The Gu Family’s story did not involve Ji Shuyuan anymore, and he would not get involved again.
Ji Shuyuan just wanted to peacefully run his small business, then get a house of his own, ensure his grandfather had a good life, and also, be a good lawyer.
Days passed like flowing water, and in the blink of an eye, it turned into the verdant month of April.
"Brother, we really made money."
Even after counting the money three times, Cai Shuxue still felt overwhelmed.
"Of course we made money, otherwise, what do you think, where did this money come from?" Ji Shuqin grinned, knowing he had taken the right path.
Selling radios was indeed a lucrative business.
Since last time they stocked up in Yangcheng, except for the stock that went to Xu Nian’an, they sold out everything else and made a good sum, continuing to restock from the factory, and after several more rounds, they made even more money. Meanwhile, they also built trust with the manufacturers. When they sent payment to Yangcheng’s factories, the goods were shipped to them.
The brothers no longer had to travel back and forth for purchasing like before, saving a considerable amount on transportation and travel costs.
"Brother, I feel uneasy somehow," Cai Shuxue said, even though he had counted the money several times, it still felt surreal.
"What’s there to feel uneasy about, this is the money we earned ourselves, fair and square," Ji Shuqin was more relaxed, as he had earned the money with his own skills, fair and square.
Ji Shuqin patted his shoulder and said, "Shuxue, find a woman who is better than Jiang Mengyu and make her regret it."
Cai Shuxue gazed at the money, which was more than he had made in the previous year combined. He was happy at heart. When Ji Shuqin mentioned Jiang Mengyu, he couldn’t help but think of the days before their family troubles started when Jiang Mengyu would shyly and lovingly meet him.
But, ever since his family faced troubles, Jiang Mengyu seemed to have changed her face.
"Shuxue, your big brother will help you," Ji Shuqin comforted.
"Brother, I’m fine, she and I weren’t destined to be," Cai Shuxue murmured, "Luckily, we didn’t get married."
If they had married and had children, that would have been a real dilemma.
"Well done, worthy of being my little brother," Ji Shuqin happily said, shifting the topic, "Tonight, Nian’an is inviting us to dinner, how about it, do we go?"
"Of course," Cai Shuxue answered without hesitation, "Brother, should we buy something to bring?"
"Hmm..." Ji Shuqin elongated his tone, saying, "I’ll take Jiajia along, Nianhua will definitely be happy."
Ever since their last meeting, Jiajia had constantly talked about her aunt and grown especially close to Xu Nianhua, who genuinely liked Jiajia. The aunt and niece did not seem like strangers at all.
He meant for his brother to buy something, why bring his daughter along?
Cai Shuxue pursed his lips, yet decided to think for himself.
When Ji Shuqin and his brothers arrived at the place with Ji Jiajia, Ji Shuqin realized that the dinner included not only Xu Nian’an and Xu Nianhua siblings but also Xu Nianhua’s dormitory roommates.
Fei Jiayi, Zhou Wanwan, Ding Guo, Liao Jinling, and Chang Hui, five girls with different appearances, were selecting items in the store when Ji Shuqin brothers thought they were customers, only to find out later that they were all Xu Nianhua’s classmates.
Ji Shuqin, struck by an idea, quietly said to Cai Shuxue, "Shuxue, be proactive, see if there’s anyone you like."
Cai Shuxue: Is this like picking vegetables in the market, choosing freely?
