"If you want more people to know about it, you should choose me. Don't worry, I won't ship it overseas this time. I will sell it all over the country."
"Ah, you're all over the country?"
Boss Liu nodded and said, "I have many distributors all over the country now, all of them are big customers. These fruits of yours are not enough to fill our stomachs. However, I will give some away this year so that they can see the finished product. Next year, I will focus on promoting these. You have to save your goods for me for next year."
Xu Shan smiled happily: "Of course, I will definitely keep it for Boss Liu."
"I've had my people take these goods away. Are you free this afternoon? Since we're in the city, let's have a meal together."
"ah...?"
Boss Liu saw Xu Shan's surprised expression and smiled, "I'm saying, as friends, I'll treat you to a meal."
"No, I have to go back. No one is home."
"Why do you work so hard every day? You should relax once in a while. Also, I really have a big project that I want to discuss with you."
When Xu Shan heard about the big project, she was slightly stunned. After thinking for a moment, she nodded.
I made an appointment with Boss Liu to meet at the market entrance at 6pm.
There was still so much time left, and Xu Shan was also bored, so she found a nice hotel and went straight to sleep.
She has been getting up early and going to bed late these days and has not slept well at all.
...
"Boss, everything is done. Why are we just going to retire like this?"
"There are so many brothers here. We all need to get married, have children, and live peacefully. I'm going to find a regular job for you. Are you not happy?"
"Of course not. We just didn't expect that the boss would suddenly change his career and take us brothers away from fighting and killing."
"I'm tired of that kind of life, and... never mind, as long as things are done, I'll have a good talk with my brothers during this time. I'm Bai Ruhai, and I don't like anyone disobeying me."
"Don't worry, Boss. They're so happy about your decision. They've been living in a life of violence for years, and they're tired of it. They're all happy to have a chance to live a good and honest life."
"Well, that's it for now. I have some personal matters to attend to these few days, so you don't need to follow me."
"Yes, Boss."
Xu Shan fell asleep, but she kept dreaming and felt like someone was talking in her ear.
I looked down at the watch on my hand and it was already past three o'clock.
I slept for quite a while and even missed lunch.
I packed up, took a shower, and went out.
Boss Liu was already waiting at the door in his car.
"Didn't you say six o'clock? There's still half an hour left."
"I'm treating you, how can I let the lady wait for me? Get in the car, I have already reserved a seat." Boss Liu opened the car door for Xu Shan in a gentlemanly manner.
Xu Shan was a little flattered. How could she, a country girl, have such a great reputation?
She got into the car feeling nervous, and what she didn't expect was that Boss Liu actually took her to a high-end five-star hotel.
When Boss Liu handed her the menu, he was dazzled.
The price of the dishes above is equivalent to that of a thousand kilograms of fruit she sells.
Xu Shan ate the meal very reservedly. When the food was served, Boss Liu didn't mention anything about the project.
Xu Shan asked, "Boss Liu, what kind of project is it that's taking you so long?"
Seeing that Xu Shan couldn't wait any longer, Boss Liu put down his chopsticks with a smile, took a sip of tea, and raised his eyebrows and said, "Of course it's a good project that will benefit you for life."
Xu Shan was slightly stunned and put down the chopsticks in her hand, waiting for him to continue.
"What do you decide about me?"
Xu Shan smiled. "Boss Liu is smart and active, and a good businessman. Xu Shan really admires him."
"Besides these, is there anything else that attracts you? Like looks? Personality?"
"Ah..." Boss Liu suddenly asked such a question. Xu Shan smiled awkwardly. "Boss Liu has handsome features. If he were in ancient times, he would be a typical handsome man."
Boss Liu picked up the water cup and took a sip, a smile on his face: "So, the project that Sister Xu and I talked about is me."
"You?" Xu Shan's mouth twitched slightly.
"I'm 34 years old, divorced, single, and childless. I don't have any violent tendencies. I can't say I'm particularly outstanding, but I do try to provide a good life for my wife and children.
To be honest, when I first met Miss Xu, I inexplicably had a liking for you. You may not even know it yourself, but you have an attractive temperament that makes people like you very much.
Ahem... Saying this suddenly may be a bit offensive, but I have carefully considered it before I have the courage to say these words to Miss Xu. What do you think of me?
"..." Xu Shan didn't know how to respond to Boss Liu's confession for a moment.
If she had known that today was a love confession party, she would have said she would never come back.
He lowered his head and thought for a long time before he spoke seriously: "I'm sorry, Boss Liu, I may disappoint you. There is already someone living in my heart, and there is really no room for another. I'm sorry."
Boss Liu hadn't expected Xu Shan to reject him so quickly. His sophisticated social experience told him not to lose his composure. He smiled with a hint of disappointment, "I really didn't expect you to reject me so quickly. I'm really curious what kind of man could make Miss Xu so worried."
"He's certainly not as good as Boss Liu, but in my heart I think he's the best."
"Sister Xu, there's no need to be so modest. I believe that anyone who catches your eye must be an outstanding person. You should be congratulating me. I'm a step late and don't have this blessing."
"Boss Liu, please stop saying that. A man as outstanding as you is sure to find a caring and virtuous wife. I think you still don't know me well enough. I'm not usually this good-tempered. I'm always quarrelsome and not presentable at all."
"Sister Xu, you're being too modest. Hey, I was planning on making a romantic confession, and I had even prepared a gift. Unfortunately, it's already been given away."
"It can be sent out. Boss Liu is not short of beautiful women around him."
Xu Shan spent the whole meal with Boss Liu, smiling, and the awkward dinner ended in just under an hour.
Boss Liu didn't show any sign of decadence or loss, and he walked her to the hotel entrance in a gentlemanly manner.
"Even though my confession failed and I'm a little jealous of the man who occupies your heart, let's be honest. I hope we can still have a good cooperative relationship in the future."
"Of course." Xu Shan politely extended her hand and shook hands with Boss Liu. She watched his car drive away before returning to the room.
Xu Shan, lying on the bed, took a deep breath. She knew that Boss Liu was interested in her before, but she didn't expect that he would suddenly confess to her today.
It's better to talk about it. Now that it's talked about, this matter will be over.
"Xiao Bai, Xiao Bai, I rejected a person who loved me just for you. Where are you?"
