"You said it yourself, I'm taking you seriously," Su Yurou giggled.
Lin Fan chuckled, "Of course it's true."
He dangled the bundle of *ma mi chi* he was carrying, "You get back to work, I'm going to talk to A Yue about something."
"What's this?" Su Yurou's beautiful eyes lit up, thinking he had developed a new medicine.
"Ma mi chi, a wild vegetable. You've never eaten it?"
Lin Fan sighed, "Last time A Yue helped me contact an uncle back home, and he sold the toon sprouts from my sister-in-law's village for a good price. As a result, Mengyao wouldn't let it go and insisted I sell the *ma mi chi* from Mount Luofeng too."
"Oh, I see." Su Yurou's mood was complicated.
She had a pretty good grasp of what kind of person Zheng Yue was.
A descendant of a hundred-year-old prestigious family, possessing hundreds of billions in capital.
Whether in terms of personal ability or financial strength, Zheng Yue was undoubtedly an elite among elites, standing at the pinnacle of the pyramid.
Yet, such a prominent figure was willing to help Lin Fan sell wild vegetables!
Su Yurou found it absurd.
However, she could understand it. It was solely because of Lin Fan that Zheng Yue would be willing to do such a trivial and troublesome thing.
In the corridor, Jin Peng tugged Lin Fan's arm, "Xiao Fan, who was that woman just now?"
"Which woman are you talking about?" Lin Fan asked.
"Tell me about both of them," Jin Peng, full of questions, decided to ask everything at once.
"Ms. Su is the General Manager. She used to run a beauty salon, and we have a business partnership. The other one..." Lin Fan hesitated, unsure how to introduce Zheng Yue's identity.
"Is she the boss of Borun Pharmaceutical? No way, she's so young," Jin Peng wondered inwardly. The Ms. Zheng from earlier didn't look thirty.
Even if her family was rich, it was unlikely they would hand over such a large enterprise for her to practice on.
"Probably," Lin Fan nodded silently.
Zheng Yue was the largest shareholder of Borun Pharmaceutical, so calling her the boss was not entirely wrong.
Soon, they arrived at the CEO's office.
Zheng Yue had dismissed unrelated personnel and was sitting behind her desk, applying makeup.
The female secretary was brewing tea.
Zheng Ke sat in a corner, secretly watching the Fifth Miss, guessing that Lin Fan must have arrived; only he could make the Fifth Miss so concerned about her appearance.
*Knock, knock, knock!*
Lin Fan raised his hand and knocked on the door.
"Come in," Zheng Yue immediately put away her cosmetics, a gentle and generous smile appearing on her face.
As soon as Lin Fan pushed the door open, he said, "A Yue, you look so beautiful today."
After all, he was asking for a favor, and two at that, so his attitude had to be fawning.
"What are you saying? Don't I look beautiful usually?" Zheng Yue rolled her eyes and pouted playfully.
Jin Peng's eyes widened, looking dazed, as he watched their exchange, which was like that of a couple.
No way?
Impossible, right?
"A Yue, let me introduce you. This is Jin Peng, my middle school classmate. I didn't study much, and he's one of the few friends I got along with well."
"This is... my girlfriend, Zheng Yue." Lin Fan said frankly.
Instantly, Jin Peng was dumbfounded.
Girlfriend?
Another girlfriend!
What about Section Chief Wang?
How did he find so many outstanding girlfriends?
Did he have some secret trick?
It was simply enviable!
"Stop it, we haven't officially established our relationship yet," Zheng Yue said, both pleased and shy.
"Hello, classmate Jin. Please have a seat."
"Serve tea."
Zheng Yue gestured for them to sit down and then instructed the secretary to serve tea.
Jin Peng mechanically moved his feet, his mind in a daze, forgetting where and when he was.
He sat down on the sofa with Lin Fan, feeling as if he were dreaming.
"My mom sent me a lot of snacks, I'll get them for you," Zheng Yue turned back to her desk, saying with delight.
"No need, I don't eat snacks."
"If you don't eat them, neither will he,"
Zheng Yue rolled her eyes again and went off on her own.
"Please have some tea." The elegant female secretary brought two cups of hot tea, which were fragrant and clearly of good quality and expensive.
"Thank you."
"Tha-thank you."
Jin Peng even stuttered.
He had never dared to imagine that one day he would be a distinguished guest of such a big boss.
Even more preposterous, this exceptionally beautiful woman was his classmate's girlfriend.
"Hiss!"
It wasn't until the hot tea burned his mouth that Jin Peng snapped back to reality.
"What's wrong?"
"Xiao Fan, why didn't you remind him? He just sat there doing nothing."
Zheng Yue returned with several packs of exquisite snacks and complained.
"It's fine," Jin Peng said immediately.
Then he lowered his head again, looking extremely self-conscious.
"Xiao Fan, this doesn't look like a gift for me, does it?" Zheng Yue placed the snacks on the table, her gaze naturally falling on the *ma mi chi*, and then said with displeasure.
"Why isn't it!" Lin Fan shamelessly pushed the *ma mi chi* forward, "There's nothing good in the countryside. These are fresh wild vegetables I just picked on the mountain. I brought them for you to try."
Zheng Yue was at a loss for words, "Stop lying. You want me to help you sell wild vegetables again, don't you."
She was a little frustrated. If this continued, she would eventually become a vegetable hawker.
"What do you mean 'again'? Toon sprouts aren't wild vegetables."
Lin Fan put on a fawning smile, "Help me ask again. It's all selling anyway, one or two is the same. I don't think it's difficult for your uncle. You don't even need to find the main person, just find that Manager Chen who came last time."
"I..." Zheng Yue was speechless.
A deputy general manager of Lianhua, the status difference was like heaven and earth.
How could she possibly know such a minor figure?
"Please help me out. The wild vegetables grown on the mountain in our village can provide the villagers with more income if sold," Lin Fan clasped his hands together in a pleading gesture.
He had no choice. If the *ma mi chi* couldn't be sold, Tian Mengyao would definitely not let him off.
"Alright, alright, I'll mention it again."
"But we've agreed, this is the last time."
Zheng Yue's expression was serious, and her tone was even more so, "Uncle Xie values you, that's why he's willing to fulfill your request in such small matters."
"If you use his respect for other matters, the rewards will be far greater than this," Zheng Yue added, offering a kind reminder.
"I know," Lin Fan smiled and nodded.
How could he not know? His current actions were like finally meeting the Emperor and then asking for an invincible axe to chop firewood.
But Luofeng Village was his hometown, so he had no choice but to do this.
"As long as you know. I'll help you ask later," Zheng Yue said reluctantly.
"Hurry up. Time and season wait for no one," Lin Fan was afraid she would forget about it later.
"I know, I've made a note of it," Zheng Yue glanced at the female secretary nearby and said.
Lin Fan took a deep breath and put on a fawning smile again, "A Yue, there's one more thing."
Zheng Yue's face darkened, "Are you treating me as a tool to get things done?"
"No, no, no," Lin Fan shook his head and waved his hands repeatedly, "This is a long story."
"My classmate Jin Peng, I promised to help him find a job before, but something went wrong, and now it's a bit inconvenient. See if you can..."
"Find a job?" Zheng Yue hadn't expected it to be something like this.
She looked Jin Peng up and down, making him shrink his head further into his collar.
