With five cars forming a motorcade, the group set off from the villa in a grand procession.
Jiang Ning drove the Lamborghini sports car, with Su Meng and Mengmeng in the passenger seat.
Li Yao, Su Yunlong, and Liu Mengyan rode in a stretched Lincoln, driven by a bodyguard and chauffeur.
Three SUVs, driven by two of Su Yunlong's bodyguards, led the way and followed behind, clearing the path and providing security.
Their destination was Heavenly Spring Mountain, located in the suburbs of Cangnan City.
The impressive procession drew curious and envious glances from pedestrians and drivers alike.
"Honey, the way Dad's making a scene... isn't this a bit too flashy?" Jiang Ning said with a wry smile.
He had originally planned to drive the BMW Su Meng had given him, but his father-in-law strongly objected. As a result, he had to take Su Meng's Lamborghini sports car instead.
Su Meng said helplessly, "Dad's always been like this. Just focus on checking if the site is suitable, dear. Don't worry about the negotiation details."
Jiang Ning shook his head helplessly. "Alright!"
He turned to Mengmeng and smiled. "Mengmeng, let's continue learning English."
Mengmeng clapped her chubby hands excitedly and said in English, "Okay, Daddy! Mengmeng is super happy today!"
*Ding!*
*Congratulations, Host! You've gained 3 points of Mengmeng's 'Super Dad' value.*
Jiang Ning's lips curled upward as he replied in fluent English, "From now on, Mommy and Daddy will make sure Mengmeng is this happy every day."
Mengmeng's eyes crinkled into crescent moons as she said in her sweet, childish voice, "Really? Then Mengmeng loves Mommy and Daddy the most!"
Jiang Ning deliberately asked in English, "Of course it's true. If Mommy and Daddy can't make Mengmeng happy every day, will Mengmeng stop loving them?"
Hearing this, Mengmeng panicked slightly, realizing she'd said the wrong thing out of sheer joy. She quickly shook her head and explained, "No! No! Whether Mommy and Daddy make Mengmeng happy every day or not, Mengmeng will always love Mommy and Daddy the most!"
***
Su Meng, standing nearby, watched Jiang Ning and Mengmeng converse in English. Their fluency was so natural that she couldn't help but marvel inwardly.
She noticed that Mengmeng's English had improved dramatically in just a few days. After Jiang Ning finished speaking, Mengmeng would respond immediately, as if she had been studying English for years. Gone were the days of hesitation, pauses, and the awkward mix of Chinese and English she used to speak.
Su Meng gazed at Jiang Ning, her eyes slightly dazed. The more she looked at him, the more mysterious and unfathomable her husband seemed.
He was simply too "enchanting." The sheer breadth of his knowledge was astounding, and in every field, he reached the level of a grandmaster.
Su Meng even began to entertain the illusion that her husband wasn't truly from Earth, but some kind of divine being.
Every day she saw Jiang Ning, he seemed to grow even more handsome, always surprising her with something new.
Take his cooking, for example. Each meal he prepared was more exquisite than the last, leaving her craving more with every bite.
And then there was Mengmeng. After spending so little time with Jiang Ning, her English had improved by leaps and bounds, making her sound like a child who had grown up abroad.
All of this, naturally, was due to Jiang Ning.
"Husband, you're too enchanting," Su Meng couldn't help but blurt out.
"Huh? Honey, what did you just say?" Jiang Ning, who was in the middle of a lively English conversation with Mengmeng, heard Su Meng's words and wondered if he'd misheard.
*She's not a woman, so how can she call me a 'demon'?"* Jiang Ning thought to himself.
"No, I meant you're so amazing, husband!" Su Meng quickly explained.
"Of course! Daddy is the most, most, most amazing dad in the whole world!" Before Jiang Ning could respond, Mengmeng chimed in proudly, as if praising her father was as delightful as praising herself.
An hour later, the motorcade arrived at the foot of Heavenly Spring Mountain.
The scenery was picturesque: three small hills encircled a lake, with the Heavenly Spring Water Factory nestled at the base of the mountains.
Boss Jiang, the factory owner, had been notified in advance and was standing at the gate, waiting to greet them respectfully.
When the line of luxury cars pulled up to the factory gate, and bodyguards stepped out to open the doors, Boss Jiang's nerves immediately tightened.
As the owner of a small water factory, he had never witnessed such a display of wealth and power from a multi-billion dollar corporation. Cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
He hurried to Su Yunlong's car and bowed respectfully.
After Su Yunlong, Liu Mengyan, and Li Yao alighted, Boss Jiang rushed forward and asked, "Hello, may I ask who you are?"
Li Yao stepped forward quickly to introduce the group. "Boss Jiang, this is Chairman Su of the Su Group, along with his wife. This is President Su, the current head of the group, and her husband, Mr. Jiang. And this is Secretary Li."
After hearing the introductions, Boss Jiang hastily wiped the sweat from his hands on his pants before extending both hands to shake hands with Su Yunlong and the others one by one.
Su Yunlong smiled slightly and teased, "Boss Jiang, no need to be nervous. You're not planning to keep us standing outside, are you?"
"Oh, oh, right, right. My apologies, I'm just a bit flustered. Chairman Su, Mrs. Su, President Su, Mr. Jiang, Secretary Li—please come inside." Boss Jiang hurriedly gestured for them to enter.
Jiang Ning and the group followed Boss Jiang into the Heavenly Spring Water Factory, touring its facilities and layout along the way.
The factory was currently closed, with no employees on duty, but its construction appeared to be quite solid.
"Boss Jiang, your equipment looks quite new, and the building design is quite standard. Why are you suddenly looking to sell?" Su Yunlong asked after the tour.
Boss Jiang's face flushed with embarrassment as he honestly explained, "To be frank, Chairman Su, I've invested a tremendous amount of capital and time in the factory's equipment and layout.
However, marketing and expansion are my weaknesses.
I previously hired a marketing director at a high salary, but he was poached by a competitor. After that, I tried several senior marketing managers, but none of them proved capable."
"The initial funds are almost depleted. We can't hold on for another year; we'll run out of money soon. We have no choice but to either sell the water factory or see if there are any investors willing to buy a stake."
Su Yunlong asked, "Oh, I see. Boss Jiang, this is the Heavenly Spring Water Factory, right? I was wondering, is the spring water located on the mountain? Is the supply sufficient?"
Boss Jiang patted his chest and assured him, "Chairman Su, rest assured, the water supply is absolutely sufficient. The spring is on Heavenly Spring Mountain, and we've laid pipes to bring it down. All the water has been tested and meets all standards."
After speaking, Boss Jiang led Su Yunlong into the reception room.
"Boss Jiang, may I go up the mountain to take a look?" Jiang Ning asked at that moment.
Next, the father-in-law and Boss Jiang began negotiations. Jiang Ning didn't want to get involved; after all, Su Meng had warned him in the car. Besides, his main goal this time was to take Mengmeng out to play and casually check out the facilities.
Boss Jiang quickly replied, "Of course, Mr. Jiang. Just exit the factory and turn right. There's a path that leads directly to the summit of the mountain."
Jiang Ning nodded. "Alright, thank you. Dad, Mom, I'll leave the rest to you. I'll take Mengmeng up the mountain to play for a while."
Su Yunlong waved his hand. "Go ahead, go ahead, but be sure to take good care of Mengmeng."
Jiang Ning smiled and nodded. "Don't worry."
