Let's debut, fairy!

Chapter 116 So satisfying (Thanks to the patron saint, Water Over Cavities)

When I saw Ning Meng again.

She, who has always been fond of anime and manga style, was surprisingly wearing a beige business suit at this moment.

That little shirt, that little suit, that little pencil skirt, those little black stockings.

Meng Bai felt hot just looking at her.

Keep in mind it's only September, and the weather in Shenzhen isn't exactly cool at all. Wearing this...

Are you really not afraid of getting heatstroke?

"You don't know anything. I'm President Ning now, and President Ning has to dress more formally." Ning Meng, however, was quite intrigued. She swayed her little butt in her high heels and led Meng Bai and Su Xintang toward a building.

This building will become the future [Haofang High-End Skin Care Center], located near Nanshan District in Shenzhen.

The building has three floors above ground and a basement, covering an area of ​​about 2,400 square meters. It was originally a high-end club, but it couldn't stay in business and was rented by Ning Meng's mother, Wang Zhilin.

This was Meng Bai and Su Xintang's first time here. They hadn't originally planned to come, but when they called Ning Meng, she was here supervising the construction, so they decided to come and take a look.

There are about 26 parking spaces at the entrance, and more underground.

"The interior is under renovation, but the basic structure is quite good. We just need to modify the nursing area. The other relaxation areas can be easily modified from their original state."

"Let me tell you, we already have over three hundred members, and they're all eagerly awaiting the opening."

"However, there are still many problems. First of all, the service staff still need training. They need to be both beautiful and handsome, and they also need to know how to operate the equipment..."

Ning Meng introduced the place to the two of them as they walked, but when she heard about the male waiter, Meng Bai immediately reminded her, "You must be careful not to turn this place into a duck meat shop."

“That’s what my mom said too,” Ning Meng chuckled.

She stood with her hands on her hips, fanning herself repeatedly, and said, "So we're considering whether or not to hire male waiters."

The main reason is that the club's members are mostly middle-aged women.

There are few young women, let alone men.

If there are too many handsome waiters inside, there will be problems. Meng Bai has seen all kinds of female customers.

"We definitely need to hire, but we need to take precautions in advance. Our reputation hasn't been fully established yet. In a year or two, our clientele will definitely be more diverse."

As they spoke, the three of them found a sofa in the lounge area and sat down.

Meng Bai got down to business: "Let's not talk about the club for now. Do you have time?"

"Do you need my help?" Ning Meng didn't reply whether she had time.

In reality, she didn't have time; she was very busy with things at the club. But if Meng Bai wanted her to do something, she would have to make time, even if she didn't have any.

"Xintang recently wanted to take her grandma on a tour of the mainland, but I have something to do and can't go with her. Could you help me take them around?"

"Tourism?" Ning Meng said, instinctively glancing at Su Xintang sitting next to her.

After not seeing her for a while, she felt that Su Xintang's temperament was even more refined than before, and she even felt a strange pressure just by looking at her. It was really strange.

She continued, "I'm fine with it, but... does it have to be now?"

"Now is the time. Tourism is one aspect, and another is to gather materials for making videos. We are preparing to do a project on the achievements of agriculture in mainland China."

To be honest, Xintang's grandmother used to be a teacher at the College of Bioresources and Agriculture at National Taiwan University, so this research topic has special significance.

"But won't this topic conflict with the positioning of [Xia Tang]?" Ning Meng frowned.

"So instead of posting 'Xia Tang,' post 'Yi Shao Bai Tang,' just post it as a Vlog. Don't try to bring up anything high-end. We'll keep this topic in mind. The format will still be travel."

As for the videos on the account 【Xia Tang】, I'll ask someone else to help with the planning, the same team we worked with last time, their leader is called Zhuo Weihua.”

After saying that, Meng Bai added, "You should also invite Ning Le. Although he's extremely unreliable when it comes to women, I think he's quite reliable when it comes to traveling."

“My brother is no good. I don’t even know where he is right now.”

"What's wrong? Did he break up with his girlfriend again?"

"No, it's because my older cousin made me angry," Ning Meng said, her face showing both helplessness and anger.

"How so?" Meng Bai asked casually.

"My older cousin also heard about the skincare products we had. She made a phone call, almost like an order, asking Ning Le to get her a four-person supply of skincare products so she could try them out with her girlfriends."

Ning Le disagreed. "One of our membership packages costs 118 million!" My cousin exploded and berated him for a long time. He didn't dare talk back, he was furious, and went out to clear his head.

"Why doesn't he dare to talk back?" Meng Bai didn't understand. Was Ning Le such an easy person to talk to?

"Doesn't my dad work at my uncle's company?"

"Does your dad earn a lot of money working for your uncle each year?"

When Ning Meng heard this question, she didn't answer whether it was more or less. Instead, she said self-deprecatingly, "If we have to calculate the benefits, then it definitely can't compare to the benefits we have here. But some things... I've been following behind others for so many years, and I'm used to it. When I was a child, I would never talk back to my cousins ​​or my aunt when they cursed at me."

"Did your dad just coast along at your uncle's company?"

"No, my dad is a key business player in the company. He's responsible for 20% of the company's orders."

"Then what is your aunt nagging about?" Meng Bai was even more confused. If 20% of a company's orders come from one person, is that what you call following along?
Isn't this a top performer in business?

"Let's not talk about this." Ning Meng didn't want to discuss these things further and changed the subject, "Have you chosen a place yet?"

"South, North, Northwest, and Southwest—look at these four regions. I still need to think about the specific locations. I think it's worthwhile to visit some famous ancient water conservancy projects."

"Dujiangyan?" Ning Meng thought of a place.

"We can take a look." Meng Bai wasn't sure; he thought it might be better to ask his grandmother.

"Okay, when do you leave?"

"We'll go pick up Xintang's grandma first. You should get ready in advance." After saying that, Meng Bai stood up, and Su Xintang also stood up.

Ning Meng asked in surprise, "Are you leaving already?"

"Ah."

"Aren't you going to eat?"

"I'm not eating anymore, I have to catch my flight back to Taiwan." As he spoke, Meng Bai led Su Xintang out.

After taking a couple of steps, he couldn't help but say, "This is a construction site. You shouldn't be dressed like this. You look like an office lady figurine, all you're missing is a pair of wire-rimmed glasses. You should wear work clothes and a hard hat."

"Why do I look like a figurine no matter what I wear in your eyes?" Ning Meng rolled her eyes and said irritably.

“You look like a figurine. Be good and wear a helmet.” Meng Bai patted Ning Meng’s head and added, “We’re leaving. Don’t bother seeing us off.”

Ning Meng was about to hold on a little longer when her phone rang. She glanced at the caller ID and stopped seeing the person off.

She answered the phone after Meng Bai and Su Xintang had both walked away.

"Sister," Ning Meng called out. The person on the phone was her eldest cousin, Ning Yu.

"Ning Meng, no wonder it's so hard to get something done for you guys. You guys back then..."

On the other side, Su Xintang, who had already walked away, suddenly said, "Ning Meng's sister seems to be scolding her again."

"You know, some people are strange. They have extreme double standards towards outsiders and family members. Ning Meng's father can get 20% of the business, but in her aunt's eyes, he is still a debt collector who takes advantage of her family."

“In that case, why not let her stop working there and have her dad work at this club? Her dad is probably more capable than her and her mother, right?” Su Xintang suggested.

“Her dad is definitely more powerful, but they wouldn’t do that.”

"why?"

"I'm afraid I'll be unhappy." Meng Bai shrugged; he wasn't actually unhappy.

However, Ning Meng and Wang Zhilin are people who know how to behave properly, and even Ning Le is very sensible in this regard. They never take the initiative to get involved, but only help with tasks and never offer any opinions.

From their perspective, what are they trying to do by all this family crowding in here? Are they trying to sideline Meng Bai?

Thinking of this, Meng Bai said, "Forget it, even an upright official has difficulty settling family disputes. Let's not get involved and let them resolve it themselves."

However, just as the two were booking a ride online, a call came in from an unknown number.

When the call was connected, it turned out to be Ning Le who was calling.

"Why did you change your number? No wonder Ning Meng said she couldn't find you."

"I haven't changed, I just don't really want to answer other people's calls. By the way, are you with Asuan?"

"We were just chatting," Meng Bai said with a smile. "Why did you suddenly decide to call me?"

"Strategist!!" Ning Le suddenly shouted.

"Holy crap." Meng Bai moved his phone further away.

"I have something I'd like to ask you. My sweetheart and I are shopping in Australia right now, just the two of us. What do you think I should do tonight to win her over?" Ning Le's voice was full of anticipation.

"Whether you can get it or not is another matter, but you absolutely mustn't gamble." Meng Bai instantly became wary.

"I don't gamble; I can't even understand the rules."

"That's good." Meng Bai nodded, then instinctively tried to comfort him, "Can you give up on your true love? I happen to need your help with something important, could you do me a favor?"

"Okay, where should I look for you?"

"?" Meng Bai was stunned by such a straightforward reply.
