Zhou Dabing didn't hide this idea from Lu Zhiye: "I originally just wanted to find any job and avoid the limelight!"
I don't want to be controlled by anyone anymore!
Ke Yiguo said, "You also have many veterans under your command who are now free and living very well!"
That's when I got the idea!
Mr. Lu, I assure you that my personal matters will absolutely not involve the store!
I will follow you wholeheartedly, if...
Zhou Dabing paused mid-sentence, then, seeing Lu Zhiye's indifferent expression, he closed his eyes and said with a look of grim determination, "If Mr. Lu is worried that I might cause you any trouble, I'll resign right now. Consider these next few days my way of helping you out!"
Zhou Dabing was an honest man, but Lu Zhiye was thinking about something else.
My village was flooded and everyone in the village was wiped out. Why does this story sound so familiar?
He asked in a deep voice, "Are you from your province?"
A look of pain flashed in Zhou Dabing's eyes: "Yes, I went home a few years ago and saw that our entire village was buried by a mudslide!"
The flood washed everything away. My parents were lucky; at least they were left with only their bones.
Some people, you can't even find their bodies!
Zhou Dabing's voice choked with emotion as he said this.
In the end, for some reason, the tough man suddenly burst into tears!
He joined the army at the age of 16, and the villagers were all uncles and aunts who had watched him grow up!
And childhood friends, who were once close friends, are now gone forever in just a few short years!
No normal person with flesh and blood could accept this!
Lu Zhiye sighed: "The person is gone, those who are alive must look forward!"
Your parents definitely want you to have a better life!
As for your decision to stay or leave, I need to discuss it with Comrade Meng Yiguo.
If it were someone else by my side, I definitely wouldn't be afraid!
However, I live in Shenzhen for a long time, and my family is the one who contacts you in Beijing.
There are two women involved; I have to consider their safety!
I don't want any uncertainties to happen to them!
Lu Zhiye's meaning was clear: he needed a promise from Meng Yiguo.
Although the Meng family's power has declined significantly, they still retain a certain degree of influence!
If Meng Yiguo intervenes, that person should really think twice about what he's planning to do!
Zhou Dabing didn't react for a moment, his eyes dimmed as he lowered his head: "Okay, President Lu!"
"Well, shall I go down and see if anyone needs help?"
Over the next few days, although Zhou Dabing was not very enthusiastic, he remained vigilant and worked very hard!
The day before the opening, Yang Li had a day off. She thought that she didn't have any relatives in Beijing, and Wen Sihe had given her so much help. Now that she needed help, she would definitely come over.
With nothing else to do, Wang Meilin and Yang Li went to the clothing store hand in hand.
Wen Sihe smiled and said to the two of them, "Being early is not as good as being at the right time!"
Our clothes are almost all displayed. Come and take a look, see if there's anything suitable for you?
Wang Meilin stepped into the room with a generous smile and said, "Since Mr. Wen says so, then I won't stand on ceremony!"
"Xiaoli, hurry up and choose! It doesn't happen often that the boss has to bleed money!"
Yang Li hesitated for a long time, but in the end, Wang Meilin took out a set of business attire and gestured in front of her: "Sister Wen, which factory made this business attire?"
They were quite stylish; the work attire of the supply and marketing cooperative was mostly Zhongshan suits!
So repetitive and outdated!
This business attire leans towards a masculine suit, yet it also possesses a feminine gentleness!
I think it suits Yang Li perfectly.
The fabric is crisp and well-tailored, with exquisite finishing and not a single loose thread; it must be expensive.
Yang Li quickly waved her hands and said, "I usually just do accounting, how could I wear this outfit?"
"I saw a sweater over there, it's really nice."
Wen Sihe clicked her tongue twice. As expected of someone from a large family, their vision and knowledge are indeed different!
This professional-looking suit was drawn from her memory!
It can be worn in spring and autumn, and it's perfect even when paired with a flowing inner lining!
Wen Sihe raised her chin: "Xiao Qin, wrap this set up and put it on my tab!"
Qin Zhao readily agreed, "Okay, boss!"
She turned to Yang Li and said, "Sister, come over here. Let me show you this outfit. If the pants are too long, I'll cut them for you!"
If you feel your waist is a bit wide, I can help you to slim it down a bit. This is the smallest size; you're a little thin.
Nowadays, most people wear one-size-fits-all clothes!
It's not as clearly divided as in later generations, such as xs, s, m, l, etc.
After all, there aren't many fat people nowadays; most people are quite slim!
Unlike later generations when nutrition was plentiful and children's height increased rapidly!
Most people were of average height, and Lu Zhiye only took a few plus-size sets.
These are all one size fits, and they're even too big for some people!
Yang Li was so nervous that she didn't know where to put her hands. Zhou Dabing carried the last box of things into the house and suddenly saw a somewhat familiar profile!
He thought he had misread it and quickly rubbed his eyes.
When I opened my eyes again, the person was gone.
Zhou Dabing looked dejected and laughed at himself for having hallucinations!
Wen Sihe pointed to a military water bottle on the table: "Soldier, this water bottle was specially provided for you by your brother Lu!"
Tell them this is your special water bottle, and I specially made honey water in it!
How does it taste?!
Zhou Dabing's eyes lit up. They'd given him a military-style water bottle?!
Does that mean I'll stay?
He opened his mouth as if to ask something, but Wen Sihe quickly interrupted him, saying, "I know nothing about what's going on between you and your brother Lu!"
"If there's anything, you can ask him later!"
Meanwhile, Lu Zhiye has also thoroughly investigated the cosmetics factory matter in the past few days.
Looking at the list in his hand, Lu Zhiye exhaled a smoke ring.
He looked quite annoyed; these people were really meddling in other people's business!
Why can't we just stay in our own state-owned factory?
Why do you have to trip up others?
It seems I need to go out for a while!
Lu Zhiye handed the letter over there, and Zhao Yisheng replied.
As before, the group met at Zhao Yisheng's residence.
Seeing Old Zheng's radiant face, Lu Zhiye's eyes also lit up with a smile: "Old Zheng, it's been a long time, you're in as good shape as ever!"
Old Zheng laughed heartily, stood up, personally took Lu Zhiye's hand, and led him inside!
The person standing behind Old Zheng stared wide-eyed!
When guests come, Old Zheng always sits in the head seat, unmoved as a mountain.
It seems the rumors were true; this man surnamed Lu might really be Old Zheng's illegitimate son!
