Chapter 436 Heart-to-heart talk
"Sister Cai, are we going back to Wudaokou for lunch today?" Wang Xiaoyu asked as she wiped the window. "I want to eat the cold noodles from the place across from our mall. Ask for more sesame sauce. It's amazing."
"No need, we're having a big meal at noon today." Cai Ting looked out the window and said with a smile, "Both bosses are here, so why do you still need to eat cold noodles?"
The two men were walking back and forth in the factory yard, chatting, and had already walked around several times.
It’s already this late, it’s time for lunch.
"This is the first time I've met our boss's boyfriend. He's so handsome, isn't he?" Wang Xiaoyu was too embarrassed to leave.
She knew that Su Jiaojiao had a boyfriend, but she had never met him.
"A good woman and a good man are a perfect match." Cai Ting giggled. "You're in for a treat! I've been dreaming of this feast for a long time. Let's clean up quickly and then we can enjoy the feast."
Wang Xiaoyu smiled with her lips pursed.
At noon, Cai Ting finally had the feast she had been longing for. Lu Jingyou invited them to a seafood restaurant to eat seafood.
The meal was a great pleasure for both the host and the guests.
It’s good to have money.
Kaidu’s equipment will not be delivered until tomorrow, so there is nothing to do here for the time being. After dinner, Cai Ting and two hourly workers returned to Wudaokou to work.
Lu Jingyou took Su Jiaojiao to Kaiyuan Mansion.
Kaiyuanfu is not far from the state-owned cotton mill, only about ten minutes away.
In her previous life, Su Jiaojiao had been to Kaiyuan Mansion, but that time she came to find Qin Xiuming, not Lu Jingyou.
Lu Jingyou and Qin Xiuming's houses are in the same building, but not in the same unit. Lu Jingyou's is the east unit and Qin Xiuming's is the west unit, both on the sixth floor.
"Why did you bring me here?" It was Su Jiaojiao's first time to visit Lu Jingyou's house. The house had two bedrooms and a large living room. The whole house was decorated in black, white and gray, which was simple and elegant.
"I want to tell you two things. Do you want to hear the first or the second?" Lu Jingyou turned on the air conditioner as soon as he entered the room. He had been living here for the past two days. There was an unfinished bottle of mineral water on the coffee table.
"Just say whatever you want." Su Jiaojiao stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window in the living room and looked out. From here, she could see the Sunshine Classic Community across the street, and even the house she lived in in her previous life.
"Then let me talk about the second thing first." Lu Jingyou took the kettle and boiled water. "This place is close to the cotton mill. It would be best if you and your people moved in with me. I only stayed in this house once last night. It has been empty for the past two years."
"What about the first thing?" Su Jiaojiao felt very warmed after hearing the second thing. He was indeed helping her solve the accommodation problem.
There is too much staff turnover in garment factories.
If you want to retain people, you must provide welfare benefits that are higher than those of your peers. His house is nice, but not many people can live in it.
"The first thing is that I want to take you home to meet my parents and grandparents." Lu Jingyou looked at her seriously, "You know, I'm sincere to you, not at all perfunctory, so you should come home with me."
"I'm very touched by your second story, but I'm very embarrassed by your first story." Su Jiaojiao felt that she wasn't mentally prepared to meet his family. What if his mother gave her a cold face...
She didn't want to put herself in that situation.
"I'll talk to my mom, don't worry." Lu Jingyou poured her a cup of hot water and sat down beside her. "Give me a definite answer. I know what's going on. You can't keep putting it off."
Su Jiaojiao sat on the large black leather sofa in his house and didn't say anything for a long time. She really didn't want to go. What should she do?
"Is it so difficult to come to my house?" Seeing her lower her head and remain silent, Lu Jingyou embraced her with a mixture of anger and amusement, "With me here, what are you afraid of?"
"I don't want to talk to you anymore..." Su Jiaojiao was anxious and pushed him, but he pushed her down on the sofa. He lowered his head and looked at her with sharp eyes. "It's already this late. If you want to run away, forget it. Choose between October 1st and New Year's Day."
"New Year's Day..." The longer you can postpone it, the better.
"You said it, so let's make it a deal." Lu Jingyou was very satisfied with this answer. He reached out and helped her up from the sofa, saying with a smile, "My family isn't a dangerous place. Don't overthink it. They'll all treat you well."
Su Jiaojiao remained silent.
She originally thought that meeting his parents would happen after she graduated, but he mentioned it again and again... Is it not too late for her to regret it now?
"My mother's attitude doesn't mean anything. You don't have to worry about it. I will definitely communicate with her before you go." Lu Jingyou pulled her up and hugged her to the window. "Did you see anything?"
"My old house." Su Jiaojiao answered without hesitation.
"I thought you would buy it." Lu Jingyou hugged her from behind. Su Jiaojiao shook her head, "No, for me, that's a bad memory."
In her previous life, she experienced a cliff-like breakup in the Sunshine Classic House, and it took her half a year to get over it.
Then after Qin Xiuming broke up with Yu Tian, he continued to harass her endlessly, even standing downstairs of her building for a whole night, causing her to be gossiped about by the neighbors.
"Before, I stood here and looked at you quietly, but I couldn't get close to you." Lu Jingyou walked in front of her and looked at her quietly, "Don't you feel anything at all?"
He liked her in his previous life.
Watching her go out with Qin Xiuming as a pair, watching them break up, watching him chase her to get back together, and also watching her rise little by little, and then turn into a heartless person...
No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't get even a little bit closer to her.
"Back then, you were always against me, and I didn't have the slightest affection for you." Their eyes met, and Su Jiaojiao saw the tenderness in his eyes, and spoke her mind, "If you liked me, how could you have treated me like that? That's why I never thought you liked me..."
"I'm jealous of Qin Xiuming, and I'm jealous of everyone around you. I want to get your attention, but I don't want to push you further away." Lu Jingyou didn't want to talk about the past. He hugged her again, "So in this life, I took the initiative and brought Qin Xiuming back to the capital ahead of time. I don't want you to have any contact with him again."
"Thank you for all you have done for me." Su Jiaojiao knew his intention. In fact, she and Qin Xiuming had already become enemies in her previous life, and it would never be possible for them to be enemies in this life.
But she still thanked Lu Jingyou for his intentions. She didn't feel his love for her in her previous life, but she felt it truly in this life.
"I want to complete these procedures as quickly as possible and put the wedding on the agenda soon. I don't want to wait any longer." Lu Jingyou reached out and stroked her long hair, brushing the strands away from her face. He looked at her affectionately, "Will you come home with me?"
Su Jiaojiao was bewitched by the atmosphere he created. She heard herself say, "I do..."
