Chapter 368: The Soft‑Waisted Educated Youth Is Spoiled Rotten by Her Boyfriend Again 31

The workers below all gathered together, each with a happy, honest smile on their face.

Jin Chen first had Guli, Huang Yun, and the three junior workers each put on the fashionable and affordable clothing, then displayed them on stage for everyone to see.

The affordable set came in coordinated outfits as well as separate pieces, with colors mainly simple and understated; to show its durability, Liu Da Zhuang even wore a set while doing exercises, prompting the audience below to cheer.

As for the fashionable line, both design and fabric had to be bolder; this style was modeled by Huang Yun and Guli.

Huang Yun wore a sweet, cute outfit; the waist bow matched the dress color harmoniously, eye‑catching without being overpowering.

Guli, meanwhile, wore a sexy V‑neck design, with a pearl chain replacing the traditional tie at the collar, giving her a more refined air.

The high‑end line was not modeled by anyone.

Jin Chen had Songshang contact the overseas traders he had met recently, sending two sets directly, and had the sales staff who had studied abroad begin one‑on‑one after‑service according to the training.

At the ribbon‑cutting, Xu Xiaoliu ran outside and set off a string of firecrackers.

Amid the crackling din, Jin Chen and Mo Zhinan exchanged smiles and jointly cut the red ribbon.

After the ribbon‑cutting, Jin Chen deliberately walked over and hugged Mo Zhinan.

Everyone was immersed in joy, and few noticed this side, so even though they were outside, Mo Zhinan did not appear to push Jin Chen away.

"Honey, you look happy."

Jin Chen took advantage of the stage lights to kiss the side of the face of the person in his arms.

"Mm, very happy." Mo Zhinan nodded, her cheek rubbing against Jin Chen's palm, the joy in her almond eyes spilling over.

"From just a single design sketch to the finished garments now—it's really not easy." He said that.

Mo Zhinan previously didn't realize how many steps and procedures go into making a piece of clothing.

She also couldn't imagine that those lovely clothes would involve her in every step.

When she just saw them display the clothes, that feeling of happiness and pride was unprecedented.

And all of this was brought to her by Jin Chen.

Thinking of this, Mo Zhinan instinctively reached out and also wrapped her arms around Jin Chen from the waist, her voice clear and tinged with the lovers' exclusive coquettish tone.

"I'm really glad; I'm fortunate to have met you."

"What nonsense are you saying again?"

Jin Chen chuckled and whispered in his ear, "There's another surprise—I'll show you tonight."

"What surprise?"

Mo Zhian blinked her almond eyes.

The two words "surprise" plus tonight's time, combined with how long they've been together, made her think of Jin Chen's nightly roguish behavior.

This led him to think of things unsuitable for daytime.

Perhaps the youth's expression was too frank; Jin Chen chuckled lowly twice and gently pinched his slightly red, warm earlobe.

"What are you thinking about? Your ears are red like this—could it be…"

"Don't say it!"

Mo Zhinan quickly covered his mouth with her hand, gave him an annoyed look, and said, "It's clearly you who misled me first."

"Heaven and earth as my witness, I haven't."

Jin Chen innocently blinked his peach‑blossom eyes, and even with his mouth covered he tried to speak in a muffled voice, "How did I mislead you?"

"So what is the surprise?"

He pulled her back into his embrace and said, "All right, you'll find out tonight."

Jin Chen refused to say, and Mo Zhinan had no choice but to secretly anticipate tonight's arrival.

To celebrate the ribbon‑cutting, Xu Xiaoliu, who managed logistics, specially had people purchase plenty of fish, meat, chicken, and duck.

Not to mention the factory's meals—some workers said they didn't even get to eat this well during New Year's at home.

At noon, Jin Chen ate with everyone in the cafeteria and announced another piece of news.

Before starting production of the second batch, he and Mo Zhinan designed a set of work uniforms, had them made, and immediately issued three sets each for winter and summer to every worker.

He also had Lisan, the workshop production supervisor, show the pattern samples; they looked good, were comfortable to wear, and most importantly, were free!

Amid the lively, joyful atmosphere, today's ribbon‑cutting ceremony was considered satisfactorily concluded.

——

In the evening, the garment factory ended work on time.

To keep the fun going, Guli suggested they all go to the disco to dance tonight; the three junior workers and Lisan agreed, and even the elderly Songshang consented to join.

But Jin Chen and Mo Zhinan planned to go straight home.

Perhaps knowing they had something to do, Guli and the others teased them a bit and didn't press further.

Now only the two of them live in the small western‑style building; the three junior workers are often sent out on assignments, coming back late at night being routine, so they simply bought a new house not far from the factory, which is spacious and won't disturb Jin Chen.

On the drive home, Mo Zhinan leaned in the passenger seat, constantly wondering what the surprise would be.

They'd been together for several months; although they occasionally received surprises from Jin Chen, only today was it announced in advance, and it was mysterious.

The more she thought about it, the happier she became, even starting to rule out possible gifts in her mind.

At the red light, Jin Chen turned his gaze to his wife, whose eyes were full of starlight, and couldn't help but say, "Honey, you haven't stopped smiling all day—your teeth must be getting cold."

Mo Zhinan cupped her face in her hands, wrinkled her nose, and said, "Don't talk nonsense—I'm not a little kid."

He looked utterly adorable, and Jin Chen couldn't resist reaching out to pinch him, saying, "I'm not joking—you're my little one."

Even after being together this long, Mo Zhinan still wasn't used to Jin Chen's frequent sudden sweet nothings.

His jade‑like cheeks flushed slightly as he seized Jin Chen's hand, preventing him from touching his face further.

After a few seconds, he lowered his head and lightly bit his finger; though he didn't use much force, it still left a tooth mark.

After biting, as if admiring his trophy, Mo Zhenan turned her head to look at Jin Chen, her eyes sparkling.

"Does it hurt?"

Jin Chen drove with one hand; the hand his wife had seized suddenly turned the tables, and he lightly pinched the soft, delightfully feeling flesh of his cheek.

Not painful, like flirting.

Mo Zhinan: "……"

He threw Jin Chen's hand away, feeling that he could never outtalk Jin Chen.

——

After returning home, as soon as the car stopped, Mo Zhinan eagerly took Jin Chen's hand and led him inside.

Slow down, don't fall.

Jin Chen watched his wife run all the way to the upstairs bedroom and couldn't help reminding her.

Mo Zhinan finally saw the surprise gift.

It was a shirt with a very novel design, the fabric smooth and soft like embroidered silk, and the design was also very beautiful.

Recalling the free time Jin Chen had spent running to the workshop these past few days, Mo Zhinan's earlier doubts were finally resolved.
