Yourong's careful planning

Hearing that he was about to get a car, Chen Yiguo happily raised his wine glass that night. Chen Dong still had to drive tomorrow, so he naturally couldn't drink much, just having a few sips with his father as a gesture.

Early the next morning, Chen Hong put on the new clothes she bought yesterday, wore a baseball cap, and carried a sun umbrella, looking youthful and radiant.

Chen Yiguo and his wife also changed into new clothes, and the family of four got into Chen Dong's car and drove towards the county town.

First, Chen Hong was dropped off at the meeting point her classmates had agreed upon, then Chen Dong drove his parents to the newly opened supermarket downstairs.

Liao Yourong was already waiting downstairs. Seeing Chen Dong get out of the car, she quickly came forward with a sweet smile on her face.

"Is this the manager my son found? She wouldn't be his girlfriend, would she?"

Liu Xiaofang looked at the beautiful and well-figured Liao Yourong, whispering to Chen Yiguo.

"How would I know? It's my first time seeing her too."

"You must be Uncle and Auntie. My name is Liao Yourong, and I am the manager of Kangle Supermarket. From now on, I will be working under your guidance, Uncle and Auntie."

Liao Yourong knew Chen Dong's parents were coming, so she specifically dressed up, making her look even more beautiful.

"Oh, you're too polite, girl. What do we know about supermarket management? We'll have to rely on you."

"Let's go up and take a look." Liao Yourong had already processed the documents yesterday afternoon, and with the help of her mother, the shelves were also installed.

Chen Dong directly transferred 2 million yuan to the supermarket account for purchasing goods, refrigerators, shelves, and so on.

Except for the fresh produce section, which was a bit more troublesome, other items had gradually arrived. For the staff, Liao Yourong's mother, Zhuo Zhen, was overseeing. Currently, eleven employees were in place and busy in the supermarket. Today's main task was to arrange the goods, and if all went well, they could open for business tomorrow!

Chen Dong followed Liao Yourong around and was generally satisfied; things were indeed moving very quickly.

Zhuo Zhen looked a bit younger than Liu Xiaofang. After all, having lived in the city for a long time, she was very organized, directing a group of employees in arranging items, showing quite a leadership presence.

"Mom and Dad, what do you think of this supermarket? In the future, when you have nothing to do, come over often to help me look after it, or even help with some tasks. Regarding the accounts, if you don't understand anything, just ask You Rong.

Anyway, when running a supermarket, the most important thing is that the quality of the goods sold must be up to standard. There must be no expired products, no spoiled or moldy fresh vegetables, and the supermarket's surveillance must be checked daily to ensure it's working properly."

It didn't matter if the supermarket in the small county town made money; the main thing was to give his parents a place to pass the time.

"Let's go see the house." After seeing the supermarket, Chen Dong asked Liao Yourong to take the three of them to see the house he bought yesterday.

Chen Dong planned to live in the penthouse duplex on the 19th floor. Looking at the 150-square-meter duplex, even though it was only simply decorated and the furniture and appliances hadn't arrived yet, it had already shocked Chen Yiguo and his wife beyond words.

They never dreamed that they would be able to live in such a luxurious house in their lifetime.

"How is it, Mom and Dad? Is this house alright?" Chen Dong asked with a smile, knowing without asking that his parents were very satisfied.

"After the supermarket officially opens, we'll quickly buy the furniture and appliances. Buy good brands. This will be your base in the county town from now on."

"Dongzi, how much does this house cost? It must be very expensive, right?"

Liao Yourong stood by, quietly observing everything before her. Beneath her calm exterior, her heart had already begun to churn.

Yesterday, she still thought Chen Dong was a rich second-generation, and that he could spend so much money on buying a house and opening a supermarket because his parents had made money outside, and he was just squandering it.

Even so, she was very interested in Chen Dong.

But accompanying him today made her fully realize that Chen Dong's parents were just ordinary farmers, which meant all his money was earned by himself!

This was too terrifying. To what extent must a person be outstanding to earn so much money at 22 years old? He spent over 90 million on a house, opened a supermarket casually, and even paid the highest salaries to employees!

In just two hours, her heart became incredibly fervent, and her gaze towards Chen Dong was full of little stars.

But Liao Yourong was very smart. She knew that an excellent man like Chen Dong must have many beautiful women around him, and simply throwing herself at him might not be effective.

She immediately realized she had a huge advantage: she would be able to see Chen Dong's parents almost every day from now on.

If Chen Dong's parents approved of her, then even if other women had their schemes, they could only be concubines, and she would be the true main wife!

"Auntie, this house was specially bought by the boss to show filial piety to you two. When you settle down here, it will also be convenient when the boss brings his girlfriend back to have a place to stay."

"The girl is right. It's just this silly boy, he still hasn't brought a girlfriend home yet."

Thinking of this, Liu Xiaofang suddenly seemed to get energized.

"Dongzi, what about that girlfriend you used to talk about? Gu Feifei, right? You've been together for three years, why haven't you brought her home for me and your father to see?"

"Mom, we broke up a long time ago."

"Broke up? When did that happen? How come I don't know?

You rotten kid, did you dump her as soon as you got money? I'm telling you, our Old Chen family can't do such heartless things."

"Mom, what are you talking about? She was the one who disliked my circumstances and initiated the breakup. We agreed on it; it's not that complicated."

Liu Xiaofang looked at Chen Dong with a skeptical gaze, making Chen Dong feel uneasy. He secretly glared at Liao Yourong, thinking, 'Why did you bring up the girlfriend topic for no reason?'

Liao Yourong stuck out her tongue, her heart already blooming with joy: the boss currently had no girlfriend, so her chances were even greater.

"Auntie, I believe the boss isn't the kind of man who abandons people. He must have his reasons. How about we go downstairs for a drink of water? I see you've been walking for quite a while."

Liu Xiaofang looked at this sweet and sensible young girl, her eyes full of smiles, while Chen Yiguo remained absent-minded.

"Old Chen, why are you making such a long face? If you keep looking like a dead man, I'll hit you."

"Ahem, Dad has something on his mind," Chen Dong said, looking understanding.

"What could be on his mind? Does he think this house isn't good enough?"

"No, Mom, he's thinking about his car."

Chen Yiguo, whose true thoughts had been exposed by Chen Dong, didn't blush. He raised his head proudly,

"Yes, I just want to buy a car quickly, what's wrong with that?"

"Haha, Dad, how about we go buy a car now and let Mom rest here? She doesn't understand cars anyway."

"Sounds good to me." Chen Yiguo had long been eager to own his own car. Ever since he got his driver's license, he had been driving for the company, and he still didn't have a car that truly belonged to him.

"Mom, you can learn about the supermarket and the house here, including the purchase of household appliances and furniture. You can discuss everything with You Rong. I'll take Dad to buy a car."

"Alright, you two go. Don't buy him a good car; a car worth fifty or sixty thousand will be fine."

Chen Yiguo's face instantly fell. Fifty or sixty thousand! Besides Wuling, what else could he buy?
