Chapter 287: 101: Beat up the drowning dog, protect Yangyang!_4
Jia Lan had a great sense of self-respect, she could not afford to lose face in this way!
To each his own, Ni Chenggui wasn’t upset. He laughed and said, “What’s wrong with being a sole proprietor? The skin whitening and moisturizing cream you love to use was invented by a sole proprietor! Without them, would you have access to such great products?”
Jia Lan continued, “That’s different. I would never work for a sole proprietor.”
Ni Chenggui said, “The opportunity won’t come again once it’s gone. Are you sure you won’t reconsider?”
Jia Lan said, “No need to reconsider, even if I don’t care about face, our family’s Old Zhang does.”
Hearing this, Ni Chenggui seemed to recall something, and then asked, “Oh right, Xiaolan, did you ask your husband about that thing I asked you to check?”
Jia Lan replied, “I did, Old Zhang said he’ll check with his supervisor after school starts. The policies change every year, he can’t confirm right now whether they will accept transfer students in senior year.”
Jia Lan was a responsible person. Once she promised something to Ni Chenggui, she made sure to fulfil it thoroughly.
Ni Chenggui nodded, “You must take this matter seriously, our relative’s child is waiting to take the college entrance exam next year.”
“Sure.” Jia Lan continued, “Speaking of, how old is that child of your relatives this year? Are they old enough to take the exam? Boy or girl? Are they smart?”
“Eighteen.” Ni Chenggui continued, “It’s a girl. Let me tell you, there’s no smarter child around for miles.”
Jia Lan just thought Ni Chenggui was bragging and chuckled. “Rest assured, I’ve got this covered.”
…
Ni Yang didn’t go to the Noodle Restaurant or the Milk Tea Shop today, instead, she stayed home studying eye cream formulas.
The rose extract couldn’t be made in a short time, so she had to create a new product to prepare for the grand opening.
She planned to offer some promotional giveaways on the opening day.
This way, she could win people’s hearts and gain customers. Why not?
It took Ni Yang three whole days at home to invent an eye cream intended to lighten dark circles.
After she developed the product, as always, she first gave it to the people close to her to try before officially selling it.
Time flew by and half a month had passed, the opening day of the skincare shop was approaching.
On February 2, the day of the Dragon’s Head(erected).
On the day when her skincare shop, “Flawless Fair Skin,” opened, Ni Yang did not show up as the Boss, she left everything to Ni Chenggui.
Knowing that “Flawless Fair Skin” was opening on February 2, Zhou Hua came early in the morning.
She didn’t come empty-handed, she brought a gift.
Ni Yang had been so kind to her, she couldn’t afford to be stingy in return.
“Is Yangyang here?”
The three young girls in the store looked at each other, all puzzled.
They had never met Ni Yang, so they naturally didn’t know who Yangyang was.
Just then, Ni Chenggui came out from inside, “Hello, are you the Miss Zhou that Yangyang has mentioned?”
Ni Yang had told Ni Chenggui about Zhou Hua, being smart, Ni Chenggui knew that Zhou Hua had a unique position and could help Ni Yang in the future, she was not to be offended.
Zhou Hua nodded, “Yes, I am. And you are?”
Ni Chenggui said with a smile, “I am the Store Manager here, and also Yangyang’s aunt. Yangyang told me all about you this morning, how you’ve helped her out a lot. She said I have to thank you properly when I see you.”
Zhou Hua shyly replied, “Ah, Yangyang is too polite. I didn’t help her much at all. On the contrary, she helped me a lot. You have no idea how bad my skin used to be. Ever since I started using Yangyang’s skincare products, it’s like I’m back to being 18!”
With that, Zhou Hua handed the gift box in her hands to Ni Chenggui. “This is a business opening gift for Yangyang, I hope you’ll accept it.”
“Miss Zhou, you’re too kind! I will accept this on behalf of Yangyang, thank you!” As it was a business opening gift, she had no reason to refuse.
Zhou Hua’s intention was to deliver the gift. Now that her mission was accomplished, she excused herself, intending to go back to work. She said goodbye to Ni Chenggui and started to leave.
Ni Chenggui caught up with Zhou Hua and handed her a beautiful glass jar, “Miss Zhou, this is the eye cream that Yangyang newly developed, please take it and give it a try.”
What Ni Chenggui gave her was not a trial size but the fully packaged regular size.
