Chapter 940: Chapter 940: No Need to Beat Around the Bush
Xinyan looked in the direction Jiang Peiqin was pointing: "That’s Xue Hongjuan, how come she has a new follower now?"
Jiang Peiqin slightly frowned: "That person is her cousin Duan Shilei, a playboy."
Xinyan withdrew her gaze: "Anyone associated with her is no good in my book."
With that, she walked forward.
What she didn’t know was that not far away, Xue Hongjuan was also talking to her cousin Duan Shilei: "The girl beside Jiang Peiqin is Han Xinyan. I think she fits your type, cousin, what do you think? Do you like her?"
Duan Shilei stroked his chin: "Did this girl offend you somehow?"
Xue Hongjuan was somewhat guilty: "Why would you ask that, cousin?"
Duan Shilei glanced at the receding figure: "You know me better than anyone, there’s no need to beat around the bush."
Xue Hongjuan rolled her eyes at her cousin: "Yes, she blocked my path. How can I let her have an easy time?"
Duan Shilei knew his cousin’s nature too well: "Tell me, what exactly is going on?"
Xue Hongjuan didn’t want to elaborate: "If you like her, just reel her in. It’s that simple, why ask so many questions?"
Although Duan Shilei was a libertine, he wasn’t stupid: "That girl is indeed pleasing to the eye and my type, but if you don’t explain clearly, I dare not help you."
Xue Hongjuan got a bit anxious: "Cousin, when did you become so timid?"
Duan Shilei gave his cousin a sideways glance: "With everything so interconnected now, didn’t grandfather warn us repeatedly? You just ignored it?"
Only then did Xue Hongjuan reluctantly say: "She’s just a student from East Province with no background. Once we’re done with her, we can discard her. She won’t cause any trouble."
Thinking of Xinyan’s beauty, Duan Shilei licked his teeth with the tip of his tongue: "You’ve investigated thoroughly, are you sure there’s no problem?"
Xue Hongjuan thought to herself: It’s just a relationship with someone from a transportation company. I’ve had people investigate; besides serving a few years in the army, there’s nothing special about him, and he’s from East Province too.
As for the Shen Family that raised him, that branch has no one left, and those remaining have nothing to do with him. There’s no need to tell my cousin these things.
Actually, she knew her boyfriend treated her particularly well, but she just didn’t want her to have an easy time.
As long as her reputation is ruined, let’s see if Mu Haoming still likes her, let’s see if her boyfriend still cherishes her. If you provoke Xue Hongjuan and still want to have a good life, dream on.
Now that Mu Haoming hides from her all the time, if she doesn’t act soon, she’s afraid she’ll go mad.
Xinyan really didn’t know she would think this way. If she knew, she would have surely said, even without me, you wouldn’t have a chance. What a way to find an excuse.
Isn’t this a case of sitting at home and a pot falls from the sky?

Time flew by, and the two newly opened shops over in the market were all ready. The three-entry courtyard used for a warehouse and clothing workshop was also completed. After airing out for a few days, it could be put to use.
Xinyan also reorganized the staff.
Ling Tianze was in overall charge, Qi Baocheng was in charge of Chongyang Mountain Villa, the earlier opened clothing store was entrusted to Fang Runmei, who was hired earlier, and the agency store was handed over to Gao Fu’e, who was also hired earlier.
Chen Manjuan was transferred to be responsible for the soon-to-open curtain store and clothing workshop, while Mao Jiangpeng, who joined later and was quick-witted, was assigned to the tea shop by Xinyan.
If any of the stores lacked manpower, they could recruit more staff.
Everyone performed their duties and quickly fell into a routine, just waiting for an auspicious day to open the new stores and celebrate all four together.
