This night, Qin Chuan slept restlessly.
He was in a dazed, semi-asleep state the entire time.
He also had many nightmares where Li Ya and Teacher Yang left him, found new boyfriends, and he was left all alone like a hurt, abandoned puppy.
When he opened his eyes, Li Ya had already prepared breakfast.
Qin Chuan sat at the dining table, eating breakfast.
"Why are you eating so little today?"
Li Ya noticed that Qin Chuan only ate half a fried pancake, one egg, and a bowl of millet porridge before stopping, and couldn't help but ask.
"I'm not very hungry."
Qin Chuan said, "Sister, when does your factory start work?"
"It's today!"
Li Ya replied, "After I finish breakfast, I need to hurry to the clothing factory. Starting today, the holiday is over, and we all have to work hard to welcome the new year."
"Let's cheer on and work hard together to make a lot of money this year."
Today was already the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, and many factories were scheduled to reopen today. For the electronics factory, Li Chunsheng, Xu Ronghua, and many other key elites from out of town would also choose to return to work today.
"Let's cheer on together!"
Qin Chuan smiled and made a gesture of encouragement.
After breakfast, they both drove their respective cars to their factories. However, halfway there, Qin Chuan turned his car and headed in a different direction.
When he arrived at the hotel room door with breakfast, he knocked. Teacher Yang had already woken up and was washing her face.
"I thought you forgot about me and had already gone to work!"
Seeing the hearty breakfast in Qin Chuan's hand, Teacher Yang was as happy as a child.
"How could that be?"
"Even if I forget everyone else, I could never forget my precious!"
Qin Chuan placed the breakfast on the table. After Teacher Yang washed her face, she immediately leaned in, took a deep breath with an intoxicated expression, "It smells so good! So many varieties, there are xiaolongbao, flatbread, wontons, tofu pudding, seaweed egg drop soup... Have you eaten?"
"Of course not!"
Qin Chuan brought over a stool and sat down, "I'm waiting for you to eat together!"
Teacher Yang's eyes turned into crescent moons, and she grinned, giving him a thumbs up, "You can be taught, keep up this excellent tradition of virtue in the future."
While chatting and laughing, the two of them finished their breakfast.
"Go! Go! Go!"
"Today, I'm going to visit your electronics factory!"
Teacher Yang excitedly put on her coat. Qin Chuan's mouth twitched slightly; what was coming had to come.
The real estate and decoration companies were almost all people they knew since they hadn't started work yet. Even if Teacher Yang's true identity was revealed, no one would gossip.
But Xinhua Electronics Factory was different. It was a place with many people and various rumors. Everyone knew that Qin Chuan's girlfriend was the most beautiful factory director of Hu Die Clothing Factory.
If he brought Teacher Yang with him, given her stunning beauty, she would undoubtedly attract everyone's attention the moment she appeared.
Especially since Qin Chuan couldn't predict what kind of intimate actions Teacher Yang might take towards him. Once she did, it would become the biggest news.
At that time, the fun would be immense!
All previous efforts would likely turn into bubbles and would definitely reach Li Ya's ears.
Fortunately, he had already made arrangements, hoping that people's attention wouldn't be too focused on Teacher Yang.
"Let's not rush to the electronics factory yet!"
Qin Chuan stopped Teacher Yang from putting on her coat and explained, "Let's wait a bit longer. Many franchisees are coming to visit today. Judging by the time, they should be here soon!"
"Let's wait for them, and then we can go together."
Upon hearing that they were important clients, Teacher Yang immediately stopped putting on her coat, without any suspicion.
Qin Chuan also finally breathed a sigh of relief. Yesterday, he had actually anticipated that Teacher Yang would visit Xinhua Electronics Factory today.
In the afternoon, he contacted Liu Dongqiang, who was in Beijing, and asked him to bring people over quickly, otherwise, the first decoration store might fall through.
Before the Lunar New Year, Liu Dongqiang had said he wanted to visit, but he was too busy during the holiday season, so he didn't come.
Now was the perfect time to use him.
Additionally, the electronics factory staff reported that several customers who had called had arranged to visit the products today.
With so many people gathered, if Qin Chuan brought Zheng Chengdao and a few others to help, Teacher Yang would likely not attract too much attention, and suspicion would be greatly reduced.
Around 9 AM, Qin Chuan received a call from Ye Meiyun, who informed him that clients had arrived and asked if he, the boss, wanted to go to greet them.
Qin Chuan said it was unnecessary; as the chairman, the highest boss, he didn't need to do everything himself.
Around 10 AM, Liu Dongqiang called, saying he had entered Yongnan County. Qin Chuan's spirits lifted.
Shortly after, another call came in, it was from Shang Honglian.
Shang Honglian excitedly said on the phone that she also wanted to go pick up Liu Dongqiang, as he was her boss, and it was only right to greet him when he came to Yongnan County.
Qin Chuan smiled and said it was no problem, and he would pick her up shortly.
"Xiao Mo, let's go, let's go pick up our clients together!"
"Today, you are not my girlfriend, but you will become one of those franchisees, joining the group to listen to our professional explanation."
Qin Chuan tidied his messy clothes in front of the mirror, and Yang Zimo quickly tidied herself up, her expression coquettish, clearly having been taken advantage of and teased by some scoundrel again.
"Okay, then I'll play the role of your guest today!"
Teacher Yang treated this as a small game between lovers and agreed with a smile.
The two left the hotel and drove first to Shang Bingrong's house, where Shang Honglian had been waiting expectantly for a long time.
"Brother Qin Chuan!"
Seeing Qin Chuan's car arrive, Shang Honglian waved happily, exuding a youthful and lively aura under the sunlight, bright and captivating.
Shang Bingrong and his wife stood beside her, both with radiant smiles.
Qin Chuan got out of the car and greeted them, "Uncle Shang, Sister-in-law, Happy New Year!"
"Xiao Chuan, Happy New Year!"
Shang Bingrong and his wife greeted him warmly.
"I heard your electronics factory has already started work."
"Yes, I can't help it. I'm destined to be a workaholic my whole life, even my holidays are much shorter than others, alas!"
Qin Chuan sighed.
"You mustn't say that. Starting a business is indeed hard, but you gain a lot too. Your reputation in our county is now greater than many people's..."
Shang Bingrong said.
"Brother Qin Chuan, hurry up and get in the car, don't waste time with my parents!"
"Boss Liu is already on his way, we can't keep him waiting too long!"
Shang Honglian, who had already opened the car door, urged.
"This troublesome girl..."
Shang Bingrong and his wife were helpless with their daughter.
"Qin Chuan, after Boss Liu finishes with you, we'll host a simple dinner tonight for everyone to get together!"
"No problem, then we'll be going!"
Qin Chuan started the car and quickly drove away.
"Oh, Brother Qin Chuan, why is there a beautiful woman in your car?"
Shang Honglian noticed Yang Zimo sitting in the passenger seat and couldn't help but exclaim.
