Chapter 394 Mom, Why Are You Here?
“This Tomorrow Cafeteria has two floors, upper and lower, and the space is very large.
Even if everyone from all the companies comes to the cafeteria for lunch, it will still be very spacious.”
“Also, all the drinks in the surrounding refrigerators are free.
You can take whatever you want when you eat, just don't waste it.”
“………..”
Li Shen walked and introduced the environment of the cafeteria.
“Hong Jie, what's for dinner tonight?”
Halfway there, he saw Dong Hong at the counter, replacing a menu with a new one.
He asked with a smile.
When he was at the Clothing Factory, he often went to the cafeteria, especially during the period when they sold bento boxes.
Dong Hong was responsible for the daily menu planning for the cafeteria, so the two were quite familiar with each other, and he had even accompanied General Manager Chen on a business trip with Yang Dahai.
So, occasionally coming to the cafeteria, he would still chat a few words.
“Hmm, tonight there's…”
Dong Hong heard the voice behind her, turned her head, and was about to say something, but the words on the tip of her tongue suddenly stopped.
Her gaze was fixed on the figure behind Li Shen.
“What's wrong, Hong Jie?”
Li Shen saw that Dong Hong's expression was a bit off, and tentatively asked.
But before Dong Hong could answer, a sudden call came from behind.
“Mom, why are you here?”
Mom?
What mom?
Listening to the voice from behind, it was clearly from one of those two, Liu Weiwei and Yang Yaoyao.
Li Shen was puzzled, but he quickly reacted, and his expression gradually became strange.
He shifted his body slightly, looked at Yang Yaoyao and Liu Weiwei behind him, and then looked at Dong Hong.
He found that Yang Yaoyao and Dong Hong were looking at each other.
No way!
Li Shen opened his mouth, feeling a bit incredulous.
Could it be that he had recruited Hong Jie's daughter to the company?
This was too much of a coincidence.
“Mom, why are you here?”
Yang Yaoyao gradually came back to her senses, looking at her mother in front of her, her expression very puzzled.
Wasn't her mother working in the cafeteria of the Clothing Factory?
“I work here.
Why are you here?
Didn't you say you were going to a company to sign a contract?”
Dong Hong looked at her daughter, also a bit surprised, but more so shocked.
She knew her daughter was returning to Jiangcheng today to sign a contract with an internship company.
She was planning to make more delicious food after work, and never expected to meet her here.
“I came here to sign a contract.
Aren't you working in the cafeteria of the Clothing Factory, why are you in…”
Yang Yaoyao's words stopped halfway, and a sudden thought flashed through her mind.
Tomorrow Group, Tomorrow Cafeteria.
She finally knew why it felt so familiar; her mother had mentioned it to her once before, but she hadn't paid much attention to it at the time and hadn't taken it to heart.
Now it seemed.
Yang Yaoyao suddenly thought of a possibility.
The company she was now joining and the company her mother wanted her to work at were the same company.
Hmm!
It might not be the same company, but it was part of the same group.
Dong Hong listened to her daughter's words, and gradually realized, she turned to look at Li Shen, then looked at her daughter with a delighted expression.
“So, the company you joined is Wuliao Short Video?”
She had already joined the company before Tomorrow Group was established.
As the company continued to grow until Tomorrow Group was founded, she was very familiar with the companies under Tomorrow Group.
Of course, she only knew the names of the companies; she didn't quite understand what specific businesses each company operated.
But she knew one thing, and that was that any company belonging to General Manager Chen was a good company.
“Yes.”
Yang Yaoyao took a deep breath, then nodded.
Li Shen looked around, left and right, and roughly understood what was going on.
After thinking for a moment, he said,
“Well, I still have things to do at the company, so I'll head back first.
You two can chat slowly.”
With that, he turned and left directly.
There was no point in him staying while the mother and daughter were catching up, and he had already shown them the location of the cafeteria, so there was nothing else to explain.
Li Shen left.
Dong Hong then took Yang Yaoyao and Liu Weiwei to a table in the cafeteria and sat down.
After a few simple words, the matter was finally clarified.
“I told you General Manager Chen's company is very good, but you didn't believe me.
Now you do, right?”
Dong Hong looked at Yang Yaoyao with joy.
She was very happy that Yang Yaoyao could work for General Manager Chen's group company.
“But, wasn't he still a Clothing Factory owner last time?
How did he become a group?”
Yang Yaoyao still found it a bit incredible.
She clearly remembered the layout of the Clothing Factory when she visited it last time.
In terms of scale, it was a normal-sized Clothing Factory, neither too big nor too small, except that the benefits were much better than other Clothing Factories.
But there was nothing particularly special about it.
Yet, she never expected that in just a mere year, that not-so-big Clothing Factory would transform into Tomorrow Group.
This was too unbelievable.
Even with the facts laid out before her, she still found it hard to believe.
“General Manager Chen is young and promising.
What's so rare about a Clothing Factory becoming Tomorrow Group?
And you've been to that Clothing Factory, haven't you?
It's undergone big changes now.
The entire Industrial Park there has been leased by General Manager Chen, and it's currently undergoing reconstruction.”
“Once the Clothing Factory is rebuilt, it will be a very large-scale Clothing Factory.”
Dong Hong gestured in the air with her hand.
The entire Industrial Park belongs to the Clothing Factory!
Listening to her mother's words, Yang Yaoyao recalled the size of the Industrial Park when she visited the Clothing Factory last time.
Although she hadn't walked around the Industrial Park, she could be sure that the Industrial Park was at least tens of thousands of square meters.
Not to mention the rent for these tens of thousands of square meters, just the reconstruction of a tens of thousands of square meter Clothing Factory would be a very huge expense.
This made her think of the 24th-floor fitness and entertainment area again, plus this luxurious employee cafeteria.
For General Manager Chen, whom she had never met, she now had only one impression: generous.
After a long while,
She gradually came back to her senses, and suddenly remembered that she hadn't introduced her friend yet.
So she quickly spoke up to introduce her.
“Mom, let me introduce you.
This is my roommate, Liu Weiwei.
We started work together today.”
“Weiwei, this is my mom.”
Liu Weiwei heard this and quickly greeted her.
“Hello, Auntie!”
“Hello, you must be Weiwei.
Yaoyao often talks about you.
Now that you're in Jiangcheng, just treat this place as your home.
What do you want to eat tonight?
Auntie will buy groceries and cook for you.”
Dong Hong looked at Liu Weiwei and said with a smile.
“Auntie, there's no need to go to such trouble.
Just make something simple.”
“How can that be?
Since you won't say, I'll just decide.
Alright, I need to go get busy.
I can't chat with you anymore.”
“……”
The three chatted for a while longer, then Dong Hong glanced at the time and quickly walked towards the kitchen.
It was time to prepare ingredients for dinner, and she shouldn't delay too long.
After Dong Hong left,
Yang Yaoyao and Liu Weiwei also left the cafeteria.
“Yaoyao, I checked, and Changbai Jingyuan has apartments for rent.
There's a pretty good two-bedroom unit, over 80 square meters, fully furnished, so we can just move in with our bags.”
On the way,
Liu Weiwei looked at the apartment rental app on her phone and slowly said.
“Okay, then let's contact the agent and go see it now.
If there are no problems, let's rent it.”
Yang Yaoyao nodded.
