Chapter 262: Would Xiaoyu Become Overweight?
After Nawa had endorsed the Lin family’s products, they immediately followed up with the deal. All that was left was the signing of the contract.
How could there have been a change in circumstances?
“It’s Fu Si. They used to be insignificant in comparison to our Lin Quan. However, Lin Quan has been going downhill over the past few years. Now, Fu Si has already surpassed us and has become one of the top brands in the country,” the marketing manager explained.
Despite that, Lin Yiqian was not upset. She could only feel a sense of sorrow.
Without her mother, Lin Quan’s business had begun to deteriorate.
It had been surpassed by many smaller and lesser-known brands.
‘Mommy, I’m done with my homework. When can we go home?’
‘Little Yi, just a little longer. We can go home after I finish translating this document.’
‘Little Yi, wait for a while. I’ll bring you somewhere with nice food after this call.’
Lin Yiqian recalled looking at her mother from across the desk. Before Jiang Yuexiang came to take care of Lin Yiqian, Lin Yiqian would always do her homework from across her mother each evening after school ended.
Once Lin Yiqian was done with her homework, she would find her mother still occupied with work.
At the time, Lin Quan was not very well-known yet. Lin Tianwan would be out to acquire business leads while Lin Yiqian’s mother looked after everything else in the company.
As her mother studied Biochemistry, she would sometimes be involved in research and development at the factory. There were creations of a few series of products that she was involved with.
‘Look, that’s the new product your mother, your uncles, and your aunts have worked together to develop. I feel a great sense of accomplishment when I see so many people buying it.’
‘Mommy will develop a new series of products for Little Yi. Once it gets into the international market, I will offer it as your dowry.’
However, that day never came.
Although Lin Yiqian’s mother could not finish what she had started, Lin Yiqian could fulfill her dying wish.
“Does this mean Yanbei Square favors Fu Si as well?” Lin Yiqian asked.
Wang Ming, the marketing manager, covered his mouth as he hesitated for a moment. “They have not given us a definite answer. They told us they would need to discuss it over a meeting before making a decision.”
“I understand. Fu Chenghai is in Shanghai now. Try to reach out to him and arrange for a meeting.” Lin Yiqian nodded.
“Do you want to meet Fu Chenghai?” Wang Yang asked in a doubtful tone.
Lin Yiqian knew what Wang Ming was concerned about. He was worried that they would not be able to book the meeting. Since Fu Chenghai’s parents owned Yanbei Square, he was the equivalent of Yanbei’s boss.
There were many other brands like Lin Yiqian’s that would try to meet with him.
If he agreed to meet each one of them, he would have no time to eat or sleep.
“Give it a try,” Lin Yiqian said as she was equally uncertain as to whether they could make it happen.
“Alright.”

As Gu Nianshen was not at home, Lin Yiqian was not keen on returning home early.
Lin Yiqian accompanied Xiaoyu to play outside until it was almost ten o’clock in the evening. As Xiaoyu had not fully recovered from his jetlag, he still seemed very much awake.
When he heard that they needed to go home, he made a fuss about wanting to eat.
Seeing how Xiaoyu’s limbs had gotten increasingly plump, Lin Yiqian was worried that he might become overweight.
However, she thought that it was unlikely based on the genes he inherited.
Gu Nianshen and Lin Yiqian both had an excellent physique.
As Lin Yiqian lowered her gaze to her body, she could see that each part of her body was lean.
She wondered if Gu Nianshen had ever been fat as a child. Before he entered primary school in the second grade, he had always lived with the Song family. He and Lin Yiqian had yet to become acquainted at the time.
Could he have been overweight as a child?
All of a sudden, Lin Yiqian became curious about Gu Nianshen’s physique when he was eight and younger. “Gu Nianshen, were you ever fat as a child?” She texted Gu Nianshen a message on WeChat.
