The whole family sat down and started to have their breakfast. At the dining table, Wang Yunmei looked at Jian Yu and wanted to say something. Jian Ai knew that her mother hadn’t told her brother about her becoming the general manager of Yaochi Club.
Jian Yu noticed his mother’s abnormality. He frowned and asked, “Mom, do you have something to say?”
“It’s just…” Wang Yunmei didn’t know what to say. To be more precise, she still hadn’t reacted yet. She didn’t even know if this general manager was something good or bad for her.
In any case, she had promised her two children to resign yesterday. In the end, not only did she not leave the nightclub, but she was even promoted to the position of general manager.
Seeing that her mother couldn’t open her mouth, Jian Ai helplessly said, “Yesterday, Mom went to Yaochi to resign. Due to some unexpected circumstances, Mom became Yaochi’s new general manager.”
“What?” Jian Yu’s handsome face was full of surprise. It was obvious that he didn’t have time to react. In the end, he laughed. “Don’t joke around. How is that possible? Yaochi is the Ji Group’s nightclub. How can our mother be the general manager?”
Jian Ai sighed. Not to mention her brother, but even she had not recovered yet.
Seeing the expressions on her mother’s and sister’s faces, Jian Yu’s smile froze on his face. After a while, he carefully looked at Wang Yunmei and asked, “Mom, don’t tell me this is real?”
His sister said that his mother became the general manager of Yaochi because of some unforeseen circumstances? What kind of unforeseen circumstances would cause such a thing to happen?
Wang Yunmei nodded slightly and looked at Jian Yu. “Mom knows that this is a bit ridiculous, but Young Master Ji said it at that time, so I had no choice.”
“Young Master Ji?” Jian Yu was startled and immediately asked, “The Young Master of Ji Group, Ji Haoyu?”
“Brother, it’s a done deal. Mom signed the contract yesterday,” Jian Ai took a sip of soy milk and said.
Jian Yu couldn’t digest this news for a long time. It wasn’t because he felt that the position of a general manager at Yaochi wasn’t good, but because his mother becoming the general manager was unbelievable. What kind of attitude did Ji Haoyu have when he handed this position to his mother?
“Oh, Xiao Ai is here too?”
Just as they were talking, a tall figure pushed open the door and entered.
The visitor was dressed plainly. He was tall and burly and looked to be in his forties. He had a crew cut and a clean beard.
“Uncle Wu is here!”
Jian Ai and Jian Yu stood up at the same time. Jian Yu turned around and moved a stool in front of Wu Shaoqi. “Uncle Wu, please sit.”
“Uncle Wu, you haven’t eaten yet, right? I’ll get you a pair of chopsticks.”
Jian Ai was about to enter the kitchen when Wu Shaoqi stopped her. “Xiao Ai, don’t be busy. Uncle Wu already ate. Sit down and eat.”
“Liangzi said earlier that you were looking for me for something?” Wang Yunmei was very familiar with Wu Shaoqi, so she did not waste any time on pleasantries and asked directly, “What is it?”
Jian Yu and Jian Ai also stopped eating and looked up at Wu Shaoqi.
Wu Shaoqi first took a look at the stall. When he saw that there were no other customers, he lowered his voice and said, “I received news yesterday that our South City District is going to be demolished!”
“Ah? Demolished?” Wang Yunmei’s eyes widened in shock.
Wu Shaoqi nodded. “Director Yang of the City Planning Bureau is a regular customer of my shop. He often drives to South City early in the morning to buy my tofu. Yesterday, he came to tell me secretly that our South City District has been listed as a priority for rebuilding.”
