She opened the door, and Duan Biao was standing outside, looking embarrassed.
"Old Duan, have a good rest during the New Year."
Duan Biao hesitated for a moment, then finally managed to utter a sentence.
"Sister Lin, you too..."
Chapter 300: The Kitten's Fantasy
On the 26th day of the twelfth lunar month, Lin Man returned from the United States.
My mind was already foggy from jet lag, and then I heard the news that Lin Zemei was going to Shenzhen after I got off the plane.
She didn't react much, but she still didn't eat much that night and went back to her room to rest early.
Ding Heng was still worried, so he went in alone and closed the door.
"Boss, I just got back and I'm a bit tired. How about you find Yan hope and the others tonight..."
Lin Man was a little nervous as she tried to refuse Ding Heng for the first time.
"It's okay, I'll talk to you."
"Then I'll take a shower first..."
Lin Man went into the bathroom, the sound of water lasting longer than usual. Finally, she changed into ordinary pajamas and returned to Ding Heng, lying down in the man's arms.
"Boss, what did my mom say to you before she passed away?"
"Um……"
Ding Heng roughly recounted the conversation in Duan Biao's office that day, without embellishing or deliberately omitting anything.
Lin Man remained silent for a long time after listening.
"Don't worry, I think your mother is a sensible person. I'll help if necessary."
Ding Heng could understand Lin Zemei's thoughts.
He simply wanted to prepare a proper "dowry" for his daughter without relying on Ding Heng's help.
"Thank you, boss."
After receiving reassurance from Ding Heng, Lin Man felt much better.
She sniffed, but ultimately didn't cry out.
After waking up the next day, Lin Man adjusted her emotions and returned to normal.
After washing up and putting on makeup, I sat down in the study and started processing emails, the keyboard clattering all morning.
Later at the breakfast table, Lin Man planned another vacation to Hainan Island.
"Let's go on the third day of the Lunar New Year. On the first day, we still have to deal with my maternal grandparents, and on the second day, we have to accompany Yanxi back to her parents' home."
"it is good……"
Ding Heng buried his head in his porridge and responded with a sound.
Lin Man continued, "I've already made arrangements. It's the same villa as last time, and we'll stay there from the third day of the Lunar New Year until the Lantern Festival. Everyone's new swimsuits haven't been used yet, and they're always talking about them. I'll have to ask you, boss, to give them a rating."
"Okay, you can arrange it."
"And Baima and Wenshu..."
"Let's go together first. If it's really inconvenient, we'll arrange for them to stay in a hotel."
"Then I'll ask Wenshu for her opinion."
"Also, arrange caregivers and nannies for grandparents. They need to be clever and sweet-talking, as Longhe might come to visit for the New Year, so don't give anything away..."
"understand!"
Ding Heng finished his porridge, picked up his car keys, and went out.
Meanwhile, Zhao Yanxi's coffee shop has finally finished its renovation, and the equipment, instruments, tables, chairs and benches are all in place. The disassembly and assembly will be arranged after the New Year.
She stood in the center of the store, imagining the store becoming a huge hit in the future.
"Boss lady, do you need me to contact a used equipment recycler in advance?"
Zhao Yanxi suddenly turned around.
Ding Heng stood with his hands in his pockets, his posture lazy, and a smug smile on his face.
Zhao Yanxi raised her fist and punched him, complaining, "Brother Ding Heng! Can't you say something auspicious during the New Year?"
Ding Heng took the opportunity to grab her wrist and pull the girl into his arms: "Okay! Your mom just called to ask what time we'll arrive."
Zhao Yanxi hesitated, "How about I not go back this year and just say we've already gone on a trip?"
"Don't."
Ding Heng reached out and pinched the tip of her nose: "Your parents only have you as their daughter. How can you be so shameless during the New Year?"
"Sister Hua Qing is also an only child, why don't you let her go back?"
"Her family is different from yours!"
"Well……"
Zhao Yanxi pouted and didn't reply.
She knew Ding Heng was right, but she still didn't really want to go back.
I have to put on an act when I get back, and constantly be mindful of my behavior. It's exhausting...
"Give!"
Ding Heng took a car key out of his coat pocket and handed it to her.
Zhao Yanxi glanced at it and saw that it was a car logo she hadn't seen before. It was probably a domestic new energy vehicle brand.
"What is this?"
"Car keys."
Ding Heng shoved the keys into her hand: "You're going to be a boss's wife soon, you should have a car to get around in."
"how much is it?"
"Not much, cheaper than Xiao Jingjing's."
"Humph!"
Zhao Yanxi didn't dwell on it too much and happily pushed open the door to go out.
A black SUV that looks quite high-tech.
She opened the door, got into the driver's seat, touched the steering wheel, then the seat, and finally stuck her head out of the window.
"Around four hundred thousand?"
"Ah."
"Won't it be too conspicuous?"
“You’ve opened a shop, it’s normal to have a car.”
Of all the girls, Zhao Yanxi is the only one who doesn't have her own car yet. Ding Heng was too embarrassed to buy one for her in the past, but now the time is almost right.
"Let's go then!"
Zhao Yanxi's smile widened: "The boss lady is bringing her boyfriend home for the New Year!"
Because it was a new car, Zhao Yanxi didn't dare to drive too fast, and it took her nearly two hours to get home.
Zhou Rongmei and Zhao Xingguo were busy preparing lunch at home. They both came forward to greet them, and they seemed quite happy.
Zhao Xingguo, in particular, rarely smiled, a rare sight for someone who was usually so serious.
Zhao Yanxi changed her shoes and went over to sit down: "Dad, what's the good news? You seem so happy."
Zhao Xingguo replied, "Your uncle got engaged on the eighth day of the month."
Zhao Yanxi sprang up from the sofa.
"Holy crap! How come I didn't hear anything about something this big? Who could I have told?"
"The one from last time!"
"Tsk tsk... Goodness!"
Zhao Yanxi was dumbfounded... Could a fake girlfriend really become a real girlfriend?
Zhou Rongmei couldn't suppress the smile on her face.
“That girl is really good. She works at a bank, and her parents are both teachers. They are also very reliable people. Your uncle has been so picky for so many years, but he has finally found someone. Your grandparents and I can finally rest easy.”
With her younger brother getting married, Zhou Rongmei, as the older sister, could finally breathe a sigh of relief, knowing that from now on, only her daughter would be a worry to worry about.
Zhao Yanxi slumped back onto the sofa, a thought creeping into her mind.
So, his own mother didn't even know that his uncle's girlfriend was a fake?
But then I thought, it's unlikely that this could be kept from my dad.
Since Dad didn't say anything, it means that Uncle had given instructions, and that "Auntie" was relatively innocent.
Zhou Rongmei continued, "You should be free on the eighth day, right? Don't let your uncle stand you up for his engagement."
"The eighth day..."
Zhao Yanxi was in a dilemma.
Lin Man has arranged for everyone to go to Hainan Island on the third day of the Lunar New Year, but it's unclear when they'll be back.
Ding Heng immediately replied, "Don't worry, Auntie, we'll definitely be there."
Zhou Rongmei nodded in satisfaction and got up to continue working in the kitchen.
The lunch table was lavish, with a total of six dishes and a soup.
Halfway through the meal, Zhou Rongmei casually asked her daughter for gossip.
"By the way, Yan hope, Wenjing didn't come back for the Chinese New Year again this year?"
