Chapter 216: Chapter 216: Who Blushed?

"Mr. Lin, rest assured, I will handle this matter carefully."

"Alright, you can try reaching out to Director Xu from the machinery factory for the equipment procurement. He has extensive connections."

Suddenly thinking of something after delegating the task, Lin Chuxia added, "Otherwise, I might as well go myself. Your wedding with Lanlan is in half a month, right?"

"Mr. Lin, please let me take care of it. I assure you, the wedding won’t be delayed, nor will the work."

Lin Chuxia knew what Su Wensong was thinking about; it was nothing more than guilt over the seasoning packet incident.

Seeing his reaction, she didn’t insist further, "Okay, just be quick. The sooner this is resolved, the better."

"Understood, Mr. Lin, you can count on me."

Now that the task had been passed to Su Wensong, Lin Chuxia wasn’t as busy. With some spare time, she went directly to see Sun Lanlan.

Sun Lanlan was also aware of the incident at the food factory. She hadn’t seen Lin Chuxia for a while and had a good rant upon seeing her.

It was incomprehensible to her. Their bun shop provided better benefits than an average factory, and Lin Chuxia had always reiterated to their management team never to mistreat the employees. Why would someone still betray them from the inside out?

"That day, it was just because I wasn’t there. If I had been, I would’ve slapped Chen Chunhua twice myself."

She crossed her arms and glared angrily, looking truly furious.

Lin Chuxia let out a couple of teasing sounds, "Are you standing up for me or feeling sorry for your Factory Director Su?"

At the mention of ’your Factory Director Su,’ Sun Lanlan’s face flushed bright red, "What are you talking about? If you keep talking nonsense, I’ll ignore you."

"I’m talking nonsense? Why is your face red, then?" Lin Chuxia tilted her head to look at her.

Sun Lanlan was truly embarrassed beyond hiding, trying to remain composed, "No, who’s blushing? It’s just really hot, and I’m angry at Chen Chunhua."

Though she spoke with defiance, inwardly she felt incredibly flustered.

The bun shop at the train station was actually renting a property from the Su Family, and since their engagement, Su Wensong and Sun Lanlan’s interactions had become more frequent.

The shift at the food factory finished earlier, so Su Wensong would almost visit the shop every day to help Sun Lanlan, also as a way to cultivate their relationship.

However, since the seasoning packet theft, Su Wensong had become quiet and reticent. Even when speaking with Sun Lanlan, it was evident that his heart was heavy with troubles.

Sun Lanlan saw this and felt anxious for him.

She knew that Su Wensong cared a lot about what Lin Chuxia thought. He was Lin Chuxia’s first employee, and now he was entrusted with managing the large Xiyang Food Factory. He was intent on doing a good job.

Of course, she felt for Su Wensong, but she cared for her sister just as much.

Lin Chuxia was just teasing her. After they had talked enough, she clapped her hands, "Alright, let’s not talk about him. Since your Old Su probably doesn’t have time to be with you lately, I’ll make it up to you. Let’s go shopping for new clothes to change out of these, and we’ll head to the city."

The weather was getting hotter, and people were already starting to wear dresses.

In her 20 years living with the Lin Family, she had never worn a dress. Even if Lin Jiayi had dresses, by the time she grew out of them, Mother Lin would alter them into tank tops or shorts.

Lin Chuxia would wear the tank tops or shorts that Lin Jiayi didn’t want anymore.

In her past life, because of this, once Lin Chuxia had money, she liked to buy herself beautiful dresses—a hobby that lasted until her death.

Reborn and back to her youthful prime, she was even more determined to splurge.

The styles at the department store in Ancheng County were too plain. She had bought what she liked, and today, she planned to look in the city.

No woman doesn’t like beautiful new clothes. Sun Lanlan changed out of her work outfit, took care of the shop’s affairs, and happily set out with Lin Chuxia.

The two took the bus straight to the department store in the city.

It was the season when new spring and summer collections were arriving. The department store showcased an array of these seasonal clothes, with many new arrivals from the south, making both of their eyes sparkle.

"My mom got some fabric for me the other day and said she made me two outfits as part of my dowry. I was thinking then that instead of getting fabric, it would be better to buy ready-made clothes—you see how nice these designs are, who could make these themselves?" Sun Lanlan pointed to a suit.

"That’s Aunt Sun’s thoughtfulness for you. We, living in the city, are exposed to new things and adapt our mindsets quickly, but our family members still hold onto old ways of thinking."

As Lin Chuxia said this, she had already instructed the salesperson to bring the suit down.

Sun Lanlan understood immediately, "Oh, I was just mentioning it, I didn’t really plan on getting it."

She looked at the price tag; the suit was 80 yuan. Even now that she was earning a salary, she couldn’t bear to spend 80 yuan on clothes.

"I’ll give it to you," Lin Chuxia offered generously, "Feel this material, it’s smooth and soft. It won’t crease easily on your body. Try it on."

Sun Lanlan wanted to refuse, but Lin Chuxia put on a stern face, and immediately provoked another laugh from her.

"Xiaxia, having a sister like you is a blessing I must have cultivated over eight lifetimes."

"Are you moved to tears? I’ve said it before: once your sister has money, I’ll cover you. Go try it on. If you miss out here, you won’t find it anywhere else."

"Then I should pick out a few more."

Sun Lanlan happily took the clothes to try on, while Lin Chuxia browsed nearby.

Lin Chuxia was holding a skirt to her waist when she heard someone calling her, "Comrade Lin?"

She saw a lean man striding towards her from afar, "I thought you looked familiar, and sure enough, it’s Comrade Lin."

Lin Chuxia had already recognized him; it was Director Yang from the department store’s procurement department.

Last year when she came to the department store to buy clothes, she had a dispute with a salesperson over a woolen coat, and it was this Director Yang and Manager Zhao who had intervened.

"Hello, Director Yang."

Chapter 204 Special - Part 2 Lin Chuxia greeted him with a nod.

Director Yang rubbed his hands, "Are you here to buy clothes? Our department store has just introduced a range of clothes, all the latest styles from the south. Comrade Lin is beautiful and has a good figure; buying a few outfits would be perfect for promoting our department store."

Lin Chuxia frowned slightly—at that time, it was not common to compliment women directly on their looks and figure, especially to their face.

Thinking about Director Yang’s possibly inappropriate relationship with a previous salesperson, Lin Chuxia’s expression cooled, "I apologize, Director Yang, but I need to leave for other matters."

"Comrade Lin, wait, don’t rush off."

Yang Rui spoke again, but Lin Chuxia frowned, clearly showing impatience.

"It’s like this—regarding the membership card service that Comrade Lin mentioned last time, our department store has adopted it. The response has been exceptional. Within just half a year, we’ve acquired over a thousand members, converting them into loyal customers of our store. It has greatly boosted our sales. Manager Zhao has mentioned many times, the next time we see Comrade Lin, we would like to gift a membership card, and we would also like to invite Comrade Lin for a meal."
