Lian Beichuan's trip was actually a plan that had been decided at the beginning of the year.
I was delayed for several months because of the temporary election for the president of Luancheng Chamber of Commerce.
After taking the position of president, he dealt with many difficult matters one after another.
It was not until this time that he successfully held the Chamber of Commerce Association that he finally freed up his hands to take care of Lian's own affairs.
Lian Beichuan wants to purchase a batch of advanced machines for Lian to improve the processing methods of flour, soybeans and other food crops.
The replacement of manual labor by machines is an inevitable trend of this era.
He had to seize this opportunity so that the Lian family would always be at the forefront of Luancheng's business.
Therefore, he needs to travel to many places, conduct on-site inspections, and compare products to choose the best one.
But Lian Beichuan has become tardy before going out, and every day he is late, he always finds excuses for himself.
Huo Jie knew in his heart that the young master couldn't let go of the person from the Lion Wake Tea House.
In the past, I was only worried about her safety, but now it is different.
That woman Gu Qingdai is being missed by several men.
Although Lian Beichuan would not admit it, Huo Jie, as a bystander, saw it clearly.
Huo Jie packed Lian Beichuan's briefcase again. After hesitating for a long time, he finally said, "How about I not accompany the second master this time?"
"What's wrong?" Lian Beichuan was slightly surprised.
"Brother Li Yuan is far superior to me when it comes to business matters. Why don't you ask him to accompany you?"
Cheng Liyuan's ability is indeed superior to Huo Jie's, but over the years, Lian Beichuan has become accustomed to using Huo Jie.
"The master has always wanted the third master to go into the business to gain experience, why not take this opportunity and let me take care of him myself?"
Huo Jie didn't mention Gu Qingdai a word, but Lian Beichuan already understood his intention.
"That's a good idea. With you watching her, I won't have anything to worry about." Even Beichuan suddenly became enlightened and the expression on his face was no longer gloomy.
Huo Jie deliberately interrupted: "I will take good care of the third master for the second master."
Lian Beichuan raised his star eyes slightly, smiled knowingly, and did not refute.
"The business is running smoothly at the moment, and there are cousins Rongchuan and Pingchuan taking care of it together. The second master can just go outside and use his skills without worries."
Lian Beichuan finally set out on his journey. He planned his days and planned to return to Luancheng by the time the Lion Dance Tea House would be reopened.
At first, he only thought that Gu Qingdai was just making a fuss, but after seeing her step by step in the past few months, he realized that he had really underestimated her.
He remembered Cheng Liyuan's praise after meeting Gu Qingdai. Once a beauty has wisdom, it is a very troublesome thing.
Gu Qingdai really gave him a headache!
Gu Qingdai only found out that Lian Beichuan had traveled far away when she went to visit Xu Xuannian.
She suddenly felt light and no longer had to worry about Lian Beichuan popping up from time to time and disturbing her life.
"I came here today to ask Mr. Xu for a calligraphy." Gu Qingdai bowed to Xu Xuannian in an upright manner.
Xu Xuannian was eating pastries that Gu Qingdai bought from the Zhu Family Time-honored Brand, "I really can't take advantage of you, girl. After just a few bites of pastries, I was tricked again."
Gu Qingdai served him a cup of tea and said, "Mr. Xu, I'll leave it to you."
"I haven't even made a penny from you, but I've gone out a lot. Which one of us is working for whom?"
After Xu Xuannian drank tea, he got up and came to the desk.
The pen, ink, paper and inkstone were all ready-made. He dipped the pen in the ink and asked Gu Qingdai, "Tell me, what words do you want to write?"
"Wake up, lion, tea, floor." Gu Qingdai said every word.
Xu Xuannian suddenly burst out laughing, his writing moved like dragons and snakes, and his movements were smooth and flowing in one go.
"You are ambitious. If you convert your house into a building, your business will definitely grow bigger and bigger."
Gu Qingdai also smiled happily, "Thanks to Mr. Xu, I will ask the plaque master to do it tomorrow."
The old man and the young man were just talking and joking, and they didn't notice that Xu Qiuxia had walked into the tea room.
When Gu Qingdai saw the worry on her face, she knew it was because of the Lu family's affairs.
The two of them had a tacit agreement not to say anything in front of Xu Xuannian. After coaxing the old man, Xu Qiuxia called Gu Qingdai into her room.
"Tell the truth to Aunt Qiu, what's going on?" Xu Qiuxia asked earnestly.
Gu Qingdai was stunned, "Didn't Mrs. Lu tell you anything?"
"Mrs. Lu just said that after attending the sorority party that day, Lu Minglan burst into tears when she went home. She said that if she didn't learn those foreign piano lessons, she would no longer need you to accompany her."
Hearing this, Gu Qingdai finally told Xu Qiuxia the cause and effect of that night.
"If I had fallen out with Song Yueting directly, nothing would have happened later."
"Then who is Song Yueting? Not to mention that you can't afford to offend him, even the Lu family doesn't dare to do anything to him." Xu Qiuxia still favored Gu Qingdai.
She was touched, "But no matter what, it was me who stole Lu Minglan's limelight. It's inevitable that she hates me."
"Young girls love to be honest. When will they understand that those vain things are of no use."
Gu Qingdai couldn't figure it out either, so she just laughed helplessly.
"Then without this job, wouldn't you be even more short of money on hand?"
"There isn't much money left. Don't worry, Aunt Qiu, my teahouse will reopen soon."
"I'm waiting for that day and will send you two big flower baskets."
Gu Qingdai only feels that Xu Xuannian and Xu Qiuxia are her nobles, and she must not disappoint them!
It was already dark when she returned to the Awakening Lion Tea House, and Gu Qingdai felt that the days were getting colder and shorter day by day.
They grow in spring and grow in summer, and they harvest in autumn and store in winter.
Except for her and Lian Beichuan, who could remember that a man named Li Zheng had been in this teahouse.
A black car parked in front of the teahouse. Gu Qingdai's heart trembled. Didn't Lian Beichuan go on a long trip?
Who else could it be besides him?
She hurriedly walked into the teahouse, only to see Huo Jie standing behind Lian Yuchuan, and the two of them were "inspecting" the decorations.
"What brought Mr. Lian here? The teahouse hasn't reopened yet, so you can't get tea today."
"Why did Shopkeeper Gu just come back? I've been here for a while." Lian Yuchuan walked back to Qingdai, showing a caring gesture.
Huo Jie followed him and bowed slightly to Gu Qingdai.
"I still have to report to Mr. Lian where I am going?"
"I'm not worried about Shopkeeper Gu's safety. At least I have someone by my side, so it's convenient to go wherever I can to do things."
"Compared to a wealthy family like you, you can do things yourself without bothering others."
Gu Qingdai felt that Lian Yuchuan had nothing serious to do, he just ran to the Lion Awakening Tea House for a walk.
She deliberately said to Gu Qingsong who was accompanying her: "From now on, don't let anyone put anything in the teahouse. If any piece of wood is not strong, it will fall and hit someone!"
Gu Qingsong raised his head and pretended not to hear, but kept muttering in his heart. It was not enough to offend the second master Lian, but he also had to offend the third master Lian as well?
His sister's mind is somehow wrong, and she always has trouble with the Lian family.
Huo Jie walked to Gu Qingdai quietly and said, "Second Master received a letter yesterday."
"What does it have to do with me?" Gu Qingdai asked.
Huo Jie forced a smile in embarrassment, "I blame me for being abrupt. I just passed by the teahouse and wanted to tell shopkeeper Gu the news."
Gu Qingdai looked at Huo Jie with bright eyes, thinking that he could tell some great news.
Huo Jie said that Lian Beichuan had been shot. This chapter has been completed!
