Chapter 76 - Looking for Merchandise (4)
“We have a lot of designs. I have 20 ~ 30 new designs. I can honestly tell you that we have the most out of all the factories in the area. But we have not yet made our final decisions yet. Maybe in another week or so. What say you come back in a week’s time?” Owner He smiled.
“That works.” Shu Yan nodded and gave Owner He the address of her shop. “Swing on by when you have a chance next time. You can let me know if you see any room for improvements.”
She left her address with him so he’d know that she truly was the owner of a shop. She didn’t want him to think that she was a spy from another factory.
Sure enough, Owner He was much more genuine after he had her shop address in hand. He walked Shu Yan to the front door and set a date with her to come back to check out more samples.
To someone like Owner He, 20~30 different designs were a lot already. But Shu Yan was going to open up a shop. She’d need at least 100 different designs.
It was getting late so she’d check out the other two factories the next day. When the remodeling was about to be completed, she’d need to visit the wholesale market in City Hang. It’d be more tiring at the beginning, but it’d get better.
When she finally got back to the tutorial center, Tianbao was the only one left. Shu Yan apologized to the teacher, embarrassed.
“There was traffic on the road. I am so sorry.”
“It’s alright. These things happen. Hurry up and go home. Tianbao must be hungry,” said the teacher gently as he walked them out.
If Shu Yan was late to pick up Ye Tianbao, she was for sure late picking up Ye Jingjing as well. Shu Yan apologized to that teacher as well. She was a bit quiet on her way home. She has learned her lesson. She couldn’t cut it so close going forward. It’s difficult to predict how long she would be stuck in traffic.
“Mom, I can pick Tianbao up in the future. We can go home by ourselves,” said Ye Jingjing to her mother. She knew that her mother had been very busy lately and still had to take care of the two of them. She wanted to help her out where she could.
“I’ll be good too.” Perhaps he, too, had seen Shu Yan being very busy lately, Ye Tianbao had been much more mature as of late.
When the children were naughty, they were a headache, and she had wished they’d grow up quickly. Now that they were so mature, Shu Yan felt sad. One was seven and the other one three. When they were too mature for their age, it was the fault of the adult.
“Don’t worry about it. Mom misjudged the time today. It won’t happen again.” If this was still back in the village, it would have been fine. But in a big city like City Nan and the two kids were still so young, Shu Yan wouldn’t feel comfortable to have them going to and from school by themselves. This was not where one should take any chances. It’d be too late to cry if something really happened to them.
Ye Jingjing helped with preparing the vegetables and even Ye Tianbao was helping on one side. Shu Yan smiled and quickly cooked the rice and dishes. It was already past 6 PM, and both of them have been starving.
Shu Yan didn’t eat her diet amount tonight. It wasn’t that she couldn’t persist anymore but that she had been too busy lately. She needed some food to go on. If she fell ill, who’d take care of the two kids?
It had been a week since she had stopped eating dinner. Shu Yan felt that even the rice was sweet. But she still exercised her self-control and only had half a bowl of rice and some vegetables. Definitely couldn’t have any meat.
