Chapter 274: Chapter 274: The Weak Dwell on Dilemmas, the Strong Resolve Mistakes

"Mr. Lin, I am extremely sorry about the matter with Tian Jinzhu," after much hesitation, Jia Liang finally expressed his stance.

Lin Chuxia nodded, "I know."

"No, Mr. Lin, it was my negligence. I didn’t think things through and was used by others. I let Mr. Lin down. I really didn’t expect him to deceive me. When Houzi and I retired, he wasn’t with us. I never complained; after all, with our backgrounds, quitting that life, we might not even have been able to scrape a living. This time when he came to find me, I was actually happy, but I didn’t expect..."

There’s nothing more painful than being betrayed by a trusted brother.

Moreover, this incident also nearly implicated the company.

"Actually, I’ve had my suspicions about Tian Jinzhu for a while now. Knowing what kind of person he is, we’ve known him long enough to understand. He’s different from Houzi, never listens to anyone. When Houzi and I retired, he looked down on us. Houzi kindly tried to persuade him and even got scolded by him. Even so, when he came to me, I still chose to trust him, because he was a brother, and I wanted to see him change."

Jia Liang never thought of himself as a kind-hearted person, but towards his brothers, he thought highly of his influence—even felt he could reform them.

He was really foolish.

Lin Chuxia patted his shoulder, "This isn’t your fault, but you shouldn’t hold grudges without learning from them. Take this as a lesson, and it also helped you see a person clearly."

"Mr. Lin, rest assured, next time I will not act so impulsively out of loyalty. I will work hard and make the bun shop in the city as popular as ours in Ancheng County."

Jia Liang clenched his fist; he must not let down Mr. Lin’s trust.

"I believe in your capability," Lin Chuxia looked at him, "Jia Liang, I’ve always had high hopes for you. Although you can’t be said to be completely blameless this time, decisive handling could have kept the incident from affecting us. That’s what showcases one’s capabilities. Only the weak dwell on problems, while the strong correct them."

The opening day of the bun shop in the city might not have been as grand as the opening day of Xiyang Food Factory, but it was still very lively and festive.

Lin Chuxia knew that Hou Xiaobao had asked for time off along with Su Wensong to attend the opening ceremony of the bun shop; he simply had them use the factory’s 121 car, turning a private affair into official business.

For a new store’s opening, having an experienced person in the kitchen is essential, and Lin Chuxia planned to have Zhang Guilan stationed there for a while.

It worked out that they would go together, so Hou Xiaobao drove them both.

Zhang Guilan, now experienced through involvement in prior events, was in charge of the back of the bun shop.

The ingredients were already prepared; kneading dough, preparing meat fillings, and chopping vegetables, the kitchen staff worked efficiently under her direction, and soon, the steamer trays filled with buns were on the stove.

As firecrackers sounded outside, her buns were just coming out of the steamer.

Lin Chuxia attended the opening ceremony, not intending to steal the spotlight but rather acting as a behind-the-scenes owner, leaving the limelight to Jia Liang.

Jia Liang was dressed appropriately in a white shirt and black trousers today.

He probably thought his bald head was unsightly and wore a chef’s cap, standing at the entrance of the bun shop speaking courteously.

With this image, where was the trace of his past as a gang leader?
