Chapter 434 Mysterious Scene
"Our Weibo Night seems to be held on the 21st as well."
"……oh."
Lin Wanzhou nodded in agreement softly, and the passing wind made the girl's hair sway gently.
"Ahhh, how could it be such a coincidence."
Xu Cheng scratched his hair a little madly.
The National Debate Finals is almost the highest honor hall of honor in domestic university debate competitions.
To enter the finals, you have to defeat countless top domestic universities and finally meet another team successfully.
During this period, Xu Cheng saw how much Lin Wanzhou put into this competition and how hard she worked.
Deep down, she also really wants me to be there, right?
"It doesn't matter. Your matter is more important. I can't do without you. As for my game, even without you, I will definitely get the MVP." Lin Wanzhou's tone was comforting.
"It's my fault. I didn't take this into consideration when the time was decided."
"Idiot, I didn't tell you at that time." Lin Wanzhou smiled and punched Xu Cheng lightly on the chest.
"And... maybe it's not the same time?"
She said tentatively.
A pair of crystal eyes looked at Xu Cheng's face, and there seemed to be a glimmer of hope in his eyes.
"That's possible." Xu Cheng thought for a moment, "How about this, as long as I'm free, I'll come over to your place right away."
Although he said this, Xu Cheng thought about it and realized that the schedule for that day was more than just a party.
The preparation process before this was also quite tedious, with the red carpet walk in the afternoon and the live broadcast of the ceremony in the evening...
This Weibo Night is of special significance. If he doesn’t keep an eye on these things personally, he will always feel uneasy.
"Don't be so nervous." Lin Wanzhou saw Xu Cheng's embarrassment and pinched his cheek playfully. "Don't worry, even if you can't come, I know you must be thinking about me. I am very reasonable and not so stingy."
"Aren't you stingy?"
"Of course."
"But before, if I touched your hand, you would step on my shoes for a whole day in revenge."
“…”
“…”
"You don't like it?"
"like!"
"……abnormal."
Feeling a little cold from the wind, the girl left him and got into the car alone, lying on the passenger seat. The front window of the car faced the bridge with railway tracks.
Xu Cheng also got into the car and closed the door. The sound of the wind in his ears just now disappeared without a trace.
Night had fallen, and in the dark wilderness, the two stayed quietly in the car.
Lin Wanzhou found it very strange. Under normal circumstances, she would not dare to come to such a dark and deserted place in the wilderness.
But now that she was with Xu Cheng, she no longer felt afraid. She looked up at the sparkling stars in the sky and felt that the starry sky was so deep and beautiful.
"Did you call me to come and see the stars?"
"No, I want to take you to see the train."
"train?"
Lin Wanzhou said in surprise, thinking that boys are too weird. It is indeed because of their different body structures and brain circuits that even the romance in their minds is different from that of girls.
Girls like to look at the stars, like to look at the sea, like to look at the flowers, like to look at the lakes... Boys don’t understand this, they are not romantic at all, and all they think about is taking their girls to see caterpillars.
Thinking that at least Xu Cheng took her to see a train, Lin Wanzhou felt a little comforted. At least he was much better than the other boys. A train is much bigger and longer than a caterpillar.
"But weren't there several trains passing by just now?"
“But I didn’t see what I wanted to see.”
"Scene?"
Lin Wanzhou reacted immediately.
Sure enough, her boy was very different, and things were far from as simple as watching the train.
"What scene?"
"Secret."
"whispering sound."
Lin Wanzhou snorted disdainfully.
The darkness made her feel a little lonely, so she couldn't help but rub against the passenger seat, moving closer to Xu Cheng. Her little hand groped over, found his big palm and reached inside.
However, Xu Cheng behaved out of character. Even though she had put her little hand into his palm, his fingers were loose and not clenched, which made Lin Wanzhou very dissatisfied.
"Xu Cheng."
The boy turned his head as if he didn't feel anything, "What?"
"hand."
Lin Wanzhou once again tried to pry Xu Cheng's fingers apart, wanting him to wrap his palm around her, but his fingers were still spread out loosely and did not hold her.
The girl pouted her lips, looking anxious and aggrieved, and made a dissatisfied hum in her throat, just like when she was a child and wanted to eat a lollipop but the adults didn't buy it for her.
"Woooa ...
"Ha ha."
Xu Cheng smiled and changed his sitting position, getting closer to Lin Wanzhou, and then gently held her small hand in his. His fingers just floated on the surface of her palm, and gently pressed her smooth skin a few times.
"Why, do you want it?" The boy's voice was full of magnetism and temptation.
Lin Wanzhou was stunned for a moment.
Who wants you to hold hands?
Not pulling?
That girl hasn’t pulled it yet!
When Lin Wanzhou got angry, he nodded vigorously and said something softly like the whimpering of a little animal.
"Um."
Xu Cheng became interested when he heard it and blinked excitedly.
"Then you have to tell me you want it..."
"???"
The girl was stunned, and the bad guy Xu continued to persuade her.
"You have to say, husband, I want you to hold my hand."
Lin Wanzhou almost exploded.
Roll, roll.
I wouldn't say such cheesy words!
"... Naohun, I... I want you to hold my hand..." the girl shyly opened her mouth and said in a nervous voice.
And the next second after the last word of this sentence fell, the girl's small hand was tightly grasped by Xu Cheng's hot palm, and soon their fingers were interlocked together. His thick fingers filled every gap between her fingers, which made Lin Wanzhou feel indescribably satisfied.
Once night comes, it quickly becomes intense.
Lin Wanzhou was soon not just satisfied with holding Xu Cheng's hand, but also rested her head on his shoulder.
"What on earth do you want me to see? Several trains have just passed by."
"Be patient, be patient. If you want to see that scene, you need a bit of luck."
"So mysterious."
Lin Wanzhou complained, and then a few traces of the past flashed in her eyes, "Xu Cheng, do you still remember when we were little and played at your grandmother's house in the countryside?"
Xu Cheng thought about it, but his memory was a little fuzzy.
"That was a long time ago."
"That was when I was in elementary school. I still remember it. There was a rice field next to your grandmother's house. A railway track was dug next to the rice field. You could hear the sound of the train whistle at your grandmother's house."
"…was it the time I got mad at you?"
Xu Cheng's memory gradually came back to him.
Lin Wanzhou was still young at that time, and her curiosity was at its peak. She wanted to call him to go see the train together, but Xu Cheng, an adult, thought it was meaningless and did not agree. After that, she slipped away without anyone noticing.
In the end, no one could find her until Xu Cheng remembered that she wanted to see the train and found her on the bridge over the railway track.
I remember that when I found her, she was lying alone next to the railing, trying to look down. Because she was not tall enough, she put a few stones under her feet.
"You also said that you got mad at me that day and scared me."
"I'm worried about you."
Xu Cheng was somewhat helpless, "You were so young at that time, what if something happened to you?"
"You are also a little brat, and you are lecturing me."
"Well……"
Xu Cheng didn't know how to explain it to her. Lin Wanzhou seemed happy again at this time.
“But I was quite happy afterwards.”
After being scolded by Xu Cheng and bursting into tears, the girl rode on his neck as compensation to comfort her, and finally saw the train she had longed to see.
As I thought about it, my face felt a little hot.
She could no longer remember the train ride that day, but the scene of herself riding on Xu Cheng's neck was still vivid in her mind.
"Time flies, we have grown up so fast."
"Well, I wasn't even in the third grade at that time, but now I'm in my third year. But Lin Wanzhou, have you ever thought about what you want to do in the future?"
"do what?"
The girl thought deeply for a while, then looked at him mischievously, "Isn't it good for me to do nothing and wait for you to support me?"
"Of course."
"Hee, even though I have no ambition, I do have some plans. I want to try to take the civil service exam after graduation."
"You want to go into politics?"
"yes."
Lin Wanzhou glanced at him, and then his expression gradually became serious.
"I've thought about it. Now that my mother is around, your career will be much easier. But what about when my mother gets old and retires? By then we should have already... been married. Of course, I will do something for you..."
Xu Cheng looked at her and touched her little face with some heartache.
"Zhou Zhou, you don't have to think so much. I don't want my career to become a burden in your life. I hope you can choose what you like."
"That's so selfish."
Lin Wanzhou shook his head. "That's what I think for now, but who can predict the future? Maybe after we have a child, I won't want to do anything else but be a..."
Lin Wanzhou was too embarrassed to say the last word, so Xu Cheng spoke tentatively.
"A good wife and a good mother?"
"I didn't say that."
The girl turned her head slightly away, as if trying to hide her blushing face. Fortunately, the night was dark enough that Xu Cheng couldn't see it even though he was very close.
“Can we still see it today?”
"I don't know. It's already late. Why not come back another day?"
"Well, okay."
Lin Wanzhou was a little depressed.
She understood that many things that happened would come another day and would never come again.
And the mystery that Xu Cheng wants to see with her may also become the mystery of her life.
…
In the past, Weibo Night, as a traffic festival, has attracted much attention from the outside world every year. With such popularity, it is natural that Sina will receive a lot of sponsorship fees.
This time, the outside world was not optimistic about the Weibo Night hosted by Xu Cheng.
In addition, Qingzhou is currently facing a siege by capital, and there are only a few sponsors.
Naturally, the bulk of the expenses will still fall on Qingzhou.
As for Wanshan, he was skeptical at the beginning and is still waiting to see the joke.
A grand ceremony that costs a huge amount of money may end up with a result that is not enough to cover the expenses.
After all, in the Internet industry, no company has ever won a comeback by relying on a party.
Some people even jokingly said that Qingzhou was having his last meal before execution.
“Who doesn’t want to have a good meal before being beheaded?” Qiao Yiming said to the investors.
The investor who was chatting with him was also very young. His name was Lu Xiaozhong. He was now in his early thirties and already the president of a company. He and Qiao Yiming were schoolmates.
"Boss Qiao, let's not talk about Qingzhou for now." Lu Xiaozhong leaned close to Qiao Yiming's ear mysteriously, "I have a profitable business that can only make money. Do you want to do it?"
Qiao Yiming looked at him and said curiously.
"Trade? What trade?"
"Let me tell you an insider tip. Our Runlong CNC may be undergoing a merger and reorganization in a few months."
"……Congratulations."
Qiao Yiming said it instinctively at first, then suddenly realized what Lu Xiaozhong meant, and felt a chill down his spine.
"Boss Lu, what do you mean by this?"
"It doesn't mean anything."
Lu Xiaozhong laughed.
"There's no one else here. Mr. Qiao is really interesting. What did you say? Did I say anything to you?"
"Mr. Lu, please don't tell anyone about this kind of thing."
Qiao Yiming understood Lu Xiaozhong's hint very well. During the merger and reorganization stage of a company, stocks are very cheap. Buying stocks at this time and selling them after the merger and reorganization is completed is equivalent to buying at a low price and selling at a high price. It is a sure-win deal.
But there is naturally no such good thing as making money for free in the world. Stock trading is naturally risky. This kind of business that is guaranteed to make money as long as there is a rumor is certainly not legitimate. Once the China Securities Regulatory Commission conducts an investigation, it will be suspected of insider trading and the person will be put in jail.
"I only told you, Qiao Yiming." Lu Xiaozhong smiled. "Mr. Qiao, I have invested a lot in the company, so I naturally hope that you will have the last laugh. But Qingzhou is still very strong recently, and many investors have... quite a few complaints about you."
"Qingzhou is just holding on."
"Being able to hold is a skill. He can hold on for a day, but who can say whether he can hold on for a year or a lifetime?"
Lu Xiaozhong approached, smiled and patted Qiao Yiming on the shoulder, "The situation is changing. Today Qingzhou is holding on, but who knows if Wanshan will have to hold on tomorrow? I have invested a lot in Wanshan, so naturally I want to see you, Qiao Yiming, have the last laugh. Telling you this is also giving you a way out when you have nowhere else to go."
“This is illegal!”
"If you don't tell me and I don't tell you, who will know?"
“No need to say more, Mr. Lu, Qingzhou will collapse soon. I’m a little tired today.”
Qiao Yiming ordered them to leave with a gloomy face.
Lu Xiaozhong didn't say anything more.
He shook his head, sighed "childish", then pushed the door and left the meeting room.
Only Qiao Yiming was left alone, lost in thought...
