CHAPTER 782: CHAPTER 784: THERE IS AN AFFINITY

"He’s going to South City?" Xu Nianhua thought he must have heard wrong.

Pei Yining also looked at Pei Yicheng with a puzzled face, saying, "Brother, has he really forgotten everything about Zou Yaru?" Her tone even rose a few notches. She clearly remembered it seemed like the end of the world when Cheng Hao and Zou Yaru broke up.

"Yes, he wants to go home to visit his grandfather, and by the way, discuss with Aunt Ji about setting up the Chili Sauce Factory in Ningbei," Pei Yicheng explained. Establishing the Chili Sauce Factory in Ningbei was inevitable and had to be expedited.

This way, they wouldn’t need to haul goods all the way from South City, and the costs saved would be considerable.

"Oh, that’s true," Xu Nianhua knew roughly. Cheng Hao was in charge of selling the chili sauce and also managed the Liunian hand cream and perfumes. He handled all the sales of the hand cream and perfumes.

The next day, Xu Nianhua left home early. It was a day for study summation.

Xu Nianhua, Fang Yuan, Yao Xinping, and Zhuo Xiaolin, all four of them had to write out the experiences and shortcomings of their recent reception duties for Professor Fei’s review.

The half-month of practical experience had improved everyone. For questions they didn’t understand, they would ask each other first. If still unclear, they would then ask Professor Fei for an explanation.

After such a day, Xu Nianhua felt that she had learned a lot more knowledge and also grew to like the subject of languages even more.

"Nianhua."

Professor Fei waited until everyone had packed up and left before calling out to Xu Nianhua.

"Professor Fei."

Xu Nianhua put her well-organized notes on the table and asked, "Is there anything else, Professor Fei?"

"Here’s the thing. Wanru would like to invite you to dinner." As soon as Professor Fei finished, Su Xi ran in from outside and asked, "Mom, when are you free?"

Upon seeing Xu Nianhua, Su Xi’s eyes lit up immediately and said, "Nianhua, long time no see."

"Long time no see." Xu Nianhua greeted with a smile and turned to Professor Fei, saying, "Professor Fei, let’s skip the meal. I still need to pack up at home. I’m going back to South City tomorrow."

"Go on, my aunt is a very nice person. I’ve heard her talk about you several times; she really likes you," Su Xi said excitedly. She admired Xu Nianhua, and the fact that her family liked her too made her feel very confident in her judgment. She whispered, "You know, ever since I was young, aside from me, my aunt hasn’t been close to any other girl our age."

Xu Nianhua looked at Su Xi with a bit of surprise, feeling that there was probably more to the story behind these words.

"Did you know? My aunt was supposed to have a daughter," Su Xi whispered to Xu Nianhua confidentially, so quietly that even Professor Fei couldn’t hear. She said, "Unfortunately, the child died as soon as she was born. So, my aunt has been unable to bear seeing girls our age, except for me. I’m the only one she likes."

"Oh no, now I need to include you too."

Su Xi was here on a mission, having promised her aunt that she would bring Xu Nianhua along.

"Look, it’s not often that my aunt takes such a liking to someone; just one meal, you won’t be so mean as to refuse, right?" Su Xi looked at Xu Nianhua with pleading eyes, as if refusing would be a great misdeed.
