Chapter 1789 Friendship
Ye Yaodong and Lin Xiuqing watched as Ye Chenghu was kept in the dark.
They were holding their mobile phones, chatting excitedly back and forth, and only hung up after being urged by the couple.
Lin Xiuqing asked in confusion, "You bought the Little Tyrant game console but didn't tell your older brother?"
"correct."
Why keep it from him?
Ye Xiaoxi looked at Ye Chengyang. She didn't know why she had to keep it from her eldest brother. She had just wanted to tell him, but her second brother wouldn't let her.
The reason I didn't tell my older brother after buying it is because they didn't call him either.
Ye Chengyang was also a little confused. Right, why did he keep it from his older brother? If his older brother knew, he wouldn't be able to play either, and he couldn't compete with them. He still had tutoring.
Moreover, they can no longer be taken to Shanghai; even if the older brother knew, he wouldn't be able to play with them.
He thought about it for a while before coming up with a suitable reason.
"If his older brother finds out, he won't be able to concentrate on class or study, and he'll get angry. So it's better not to let him know and let him focus on his studies. Anyway, whether he knows or not, he won't be able to play."
Do you think you can keep it a secret?
"Whatever, he didn't ask. Isn't it normal that I didn't call him? He didn't call us either."
"I hope I won't be furious when the time comes."
Ye Yaodong took away the mobile phone, but he hadn't even had enough of touching it himself.
I can take it with me when I go out for a social event tomorrow, and I can also share my phone number with everyone.
Ye Xiaoxi lay on his lap, looking at him with curiosity, "Dad, how much does this cost? Is it expensive?"
"It's expensive; you'd have to sell it to afford it."
She smugly thought, "Then I'm quite valuable."
"You're actually happy about this?"
"Dad, can I play my game console for a while, and then can I play this for a while too?"
"Dream on! Get lost! School starts in a few days. Have you finished your homework?"
"I finished my homework while my second brother and I were on the boat. We can have a good time for a few days and then go back to Shanghai for school."
"alright."
That makes sense, since we've already withheld it, let them have a few days to play to their hearts' content.
Seeing that they had no chance to touch the mobile phone, the brother and sister went off to play video games, leaving only the couple to examine the novelty together.
When it was time for work, the two moved to the office to see each other and spend some time together.
"The Qixi Festival (Chinese Valentine's Day) social event is this evening. Is the factory all ready?"
"Everything is definitely prepared. We have the experience from last year, so there's no need to worry about any oversights."
What are the gifts for this year?
"Of course, it's still a specialty product from the factory. It can also be used for promotion, so that people can take it back and share it with their families or relatives and friends."
"The factory's trucks have to go to the dock to pick up goods this afternoon, so I guess a lot of people won't be able to stay."
"There's no other way. Can we just shut down the entire factory and not do any work just for a social event? Of course not. The workers in the workshops will continue to work as usual."
Anyone who wants to participate in the event must register in advance. After the participants are confirmed, everyone will take a day off to avoid working.
Their factory operates on a three-shift system, so there's no need to worry about a lack of attendees when they hold events, as there are plenty of people available.
"That's true." Lin Xiuqing didn't say anything more.
The factory was already set up early this morning, much like last year, with many things being reused.
The open space in front of the cafeteria hasn't been decorated yet. The plan is to wait until the sun goes down before running the electrical wires out of the cafeteria and bringing out the speakers to play some music.
The young men went to shower and get ready early.
By the time the sun went down, everyone had washed the ground thoroughly.
All is ready except for the opportunity.
Lin Xiuqing even went back to her dormitory to tidy herself up, put on a dress, and put on some makeup, after all, she was the boss's wife and represented the face of the factory.
However, Ye Yaodong received a phone call and had to go out for a social engagement, so he left all the arrangements to Manager Qi. Aqing was also in charge of the reception, as she had been there last year and was no stranger to him.
Whether he's there or not, it's all the same.
He hasn't gone out much this month, and he hasn't answered many of the phone calls because he's either at home.
He's been back from his hometown for two days now, and he needs to go out and socialize a bit.
When he went out, the open space in the factory area was already bustling with people, and the radio was playing Sally Yeh's "Walk Away with Style," with the young men all humming along energetically.
Lin Xiuqing didn't need to do anything. She just needed to go out and greet the guests when they arrived. The factory had already arranged everything, so she didn't need to do anything but smile, chat, and watch the fun.
The textile factory's leaders are the same two who came last year, but the female workers are not necessarily the same batch as last year; most of them are new faces.
Because of the hot weather, all the women were wearing all kinds of skirts and dressed up in a bright and beautiful way. They were a beautiful sight as soon as they got off the bus.
In summer, people wear less clothing, exposing their arms and legs, and it's easy to tell whether someone has a shapely figure. The single men in the factory were all staring, and those who didn't manage to sign up were secretly regretting it.
When they arrived, it wasn't dark yet. Lin Xiuqing first invited the leaders and female colleagues to the canteen to have a bowl of cold summer drinks to cool off.
Unlike last year, this time it was already quite late after the event, and it wasn't suitable to linger for a late-night snack or anything like that, so we were arranged to get off the bus, rest, and have some cold drinks and snacks.
The textile factory leaders were extremely satisfied with their arrangements. They were so thoughtful; no one was ever allowed to go hungry. After coming all this way, no one wanted to be neglected.
That's why there was a second time, and this year there were even more female comrades who came after hearing about it.
After everyone finished their snacks and rested, it got dark, and music started playing in the open space of the factory. Everyone was getting restless, so they took the opportunity to go out and start their activities.
Lin Xiuqing watched the shy men and women playing games the whole time, their faces flushed and their bodies swaying and flirting. As someone with experience, she felt both amused and apprehensive.
Her nephew didn't attend this year, nor did Ye Chengjiang or Lin Guangwen.
Ye Chengjiang is now waiting for the start of the semester so that Ye Chenghu can introduce him to a female classmate.
Ye Chenghu kept calling him, which was incredibly annoying. He only said that he would ask after the start of the semester if any female classmates wanted to be pen pals.
He wouldn't dare ask any of his female classmates if they wanted to date anyone; that would be asking for trouble, and no female classmate would dare to boldly say that she wanted to date anyone.
It's very popular to write letters and make pen pals these days. It's a good excuse to use this as a pretext. It's about making friends, not about starting a romantic relationship.
It's so scary it would scare people away.
