Can't Take My Eyes Off You

"It's reliable. He's up to the task." Lu Xingzhi turned to look at Jiang Lei and said, "Yuan City, Jin City, and Jindo City. Choose one of the three places. Those three places will ensure you have a smooth journey."

"Eh? It's exactly what Yaoyao said." Jiang Lei scratched his head. "Dad, Mom, look at Xingzhi. He thinks that my idea is feasible, so I'll resign after the New Year. In a few days, I'll go to my friend's place to get some advice and see what I need to pay attention to and where to find the goods."

Lu Xingzhi was not the kind of person who would help Jiang Lei do everything because he was Jiang Yao's older brother. He was curious about a person's abilities. If Jiang Lei had the ability, he would get someone to help Jiang Lei in the north. He would let him do business in the north without any hindrance and without being provoked. He could even help Jiang Lei with some new clients.

All of that, however, was dependent on whether Jiang Lei was capable or not. If Jiang Lei were not suitable for business, or if his temper were not good, or if his personality were not good, or if he were not brilliant. Even if he helped Jiang Lei, the man would eventually fail.

Therefore, when Jiang Lei said that he would find a friend to ask for advice and find a source of goods, Lu Xingzhi stood there without saying anything. Instead, he looked at Jiang Yao, wondering if Jiang Yao would say anything to help her brother. However, after a while, he only heard Jiang Yao say encouraging words to Jiang Lei and nothing else.

Lu Xingzhi pressed the corners of his lips, and a faint smile appeared in his heart. His wife was also quite smart.

When Jiang Lei's parents saw that Lu Xingzhi had said the same thing and heard that Jiang Lei had decided, they no longer opposed it so vehemently. Even though they were still concerned, they hoped that Jiang Lei would work hard in his hometown; however, Jiang Lei was not someone easily persuaded, so the two of them said nothing more.

It was rare for Lu Xingzhi to come home, so Mrs. Jiang told Mr. Jiang to go to the yard to catch a hen and kill it. She was ready to make a nice dinner for Lu Xingzhi and Jiang Yao.

Jiang Lei was full of energy. With the support of Jiang Yao and Lu Xingzhi, he immediately left home to find his friends. Wang Xian went to the kitchen to help Mrs. Jiang prepare dinner. Jiang Jie and Jiang Yao talked in the yard while basking in the sun as Lu Xingzhi went to the side to make a phone call.

"You've been living in the north for a few days. Are you used to it?" Jiang Jie was her eldest brother; he was concerned about whether Jiang Yao, who was afraid of the cold, could get used to life in the north. He was worried about whether she could get accustomed to the food in the north when she was there.

"I'm used to it. It's not like I just went there." Jiang Yao nodded and giggled. "I like the snow in the north. It is super beautiful. It feels excellent to see the snowy mountains in the distance when I'm in the army!"

"Winter is different from autumn." Jiang Jie smiled lightly. However, he was relieved to see that Jiang Yao did not seem to dislike the north at all. It made sense. With Lu Xingzhi's pampering of Jiang Yao, he would not let Jiang Yao live a hard life.

"If you're free, you can take Sister-in-law and Mom and Dad to Jindo City to have some fun. Go to the ancient district. The courtyard houses, as well as the places of interest, are charming. What about after the New Year?" Jiang Yao said; she became more animated as she spoke. "You haven't gone to work yet. Isn't Second Brother also preparing to go to the north? You guys can go to Jindo City together. If Lu Xingzhi is not available, I'll go to Jindo City and show you around! Furthermore, Xingzhi also has a house in Jindo City, so it's convenient to live there. I can drive, so no matter where we go to have fun, we don't have to worry about not having a car!"
