Chapter 482:I Love You
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Chen Yao managed a special store for women that sold many daily necessities that women often used.
For example, they sold slippers, shopping bags, socks, gloves, thermal flasks, mirrors, stuffed toys, hats, scarves, cosmetics, pajamas, notepads, makeup, perfume, nail clippers, incense, hairbrushes, and other good things.
All the products were purchased directly from the manufacturers. As soon as women entered the shop, they were greeted with all kinds of goods. The dazzling array of goods would arouse a strong desire to shop.
Bai Wutong suggested that Noble Consort Ling open a maternity product store in the same way.
It would gather all the goods from the mother’s pregnancy to the baby’s delivery so that everyone could choose the items to buy.
As the store manager, Chen Yao’s main job was to replenish the stock in time and count the daily turnover. She would carry out different business activities according to the seasons and festivals and adjust the items on sale based on the demand. At the same time, she had to manage the conflicts and competition between the employees.
Noble Consort Ling could get someone to take care of these, but she had to learn them.
Chen Yao taught Noble Consort Ling very seriously.
In less than a month, Noble Consort Ling had even learned how to layout the shop, when to change the new season’s goods, how to increase customers’ initiative to spend, and so on.
Noble Consort Ling followed Chen Yao every day and went to various factories. She also learned how to speak to the factory manager’s workers.
She meticulously organized her notes and quickly determined the direction for the shop she was opening.
She wanted to hand over her design to the female workers in the workshop to make and put the products up for sale in the shop. This would prevent her from being distracted by the work at the workshop.
However, when she took the blueprint to the workshop, the factory manager quickly pointed out many things that did not meet the requirements.
The factory could not do the crocheting technique. Even if it was made into a printing style, her design blueprint was not up to standard.
As the blueprint did not meet the standards, the female workers could not make the exact same dimensions of baby clothes.
Noble Consort Ling compared the sample diagram that the factory manager had shown her. She had understood the differences, but she could not draw it.
The factory manager said directly, “If you don’t want to hire someone to teach you, you can go to Qinghe University to learn.”
She could learn to draw clothes and make blueprints at Qinghe Technical College.
However, with Noble Consort Ling’s status, it should be easy for her to enter Qinghe University.
If she wanted to enter Qinghe University, Noble Consort Ling did not want to get in through the back door. She had to participate in the examination and selection like her classmates before she could study there.
Noble Consort Ling did not know if she could pass the examination. She remembered that there was still a Qinghe Technical College, so she planned to ask Qiu Si about the situation first.
The person-in-charge of Qinghe Technical College was originally Cui Lingyi, but she had too many things to deal with, so she promoted Mr. Liu to become the dean of Qinghe Technical College.
Mr. Liu recognized Noble Consort Ling. After greeting her, he invited her into the office.
“What can I do for you, Madam?”
Noble Consort Ling said, “Sir, I want to learn how to make clothes. I wonder if I can do it too?”
The Qinghe Technical College did not restrict one’s age and education. As long as one paid enough and met the graduation criteria, they could arrange jobs and issue a graduation certificate.
If Noble Consort Ling wanted to learn, Mr. Liu naturally would agree.
However, Qinghe University also had a new fashion department. Mr. Liu said, “Madam, why don’t you try to enter Qinghe University? Qinghe University has more rigorous curriculum for fashion design. After graduating from Qinghe University, you can even obtain a certificate. If you pass the public service examination, you can also become a teacher of the school.”
It was difficult to get into Qinghe University. Just graduating would take a long time.
Noble Consort Ling only wanted to learn how to make clothes for the time being. She thought for a while and signed up for the Qinghe Technical College’s fashion design class first.
If she wanted to enter Qinghe University in the future, there was still time.
Since Noble Consort Ling had signed up, Mr. Liu said happily. “The outstanding graduates of our academy also have a chance to receive direct recommendation to Qinghe University. Good luck, Madam.”
Noble Consort Ling smiled. “Thank you for your guidance, Sir.”
In order to open a maternity store, Noble Consort Ling worked harder and harder, and the smile on her face deepened.
Every time Bai Wutong saw the radiant Noble Consort Ling, she wondered if she could still be so young at her age.
Thinking that Chu Tianbao was almost ten years older than her, she suddenly pounced on him on the sofa. “You’ve been through a lot in the past few months!”
Chu Tianbao raised his eyebrows. “My wife despises me?”
There was danger in his eyes, as if he would swallow her alive if she dared to admit it.
Bai Wutong was not afraid at all. She pinched his cheek and leaned over to take a bite. “Do you think I despise you?”
Chu Tianbao was a little satisfied and was about to hug Bai Wutong and take another bite.
Bai Wutong stopped him obediently. “Be good and don’t move.”
Her bright eyes hooked onto Chu Tianbao’s soul. Even when she walked into the bathroom, Chu Tianbao’s gaze did not leave her.
As soon as Bai Wutong got the things on the cabinet, Chu Tianbao suddenly barged in.
He was so silent that Bai Wutong almost pulled out her sword.
Bai Wutong glared at him. “Didn’t I tell you to stay obediently?”
Chu Tianbao was like a big wolf dog. “1 miss you.” His straight gaze kept hinting at her to give him some benefits.
Bai Wutong was caught between laughter and tears. “Chu Tianbao, how old are you this year?”
Chu Tianbao said without hesitation, “One year old!”
Realizing that his gaze was on her chest, Bai Wutong remembered how thick-skinned he was.
She gave him a hard knock on the head and quickly distanced herself from him. She ordered him to lie on the bed.
Chu Tianbao’s gaze deepened and became even stranger.
Bai Wutong smiled like a blooming sunflower. She opened the jar and wiped his face.
There was a cold touch and a salty smell. Chu Tianbao looked at the bridge of his nose. It was something like cement.
Bai Wutong saw his confusion and the disappointment that flashed past. She sat on him. “This is a salt mud mask. You have to take good care of yourself.”
Chu Tianbao recalled the amazement in Bai Wutong’s eyes when she first saw him.
He suddenly became nervous and asked in a deep voice, “What if someone is better-looking than me?”
Bai Wutong was stunned by his train of thought.
She was just asking him to take care of himself, but she actually suspected that she was just coveting his beauty.
Bai Wutong leaned down angrily. “How can you be so lacking in confidence!”
Chu Tianbao’s pupils dilated, as if he had been greatly stimulated. The rhythm in his heart was almost comparable to a bumper car.
As soon as Bai Wutong finished speaking, she felt that she had been infected by Chu Tianbao and was becoming more and more cheesy. When she met Chu Tianbao’s expectant gaze, she felt that she could be even cheesier.
“I love you.” The only person she’d ever loved in either her previous life or this one.
The air froze for a moment, and then in an instant, it emitted strong hormones.
Chu Tianbao bit Bai Wutong’s face full of sea mud, and his mouth was salty..
