Chapter 606

Seeing in a New Light

Whenever there was something to be done, just mentioning it was enough—he never questioned the outcome or the reason, only making sure to handle it well...

Who wouldn’t like such a younger brother?

"Sister-in-law, you’re back?" Just as Zhang Xiaofeng was lost in thought, a cheerful voice rang out. She turned to see Lu Ming returning with Su Jin.

Lin Nannan held Lu Dudu’s hand and gestured to him, then turned her gaze to the girl beside him. Dressed in navy blue clothing, the young girl had an unspoken elegance about her, clearly the result of a refined upbringing.

Su Jin, feeling a bit shy under her gaze, stepped forward to greet Lin Nannan. "Hello, sister-in-law! I’m Su Jin!"

"Hello!" Lin Nannan smiled warmly at her.

"Don’t block the doorway—come on in!" Lu Ming noticed they were standing awkwardly and quickly urged them inside.

Zhang Xiaofeng quickly responded and laughed, "Come in and sit down!"

As she spoke, she pushed Lu Dudu’s stroller further inside to avoid blocking the way.

Now that her mother was back, Lu Dudu paid no attention to her stroller, instead wrapping her arms around her mother’s neck and looking left and right excitedly, grinning from ear to ear, making it clear how delighted she was.

Su Jin couldn’t help but be drawn to her, reaching out to play with the little girl. Lu Dudu responded with a wide, happy grin...

Lin Nannan let them play, noticing how Lu Ming hovered around Su Jin. If he had a tail, she suspected he’d be wagging it...

"A Ming," she called out, letting Su Jin hold Lu Dudu, and turning to Lu Ming, whose eyes were fixed on Su Jin. When he turned to look at her, she asked directly, "What are your thoughts on that stroller?"

Lu Ming’s gaze shifted to the stroller beside them. After a moment of thought, he said, "Sister-in-law, can we reduce the cost of producing this?"

Lin Nannan was surprised—she hadn’t expected him to think about that.

Perhaps her astonishment was too obvious, or maybe because Su Jin was there, Lu Ming felt the need to explain, "It wasn’t my idea—A Jin brought it up. She said what you made for Du Du is extremely expensive, something most people can’t afford. I was thinking that if the materials can’t be changed, the price would be an obstacle."

No one had mentioned this to Lin Nannan before, so she turned to Su Jin and asked, "Do you understand these things?"

Su Jin replied a bit shyly, "Not really, but I can tell at a glance that these materials are quite valuable. The design, materials, stability—even the wheels—are all of exceptionally good quality, so I know the cost must be high."

She didn’t mention that some of the materials were ones she’d never seen before, which only emphasized their uniqueness.

Lu Ming hadn’t gone into detail about Lin Nannan’s background, but he had hinted enough for Su Jin to understand. Especially when he mentioned that his older brother, now a regimental commander, was stationed here to keep watch. The Lu family remained tight-lipped about Lin Nannan’s identity and work, and Su Jin wasn’t foolish—she sensed something unusual and realized Lin Nannan’s work was likely confidential. This only reinforced her belief that the items Lin Nannan made for Lu Dudu were anything but ordinary.

"Quite impressive," Lin Nannan remarked, knowing Su Jin’s conclusions were mostly speculation. Still, the fact that she could deduce so much from so little was remarkable.

"Mainly because my family is in business—I’ve picked up a thing or two from being around it," Su Jin explained humbly. Then she added, "Sister-in-law, if we can change the materials and lower the cost, this could be a great business opportunity. I can ask my older brother to handle it—build up its reputation first, so both our families can benefit."
