It was clear that Bai Yiling had already negotiated the price of the deep-sea fish with Liu Xinyue, otherwise Liu Xinyue wouldn't have sent the money so quickly.
His goddess was a warrior in the business world, so Cheng Xiaofan had to worry less about many things.
By the time they arrived at Luo Yang's home, Qian Shulan had already finished stewing the old chicken soup and placed it on the table.
Upon seeing Cheng Xiaofan, Sakai Kyoko nervously stood up from the table, her face red, and exclaimed, "Mas... Xiaofan-ge, Kyoko greets you!"
She almost blurted out "Master" again.
If she had actually called him Master, it would have been difficult to explain.
It was evident that Sakai Kyoko was trying hard to integrate into the life circle of Zhuxi Village.
This also fully indicated that her father, Sakai Ichiro, had thoroughly broken her heart.
Especially with the appearance of Matsuki Chiyoko in Jinbao Town this time, it had likely left an indelible scar on her psyche.
"Kyoko, you're calling me the wrong way. Xiaofan is younger than me. You should call him Xiaofan, just like I do!" Luo Yang quickly corrected her.
Sakai Kyoko stole a glance at Cheng Xiaofan and said, "No, Mr. Cheng is two years older than me. I must call him ge!"
"Fine, I don't have any opinion on how you call me!"
Luo Yang pointed to Bai Yiling and solemnly introduced her to Sakai Kyoko, "This is President Bai, Xiaofan's girlfriend. She is helping me develop Zhuxi Village!"
"She is not only the goddess in Xiaofan's heart but also the goddess of our entire Zhuxi Village!"
Sakai Kyoko had already seen Bai Yiling in Cheng Xiaofan's live broadcast videos. She bowed deeply to her and said, "Kyoko greets Goddess Bai!"
"Miss Kyoko, you don't need to be so polite. Just call me Sister Bai!" Bai Yiling said with a smile.
Sakai Kyoko bowed deeply again and said, "Thank you, Sister Bai!"
"Kyoko, try the chicken soup my mom stewed first!" Luo Yang quickly picked up Sakai Kyoko's bowl and served her a bowl of chicken soup.
He also gave her a chicken leg.
"Thank you, Yang-ge!"
Sakai Kyoko's sentence immediately made Luo Yang flustered, "You're welcome, you're welcome!"
"Kyoko, how is my aunt's steamed grouper?" Qian Shulan immediately picked a piece of grouper and put it into the bowl of her imagined daughter-in-law.
"Thank you, Auntie!"
Sakai Kyoko bowed deeply to Qian Shulan again.
This mother and son had never experienced such etiquette!
"Oh my, Kyoko, you... if you keep doing this, you'll be making me feel too old to bear it!" Qian Shulan trembled with excitement, almost unable to speak coherently.
Cheng Xiaofan and Bai Yiling exchanged glances.
They both felt like they were superfluous in this situation!
"Sorry, Xiaofan, President Bai, try my mom's stewed old chicken soup!" Luo Yang quickly beckoned to Cheng Xiaofan and Bai Yiling.
Qian Shulan also busied herself, saying, "Yes, yes, yes, Xiaoyang, you and President Bai try it!"
She then rushed to the kitchen and brought the steamed grouper to the table.
Sakai Kyoko was a smart girl and could read the situation. She stood up from the table and followed Qian Shulan into the kitchen.
Cheng Xiaofan nodded at Luo Yang and said with a smile, "Brother Luo, it seems that Kyoko has a good impression of you!"
"Being handsome definitely has its advantages!"
Luo Yang, with his honest nature, blushed at Cheng Xiaofan's words, "Xiaofan, don't make fun of me. I feel like I'm really not worthy of Kyoko!"
Cheng Xiaofan smiled and said, "There's nothing you're not worthy of. Don't be discouraged. First, you need to have some confidence!"
As they were talking, Sakai Kyoko and Qian Shulan came out of the kitchen with several more dishes.
During the meal, Bai Yiling asked Sakai Kyoko, "Kyoko, what did you study at Harvard?"
Sakai Kyoko replied, "Answering President Bai, I studied Business Administration!"
"Very good!"
Bai Yiling smiled and said, "We are currently planning the company group's matters, and we need talented people like you. Please join our team!"
Upon hearing this, Sakai Kyoko excitedly stood up and bowed deeply to Bai Yiling again, saying, "Thank you for your trust, President Bai, thank you, President Bai!"
Bai Yiling smiled and said, "From now on, we are on the same team. No need for so much formality!"
The meal lasted until past two in the afternoon.
When they left Luo Yang's home, Bai Yiling couldn't help but sigh, "Xiaofan, this Sakai Kyoko is really amazing. She speaks the Chinese language so fluently!"
Cheng Xiaofan listened and couldn't help but smile faintly, "Obviously, her father intentionally wanted to train her to be an expert on China."
"I suspect his father, Sakai Kazuo, has impure motives. He must have set his sights on China long ago!"
Bai Yiling chuckled, "If he knew his daughter had settled in Zhuxi Village, he'd probably be furious!"
"What worries me is whether this Sakai Kazuo will come to Zhuxi Village and forcibly take his daughter away from here!"
Cheng Xiaofan listened and said with great confidence, "He won't come. With me here, he wouldn't dare to come!"
If he came, he'd clearly be asking for a beating.
"Xiaofan, Sakai Kyoko is from Sakura Country after all. How will her household registration in Zhuxi Village be resolved?" Bai Yiling brought up a substantive issue.
Cheng Xiaofan laughed heartily, "Goddess Bai, don't worry about that. I know you value Sakai Kyoko as a talented person, and what you said is very easy to handle."
"In a couple of days, I'll make a call and have Director Dao directly handle it."
"After all, behind me, there is Lu Shengming from the Jianghu Affairs Bureau. According to the principle of special cases being handled specially, there's nothing they can't solve!"
"..."
Bai Yiling looked at this man speechlessly.
What he said was the truth and beyond doubt.
"Xiaofan, you're amazing!"
As his woman, a compliment was in order!
But as soon as the words left her mouth, Bai Yiling remembered their soul fusion in the dragon boat. Did this compliment have some problematic implication?
Fortunately, Cheng Xiaofan didn't think too much about it.
"Yiling, accompany me to Grandpa Luo's place. I want to discuss with him the matter of contracting White Python Lake, Lotus Lake, and the Terraced Mountains."
Cheng Xiaofan said, "After all, those places were once beneficial to the residents. The Terraced Mountains were also developed by the soldiers of Eastern Wu. If there are no proper procedures, and others see me profiting from the resources there, I'm afraid some people will become envious!"
Hearing this, Bai Yiling nodded repeatedly, "You're right. This contract must be signed to avoid unnecessary future conflicts."
Cheng Xiaofan added, "Also, prepare a helicopter for me tomorrow. I want to take Grandpa Luo and some village elders to see White Python Lake!"
Bai Yiling smiled, "I'll prepare two. Mom and Dad have also been talking about White Python Lake. They are very curious about the place where their ancestors once lived. Let's take them to see it on this occasion!"
"Mmm-hmm, okay, it's up to your arrangement!" Cheng Xiaofan immediately agreed.
If his parents wanted to go, he had to support them.
His goddess really thought things through!
