Liu Qing thoughtfully served Old Zhang some food, “Old Zhang, try this, the steamed fish from this restaurant is outstanding.”

“Hmm, very fresh and tender.”

As Old Zhang took a bite, his face immediately lit up with a radiant smile.

To be honest, Old Zhang was quite handsome in his youth.

Even now, when he dresses up, he doesn’t become a greasy middle-aged uncle.

He is, after all, an eligible bachelor.

Little Landlady watched Old Zhang and Liu Qing’s public display of affection and exchanged a glance with Lin Chuan before continuing her inquiry, “Aunt Liu, I still don’t know what do you do for a living.”

Liu Qing blinked her eyes and smiled, “I’m in the antique collection business. I surveyed the Antique Market in Anling a while back. The development prospects here are quite significant, so I decided to develop here. I didn’t expect to meet Old Zhang.”

“Antique collection?”

Little Landlady pouted her lips.

She really didn’t understand this business.

Old Zhang chuckled, “Zhang, there are many collectors of antiques in Anling City. Your Aunt Liu wants to create a large antique market here. Currently, the project is going through the approval process.”

At that moment,

Liu Qing slowly stood up, took off the bracelet she was wearing, walked over to Little Landlady, “Zhang, Aunt Liu rushed over and didn’t have time to buy you a gift. This century-old red agate bracelet is for you as a meeting present.”

“Aunt Liu, isn’t this too valuable?”

Little Landlady looked at the red agate bracelet in her hand and asked in shock.

“Not expensive at all.”

Liu Qing smiled, “This quality is worth just a little tens of thousands.”

“It’s too valuable,” Little Landlady shook her head.

“Zhang, just accept it if your Aunt Liu is giving it to you,” Old Zhang said with a chuckle.

Liu Qing personally put the ‘century-old red agate bracelet’ on Zhang Xinxin and smiled, “Zhang, this bracelet can balance the positive energy in your body, relieve mental stress, improve endocrine circulation, and it also has a beautifying effect.”

“Thank you, Aunt Liu.”

Little Landlady Zhang Xinxin felt the coolness of the red agate and nodded in thanks.

Liu Qing looked at Little Landlady and smiled.

Afterward, she started a conversation related to Little Landlady.

“Zhang, what does Lin do?” Liu Qing asked with a smile.

Little Landlady turned her head to look at Lin Chuan and said with a smile, “His main job is a web novel author, and then he has a bit of a sideline business.”

“Literary creator?”

Liu Qing’s eyes lit up with curiosity as she looked at Lin Chuan.

Lin Chuan took over the conversation and said with a smile, “I can’t really claim to be a literary creator; I just write nonsense.”

“Old Zhang, young people have wild imaginations,” Liu Qing turned her head to look at Old Zhang, then back at Lin Chuan, “Young people should try different things, daring to try. When I was young, I dared to do anything, but now, even investing to build an antique market, I hesitate a lot.”

“Where do you plan to build this antique market?” Lin Chuan asked curiously.

“It’s set to be located in the southeast corner of Qingxiu District, on that vacant lot. Once the approval comes through, we can start construction!” Liu Qing said with a smile.

“Must be fun dealing with antiques, right?” Little Landlady asked first.

Liu Qing shook her head with a smile and said with pursed lips, “It’s not fun. Dealing with antiques is a task that strains the eyes and brain.”

“Yes, I’ve been wanting to learn for a long time, and I still haven’t managed to,” Old Zhang chimed in.

In the private room.

Liu Qing laughed again, “Zhang, I’ve heard from Old Zhang that you and Lin have started a Network Security Company. I think that’s very cool.”

“Really?” Little Landlady’s eyes brightened.

“Of course,” Liu Qing said with a radiant smile and then added, “You dared to invest and start a business before graduating from college. I wasn’t like you when I was younger; I’m a bit in awe of you.”

In the private room, at the dinner table.

Everyone engaged in conversation.

Especially Liu Qing, who occasionally complimented Little Landlady subtly.

The dinner went smoothly with a warm atmosphere.

Leaving Youran Villa, Old Zhang took Liu Qing back, and she waved goodbye to Little Landlady and Lin Chuan, “Zhang, Lin, see you later.”

“Aunt Liu, goodbye,”

Little Landlady waved her hand, then she got on her electric bike and patted the back seat, “Chairman, the CFO will take you for a spin.”

Lin Chuan laughed, “Alright!”

Little Landlady twisted the throttle, and the electric bike ‘swooshed’ away, the cool evening breeze blowing against the two, with the trees swaying gently in the wind on both sides of the road.

“Chairman, what do you think of Aunt Liu?” Little Landlady asked.

“It’s a bit hard to say,” replied Lin Chuan.

“Why is it hard to say?” Little Landlady asked, puzzled, “Just tell me straight.”

“From tonight’s perspective, she seems genuinely affectionate towards your father,” Lin Chuan pondered for a moment before answering.

“But?” Little Landlady smiled.

“How did you know there’s a ‘but’?” Lin Chuan asked with a smile.

Little Landlady laughed, “Based on what I know about you, hahaha, tell me, ‘but what’?”

Lin Chuan pondered again and said, “Aunt Liu appears perfect in her appearance, speech, and demeanor, as if she’s had professional training. That’s just a guess, not ruling out that it’s just her natural way.”

Little Landlady’s brows furrowed slightly.

Lin Chuan continued, “But she gives me a very familiar feeling, her words are filled with strong implications and suggestiveness.”
