Chapter 342: Eat up all the lipstick

"Old Xu, you are a dog!"

"Why did you leave my contact information with others?!"

Xu Cheng sat at the table, listening to Li Qiuyang's angry questioning on the phone, holding the phone farther away from his ear.

"Qiu Yang, you are quite smart. How did you know it was left by me?"

"At first I thought she had called the wrong number, but then she added me on QQ and sent me an email, so I chatted with her. As soon as I heard her describe your appearance and voice, I knew it was you, a worthless bastard..."

Li Qiuyang spoke sweet words on the phone for a long time.

Xu Cheng scratched his ears and just laughed off Li Qiuyang's words.

"I told him you had a girlfriend, and he agreed not to bother me about it anymore."

"Okay, thanks."

"Oh, by the way, that girl also said something. She said that after you left, the man who had left your dad's room went back again, and your dad seemed to have been drinking a lot. Where did Uncle Xu go to drink?"

“…”

Without answering Li Qiuyang's question, Xu Cheng fell into deep thought.

When he left the restaurant, Lin Wanzhou's father was still in a frustrated state as the investor had left. It seemed that he no longer cared about his health because of the investment.

Seeing another call coming in, he said a few words to Li Qiuyang Congming and hung up, then answered Su Yu's call.

"Hey, Sister Su Yu."

"Boss Xu, I asked about the matter you asked me to do..."

Su Yu asked around with investors he knew in the industry, and learned from a friend that Lin Wanzhou's father's company was indeed facing funding problems recently.

Although Lin Qingyuan has been looking for investment everywhere recently, everyone feels that the transportation industry is a mess at this time and is unwilling to take over, let alone be a blame at this time.

Of course, in the capital environment, this is another game.

Even though Lin Wanzhou's father's company is a mess, it is at least a piece of meat, and the capitalists will not give up on it. As long as they slowly wear away Lin's father's patience and persistence like a pack of wolves, and then buy it out at a low price, there will still be profits to be made.

So at this time, even if Lin Wanzhou's father drank himself to death at the table, he probably wouldn't get a penny from the investors.

This is a common understanding among everyone in the capital market. No one is willing to break the rules, and there is no reason to do so.

After all, no one has a grudge against money.

Even Lin Wanzhou's mother Gao Manman was powerless at this time. After all, the money was public, not hers, and the transportation industry had basically nothing to do with the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology. If Gao Manman wanted to do something, she would have to bear legal responsibility.

After hanging up the phone, Xu Cheng first called to ask about Lin Wanzhou's father's condition.

"Uncle drank too much again today?"

Lin Wanzhou was surprised.

"How do you know? My dad came home drunk today and was scolded by my mom."

"Did you drink too much?"

"It's not as serious as the last few times. I vomited a few times and took some hangover medicine. I'm asleep now."

"Did it scare you?"

When Xu Cheng asked this question, Lin Wanzhou felt a warm feeling in her heart. She didn't deny it and just agreed gently.

"Drinking is really harmful, Xu Cheng, don't drink like this when you do business in the future."

"Um."

Xu Cheng agreed.

After hanging up the phone again, the boy tapped the table with his fingers and fell into deep thought.

If Lin Wanzhou's father's business fails, the impact on Lin Wanzhou's family will undoubtedly be huge.

Not in terms of wealth.

From Xu Cheng's observation over the years, it seems that Lin Wanzhou's parents have always been in a relationship where the woman is stronger than the man.

Father Lin has made many aggressive moves over the years, like the No Limits incident in junior high school that forced Xu Cheng to find a way to solve, which is the best proof of this.

This time, the company has encountered such problems. The secret relationship in Lin Wanzhou's family will be broken, and it will become a situation where the woman is strong and the man is weak. How will Lin's father feel then?

The fact that Lin's father refused to tell his wife about this matter showed that he was afraid of losing the father's halo in this family. If this continued, the old couple might have some conflicts because of this matter. Xu Cheng could foresee these consequences.

Of course, this is just one of the impacts.

It was impossible for Lin Wanzhou not to be hit hard by the sudden change in his family.

When Xu Cheng thought about how she would be sad, he felt his heart shrink a few times.

So no matter what, he couldn't just stand by and watch this happen.

Something must be done.

But Xu Cheng has no idea how to do it.

In the next few days, Xu Cheng inquired again and found out that Lin's father still had not obtained a reliable investment.

In addition, because Xu Cheng had noticed Lin Wanzhou's father, whenever he occasionally ran into him in the community and greeted him, he could see a hint of sadness between his brows.

The passing of summer won't be slowed down by your daydreaming.

Just like this extremely hot temperature, it won’t cool down much just because you don’t like it.

Soon it was time to pick up the notice.

The mailing address for most of

Lin Wanzhou was not afraid that the two of them coming to school together would cause any rumors. It seemed that they had always been like this for so many years and they were used to it, so there were no rumors around.

This was the effect of Xu Cheng's prestige. Although they usually got along well with each other, except for those who were really close to him like Li Qiuyang, no other students dared to make excessive jokes.

"Oh my god, we just graduated and already they're planning on renovating the playground?"

“The cafeteria has also been renovated!”

"I heard that all the computers in the computer room have been replaced!"

After the college entrance examination, the classmates in the class met each other for a rare occasion and soon started chatting lively with each other.

"Xu Cheng, have you noticed?" Lin Wanzhou said in a low voice while standing beside Xu Cheng.

The boy was strange.

"What did you find?"

"Many of my classmates are no longer the same as they were in their senior year of high school ."

"What's different? I hope you haven't been infected with any biological virus."

"Nonsense again."

Lin Wanzhou patted him and said, "Be serious. Don't you feel that they are more or less different from before?"

Xu Cheng then realized what she was talking about.

Girls are indeed more observant. If Lin Wanzhou hadn't reminded him, he might not have noticed.

Some girls have started to wear light makeup, and their hair is no longer as plain as it was in high school, but has been permed or dyed.

As for most of the boys, they also looked a little cleaner, started wearing watches and dressed less sloppily.

"We are not children anymore. You are wearing lipstick now."

"That was my defense. I was afraid you would kiss me."

"Lin Wanzhou, I know what color your lipstick is." Xu Cheng suddenly said.

The girl is weird.

What's the name of the color of her lipstick, bean paste color? Xu Cheng actually knows this?

He spoke with half belief and half doubt.

"What color, you say?"

"It's your protective color."

“…”

As students with excellent academic performance, Xu Cheng and Lin Wanzhou were called by the school to take photos for the honor roll.

It was already evening when the photo shoot ended. Looking at the fiery red sunset over the playground, Lin Wanzhou raised his head to look at the figure in front of him. His memory suddenly went back to that time a year ago when they witnessed two honor roll students kissing on the playground.

The girl found it interesting and pulled on Xu Cheng's clothes.

"Do you remember..."

She was about to speak, but found that her words were exactly the same as Xu Cheng's.

The two of them looked at each other, as if they could tell what the other wanted to say, and they smiled at each other.

"Let's kiss once too," Xu Cheng suggested.

The girl felt panic and a little excited.

"Are you not afraid of being poisoned?"

"It doesn't matter if I get poisoned to death by you today, Lin Wanzhou." Xu Cheng whispered, "I'm going to eat all your lipstick."

He already knew about the toxicity of lipstick, so he wouldn't be scared by the shield the girl found.

"I'll rub it all over your face!"

While the boy was not paying attention, Lin Wanzhou took the lead, stood on tiptoes and kissed him.

On the way home with the notice, Lin Wanzhou's face was still flushed.

Xu Cheng shrank his neck like a thief, wiping his face with his hands from time to time.

"Do you dislike me?" Lin Wanzhou pouted.

Xu Cheng explained, "No, it would be so embarrassing to be seen like this..."

"snort."

Lin Wanzhou looked at him and smiled, "Who asked you to bully me? Why do you have to go to school to get the notice? It would be better if it was delivered directly to my home. See if you still have the chance to bully me."

"There's nothing I can do. Logistics is at this level now. How can I deliver it to your home..." Xu Cheng muttered to himself, and suddenly his eyes lit up.

logistics?!

The problem that had been bothering him for days finally showed a glimmer of hope for a solution.

"You reminded me well, Lin Wanzhou!"

"???"

Lin Wanzhou looked at him in confusion as he was filled with excitement. She thought he looked both adorable and helpless, so she hummed and cursed him in a low voice.

"Neuropathy."

Xu Cheng rubbed her head.

"Who do you like then?"

Of course the girl still scolded him, then muttered softly.

"Neuropathy."

…

The next day.

Xu Cheng ran to Su Yu's house.

The community where Su Yu lives is not far from the company, and his house is very tidy. Xu Cheng noticed that there are some figures and other things placed there. He was a little surprised that Su Yu actually has such a hobby.

Sitting down on the coffee table, Su Yu poured a glass of juice and placed it in front of him.

For Su Yu, getting along with this young boss was generally comfortable.

“Which transportation company are you going to invest in?”

"Well, I have made up my mind about this matter. Don't worry, I am not acting rashly and recklessly for love. I have my own considerations."

When Su Yu heard Xu Cheng say this, the worries in his heart immediately dissipated a little.

In her eyes, Xu Cheng is indeed very different from other boys of his age.

After she learned about the relationship between Xu Cheng and Lin Qingyuan, she had been worried that Xu Cheng would suddenly do something irrational in a moment of impulse.

The company's money is his after all. As a company manager, how can she have the ability to persuade others not to help her future father-in-law?

Although he is really prepared to do so now, since Xu Cheng said that he has considered it, it means that he has his own plans.

She looked at Xu Cheng quietly. As a subordinate, she certainly couldn't take the initiative to say something like "I want to hear your ideas". She just waited for Xu Cheng to explain to her.

"Let's see how much Lin Qingyuan plans to ask for. If the price is right, I might even want to buy out this transportation company."

“Do you think the transportation industry is promising?”

“I don’t know much about the transportation industry . After I take over, I plan to transform the company into a logistics company.”

“Logistics?”

Su Yu couldn't keep up with Xu Cheng's jumping thoughts for a while.

"Why is it so sudden? One moment you're talking about transportation, the next moment you're talking about logistics. Do you know that these two industries are very different?"

"Jinghai Bank has a lot of loan quotas approved, which is just right for this project." Xu Cheng said to himself, "Don't worry, I've already learned about this. Logistics includes more warehousing, secondary packaging and processing than transportation."

“I…I…”

Su Yu wondered why she should be so relieved, since the company wasn't hers anyway, but she still reminded him out of concern.

"Shouldn't you research the market conditions first? This all happened too suddenly."

"The market is easy to understand. Just look at online shopping now."

"Peach treasure?"

“Have you ever tried buying something online ?”

“I bought it for the first time a few days ago.”

"What did you buy?"

"Why am I telling you this?"

Su Yu glared at Xu Cheng warily, but Xu Cheng continued talking as if he didn't notice what she said.

"The relationship between the logistics industry and the e-commerce industry is like a rising tide that lifts all boats. E-commerce has been slowly rising in recent years. Taobao has taken down eBay, and they are indeed doing better than eBay. One day, offline stores may be affected by online stores."

Su Yu watched Xu Cheng calmly talking while drinking juice. She found it hard to imagine that the future of stores would be affected by these online stores. This was too crazy.

"But the... the things I bought were of very poor quality. It was a terrible experience."

"It's always rough at the beginning. We need to give these new things a process of development. They have their shortcomings, but the most terrible thing is that these defects can be corrected. Then we say that they have potential and qualifications."

“…”

Su Yu listened to this boss who was much younger than him talking about this, and for a moment he was unable to refute it.

"Is that what you're going to tell the bank?"

"Of course, it still needs some polishing. I plan to tell them that we are in e-commerce, and logistics is part of e-commerce anyway. This is more in line with our Internet company's project concept. The money is with us, so don't be too restrained. The development in recent years has been too fast. It is enough to find a suitable reason for the bank people."

“…”

Su Yu listened to his convincing words and for a moment he could not find any reason to refute his actions .

She found it amazing just thinking about it.

If I remember correctly, the investment in the bank was approved by his girlfriend's mother, right?

Now he uses the money approved by his girlfriend's mother to acquire his girlfriend's father's company.

It's hard to tell how much one can gain from this...

Huh.

The more Su Yu looked at Xu Cheng, the more frightened he became.

This little boy...

How come he has become such a smart guy at such a young age!

I still had to be respectful, "Since you have made up your mind, boss, I will follow your instructions."

"Well, thank you, Sister Su Yu." Xu Cheng thanked her and continued, "There is one more thing I want to talk about. I don't want to be involved in this matter, and I don't want Lin Qingyuan to know that I am the one who acquired it. So, Sister Su Yu, please help me run errands."

"How dare I disobey you, boss?"

Su Yu didn't find it strange. Xu Cheng had such an idea probably because he was afraid of being too awkward with the old man. It was completely understandable.

"Sister Su Yu, there is something I can't handle, I need you to cooperate with me."

"What's up?"

"......" Xu Cheng then told Su Yu his thoughts.

This time, he not only wanted to save his "future father-in-law" from danger, but also wanted to teach him a lesson.

Sometimes health is more important than career.

He didn't want to drive the old man to the hospital in the middle of the night.

Su Yu looked at Xu Cheng with a secretly frightened heart.

"You're serious."

Xu Cheng nodded.

Su Yu was greatly shocked.

Is this how you deal with your future father-in-law?

If he knew...
