Chatting and Laughing
"Hah!" Lin Nannan couldn't help but laugh out loud, while Su Jin received a wounded look from Lu Ming...
This laughter and this gaze seemed quite amusing.
Lin Nannan felt that Su Jin had Lu Ming completely under her control—things are sure to get interesting from now on.
With Su Jin around, Lin Nannan felt even more reassured about entrusting this matter to Lu Ming.
Seizing the chance, Lin Nannan also chatted extensively with Su Jin about setting up the factory, shares, materials, and more. The two women went back and forth, not in a tug-of-war for their own interests, but rather ensuring each received necessary benefits, leaving Lu Ming unable to get a word in edgewise.
He was afraid that if he spoke up, both would glare at him angrily.
"Don't worry, I believe you two won't have time to manage those details," Su Jin said with a smile after settling the shares.
Lin Nannan was taken aback, feeling that the young woman was just too clever.
"It's only because you're here that I feel so reassured!" Lin Nannan said, casting a somewhat disdainful look at Lu Ming.
Before making any comparisons, she had thought Lu Ming was quite good. But with Su Jin as a contrast, she found him utterly unsatisfactory—this foolish, simple-minded guy would surely be eaten alive if he went out to negotiate business.
"Then I'll thank you in advance, sister-in-law!" Su Jin replied gracefully with a smile, then frowned as she remembered something. "It's just that the issue with the materials might not be easily resolved anytime soon."
"Then start with the expensive ones first!" Lin Nannan said decisively. "As for the other materials, I'll find a way. But for now, let's focus on finding a location to set up the factory. I'll provide some molds, and the rest will be up to you."
Su Jin nodded. "Don't worry, we've finished up at school. Leave the rest to us."
Lu Ming, who had been listening nearby, asked, "Aren't you going back?"
"Who said I'm not going back? Sister-in-law entrusted us with selecting the factory location. We can choose a suitable one—it doesn't have to be here, and actually, this place isn't suitable," Su Jin explained.
"Why isn't it suitable? The people here are hardworking and diligent—they'd definitely be willing!" Lu Ming retorted.
Su Jin patiently replied, "This place is too out of the way. It makes transportation difficult!"
As for other reasons, she didn't elaborate.
Lu Ming scratched his head, realizing that this issue wouldn't be easily resolved in the short term.
"Get out and explore more—you'll learn a lot!" Lin Nannan encouraged, patting Lu Ming on the shoulder.
This time, she didn't mock Lu Ming for his lack of understanding. In truth, if it weren't for her sharp instincts, she wouldn't understand the ways of business either. So, she had no right to ridicule Lu Ming, who had never been exposed to these things.
As for Su Jin, her extensive knowledge, broad experience, and solid foundation were largely due to her background.
Background doesn't determine everything, but vision does. Lu Ming had a lot to learn, and having Su Jin by his side would save him from many detours—which was precisely why Lin Nannan thought Lu Ming was so lucky.
Lu Ming, reflecting on the lively conversation between the two women and his inability to contribute, realized he truly had many shortcomings. So he nodded firmly and promised, "Don't worry, sister-in-law. I will definitely work hard!"
With the serious matters settled, the rest was casual conversation.
Su Jin found Lin Nannan quite easy to get along with. As they chatted, she unintentionally revealed the story of how they met, letting Lin Nannan know that Su Jin was the young woman Lu Hang had mentioned before—the one who had helped them.
At this thought, her gaze toward Su Jin changed entirely.
Kind and clever—if a woman like this slipped away, it would truly be Lu Ming's loss... He might never find anyone better. So, she began thinking about how to help the no-longer-young Lu Ming settle down.
