Chapter 574 Inviting Du Hongfeng
Mr. Du smiled and said, "We've already had breakfast. Please sit down, Xiao Hao."
Du Wanrou said, "I'll go get ready, wait for me a moment."
Qin Hao nodded, "Go ahead."
After Du Wanrou went upstairs to put on makeup and get dressed, Qin Hao sat on the sofa and said to Mr. Du, "Uncle Du, do you know about the current Hua Mei Skincare products?"
Mr. Du said, "Of course, I know. My wife is using Hua Mei Skincare products for wrinkle removal and blemish treatment, and they are incredibly effective. Look at your aunt, doesn't she look seven or eight years younger?"
Feng Yun gave him a sideways glance, "Nonsense."
Qin Hao took a closer look at Feng Yun. He hadn't paid much attention before, but now that he did, she indeed looked much younger than before, probably around thirty-four or thirty-five, with no wrinkles on her face.
"Ms. Feng really does look a lot younger than before."
Mr. Du said, "I told you she looks younger, and she didn't believe it. Now that Xiao Hao says so, do you believe it?"
Feng Yun's face carried a smile, "This is all thanks to the cosmetics from Xiao Hao's company. Sometimes, they're impossible to buy."
Qin Hao said, "Ms. Feng, whenever you want them, just call me, and I'll have someone deliver them to you. Actually, I have something I would like to discuss with you."
Curiosity marked Mr. Du's expression, "What's the matter, Xiao Hao? Just say it."
Qin Hao said, "I plan to build Hua Mei branch companies in the Southwest and Xuannan District. Uncle Du, are you interested in helping me? Shares aren't an issue, and as for the position, you would be no less than Su Mingzhi."
Mr. Du and Feng Yun exchanged glances, unsure of how to answer. They wanted to agree...
Qin Hao continued, "Uncle Du, right now I don't fully trust Su Mingzhi, but I really can't find anyone else for this. Please help me."
Seeing that he put it that way, Mr. Du nodded, "Alright, then I'll sell my company here."
Qin Hao said, "Uncle Du, there's no need to sell. Just change the sign, and then I'll give you all the skincare formulas to start production. When the time comes, I'll give you twenty percent of the shares in Hua Mei Company. Aside from me, you'll be the largest shareholder."
With Hua Mei Company's market value nearing twenty billion Xuan Country Coins, twenty percent of the shares would be worth forty to fifty billion, equivalent to his entire company. Most importantly, Hua Mei Company's future growth potential was immeasurable.
Mr. Du nodded; this meant that Hua Mei Company would acquire Mr. Du's Ounuo Cosmetics Company in exchange for shares.
Qin Hao carried on, "Ms. Feng, you will handle the company's financial matters when the time comes. I don't trust Su Mingzhi."
Feng Yun nodded, "Don't worry, Xiao Hao. Your aunt will definitely take good care of the company's finances for you."
Qin Hao said, "Then I'll have to trouble Uncle Du and Ms. Feng."
Mr. Du smiled, "No problem, Xiao Hao. We're all family after all, it's only natural."
At that moment, Du Wanrou came down from upstairs. She had changed into fresh clothes, white as snow, pure and holy.
She walked up to Qin Hao's side and said with a smile, "Let's go."
Qin Hao said, "Uncle Du, Ms. Feng, please get ready. Today, I'll have Su Mingzhi contact you."
Mr. Du nodded, and the two of them stood up to see them out the door.
As Qin Hao walked home, holding Du Wanrou's hand, he looked at the items she was carrying and asked curiously, "Wan Rou, what's that in your hand?"
Du Wanrou replied, "It's a set of clothes I bought for Uncle, as well as some jewelry and anti-wrinkle and whitening skincare products for Auntie."
Qin Hao said, "My mom has plenty of skincare products."
Du Wanrou smiled and said, "That was given by you, this is from me, it's different."
The two soon arrived at home to find Mr. Qin and Mrs. Qin chatting with Han Meng and Qiao'er.
Upon seeing Qin Hao enter with a young woman full of grace, Mr. Qin and Mrs. Qin stood up and greeted them with a smile, "Xiao Hao is this Wan Rou?"
Du Wanrou revealed a sweet smile on her pretty face, "Hello Uncle, Auntie, I am Du Wanrou."
"Have a seat, Wan Rou. Xiao Hao often talks about you, saying you're gentle, elegant, beautiful, and virtuous. I didn't believe it before, but after seeing you today, Auntie is convinced," Mrs. Qin said as she took Du Wanrou's hand and sat down on the sofa with her.
Qin Hao thought to himself upon hearing his mother's words, Have I ever said these things?
Du Wanrou said with a smile, "Mr. Qin, this is the clothing I bought for you. Please try it on to see if it fits. If it doesn't, I'll return it."
After she had spoken, Du Wanrou took out the clothing, a Sun Yat-sen suit.
Qin Youguo quickly said, "Wan Rou, you don't need to buy anything for your uncle in the future. I just bought some yesterday."
Although he said this, he was actually very pleased because this was the clothes his future daughter-in-law had bought for him.
Having such a virtuous and sensible future daughter-in-law, Qin Youguo felt delighted!
Du Wanrou handed the clothing to Qin Youguo, "That was something you bought for yourself, Uncle, not by me, you should try it on, Uncle."
Unable to refuse her, Qin Youguo took the clothing and went back to his room to change.
Du Wanrou then took out skincare products and jewelry, "Auntie, these are the skincare products I bought for you. They reduce wrinkles, combat aging, and also have a whitening effect. My mom uses this brand, and it's very effective. And this jewelry too, let me help you put it on."
When she finished speaking, she intended to put the jewelry on Mrs. Qin, who said she could do it herself, but Du Wanrou insisted.
After putting the jewelry on Mrs. Qin, Mr. Qin walked out of the room. Qin Hao and the others turned to look and saw Qin Youguo dressed in the Sun Yat-sen suit, which made him look much more spirited than before.
Qin Hao said with a laugh, "Dad, you look great in those clothes, very distinguished."
Mrs. Qin nodded in agreement, "It's Wan Rou who knows how to pick the clothes. You look like a completely different person in that suit."
Mr. Qin smiled slightly, "Is that so? I think it's pretty good too. Wan Rou, your uncle will accept it; I won't be polite with you."
"Why would you be polite with me, Uncle, we're all family now," said Du Wanrou, a bit shyly.
Qin Youguo chimed in, "Yes, yes, family, we're family. Don't leave at noontime, I want you to try the fish I stewed."
Qin Hao spoke up, "Dad, we have to attend a high school reunion soon, so we won't be back for lunch."
Mr. Qin replied, "Oh, then we can do it another time."
Du Wanrou and Mr. and Mrs. Qin talked for a long time, and at ten twenty, Qin Hao and she took a car toward the Changle Hotel near Changle Second Middle School.
This was the largest ordinary hotel near Changle Second Middle School. It was rumored to be owned by a relative of one of the school's leaders, and business was quite good.
On the way to the Changle Hotel, Qin Hao said to Leng Xuan, who was driving, "Leng Xuan, after a while you can just drive the car back home. It's nearly New Year's; you should visit your family."
Leng Xuan replied, "No worries, Mr. Qin, I have already called my family."
Qin Hao insisted, "That's not good enough; your family is so close by in Jiangshan. If you don't visit, they might think I'm a heartless boss."
Leng Xuan reported, "Mr. Qin, I received news from Li Wenjun, he advised us to be cautious of assassins from the Blood Killing Organization."
