CHAPTER 1110: CHAPTER 1111: THE FOURTH YOUNG MASTER MEETS A LOVE RIVAL

After lunch, they continued the meeting, discussing the proposal to set up a distribution point in Guangcheng.

Since Wang Bo had participated in the research, Cheng Su intended to train him, so she asked him to write a planning report. If there were no major issues, Wang Bo was expected to pioneer this distribution point in the future.

This pioneering opportunity meant a promotion to distribution manager, essentially a raise, so Wang Bo was very excited and repeatedly promised to write it well.

Cheng Su encouraged everyone a bit more before ending the meeting. She noticed Xiao Ya and didn’t forget to ask her what was going on with Xiao Pinshan at lunch.

The question caught her off guard. It turned out that Xiao Ya and Ning Ge were playing around too intimately, which made Xiao Pinshan jealous and unhappy.

Ying Xiaoya blushed and said, "I didn’t expect this outcome. He just said that seeing us behave like that made him feel uneasy."

Cheng Su laughed, unable to cry or laugh: "We are all very good friends, and we knew each other before him. Didn’t you tell him?"

"I did, I told him everything. He just said he didn’t like me getting too close to other men. To put it bluntly, he’s just anxious about me!" Ying Xiaoya said shyly and sweetly.

Cheng Su, however, became serious: "And what’s your view on this? Are you going to follow his thoughts and not be friends with guys, including Ning Ge?"

"No, of course not, but maybe I’ll keep some distance!" Ying Xiaoya tilted her head and said.

"Keeping some distance is necessary, but first, it should be your own idea and not because of him. Should you distance yourself from your male friends? Do you and Ning Ge have anything improper going on? Xiao Ya, even when in love, don’t completely submit to a man’s whims. If he tells you what to do, will you just do it? If so, you will lose yourself!" Cheng Su said solemnly.

Ying Xiaoya was stunned, feeling a bit wronged: "Is it that serious?"

"If in a relationship you lose your true self because of it, bending over backward, then I suggest you withdraw early, because it’s too tiring and will drain all your enthusiasm," Cheng Su said. "My dear friend Xiao Ya is an innocent, kind, lively, and cheerful girl, strong and optimistic. I don’t want you to become a resentful woman."

Ying Xiaoya stood there, dazed.

Cheng Su patted her on the shoulder and prepared to leave.

"Wait for me." Ning Ge caught up and said, "I’m going to your place for dinner tonight. I have something to discuss with Big Brother Qi."

"Oh!"

Ning Ge waved to Ying Xiaoya, and the two left side by side.

Ying Xiaoya watched them disappear at the gate, suddenly feeling a sense of loneliness and an inexplicable urge to cry.

She suddenly remembered the days before the jam factory opened, chatting and laughing with Ning Ge and Cheng Su at the restaurant—those were truly happy times.

But now, she felt like an outsider!

Ning Ge asked Cheng Su why Ying Xiaoya looked so bewildered just now.

Cheng Su looked at him sympathetically and said, "Poor child, you’ve become someone’s perceived romantic rival!"

"What?" Ning Ge was taken aback.

Cheng Su explained why Xiao Pinshan was having a tiff with Xiao Ya.

Ning Ge looked as if he had been struck by lightning and said, "I’ve been wronged. I wasn’t being playful and intimate with her!"

Cheng Su still patted his shoulder sympathetically and said, "That’s why if you had paired up with Xiao Ya earlier, wouldn’t there be no issues today?"

With that, she walked towards the bus stop, leaving Ning Ge standing there completely perplexed.

Xiao Pinshan saw him as a romantic rival? No wonder Xiao Pinshan had been casting unfriendly glances at him!

Unbelievable! He’s the boss, for crying out loud!
