"Yes, I just got back from the capital. I'll go to the clothing factory to handle some things, and then we can go eat, watch a movie, and take a walk, okay?"
"Great, great! I'll wait for you at the clothing factory!"
Lin Shu's tone was full of excitement.
"Okay, see you soon."
"Mhm."
Hanging up the phone, Lin Shu gleefully rushed back to her room, saying:
"Mom, you don't need to make dinner for me tonight. You and Dad eat. I'll have Uncle Xu drive me over."
Uncle Xu was their family driver.
"Got it, got it. You, slow down, honestly."
Zheng Rou shook her head repeatedly, feeling very speechless.
Their family could naturally afford a housekeeper, but only for cleaning.
Zheng Rou personally took care of all three meals a day, creating a more homely atmosphere.
Perhaps because of this, while friends in the same social class had all divorced, the couple remained very loving.
Lin Shu quickly changed her clothes and rushed out, leaving Zheng Rou sighing repeatedly:
"This girl is truly lost. One phone call from him, and you're this happy!"
"If later, that kid Wang Yi tells you to go get married, will you have to go downstairs and set off fireworks?"
"That rascal, what kind of things is he doing!"
"A grown daughter cannot be held back. Isn't it too late to have another child now?"
"Alas!"
Zheng Rou casually picked up yesterday's newspaper, her brows slightly furrowed:
"A second-tier university student who 'snuck into' a 985 university in the capital, Student Wang, Meiyou's Boss Wang... Hiss! Could this be that kid Wang Yi?"
"No way? Didn't he just start his business? How could it have gotten so big? And even made it to the front-page headline of the Jizhou Evening News?"
For a moment, Zheng Rou's expression became quite amusing.
On the other side, Wang Yi made another call to Wei Ming:
"Manager Wei, tell the employees whose wages Yin Zhixing withheld not to leave after work yet. Please wait for me a moment; I'll distribute their hard-earned money that he owed!"
"Okay, Boss, thank you!"
Wei Ming was deeply moved.
He didn't expect the money to come so quickly!
He thought it would take at least two months, or even half a year.
After all, it was owed by the previous boss.
Even if Wang Yi dragged his feet and didn't deal with it, they would have no recourse.
Liangcai Clothing Factory offered such good treatment, with daily wage settlements.
Garment workers would desperately want to join!
He didn't expect it in just 20 days!
Boss Wang is truly a great guy!
"It's what I should do."
Half an hour later, when Wang Yi arrived at Liangcai Clothing Factory, Lin Shu was already waiting at the entrance.
As soon as he got out of the car, Lin Shu walked over, first glaring at Wang Yi, as if reproaching him:
"Next time, you're not allowed to be away from me for so long!"
"Long? Was it a week?"
Wang Yi was taken aback.
When he got busy, he didn't feel the time passing.
"No way, we last met on July 24th, and it's already August 4th. It's been more than ten days!"
As for why she remembered so clearly?
Because for these ten days, Lin Shu would read on the balcony every evening, waiting for him...
"It's been so long! My bad, I've been too busy. Come here, a hug."
Wang Yi opened his arms.
"Hmph!"
Lin Shu snorted coldly, then pounced into Wang Yi's arms:
"I forgive you."
"So easygoing!"
Wang Yi was very surprised and couldn't help but hug Lin Shu tighter.
If it were any other girl in a county town, having just started dating and not seeing each other for ten days, she wouldn't be coaxed even after three days, or not even a bag would appease her!
Still, the little rich girl is well-behaved, beautiful, easy to coax, and has a good figure!
"Next time I go on a business trip, I'll take you with me!"
Wang Yi laughed.
"Really?"
Lin Shu beamed with joy:
"Great, great! Where are we going next time?"
"Let's see in a few days, probably outside the province."
Wang Yi said, suddenly a little worried:
"But Uncle and Auntie wouldn't let you go, would they?"
"I... I..."
Lin Shu was suddenly speechless.
Right, if she and Wang Yi went outside the province alone, her parents definitely wouldn't agree!
What to do about this?
She wanted to go!
Lin Shu's brows slightly furrowed, then her eyes lit up:
"It's fine, we'll run away from home then, and tell them once we get there! I'm eighteen, I'm an adult!"
Wang Yi: "..."
"Alas, this little rich girl is too naive, too easy to trick!"
"No, to prevent her from being tricked by others, I can only trick her myself!"
Wang Yi stroked Lin Shu's head, full of doting affection:
"Okay, first, let's settle the hard-earned money that the previous boss owed the workers, and then we'll go on our date!"
"Great, great! I'll go with you!"
The two walked into the clothing factory, and Wei Ming and Zhao Xuan hurriedly came to greet them.
"Mr. Wang, long time no see, I've missed you very much!"
Zhao Xuan, carrying the money, was full of excitement.
Because of Wang Yi, he had an extra tens of millions in sales in a month.
And this was just the beginning!
In the future, Meiyou's funds would only increase!
The God of Wealth!
"Haha, Manager Zhao, keep it up, I'm waiting for you to become Branch Manager Zhao!"
Wang Yi teased.
"Okay, just for Boss Wang's words, I will definitely work hard!"
Zhao Xuan, being so young and already a bank manager, naturally had ability and connections.
Now with Wang Yi's support and Meiyou's enormous transaction volume, becoming the branch manager of the county branch might be difficult to say, but becoming a deputy branch manager would only take a year or two!
How could he not be excited?
So, with just one phone call from Wang Yi, he personally delivered the money!
"Boss Wang, please honor us with your presence tonight, let this brother prepare a banquet and treat you well!"
Wang Yi, however, waved his hand:
"No problem, but not today, I already have plans."
Saying this, Wang Yi looked at Lin Shu.
Lin Shu smiled sweetly, graceful and poised.
"So that's how it is, haha, then another day, I'm afraid I'll have to arrange it another day!"
Zhao Xuan quickly laughed.
The girl in front of him looked a bit familiar; he seemed to have seen her somewhere before.
"Right, the Lin family! Is she the Lin family's beloved daughter?"
Zhao Xuan suddenly realized.
In a small county town, there were only so many successful people, and the bank manager was familiar with all of them.
"So it's Miss Lin, no wonder she's even prettier than a celebrity. I almost didn't recognize you, my apologies."
Zhao Xuan quickly said.
"Manager Zhao, you're exaggerating. When you become branch manager, you can punish yourself with a drink!"
Lin Shu laughed.
"Hahaha, alright, I'll take Miss Lin's auspicious words and punish myself with three drinks!"
Zhao Xuan was overjoyed, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion in his heart:
"Boss Wang and Miss Lin, a talented man and a beautiful woman, truly a match made in heaven. And they are so approachable, truly rare."
If it were other wealthy people, even if he was a bank manager, some wouldn't even pay him any mind.
Wang Yi and his group walked into the factory.
The indebted people were all waiting there, each one full of joy.
Wang Yi took the box of money and handed it to Wei Ming:
"Follow the list, have them sign and distribute! Each person gets an extra thousand as compensation for this period."
For around twenty people, an extra twenty thousand yuan could win the hearts of all the garment workers in the county town.
In the future, when Meiyou expands, builds factories, and recruits workers, it will be the first choice for all garment workers!
"Boss Wang, this isn't appropriate! The money was owed by Yin Zhixing, not you. It's already great that you're paying us, how can you give us more!"
"Exactly, Boss Wang, we can't take it!"
"Boss Wang, if it weren't for you, our hard-earned money would never have been recovered!"
"Boss Wang, thanks to you for revitalizing the clothing factory and paying wages daily, my family's finances have improved. Otherwise, we wouldn't have been able to make ends meet, so how could we ask for more?"
"That's right!"
...
Wang Yi waved his hand:
"It's just a thousand yuan. Everyone has it tough, so just take it as interest. I've seen all your efforts this month. As long as you work hard, everyone will get a big red envelope at the end of the year! It will be no smaller than this one!"
"Thank you, Boss Wang, thank you!"
For a moment, everyone beamed with joy.
Old Man Feng, the gatekeeper, was even more deeply moved, feeling that Boss Wang was a benefactor for paying off the hard-earned money Yin Zhixing owed, and even giving an extra thousand!
And there was a big year-end red envelope!
Where could you find such a good boss?
But the more it was so, the more guilty he felt.
He was very hesitant.
That matter... should he tell Boss Wang or not!
Wang Yi keenly noticed Old Man Feng's unusual behavior but didn't beat the grass to startle the snake.
He simply looked at the list, personally took out twenty-two thousand in back pay plus a 1000 red envelope, and handed it to Old Man Feng.
"Boss Wang, thank you, thank you!"
Old Man Feng's hands trembled with excitement.
"Old Man Feng, you're too kind. In our factory, we still rely on you to be observant and aware of everything around you." Wang Yi held Old Man Feng's hand.
"Good, good, I definitely won't let the Boss down!" Old Man Feng trembled as he said, the guilt on his face becoming even more apparent.
"With Old Man Feng's expression, something is definitely going on!"
Wang Yi made a mental note!
Currently, Meiyou was not very famous nationwide.
But having made it to the front-page headline of the Jizhou Evening News, its reputation within the province would be considerable!
Could it be that because of this, they were being targeted, and someone wanted to make a move against Meiyou?
Competitors are enemies!
This matter must be taken seriously!
After distributing the money, everyone dispersed.
Wang Yi, however, sought out Wei Ming, gave some instructions, and began a secret investigation...
At 8 PM, Wang Yi, having eaten and drunk his fill, left the grilled fish restaurant with Lin Shu.
Lin Shu affectionately held his hand:
"Xiao Yi, want to go watch a movie later?"
"Yes, let's see what good movies are on!"
Wang Yi said, then changed his tone:
"When we get to the cinema, let's also hold hands while we watch, okay?"
Lin Shu was too beautiful today; Wang Yi wanted to tease her a little.
"Ah? Isn't that inappropriate?"
Lin Shu's cheeks instantly flushed crimson.
"What? You don't want to hold my hand?"
Wang Yi pretended to be angry.
Lin Shu's cheeks turned even redder:
"I want to too! But there are too many people at the cinema. What if someone sees us, I... I..."
Wang Yi nodded, with a sincere expression:
"You have a point, but it's not a big problem! I know a place where we can watch a movie, and hold hands while watching, and there won't be anyone else!"
"Oh? There's such a magical place? Quick, take me there!"
Naive Lin Shu was full of curiosity; she had indeed fallen into the trap!
It wasn't until Wang Yi brought her to a strange small cinema that Lin Shu was stunned:
"Xiao Yi, why is this cinema so small? There's a sofa, and even a bed?"
