“Okay.”
Gao Yuan nodded. A few days ago, he happened to run into Xiang Xiaoyuan while he was doing some business. During their chat, Xiang Xiaoyuan had also mentioned the convenience store to him a few times. Although he was not very clear what Mrs. Lu was thinking, Gao Yuan’s wife had told him not to probe into a woman’s thoughts, because you would never understand the brain circuits of a woman.
Therefore, he gave up trying to guess Xiang Xiaoyuan’s reason for opening a convenience store. He just had to do his part. For example, on the opening day, he would send a flower basket on behalf of the boss, and at the same time, he would pay for the flower basket himself. He wanted to express his good wishes for the opening of the lady boss’s store.
Lu Wanggui recalled the expression on Xiang Xiaoyuan’s face when she asked him to support her. He added, “You can send a few more in the right amount.”
Gao Yuan was stunned. What was the right amount? As a personal assistant, he needed to know these details. Unfortunately, Lu Wanggui did not give him the chance to ask in detail. The moment his phone rang, he waved his hand to signal Gao Yuan to leave.
Gao Yuan: “…”
Since that was the case, he could only do as he pleased.
However, he really could not decide how many more to send. Taking advantage of the lunch break, Gao Yuan asked his wife out. While eating lunch, he raised his concern. “CEO Lu said to send more. How many more do you think I should send? CEO Lu is too busy. I’m too embarrassed to ask him about such a small matter.”
He didn’t want CEO Lu to think that he was incompetent and couldn’t even handle such a small matter.
“Actually, I want to know why your lady boss wants to open a convenience store.”
Gao Yuan guessed, “She’s probably bored and wants to pass the time. Just like when you were bored before, didn’t you want to open a flower shop or coffee shop or something? Her thoughts should be similar to yours.”
Gao Yuan’s wife smiled and shook her head. “When I was bored, I didn’t think about opening a convenience store. Alright, let’s not dwell on this for now. With CEO Lu’s wealth, the number of flower baskets shouldn’t be too small. It’s best if we can gather an auspicious number, such as 99,1314, and so on. But considering the fact that the convenience store your lady boss opened can’t be too big, if we send too many flower baskets, it will cause congestion.”
Gao Yuan hurriedly nodded. He felt that his wife’s analysis was very reasonable.
His wife lowered her head and thought for a while. “Why don’t we send 11 flowers? It means ‘one and only’.”
Gao Yuan scratched his head. “This is the first time I know that numbers have so many meanings.”
His wife smiled. “You straight men don’t have any romantic ideas at all. It would be strange if you knew.”
Gao Yuan chuckled and doggedly picked up a piece of rib for his wife. “Thank God for you.”
In the eyes of outsiders, Lu Wanggui and Xiang Xiaoyuan’s marriage must have been because of love. Lu Wanggui loved Xiang Xiaoyuan so much that he married her.
And so…
On the opening day of the convenience store, Xiang Xiaoyuan woke up early and quietly went out. In order to get a good start, she even wore a red dress superstitiously, implying that business would be booming in the future.
Just as she arrived at the convenience store, Xu Xiyao followed. After the two of them busied themselves for a while, the first guest who greeted them was not a guest, but the florist.
