Chapter 77: Zhao Yanyan Agrees to the Invitation, Su Lin Makes Final Preparations!
Upon Lin Xiaowan's agreement, Su Lin also began to look forward to it.
He was curious about how Zhao Yanyan, working in the enemy's company, would react to Lin Tian's proposal to join their venture in opening a supermarket. Although he had never met Lin Tian, Su Lin was already anticipating his reaction.
Alright~! Stop standing here. Xiaoyu is coming, I'll go give her the gift.
Su Lin nodded, And bring me my lunchbox on your way back.
You can't go get it yourself? Lin Xiaowan reflexively retorted Su Lin, then wrinkled her nose and walked towards Xia Shiyu.
Su Lin didn't mind this at all. Xiaowan always seemed eager to pick a fight with whatever he said, probably because she never got the upper hand and wanted to win against him for once. But Su Lin never played by the book, denying her the chance.
Xiaowan, did you go to Donghai for fun yesterday?
Yeah, Xiaoyu. It's a pity you weren't there. I was so bored. Xiaoyu, I brought you a gift back.
A gift~!
Of course...
Watching Lin Xiaowan looking like she wanted to chat with Xia Shiyu and don't have the intention of getting it for him, Su Lin shook his head, stood up, and went to get the lunchbox. Xiaoyu, what did you make for breakfast this morning?
Su Lin, you really know how to exploit labor. Xiaoyu is always helping you in the supermarket whenever she's free, and she still has to cook breakfast for you every day, without any repeats.
Xia Shiyu gently smiled and said, Xiaowan, don't blame Su Lin. I do these things willingly.
If only he knew his luck, Lin Xiaowan said as she shook her head in disbelief.
Su Lin shrugged, If you want to eat, just say so. I'm not going to stop you, no need to beat around the bush.
Who wants to eat? I had breakfast before I came, okay?
Ah... sincere woman.
Su Lin, you stand right there, what did you just say...
Su Lin shrugged and turned to Xia Shiyu with a smile, Let Xiaoyu open her gift. I'm curious about it.
Xia Shiyu put the box on the table, I'll open it at home.
Look at Xiaoyu, then look at yourself, Su Lin. You even threw away the packaging.
Su Lin was unperturbed by Lin Xiaowan's disdainful look, Go whisper to Xiaoyu. She's been dying to know where you went yesterday.
Lin Xiaowan pouted and sat down next to Xia Shiyu, sharing her experiences in Donghai City yesterday.
Despite constantly bickering with Su Lin, Lin Xiaowan kept his words in her heart. In the evening after school, she messaged Zhao Yanyan, asking if she wanted to come to Zhongjiang for the May Day holiday.
Xiaowan, its already May Day, and the college entrance exam is just a month away. How do I have time to play?
Seeing Zhao Yanyans refusal, Lin Xiaowan was not surprised. She continued, Yanyan, dont you want to meet Su Lin? Why the sudden lack of urgency now?
Hehe, Xiaowan, I know you too well. If your relationship with him reaches that stage, you would definitely bring him to meet me. If its not there yet, my visit now would just be a futile joy.
After a pause, Zhao Yanyan spoke with an odd tone, Xiaowan, you must have something to ask me, right?
Hmm?
We havent met often, Xiaowan, but precisely because of this, you wouldnt contact me without a reason. Is there something up today, given this unusual behavior?
Hearing Zhao Yanyans words, Lin Xiaowan had no choice but to say, Actually Su Lin and I started a company together, and this May Day, our supermarket opens. I want to invite you to see it and celebrate together.
What!!!! You you started a company? Zhao Yanyans voice suddenly rose by eight degrees, almost making Lin Xiaowan faint on the spot.
Yanyan, can you not be so dramatic? Its just a company. Lin Xiaowan said nonchalantly.
Ah Xiaowan, its not been long since we met. Youre already talking so big, just a company, huh?
A supermarket? How much did you guys invest?
Not much, its all Su Lins money. Since its the first supermarket, we invested more. I heard from Su Lin that the plan was to invest two million, and weve already spent over a million. Lin Xiaowan said uncertainly.
Financial matters were managed by Xia Shiyu, and Lin Xiaowan absolutely trusted her, so she never inquired about the accounts.
Two million is not much? Xiaowan I have to reevaluate you. Its been less than a year, and youve impressed me so many times. Time and time again, youve refreshed my understanding.
Zhao Yanyan almost jumped out of bed when she heard the figure of two million. Thats two million! Are young people nowadays all this impressive?
Hehe, maybe its because Ive been with Su Lin for a long time, I dont really have a concept of money anymore. Yanyan, Im serious, come over for May Day. If you do, I can arrange a ribbon-cutting spot for you. We can cut the ribbon together. Lin Xiaowan tempted.
Smart as Zhao Yanyan was, she guessed that Lin Xiaowans invitation to Zhongjiang was not just for ribbon-cutting. But she wasnt worried; Xiaowan wouldnt harm her. She was also curious about this Su Lin Lin Xiaowan kept mentioning.
Xiaowan, since you put it that way, I definitely have to go. Otherwise, I guess you wont even bother with me later, Zhao Yanyan said with a laugh.
How could that be possible? Yanyan, I dont have many friends, and I wouldnt just give up on them.
Hehe Its May Day then, Ill definitely be there.
Yep yep.
After hanging up, Lin Xiaowan clenched her fist and made a yeah gesture. Deep down, she didnt want to introduce Zhao Yanyan to Su Lin, but she understood that bringing Zhao Yanyan into the fold was a very wise move.
Ultimately, she coaxed Zhao Yanyan over for Su Lin and the companys development. Zhao Yanyan, too, fell into thought after hanging up. She had too little information at hand, but it wasnt hard for her to analyze.
Especially Lin Xiaowans call. She guessed Lin Xiaowans invitation to Zhongjiang was either to use her family background for help, to bring her into the partnership, or just to introduce her to Su Lin.
Why think so much? Just go and find out. Su Lin, such an ordinary name. Where does your charm come from that keeps Xiaowan talking about you? Im a bit curious too.
On the other side, Su Lin received a call from Lin Xiaowan, telling him Zhao Yanyan agreed to come over for the May Day holiday.
Su Lin was overjoyed, Xiaowan, you really have a way.
Hehe I dont have any methods. Its just that Yanyan is interested in you. Lin Xiaowan said with a hint of jealousy on her tone.
Heh~! Even Xiaowan gets jealous. It seems Zhao Yanyans charm is really great. Im actually quite looking forward to meeting her now. Su Lin said with a smile.
Su Lin~!!!
Alright, alright, dont talk so loud, its bad for your vocal cords. Xiaowan, see you tomorrow.
See you tomorrow.
After hanging up, Su Lin called Chen Yang to make final preparations for the opening. Yangzi, are the flyers for our Quan Le Gou ready?
Theyre ready, Lin Ge. I was just about to discuss this with you. When do we start printing, and how many?
Su Lin chuckled, How many? Make sure every person in Zhongjiang city gets one. Print me half a million copies, then find some temporary workers to distribute them throughout the city. Make sure every part of the city gets our supermarkets opening flyers.
That Brother Lin, this will cost a bit.
Is money a problem? Once the reputation is out, well make it back in a few days, especially during the opening days. Just think about the income with hundreds of thousands in the city, even if only one percent come.
Chen Yangs scalp tingled at the thought.
Alright Yangzi, just do as I say.
Okay, Brother Lin. Ill do as you ask.
Mm-hmm, start tomorrow. I want every dog in Zhongjiang to know about Quanlegous opening.
Chen Yang:
