Eighties Sweetheart Wife-Chapter 624: Consolidating No. 5 Factory

Song Yunuan went to Xiangjiang, and coincidentally held a new product launch with the person in charge of Dongfang Hong.

Before leaving, the construction plan for the large hotel had also been approved.

And the first phase of the West Mountain Villa District was successfully completed.

Song Yunuan also deliberately slowed down, not opening the villas for sale to avoid causing a stir.

As for the hotel, it was for the convenience of future business dealings.

Song Yunuan made the largest investment in Hai City’s animation studio.

Now, not only had "Adventures of Little Stone" come out, but several other fantasy-themed animations had been released, catering to both Eastern and Western audiences.

And the studio in Hai City had expanded.

Many graduates were also assigned to it.

The factory was large, with good treatment, and located in Hai City; those who went there had their residency and housing arrangements resolved.

With such attractive conditions, many were eager to join.

Song Yunuan had invested in a movie, promising Gu Jiaojiao a role, which she naturally intended to honor.

For a while, Song Yunuan even took the anxious Gu Jiaojiao under her wing.

It was conveniently summer vacation at the time.

So, she had her and Zhou Xiaohua work as her assistants.

When school was about to start again, Gu Jiaojiao quietly approached Song Yunuan, "Sister Little Nuan, I... I’m planning to apply to a military academy!"

Song Yunuan was somewhat surprised, as she had thought Gu Jiaojiao would apply to a film academy.

Indeed, with the Gu family’s background, Jiaojiao becoming a star wouldn’t be problematic; she wouldn’t encounter any messy situations.

Had she changed her mind suddenly?

Song Yunuan then asked her why.

Gu Jiaojiao: "I... I just feel that my previous thoughts weren’t wrong, but after understanding the performing arts, I realized that if I became an actress, I would be living someone else’s life.

Actually, I am full of flaws. I naturally like to speak my mind, and if it weren’t for me speaking without thinking, my older brother and Sister Shu Xiang wouldn’t have broken up, and maybe they would be married by now.

Actually, I found that after they broke up, the atmosphere at home didn’t become much happier, and my big brother is holding onto that pile of stuff without returning it. My mom inquired, and the embroidery is worth 500 yuan more than what you mentioned."

After inquiring, Mom realized that although the Shu family appeared modest, they were really quite substantial and just very low-key.

Otherwise, Sister Little Nuan wouldn’t have invited Sister-in-law Shu to be the deputy factory director.

I heard that Deputy Director Han is doing very well.

The embroidery has been damaged by mice.

Mom withdrew 6,000 yuan from the bank.

Actually, that was money reserved for my big brother’s wedding.

Now it had to compensate others.

As for big brother, he could keep holding onto those things if he wanted to.

When there was a chance, Mom went to the Shu family’s house, and it was truly quite awkward.

But the Shu family was very courteous and mild.

They didn’t mention the past at all.

Sister-in-law Shu even said she was now deputy director at Zhilan Garment Factory, in charge of the embroidery section. Zhilan Garment Factory had just started operating a month ago, and now it had received several export orders. The factory was thriving, and she was so happy to work with Sister Little Nuan that she had no time to feel otherwise. One piece of embroidery was nothing serious, really.

Anyway, let’s not talk about the past. Both Shu Xiang and Gu Jiaojiao had their issues.

Gu Jiaojiao felt that much of the trouble was caused by her.

Grandpa suggested she should go to the north district to shape up and get rid of her bad habits. Instead of that, she might as well go straight to the military academy. If she got in, she would leave home.

That way, if big brother and Shu Xiang made up, she wouldn’t feel awkward being at home.

Song Yunuan was very surprised and said to Gu Jiaojiao, "Where did you get the idea that they are going to make up? I heard from Sister-in-law Shu that Shu Xiang is going to go away for further studies soon, and she’s going to a city very far from Beidu."

Then Song Yunuan reminded Gu Jiaojiao, "I found out by chance. Watch your mouth!"

Gu Jiaojiao immediately nodded and eagerly promised.

This further solidified her determination to apply for the military academy.

So she began to train for physical fitness right away.

With Song Yunuan’s arrangements, her academic performance had already improved. What she needed to train now was her physical fitness.

Song Yunuan glanced at Gu Jiaojiao and said, "Then you should prepare well."

Gu Jiaojiao sincerely said, "Even so, I have to thank Sister Little Nuan. No matter what the future holds, I won’t be like I was before."

If she truly felt that way, it was a sign of growth.

But before Song Yunuan left Beidu, she still called her older brother aside.

She asked him to do a fortune-telling for her, to see how the trip to Xiangjiang would go.

Song Mingbo said with a grin, "There’s no need to predict; it will be smooth sailing all the way."

Then, curious, he asked Song Yunuan, "Why do you bring this up?"

Just then, the inner voice that Song Yunuan hadn’t heard for a long time suddenly rang out.

[Mainly because you, driving a car, killed someone. And the person you hit was Huai’an’s eldest cousin...

Your head suffered an impact causing you to lose your memory; to put it bluntly, you were dazed from the impact, with the intelligence of a four- or five-year-old child.

Asheng was much smarter than you at four or five years old.

Back then, you were so foolish you couldn’t even feed yourself, and you would urinate and defecate anywhere, really breaking mom and dad’s hearts. This kind of illness is difficult to cure; it’s not just a matter of having enough money.

For safety and to spare mom and dad some worry, you’d better not drive anymore.]

Listening to this made Song Mingbo’s heart clench.

He really wanted to turn around and run.

Nobody may realize how much he loved cars.

Asking him not to drive was torture.

But he also knew that many things have causes and consequences.

There’s a saying, "If one door shuts, another opens."

If it doesn’t find you here, it will catch up with you there.

Besides, why on earth would you hit Huai’an’s eldest cousin?

He hadn’t heard very clearly just now, but certainly, someone had been run over and killed.

Otherwise, Little Nuan’s inner voice wouldn’t have resurfaced.

It had been years since she last heard Little Nuan’s inner voice.

What was going on?

He was not only stupid now but was also causing Little Nuan trouble.

He would never drive again, not in this lifetime.

But he couldn’t let Little Nuan find out, so he scratched his head and said with a goofy smile, "Little Nuan, you can’t just come up with this without a reason. Tell me, what else do you want to instruct your big brother in? I’ll listen to you."

Song Yunuan thought for a moment and then said, "Big brother, our family can hire a driver. I’ve already spoken to Huai’an about this, and he’ll find someone reliable. I’ll leave you the keys to my car, so whenever there’s something, have the driver take you there."

This arrangement was excellent.

The people Huai’an managed to send over were mostly from the north district.

Seeing that Song Mingbo agreed without any objections, Song Yunuan breathed a sigh of relief.

And so, Song Yunuan and Zhong Shaoqing left for Xiangjiang with Secretary Luo, Zhou Xiaohua, and both Adah and Acheng.

At this time, Zhong Daqiao was feeling complacent.

He had successfully completed the transfer of assets.

It wouldn’t be accurate to say he had nothing left, but he had given nearly everything to his wife and his son Tianci.

He thought, when Zhong Shaoqing came to Xiangjiang to complete the last procedure, he would take the opportunity to bring in the media. In front of everyone, he would return the abandoned jade mine and the Hai family’s jewelry company full of fakes to Zhong Shaoqing.

That way, it wouldn’t seem like he had taken any real advantage of the Hai family.
