The reborn of paranoid boss cannon fodder wife(331-335)

Chapter 331: Good News


"Do you really not like me at all?"


The confession in the alley continued.


The girl pursued persistently, perhaps because her crush had been hidden for too long, she finally waited for the opportunity to open her heart to the one she liked, and once she started, she couldn't stop.


Even after being politely rejected, she didn't want to give up, still wanting to fight for it, wanting a clear and straightforward reason.


"If you won't give me a chance, is it because you already like someone else? Or... do you hate me?"


He finally looked at the girl seriously, but it was just a glance, and his gaze quickly shifted elsewhere.


"There's no liking, so naturally, there's no dislike."


Because there was never any liking, there was no dislike either. Even appearing in his eyes was a luxury.


The girl was heartbroken, her shoulders trembling slightly, and her book fell to the ground.


The wind blew, scattering the pages of her efforts.


He picked them up and returned them all: "A lifetime is long, one learns until old age."


He was indeed a top student, speaking with depth and foresight, even his refusal was polite and measured.


With gratitude mixed with sadness, the girl took back her books, thanking him with restraint, and walked away in a daze.


Bai Lu couldn't help but sigh.


The college entrance examination was over, and it was time to return Lin Jinfan's books.


If she didn't return them soon, they might disappear one day.


Every time she read at home, Xiao Cheng's inadvertent glances seemed to be emitting fire.


Especially when she held up the book, it felt like holding a hot potato over a fire.


She could only read in her room. Fortunately, there were roses outside the window. When she was tired of studying, she could look at the flowers to relax.


When she got too absorbed in her thoughts, she would easily lose track of the road. Bai Lu was caught red-handed as soon as she turned around.


"Cough..." Cough: "Jin Fan Ge, why are you here? I was just passing by, didn't see anything."


This explanation seemed insufficient, she had to emphasize: "I was clearing the land at home, went to the market to buy vegetable seeds, just passed by here when I returned and you came out."


Lin Jinfan believed Bai Lu's words and looked at her empty hands: "Where are your vegetable seeds?"


Bai Lu: "..."


"...Didn't they just in my hands?"


Bai Lu looked down.


There was nothing on the ground.


She extended her hands again and looked around, flipping them over repeatedly, shocked for the first time by her empty hands.


Where are the vegetable seeds!!!


They were just in her hands a moment ago!


How did they suddenly disappear? She spent a penny on them!


"Maybe they fell..." Bai Lu smiled awkwardly. "No, they definitely fell. I don't know where they fell, looked around but couldn't find them, probably picked up by a stray dog and gone forever. I'll go to the market to buy them again."


Lin Jinfan slowly reached out and opened his hand: "Is this your vegetable seed?"


Bai Lu was dumbfounded: "..."


A small funnel made of calendar paper, filled with something like ice cream, quietly lay in his warm palm.


Familiar recipe.


Familiar packaging.


What else could it be if not vegetable seeds?


Definitely not taken by a stray dog.


Bai Lu twitched her mouth, suppressing her awkward smile: "Well... this is indeed the vegetable seed I bought. I didn't expect it to fall so far away, it's really hard to find..."


"Oh right, before the college entrance examination, I borrowed your book. I was about to return it to you. Thank you for your generosity. The book and the papers you provided me with were a great help. I'll treat you to dinner when I have time. I'll go home now and get your book."


Lin Jinfan watched Bai Lu turn around decisively, and glanced at the vegetable seeds that she didn't take from his hand.


Perhaps she forgot.


She'll remember in a moment.


"Ah! I seem to have forgotten something!" Bai Lu took a few big steps out, and returned in a few big steps.


She took the vegetable seeds from Lin Jinfan's hand, quickly and gracefully, with a polite smile.


"Thank you for picking up my vegetable seeds. Don't worry, I'll find the book soon."


"No rush."


Lin Jinfan walked leisurely.


This section of the road was not far from Xiao Cheng's old house. The sun was setting, and there were people coming and going on the street.


If someone asked who had the loudest reputation in this town, it would be Xiao Cheng, Bai Lu, and Lin Jinfan.


A former bully, two national champions. The neighbors would greet them whenever they saw them.


Sometimes, they would even chat for a bit.


Bai Lu was in a hurry, and the neighbors knew she must have urgent matters, so they didn't stop her for a chat.


It was Lin Jinfan who was stopped by various relatives, asking for advice on their children's studies.


Lin Jinfan answered all their questions without reservation, not holding back, and the neighbors were touched by his generosity, praising him endlessly.


It wasn't until they reached Xiao Cheng's old house that they stopped. Each went back home, each teaching their own children the study methods of a top student.


Bai Lu was efficient. Lin Jinfan stopped in front of Xiao Cheng's old house for less than a minute, and the books were already out.


The gentle breeze arrived as well.


Leaves were falling rustlingly.


One fell onto Bai Lu's head. When Lin Jinfan took the books, he casually removed it for her.


Bai Lu was slightly surprised, looked up, and saw another leaf falling from the osmanthus tree in front of the house.


She dodged it, touched her head, straightened her hair, and made sure there were no leaves before retracting her hand.


Her movements were casual yet elegant, and even a bit silly.


If it were before, she wouldn't have dodged, wouldn't have looked up, and would have just stood there letting the leaves cover her.


Lin Jinfan watched her shadow change with the setting sun, his expression still calm as ever.


"I have some good news," he said.


"Is it for me?" Bai Lu was surprised by his gaze of good news: "What good news?"


As expected, Lin Jinfan's tone was as expected, also relieved: "You've been admitted to Guangdong Provincial University."


After a brief moment of surprise, Bai Lu's face returned to its usual light smile. It wasn't unexpected to be admitted with her grades.


What was unexpected was: "The admission notice won't be available for two more days. How did you find out so soon?"


Lin Jinfan explained, "I had something to do a few days ago and went back to school, so I found out early."


Bai Lu suddenly understood. Teachers usually give some privileges to students with good grades.


"It's indeed good news. Now I can prepare early."


Lin Jinfan nodded gently, "I'll come to pick you up on the first day of school and take you to familiarize yourself with the campus. The campus is big, and it's inconvenient for you to carry luggage to the dormitory with your health issues."


Indeed, her health hadn't been good before. Despite being capable, prolonged illness turned into disease...


Not far away, under the tree.


A tall, aloof figure stood motionless, still holding a bag in his hand, as if he had weathered into a statue.


"Brother Cheng..." Li Si opened his mouth but didn't know what to say to comfort him.


"Match made in heaven... excellent in character and learning... childhood sweethearts, both national champions..."


It was the most common praise they heard on their way back.


The least favorite was the random matchmaking.


Before seeing what happened in front of him, Li Si had always firmly believed that Bai Lu must like Xiao Cheng.


But now...


Bai Lu's choice, filling out the application for the same school as Lin Jinfan, meant she would be studying with Lin Jinfan in the future.


Li Si didn't know what that meant, nor did he dare to think about it.


But those who knew, must have already known, because the big shot had been standing here for quite a while.



















Chapter 332: Good Brothers


When Luo Shiliu, Xiao Dazhuang, and Wang Hao were summoned by the big boss to the riverside for a "work discussion," they were utterly shocked, shocked once again, and then shocked even more.


Seeing Xiao Cheng, who had just returned from out of town, clearly with a package in hand and hadn't even entered his own home yet, immediately asking them to drink, besides the long-awaited surprise after a long absence, there was more horror.


Why the horror?


Because ever since Brother Cheng got married, whenever he returned home from anywhere, the first thing he did was to go home and find his wife.


He didn't have time to deal with them, absolutely not!


Moreover, the content of this "work discussion" was even more terrifying than his presence itself, more... ruthless!


"You guys go and do whatever you want."


Was he dissolving the partnership???


The four figures lying on the grass immediately sat up, with three of them scrambling to their feet in an instant. They didn't even have time to pick up the dropped bottles, all crowding around the man who was pretending to sleep.


"Brother Cheng, are you joking?"


Luo Shiliu picked up a bottle and chugged down a large mouthful, trying to sober himself up: "We agreed to talk about work, how can it be over before we even start talking? You must be joking after drinking too much! Are you teasing us?"


Xiao Cheng opened his eyes, his gaze empty and hollow as he stared into the night sky, like a lost eagle without a direction, wandering aimlessly in the dark.


In the boundless darkness, sinking, vanishing, the lonely and desolate breath, the silent shell.


Devoid of vitality.


Wang Hao, whose head was buzzing from the alcohol, reached out and pushed him: "Brother Cheng! Brother Cheng, are you okay?"


"We've been following you and Big Sis-in-law, making good money at home, why do we need to go and do our own things? The thing we most want to do is to follow you and Big Sis-in-law to make money! How can you forget that? Did you drink too much? Are you okay, is there something wrong?"


Xiao Dazhuang also rushed over anxiously.


"We agreed that good brothers make money together and eat together, Brother Cheng, why are you changing your path halfway?"


"Are you going to abandon us?"


"We used to finish our work and come to the riverside to drink and relax, why does it seem more troublesome this time? Did you run into trouble?" Luo Shiliu strongly suspected that Xiao Cheng had encountered a major problem.


Li Si hadn't told them what had happened, he just brought Xiao Cheng over and then went back to the city to handle some business.


Before leaving, he looked worried, taking three steps and looking back twice.


It seemed like he had something to say, but he didn't know how to say it. In the end, he said nothing and just left.


Luo Shiliu decided that the next time they met, he would give Li Si a slap to let him know what's urgent and what's not.


What's the most important thing!


Xiao Cheng remained silent, his deep and solemn figure still standing motionless. His expression remained as calm as ever, not giving them any response, not even a sound.


Only when he heard the word "Big Sis-in-law" did his hollow eyes begin to focus, albeit slowly, but clearly, with a hint of relaxation in his desolate expression.


As clouds of smoke rose, obscuring his features, his expression became blurred, but the sigh was unmistakable.


Luo Shiliu decisively threw a meaningful glance at Xiao Dazhuang.


Xiao Dazhuang immediately understood and turned around to grab the package.


Big Brother must have drunk too much, must be thinking about Bai Lu, and must be starting to get drunk.


They had to send him home immediately!


Luo Shiliu and Wang Hao, one on each side, their intoxicated minds unable to distinguish directions, "supported" Xiao Cheng's arms as they turned around and headed back: "Brother Cheng, it's getting late, the grass seems to be spinning, is this the way home..."


"We've been running this tutoring business for so long, we've saved up some money, enough to build a new house, we'll come with you to see your new house with Big Sis-in-law, and see what kind of scale it is, we'll also work hard to get one..."





























Chapter 333: I'm Not Leaving


*Knock, knock, knock...*


The door opened.


A slender figure of a girl came into focus under the porch light. With a clear and fair face, a slender body, a slightly stunned expression, and soft long hair cascading over her shoulders, she was adorned by the faint silhouette of a tall figure in her clear eyes, becoming clearer and clearer, as if residing within them.


Xiao Cheng embraced her tightly.


Her icy cold body warmed up with his embrace, and his eyes, once hollow and lifeless, now sparkled with light, and his heart began to beat audibly.


Her fragrance filled his nostrils, and he tightened his arms around her, letting the intoxicating sensation numb his brain and drive his limbs.


*Bang!* The door was kicked shut.


Bai Lu was pushed back by the embrace, her feet unable to find their footing, almost slipping. But before she could fall, she was caught in his arms...


Separated by a door.


Luo Shiliu, Xiao Dashuang, and Wang Hao stared at the closed door before them, the wind blowing in sporadic bursts.


"I told you..."


"Hehehehehe... We should've come back earlier. Spent the whole night in the wind, fed mosquitoes all night, drank a bellyful of wine, and in the end..."


"Just a knock on the door and it's all settled!"


"I suspect he's showing off his affection, but there's no evidence. After all, the truth will only be revealed by the person involved~"


"What about the bag?" Xiao Dashuang still held onto Xiao Cheng's belongings, looking helpless and innocent.


Luo Shiliu took the bag and went outside the courtyard wall.


He snapped his fingers and knocked three times on the wall.


"Xiao Wei, my dear~"


"Xiao Wei, come out quickly. Your brother bought you a gift and forgot to bring it. I've thrown it in, catch it~"


"Okay!"


A curve traced across the night sky.


A big gift package fell from the sky.


Only prepared to catch small gifts, Xiao Wei was knocked dizzy when the large package hit him. He stumbled three steps before regaining his balance.


"Brother! Shiliu!"


"No need to thank me, no need to thank me~ Goodnight, Xiao Wei~"


The three figures walked away, their shoulders brushing each other, whistling as they went.


Xiao Wei: "..."


At the table under the moonlight.


The girl was deeply kissed by her boyfriend.


If this was to be their last dinner together, let it be longer, let it be more profound.


Xiao Cheng didn't give Bai Lu a chance to speak, his aggressive kiss dominating her every breath.


The strong smell of alcohol permeated their lips and teeth, flooding the air, sealing every corner, leaving nothing untouched.


A gentle breeze blew.


The wind chimes sounded crisp and melodious.


The roses in the vase bloomed quietly, the breeze carrying a faint floral fragrance, brushing over Bai Lu's breath, lingering on her hand as she wrapped it around Xiao Cheng's neck, and on her tousled hair.


A thousand words were exchanged without a word, endless longing woven into the breaths they exhaled, intertwining with each other.


Xiao Cheng was overjoyed by Bai Lu's response, but suddenly felt a sharp pain in his brain.


His consciousness plunged into darkness in an instant.


Bai Lu was pushed away without warning.


From blurry to clear, she stared blankly at Xiao Cheng's angry face. How could he...


He said to her, "I don't want to see you anymore!"


After saying that, he turned and left.


His tall figure, cold and resolute, didn't look back, his footsteps quickly fading away after the sound of the door closing.


Leaving Bai Lu alone in the wind.


Was he crazy?


One moment, they were passionately kissing, the next, he turned away. Even TV dramas didn't dare to depict such a scene.


As the breeze blew, Bai Lu's last trace of confusion was swept away, and her mind returned to normal operation.


Based on her past experiences, she came to a conclusion: the drunken child had emerged.


As for why the child was suddenly angry, she had no idea.


Bai Lu took the bag back to the closet and hung up the clothes. When she reached the bottom, she paused.


Underneath the clothes were stacks of cash, along with a bank card sandwiched in between.


She recognized the bank card from the last time Xiao Cheng went to sell fir wood in another province. There was over a hundred thousand yuan in it.


The cash in the bag was the revenue from the electronics store during Xiao Cheng's time away in Guangdong Province.


Over a hundred and eighty-six thousand yuan... Plus the money in the bank card, there was over three hundred thousand yuan.


Bai Lu knew that the cash was from the revenue of the store because she was in charge of it. She had sorted out the money and the accounts, all of which were placed in Xiao Cheng's room, waiting for him to come back and check before taking them to the bank.


And now, all of it was put into her bag, presumably as a gift for her to take away tomorrow...


Big idiot!


Bai Lu opened the door and went out, unexpectedly meeting the nervous little guy across the hall, their eyes locking.


"Why haven't you slept yet?"


Xiao Wei dared not say that he had been eavesdropping at the door, listening to his drunken brother drive Bai Lu away, and had purposely come out to keep her... He pointed to the bag on the chair beside him.


"I'm showing the bag to Big Brother."


Such a devoted brother.


Bai Lu knocked on Xiao Cheng's door and softly said to the little guy, "Let's call him out to take it. I also need to talk to him. I don't know if he's asleep yet."


"Knock, knock, knock..." He didn't open the door.


"Knock, knock, knock..." Still no response.


"Knock, knock, knock..."


He opened the door.


As if knowing why she knocked, he took the bag from the chair and went back to his room.


His speed was fast, but before closing the door, Bai Lu grabbed the door frame, her hand blocking it.


"Let's talk." With the little guy present, Bai Lu didn't want to say much, smiling as she suggested.


The child directly refused: "No talking!"


Then he began to pry open her fingers one by one.


Bai Lu smiled and tightened her grip, her eyes speaking: "Try that again, and tomorrow I'll make you eat spicy chicken!"


The child deliberately avoided her gaze, continuing to struggle with her hand, showing a determination not to give up until he pried her fingers apart.
















Chapter 334: Yes


Bai Lu turned her head and smiled at Xiao Wei.


Soft tone: "I need to talk to your brother about something, you go back to sleep, don't worry, I won't leave."


Xiao Wei was a little worried.


But seeing that Xiao Cheng was just pinching Bai Lu's fingers and didn't push her out, and his strength was not as strong as usual, he gradually relaxed and let go of his grip on his clothes corner.


"Then I'll go back to sleep first, call me if Sister-in-law has something."


"Okay, good night."


"Good night, brother and sister-in-law."


With a gentle tug, Bai Lu effortlessly pushed Xiao Cheng into the room and closed the door.


"If you continue to mess around, I will leave now."


Xiao Cheng stopped his attempt to pull her out, released her hand, and glared at her fiercely.


Turning his back: "It's dark now."


Today is still the Ghost Festival in July, with candles on both sides of the streets, and candlelight as far as the eye can see.


At the crossroads, people were burning paper money.


The cold wind blew, enough to make a three-year-old child cry, let alone someone who was afraid of mice.


"Why are you angry?" Bai Lu poked his arm, puzzled.


"Why did you say I'm two-timing?" Xiao Cheng didn't turn his head, moved away, and didn't let her touch his arm, still angry.


"Because you are!" Xiao Cheng was angry.


Bai Lu guessed that his brain might only have two ships left at the moment: "Yes, I'm two-timing."


"You're with a big shot during the day and a kid at night."


The child was shocked: "You're even two-timing with a kid, so you're three-timing!?"


Looking at his shocked pupils, staring straight ahead, as if seeing the sun collide with the moon.


She couldn't help but laugh out loud.


Then she was kicked out.


"You... You leave tomorrow morning! As soon as it's light, leave. I don't want to see you again!"


"Don't knock on the door again!"


"You're not my Lulu. Lulu wouldn't two-time, Lulu wouldn't be so fickle!"


Bai Lu had never seen someone go from joy to sorrow so quickly.


This person is still herself... She was too hasty. She should have locked the door before talking.


Staring at the closed door for three seconds, Bai Lu sighed and turned away.


The next second she appeared outside the window.


"Thud—"


"Thud thud—"


"Thud thud thud—"


In the room, Xiao Cheng covered his ears, pacing back and forth, eyebrows burning with flames, his gaze sweeping fiercely, the fiery waves covering the window, crackling.


"Thud thud thud—"


The dark green window was pushed open with a "creak."


Bai Lu instinctively stepped back, afraid of being hit by the impatient window.


Unexpectedly, although the window was pushed open forcefully, the speed was not fast, slowly opening.


There was no possibility of hitting anyone.


But the handsome face that appeared still looked cold and angry, frowning fiercely at her.


With a pull, he forcefully closed the window...


Bai Lu reached out.


The window stopped abruptly, just one centimeter away from catching her hand, and a trace of tension flashed in the angry eyes.


Then he got even angrier: "Who told you to put your hand there? If it gets stuck... what if the window breaks!"


Bai Lu: "If it breaks, I'll pay for it."


"Oh..." Bai Lu took out a white blanket from the not-so-wide railing.


Surprised and sad: "I didn't intend to leave, nor did I pack my bag... Didn't you pack it?"


The angry child only heard the last sentence, grabbed the blanket: "If you don't pack, you don't pack."


"Why did you hand me the blanket then?"


"It's yours, you didn't pack it."


"Oh..." Bai Lu looked at him with surprise and sadness. "If I catch a cold, what should I do? If you don't give me the blanket, just let me in."


"It's so hot..." He turned his head and stopped.


"Daytime..." and the rest of his words disappeared into the blanket he handed back out.


Under the moonlight, she held the blanket but didn't cover herself, her smile as cool as the night breeze, her eyes slightly narrowed with a bright gaze, staring at him without blinking, with a hint of scrutiny.


As if she were judging a stubborn, unreasonable, disobedient child.


The child clenched his fists, his stubbornness visible in his eyes, unable to suppress the rising sadness, his fists loosening and tightening again.


The stubborn figure was like a lone shadow in the dark night, restless, irritable, the breath of anger and impatience, just escaped but was suppressed again.


"Lulu won't come back in the future..."


Bai Lu had never seen such a proud and domineering child before, nor had she seen this side of him, which lacked confidence.


She knew how capable he was.


The ability to handle things when in a position of leadership, from the very beginning of his existence in the world, far surpasses ordinary people. In the face of situations, he remains calm and rational, unmoved by any external pressure. Everything is under his control.


The achievements of a business emperor can be found in everyday life.


The leader of the crowd, the alpha wolf among the pack, must have the ability to command respect and obedience, courage, and wisdom, all of which he possesses.


The only thing missing is emotions.


Things that have never been encountered before will always stir the heart, arouse curiosity, exploration, liking, and possession.


From the first ignorant encounter to the experience, there is a layer of green in between.


The nervousness and tension of stumbling and stumbling, because of liking, will care, will overthink, and did not know what to do.


Both Bai Lu and Xiao Cheng were in their first romantic relationship, and she didn't understand the profound principles, but she knew that misunderstandings had to be cleared up immediately, or they would turn bad overnight.


"What do you want to know, I'll tell you everything."


Xiao Cheng turned to look at her.


His gray eyes were obscured by a faint mist, his emotions unreadable, but his gaze was steady.


"Hurry up."


Bai Lu pouted like an angry pufferfish, "If you don't open the door, I'll make you eat chili tomorrow."


Xiao Cheng didn't remember what it felt like to eat chili.


But he wanted to hear what the fickle radish had to say.


So he opened the door.

















Chapter 335: Do You Like Me?


Actually, Bai Lu wanted to explain to the big guy.


The intense emotional response of the child clearly stemmed from the deep-seated emotions of Xiao Cheng, which had been accumulating and couldn't be suppressed any longer, thus erupting.


Misunderstandings must have occurred more than once or twice. She didn't know when they started or how they deepened.


The last time she visited her teacher, she did explain, but that was to the drunken child. Xiao Cheng, when sober, probably didn't remember, and likely buried the matter deep in his heart.


Then there were things from even longer ago, things she didn't know and couldn't investigate.


While explaining to the big guy was important, the child couldn't be ignored either; after all, they were both Xiao Cheng.


Moreover, the child's emotional reaction was more intense. If not explained clearly, he probably wouldn't be able to sleep for three days and three nights.


Bai Lu raised her eyes, meeting the gaze of the one staring at her as if she were a "heartless woman," feeling a bit helpless.


It was also funny; she was afraid he would get angry again, so she had to bear with it.


"Do you like me?"


Staring at the Xiao Cheng who viewed her as a "heartless woman," Bai Lu was stunned, a little displeased as she reminded him, "You said you wanted an explanation as soon as we entered."


"Correct."


Bai Lu nodded. "You answer my question first, and once you do, I'll explain."


The child pursed his lips, obviously unwilling to tell the "heartless woman" the answer, but unable to resist the desire to hear her explanation. He turned away and uttered those two words.


"Like."


The wind blew in through the window, stirring his clothes as he stood tall and unmoving.


Sitting at the table, Bai Lu's hair fluttered in the wind, exuding a gentle charm. "What do you like about me?"


The child wouldn't say he liked the heartless woman.


He would only say, "Like Lu Lu."


"Who likes Lu Lu?"


"I do."


"Who are you?"


"Xiao Cheng."


"What kind of Xiao Cheng?"


He still felt angry and didn't want to answer, but he was pulled by the sleeve and turned his head.


Meeting her gentle smile, he unconsciously spoke, "I like Lu Lu."


Bai Lu smiled, taking his hesitant hand. "I like Ah Cheng too."


"Going to study in Guangdong Province is to learn more advanced... that thing..." He didn't understand. "Even if I can't learn it, I still have other businesses to make money for Lu Lu."


Bai Lu was shocked by his grand words, especially the point— "Is this the point?"


"Aren't you concerned about the matter of three-timing?" he reminded her, displeased.


Upon hearing about three-timing again, the child didn't get angry this time but kissed her cheek firmly instead.


"The point is that Lu Lu likes me, and nothing else matters."


Bai Lu: "..."


Who was it that just said she was three-timing, who wanted to kick her out, who said she was a fickle radish, and who let her in to explain?


Was it the devil?


No, it was the drunken child who had already turned off the light, laid her down, and embraced her tightly.


Xiao Cheng's room had few belongings. When she moved out, Bai Lu left behind important items and took unimportant ones to the storage room, leaving the room simple and tidy, but also empty.


Breathing was particularly clear.


Surrounding her ears, settling in her neck, not too light, not too heavy, not too close, not too far.


To avoid future misunderstandings, Bai Lu felt it was necessary to help the child refocus on the main point.


Clarify why she was going to study.


"Our country is already beginning to catch up with the Internet era, and the future will be a brand new era of the Internet. In terms of life, it will be like the shopping programs we see on TV, where you can order things directly over the phone and have them delivered to your home.


"And more advanced Internet technology, computers—software development engineering... can create a more complete shopping system, a more comprehensive shopping platform, and a more convenient shopping experience. People can buy whatever they want directly online, and the network platform has everything.


"You don't need to go out; the goods will be delivered to your home. We are developing the fruit industry in our province and can move in that direction. The fruit-rich province will be our supply base..."


The child had a complete memory and knew Bai Lu came from the future and knew many things.


Listening quietly to her explain a lot, imagining the grand world she described, the era of the Internet.


He had seen computers at the big boss's place; many tasks could be done on computers.


He hadn't used one, so he didn't understand.


After listening to her explanation, he understood that the structural system operated by computers was the Internet.


She said smartphones came later; computer shopping covered the era first, replacing inconvenient shopping trips. You could lie at home and buy things, with delivery to your doorstep.


She said with the changing times, there was no breathing room for anyone. The end of individual businesses meant extinction.


She said we needed to plan early, seize opportunities at the forefront of the era, create our own world before the big e-commerce era arrived.


Only then could we stand firm in the face of economic changes and fear no economic crisis.


She said a lot...


He also learned a lot, many things he hadn't seen before, hadn't heard of, didn't understand.


The only thing he understood clearly was that she was going to study in Guangdong Province to learn more advanced technology.


For the "better future" of "us."


Not for others.


The child's days of restlessness and agitation vanished in an instant.


His heartbeat regained its rhythm and warmth.


"I like Lu Lu."


Bai Lu suddenly hugged tightly, her head resting on his long and sturdy arm, nestling against his broad chest, listening to his lively heartbeat, her lips curling up in a smile.


"Is your liking just giving money?"


"What?" He didn't react.


Bai Lu hit him lightly. "Stuffing money into my bag and driving me away, you sure know how to treat people!"
