Back To The 80s: President's Doted Wife novel Chapter 1098

Chapter 1098: Chapter 1099: Not the Old Friend’s Daughter

As everyone sat down in the living room and the servants brought tea, Cheng Su asked Old Master Cheng, "What’s bothering you?"

"They’re just making a fuss. It’s nothing, just a bit of wheezing, no problem!" Old Master Cheng waved his hand and then started coughing again.

Cheng Su replied, "It’s already April, and the South is quite humid and hot. But this April weather can sometimes have big temperature differences, so you shouldn’t be too careless with the cold, sir."

"I know, I know," Old Master Cheng replied with a cheerful smile and asked, "Didn’t I tell you all, if you want to do business, look for our family’s second son! So why haven’t I seen you go? Could it be you think this old man is a con artist? Let me tell you, I was an old Red Army soldier!"

Cheng Su quickly said, "It’s not that we don’t believe you. We’ve just been busy out there running the market these days, and for now, we don’t need any help."

"Really?"

"How dare we lie to you? I’m just afraid that the old Red Army soldier who once wielded a big cannon would fire a shot at me!" Cheng Su joked.

Old Master Cheng burst into hearty laughter.

Cheng Yaozong then said, "I understand your company makes jam and has even won awards. Are you here in Guangcheng to pursue this?"

"If possible, I’d like to establish a branch here, or set up an agency, counters, things like that. After all, there are many opportunities in Guangcheng, and we want our business to grow," Cheng Su responded.

Cheng Yaozong nodded in agreement.

"If you are thinking of setting up counters or display cases, our department store might have opportunities for cooperation, and we could provide you a spot," Cheng Yaozong said.

Cheng Su was momentarily stunned, then stood up and bowed to him, saying, "Thank you so much in advance!"

Old Master Cheng fell into a melancholic silence, his eyes dimming.

"Old Master, I heard from Mr. Cheng that I resemble one of your old acquaintances. Is that right?" Cheng Su hesitated for a moment before asking.

"She was my younger sister," the old master sighed and said, "In those days, I joined the army to fight the Japanese, and she, talking about her patriotic spirit, wanted to protest against the Japanese. How could I let her go? We had a big fight, and I locked her up so she couldn’t leave. But she ended up picking the lock and running away. I had to set off for the military and couldn’t find her after looking for days. With no other choice, I left for the military campaign. After the liberation, I came back and searched for her like crazy, but all these years, I’ve never found her, not knowing if she’s dead or alive."

Cheng Yaozong handed over a photo, and Old Master Cheng, with reddening eyes, handed it to Cheng Su.

Cheng Su took a look and said, "I don’t really look like her!"

"No, you don’t, just have a similar aura. She, like you, was sweet-talking, stubborn, and once determined to do something, not even nine oxen could pull her back!" Old Master Cheng chuckled and sighed, "It’s just a pity that after all these years, I’ve still never found her!"
