Luo Yufeng’s eyes widened at the sight of Cheng Hao’s retreating figure, her mind still echoing with his recent words.
"The printing factory belongs to my dad, and I myself am also an owner of the Chili Sauce Factory, that is, the Good Mother Chili Sauce Factory. And also, Liunian hand cream, Liunian Perfume, they all come from my factory."
When Cheng Hao spoke, he did so casually, as if all he was describing was just another ordinary matter.
By the time Luo Yufeng came back to her senses, her lips were tightly bitten, and her eyes seemed almost ready to pop out of her head. She spat, "Pah, bragging, isn’t it? Anyone can do that."
As she spoke, Luo Yufeng hastened away, her heart growing more and more anxious. Why did she feel that what Cheng Hao said was true?
"Nianhua, let’s deliver this stuff later," Xu Nianji said as he stopped Xu Nianhua. "He needs some peace and quiet right now."
"If only the Zou Family had given more thought to Zou Yaru, their ending might have been different."
Xu Nianhua spoke with a sense of lament.
Xu Nianji looked deeply into her eyes and said, "That’s why they say, even your own parents can be selfish sometimes."
Xu Nianhua was stunned for a moment.
"Little sister, as long as you are happy and blessed, neither mom and dad nor we will end up like Zou Yaru’s parents." Xu Nianji gently patted her shoulder. His little sister had grown up; she was no longer that little girl who just trailed behind them.
If Pei Yicheng ever dared to wrong her, he would never let Pei Yicheng off the hook!
No one should think of bullying his little sister.
Xu Nianji’s eyes darkened as he thought about the Chili Sauce Factory. He felt that there was more he should do.
"Big brother, you’re the best!" Xu Nianhua cheerfully carried the items back and said, "Let’s hurry home. I already miss Mom and Dad."
"Alright," Xu Nianji got into the car, started it, and said, "Sit tight. Mom and Dad will be overjoyed to see you."
The thought of her parents made Xu Nianhua’s already eager heart to return home grow even more ardent.
At the Good Mother Chili Sauce Factory, Xu Nianji’s car stopped in front of the warehouse. Xu Nianji unloaded the empty bottles he had brought back, while Xu Nianhua headed straight for the office in the factory. Upon seeing Ji Ying busily at work, she sprinted over and hugged her mother, exclaiming, "Mom, I’m back!"
Ji Ying, hearing the familiar voice, thought she was hallucinating until she saw her daughter’s bright, sunny smile. Only then did she say, "Weren’t you supposed to return home tomorrow? You came back early and didn’t even tell me. How did you get here? Was everything okay on the way? Are you hungry?"
Ji Ying bombarded her with questions, each one filled with deep concern. She said, "You’ve lost weight, let Mom fatten you up properly."
"Mom, I’m perfectly fine. I actually feel like I’ve gained weight; how could I have lost any?" Xu Nianhua pinched her waist, feeling like she had gained some weight, not at all like what Ji Ying was suggesting!
"Gained weight where?" Ji Ying sized up her daughter’s slender waist and couldn’t help saying, "Look at you, your waist is so thin, I could almost wrap one hand around it."
That’s an exaggeration.
"Did you come back with your big brother?" Ji Ying had noticed Xu Nianji’s truck parked outside the warehouse. She asked, "Did you secretly tell your big brother and not me?"
"I didn’t." Xu Nianhua explained earnestly, knowing that calming an angry mother was not an easy task. She hurriedly added, "It was big brother, he knew I was coming back these days. After making a delivery, he went to the train station early in the morning, just in time to run into me."
"That’s more like it." Ji Ying gave a thumbs-up to her eldest son’s actions.
