Chapter 283 Work is the most important
"My dealings with her are just work, nothing else." Lu Jingyou knew his mother very well, and she wouldn't have asked this if she hadn't heard any rumors.
She is only a freshman now, and he can't take her to meet his parents yet.
He knew that Lin Manli would not agree.
If Lin Manli disagrees with something, she will do everything she can to obstruct it. She doesn't want Su Jiaojiao to be in such a questionable situation.
What's more, she and he still have misunderstandings that need to be communicated and resolved.
"Work-related?" Lin Manli asked suspiciously, "How could a student like her have any work-related dealings with you?"
Did she see it wrong that night?
No, her son had never been so happy chatting with any girl...
"When I was in Qingyuan, Yu Minghuai's sister Yu Mingyuan asked me to order a batch of fabrics for her at the Qingyuan Fashion Expo. However, I didn't know much about fabrics. I happened to meet Qin Shuang and Su Jiaojiao at the time, so I asked Su Jiaojiao to help me look at the fabrics."
Lu Jingyou said seriously, "After all, Qin Shuang and Su Jiaojiao helped me. Now that Su Jiaojiao is in the capital, I have to return the favor and treat them to a meal, right?"
"If it's just a simple meal, it's fine." Lin Manli thought it made sense. "But I heard that Su Jiaojiao and Qin Xiuming were in a relationship. When I saw you dating her, I wanted to remind you not to get involved in their family affairs. Don't mention the name Qin Shuang in front of your grandparents in the future."
This woman has turned the Lu family upside down.
Lu Jiaping and Wu Xinyue have separated and fallen out. If it weren't for Mr. and Mrs. Lu mediating, they would have divorced long ago.
If you ask her, Wu Xinyue just doesn't understand. Qin Xiuming doesn't need her to support him anyway, so why is he so serious?
Now, Lu Jiaping packed up and went to Guangzhou to accompany his son, leaving the mother and daughter in the capital. They couldn't get a divorce and didn't have a man, so why bother?
"Mom, you misunderstood. She and Qin Xiuming have never been in a relationship. If you don't believe me, go ask Qin Xiuming." Lu Jingyou didn't want Su Jiaojiao to leave this impression on his mother, so he said lightly, "That girl is only focused on making money, how can she care about dating?"
"But cousin, I heard from Su Jiaojiao's fellow villagers that her parents are divorced and she lives with her mother. Moreover, she has been working part-time to earn tuition." Seeing that Lu Jingyou didn't seem to understand Su Jiaojiao, Bai Moli hurriedly said, "Girls like this are very cunning. You have to be careful."
"I'm a grown man, and I have to be wary of a girl?" Lu Jingyou looked at Bai Moli coldly, and said word by word, "Or do you think I'm a fool?"
"No, that's not what I meant." Bai Moli waved her hands. She felt very aggrieved by Lu Jingyou's misunderstanding. She tugged at Lin Manli's sleeve and said, "Auntie, look at my cousin..."
"Alright, alright, let's not talk about this anymore." Seeing that Lu Jingyou didn't admit it, Lin Manli didn't want to ask any more questions. "It's getting late, let's all go back to the house and get some rest!"
At night, Lu Jingyou was lying on the bed, looking at the bite marks on his wrist, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up. She looked very quiet, but who knew that she would bite people when she was anxious, like a little wild cat.
But he just likes little wild cats like this. If she provokes him and wants to escape, forget it!
Su Jiaojiao couldn't fall asleep either.
Lying in bed, tossing and turning, she was thinking about how her relationship with Lu Jingyou had developed step by step to where it was today.
Why is she always entangled with the Lu family?
When she thought that he had kissed her when she was angry, her face turned red belatedly and she simply pulled the quilt over her head. She never wanted to see this man again.
It was not until the second half of the night that Su Jiaojiao fell into a deep sleep.
It was already past seven when she woke up. She had classes this morning and couldn't go to Cai Ting's place to help. She didn't know how busy she was.
After class ended at around ten o'clock, she called Cai Ting on her pager. Cai Ting quickly replied, her tone relaxed: "Jingjiao, you don't have to rush to find someone. I can handle it on my own. The customers who came in this morning all had large orders and took them directly by the bag. I didn't even count them. Guess how many I sold?"
"How much?" Su Jiaojiao asked her.
"Eight packages, eight hundred pieces!" Cai Ting said proudly. "They didn't even unpack them. They just loaded them onto the truck and took them away. Just come over when you're free and deposit the payment. I was worried about carrying them around.
"Okay, I'll go there in the afternoon." Tomorrow is the weekend, and she can stay at Cai Ting's place for two nights. Work is the most important thing.
Su Jiaojiao went to Wanshun Da Driving School as soon as she left school and waited for half an hour before taking the first part of the test.
The second test will be in half a month, so she has to get her driver's license as soon as possible and buy a cheap car to drive first.
It was almost two o'clock when she got off the bus. She went to Chengguang Garden to buy some food and took it to the power plant's staff quarters.
It was no longer busy at this time. Cai Ting sat at the warehouse door, chatting leisurely with Li Xia. As Su Jiaojiao entered the community, she heard Li Xia's loud voice: "Your business is so good, it makes me want to wholesale jeans too."
"It's okay today, but who knows what it will be like in the future," Cai Ting said modestly, "Your children's clothing business is also doing well."
Li Xia saw Su Jiaojiao coming and said with a smile, "Xiao Su, you've found a good helper. Xiao Cai is very capable."
"That's right, my sister is not only capable, but also smart." Su Jiaojiao also followed suit, praising her so much that Cai Ting felt embarrassed, "Hey, what are you doing?"
"What else can I do? I want to introduce you to someone." Li Xia simply pulled a stool over and sat down, cracking melon seeds as she spoke, spitting out the shells all over the floor. "I have a nephew, 23 years old, who just came from my hometown last month. He works for a real estate company and earns 800 yuan a month. You should consider him."
Cai Ting smiled sheepishly: "Thank you, Sister Li, I got engaged in my hometown."
This reason is the best.
You can reject the other party without embarrassing them.
"Really? Forget it then." Li Xia felt sorry and looked at Su Jiaojiao again, but didn't say anything. She was a student from Peking University and looked down on ordinary workers.
After dinner, Su Jiaojiao went to the bank to deposit the money for the goods, and asked Cai Ting to stay and continue selling the goods. She went to the nearby Qili Clothing Wholesale City alone.
In her previous life, Su Jiaojiao had been to Qili Wholesale City many times, but that was ten years later.
During the past ten years, Qili has expanded twice and gradually developed into a wholesale city specializing in women's clothing.
At that time, Qili was still wholesale men's, women's and children's clothing together, and its fame was far less than that of the Wudaokou Clothing Wholesale Market.
But Su Jiaojiao knew that there were many factory direct sales stores here, and she also knew several merchants here. She might be lucky enough to meet someone she knew.
Times have changed. Although her acquaintances may not necessarily recognize her, it is enough for her to know them and understand them.
When she first arrived in the capital, she didn't consider this place because the Wudaokou Wholesale Market was closer to Peking University, while the Qili Wholesale City was too far away. Even if she took a bus from the Electronic Family Compound, it would take more than an hour to get there.
Su Jiaojiao mainly wanted to come and look at the cotton-padded jackets, and then sell the cotton-padded jackets after the jeans were sold out. The place she rented with great difficulty had to be known for its good quality and low prices.
There were quite a few people in Qili Wholesale City. Su Jiaojiao walked back and forth twice and finally stopped in front of a stall selling wholesale cotton clothes.
When Su Jiaojiao saw the smiling face of the shop owner, she felt excited. She really met an acquaintance.
