Chapter 471. Business deal
Aunt Ma knew the insider story and was clear how Lin Qing He treated this niece in the past. She had wanted to train her.
Who could have known that she did such a thing?
In the end, Zhao Family did take responsibility. But would it be over after that? Look at younger self, and one'll see their older self. The character of a person can be revealed in such matter.
Aunt Ma felt that Lin Qing He's dislike wasn't harsh. It was reasonable, because she was in education sector. It would be weird that she would agree to this kind of act.
Aunt Ma was very supportive of Lin Qing He.
She disliked Xu Sheng Mei even more, because Xu Sheng Mei looked down on her. It was like this in the past. When her uncle and aunt were present, she would help with the table or something, as if she was very diligent.
When her uncle and aunt were gone, she would be lazy. She wouldn't help even if the soy sauce was spilled.
However, Aunt Ma hadn't said anything about it. It was her work. She didn't need help. She can handle it.
While Zhou Er Ni was a true good girl. Now she was dating a young and promising boss like Wang Yuan, it couldn't be any more perfect.
How well did Wang Yuan treat Er Ni can be seen clearly by the helper, Aunt Ma. Zhao Jun couldn't compare.
When Zhao Jun came over to the dumpling shop, he would complain the shop was too small one moment and that they should buy more fans or something next. After coming over, he was like a master waiting for someone to support him.
Truly sick in the mind.
Lin Qing He and Aunt Ma had always had something to say, but Lin Qing He didn't bother to say anything about Xu Sheng Mei.
In the evening, when Zhou Er Ni and Zhou Si Ni came back for dinner. Lin Qing He asked Zhou Er Ni.
"Just went to sit around," Zhou Er Ni answered.
"Your temperament can't outplay her. Don't get too close to her, understand?" Lin Qing He warned.
"Fourth Aunt, don't worry. My second sister knows it well. She's clear that Sister Sheng Mei is aiming Second Brother-in-law's clothing factory when interacting with her." Zhou Si Ni spoke.
This lass changed her way of addressing very quickly. Because Wang Yuan gave her a watch, she swiftly changed the title and called him Second Brother-in-law.
It was fine. Wang Yuan and Zhou Er Ni were in this current state. Just short of holding a wedding. So she called Brother-in-law.
"Just keep in mind." Lin Qing He said with satisfaction.
Since Xu Sheng Mei's visit began, she had never went to see Er Ni. What deep cousinly affection? It started only when she knew that Zhou Er Ni dated a wealthy and capable boyfriend, Wang Yuan.
Since then, every time she come over, she would find Zhou Er Ni to make it seem like they were close.
Zhou Er Ni smiled and replied, "I know, Fourth Aunt. you don't have to worry."
"If Fourth Aunt find out that you let her take advantage, see if Fourth Aunt will forgive you." Lin Qing He said.
Zhou Er Ni smiled softly. She really didn't have much chat with this cousin, Xu Sheng Mei.
If there was any difficulty, she will help as much as she can. After all, they were relatives. But she also got her own principles. She will not allow it if it exceed her own principles.
Lin Qing He didn't say anything. After all, people's personalities were different. Er Ni's personality was naturally kind and gentle. Otherwise, how could she fascinate Wang Yuan.
Wasn't it her traits that Wang Yuan liked?
Moreover, with Wang Yuan present, Lin Qing He wasn't too worried. He was a big boss with nearly 500 employees under his hand. That was to say, to be able to manage such big factory, he got good moves despite behaving so friendly on their side.
"Last time Wang Yuan likes the fish gelatin you gave last time and asked me to buy him a hundred yuan of it." Zhou Er Ni remembered.
"How can he eat so much by himself? Give him half a jin. Can't always eat it. Eat it twice a week is more like it." Lin Qing He responded.
She and her family Qing Bai ate it twice a week. Same for the children.
"He probably plan to take it home. He also wants to buy some sea cucumber and abalone." Zhou Er Ni spoke.
"Getting it for old Wang Family." Lin Qing He said. She knew that Wang Yuan's mother didn't like Er Ni very much. Still, she gave a 20% discount.
If Wang Yuan wants to eat, she can stew it and call him over to eat together. However, Lin Qing He didn't care about Wang Family much.
Wang Yuan was indeed going to take it back home. He didn't go back many times now. Mainly because he didn't want to go back to hear his mother complain about him going to marry a country wife.
But in the end he was the son. He'll be filial when he should. What's more, his factory could run so smoothly was more or less linked to his family.
Although this time a lot of good stuffs was brought back, Mother Wang still didn't give any good face.
Wang Yuan found it meaningless to stay and went straight back here after a night. He preferred the atmosphere at old Zhou's house, which was relaxed and at ease.
So Wang Yuan didn't open stove very much by himself. He either went to eat at Father Zhou and Mother Zhou's side, or went to the dumpling shop. The rest was eaten at the factory. In one month, he spent half of it at old Zhou's house.
He could also feel that old Zhou family was nice to him and really regarded him as their own.
In fact, the reason why Wang Yuan wouldn't take the road arranged by his family was because he felt that their Wang family was too depressing. Including his two brothers. They actually took the political road.
Their wives were basically arranged by the family. Wang Yuan can sense that the feelings between his brothers and sisters-in-law weren't great.
Therefore, Wang Yuan felt it was fortunate that he had got into business. Because he made good progress, he had his own right to speak. Even when his voice was small in the whole family, he can at least find a wife who he likes and also likes him.
When he returned to the factory that day, he ran into Xu Sheng Mei in the living room.
"Second Brother-in-law." Seeing him come back, Xu Sheng Mei got up and smilingly greeted: "Second Brother-in-law, I heard the manager say that you might not come over today."
Wang Yuan naturally recognized Xu Sheng Mei and knew about her matters. He asked, "What's the matter?"
"Second Brother-in-law, I want to talk to you about a business deal." Xu Sheng Mei looked at his expression and knew that it wasn't time for small talks. She went straight to the point.
"You?" Wang Yuan glanced at her and spoke, "Want to talk business with me, get your man come over. My orders aren't small."
Xu Sheng Mei choked and said, "Second Brother-in-law, the order I want isn't small."
"Then you can talk to my manager. Remember, you have to pay a 30% deposit first." After Wang Yuan finished speaking, he beckoned his childhood friend. Then he turned around and went into his office.
Xu Sheng Mei's expression was a bit ugly. She didn't expect Wang Yuan to be so awkward to talk with. When he was with her grandparents, he was buttering them up.
"Have you brought the 30% deposit? Our side is pay on the spot." The manager said.

Thanks for the update.
ReplyDeleteHahaha! In your face XSM
ReplyDeleteAs easy going as Wang Yuan is, He is A big Boss. Sheng Mei doesn't have that much achievement to talk business with people with his standards.
ReplyDeleteNah. The one who found Wang Yuan and "made the path" for LQH to be his business partner was ZQB. At that time, LQH and ZQB hadn't had much achievement in fabric/clothes business. It's not about achievement at this period of time (because it's still a period of budding start-up businessmen). It's more about the attitude and characters, imo.
DeleteLQH and ZQB clearly carry on themselves as a trustworthy business partners: well-planned, well-prepared, quick-witted, and having vision. Meanwhile, XSM is infamous as a white lotus. She has shown a character of a creeper plant: it can't grow high without leaning on another sturdy tree. It's hard for a boss such as WY to recommend someone like her as potential business partner. And he wouldn't recommend it for himself either. Sending her to his manager/childhood friend is already the most civil and giving her the best opportunity he can give her.
haha..thankfully and hopefully Wang Yuan and Erni will live well after marriage. This XSM ..really don't know when to stop. She might get betrayed by her hubby.due to her being close with that Zhang girl who sells flesh.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the chapter.
_cloverlin here
Thanks for the chapter.
ReplyDeletethinking about business suddenly reminded me of wang ling.......
ReplyDeleteSheng Mei is smart, but she's using it so insincerely. People who are good judge of characters can certainly pick her apart, especially a shrewd boss like Wang Yuan. Fortune favors the bold, but she has to know her limit.
ReplyDeleteyeah, she had many good opportunities to improve her station in life.
Deletebeautiful (people tend to trust you faster if you are attractive), can actually sweet talk (doesn't work on lqh's family due to being exposed as a white lotus) and kinda smart (sadly under utilized bc upbringing and own laziness), these are qualities that could have been useful for her in the capital.
such a shame that she just keep sabotaging herself.
i don't mind xsm 's ambition, lqh is ambitious to an extent and i love her to death, but xsm just wants it easy and fast. to be ambitious you have to back it up with hard work and patience. talent sure can help a lot but it's useless if you're lazy.
@Anonymous of 3 June 2022 Yep. Totally agree!
DeleteA user through and through
ReplyDeleteThis is why XSM failed as a white lotus, she's too narrow-minded and thinks everyone owes her.
