"Xia Baozhu, how did you get out yesterday?" Sun Xingyan asked, coming over to talk to Xia Baozhu after she finished her work.
"you guess?"
"It must be Chenshan Tower."
"right."
"So you'll be a member of Chenshan Tower from now on?" Sun Xingyan said, feeling a tightness in his chest.
Undeniably, he was very fond of Xia Baozhu from the first moment he met her, and he said he didn't covet married women, and he certainly did.
Xia Baozhu is now divorced, and before he could even form any concrete thoughts, that shameless Shen Shanlou jumped out to make his presence known.
"You're talking nonsense. Just because he helped me, does that mean he belongs to me? If many people help me, do I have to marry them all?"
Xia Baozhu rolled her eyes; she was already used to Sun Xingyan's foul mouth, which could never produce anything worthwhile.
“That’s true. He’s much older than you and not as good-looking as me. It’s normal that you don’t like him.” Sun Xingyan felt a huge weight lifted off his shoulders, and his tone became much lighter.
“He should have children by now at his age.” Xia Baozhu recalled a time when she met Chen Shanlou, and there was a little boy sitting in the back seat of his car.
"Yes, he should be married. So why does he keep coming up to you?" Sun Xingyan was going to ask someone what was going on with this Chenshan Tower.
"I don't know, I'm not a mind reader." Xia Baozhu didn't want to talk about Chenshanlou anymore.
Although Chen Shanlou helped her, she still didn't have a good impression of him. He was too cunning, and she didn't have any interest in being a mistress or lover.
Xia Baozhu took out a business card from the drawer and handed it to Sun Xingyan.
"Song Yaoyang, who is this? Is he pursuing you again? Xia Baozhu, you're still quite popular even after your divorce."
"Sun Xingyan, if you can't speak properly, then shut up." Xia Baozhu took the business card in an annoyed tone.
"Then who is he?"
After Xia Baozhu finished explaining Song Yaoyang's background, Sun Xingyan tapped the counter with his finger: "He wants to invest in your store. You disagreed before, but you've changed your mind now."
"Yes, I want to try it."
"Then let's give it a try. Anyway, he invests the money, you do the work, and if we lose money, it's his problem. What are you afraid of?"
"I hesitated because he had been chased before, and I felt there was some danger."
“The fact that he dares to show up openly means the problem is solved.” Sun Xingyan supported Xia Baozhu in expanding her shop.
"Would you like to invest some too?"
Xia Baozhu revealed her purpose, reviewing the novel's content. She noted that Sun Xingyan rarely failed in major investment projects, so she wanted to win him over to increase her chances of successful shop expansion.
"Me?" Sun Xingyan hadn't expected Xia Baozhu's ultimate target to be him. His eyes darted around the shop as he quickly calculated the profits in his mind.
“Okay, I can vote. Even if he doesn’t vote, I will.” Sun Xingyan readily agreed.
It would be a good thing to become partners with Xia Baozhu. She is capable, and he is rich. Together they would be a perfect match.
Xia Baozhu asked Sun Xingyan, who was bored, to go to the department store to buy a freezer.
"We haven't even signed a contract yet, and you're already treating me like an employee? Besides, I'm an investor, not a worker."
Despite saying that, Sun Xingyan still went out.
Xia Baozhu found a public phone and dialed Song Yaoyang's number.
Hello, who is this?
The voice on the other end of the phone relieved Xia Baozhu; it was Song Yaoyang, and he hadn't lied to her.
“It’s me, Xia Baozhu.”
"Oh, it's Ms. Xia. You've thought it through?" Song Yaoyang's voice became lazy, showing little surprise at Xia Baozhu's call.
Many people initially vowed not to accept investment, but later regretted it.
If you have backbone, you should persevere. Clearly, Ms. Xia Baozhu is also someone who can be flexible and adaptable.
"right."
"Okay, I'll have someone come find you." With that, Song Yaoyang hung up the phone.
Xia Baozhu's expression darkened as she listened to the voice on the other end of the phone; Song Yaoyang was incredibly rude.
Forget it, I won't hold it against him. When he first came here, she wasn't very nice to him either.
But with things starting like this, can their cooperation go smoothly? Xia Baozhu wondered uncertainly.
...
Leng Mingguang went out to buy lunch at the factory today. Yesterday, he heard from his colleagues that two stalls had opened outside and that the braised pork rice was particularly delicious. He wanted to try something different today.
Unexpectedly, he saw the thugs he had hired before standing in front of the stall, skillfully cutting meat and selling food.
They took the money and did nothing? They just swindled my thousand yuan like that?
Suppressing his anger at being cheated, Leng Mingguang went to the stall.
"Give me a bowl of braised pork rice."
"Okay, huh?" Qi Mufei looked at Leng Mingguang carefully, making Leng Mingguang feel uneasy.
Does he seem to recognize himself?
Leng Mingguang lowered his head. He wanted to ask what was going on, but seeing the cold look in the man's eyes, he didn't dare to speak.
The other side has more people. If he tries to get his money back, they will definitely disagree and might even beat him up.
"Do you know where the stuff we're selling comes from?" Qi Mufei whispered to Leng Mingguang.
"Where?" Leng Mingguang suddenly had a bad feeling.
"Thanks to you, we're from the fried chicken shop. We're all from the fried chicken shop now."
Qi Mufei's smile turned sinister. They already knew that Leng Mingguang worked here, and they came here specifically to wait for him.
Leng Mingguang's mind went blank. What did that mean? They were Xia Zhaodi's people? Did Xia Zhaodi know about his plan? How was she going to deal with him?
In a daze, Leng Mingguang paid the money, took the boxed lunch, and walked towards the factory. However, the fear on his face soon disappeared, and he quickened his pace, turning towards the gatehouse.
"Brother, I, Mingguang, want to work for you."
Leng Minghui received a call from his younger brother. He had previously considered that his nephew was still young and couldn't bear to let him grow up without his father by his side, so he hadn't asked Leng Mingguang to come along.
Now that his younger brother had asked, Leng Minghui naturally agreed. The little salary he earned at the factory wasn't even enough to buy Lin Shiwan a bracelet.
"By the way, Mingguang, why don't you ask Xiujuan if she's coming? The work at the textile factory is quite tiring, so why don't you come work for me? I'll arrange an easier job for her."
“If you’d like, Mom can come too.” Leng Minghui still has two houses he’s keeping for himself, and he’ll arrange for his younger brother to move in once he arrives.
Hearing Leng Minghui's words, Lin Shiwan, who was standing next to him, frowned unhappily.
She and Leng Minghui are incredibly happy every day now, but after only a few days, she'll be living with her mother-in-law and brother-in-law. Once they arrive, she won't be so content anymore.
But she couldn't stop Leng Minghui from fulfilling his filial duties; if she said it out loud, Leng Minghui's feelings for her would definitely diminish.
Therefore, the best solution is to live separately, far apart.
Lin Shiwan suddenly had a good idea, and a bright smile slowly appeared on her lips.
