"Then what if the Shen Family falls and Shen Feng has his downfall?" Shen Yi asked. freeweɓnovēl.coɱ
Qin Jiao said coolly, "Oh, in that case, her target would probably be another young master of the Shen family."
Seeing her cold look, Shen Yi’s expression immediately turned serious. "Jiao Jiao, rest assured, I would never be interested in a woman with ulterior motives like Lin Nian. Besides, she had a miscarriage with Shen Feng’s child—she’s Shen Feng’s woman. A brother’s wife is off-limits."
Qin Jiao offered a dry smile.
Shen Yi continued, "As far as I’m concerned, the only women in the world are you, Jiao Jiao, and my mom. To me, every other woman is no different from a man. Jiao Jiao, I’m telling the truth."
"True or not, if you fidget again, I’m not going to roll this egg on your face for you."
The moment Shen Yi heard that, he sat up straight and stopped moving, as obedient as a schoolboy. frёewebnoѵel.ƈo๓
Qin Jiao knew his injury wasn’t serious, but she eased up on the pressure anyway. After rolling the hard-boiled egg over his face a few times, she finally asked, "Feeling better?"
Shen Yi: "It feels great!"
"Then you can do it yourself. I’m going to go find your mom and talk about the clothing alterations." She immediately stuffed the egg into Shen Yi’s hand and walked out.
Shen Yi sighed. ’My Jiao Jiao’s gentle side is always so short-lived!’
When Qin Jiao found Du Liya, Du Liya was gesturing over some polyester fabric. She said, "Xiao Jiao, are you planning to make a few pieces of clothing entirely out of polyester?"
"Putting our own clothes aside for a moment, I think we can cut this polyester into different decorations to put on the T-shirts—like bows, for example, or letters."
"Letters are a great idea. I haven’t seen that in the market here, and a lot of people are starting to learn English now. The only thing is, it’s getting cold here in North City. It’s already too cold for even a light jacket. If we want to sell these, we’ll have to market them to the South."
Qin Jiao nodded. "I remember a few big department stores in the South. We can send someone to negotiate with them. As long as one store agrees to carry our line, we’ll be set. What we need to do now is create some designs, make some samples, and then send someone to talk to the department stores in the South. Plus, this will be our first big move to open up a new sales channel!"
’If they were just a little creative, they could turn this waste into a treasure and use this opportunity to make a name for the revamped clothing factory!’
Du Liya’s eyes lit up when she heard Qin Jiao’s ideas. She said, "Xiao Jiao, I’m so happy I could give you a big kiss! You’re so clever, coming up with all these great ideas!"
Just then, Shen Yi walked in, still rolling the egg back and forth across his face. He chimed in, "Mom, she’s my wife. Only I get to kiss her, not you."
Du Liya was a little speechless. But she noticed that after her son said that, Xiao Jiao only glared at Xiao Yi. ’Does this mean the relationship between those two is heating up?’
’This is a good thing!’
She said, "Alright, I’ll finalize the design modification plans in the next day or two and then get some samples made. But we’ll need a few people for that. Xiao Yi, what’s the situation with the workers?"
Shen Yi said, "I’ve decided to put up some of my own money and pick a few workers who seem reliable to start production again. They can help you make the altered clothes. Once the others see them earning money, they won’t be able to hold out for long."
Those workers had just been incited by others. Besides, they all depended on this job to live; they couldn’t afford to be stubborn forever.
Du Liya nodded. "But this time," she said, "we have to weed out the ones who did the instigating, so they don’t stir up any more trouble in the future."
