CHAPTER 952: CHAPTER 953: NO BOAT TO BOARD AFTER SUZHOU

Cheng Su and Ying Xiaoya returned to the office, and Xiao Pinshan glanced at Ying Xiaoya, noticing her eyes were red like a rabbit’s. His eyebrows furrowed, and his lips pressed into a line.

"Manager Xiao, let’s talk about this month’s report!" Cheng Su didn’t miss Xiao Pinshan’s look and called him over.

Xiao Pinshan responded and brought over a stack of report materials, beginning to report to Cheng Su.

No matter Xiao Pinshan’s emotional intelligence, Cheng Su was very satisfied with his work capability. Even when she and Ning Ge weren’t around, he handled things in an orderly way, which was reassuring.

"Does Friendly want to come to our company for a technical exchange?" Cheng Su listened to Xiao Pinshan and was momentarily taken aback.

"Yes, President Cheng, do you think we should refuse?" Xiao Pinshan asked. A technical exchange, if not handled well, could leak their own secrets and such.

Cheng Su smiled, "No need to refuse, let them come. Exchanges between peers are common. Tell Xiao Zhu and them to keep it under control."

Xiao Pinshan noted it down in his notebook.

Cheng Su glanced again at the sales report and was a bit surprised to see that this month’s jam sales profit was highest from cherry jam.

This jam was the most expensive one sold by their company, and it was unexpected for it to be so high, which was quite surprising.

"Now cherry season has long passed, and what’s left are stock from the fruit warehouses, so there’s not much jam produced, making it in demand," Xiao Pinshan explained.

Cheng Su smiled slightly, "Indeed, rarity makes things precious."

Xiao Pinshan agreed wholeheartedly.

"It’s almost December, and now is the cherry off-season, but our business can’t afford an off-season. Next year’s goods should be ordered early from the suppliers to avoid them raising prices and causing a rush. It’s better to pay more deposit to ensure our supply," Cheng Su said.

"Understood!" Xiao Pinshan had complete confidence in Cheng Su’s instructions, and he noted them all down.

Cheng Su asked a few more questions, including about newly joined distributors, among other things, ensuring all work was clearly explained.

Just as Xiao Pinshan was putting away his notebook and about to leave, Cheng Su stopped him again.

"Is your daughter eight? Attending primary school now?"

Xiao Pinshan, who had just started to stand up, sat back down and said, "She’s nine this year, in third grade. The little girl is quite introverted."

"Children from single-parent families are often more sensitive. You also need to pay attention to her education. No matter how busy work gets, don’t neglect your child’s growth. If you really can’t manage, consider getting another assistant to help," Cheng Su said with a smile.

"Thank you for your concern, President Cheng. I’ll consider that," Xiao Pinshan replied gratefully.

"Children need to grow up in a sound family environment. Manager Xiao, you really need to think carefully whether it’s time to give your child a complete family," Cheng Su added, "Of course, in life, the most important thing is to be true to your heart. Manager Xiao, you’re a wise person. Engaging in deceitful actions is really something you should avoid."

Xiao Pinshan stared at her blankly.

Cheng Su smiled gently, stood up, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "Manager Xiao, there’s a saying in Guangdong that after Suzhou, there are no boats to take, meaning if you miss this village, there’s no inn. Think it over!"

Xiao Pinshan frowned.

He looked over and saw Cheng Su walking to Ying Xiaoya’s side, discussing what clothes to wear for a social gathering and how to dress up.

Watching Ying Xiaoya’s smile, a sudden dull ache hit Xiao Pinshan’s heart, and he tightly pursed his lips and looked away.

He left the office as if fleeing, failing to notice the gaze that followed him from Ying Xiaoya.
