Rebirth 1990: Rise of the Tycoon

Formal production Part 14

In the evening, Jiang Xiaoyan returned home and saw the dining table full of dishes. She froze in place. Lu Feng came out of the kitchen, took off his apron, and said, "Come and eat quickly!"

"You got off work so early?" Jiang Xiaoyan looked at the food on the table and asked, "Did you borrow money again?"

Lu Feng thought she would be happy, but her first reaction was to ask if he had borrowed money. He replied, "What if I said I found some money again? Would you believe me?"

"Do you think I would? What exactly are you doing out there?" Jiang Xiaoyan asked worriedly.

"I'm doing something perfectly legal, don't worry," Lu Feng said. "Today is a special day and calls for a celebration." He walked over, picked up Duoduo, and placed her on a chair. "Eat something delicious. Are you happy?"

"Happy!"

"Give me a kiss!"

Duoduo enthusiastically kissed Lu Feng twice on the face, her expression full of cuteness!

Jiang Xiaoyan sat at the side, looking at the spread of dishes, feeling a mix of emotions. He really had changed—not yelling or hitting her anymore—but now she was even more worried.

Lu Feng coaxed Duoduo and noticed Jiang Xiaoyan's worried expression. He asked, "What's wrong with you now?"

"Lu Feng, be honest with me. Have you started gambling again?" Jiang Xiaoyan asked seriously. "How much did you win?"

"I didn't gamble!" Lu Feng sighed when he saw her disbelief and said, "I've started a small factory to produce canned goods. It officially starts running tomorrow. Life will get better."

He started a factory? To Jiang Xiaoyan, this was as unbelievable as pigs flying.

"Let's just go with it. If it doesn't work, then so be it. I'll get my paycheck the day after tomorrow and start paying off the family debts. By the way, I've already repaid Li Dafang's money," Jiang Xiaoyan said as she sat down. "I don't expect you to completely change. I just hope you'll consider me and our child more. I'm not very capable; working two jobs is already exhausting."

"I understand." Lu Feng walked over, hugged her, and said softly, "Life will get better. I really have started a small factory."

Jiang Xiaoyan let him hug her, feeling the warmth and strength of his chest. Her cheeks flushed—this was a feeling she had never experienced before.

Duoduo stared at them with wide eyes and exclaimed, "Daddy's being shy, hugging Mommy!"

Hearing this, Jiang Xiaoyan's face turned as red as a monkey's bottom. She struggled to push Lu Feng away, saying, "What are you doing? The child is watching."

"So what if she's watching?" Lu Feng muttered, suddenly realizing that people weren't as open about displays of affection at that time.

After dinner, Lu Feng lay in bed that night, too excited to sleep as he thought about the factory's opening the next day. He only drifted off in the early hours of the morning.

The next day, Jiang Xiaoyan had just gotten up when Lu Feng also climbed out of bed. The sky outside was still dim.

"You're up so early?"

"The factory opens today. I have to be there early." Lu Feng washed up and ate breakfast.

"You really started a factory?" Jiang Xiaoyan asked in disbelief.

"Just think of it as me fooling around outside," Lu Feng said. "Once the factory gets going, you can quit your job at the restaurant. If business goes well, you won't have to work at all—you can stay home and be a rich lady."
