"Apologize!"
In the stunned silence of everyone, Zhang Weiguo roared again.
Yang Xiaoyun’s mind couldn’t comprehend it, but out of an instinctive fear of her man, she reluctantly apologized.
"S-sorry!"
Her voice was quiet, but everyone present heard it clearly.
They were surprised, but at the same time, they understood that the fellow named Zhang Weiguo must have had some dirt on him held by Yu Zhou.
Therefore, the current situation was understandable.
As for Zhang Weiguo, not many people present sympathized with him. Every unit had its share of troublemakers.
Petty theft at the factory might not be much, but when it came to private individuals, it was despicable.
In life and in business, one always needed a bottom line. Such a person was not worthy of their sympathy.
"For the sake of our fathers dedicating their lives to the second factory, this time, I will not pursue it further."
"But if there is a next time, as long as you dare to do it, I will definitely send you to prison."
"Get out!"
Yu Zhou glared, and did not continue to make things difficult for Zhang Weiguo and his wife.
After all, he knew very well that they were all workers from the second factory. Even if they weren't like bone and flesh, it was still not good to make things irreconcilable between them.
He could disregard his reputation and everything else, but he couldn't let his father, whose position he had taken over, disregard everything.
His elderly father valued his reputation most in his life. If the elders and aunties in the factory truly isolated him, no amount of money or prestige could compensate for it.
"Th-thank you..."
Zhang Weiguo’s tense expression relaxed. Only now did he truly dare not harbor any further intentions.
The reason was simple: he had witnessed Yu Zhou's methods. If he were to try anything again, he would surely be caught.
At that time, if Yu Zhou dealt him a fatal blow, he would have no chance of recovery.
Returning home, the little girl, delighted with her new clothes, gave Yu Zhou a big kiss on the cheek.
The family was harmonious and happy in Yu Zhou's eyes.
It was already the end of December, and the plan to go to Wanghai should be implemented.
Fortunately, the family had now returned to an orderly state. Even his wife Jiang Jie was to start working at Tailong Light Industry tomorrow.
This was perhaps the best outcome.
After all, if Jiang Jie were to do business like himself and be constantly on the move, she, being the kind of wife she was, would definitely not feel secure.
Working at Tailong Light Industry for a period of time, and then letting her resign after his business truly took off, was indeed the best choice.
Late at night, Yu Zhou shamelessly managed to snuggle up between his wife and daughter.
The little girl gradually fell asleep to Jiang Jie's soft singing.
Seeing Yu Zhou's eyes, as large as copper bells in the dim light, Jiang Jie chuckled.
But her expression quickly turned serious, and she said softly to Yu Zhou, "Haven't we talked properly in a long time?"
It wasn't just a long time; they hadn't truly talked since they got married.
However, Yu Zhou understood her thoughts at this moment. His future plans should be disclosed to his wife.
So, he also adopted a serious expression and asked, "Are you asking me what I plan to do next?"
"Or do you think I regret refusing that Song Qing?"
Yu Zhou knew his wife’s desire for job security and her traditional nature.
In her eyes, even though Yu Zhou hadn't achieved much before his layoff, he was still the head of the family.
As the head of the family, he should be the pillar of strength.
Therefore, such a good job opportunity should not have been given up by Yu Zhou.
"A little bit. After all, if you had taken it, according to your designs, it might not have been difficult to secure that manager position."
Jiang Jie did indeed regret it, because in her heart, her husband’s successful career meant true security for their family.
She might have some ability if she took the job, but securing the manager position would be impossible. She knew her own limitations.
"Don't worry, your man may not have many other skills, but when he lets go, making money is not a problem."
"Therefore, whether I work in a big factory or not is not important to me."
"To live a good and prosperous life as a family, it is absolutely not something that can be achieved by honestly working a job."
Yu Zhou smiled and stroked his wife's hair. If his goal before was just to provide a good life for his family,
then now, with this money and the future 'certificate of fortune,' ambition had gradually taken root in Yu Zhou.
Who didn't want to be successful in their career and reach the pinnacle to become one of those few successful people?
In his previous life, he didn't have this opportunity and could only settle for being moderately well-off. But in this life, he, Yu Zhou, had returned to the early 1990s.
Things he dared not imagine before, he could now dare to consider.
"Then what will you do next? We have the capital now, and so much of it. Should we find a stable business to do?"
Feeling Yu Zhou's hand stroking her hair, Jiang Jie instinctively wanted to pull away.
However, this action also made Jiang Jie feel somewhat at ease.
After all, this was her man. Even though their union was merely a result of their families' arrangements and a hasty arranged marriage,
and their relationship wasn't very good after marriage,
Yu Zhou had changed. Ever since that incident where he rushed into the office to save her,
Jiang Jie could clearly feel that her "big Zhou" had changed immensely.
It wasn't just about being more responsible; more importantly, he would protect her and their daughter.
This made Jiang Jie no longer resist Yu Zhou. In fact, there was a hint of anticipation in her heart.
"Next, I'm going to take all the money we have and go to Wanghai. There's a good opportunity there. It will take about half a year to bring the money back!"
"After that, we'll open a factory and give you a stable life."
Seeing Jiang Jie like this, a trace of pity flashed across Yu Zhou's face.
For him, making money and doing business was indeed his aspiration, but similarly, providing Jiang Jie and their daughter with a stable home was also something he had always pursued.
"Wanghai? When are you going?"
Hearing Yu Zhou's words, Jiang Jie was immediately startled. She hadn't known about this plan before.
"Probably in the next day or two! What? You can't bear to part with me?"
Yu Zhou turned around with a smile. However, seeing Jiang Jie so close, Yu Zhou instinctively froze.
"Mmm!"
Jiang Jie exclaimed and immediately prepared to turn away.
But Yu Zhou was faster. He grabbed Jiang Jie and stared intently at her...
