"If this goes on, won't Qin Chuan just dump her and find a new girlfriend?"
This was Li Ya's most direct thought.
Having studied abroad, she knew too well how vibrant and exciting the outside world was. Rich people never lacked beautiful women; to them, beauties were truly worthless.
"I'm really fine!"
"I was just wondering, since the coal business is so profitable, will you still go out and do business with your friends in the future?"
Li Ya concealed her inner anxiety, smiling as she spoke.
Qin Chuan didn't suspect anything. No matter how smart he was, he couldn't possibly fathom the complex emotional turmoil within a woman's heart.
"The coal business isn't that easy to get into. This time, I was just lucky to stumble upon an opportunity!"
"Who knows when I'll encounter another good opportunity!"
Qin Chuan explained.
For some reason, upon hearing Qin Chuan say this, Li Ya's tense mood eased considerably. Her face regained its radiant smile, and she tightly hugged one of Qin Chuan's arms, leaning half of her body against him.
"It's okay, opportunities are waiting to be seized!"
"Besides, we already have so many industries, which is quite a lot. Business, like many things, is about quality, not quantity!"
"As long as we focus on our real estate, supermarkets, and clothing factories, that will be enough for us to live without worry for a lifetime!"
Feeling the warmth on his arm and the pleasant scent of perfume from Li Ya, Qin Chuan began to feel restless.
He hadn't "eaten meat" in over twenty days. For a strong, virile young man, this was an immense challenge.
However, he forcefully suppressed it and said, "Sister, I'm afraid this won't work!"
"What do you mean?"
Li Ya raised her pretty face, full of confusion.
Qin Chuan told Li Ya about Ye Qingping's request for him to take over the Xinhua Electronics Factory.
"How can Magistrate Ye do this? Everyone in our county knows about the Xinhua Electronics Factory; it's on the verge of bankruptcy!"
Li Ya was furious, her pretty face turning cold.
"No, you can't take over that mess. If you're too embarrassed, I'll go talk to the magistrate tomorrow!"
"Sister, calm down, listen to me!"
Looking at Li Ya, who was raging like a tigress, Qin Chuan felt both touched and amused.
"We can't refuse Magistrate Ye's request. As merchants, you and I should understand why I'm doing this."
Qin Chuan said slowly.
Li Ya was taken aback, then she understood Qin Chuan's meaning. Her delicate eyebrows furrowed, and her face became gloomy. "Even so, we can't just do whatever Magistrate Ye says!"
"If we really take over the Xinhua Electronics Factory like this, the losses will be too great!"
"Sister, don't worry. When I went to the provincial capital this time, I also went to Shicheng City."
"I found a few key technical personnel who specialize in research and development there. With their addition, I believe the Xinhua Electronics Factory can be revitalized under my leadership."
Li Ya, who was originally anxious, was stunned. Her beautiful eyes were filled with disbelief.
"So, you started making preparations a while ago?"
Qin Chuan explained, "It's not like I started long ago. Two matters happened to coincide, and I was in Shicheng City at the time, so I poached the talent!"
"Uncle Li, Li Chunsheng, whom we met tonight, is one of those research talents!"
"Besides Li Chunsheng, there are two others!"
"Tomorrow, I'm going to see the magistrate and personally inspect the Xinhua Electronics Factory!"
Li Ya's expression was complex, as if she were lost in thought.
"Let's go, let's go home!"
The Tiger Head Ben started, and after about ten minutes, they arrived at the real estate development.
From a distance, they could see the open space outside the development lit up by car headlights. Two cars were circling, with a group of people cheering by the roadside.
"What are you guys doing?"
Qin Chuan and Li Ya got out of the car and asked.
"Boss!"
"Boss's wife!"
A group of brothers from the real estate development greeted them.
Zheng Chengdao and Chen Jinyu were both there and explained with a smile, "They're learning to drive!"
"These scoundrels! I haven't even driven the new car the boss gave me for five minutes before I was kicked out!"
Chen Jinyu grumbled indignantly.
"Brother Chen, you're already an experienced driver. Of course, we have to give such a good opportunity to our brothers!"
"Many of our brothers still don't know how to drive!"
Someone nearby called out.
Qin Chuan and Li Ya couldn't help but laugh at the scene.
"Is my eldest brother learning to drive too?"
Qin Chuan asked.
"Yes, Brother Qin is also learning to drive. Second Brother Qin is in the passenger seat giving directions."
"Dong Ge and Guang Ge are also learning to drive!"
A brother immediately replied.
"Alright then, you guys keep practicing. Make sure the brothers drive safely. We'll be heading back first!"
Qin Chuan took Li Ya's hand and got into the Tiger Head Ben.
"Xiao Chuan, aren't we staying here tonight?"
Li Ya couldn't help but whisper.
"With these brats making noise downstairs, do you think it's appropriate?"
Qin Chuan winked at Li Ya.
Li Ya's pretty face blushed, and she secretly pinched him.
"We'll go back to your place to stay tonight!"
Li Ya obediently replied with a "hmm."
A little over fifteen minutes later, they arrived at Li Ya's small two-story house. This place held many traces of their passionate encounters, though they hadn't stayed there frequently recently.
"I've turned on the water heater. It'll take a while before we can shower!"
"Xiao Chuan, you sit down first. I'll heat up some water and make you some tea. You drank a lot tonight..."
Li Ya busied herself like a virtuous wife. Her graceful figure, as she walked past, brought waves of fragrance.
Qin Chuan sat on the sofa, lit a cigarette, and quietly watched the scene.
If he could spend his life with such a woman, many men would wake up smiling in their dreams. However, he was somewhat greedy, somewhat of a scoundrel!
Li Ya was naturally no exception, let alone Teacher Yang. Proud as she was, she would absolutely not share a man with other women.
Therefore, Qin Chuan felt he should plan for the future now, working hard to earn a lot of money.
Only when wealth and social status reached a certain level could one enjoy those special privileges.
"Sister, come here for a moment!"
While planning his future in his mind, Qin Chuan couldn't help but call out to the busy Li Ya.
"What is it?"
Li Ya, who was cleaning dust in the house, ran out holding a cleaning cloth.
As Li Ya approached, he directly thrust the card into the area of holy light, causing Li Ya to gasp and retreat.
But Qin Chuan put on a devilish smile and said with wicked charm, "Beauty, this card has one million in it!"
"Tonight, remember to serve grandpa comfortably, understand?!"
