Chapter 399: Chapter 398: A Chance Encounter
Tao Cuizhu heard what Mo Ping said and quickly replied, "Manager, you don’t have to give us special treatment. Just treat us like everyone else, or others might have opinions."
Cao Panpan and the others also said, "Yeah, exactly, treat us like everyone else, no need for special arrangements."
Seeing that the little boss’s classmates were all down-to-earth girls, Mo Ping couldn’t help but nod in his heart. It seemed like he could be a lot less worried. And since they were all college students, it would definitely be easier to manage them. As expected, the little boss was impressive, recruiting so many college students into the factory at once.
At this moment, Yiyi said from the side, "Alright then, let Mo Ping take you to get familiar with the workplace, and Cuizhu can go directly back to her previous position."
"Okay."
Cao Panpan, Wei Xiwen, and Feng Yudan all responded enthusiastically.
Seeing their enthusiasm, Yiyi covered her mouth, laughing. She didn’t return home but stayed in the factory to start refining medicine pills.
In the evening, Yiyi ordered dinner for Tao Cuizhu and the others. Seeing them planning to stay there, she said goodbye, "I’ll come back tomorrow, you guys get used to working here."
"Yiyi, go home without worry. We’ll wake up on time for work tomorrow morning."
Cao Panpan just joined the factory today. Although she didn’t understand much at first, by the afternoon, she felt she had a basic understanding and was ready to work hard and learn more practical experience.
"Little boss, don’t worry. I’m here, so your roommates will be safe for sure. Besides, we have people sent by Master Guo here too."
Since the last incident with Tao Cuizhu, Yiyi had strengthened the factory’s security. In addition to hiring more security personnel, she had Master Guo Ming send several people from the Yin sect to guard the place, so she wasn’t too worried. "Alright, then I’ll head back."
Taking advantage of the early evening, Yiyi went to the street, bought the beef her grandpa loved, and the red bean cake her mother liked, and was about to head back when she turned around and saw Wei Zhirong approaching.
"Yiyi, it’s really you. I almost thought I was mistaken."
Seeing Wei Zhirong, Yiyi was also delighted, "Zhirong, what are you doing here?"
"I’ve been on break recently, so I went for a walk. I didn’t expect to run into you. Are you here to shop?"
Upon hearing this, Yiyi smiled and said, "Yeah, I came to buy some food."
Speaking of food, Wei Zhirong instantly invited, "Yiyi, let’s go for a picnic next weekend. I heard from my brother that they might have a break next weekend, so we should go together. It’ll be fun."
Yiyi smiled and replied, "Sure, let’s do that."
"Alright, it’s settled then. I’ll also invite Er Ya and her partner, so the six of us can have fun for two days." Wei Zhirong excitedly planned, eager to set off immediately.
"If Tingyu and the others really have a break, then we’ll have a great two-day outing."
"Alright, then let’s see if my brother and Tingyu have time," Wei Zhirong said before taking Yiyi to buy more things. "Since we’re going for a picnic, we have to prepare the food and everything."
Hearing this, Yiyi couldn’t help but chuckle, "Isn’t it too early to buy now? We have to wait until Tingyu’s break time is confirmed; then we’ll have time to shop."
"Alright, let’s get in touch then."
Only then did Wei Zhirong not rush to buy things but still dragged Yiyi along to buy some snacks before stopping, "Yiyi, I’ve taken up your time. Go home now, I will too."
"Okay."
Upon hearing this, Yiyi smiled and replied.
When Yiyi got home, Ding Yuejun was already back. Seeing her daughter had bought her favorite red bean cake, she said, "Next time, don’t go out of your way to buy it. If I want it, I’ll get it after work."
"Mom, I just got it while I was out."
Yiyi smiled and said, then took out the beef, prepared it, and plated it, "Grandpa can have this with a little drink tonight."
Just then, Mr. Ding came in from outside and, seeing the beef Yiyi was holding, couldn’t stop smiling, "Our Yiyi is the best, always thinking of grandpa."
Seeing Mr. Ding so happy, Yiyi also smiled.
In the end, the family happily had dinner together.
The next Sunday, Yiyi received a call from Gu Tingyu. It turned out that Wei Zhirong had already called Wei Zixiao about the picnic, and they could indeed rest next weekend.
"Yiyi, let’s go have some fun by then."
Gu Tingyu didn’t expect Wei Zhirong would organize a picnic suddenly, but thinking about going out with the girls, he thought it was a great idea.
Hearing this, Yiyi smiled and said, "Alright, we’ll go together then. I’ll call Zhirong later."
"Good, but no rush. Let’s chat a bit first, Yiyi, I’ve been missing you."
Gu Tingyu hadn’t seen the girl in days and missed her greatly.
Yiyi, hearing the tenderness in Gu Tingyu’s words, blushed slightly and quietly responded, "I miss you too."
Hearing the girl’s soft voice, Gu Tingyu’s heart melted, "I’ll come find you next weekend."
"Okay..."
The two talked slowly, even if their conversation was trivial, it felt never-ending. Eventually, Gu Tingyu had to hang up because he was urged on his side.
Seeing her daughter still bright-eyed after the call, Ding Yuejun couldn’t help but tease, "Missing Tingyu so much, invite him over for dinner next time he’s free."
Hearing her mother’s teasing, Yiyi blushed a little and said, "We’re planning to go on a picnic next week. Zhirong and Er Ya will all go, and we might be out for two days."
Upon hearing this, Ding Yuejun nodded, "That’s great. I’ll help you prepare some food. Since it’s a picnic, you need to bring plenty."
Yiyi quickly said, "Mom, I can buy it myself later."
"I’ll do it. I’m better at cooking, so I’ll choose better ingredients than you."
Hearing her mother say this, Yiyi chuckled, "Thanks, Mom."
"It’s no trouble at all. I’m more than happy to do it."
Ding Yuejun took this to heart and, two days later, started to slowly shop around, planning to prepare more for her daughter and friends. During her shopping, she unexpectedly bumped into Wei Hanliang.
"Didn’t expect to really see you here. Are you shopping too?"
