Chapter 198 - 198: Buying Shares
After dropping Lin Jiajun off at the hospital, Lin Feng drove away. He told his cousins they would discuss the new store's renovation after he found a designer, and they had no objections to his decision.When Lin Jiajun returned to the hospital room, he was in a complete daze. He was still thinking about the shop!
At the hospital, Wang Lu had a natural birth and would be discharged in three days. For now, Lin Jiajun was staying with his wife while her mother looked after the baby. Third Aunt would cook their meals at home, and Lin Daan would drive over to deliver them.
Lin Jiajun snapped out of his daze and hurried over to his wife's bedside, his face beaming with excitement.
"Honey, you know how An Min and I have been busy with the new branch store?"
Wang Lu looked surprised, but then she perked up. "Right. Didn't you say Lin Feng wasn't satisfied with any of the locations you picked? Did you go out with him today to look at storefronts? Judging by how happy you are, you must have found a place."
Lin Jiajun gave her a mysterious smile. "We found one. Guess where?"
Wang Lu rolled her eyes at him. "Mei City is huge. How am I supposed to know where it is?"
He chuckled, deliberately playing coy. "I'll give you a hint. It's in the Yuhuali area." He emphasized the word 'Yuhuali' to see if she would catch on.
Wang Lu tried to picture the area around Yuhuali but grew impatient after a moment. "Stop beating around the bush. Yuhuali is huge, so how would I know? Just tell me!"
Lin Jiajun grinned like a fool. "Inside Yuhuali. The eighth floor."
Wang Lu was stunned. "Really? That place is incredibly expensive! Even if you have the money, you need connections to rent a storefront there!"
"It's true," Lin Jiajun nodded.
She took a deep breath. "So how did Lin Feng manage it? Does he know someone important?"
ics, and his eldest aunt was asleep. Yu Zheng gave Lin Feng a look, motioning for him to sit down for a moment before calling out, "Sun Rou."
Only then did Sun Rou notice their guest. She quickly stood up to greet him. "Have a seat. I'll go cut some watermelon."
Lin Feng sat down and asked the boy, "Chuan Chuan, what are you learning?"
"Phonetics."
"That's great!" Lin Feng nodded.
Sun Rou returned with a plate of watermelon. "Here, have some. This one is really sweet."
Lin Feng took a slice and had a bite. "It is sweet indeed."
"Didn't you guys say you were opening a branch? Have you found a location yet?" Sun Rou asked.
"We have."
Yu Zheng, having finished his call, came over. "That's great news."
Lin Feng smiled. "That's actually why I'm here. I wanted to ask if Brother Yu would be interested in investing in the branch."
Yu Zheng had been tempted for a while, but he didn't know how to bring it up since Lin Feng hadn't approached him. He answered immediately, "Of course, I'm in!"
Lin Feng smiled. "In that case, you should probably wait a few more days before heading back. Once Wang Lu is out of the hospital and Lin Jiajun is free, we can all discuss the investment details."
Yu Zheng thought for a moment. He could certainly wait a few days. "No problem."
"Alright, I'll get going then," Lin Feng said as he stood up. "I need to find a designer these next few days to get the plans started."
Before heading home, Lin Feng called Boss Luo, the designer who had done his restaurants in Yangcheng. Lin Feng had been very pleased with every aspect of his work. As soon as Boss Luo heard there was a store of several hundred square meters that needed designing, he immediately promised to buy a ticket and come over on a high-speed train. He said he would bring his designer along so they could survey and measure the site that very evening.
Lin Feng was very satisfied with his efficiency.
When he arrived home, Zhang Yuxi and the babies all came over to greet him.
"Oh, Daddy's home!"
Lin Feng went over, gave Zhang Yuxi a kiss, and then hugged each of his children in turn. "Come, let Daddy give you all a hug. That's right, Daddy loves you the most! Did you miss me while I was out?" He revealed four sets of small animal toys he had bought, much to the babies' delight.
"Honey…" Lin Feng then took out a lipstick. "This is a gift for you!"
Zhang Yuxi hadn't expected to get a gift herself. She opened it and saw it was the lipstick she always used.
"I saw your other one was almost used up, so I bought you a new one," he explained. He knew that women could be particular about their lipstick, as there were so many different colors and types. Afraid of buying a color she wouldn't like, he just got the same shade she had been using.
"Darling, thank you! You're the best!"
Lin Feng hugged her. "A single lipstick makes you this happy?" She's so easy to please!
Zhang Yuxi smiled brightly. "Anything my husband gives me makes me happy!"
