up to close the door, then gestured to his brother-in-law to bring out the advertising proposal.
Lu Yaobin immediately took out the plan and respectfully placed it in front of Ding Huaixiao.
Ding Huaixiao smiled at Fang An and said, "You guys are quite efficient."
Then, upon seeing the company name on the cover of the proposal, Ding Huaixiao smiled and said, "You, Haiyao Advertising, that's a good name."
Feng Haidong said with a smile, "When Yaobin went to the provincial capital to set up a company, he couldn't think of a good name for a while, so he simply put the middle characters of my name and his name together."
Lu Yaobin said, "Uncle Ding, don't you think Haiyao is great? I think I came up with a very good name."
Ding Huaixiao said, "It's really good. Haiyao is a great name. I hope you will truly shine like a pearl on the sea in the future."
Lu Yaobin immediately said, "Isn't this still something I need Uncle Ding to guide me on?"
Ding Huaixiao said, "Haha, I can't give you any pointers on that."
Lu Yaobin then said, "Uncle Ding, please take a look at our proposal and see if it's suitable. If there's anything unsuitable, we can take it back and make modifications."
Ding Huaixiao still didn't open the proposal, but smiled and said, "Haidong, Lao San, I shouldn't have looked at this proposal in advance. I should have looked at it with other people in the unit and with other companies' proposals. But since you came all the way here to deliver it, I'll take a look."
Lu Yaobin said, "Uncle Ding, we just hope you can help us take a look. After all, this is our first time doing this, and we don't know much about it. It's okay if you don't use our solution; we'll just consider it a learning experience."
Feng Haidong added, "That's right, today is my son's final exam. We brought the plan to show Uncle Ding, so it's like a mini-exam for us."
Ding Huaixiao looked at Feng Haidong and said, "Haha, Haidong's words are interesting. No wonder he is the author of that article 'Teacher's Ethics'."
It must be said that Feng Haidong's article "Teacher's Ethics" has indeed been widely circulated.
His local fame soared, especially after he was featured in Reader's Digest.
Ding Huaixiao, who was related to Feng Haidong's father-in-law, naturally had a very good impression of Feng Haidong after seeing this.
When Feng Haidong heard Ding Huaixiao mention that article, he smiled and said, "It's been so long, Uncle Ding, you still remember it?"
Ding Huaixiao said, "How could I forget? That article was really well written. I even heard that the education department had a special discussion about it."
Lu Yaobin couldn't help but say, "Brother-in-law, it's true. I heard it from the company accountant too."
When Ding Huaixiao heard Lu Yaobin mention the company accountant, he immediately smiled and said, "Third brother, I know about your company's accountant. Old Wang told me before that you brought her over from Old Wang. That girl is Zhou Shengde's daughter. You'd better be careful, kid."
Lu Yaobin asked in surprise, "Uncle Ding, do you know Zhou Xiaoxiao's father?"
Ding Huaixiao said, "You forgot? Wang Zhonghe and I are comrades-in-arms? Didn't you hear Old Wang tell you that he and Zhou Xiaoxiao's father are also comrades-in-arms?"
Lu Yaobin suddenly realized what was going on.
At this moment, Feng Haidong was already recalling his past life.
In his previous life, he vaguely remembered that Ding Huaixiao and Wang Zhonghe both said that they had specifically gone to Zhou Shengde to talk about Lu Yaobin and Zhou Xiaoxiao.
At the time, Ding Huaixiao and Wang Zhonghe both hoped that Zhou Shengde could persuade their daughter not to be with Lu Yaobin.
Moreover, when Wang Zhonghe went there, he spoke quite directly, stating that Zhou Xiaoxiao was a third party who had broken up someone else's family.
Of course, in the end, this matter could not be prevented.
Wang Zhonghe offended Zhou Xiaoxiao because of what he said back then, and afterwards Zhou Xiaoxiao almost never had any contact with Wang Zhonghe's family.
Even during holidays, when Lu Yaobin visited Wang Zhonghe, he always went alone.
Now that Feng Haidong heard Ding Huaixiao say this, he understood why Ding Huaixiao and Wang Zhonghe had gone to talk to Zhou Xiaoxiao's father together in their previous life.
When Feng Haidong recalled the incident, Ding Huaixiao warned him seriously: "Third brother, you should think more about your daughter."
Although Ding Huaixiao didn't say it aloud because there were children present, he had already made the matter clear in his words.
Lu Yaobin still smiled and said, "Uncle Ding, don't worry. Zhou Xiaoxiao works in our company. She's the accountant now. The company is indeed short-staffed right now."
Ding Huaixiao saw that Lu Yaobin was all smiles, but because there were children present, he couldn't say anything more.
Then Ding Huaixiao picked up the advertising campaign created by Feng Haidong and Lu Yaobin, put on his glasses, and began to read it carefully.
Feng Haidong and Lu Yaobin sat silently, waiting for Ding Huaixiao to give an answer.
Although Ding Huaixiao said that the bidding process would be discussed and approved by the unit, Feng Haidong and Lu Yaobin were well aware that whether it would succeed ultimately depended on Ding Huaixiao's decision.
