Chapter 67 The older man is her career mentor
Song Chi's heart was pounding. She wasn't sure if she had fallen for the older man, and she was thinking about it very seriously.
Mu Yin gazed at her with burning eyes, a suppressed anticipation in his gaze.
Both of them were in a state of confusion.
Just as the atmosphere became ambiguous, a voice rang out.
"You two young people, what are you doing standing here with a block of wood? Please move aside!"
An elderly woman was trying to cross the road, and they were blocking her way.
Song Chi and Mu Yin came to their senses, apologized, and stepped aside.
The old lady chuckled as she watched them.
"You two are a young couple, right...?"
The old woman pointed at Mu Yin: "You like her."
She then pointed to Song Chi: "You like him too."
"You two will definitely have lots and lots of kids together, hehe~"
Song Chi: "..."
The old lady's words left her speechless.
Does she like older men? And older men like her too?
Her heart was pounding. She wasn't sure what these feelings were, but she knew she definitely had feelings for the older man.
However, Song Chi felt both shy and embarrassed when an elderly woman he didn't know told him that they would have many children in the future.
Mu Yin grinned.
"Grandma, thank you, I appreciate your kind words."
As Mu Yin spoke, he led Song Chi to the other side.
"Chichi, it's getting late. We've bought some things, let's go home and rest early."
Song Chi took a few deep breaths to suppress the unfamiliar emotions in his heart.
"good."
After what just happened, the two of them exuded an even stronger aura of pink bubbles.
The two chatted as they shopped for goods.
"Chichi, what did that person talk to you about just now?"
Song Chi recounted: "She probably knew my live streams were popular and thought I needed employees who could do handicrafts, so she wanted to work for me..."
Song Chi was both amused and exasperated: "I'm struggling to make ends meet myself, how could I possibly support employees!"
As Song Chi spoke, he packed the required fruit into bags.
"When she asked again another day, I had no choice but to politely decline!"
Mu Yin frowned and fell into deep thought.
Suddenly, he grabbed her wrist, his eyes lighting up.
"Yes, Chichi, now that you're famous, there will definitely be a lot of people buying things from you. I can't let you work yourself to the bone, so why don't you consider hiring some employees to help you make handmade jewelry!"
Song Chi's eyes widened in surprise: "Uncle, hiring employees requires a huge investment, and I haven't made any money yet..."
"This is too risky. I'd rather start a small business..."
Mu Yin knew what she was thinking and tried to persuade her.
“Chichi, I understand your reasoning. Producing and selling the products yourself is a safe approach, but…”
“You’re still in the early stages of pregnancy and can still move around, but you’re carrying triplets. Your pregnancy is earlier than others, and your symptoms will be more severe. It will cause you a lot of inconvenience. Are you just going to put this career on hold like this?”
"Or will you have to give up this career because of pregnancy and childbirth?"
Song Chi exclaimed in surprise: "Uncle, making handmade jewelry is not only my career, but also my hobby. I have never thought of putting it aside or giving it up."
Mu Yin smiled; of course he knew.
After spending this time together, he had come to understand her stubborn personality.
"Then how will you operate it when it's inconvenient for you in the future?"
He threw the question back at her.
"I……"
Song Chi was stunned for a moment.
She lowered her head, looking at her flat stomach, lost in thought.
Mu Yin suggested, "Chichi, my suggestion is to set up a small studio, hire people to do handicrafts, and you can be responsible for technical guidance and supervision. As for funding, you don't need to worry about it."
Song Chi looked at him in surprise: "Why don't I need to consider the funding aspect?"
Mu Yin smiled and gently ruffled her hair.
"Because I'm here!"
Song Chi: "..."
She stared intently at Mu Yin, a warm feeling washing over her.
"Pfft, silly girl, staring at me like that, are you mesmerized? Hmm?"
Song Chi: "..."
Her pretty face flushed slightly.
That uncle is really confident.
However, his confidence was not based on some kind of misplaced self-confidence.
His gentle words, "Because of me," seemed to have taken deep root in her heart.
After a long pause, Song Chi murmured, "Uncle, it's so good to have you."
She lowered her head, her eyes filled with unconcealed emotion.
Mu Yin rubbed her head.
"Silly girl, I'm your husband, it's only natural for me to be good to you!"
Song Chi was deeply moved. The older man was not only kind to her, but also a mentor in her career!
She pondered for a moment, then said carefully, "Uncle, I will seriously consider the matter of setting up a studio."
Although the older man was helping her, she didn't want the money he had worked so hard to earn to go to waste.
"Okay, have you chosen your items?"
"Um."
Let's go!
The two held hands and went to the bar to pay the bill.
As luck would have it, they ran into Xu Yue and her husband again.
There was a pleasant atmosphere between Song Chi and Mu Yin.
Sun Yaodong had a long face, and Xu Yue looked dejected; the atmosphere between the two was clearly off.
The four met face to face.
Xu Yue was carrying a bucket of cooking oil in one hand and couldn't wave to her, so she could only smile at Song Ci.
Sun Yaodong was playing on his phone with his head down, and suddenly grinned when he saw something.
Xu Yue clearly couldn't lift it anymore, but Sun Yaodong seemed not to notice, and made no attempt to help.
Song Chi felt somewhat depressed upon seeing this.
She felt that this Sun Yaodong was a bit of a scoundrel!
Xu Yue and Sun Yaodong had already paid the bill and left first.
Now it was their turn to pay the bill.
Song Chi subconsciously placed the items from the shopping cart on the checkout counter.
However, she had just picked up something.
Mu Yin then snatched it away first.
Mu Yin smiled and said, "Chichi, I'll do it. You wait here obediently."
Song Chi: "..."
The phrase "wait patiently" sounds like a father telling his daughter to be obedient and well-behaved.
Song Chi nodded, her face flushed.
"good."
Their shopping cart was full of items, including fruit and household goods.
When it was time to pay, the cashier said, "That'll be two hundred and forty in total..."
Song Chi's heart was bleeding.
A trip to the supermarket cost her over two hundred yuan, which was her entire night's income.
I didn't set up a stall tonight; I'll have to work harder next time.
Mu Yin paid the bill and carried two large, bulging shopping bags.
"Chichi, let's go home."
"Okay, sir, the shopping bags look heavy, I'll carry one."
"Need not."
Song Chi: "..."
She thought of Xu Yue and his wife and suddenly felt so lucky and happy to have met such a good husband!
The two walked side by side, chatting and laughing as they entered the elevator.
As luck would have it, I ran into Mr. and Mrs. Xu Yue again at the elevator entrance.
Xu Yue looked at Song Ci with empty hands and Mu Yin carrying heavy shopping bags, and her eyes were full of envy.
Mu Yin weighed the shopping bag in his hand.
"Chichi, why did you buy so much stuff? We already have these household items at home."
Song Chi smiled and said, "Uncle, Auntie is coming soon, so I prepared this for her."
Upon hearing this, Mu Yin grinned and said, "What are you planning to do with her? She's so old, doesn't she know how to buy things herself!"
Song Chi: "..."
She blinked. Even so, out of politeness, she naturally had to prepare in advance.
She didn't know, but Mu Yin naturally understood the common feelings of these people. However, he felt even more sorry for his wife.
Xu Yue overheard their conversation from the side.
She wiped her mouth and said, "Song Chi, is your mother-in-law coming?"
Song Chi nodded: "Mm."
Xu Yue's eyes flashed, and she came to her side, whispering, "Song Chi, you'd better be careful. The relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is the most difficult. When she comes to your house, don't let her bully you. You need to take the initiative and give her a hard time..."
