Chapter 418 Cargo Company
Lin Panpan stared at the empty lot covered with weeds across the road and said:
"Just say it now! The words have already been spoken, and we can't let people laugh at us.
If you want to open a business, open a big one. Deng Xiaoyan’s stores are nothing compared to that!”
She pointed to the empty space:
"Look, this piece of land is great, it's right across from her store.
Besides, if she can drive it, why can't we?"
Gu Mobai smiled and rubbed her head. "Alright! Leave it to me! It's just a matter of buying a piece of land and building a building. It's no big deal! How many floors do you think would be appropriate?"
Lin Panpan thought for a moment and said, "Let's build a fifth floor first. We have to make our department store more impressive than hers!"
Gu Moshu stood by the roadside, scratching his head, his face wrinkled with worry. "Just to buy me two skirts, why did you have to open a department store?"
She looked at Lin Panpan eagerly and said, "Sister-in-law, it's all my fault. If we had known earlier, we wouldn't have gone to the department store and wouldn't have gotten into this trouble!"
Lin Panpan reached out and pinched his face, saying unhappily:
"What are you thinking about! This has nothing to do with you.
I just can't get over it, and besides, we really should have a proper department store here.
Deng Xiaoyan's department store looks like a grocery store, with few high-end items.
Her eyes lit up, and she became more and more excited as she spoke: "If we're going to open a store, let's open a real department store, specializing in branded goods, and we want to make it big and strong!"
After hearing what she said, Gu Mobai had a clue in his mind and quickly responded:
"Don't worry about the supply channels, I know a lot of suppliers and I can help you contact them when the time comes.
Building a building is even easier. We, the Gu family, have our own construction team. Building a five-story building is like a piece of cake!"
When they got home, Gu Mobai came over and asked:
"Tell me, what kind of department store do you want?
Just make your request, I promise to build it according to your idea!"
Lin Panpan's eyebrows curved into crescents, and she tapped Gu Mobai's chest with her fingertips and said, "Hubby, you're the best. Do you have time recently?"
The tip of Gu Mobai's ears instantly turned crimson, his Adam's apple moved up and down twice, and he embraced the person with his long arms.
"The traffic team has been very busy lately, so don't worry! I'll hold the sky up even if it falls.
It's just a department store, so consider it a training ground for you."
Lin Panpan raised her head, her eyelashes brushing across his jaw. "Okay, I get it. If this first store does well, we'll open a second and third, and have branches all over the country!"
"As long as you are happy." Gu Mobai's nose rubbed against the top of her head, and said with indulgence:
“Many of my businesses are overseas, so I don’t need a department store.
The domestic market has not been suitable for expansion in recent years, and my uncle has been stationed overseas for many years..."
Before he could finish his words, Lin Panpan suddenly stood on tiptoe and kissed the corner of his mouth lightly.
The soft touch made Gu Mobai's breathing stagnate, and the heat rising in his chest instantly overwhelmed his rationality.
His Adam's apple rolled violently, and his long arms suddenly tightened to pull her into his arms. His fingertips firmly grasped the back of her neck, and he kissed her aggressively.
Lin Panpan's back was against the brick wall, and Gu Mobai's hot palm climbed along her waistline all the way to her hair, fixing her head at the most suitable angle.
The overlapping shadows of the two people swayed in the twilight. He plundered every inch of air like conquering a city. Occasionally, when he let go, his hot breath would still linger and brush against the red corners of his eyes.
Lin Panpan put her hands around his neck, her fingertips unconsciously tugging at the loose hair on the back of his neck, in exchange for a deeper response.
After an unknown amount of time, Gu Mobai finally let go of the person who was almost suffocating.
Their foreheads touched each other, their rapid breathing intertwined into a web.
He stroked her red lips with his fingertips and asked in a low voice, "Do you still dare to attack me?"
Lin Panpan smiled and raised her head, then pecked him on the lips again: "You dare..."
This caused the man to lower his head again, drowning his unfinished words in a long kiss.
The next day, Lin Panpan spent a day drawing the blueprint.
Gu Mobai looked at the dimension markings and the flowing curved designs, causing his pupils to shrink sharply.
"This... this is even more stunning than the work of my professional designers!"
He suddenly looked up, his eyes filled with shock and fear, and his voice rose unconsciously: "Wife, how come you have so many things? I never dreamed that you could even draw architectural designs!"
Lin Panpan leaned against the door frame and chuckled: "I learned it."
"I have read a lot of information on my own over the years." Lin Panpan said lightly.
What's more, she also has memories of her past life. The memories of repeatedly modifying the design at the hotel construction site suddenly surged up, including those red eyes and worn gloves.
All the days and nights when he gritted his teeth and argued with the construction team when they questioned him, now turned into a light smile on the corner of his mouth.
When she turned around, the setting sun gilded her profile. "What do you think? If it's okay, let's proceed according to this plan."
Gu Mobai was still in shock, his Adam's apple rolling up and down for a long time before he found his voice again: "It's more than just no problem? This is simply...perfect!"
He suddenly rolled up the blueprint carefully, reached out and clasped her wrist, saying, "Wife, I don't want you to go to the hospital. I can't bear it..."
Lin Panpan hugged him and said, "Gu Mobai, why are you so childish?"
"Hmph! Then can I come to the hospital to see you when I'm free?"
Lin Panpan coughed and said, "What's so good about it? We'll be very busy if we really go to the hospital."
"Wife..."
"Okay! You can come to see me when you are free, but I may not have time to take care of you." Lin Panpan said.
"Okay, I'll take you to the hospital tomorrow morning." Gu Mobai said.
The next day, Lin Panpan reported directly to the hospital. She walked into the office and saw that it was a mess.
The moment she pushed open the office door, Lin Panpan suddenly stopped.
The office was a mess, the desk was missing half of its drawer, two of the three chairs had collapsed seats, and the only intact one was missing a leg and was leaning against the corner, precariously.
There was dust floating in the air, and the smell mixed with disinfectant was particularly pungent.
"This is..." She tightened her grip on her white coat and glanced at the tilted filing cabinets.
The young nurse followed in with her shoulders hunched: "I'm so sorry, Doctor Lin."
She twisted the corner of her clothes, her voice trembling: "Some time ago, the emergency center was short of staff, so we moved all the tables and chairs that could be used here over there..."
Lin Panpan bent down to pick up the crumpled medical record folder on the ground, and when she looked up, her brows slightly furrowed:
"I don't blame you, but how can this be handled?
The hospital doesn't even have the funds to buy new tables and chairs?"
The young nurse's eyes suddenly turned red, tears stained her eyelashes: "Please don't be mean to me..."
She sniffed and took a step back, saying, "I'm just a nurse running errands. You shouldn't vent your anger on me..."
Through the crack in the half-open door, several nurses were whispering to each other. The girl in the floral nurse uniform deliberately raised her voice: "I don't know where this wild guy came from. Shen Ting is usually such a well-behaved child, and now he's giving her a show of force right after she arrives?"
