Chapter 594 Good things come in hard times
Moscow has entered winter at this time. Although the weather here is extremely cold, the newly opened "Fanlou" Moscow store is bustling with activity. It can be seen that Chinese people in Moscow like Chinese food very much.

"Fan, you are too strict with the food." Vladimir, the Moscow partner of "Fanlou", looked at Suning in shock.

"Vladimir, the quality and hygiene of our food are the secret to the continued success of our 'Fan Lou'."

"Fan, your strict requirements may make the employees in Moscow uncomfortable." Vladimir explained with a wry smile, because the employees in Moscow are used to a leisurely life.

"Vladimir, have you done what I asked you to do?" Suning would never relax his requirements, so he changed the subject and asked Vladimir.

"Fan, all the formalities have been completed. The location is just outside Moscow."

"Well, Vladimir, you've worked hard."

Seeing that "Fanlou" did not change the strict food quality and hygiene requirements due to different regions, the big boss Suning was truly relieved. After all, those in the catering industry must stick to these two bottom lines. Then he took Guan Juer to the place she most longed for.

"Brother Fan, where are you taking me?" Guan Juer asked Suning who was driving the SUV with a puzzled look on her face.

"Haha, don't be anxious! You'll know when we get there." At this time, Suning was driving an all-terrain off-road vehicle on the snowy outskirts of Moscow.

The powerful Russian all-terrain off-road vehicle drove through the snow and ice as if it were flat ground, and soon arrived at the destination of Suning and his companions' trip, which was a pure wooden single-family villa on the outskirts of Moscow.

"Brother Fan, this wooden house is so beautiful!" Guan Juer got off the car wrapped up like a little penguin, and then looked at the beautiful wooden house in front of her with surprise.

"Haha, I asked my partner Vladimir here to find this wooden house. Now I have bought it. When I want to come to Moscow to play in the future, I will have a suitable place to stay." Suning explained with a smile on his face.

"Brother Fan, you are too extravagant." Guan Juer looked at Suning with envy.

"Let's go! I'll take you inside to have a look. I plan to stay here for a few more days before returning home."

"Great! I also want to experience life in Moscow in winter."

Suning had people prepare a lot of daily necessities in this wooden house, which was enough for him and Guan Juer to stay here for more than ten days. After the heating in the room was turned on, it felt like the temperature in the room was rising rapidly. Then Suning lit the fireplace in the living room, and a raging fire soon burned.

While taking off his thick coat, Suning smiled at Guan Juer and said, "Guan Guan, there are many rooms here, you can choose one yourself."

"Okay!" Guan Juer, who had just taken off her bulky down jacket, looked at Suning with a smile.

Seeing Guan Juer happily running to choose a room, Suning ran to the kitchen of the wooden house and personally cooked a sumptuous dinner, while Guan Juer served the food like a hardworking little bee.

Looking at the sumptuous meal on the table and the warmth coming from the fireplace nearby, Guan Juer ate with great joy. She couldn't help but give Su Ning a thumbs-up and praised him, saying, "Brother Fan, I didn't know your cooking skills are so good!"

"Guan Guan, actually, my best skill is cooking, and the reason I chose to open a hot pot restaurant is for the sake of easy operation and management."

"Yes, Brother Fan, I know this. As long as the food company is well established, the management of each store will be relatively simple."

Soon Suning and Guan Juer finished their dinner. At this time, a snowstorm started outside the wooden house. Suning and Guan Juer were looking at the beautiful scenery outside the window, feeling the rare peace and tranquility at this moment.

"Guan Guan, I'll take you out hunting tomorrow."

"Okay!"

Although Suning and Guan Juer were somewhat reluctant to leave Moscow, the lives of other people continued. Fan Shengmei, without the ties of family, and with Suning's intentional or unintentional assistance, eventually got together with Wang Bochuan.

Fan Shengmei brought Wang Baichuan back to Nantong specifically, wanting to introduce Wang Baichuan to her family, but Fan Shengmei found that Fan's father and Fan's mother did not like Wang Baichuan. They simply felt that Wang Baichuan had no ability and believed that Wang Baichuan was not worthy of their daughter.

"Shengmei, why do you bring all kinds of people home?" Fan's mother looked at her daughter Fan Shengmei with some displeasure, and did not give face to Wang Baichuan who was standing next to her.

"Mom, how can you talk like that? Baichuan is my boyfriend." Fan Shengmei couldn't stand her mother's impolite tone.

"Okay! Your father and I don't agree with what you're doing, and I believe your brother won't agree either." Mother Fan looked at the "useless" Wang Baichuan and felt very dissatisfied in every way.

"Mom, how can you be so unreasonable?" Fan Shengmei looked at her mother with an expression of disbelief on her face, as if she was meeting her mother for the first time.

"Hmph! Fan Shengmei, our Fan family is in such a good condition now, how could you find someone like this?" I don't know when it started, but Fan's mother's mentality has changed. Maybe this is her nature.

"Mom, you"

"Shengmei, stop arguing with your aunt. I'd better go back first!" Wang Baichuan felt really embarrassed and could only force a smile to persuade Fan Shengmei.

"Baichuan, then you should go back first. I will persuade my parents." Fan Shengmei looked at her boyfriend Wang Baichuan with some shame.

"Well, talk slowly, and don't argue with your aunt." Wang Baichuan said in a low voice with a forced smile.

"Well, I see."

After sending her boyfriend Wang Bochuan away, Fan Shengmei returned home with a huffy look on her face. She ignored her parents and went straight back to her room, slamming the door shut.

"boom!"

Hearing the slam of the door shut by his daughter Fan Shengmei, Father Fan looked at Mother Fan with some concern, "Shengmei's mother, is it not good for us to do this?"

"Hmph! What's wrong with that? Our Fan family is so well off now. If we want to find a son-in-law, we should look for someone from a wealthy family. Why should we look for a poor guy like Wang Baichuan?" Fan's mother retorted to Fan's father disapprovingly.

"Shengmei's mom, but I'm worried that Shengmei has become estranged from us." Although he agreed with Fan's mom's words, Fan's dad still couldn't help but worry.

"Hmph! She's rebelling against me. I'll call Shengtang right now, but he won't tolerate Shengmei." Fan's mother believed that Fan Shengmei's current comfort was entirely due to her son, so she thought Fan Shengmei should repay her son.

"Huh?" Fan's mother picked up the phone and called Suning as soon as she finished speaking. Suning, who was far away in Moscow, looked at the phone screen in confusion. "Hello! Mom, what's going on?"

"Shengtang! Something big has happened at home." Fan's mother's exaggerated voice came from the phone.

"Ah? Mom, what happened at home?"

"Shengtang! Please come back soon and take care of Fan Shengmei!" Upon hearing her son's voice, Fan's mother seemed to have found her backbone and immediately began to criticize Fan Shengmei. "She brought home a poor guy from nowhere and said she wanted to date him. How can our family accept such a person?"

"Haha, Mom, then tell me what kind of family we are now?" Hearing the tone of Fan's mother, Su Ning almost laughed out loud.

"Huh? Shengtang, your business is so big now, you should find a rich boy for Fan Shengmei, so that he can help you." Although she heard her son's bad tone, Fan's mother still expressed her thoughts.

"Mom, thank you for your concern for me, but can you please not think of me as too materialistic?" Su Ning suppressed the anger in his heart and said to his mother on the other end of the phone.

"what?"

"Mom, our Fan family is just an ordinary family. Please don't look at others with tinted glasses, okay?" Su Ning didn't expect that "he" was no longer "Adou", but Fan's mother still did her own thing.

"Shengtang, I."

"Is the boyfriend Shengmei brought back called Wang Baichuan?" Su Ning once again suppressed his anger and asked calmly on the phone.

"Ah? Yes! His name is Wang Baichuan." Fan's mother answered Su Ning in surprise.

"Mom, I've heard of this guy. He's very nice to Shengmei." Su Ning expressed his approval of both Fan Shengmei and Wang Baichuan.

"But he is just a poor man who has nothing!" Hearing her son's light-hearted approval, Fan's mother found it hard to accept.

"Mom, I'm telling you one last time, don't ask about Shengmei's affairs anymore, and don't force me to disown you as my parents." Seeing how stubborn Fan's mother was, Su Ning lost some of his patience.

"Ah? Shengtang." Only then did Fan's mother feel the impatience in Su Ning's words.

"That's enough! I'm still abroad, and answering calls will incur very expensive roaming charges." Hearing that Fan's mother wanted to continue explaining something, Su Ning said impatiently and hung up the phone, "So, if there's nothing else, then I'll hang up first."

At this time, Fan's mother put down the phone and looked at Fan's father with a wry smile, "Old Fan, it seems that we are both wrong. Shengtang knows this Wang Baichuan."

"Huh? Since Shengtang also knows about Shengmei's affairs, let's not ask about it anymore." Father Fan is a person who prefers to mind his own business.

"Old Fan, as parents, we can't help but consider Shengtang!" It seemed as if every parent would say this, that everything they do is for the good of their children. "After all, Wang Baichuan can't help Shengtang at all, and on the contrary, he will be a burden to our precious son."

"Shengmei's mother, what else do you want to do?" Father Fan knew his wife very well, and then looked at Mother Fan in confusion and asked.

"Old Fan, why don't we just take Lei Lei with us to Shanghai, and we'll watch over Fan Shengmei every day." Fan's mother expressed her plan.

"That's not a good idea!" Father Fan said hesitantly after hearing Mother Fan's plan. "Besides, Shengmei has rented out the house. Where are we going to live?"

"Hmph! Old Fan, look at how successful our son is now, so we definitely need to find a capable son-in-law." It was as if the son had become an excuse for Fan's mother. She wouldn't listen to Fan's father's advice at all, and instead had her own plans. "As for Fan Shengmei renting out the house, why not just have her kick out one tenant?"

"Shengmei's mother, didn't Shengtang tell you not to ask about it just now?"

"We are doing this for Shengtang's own good. He will understand us in the end."

Seeing Su Ning hung up the phone unhappily, Guan Juer looked over with concern, "Brother Fan, is there something wrong at home?"

"Fan Shengmei brought Wang Baichuan back to meet my parents, but my parents were not very happy with him." Suning explained while looking at Guan Juer in front of him.

"Ah? Sister Fan is so quick?" Guan Juer's eyes lit up.

"Haha, Fan Shengmei is already in her thirties, maybe she herself is a little eager to get married."

"Brother Fan, what should we do if your parents don't agree with Sister Fan and Wang Baichuan?" When Su Ning answered the phone just now, Guan Juer also heard some of the words, and then looked at Su Ning speculatively and asked.

"Guan Guan, there's a saying that good things take time. If things go too smoothly, they won't know how to cherish them." Su Ning realized that Fan Shengmei and Wang Baichuan's love would not go smoothly, but he was not ready to make any more moves. Instead, he believed that they really needed your hardship.

"Brother Fan, we have also been in Moscow for more than ten days. When do we plan to go back?" Guan Juer also agreed with Suning's point of view, and then asked Suning in confusion.

"Haha, Guan Guan, do you want to go back?"

"Well, the initial novelty has worn off. Instead, I feel that life in China is better." Guan Juer expressed her thoughts honestly. After all, she was used to life in China and was really not used to the snowy Moscow.

"Okay! Then book two tickets for the day after tomorrow, and we will fly back to Shanghai the day after tomorrow." During this period of time, I have already got what I wanted and can indeed return to China.

"Great! I'm going to the city tomorrow to bring some gifts from Moscow to Sister Fan and the others."

"Okay! I'll take you downtown shopping tomorrow. It's a good opportunity to see how the business of "Fanlou" is going."

During the past ten days, Suning took Guan Juer hunting in the nearby mountains and forests, using both hunting rifles and bows and arrows, allowing Suning and Guan Juer to enjoy a free and easy life.

Although Suning and Guan Juer still haven't broken through the last step, Suning feels that Guan Juer's mentality has changed. She no longer regards herself as a savior, and her relationship with Suning has unknowingly become more harmonious.

Suning knew that he could eat Guan Juer anytime he wanted, but he felt that it was meaningless, so Suning always kept a distance from Guan Juer, which in turn made Guan Juer start to develop feelings for Suning.
