Reborn as a Rich Woman in the Eighties -
Chapter 642 - 641: The Suitable Candidate
Chapter 642: Chapter 641: The Suitable Candidate
Song Yinran actually wanted to take Luo Xinyan back with him, but he knew that was unrealistic.
Luo Yue had just given birth to their child, too small and vulnerable to endure the exhausting journey, and Yu Hongli, with only one son, would hardly agree to let the young couple go to the south.
Luo Xinyan smiled gently, "You don’t need to feel like you owe me anything. We’re already at this age, not young people who insist on sticking together every day. As long as you know that there’s a home here for you, and someone waiting for you, that’s enough!
Moreover, I have Lele with me. How could I possibly be lonely? Once Yueyue finishes her maternity leave and goes back to work, I’m definitely going to help take care of the child!
With such a precious treasure to keep me company, I won’t feel lonely at all!"
Song Yinran, moved, wrapped an arm around her shoulders, "Thank you! Xinyan! You are truly the best!"
How lucky he, Song Yinran, was to have met a woman he admired at an age when others know their destiny, and for both of them to have successfully come together.
Luo Xinyan was still just as tolerant and considerate, supporting all his decisions. He was truly overwhelmed with gratitude.
He was determined to interfere with his daughter’s love affair this time!
He couldn’t let his daughter waste her life away anymore...
When Lin Xia and the others arrived at Jiang Mingyuan’s restaurant, Sheng Yijin and Ma Hao were sitting near the bar in the main hall, with a small pile of melon seed shells in front of them.
Lin Chun didn’t see Jiang Mingqing’s figure and couldn’t help but feel a bit disappointed.
But she thought it was better not to see him; that way, he wouldn’t have any concerns about her when he left!
Ma Hao stood up and jokingly teased, "Lin Xia! It took you guys way too long to get ready at home! Yijin and I have been eating melon seeds until our mouths are dry!"
Sheng Yijin immediately declared, "That was you! I didn’t eat any!"
Ma Hao glanced at him, "Look at you! If you didn’t eat, you didn’t. What’s the big deal?"
Lin Xia always had a good impression of Ma Hao and Sheng Yijin. When she and Lin Dong went back to deliver a sweater to her godmother, they encountered Lin Qiang and a hooligan attacking them.
Fortunately, Ma Hao and Sheng Yijin intervened, pretending to be police officers and scared those boys away!
Later, when she set up her store, Sheng Yijin helped her with the procedures quite a bit.
"Brother Ma! Brother Sheng! Sorry for making you wait! We went back to see the elderly! We just got back too!"
Ma Hao suddenly realized, "Ah! No wonder! I was wondering why it took so long!"
Song Zhiya watched them talking and laughing so intimately and naturally, and subconsciously pursed her lips.
When she helped out in the store, Ma Hao and Sheng Yijin had visited, and they both knew she was Jiang Mingyuan’s girlfriend.
But their conversations were never this uninhibited; instead, they seemed somewhat constrained and distant.
Jiang Mingyuan teased Ma Hao, "Then you’re the silly one! Eating melon seeds without ever thinking to drink some tea!"
Ma Hao casually threw the melon seeds in his hand at Jiang Mingyuan, "Oh, shut it! You’re the silly one! Drinking too much tea, how are you going to fit in any alcohol later?"
"Enough messing around!" Jiang Mingyuan brushed the melon seeds off his arm, "Let’s go to the private room and eat!"
Once the dishes were served one after another, the table couldn’t avoid the clinking of glasses.
Lin Chun and Sheng Yijin sat next to each other, occasionally toasting and drinking.
Sheng Yijin was warm and polite to Lin Chun, but she always felt a bit strange in her heart, after all, Sheng Yijin was the person Jiang Mingqing had secretly longed for!
Lin Xia, Lin Qiu, and Lin Dong’s glasses were filled with soda, but Song Zhiya poured herself some baijiu, seemingly drinking on her own.
Ma Hao and Jiang Mingyuan sat together, whispering and chatting intimately.
Jiang Mingyuan deliberately told him about Lin Xia’s shop not being transferred out, "...you had that in mind, didn’t you? Taking over could be profitable!"
He understood that Lin Xia would not transfer the shop to Song Zhiya, nor would she ever transfer it to him again!
So he immediately started looking for new buyers for her.
Ma Hao’s eyes flickered with ideas for a moment, "I’ll think about it!"
By the time Lin Xia and Lin Qiu went to the bathroom, Ma Hao also left the private room a little while later.
When Lin Xia and Lin Qiu came back, they ran into Ma Hao, who was leaning on the railing and smoking, at the staircase.
Ma Hao smiled at Lin Xia, "Lin Xia! Brother Ma would like to have a chat with you!"
"Sure! Then Xiaoqiu, you go ahead," Lin Xia had no idea what Ma Hao wanted to talk about and sent Lin Qiu away directly.
After Lin Qiu left, Ma Hao got straight to the point, "Sister, I heard from your second brother that the shop hasn’t been transferred yet?"
Lin Xia shook her head with a smile, "No, it hasn’t!"
A bigger smile appeared on Ma Hao’s face, "Actually, I’m quite interested in your shop. Originally, when your second brother told me he was going to take over, I let go of the thought!
But now that you haven’t transferred it, why not transfer it to me, what do you think?"
Lin Xia looked at him in surprise; she really hadn’t considered that Ma Hao would have this in mind.
But upon further thought, it made sense. Since returning from Ji City, Ma Hao had only been clocking in at his original unit without engaging in any business.
Her cosmetics store could start making money immediately upon taking over, so it was normal for him to want to take it over upon hearing that it hadn’t been transferred.
She pondered for a while. Her original plan was to send off her eldest brothers and then come back to slowly find a suitable buyer to transfer the shop to.
She had already decided not to transfer it to Song Zhiya, and of course, she couldn’t transfer it to Jiang Mingyuan!
Because that would only exacerbate the conflict between Song Zhiya and Jiang Mingyuan!
Now that Ma Hao suddenly showed up, he seemed like a suitable candidate.
In her heart, Lin Xia was truly grateful to Jiang Mingyuan. She smiled slightly, "Brother Ma! Of course, that’s possible, but my shop’s total value, including the premises and goods, is not a small sum!"
She had spent thousands initially on the property and then undertook a simple renovation, installed doors and windows, and added some shelves and countertops.
Not to mention the variety of goods she had accumulated over the years, which would certainly add up to a significant amount when inventoried.
Ma Hao frowned for a moment, but then his expression relaxed, "Money is not a problem. If it’s not enough, I can always ask relatives and friends to pitch in!"
Lin Xia couldn’t help but curl her lips into a smile, "That works!" She paused, "However, Brother Ma, my shop is closed at the moment! I’ll have to come back before I can handle the transfer with you!"
Ever since the day the inventory failed, her shop had been closed.
Because she didn’t want to bother Jiang Mingyuan anymore, she planned to keep it closed until she returned.
Ma Hao laughed heartily, "No worries, take care of your things. I’m not in a hurry anyway!
When you come back, just let your second brother know!
Let him call my unit and contact me, and I’ll come to the city!"
"Alright!" Lin Xia was very happy; she hadn’t expected to find a suitable buyer just by coming out for a meal.
Ma Hao didn’t immediately move from his spot. His eyes showed gratitude, "Sister! You’re aware that I went to my relatives to grow Clivia. I’m grateful for your reminder, which saved me from a total loss.
Because of this, Brother Ma has yet to formally thank you properly!"
