Chapter 284 It seems you are ready
"Sister Qin, I think we should put things on the table." Su Ming's tone was serious, "I know there are some things between us that need to be clarified."
Qin Huairu looked at Su Ming's serious expression, and a trace of doubt surged in her heart: "What's the matter?"
Su Ming pondered for a moment, then said: "There can be no more misunderstandings between us. I am grateful for your support and help, but I think we can only be business partners, not husband and wife."
Qin Huairu felt disappointed after hearing this, but she didn't show it: "I understand. I never thought that things between us would develop to that point."
Su Ming breathed a sigh of relief, as if relieved: "That's good, I hope we can maintain our current relationship, do business together, and support each other."
The two shook hands tacitly, as if to express respect and understanding for each other's decision.
However, in the days that followed, although they tried to maintain their cooperative relationship, the distance between them seemed to be getting farther and farther. They rarely talked as intimately as before, and rarely spent their free time together.
On a sunny afternoon, Su Ming was walking alone in the yard, feeling a little heavy-hearted. He didn't know if he had made the right decision, and he even regretted making the suggestion.
Just then, he saw Qin Huairu standing on the other side of the yard. Her expression was a little melancholy, as if she was thinking about something.
"Sister Qin, what are you thinking about?" Su Ming walked over and asked with concern.
Qin Huairu raised her head and smiled slightly: "I was thinking about our cooperation. We still need more efforts."
Su Ming nodded, and a warm feeling surged in his heart: "Yes, we need to work harder, I believe we can do better."
They walked to the small pavilion in the yard together, sat down and began to discuss business matters. Although their relationship had changed, they still had a common goal, which was to make the business of the Siheyuan better and better.
One morning, Su Ming stood in front of the gate of the courtyard, staring at the scene before him. The wind gently brushed across his face, bringing a hint of coolness, but his heart was as heavy as lead.
"Su Ming, what's wrong with you? You look troubled." Yan Bugui walked up to him and asked with concern.
Su Ming took a deep breath and said, "Uncle, I want to talk to you about the second phase of the project."
Yan Bugui's expression changed. He knew that Su Ming had always had reservations about this project. He said in a deep voice, "Su Ming, what do you think?"
Su Ming stared into the distance and said carefully: "I think we should abolish all departments related to the second phase project."
Yan Bugui looked at Su Ming in surprise: "This is a big decision, are you sure?"
Su Ming nodded: "Yes, I have thought about it. This project is not good news for our courtyard house. I don't want to see it cause any impact on our courtyard."
Yan Bugui hesitated for a moment, then nodded: "Okay, I'll take care of it immediately."
Su Ming felt relieved, knowing that he had made the right decision. Although this decision might cause some twists and turns, he believed it was for the future of Siheyuan.
A few days later, Yan Bugui decisively announced the decision to abolish all departments related to the second phase of the project. This news caused a sensation inside and outside the courtyard. Some people supported it, some opposed it, but in any case, the decision had been implemented.
Su Ming stood in the yard, looking at this ancient courtyard, his heart filled with emotion. He knew that he had made the right choice, and he was willing to give everything to protect the history and memory of this land.
In the following days, although the second phase of the project was cancelled, the business of the Siheyuan became more prosperous, with tourists coming in an endless stream and business booming. Su Ming and Yan Bugui worked together to turn this ancient courtyard into a prosperous commercial center, laying a solid foundation for the future of the Siheyuan.
On a sunny morning, Su Ming came to the gate of the courtyard, ready to start his new day. He was in a relaxed and happy mood, after all, this was the first time in his life that he acted as the second uncle's agent and watched the gate for the second uncle.
Standing at the gate, Su Ming felt a special sense of responsibility. Although it was just a simple task of guarding the gate, it was of great significance to him. The second uncle has always been an important figure in the courtyard. His responsibility is not only to guard the gate, but also to represent the respect and cherishment for this land.
"Su Ming, is this your first time guarding the gate for the second uncle today?" A housekeeper from the old courtyard came over and asked with concern.
Su Ming nodded and said with a smile: "Yes, I will do my best."
The old housekeeper smiled and patted Su Ming on the shoulder: "Don't worry, you are the pride of our courtyard, I believe you can handle this task."
Su Ming's heart warmed, and he looked at the old housekeeper's back with gratitude, then turned and walked towards the door. He took out an ancient key, gently inserted it into the keyhole, and then opened the door.
The sun shone through the gaps between the leaves, and the white light danced in the yard, illuminating Su Ming's figure. He stood in front of the gate, looking around, and everything seemed peaceful and harmonious.
Suddenly, a figure flashed by, and Su Ming looked up and found that it was an old man walking slowly. He was one of the elders in the courtyard, with rich life experience and profound cultural heritage.
"Good morning, Second Uncle." Su Ming bowed respectfully to the old man.
The old man smiled slightly and nodded: "Su Ming, it seems that you are ready."
Su Ming nodded and smiled, "Yes, I will do my best to protect the courtyard."
The old man's gaze lingered on Su Ming for a moment, and then he slowly said: "Su Ming, although guarding the gate is a simple task, it contains profound meanings. You must learn to pay attention to every detail and protect the dignity and glory of this land."
Su Ming listened silently, and a sense of enlightenment surged in his heart: "I understand, Second Master, I will fulfill my duties with all my heart."
The old man nodded with satisfaction, then slowly walked into the yard, leaving Su Ming standing alone in front of the gate.
All morning, Su Ming stood in front of the gate, watching every person who passed by vigilantly. Although this was a simple task, he regarded it as an honor and a responsibility. He hoped that through his efforts, everyone on this land could feel his respect and cherishment for the Siheyuan.
