Wang Peng and Hu Qing left Huihuang Supermarket and returned to the Yihaodian office.
"Honey, you're back!" Li Mingzhu grinned and hugged Wang Peng's hand.
"Have you missed me?" Wang Peng reached out and touched her face, then gently stroked her belly. "Has our son missed me?"
“I miss you, I miss you every day. Hehe, if our son misses you, you can ask him yourself.” Li Mingzhu slowly sat down on the sofa.
Wang Peng squatted down, pressed his ear against her lower abdomen, and listened carefully to his son's movements. After a moment, he was kicked twice by his son.
"Haha," Li Mingzhu said with a laugh, "Your son kicked you to say hello."
“This kid is a bit mischievous,” Wang Peng said, sitting down next to his wife. “Let me tell you about the funny things that have happened these past two days.”
He recounted his journey to Ping'an County, how he entered the garment factory to find Chen Mengchang, how he tampered with the drinks to scheme against Chen Mengchang, and continued until Liu Yunlai was arrested.
Li Mingzhu smiled broadly and added, "We're not selling clothes for now; there's simply no space in the store."
Wang Peng nodded. Brothers Supermarket was doing very well, but its foundation wasn't very solid, so it couldn't open any more branches.
"Honey, if the Brilliant flagship store closes down, shall we take it over?"
"Oh?" Li Mingzhu immediately became excited and asked eagerly, "Honey, do you have a way to deal with Wang Cheng?"
Wang Peng nodded and, following the pattern of later generations, explained the tricks of the membership card scheme.
Li Mingzhu fell into deep thought. After a long while, she gave a thumbs up and said, "I think it's feasible. Wang Cheng is going to be in trouble."
Three days later, Chen Mengchang's case was completely transferred from the Garden Road Police Station to the College District Public Security Bureau, and Hu Juan was relieved from her busy work.
"Mom, we agreed that you would meet with Wang Song after dealing with Chen Mengchang." Hu Mingyue hugged her and said coquettishly, "You keep your word."
"Let's meet, it won't hurt us." Hu Juan sighed softly as she thought of Wang Song's old face.
"Mom's the best! I'll call my brother right away!" Hu Mingyue ran to the phone, then suddenly turned around, "Mom, where are you two going on your date?"
Hu Juan was taken aback, thought for a moment, and said, "Let's go shopping at Brothers Supermarket."
"Huh? What kind of date is this?" Hu Mingyue laughed. "You can go for coffee or watch a movie."
"I'm not going anywhere, just to go to Brothers Supermarket." Hu Juan said as she went to the bathroom in her pajamas.
Hu Mingyue stuck out her tongue. Although her mother doted on her, she was also a woman of her word, so in this situation, she had no choice but to comply.
She immediately called Wang Peng, who was also at a loss for words, "Mingyue, have you been busy lately?"
"I'm not busy, brother. Are you planning to give me a reward?" Hu Mingyue said with a smile.
"Smart. Tell me, what reward do you want?" Wang Peng was in a great mood. This girl had indeed made a great contribution to bringing Wang Song and Hu Qing together.
"Brother, would it be too much of a stretch if I said I wanted to work for my brother?" Hu Mingyue asked in a low voice.
“It’s not excessive. Come to Yihaodian tomorrow and find your sister-in-law. I’ll have her arrange things for you.” With the phone on speakerphone, Wang Peng looked at Li Mingzhu.
"Long live, thank you brother, mwah..." Hu Mingyue kissed the phone and immediately hung up.
Wang Peng was instantly dumbfounded. The phone was on speakerphone, and his wife and father were both there.
"Naughty, haha..." Li Mingzhu laughed uncontrollably, tears welling up in her eyes.
“Slow down your laughter,” Wang Peng quickly said, trying to comfort her. “She’s just too excited. There’s absolutely nothing between us.”
Wang Peng had too many unwanted romantic advances entangled with him, and he had to distance himself from them.
Upon hearing this, Li Mingzhu laughed even louder, while Wang Song scratched his head and sat to the side, grinning foolishly.
When the laughter stopped, she said, "I know you and her aren't having any romantic relationship. This girl is too playful; she made me laugh."
As she spoke, she looked at Wang Song and said, "Dad, take good care of your personal hygiene and try to make a good impression on people tomorrow."
"Hey." Wang Song scratched his head and said softly, "Why do I feel like she's playing me? How could she possibly be interested in me?"
Old Wang is a 50-year-old farmer who earns several thousand yuan a month by investing in his son's supermarket.
But Hu Juan is a college graduate who works in the public security system. She is the head of a police station and is only in her forties. She is also quite good-looking.
Wang Song thought about it more and more and felt it was impossible. He shook his head and said, "I think we should just forget about it. There's no way things can work out between us."
Wang Peng smiled and said, "Dad, don't underestimate yourself, and don't overestimate others."
"Dad," Li Mingzhu said, "whether it works out or not, let's just consider it making friends."
Hearing this, Wang Song finally gained confidence. "I'll go back and take a good shower, and go shopping with her at the supermarket tomorrow."
Hu Juan came out of the Hu family home wearing a bathrobe and saw her daughter sitting on the sofa, grinning foolishly.
"What are you grinning about? Are you in a relationship?" she asked, puzzled.
“My brother arranged a job for me. I’ll be working at Brothers Supermarket tomorrow. Hahaha…” Hu Mingyue stopped pretending and jumped on the sofa with the remote control in hand.
Hu Juan was stunned for a moment, then gave a bitter smile. "Are you selling your mother for a job?"
"What do you mean?" Hu Mingyue said urgently, "I dare say that even if you stand Wang Song up tomorrow, even if you two don't end up together, Wang Peng won't fire me because of this."
Hu Juan nodded, agreeing with her daughter's words.
Hu Mingyue said excitedly, "Mom, Linlin earned three thousand yuan in salary last month. Don't you think that's a lot?"
Linlin is the daughter's best friend. Before the old brother's supermarket burned down, she was one of his employees.
"Mom, when my brother was burned down, Wang Peng went bankrupt and gave each employee a severance package. Linlin felt embarrassed and refused to accept it."
"Now that Brother Supermarket has reopened, HR has proactively invited her to work. Last month, her base salary was 500 yuan, and she received 2,500 yuan in bonuses."
As Hu Mingyue spoke, she put her arm around her mother's shoulder, "I'll take care of you when I earn three thousand a month."
Hu Juan was still reeling from the shock of receiving only 3,000 yuan in wages. Her monthly salary was only a little over 600 yuan, and she didn't have enough time to keep up with her work every day.
“Okay, let’s go to the company together tomorrow. I’ll accompany you to your new job.” Hu Juan nodded.
The next morning, the mother and daughter arrived at Brothers Supermarket.
Wang Song was already waiting at the door, and said with a smile, "Comrade Hu, Mingyue, hello."
He was wearing a suit and tie, had curry hair, and new leather shoes. He had a servile and obsequious manner, still looking like an old farmer.
"Hello, Uncle." Hu Mingyue chuckled, finding Wang Song's appearance quite comical.
Hu Juan smiled slightly, "Old Wang, don't be nervous, it's not like we're meeting for the first time."
Upon hearing this, Wang Song felt even more embarrassed. The last time they met was because he had been taken to the police station after fighting with Li Guifen.
The three of them went to complete their onboarding process. The supermarket was bustling with people, and Hu Juan was quite shocked. "This business is too good!"
Hu Mingyue interrupted, "Uncle, how much dividend did you receive last month?"
"Nine thousand eight!" Wang Song immediately puffed out his chest, as he owned five percent of the shares in Brothers Supermarket.
"Amazing!" Hu Juan gave him a thumbs up. Becoming a millionaire in a month is indeed impressive.
The three arrived at the personnel department on the fourth floor and met Wang Peng and his wife, as well as Du Lei. They quickly greeted them.
Hu Juan said, "Xiao Peng, you don't need to let Mingyue join the company just because of me."
