The word "millionaire" made Huaihua feel a little elated.
Anyway, the money came from the store, so even if her sister realizes she stole it, she probably won't ask her for it back. She can squander it for a while longer.
With just over a thousand yuan, you could drink coffee here every day for a month!
"Oh, my sister is very good at making money, but she always told me to keep a low profile," she said casually.
Xu Ruping asked with amusement, "Who is your sister? There aren't many women in Beijing who are particularly good at making money!"
Huaihua hesitated for a moment. She thought that if she said her sister was Lin Chunhua, then she would just be a store manager who owned a clothing store. So she decided to just say that she was Lu Wanqing.
“My sister’s name is Lu Wanqing. She recently bought a garment factory for several million yuan!” Huaihua said proudly.
"As for me, I own a clothing store."
Under Xu Ruping's probing gaze, she added guiltily.
Although she didn't know why, seeing Xu Ruping's fair and poreless face gave her a sense of confidence.
Sure enough, after she finished speaking, Xu Ruping's eyes became much warmer, and she asked her a lot of questions about the garment factory.
As evening approached, the two drank two cups of coffee before leaving the coffee shop.
When she returned to the newly booked guesthouse, the police were already waiting for her there.
"Bring my sister here, I didn't steal the money!" At the police station, Huaihua insisted that the money wasn't stolen.
By the time Lin Chunhua arrived, she had already spent over a hundred yuan.
"Sister, you can't send me to jail! I'm your own sister."
However, after her repeated assurances, Lin Chunhua made up the money herself and told the police that the theft was just a misunderstanding.
After leaving the police station, Lin Chunhua gave her a lecture, telling her not to do such things again and to find a job and work properly.
Huaihua appeared to be cooperating, but inwardly she was contemptuous. Who would want to work honestly? Even if you work hard, you only earn a hundred yuan a month, which is enough to buy four cups of coffee.
She suddenly realized that the offer Xu Ruping made to her was very tempting.
You can earn 200 yuan a month just by doing design work, and you can get extra bonuses if you do something else that makes a difference.
Unexpectedly, Xu Ruping is just a designer, yet she earns so much money. What was the name of the garment factory she works for again? Dragon Pattern Garment Factory. She'll have to go and see it for herself sometime.
......
In a newly opened restaurant, Lu Wanqing was entertaining Huo Yingdong and his friends.
This friend is Mr. Fan, a fabric supplier in Dongguan. You can find the latest and trendiest fabrics in his factory.
As people's living standards continue to improve, the pent-up demand for clothing is also booming.
I'm not afraid of clothes being new and of good quality; I'm only afraid of not being able to buy them even if I have the money.
Seeing others returning from the south in trendy clothes, everyone wanted to get one for themselves.
The supplier clinked glasses with Lu Wanqing, his attitude somewhat arrogant:
"Mr. Lu, your order needs to be finalized as soon as possible. The dragon pattern has already been ordered for fifty tons, and they are already choosing the colors. If it's any later, the most popular colors will probably be taken."
Seeing that Lu Wanqing didn't speak, Huo Yingdong said with a smile:
"Boss Lu is an old friend of mine, so you must reserve some good stuff for her."
After saying that, he turned to look at Lu Wanqing and told her that the new designer for Longwen was named Xu Ruping, and that she came from Shanghai.
In reality, her boss invested a large sum of money in the factory, making Xu Ruping essentially a half-factory manager.
So that's how it is. No wonder they were able to quickly seize the market. Xu Ruping must have done a thorough understanding of the industry before coming to Beijing.
Lu Wanqing made a good impression on President Fan with her own abilities. As for the fabric, she naturally did not want to fall behind and placed an order as well.
However, it cost a lot more money.
It seems she'll need to find a few more suppliers.
After finishing her social engagements and returning home, Lin Chunhua tugged at Huaihua's clothes to apologize to her, having been waiting for her at the courtyard gate for a long time.
Lu Wanqing told them to go inside and talk, and Lin Chunhua then led Huaihua into the courtyard.
This was Huaihua's first time entering a courtyard house, and she was amazed by its antique charm and bright, spacious courtyard.
This is the life of the rich!
I didn't have much of a direct sense of Lu Wanqing's wealthy life before, but now I realize how poor I am.
She rubbed the corner of her clothes, feeling resentful. So what if he's so rich? He's still so stingy, unwilling to give her a high-paying and easy job.
Lin Chunhua worked herself to the bone to earn so much money for her, but in the end, most of it went into her pocket. It's really not worth it for her.
"Say something! Stealing money is such a big deal. If it were anyone else, they'd put you in jail." Lin Chunhua pushed her when she saw that she was being stubborn and still acting difficult.
Huaihua initially wanted to apologize and settle the matter peacefully, but after seeing Lu Wanqing's enviable life, she changed her mind.
"Sis, I've already paid you back, why are you making such a big deal out of it? It's just a few hundred yuan, you don't need it anyway, what's wrong with letting me spend it?"
Lu Wanqing was already tired from socializing, and hearing about her theft only worsened her mood. Seeing her stubbornness, she immediately put on a stern face.
“Huaihua, I’ve given you several chances, but you didn’t appreciate them and almost caused trouble for Chunhua. I have no choice but to handle this officially.”
Upon hearing this, Lin Chunhua realized something was wrong; this time, she was truly angry. She quickly pinched the locust flower and sternly demanded an apology.
"I won't apologize! Why should I? Do you think she's the Queen Mother of the West, and everyone has to listen to her?"
The locust flowers resisted.
During the struggle, she pushed Lin Chunhua to the ground and ran out into the yard.
"Hmph, if this place doesn't want me, there are plenty of other places that will. You just wait and see." She said this harshly as she left.
Lu Wanqing didn't intend to let her off the hook either. She directly told Lin Chunhua to report the incident to the police and teach her a lesson so she would know her place.
Lin Chunhua was so disappointed in him that she didn't even have time to eat before reporting him to the police.
The next day, Huaihua went directly to Xu Ruping and said she was willing to work for her.
Xu Ruping chuckled inwardly. This girl was even more vain than she had imagined. That evening, she invited President Fan to dinner and brought her along.
The time-honored restaurant had a whole table of traditional delicacies laid out, a feast for the eyes, nose, and palate.
Xu Ruping told her that President Fan was very rich, and these dishes cost more than a hundred yuan, including a steamed bear paw dish.
While she was enjoying her meal, she also listened to Mr. Fan boast for a long time. Knowing that he had millions in wealth, her eyes lit up, and she wished he would agree with whatever he said.
Sure enough, under Mr. Fan's inducement, she drank quite a lot of alcohol and became very tipsy.
After the meal, she was led out of the restaurant by President Fan.
Just as Mr. Fan was hailing a tuk-tuk to go to his lodgings, two policemen stopped them.
