Chapter 142 I drank the wine in Jiangcheng.
From beginning to end, Li Minghao and Zheng Junjie never mentioned to Jiang Cheng that they were giving up university and wanted to stay in Yancheng to sell blind boxes.
Even Jiang Cheng wants to go to university. If they only care about money, they will definitely disappoint Jiang Cheng.
So even though they earned less, the two of them didn't say anything.
Moreover, the money they earned was given to them by Jiang Cheng; they were just selling blind boxes, and anyone could do that.
But Liu Qiang is different. Liu Qiang manages the entire Qingning team for Jiang Cheng. He does all the hard and tiring work, but he doesn't earn a fraction of what they do.
Liu Qiang should earn this money too.
So the two had some regrets, but the handover went smoothly.
That evening, Jiang Cheng was in his office in Yancheng, watching Su Qingrou's long legs swaying in front of him as she worked.
My phone rang, and it was my mom calling.
Ever since my parents opened this lobster restaurant and business improved, they've been working tirelessly to earn more money.
He had long forgotten about this son; he had completely forgotten about him.
So it's quite unusual for them to call today.
Jiang Cheng answered the phone, and his mother's voice came through: "Son, where are you? Come to the lobster restaurant quickly."
"What's wrong?" Jiang Cheng asked. Judging from her voice, it didn't sound like there was anything wrong with his lobster restaurant. His mother seemed to be in a very cheerful mood.
Jiang's mother said, "You're a big celebrity now. Everyone's saying you've made something of yourself by running that street stall, booking up a big hotel. Your aunt and many other relatives have come over to congratulate you."
"Come here quickly, your cousin and the others are here too."
Jiang Cheng had no choice but to agree, so he said, "Okay, wait a minute."
The saying "Even a wealthy person has distant relatives" will never be wrong.
Jiang Cheng also understood this principle: once he became successful, his relatives would definitely come knocking on his door.
But these relatives haven't offended me before, and I'm not like those characters in novels who are so unappealing that everyone spits at me.
So it's only natural that these relatives would come over to celebrate after he became successful.
If I refuse, it would make me seem arrogant; it would be like putting on an act even when I have no reason to.
So I had no choice but to hang up the phone and go downstairs.
But when I left, I noticed that Su Qingrou didn't seem to be in a very high mood.
This woman doesn't usually show her emotions; she's always decisive and efficient at work, but gentle and graceful in life.
They are incredibly versatile when it comes to handling things, and each time it feels different.
She always manages to create a different character each time.
But my mood is clearly off today.
Jiang Cheng didn't ask any more questions, as his mother was waiting for him, so he left first.
Jiang Cheng parked his car in an open space across the street from the crayfish late-night snack shop.
Walk across the intersection.
From afar, I could see that the two large tables were full of familiar faces.
Uncle, aunt, cousin, and other female relatives all came.
"Hey! Jiang Cheng's here!"
"You're here, Jiang Cheng! Come here quickly, you're really amazing now!"
"Our family has finally produced a famous person!"
"Jiang Cheng, come sit here with your uncle!"
When Jiang Cheng arrived, one of them was already flushed from drinking. When they saw him coming, they all shouted enthusiastically.
He was pulled to sit down next to his uncle.
His cousin was pouring him a drink.
Just then, Jiang's mother came out of the store and saw that Jiang Cheng was already sitting at the table.
"Jiang Cheng, have a good drink with your uncle."
"Okay," Jiang Cheng said.
I raised my glass and toasted with my uncle.
There were a few elders present. Jiang Cheng was drinking beer, but his cousin didn't pour him much.
“Jiangcheng, everyone says you’re making money now, so you should learn to save money too,” Uncle said.
The aunt sitting next to me chimed in, "Yes, money comes in fast, but it goes out fast too, so you'd better hold on tight."
"Yes, I will." Jiang Cheng nodded repeatedly.
After a few drinks, his cousin pulled him up and said, "Don't sit with them. They can drink too much. Your cousins at the next table don't drink much."
Jiang Cheng smiled and politely sat down.
He's terrifying now.
I dread these trivial family matters. Now that I'm earning my own money, I'm especially sensitive. If I don't behave well, who knows what people will say about me.
One thought can be Buddha, another can be demon, so Jiang Cheng is still very careful.
However, after sitting at the next table, Jiang Cheng did drink less.
Most of them were of the same generation, and they chatted casually.
"Jiangcheng."
Just then, Jiang Cheng felt a tap on the shoulder.
Looking back, Jiang Cheng's eyes lit up.
cousin?
My aunt's eldest daughter is three years older than Jiang Cheng.
But girls mature early. When Jiang Cheng was little, he often followed his cousin around, asking her to take him out to play.
However, my cousin is a gentle, considerate, and loving person, and she didn't mind the noise in Jiangcheng when we were little.
However, after starting high school, Jiang Cheng wanted to be with Zhou Chuyao every day, so he had less contact with his cousin.
Today, my cousin was wearing a white T-shirt, a denim mini skirt, and white sneakers.
Her legs were long, shapely, and straight.
"Cousin," Jiang Cheng called out with some surprise.
"Move over there." My cousin reached out and patted the person next to Jiang Cheng.
She gave up her seat and sat down next to Jiang Cheng, her legs together.
Looking at Jiang Cheng with large eyes, she asked, "Are you going to Shanghai in a couple of days?"
“Okay, go study,” Jiang Cheng said.
I took a closer look at my cousin.
We hadn't seen each other for a long time even in our past lives, and this is the first time we've met now.
He discovered that his cousin hadn't changed much; many years later, she still looked so young.
Moreover, she always had a gentle, older sister vibe about her.
My cousin thought for a moment and said, "I heard from a friend that your company has branches all over the country."
"I'm a senior in college this year and will be starting an internship soon. I'm wondering if there are any suitable jobs available?"
My cousin's eyes flickered a little when she spoke, after all, she was asking for help and didn't know if she would refuse.
Jiang Cheng thought for a moment and said, "Then when you do your internship, come and visit Shanghai."
Jiang Cheng didn't agree immediately, after all, it wasn't up to him to decide, his cousin also needed to agree.
But my cousin's eyes lit up immediately, "Okay."
My cousin nodded, her obedient demeanor matching that of Su Qingrou.
"Jiang Cheng, come have a drink." Just then, his cousin came over with a glass of wine and said to Jiang Cheng.
My cousin picked up the wine glass on the table and clinked it with my cousin's, saying, "Jiang Cheng is still young, how can you let him drink so much? I'll drink with you."
After my cousin finished speaking, she picked up her cup and took a sip.
My cousin laughed and said, "Oh, you're actually feeling sorry for her."
"So what if I feel bad? Are you going to drink it or not?" My cousin rolled her eyes.
"Drink, drink, drink." My cousin held up his glass and could only down his drink.
"I haven't drunk with Jiang Cheng yet," my cousin said, picking up his glass.
"Drink with me too." My cousin took another sip.
Although she didn't drink much, Jiang Cheng saw his cousin's throat bobbing, so she really did drink some.
