"Oh, I almost forgot to remind you of something important. You have to pay for the wine. Don't forget it. After all, Sister Xu works hard alone to run this small shop. You can imagine how hard it is. We shouldn't be greedy for small gains, and we shouldn't let Sister Xu suffer losses, right?"

"So, if you have free time in the future, you must lead those good brothers from our purchasing department to come here frequently and do your best to support Sister Xu's livelihood. You must remember this matter deeply in your mind and never forget it!" The person who spoke warned earnestly.

Upon hearing this, Han Chunming hurriedly nodded in agreement. An extremely sincere smile instantly blossomed on his honest face. He quickly responded, "Brother, you can rest assured and put your heart at ease! For such a trivial matter, my heart is as clear and flawless as a mirror!"

"You should go back safely first. If you delay your return home for a few more hours, I'm afraid your sister-in-law will be worried about you!" After he finished speaking, he stood up suddenly, stretched out his right hand, and waved it gently towards Li Dongyu, expressing his farewell.

Seeing this, Li Dongyu's face was gloomy and he didn't say a word. He walked towards the account counter with steady and powerful steps. As the distance got closer, his eyes naturally met Xu Huizhen who was standing behind the account counter.

The two people's eyes met, just for a moment, but it seemed as if thousands of words were flowing in it. Li Dongyu nodded slightly, nodded gently to Xu Huizhen, saying hello, and then turned around resolutely and walked away without any hesitation.

On the other side, Xu Huizhen stared at Li Dongyu's receding back from beginning to end, without blinking, for fear of missing any details. The tall and straight figure became smaller and smaller and more blurred in her eyes, but she still refused to look away, as if as long as she kept looking, the person would not really go far away.

Until the end, Li Dongyu's figure completely disappeared from her sight, and no trace of him could be seen anymore. Xu Huizhen then slowly withdrew her gaze, and an indescribable sense of loss surged in her heart.

But who could have expected this? Just as she slowly retracted her gaze, before she even had a chance to catch her breath, a dark shadow suddenly flashed before her eyes. She looked closely and found that Han Chunming had quietly arrived at the account counter like a ghost. This sudden situation was like a bolt from the blue, catching Xu Huizhen, who had no precautions at all, off guard, and her heart instantly rose to her throat.

In an instant, a terrified scream resounded through the sky: "Ah... You are going to kill me, Chunming! How can you be like a ghost, walking without making any sound? You suddenly appeared out of nowhere and scared me to death!" At this time, Xu Huizhen's face was pale, and she covered her chest tightly with one hand. Her pounding heart seemed to be about to burst out of her chest at any time. Her beautiful eyes were full of anger and fear, staring fiercely at the hateful guy in front of her who frightened her.

Han Chunming was seen scratching his head with a simple and slightly mischievous smile on his face. He kept laughing and said, "Sister Xu, please don't blame me! You can only blame yourself for being too engrossed in watching things!"

Hearing this, Xu Huizhen's eyebrows were raised, her beautiful eyes were wide open, and she stared at the other person fiercely. Her sharp eyes were like a burning flame, as if she wanted to devour the person in front of her in an instant. She opened her red lips and retorted unhappily: "Humph! You guys only know how to talk nonsense! Don't be so slick in front of me! Tell me the truth, why did you suddenly bring people here to drink today? And what is your relationship with the person who came with you?"

Facing Xu Huizhen's questioning, Han Chunming, who was originally smiling, seemed to be cast a spell and immediately restrained the smile on his face. He lowered his voice and said carefully: "Sister Xu, you don't know that there have been some changes in the purchasing department of our factory recently. That person is not only my senior brother, but also my immediate superior, and even more so, a big shot in our steel mill! Look, he is worried about these things. As for what exactly it is, even if I ask him again and again, he is unwilling to tell me completely."

After saying this, Han Chunming couldn't help but laugh secretly in his heart, and that smile was as cunning as a cat that had successfully stolen fish. He thought to himself: "Hey, look at my perfect acting skills, people who don't know the truth might really be fooled by me and mistakenly think that I am hiding some unspeakable secret in my heart!"

Xu Huizhen, who was standing aside at this time, nodded slightly, as if thinking about something. A trace of doubt flashed in her intelligent eyes, but she soon regained her composure. She said softly, "So that's how it is. However, the things in your purchasing department are too complicated and tedious. As a woman, I really don't understand them. But as long as these things don't cause you too much trouble and distress, it's fine."

Hearing this, Han Chunming patted his chest and assured Xu Huizhen: "Sister Xu, don't worry! No matter what difficulties and challenges I encounter, I can handle them with ease. Besides, every time I come to your place, I can enjoy such rich and delicious food and wine. Even if I have a lot of troubles, I will throw them all away!" As he said that, a brilliant smile appeared on his face, as if he had forgotten all his troubles.

Xu Huizhen raised her lips and said coquettishly, "Oh, look at your little mouth, it's like honey, you are getting better and better at making people happy!" Just then, there was a sound of footsteps at the door. It turned out that several new customers came into the store. Xu Huizhen quickly put away her smile, greeted them warmly, and turned to Han Chunming and said, "Okay, Chunming, you see so many customers coming at once, I have to be busy for a while. You, don't waste time here, go back and have a good rest."
