Back To The 80s: President's Doted Wife

Chapter 1242: Chapter 1243: It’s Not Easy for Anyone

Qiulan listened to Cheng Su’s words, and couldn’t help but feel stirred in her heart, her throat also a bit choked: ”I know, I can’t relax either!”

Cheng Su patted her on the shoulder, and said: ”Speaking of which, back when it was just the two of us running Joy Soon Loy, busying about, buying, chopping, cooking, selling food, all done by ourselves, how tough were those times!”

Qiulan recalled those days, wasn’t it just like that?

”Look at it now!” Cheng Su pointed at the coming and going customers and waiters, and said: ”Now we don’t have to do it all ourselves, there’s a clear division of labor, the level has gone up more than a notch, and the girls below all call you Sister Lan, isn’t that something?”

Qiulan shook her head, choked with emotion: ”It’s not easy, Sister Su, these two years, it hasn’t been easy for me, and even harder for you. Sister Su, I’m grateful to you, you gave me such a platform.”

”I can give you the platform, but you have to stand on it.” Cheng Su said with a smile: ”Keep pushing forward, you’re only twenty-one now, as long as you are willing to learn and fight, your future achievements will far surpass this small manager position.”

Qiulan was excited, nodding her head vigorously.

”Alright, after just a few words, you’re tearing up, so promising!” Cheng Su couldn’t help but tease her, then remembered Old Song’s inquiry, and said: ”Right, you and Xiao Jiang...”

”Sister Su!” Qiulan blushed, stomped her foot playfully.

Song Xiaojang used to have a secret crush on her, but it later turned into an open affection, especially after he learned that two young men in the kitchen had an eye on Qiulan, he couldn’t hold back anymore, his crush became overt, just shy of declaring this girl was his, and no one else could snatch her away.

”I think Xiao Jiang is not bad. You know, this restaurant, they also have a share of stock in it, the family background is quite decent. You are familiar with each other, working in the same place, knowing each other well. As for Old Song, well, you know, he’s an unremarkably kind and open-minded person, where could you find such a father-in-law?” Cheng Su sincerely said: ”We women, having a job is economic independence, then finding someone understanding to live with, and maybe someday have a child, that would be perfect!”

”If you keep talking, I might just ignore you!”

”Alright, alright, I won’t say anymore, as long as you know it in your heart. I just think Xiao Jiang is quite nice, give it some thought.” Cheng Su patted her on the shoulder, and brushed past her as she walked away.

Qiulan bit her lip where she stood, then chased after her.

After thorough checks everywhere, once the lunch session was over, none of the restaurant staff took a break, they all got busy, setting tables, spreading tablecloths, placing wine glasses and dishware.

On the second floor, in the middle of the hall was a walkway for the bride and groom, laid with a red carpet, flanked by pink balloons arranged in threes. At the entrance, an arch made of balloons and roses and lilies stood, looking very beautiful.

In the center of the main seating area, a large red Chinese character for happiness was on the red silk, inscribed with ”Lu Xie Union”, with two ball knots and colorful ribbons hanging from it.

As for the banquet tables, aside from dishware, wine glasses were also set up, and each table had pre-ordered drinks.

At the entrance on the first floor, there was a table covered with red silk for guest sign-ins, with a large sign next to it reading ”Lu Xie Union”, similarly adorned with pink balloon flower arrangements.

With such an elegant setup, even the young girls in the restaurant couldn’t help but marvel at its beauty and grandeur, each envisioning for themselves a wedding banquet like this one day would be a dream of prestige and style.
