Chapter 178 The best years of youth!
Why are you making so many calls? Is there something urgent?
Without even having time to eat the fruit, Yan Ruo quickly called back. The call was picked up after one ring and she asked anxiously.
"What's wrong? Did something happen?"
[I'm fine. I called you so many times but you didn't answer. I thought something happened to you.]
"I'm fine too." Yan Ruo patted his chest and explained, "I was just cleaning the room and didn't see it."
[Cleaning the room? I thought you were too busy chatting with others to pay attention to me.]
Yan Ruo smiled and said, "Even if we're chatting, we can't chat for an hour or two."
So, who is that man?
"Old classmate."
[Why do you have so many old classmates? ]
Yan Ruo shook her head and sighed, "For the past twenty or thirty years, I've either been working or studying. Everyone I know is either a colleague or a classmate."
"Isn't it normal to run into a few old classmates in South City?"
Xu Shaoyu was speechless. After two seconds, he said, "Then I'll take you to meet more new friends."
Yan Ruo said okay, but she felt a little disapproving in her heart.
Over the years, Xu Shaoyu only had two friends, Su Yue and Song Yichuan. The others were all people he met in the business world.
It's either for cooperation or for profit. She doesn't have much money, so why introduce her to someone?
In the next few days, Yan Ru was very busy, running between the operation center and the factory, and even went back home once in the middle.
Seeing her tired face, Yan's mother felt a little distressed. "Don't work too hard, your health is more important."
Yan Ruo leaned back on the sofa and said, "It's okay. I just went to North City a while ago and there were a lot of things piled up, so I've been a little busy these past few days."
Yan's mother was picking soybeans. Upon hearing this, she threw the beans that were either shriveled or rotten into the small basin next to her.
"How is Xiao Xu now? You guys drive around outside often, so be careful not to drive too fast and be sure to pay attention to safety."
"I see. He was pretty unlucky this time. He's almost recovered now."
Yan Ruo moved a chair and sat opposite Yan Ma, supporting her chin with one hand and slowly helping to choose with the other.
"Mom, why did you pick these?"
"I'm done with my busy schedule, so I can make tofu at home. I can even make soy milk in the morning. Since I have some free time, I might as well pick some out and prepare them."
Yan Ruo nodded, then shook her head. Her parents were just like that, never idle for a moment.
After a moment's silence, Yan's mother asked casually, "Did you meet Xiao Xu's family when you went to Beicheng this time?"
"Yes."
"So how do they treat you?"
Knowing what she was worried about, Yan Ruo pursed her lips and said, "Don't worry, his grandparents are very good to me."
"What about his mother? Let me tell you, the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law has always been the most difficult to handle. You know, so many couples have broken up because of it. His grandparents are old after all, so the most important thing is his mother's attitude."
Thinking of Lin Shuyun, every time I see her, her nose is not a nose and her eyes are not eyes.
Yan Ruo scratched his head and started telling lies in order not to make his mother worry.
"His mother... is also quite easy to get along with. However, Xu Shaoyu and his mother don't have a good relationship, and they won't be living together in the future, so don't worry."
It is said that no one knows a daughter better than her mother.
There was a slight hesitation in her tone, which was immediately noticed. Yan's mother looked up at her with suspicion in her eyes.
Yan Ruo quickly changed the subject.
"Oh, Mom, I'm going to South City the day after tomorrow. I'll pack these beans and use them to make soy milk."
"Go get a bag and fill it with as much as you want. These are all grown by the villagers themselves, and the soy milk they make is even more fragrant. I'll buy some more in a couple of days."
When Yan Ruo arrived in Nancheng this time, Chi Yu had already returned from a business trip.
The two of them had a meal together and talked about their recent situation.
Hearing about the severity of Xu Shaoyu's car accident, Chi Yu couldn't help but sigh.
"The world of the rich is really dangerous."
Yan Ruo took a sip of juice and said, "It should be said that madmen are scary enough, but wealthy madmen are even more lethal."
Chi Yu stared at her for a long time, then suddenly asked, "According to your current progress, you are not about to have good things happen, right?"
Every time she chatted with Chi Yu, she would take a sudden turn. Yan Ruo didn't know why she could change the subject so quickly.
I couldn't help but shake my head, "Not so fast."
Chi Yu disagreed. "You've known each other for so many years and have met each other's parents. Why are you still dragging it out?"
He frowned and said, "Mr. Xu is a grown man, it's okay to delay for a few years. But we women can't do that. We can't waste our best years of youth."
Yan Ruo lowered her eyes. Apart from a few joking mentions, it seemed that Xu Shaoyu had never formally told her about marriage.
I looked up and saw Chi Yu looking at me eagerly, and I couldn't help but smile.
"In my prime youth, I'm not ready to enter the grave of love."
"Besides, we rarely get together now, so it's unrealistic to talk about this."
Chi Yu stretched out her index finger and shook it left and right. "Whether it's realistic or not, we need to talk about it first. Then we can solve it together."
But this is not something that can be solved by just thinking about it.
During the time Yan Ruo went to Beicheng, Zhao Jie led the two people in the operation center to achieve good results. As a result, the workload also increased.
After some discussion, two new employees were hired.
In order to help everyone get familiar with the job as quickly as possible, Yan Ruo decided to treat everyone to a meal after the two new employees arrived.
The advantage of a small team is that there are fewer people and the relationships are simple.
As long as the old employees don’t form small groups, new employees can integrate quickly.
Yan Ruo was not a person who liked to put on airs, and Zhao Jie was also a very kind person. After asking for everyone's opinions, she didn't even order any drinks.
After the meal, the group became more familiar with each other.
Seeing that everyone had almost finished eating, Yan Ruo asked, "Are you all full? Do you want more food?"
Zhao Jie smiled but said nothing, while the others waved their hands.
"No need, Mr. Yan, I'm full."
"Yes, we can't finish all the dishes on the table, so don't add more."
After waiting for a while and seeing several people put down their chopsticks one after another, Yan Ruo picked up her bag and went to the front desk to pay the bill.
When checking out, I suddenly remembered that Chi Yu loved eating this place’s brown sugar rice cake. “Hello, can you pack me another serving of brown sugar rice cake?”
After a while, other people came over one after another, and Yan Ruo quickly spoke.
"I packed some food, it'll take a while, why don't you guys go first?"
Zhao Jie smiled and said, "It won't take too long. We'll wait for you."
"Okay." Yan Ruo didn't refuse. "I just thought about it. The idea Zhang Xu proposed during dinner is not bad. Let's go to the company tomorrow to discuss it in detail."
The two chatted for a few more minutes, and the brown sugar rice cake that Yan Ruo had ordered was packed and delivered to her.
Yan Ruo took it and said, "Thank you."
"Yan Ruo."
When I turned around to leave, I was stopped by a voice behind me.
