Reborn in 1990: My Family Store Leads to the Future

After finishing his business, it was around four or five o'clock. Lu Yuan had just arrived at his shop when he saw Tan Tingting chatting with someone.

The two were chatting quite happily and didn't even realize that Lu Yuan had arrived.

Lu Yuan walked over in a serious manner and coughed lightly.

What do you do during work hours?

"Sister Huanhuan, the boss is back."

When Tan Tingting saw him, she quickly smiled and waved at him, then said to the people around her.

Li Huan turned around when he heard footsteps, a warm smile on his face.

"Lu Yuan, where have you been?"

"I went to check out the shops and talked to people about the renovations."

The moment he saw her, Lu Yuan felt inexplicably relieved and explained with a smile.

Li Huan was a little puzzled when he heard this.

"Didn't you just renovate Snow King Milk Tea...or did you open another shop?"

I guess so.

The story is a long one, and Lu Yuan was reluctant to share these somewhat upsetting things with her. He simply smiled and nodded, which could be considered as agreeing with her.

Upon hearing this, Li Huan's face instantly broke into a bright smile, clearly surprised.

"I didn't expect you to have opened another shop. That's really something else."

As she spoke, her eyes were filled with admiration for Lu Yuan.

Tan Tingting was stunned. She hadn't expected that Li Huan had specifically sought out Lu Yuan. Could it be that she liked Lu Yuan?

Thinking of this, she subconsciously revealed a slight aunt-like smile.

Lu Yuan asked, "Why are you here?"

"There's something I want to ask you."

Li Huan thought for a moment, then took out an application form from her bag and handed it over.

"I promised to help you before, but I didn't end up doing so. But this time, I'm serious."

Lu Yuan took it and looked at it, then froze in surprise.

Seeing this, Li Huan seemed to be trying to take credit.

"Here's the thing, we're planning to develop a themed street along the Bund. I think you should be very competitive. Fill out this form and give it to me, and I'll submit it for you."

"There shouldn't be any reports this time, right?"

Lu Yuan glanced at the form in his hand and subconsciously asked a question.

Li Huan, who had just been quite proud of himself, scratched his head a little embarrassed after hearing these words.

She really didn't know what to say.

Last time, we were choosing a shop, so even the slightest blemish was unacceptable.

That's why Lu Yuan was not selected, but this time it's different, the restrictions have been relaxed a lot.

"This time it definitely won't happen again."

Li Huan quickly held up a few fingers to assure him, then reminded him with some concern.

"However, there's one thing you should pay attention to: there might be more competitors this time, so the competition could be a bit intense."

"I take that as a joke. With your connections, I'm confident I can definitely win the competition!"

Lu Yuan looked at her and said, "Don't worry, I will definitely not let you down."

"That's good."

Hearing this, Li Huan nodded with satisfaction, then looked at Lu Yuan with great seriousness and said in a solemn tone.

"However, there's one thing I need to correct you on: I won't use any connections with you. You can only rely on your own abilities, understand?"

"clear!"

After putting the form away, Lu Yuan looked at her and said.

"Speaking of which, you've done me such a big favor, I should treat you to a meal, but I have something to do this afternoon and need to go to the furniture store, so I can't stay with you any longer."

"It's alright, you go ahead and do your work."

Li Huan was stunned for a moment, a subconscious sense of disappointment creeping into her heart.

At that moment, she noticed that the person behind her had a strange expression. She didn't realize it at first, but then she realized what it meant.

He hurried to the door and saw that Lu Yuan had not left yet, so he asked him a question.

"Lu Yuan, if you're not busy, could I go with you?"

"Doesn't this take up your time?"

Lu Yuanwo asked.

Li Huan shook his head repeatedly and took a few steps to stand in front of him.

She wore jeans and a light blue shirt, looking both poised and playful.

"No, I was already off work. I just brought you something. After you've finished looking after it for me, you have to treat me to dinner."

"No problem."

Lu Yuan thought about his own straight-man aesthetic sense and felt that it would be a good thing to have someone to consult with him.

This is a good opportunity to invite her to dinner.

The two rode away side by side, their shadows stretched long in the setting sun.

Li Huan was thoroughly enjoying the moment and asked with a smile.

Why are we going to the building materials market now?

"I'm not just hiring a few new people, I'm thinking of preparing a dormitory for them, which will also help alleviate some of the trouble."

At this point, Lu Yuan gave a brief explanation.

Li Huan suddenly realized: "I was wondering why you had time to run around. So you found someone to help you?"

"I can't handle everything by myself, so it's good to have other people help me, so I can free up my hands to do other things."

Lu Yuan gave a brief explanation.

The two quickly arrived at the furniture store, which had three floors. Lu Yuan already had a target in mind, so he headed straight for the bed section on the second floor.

He started picking out bedding as soon as he arrived. Li Huan, who was standing to the side, was taken aback for a moment before asking him a question.

"Are you planning to just buy a bed?"

"Yes, after all, it's for the staff to live in, so it can't be too shabby."

Lu Yuan said.

Li Huan approached a bunk bed and hesitated slightly before asking.

"Why don't you consider these bunk beds? I remember sleeping in beds like these when I was in school, and they saved me a lot of trouble."

Lu Yuan looked at the blue steel-framed bed, unsure how to respond for a moment. After a slight hesitation, he shook his head and said...

"I'm providing this room for my employees, not for students. This one-meter-wide bed is actually a bit small. It looks nice, but it's not big enough for adults."

Lu Yuan had considered it, but after careful consideration, he ultimately abandoned his initial idea.

Li Huan was stunned when she heard this. She hadn't thought that much about it at first, and she felt a little frustrated.

They came to help, but ended up making things worse.

However, she quickly adjusted her emotions, took a few steps to a steel bed, raised her hand and pressed it, feeling very secure.

"A different one would be much better, and it doesn't look particularly big. What do you think?"

"That's certainly possible."

Lu Yuan sat down and tried it out. He thought the bed was indeed good and had enough support. Even a grown man wouldn't have any major problems sleeping on it.

At this moment, the boss walked over with a smile and said happily.

"You two are here to buy a bed, right? Judging from your appearance, are you looking for a wedding bed? This bed is fine, but I would recommend another one, which looks much more festive."
