As the autumn marketing campaign for chili sauce at the picnic drew to a close, Chén Zhāoyáng and Lín Xiǎotáng busily shuttled back and forth between campus life and the family business, their affection growing deeper with every passing moment. That hazy, unspoken romance felt like the warm autumn sun—tender and wonderful—and every experience they shared became a solid foundation for their relationship.
Yet the ripples of life always arrive unannounced. The seafood diner run by Chén Zhāoyáng's family was thriving, and the demand for seafood was growing steadily. To ensure both freshness and a stable supply, Chén Zhāoyáng set his sights on the village's seafood cold storage facility. Built jointly by several local fishermen, the cold storage had long provided crucial support for the village's seafood trade. Recently, however, the facility had run into operational difficulties, and several shareholders were looking to sell their stakes. This news presented Chén Zhāoyáng with an opportunity.
"Xiǎotáng, I think this is a great opportunity. If we can acquire a stake in the cold storage, we won't just solve the diner's supply issues; we'll also be able to expand into new business," Chén Zhāoyáng said excitedly to Lín Xiǎotáng, a gleam of anticipation in his eyes.
