On the way home, Sun Quan thought about Wu Jing's appointment with him today and what he said, still feeling a little unbelievable.
When did Wu Jing become like this?
For tens of thousands of yuan in franchise fees, she came to see him as her ex-boyfriend, so she had no other choice?
Judging from how she was dressed today, she didn't look like she was in such a miserable state!
After thinking for a while, he couldn't figure out why she would talk to him like this. He couldn't help shaking his head slightly and sighing several times.
That night, when he had a video chat with Yuan Shuiqing, who was raising a baby in Shanghai, he wanted to tell her about this several times, but he held back several times.
It's not that he wants to hide some little secret, but that he is worried that this matter will make her think too much, cause emotional fluctuations, and affect her ability to raise a baby.
Her pregnancy was inherently risky, and he wasn't sure if she would think wildly if he told her about it. Although based on his understanding of her, he felt that she wouldn't think wildly, but what if?
He didn't dare to take any risks.
But Yuan Shuiqing knew him very well. They had been married for several years. Sun Quan was hesitant to speak several times tonight, which she noticed, so she took the initiative to ask.
"Is there something you want to tell me?"
Sun Quan shook his head and denied, "No! It's nothing, really."
Yuan Shuiqing looked at him suspiciously, "You lied!"
Sun Quan shook his head, "No!"
Yuan Shuiqing: "Haha, do you know that I can tell every time you lie? Tell me! What is going on?"
Sun Quan was stunned, "Real or fake? Can you tell? Did I expose myself somewhere?"
Yuan Shuiqing: "Oh, your words have exposed you! So, tell me what is going on!"
Sun Quan: "..."
At this moment, Sun Quan was suspicious - did she tell from his expression that he had lied, or was it really just a lie from the above sentence?
"You haven't said it yet?"
Yuan Shuiqing urged.
Sun Quan was speechless, thought for a moment, looked at her still-not-obvious pregnancy belly, nodded, and while paying attention to her expression, told her about her meeting with Wu Jing today.
He spoke very slowly, always ready to stop and calm her down.
The results of it?
Until he finished speaking, her expression remained calm, and there was even a hint of a smile on her lips.
"You're not angry?"
Sun Quan was a little skeptical.
Yuan Shuiqing smiled slightly, "What's there to be angry about? You didn't waive her franchise fee! You didn't touch our children's milk powder money, so I won't doubt you."
Sun Quan blinked, a little confused, "Our child's money?"
"That's right! Isn't all our money money for our children's milk powder? Why should I be angry if you didn't touch the children's milk powder money?"
The smile on Yuan Shuiqing's lips became even thicker.
Sun Quan couldn't laugh or cry.
…
The same night.
In City M, after Wu Jing's husband came home, he saw her watching TV in the living room. The first thing he asked was: "Dear, have you really found that schoolmate of yours? He really doesn't agree to reduce the franchise fee for us at all."
?You told him, are you and him alumni?"
Hearing this, Wu Jing didn't take her eyes off the TV and hummed, "I said it, but he just didn't agree. What can I do? Otherwise, let's stop doing this franchise store! If you don't do it, you don't have to pay.
The franchise fee is due.”
"That won't work! We want to open that franchise store, not for the franchise fee. Besides, I'm just asking you to try it. If you don't want to reduce it, don't reduce it! The store still has to open!"
Her husband came over and talked about his opinions, but he did not give up the idea of opening a franchise store at all.
Wu Jing couldn't help but look at him, but didn't refute.
…
One night a few days later.
Or M city.
Teacher Qin Yuxin’s home.
Tan Yuxin and her husband were leaning on the bedside in the bedroom watching TV. The couple were both wearing loose pajamas. Even though Tan Yuxin was no longer young, the pajamas on her upper body even had a cartoon pattern on them!
The couple seemed to have a good relationship. They were leaning side by side on the bed, watching TV, with happy smiles on their faces.
What was being played on TV was Blueberry Channel's "The Birth of an Actress."
Several actors on the TV were performing on the stage. Several instructors on the TV and the audience were all watching the performance on the stage with different expressions, just like the Qin Yuxin couple in front of the TV.
Suddenly, the mobile phone on the bedside table rang.
The couple looked over.
The man said: "It's your cell phone!"
Qin Yuxin hummed, leaned forward and reached for her mobile phone. She looked at the caller ID and seemed a little surprised, "It was Xiaoyun who called..."
"Xiaoyun? Why is she calling you now?" The man looked confused.
"I don't know. I'll know just by listening and watching. Please turn down the TV volume!"
"Hey, okay."
While they were talking, one of the couple took the remote control to turn down the TV volume, and the other answered the call.
"Um, oh, oh, okay! Okay, okay! Yes, your uncle and I are at home! Come over here! Okay, okay! Then we'll wait until you arrive, um, okay, goodbye! Drive carefully on the road!
Don't be anxious, drive slowly, okay! Okay!"
After answering the call, Qin Yuxin put down the phone after replying for a while.
The call has ended.
The man looked surprised, "Are Xiaoyun and the others coming to our house soon?"
Qin Yuxin: "Well, he said he has something to tell us, so he should make a call first to confirm whether we are at home. We will probably be here soon."
"She comes with her husband?"
"Yep!"
"What's going on? Didn't she say anything on the phone just now?"
"Well, I didn't say it! Okay, don't ask so many questions now. They will be here soon. Let's get up and get ready first! Do you want to change clothes?"
…
Soon.
The couple did not change clothes, but just moved from the bedroom to the living room to wait, still wearing pajamas. The man sat on the sofa and smoked, while Qin Yuxin went to make a few cups of tea.
About twenty minutes later, the doorbell rang.
Qin Yuxin hurriedly opened the door and welcomed in a young man and woman about thirty years old.
The man is elegant and elegant, wearing a pair of silver-rimmed glasses, blue jeans, a plaid shirt, and a pair of brown casual leather shoes.
The woman's face is somewhat similar to Qin Yuxin's. She also wears blue jeans, a moon-white shirt, and a pair of white high-heeled leather shoes.
As soon as Qin Yuxin opened the door, she heard her calling: "Auntie, where is my uncle?"
The man also smiled and shouted: "Hello, aunt!"
"Come in, come in! Your uncle is inside! Come in quickly!"
Qin Yuxin welcomed them in enthusiastically. From their names and the fact that the young woman had a face that was somewhat similar to hers, Qin Yuxin should be this woman's aunt, related by blood.
The two of them were warmly welcomed into the living room by Qin Yuxin. After the four of them exchanged polite greetings, Qin Yuxin asked them with a smile on their face what they were here for.
After all, on the phone just now, Xiaoyun said that they came over to tell them something.
By the way, the young woman who came in just now with a face somewhat similar to Tan Yuxin is Xiaoyun.
The young man is her husband. When Tan Yuxin greeted him just now, she called "Xiaojun".
"Auntie, uh, I heard... the 99 Braised Chicken that has been advertising all the time recently and is said to be very popular was opened by one of your former students, right?"
When it came to business, Xiaoyun asked Tan Yuxin curiously.
Her husband Xiaojun also had a similar expression.
Qin Yuxin was a little surprised when she heard this. She glanced at her husband subconsciously and found that her husband's expression was also quite surprised.
"Yes! It was opened by a student in my former class. What's wrong?"
Qin Yuxin did not deny it, she was just not sure what the purpose of her niece and niece-in-law came to ask about this tonight.
Xiaoyun and Xiaojun looked at each other, their expressions were very happy, and the smiles on their faces became even bigger.
Xiaoyun: "Auntie, the boss of 99 Braised Chicken you just mentioned was a student in your class before? Have you ever been his counselor?"
Qin Yuxin was a little proud, smiled and nodded, "Well, yes! He is a student from the 2003 cooking class I taught, a very talented student!"
Tan Yuxin's husband, who had not planned to interrupt at first, suddenly interrupted when he heard this: "Haha, Xiaoyun! You really know how to inquire. I have often heard your aunt mention the boss of the company you asked about. He is her pride.
Disciple! Haha, to tell you the truth, she has been teaching and educating people for so many years, and I have never seen her care so much about any student before. That is a student she is really proud of!"
Tan Yuxin's eyes were full of smiles when she heard this, and she had no intention of refuting at all.
Xiaoyun and Xiaojun were even more surprised.
Xiaoyun: "That's right! That's great! If that's the case, then aunt... I'll just tell you!"
Qin Yuxin stretched out her hand and said, "Tell me! What's going on with this kid who is so polite to his aunt?"
Xiaoyun: "Auntie! It's like this. Xiaojun and I have often seen the advertisement of this 99-Yellow Braised Chicken recently, and we happened to hear that the owner of that company is my aunt who graduated from your school's cooking major. After asking about it later, it seems that it is you.
students, so..."
At this point, she smiled, glanced at her husband Xiaojun beside her, and said with a smile: "So, Xiaojun and I wanted to ask Auntie to help us tell the boss that we want to work in their company.
Franchise store, hehe, aunt, you must help us with this! Please, aunt!"
After listening to this, Qin Yuxin's husband laughed without saying a word and smoked leisurely.
The smile on Qin Yuxin's face did not change, and she seemed quite happy, "Okay! That's no problem. Anyway, his company has been recruiting franchisees. Even if you don't come to me and go directly to his company to talk about joining, it won't matter.
questionable."
"I know! I know! We all know this, but... Auntie, what Xiaojun and I want to do...hehe, it's not an ordinary franchise store. We want to invest more, so Auntie, I'm afraid this time
We really need you to help us talk about it!"
Qin Yuxin frowned, her expression a little confused, "It's not an ordinary franchise store? What do you mean Xiaoyun?"
Xiaoyun: "Hehe, aunt, we want to win the agency right of a city! To put it simply, if they agree to our conditions, their company will not be able to authorize other franchise stores in that city in the future. Within the scope of that city,
