Wang Guofu’s gaze was so obvious that it was hard for Chen Youli to ignore. He looked over at Wang Guofu. "Vice Factory Director Wang, is sothing wrong?"
As he asked, Chen Youli subconsciously touched his hair.
’It couldn’t be because I’m losing too much hair, could it? Did the vice factory director notice?’
’Please, no—’
Wang Guofu looked at Chen Youli, then said with a wide smile, "Ah, it’s nothing, Little Chen. You just need to be careful," he added earnestly.
’He’s still so young. If he goes bald prematurely, he’ll never get a wife!’
"I... I know."
With that, Chen Youli bolted as if fleeing for his life.
’Even his own vice factory director noticed his thinning hair! SOB SOB SOB... He has a date to et a prospective partner tomorrow, what is he going to do now?!’
When he got ho, everyone looked at him curiously.
"What’s wrong with you?"
"Yeah, why are you clutching your head?"
Chen Youli told his friend about his worries, and his friend just looked puzzled. "Your hair does look a *little* thin, but it’s not that bad. You haven’t even t her yet and you’re already this worked up. At this rate, you’ll be too tongue-tied to speak when you see her tomorrow, won’t you? Hahaha!"
Chen Youli blushed at the teasing.
"Wait a minute, isn’t the Factory Director leaving for the Spring Trade Fair tomorrow? If you have a date, does that an you’re not going?"
"I went last ti, so a different group is going this ti. Otherwise, I’d never have ti to go on a date."
...
Xie Changning slept soundly until the next morning. By the ti she woke up, it was almost ti to depart. She hurriedly washed up, grabbed her things, and rushed outside.
Only after getting in the vehicle did she wipe her brow.
’She’d really slept in.’
She’d almost missed the bus.
Wang Guofu, on the other hand, was perfectly fine. He chuckled as he looked at Xie Changning. "Well, what a surprise! I didn’t expect to see so many familiar faces on this trip!"
In the back seat were two other vice factory directors, one from the wood products factory and the other from the household chemical factory.
They had all brought samples with them to Shencheng City.
Once aboard the train, she found that her travel companions were once again Director Yu and Xie Changyi. The two were sitting on a bunk in the sleeper car, waiting for her.
"So, what goodies did you prepare this ti?" Both Xie Changyi and Yu Chunhe were curious to see what new product Xie Changning had brought.
Her mind was overflowing with so many strange and wonderful ideas that they couldn’t help but wonder where she got them all from.
Xie Changning looked at the two of them. "You’ll find out when we get there, won’t you?"
She said it with a twinkle in her eye, and it was obvious she had plenty of surprises in store.
This only made Xie Changyi and Yu Chunhe even more curious. They were itching to find out ahead of ti.
But alas—
Xie Changning didn’t breathe a single word. It wasn’t until they went to the restroom together that she pulled a small packet out of her pocket, tore it open, and rubbed the contents in her palm until it started to lather—
"What’s that!"
Yu Chunhe was sharp-eyed and imdiately spotted the "goody" Xie Changning had pulled out.
Hearing her, Xie Changyi’s gaze was also drawn to Xie Changning’s hand. She saw her sister holding a tiny piece of soap. "What is that?"
"It’s travel-sized cleansing soap."
Xie Changning dried her hands. Then, from her pocket, she pulled out several small, portable facial cleansing soaps, each shaped like a rose petal, and dangled them in front of the two won.
Xie Changyi and Yu Chunhe exchanged a look, then asked in unison, "Travel-sized?"
"That’s right."
Neither of them had ever seen a travel-sized product like this before, but they both had the sa thought: ’This is incredibly convenient!’
