Chapter 696 Slow-burning



Su Xing and Lu Jun have been busy this summer since they started the sanitary napkin business.

After developing a small agency in the girls' dormitory, the two turned their attention to factories and family compounds with a large number of female employees.

Over the past month, their sales have covered almost the entire Kyoto city area, and their revenue has continued to rise.

Seeing the two of them busy all day, Tang Long asked about the situation and offered to help them.

Both of them are rich now, so how could they ask him for help for free?

Although everyone is about the same age, in terms of seniority, people still call them uncles!

So we paid him 2 yuan a day, plus sales commission.

Seeing that his two uncles were generous and worked very hard, Tang Long earned 5 yuan in one day yesterday!

This opened the door to a new world for him! It turned out that making money could be so easy!

Thinking about how he worked so hard back home to earn full work points, he could only earn 60 or 70 cents at most!

Now I work harder and harder! I am full of energy every day and run away early in the morning.

Zhang Shishi has been back in Beijing for half a year, but there has not been much breakthrough in her relationship with Su Xing.

We could still meet occasionally at school, but after the summer vacation I couldn't even catch a glimpse of him anymore!

Early this morning, she received a call from her mother in Country F.

On the phone, her mother conveyed the message that Frank Wayne asked her to bring to her and Lan Guoer.

It is said that old Frank's strange illness miraculously improved after taking the medicine and medicinal wine prescribed by Lan Guoer, and now he can stand up and walk a few steps.

The brother and sister have made great contributions and are now highly valued by old Frank, especially Frank Wayne. Old Frank has already intended to designate him as the family heir.

Wayne was very grateful to Lan Guoer for helping him and his sister, and said that he had prepared the reward and thank-you gift, and would present them personally on a chosen day.

With this news and resentment towards Su Xing, Zhang Shishi rode her bicycle to Jinyuan.

After hearing her story about Frank and his sister, Lan Guoer wasn't too surprised.

Instead, he teased Zhang Shishi.

"Sister Shishi, you rushed here so early in the morning just to tell me something? Is there nothing else?"

Zhang Shishi has been living abroad for many years and although her thoughts are relatively open, she still blushed when she heard this question since it touched upon the little thoughts of a girl.

"Where is your third brother? Hasn't he always lived with you?"

Now that things had come to this, she simply stopped beating around the bush and looked out the door before asking directly.

"Oh! So you are here to see my third brother!" Lan Guoer's eyes were full of teasing and her expression was quirky.

"Then Sister Shishi is still a step late! He's been very busy lately and left home early this morning! I wonder what Sister Shishi wants to talk to him about? I can help you convey it!"

Zhang Shishi's expression darkened, and she lowered her eyes, her expression unable to hide her disappointment.

"It's nothing, actually. I just haven't seen you for a long time, so I just asked."

Seeing her depressed, Lan Guoer put away the joking expression on her face and handed her a piece of watermelon.

"Try this! I grow this in my backyard. It's very sweet!"

Seeing her take it, she continued,

"Actually, my third brother is a bit slow-witted! Don't be fooled by his usual mature and steady appearance, or his shrewd business acumen. But when it comes to relationships, he's like a blank slate, completely clueless!"

Thinking of Chu Ying's experience at that time, Lan Guoer sighed.

"In the past two years, there have been girls who like him, but he probably only came to his senses after the girls got married!

My grandmother and I concluded that my third brother is a slow-moving type, especially when it comes to relationships.

It won't work if you just go along with him or cling to him. You also have to stimulate him from time to time!

Otherwise, even if he spends ten or half years, he may not be able to figure out your position in his heart!"

After what happened with Chu Ying, Lan Guoer didn't want Su Xing to have any regrets.

Moreover, considering Zhang Shishi's family background, character, knowledge, talent and appearance, and especially her feelings for Su Xing, Lan Guoer felt that she still met the standards of her ideal third sister-in-law.

So I deliberately made a few suggestions.

Zhang Shishi blinked, her clear eyes flashing, as if she was thinking about something.

She and Su Xing had known each other since childhood and lived in the same compound.

She had always stuck to him since she was little, following him around like a tomboy. When he played dirt fights with his friends, she would get covered in dirt.

When they played marbles, she would stand by and help him pick up the ones that had gone far away.

Whenever there is something delicious or fun, he is always the first person I think of.

But even so, he seemed to treat her no differently than his other friends! This was also the reason why she went abroad with her parents in a fit of anger.

Of course, they were not very old at the time! They were only fourteen or fifteen years old, the age of youth and ignorance, and it was not at the stage of talking about marriage at all.

During these years abroad, she has thought about and reflected on a lot!

Maybe girls mature earlier in terms of feelings, and Su Xing didn't realize that she felt differently towards him at that time?

Or maybe she was clinging to him too tightly, making him feel constrained and bored?

In short, she doesn't believe that she is not attractive enough and is not liked by others.

So when she came back again, she tried her best to control her emotions and tried not to get entangled, but it seemed that the effect was minimal.

Thinking carefully about what Lan Guoer had just said, she seemed to understand a little bit...

"Thank you, Guo'er! Sister, I know what to do!"

Zhang Shishi changed her dejected expression and her eyes lit up.

"Because of what you just said, I've decided to treat you to a meal at noon! My cousin just happened to take me to a small restaurant a few days ago! I have to say, the food was really good! Come on, let's go for a walk first and then go straight over when it's time for dinner!"

Lan Guoer happened to have no plans today, so she thought it would be nice to go out for a walk. She had been thinking about buying a few shops recently so that she could open a store in the future.

So the two of them went out together.
