The autumn wind blew up the fallen leaves, which drifted into the long alley. Two beautiful girls walked hand in hand on the green tiles.
There were a few old men playing chess sitting at the entrance of the alley. When they heard the footsteps, they just looked up curiously, then lowered their heads and continued to fight, unable to let their opponents gain the upper hand.
The house that Su Nan rented for Feng Meng was on the third floor, with two bedrooms and a living room. The price was not cheap, but the advantage was that the surrounding environment was good. It was close to Huaqing University and shops, making it convenient for commuting to get off work.
Because no one has moved in yet, the furnishings inside are simple, with just a few necessary pieces of furniture and the daily necessities that Su Nan bought last time, but that is enough.
"Come and sit down, eat the chestnuts and sweet potatoes, they are delicious." Su Nan patted the chair beside him and put all the food in his hands on the table.
"Sister Nannan, this place is really nice." Feng Meng was leaning against the window looking at the scenery outside. Upon hearing this, she hurried over and praised her with a smile.
Su Nan smiled and raised his eyebrows complacently: "It took me a long time to find this. I'm glad you like it."
"Thank you." Feng Meng sat next to Su Nan, picked up a chestnut, peeled it and put it into her mouth. The soft, glutinous and powdery texture made her eyes light up, and she ate several more in succession.
"By the way, how is Sister Xiaoyu doing at 'rich'? Is everything going well?" Su Nan asked vaguely with a chestnut in his mouth.
"It went quite smoothly. Sister Xiaoyu is a very nice person. She is diligent and conscientious at work. She also cooks for us every once in a while. The food is super delicious." Feng Meng gave a thumbs up and was full of praise whenever she mentioned Liu Yu.
"That's good. I was worried that she couldn't adapt to this working environment." Su Nan couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he heard Feng Meng say that.
After they finished eating chestnuts and sweet potatoes and packed up their lunch, they went out for a meal. They contacted Chang Yelin at the supply and marketing cooperative which had a phone number and finalized the time for inspecting the store and signing the contract. Then Su Nan went back to school first.
Because the distance was not far, Su Nan chose to walk back and unexpectedly ran into an acquaintance at the school gate.
"Assistant Yuan." Su Nan patted Assistant Yuan's shoulder from behind and greeted him. He seemed startled and had a look of shock for a moment. Seeing this, she couldn't help but laugh: "Am I some kind of evil ghost? Why do you look like that?"
"No, I just didn't react." Assistant Yuan glanced inside the school gate calmly, and when he saw that the figure was nowhere to be seen, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Su Nan didn't take his strange behavior seriously at first. Instead, he tilted his head and asked curiously, "What are you doing here?"
"I'm here to see a friend off." Assistant Yuan touched the back of his head and answered calmly.
"Oh, then I'll go in first. Bye." Su Nan didn't want to pry into other people's private lives, so she took the initiative to say that she was leaving. After Assistant Yuan responded, she went in.
Looking at Su Nan's leaving back, Assistant Yuan let out a breath and turned away.

As soon as she entered the dormitory, Su Nan saw Yang Shuzhen, dressed up beautifully, sitting in her seat, looking at a gift box and grinning foolishly. She didn't even know Su Nan was back.
"Hi, when did you come back?" Su Nan recognized the logo on the gift box as a big watch brand. Thinking of Yang Shuzhen's pink bubbles all over her body just now, she couldn't help but guess that this thing must have been given by her mysterious partner.
Hearing Su Nan's voice, Yang Shuzhen subconsciously stuffed the things in her hand back into the bag, curled her lips and replied: "I just came back not long ago."
"Oh, I just came back too." Su Nan naturally saw Yang Shuzhen's reaction just now and frowned slightly.
Yang Shuzhen took off the headband on her head and asked, "Nannan, did you pick up your friend?"
"Yes, we just came back after dinner." Seeing that Yang Shuzhen had no intention of talking about other topics, Su Nan returned to her seat and began to change clothes and remove makeup.
Just after changing into pajamas, I saw Yang Shuzhen coming over with a bag of oranges. She handed it to Su Nan and said with a sweet smile, "These oranges were sent by others. I ate one recently and it was very sweet. Would you like to try it?"
"Okay, thank you." Su Nan put down her hair-tying hands and took the bag of oranges from Yang Shuzhen.
Seeing that she was silent and seemed to be hesitant to speak, Su Nan took the initiative to ask her: "What's wrong? Is there anything you want to tell me?"
After two seconds of silence, Yang Shuzhen said a little embarrassedly: "I also want to put on makeup, Nan Nan, can you teach me? I want to look better."
Hearing this, Su Nan was stunned at first, then nodded with a smile: "Sure, I can teach you when I have time."
Loving beauty is every girl's right and destiny. Su Nan doesn't think there is anything wrong with it. Moreover, falling in love will definitely increase the pursuit of beauty to a certain extent.
"Thank you, Nan Nan. Can you teach me after you finish washing up?" Yang Shuzhen excitedly pulled Su Nan's hand and jumped twice on the spot, with a smile on the corner of her lips.
Seeing this, Su Nan, who was originally a little tired and wanted to go to bed early, pursed her lips and finally nodded.
For several days, whenever Su Nan was free, Yang Shuzhen would come over to learn light makeup, and she learned it quite well. She had basically no problem putting on light makeup for daily use, and her appearance and complexion improved a lot.
Yang Shuzhen also said that she felt embarrassed to buy Su Nan's cosmetics, so she asked Su Nan to buy her an identical set of cosmetics.
You know, this set of cosmetics is not cheap. Although Yang Shuzhen's family conditions are not bad, Su Nan still reminded her tactfully out of kindness, but she just waved her hand and said money is not a problem.
Seeing this, Su Nan didn't know what to say. It just so happened that the new store had to ship goods from Shanghai, so he said that he would send it to Yang Shuzhen next time. Because they were good friends, he gave her a 50% discount and gave her some extra things.
When it was time to inspect the store and sign the contract, Su Nan went to find Feng Meng early in the morning. Then the two of them went to the bank to withdraw money, and went to the store with one year's rent and deposit.
They were greeted by a middle-aged man carrying a briefcase. Without saying anything, he opened the door of the shop with his key.
It has two floors. The lower floor is the kitchen, where orders are taken and dining is served, while the upper floor is all for dining. Because the previous owner moved away, the entire store is now empty, making the space seem huge.
Su Nan checked the whole place from top to bottom. Except for the kitchen which was extremely dirty with a lot of grease, everything else was fine. The shop was also a newly built building only a few years ago, so everything met the minimum requirements she had set in her mind.
Moreover, the surrounding shops are also in good condition, with many restaurants and a large flow of people. There are also many clothing stores and supply and marketing cooperatives. Although there is a certain amount of competition, Su Nan is very confident that he can make "rich" the best.
"You are Mr. Chang's friend, and this price is a friendly price. If you think it's okay and you can sign the contract, let's sign the contract first. This way you can open the store as soon as possible." The middle-aged man patiently took them around the upper and lower floors, then spoke with a smile.
Su Nan and Feng Meng looked at each other and nodded.
"It's a pleasure to work with you." Just like that, the contract was signed and the key was in Su Nan's hands.
After the store issue was resolved, Su Nan contacted the staff of the street office, registered the relevant information, and went to the Industrial and Commercial Bureau to apply for a business license. At the same time, she also found a relatively well-known decoration team nearby and designed the general outline of the store according to her own ideas.
While the hard decoration was being completed, Su Nan and Feng Meng had already started to sweep the soft decoration market in Beijing. In order to achieve the best decoration effect, she compressed all her social time and did everything herself.
As a result, I can't take care of other things.
Fortunately, Zhou Rang was also very busy. The bidding had recently come to a critical time. Within three days, the final result would come out. No one could be sure who would get the land until the last moment.
However, Zhou Rang and Su Nan were not nervous. They had been busy for so long and made so much effort, so they were still very confident that they could win in one fell swoop. Moreover, the information Chang Yelin provided last time had increased their self-confidence.
The end of autumn is coming to an end, and some things should come to an end...
