Reborn into the 70: Turning Adversity into Her Dazzling Path Chapter 353: Showing Off

"How can it be the sa? These are the gifts I personally bought to pay respect to you, Grandpa." Gu Juan said with a smile, "It’s been a while since I ca back to see you. You wouldn’t still be mad at , would you?"

Gu Juan emphasized the word "personally," while Gu Lingling shook her head with a smile and continued to write couplets with her head down.

"You know I’ve been through so things recently." Without waiting for Old Sir Gu to speak, Gu Juan sat down on the bed’s edge with a hint of grievance, "But I earned this salary myself, Grandpa, you don’t know yet, do you? I now work at the Departnt Store, a formal worker."

"Now that I earn a salary, I can also afford to pay my respects to you, old man."

"The Departnt Store? Isn’t it very convenient to buy things there?" soone in the queue outside murmured upon hearing this.

"Exactly, exactly," Gu Juan, as if finding a kindred spirit, jumped down from the bed and addressed the people outside at Old Sir Gu’s door, "If you ever want to buy anything, you can co to . The Departnt Store frequently deals with so defective goods outside, without needing coupons."

"Such a good deal." the auntie from earlier asked, "Wouldn’t it be very expensive?"

"Auntie, don’t you know? Last ti Sister Lingling even accompanied her grandma to buy so defective goods, it’s not expensive, just like usual prices, sotis even lower, and without needing coupons."

Gu Juan’s words carried multiple anings: firstly, although Gu Lingling is aware of the defective goods sold at the store, she doesn’t share it with you, and secondly, don’t be fooled by Gu Lingling’s nice clothes, those are all defective goods.

Gu Lingling, naturally understanding her implication, ignored her and continued writing the couplets, "How do you think they look?"

Gu Juan felt as if she punched a pillow, snorted, and walked inside.

"If you have nothing else, just go back and take your things with you, I can’t afford them." Old Sir Gu said, "Don’t co back later, we agreed on things when the family split."

But back when the family split, who knew Old Sir Gu would have such a high status at the Transforr Factory, and who knew Gu Chunhai, though usually quiet, would have great connections at the factory.

Even in Qin City, more people would show him respect.

In the past, when Gu Chunhai drove, sotis he would help people bring things—unpaid labor—but over ti, connections were built.

It was only after Gu Juan joined the Departnt Store herself and t more people that she realized this.

If she had known earlier, she wouldn’t have listened to Wang ili and left the family; she would have stayed no matter what.

Otherwise, for this hiring drive, they would have definitely arranged sothing for her.

Yet it’s still not as comfortable as her job at the Departnt Store with different people to et every day.

"Grandpa, you know the Transforr Factory is recruiting, right?" Gu Juan continued sitting at the bed’s edge, "This ti, you must arrange sothing for her, right?"

She ca back this ti to flaunt. Aren’t you all so fond of Gu Lingling? Getting her a formal job at the Transforr Factory, so what?

I, Gu Juan, do well without your help."

"By the way, Grandpa, I have a boyfriend, also from the Transforr Factory, nad Zheng Peng." Gu Lingling said with a shy smile, "You should know Zheng Peng, right? He even ntioned you, saying that when he was young you held him once."

’Hahaha...’

Gu Lingling, who was writing couplets, couldn’t stand it anymore and burst out laughing accidentally.

Held him once?

How young could he have been then? Would he even rember that? Truly troubleso for this kid!
