rebirth against the times

On the seventh day of the Lunar New Year, No. 1 Huangting was extremely lively. People of all kinds had been busy decorating the villa since early in the morning. Soon, the whole place was filled with the joy of the New Year. This day was the day for the Baishuo brothers.

As usual, it is a day of New Year gatherings. This year, Bai Shuo naturally assumes the responsibility of the main organizer of the party. The specific operations are arranged by Cao An, the organizing committee member. In the past, the gatherings were almost arranged around the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, also to take care of family reunions.

and the need to rework. But this year there is no need for this, because almost all the brothers have their own careers, and no one needs to look at the boss's face anymore and is restricted by the unit's attendance system.

Just after noon, many people came to No. 1 Huangting one after another. This year's party seemed to be particularly crowded. In addition to the brothers who grew up playing together in the past, there were also people from Huaying Group, Shengshi Huazhang, and Blue Ocean.

Capital, Hengan Media, Wujiang Company, Kirin Mobile... core personnel of many companies, and even a few good brothers brought some of their friends and direct relatives to the party. Of course, there was also Robert who came to Shudu for a trip

, Hans and others. And this all stemmed from Bai Shuo's words to Cao An, "make it lively", so Cao An started such a big battle.

In a room in the villa, Bai Shuo was chatting with brothers Zhong Pengcheng, Zhu Zhu, Yao Tao, Wan Bo and other friends about their past friendship. Cao An happily walked into the room with a young man and woman.

"Everyone, look, who's coming."

Following Cao An's voice, I saw a young man about 20 years old with a few bangs walking from behind Cao An in front of everyone.

"Hey, Junxian, I'm willing to come back this year." Wan Bo said first.

Bai Shuo was very happy to see this young man and quickly called him over.

This young man’s name is Song Junxian, and he is also a little brother who has played with Bai Shuo and the others since he was a child. Because Bai Shuo has always taken great care of this little brother, Junxian has also listened to Bai Shuo’s words since he was a child. In Cao An’s words, the two of them

They are as good as brothers. However, after going to college, Junxian did not return to Shudu during the Spring Festival in the past two years, so we have not seen each other for a long time.

Zhong Pengcheng: "What have you been doing these past two years? You didn't go back to Shudu to get together with your brothers during the Chinese New Year."

When Cao An saw Zhong Pengcheng asking, he immediately answered for Junxian: "Junxian had a girlfriend at school the year before last, so naturally he had to secure his girlfriend first..."

Seeing Cao An say this, Song Junxian felt a little embarrassed and said, "That's not true. In fact, I have been back several times in the past two years, but everyone was busy and the time I came back was short, so I didn't say hello specifically."

"So this year we have secured the younger brother and sister. Is the one behind him the younger brother or sister?" Wan Bo suddenly heckled.

At this time, everyone's eyes were focused on the young woman who was still half-covered behind Cao An. Song Junxian immediately pulled the woman over from behind, and the woman smiled sheepishly at everyone as a greeting.

The woman was wearing a thin white down jacket, a beret, and a pair of brown knee-high leather boots. She looked quite delicate.

Cao An: "Don't be shy, brothers and sisters. These are brothers and sisters who have played with Junxian since childhood. Just be casual."

Zhuzhu: "Well, my siblings are pretty good. They are such quiet girls. You, Junxian, can do it. Why don't you introduce me to everyone?"

After being reminded by Zhu Zhu, Junxian reacted and immediately introduced each other to everyone. Through Junxian's introduction, everyone knew that the girl's name was Cui Yuanyuan, from Suzhou, and that she and Song Junxian were students of the same school and class.

"Sure enough, there are beauties from Suzhou and Hangzhou. My younger brother and sister are really beautiful girls."

"You're welcome, Xiao Cui, just treat it like you're back at home."

…

Amidst everyone's compliments and jokes, Bai Shuo's face looked a little unnatural. At this time, he was restraining his emotions and thinking about some issues.

I was so impressed with this Cui Yuanyuan and Bai Shuo. In the memory of the dream, Song Junxian did have such a relationship in college. After graduating from college, Song Junxian took this girl back to the capital of Shu and got married. Bai Shuo

I still remember the wedding scene at that time. It was very grand. Song Junxian’s family spent almost all their savings on the wedding, just to give Cui Yuanyuan a dream wedding. In future life, Cui Yuanyuan was also very materialistic. Not only did she spend every month

She spent all the family's income and forced Junxian to overdraw her credit card to buy clothes and bags for her, and kept complaining that Song Junxian couldn't give her the life she wanted. In the end, she secretly cuckolded Song Junxian.

After finding out, he left Song Junxian and ran away with another man. Song Junxian was deeply hit, and he was burdened with a very heavy debt, and he never recovered...

Bai Shuo sighed secretly and asked: "Junxian, if I remember correctly, you should graduate from college this year, right?"

Song Junxian: "Yes, brother Chang Geng, I will go back to school after the Spring Festival, and then I will mainly do internships, and then I will graduate."

Bai Shuo: "What are your plans after graduation?"

Song Junxian scratched his head and said with a smile: "I haven't thought about it yet. Maybe I will return to the capital of Shu, or maybe I will stay in Gusu to find a job."

Bai Shuo: "You majored in communications and information engineering, right? Why don't you go and help our newly established Kirin Mobile Phone? It's much better than going around sending out resumes to apply for jobs."

Song Junxian immediately became happy when he heard this: "Okay, I will listen to you, Brother Chang Geng."

Cao An: "Yes, you have listened to Brother Shuo the most since you were a child. How often have you suffered a loss? After two years, you have work experience and laid a foundation. Then our brothers will lead you to start your own business and take care of it.

You make a fortune...haha."

At this time, Zhao Yong walked into the room and told Bai Shuo that many guests had come outside. Several core personnel from Huaying Group, Hengan Media, and Kirin Mobile had arrived. So Bai Shuo got up and prepared to go to receive them, and naturally Zhu Zi and Cao An also came

Go together.

Before leaving the house, Bai Shuo suddenly looked back at Song Junxian and said, "Junxian, why don't you come with me to some of the bosses of Qilin Mobile to build a good relationship for you in the future."

Song Junxian and Cui Yuanyuan were about to leave, but Bai Shuo said: "Brothers and sisters, please wait here for Junxian for a while. Yao Tao, Wanbo, you guys, take good care of my brothers and sisters, don't neglect them."

Hearing what Bai Shuo said, Cui Yuanyuan naturally separated from Song Junxian and stayed in the room. Song Junxian didn't think much and happily followed Bai Shuo out of the room.

After leaving the room and walking to the corner of the stairs, Bai Shuo suddenly stopped, turned around and stared at Song Junxian behind him. Everyone was very strange by Bai Shuo's behavior, and looked at Bai Shuo in surprise.

melt.

"Brother Chang Geng, what are you doing..." Song Junxian said at a loss.

Bai Shuo: "Junxian, how much do you know about Cui Yuanyuan?"

Song Junxian didn't expect that Bai Shuo would suddenly ask about this matter. He paused for a while and said, "I have been with her for two years, so I think we know her fairly well."

Bai Shuo: "How deeply do you like her?"

Song Junxian was a little embarrassed when asked, and said with a slight blush: "Well...it's okay, I think we have a relatively tacit understanding."

Zhuzi smiled and said softly to Cao An: "What is Gengzi singing?"

Cao An: "Who knows why you are so crazy? There are still a bunch of guests waiting below."

…

Bai Shuo ignored the whispers of Zhu Zhu and Cao An, and continued to ask Song Junxian: "Junxian, do you believe what I say?"

Song Junxian: "Well... of course, I will listen to whatever Brother Chang Geng says."

Bai Shuo: "If I asked you to do something that seems unreasonable without any reason, would you do it?"

Song Junxian: "Well..., I believe in Brother Geng. I will do whatever Brother Chang Geng asks me to do."

Bai Shuo: "Are you sure?!"

Song Junxian: "Well... yes."

At this time, Cao An was unhappy: "What are you doing? If you have any issues between brothers, just tell them directly. Why are you so ink?"

After a long time, Bai Shuo said: "Okay, Junxian, don't ask me why for what I want you to do next, but it's all for your own good. If you really believe me, just do as I say.

If you don’t believe it, I won’t stop you from making your choice.”

Suddenly the atmosphere at the corner of the corridor became very strange. Everyone felt a little confused. Zhu Zhu and Cao An also felt that the matter was not simple and did not say anything further.

"Brother Geng, tell me, I will definitely listen to you." Song Junxian thought for a moment and said.

Bai Shuo then said to Song Junxian word for word: "I hope you and Cui Yuanyuan break up."

Song Junxian was stunned, but it was Cao An who shouted first: "What, Brother Shuo, are you trying to beat the mandarin duck?"

Zhu Zhu: "Genghzi, do you have any reason for saying that?"

Bai Shuo glanced at Zhu Zhu and said, "Junxian, that girl is not suitable for you. Being with her will harm you for the rest of your life. I have no more explanation. You should think about it yourself."

Song Junxian still stayed there. After Bai Shuo finished speaking, he turned around and continued walking downstairs. Zhu Zhu and Cao An looked at Song Junxian and quickly followed Bai Shuo.

Arriving at the lobby of the villa, it was already full of guests and friends. Bai Shuo, Cao An, and Zhu Zhu came forward to greet the guests respectively, and gradually blended in with everyone. Of course, his appearance became the focus of everyone, and everyone looked for opportunities to come forward and chat with them.

He exchanged a few words, including many new friends that Bai Shuo didn't know. Bai Shuo knew that the people who could be present today were more or less the backbone of each line. These people were the ones he would need to rely on in the future.

He had the power to get to know and communicate with many new friends very politely. However, Bai Shuo really didn't like such an occasion, so he found an opportunity and came to Nangong Ming, Robert, Hans, and Mark. Everyone saw

When Bai Shuo was with a few unfamiliar foreigners, it was inconvenient to disturb him, so this corner became like an idyllic place in the entire hall of the villa.

Nangong Ming also brought good news to Bai Shuo. Nortel Network, which Bai Shuo has been paying attention to, has fallen below 1 yuan. The Canadian side has given it an ultimatum. If it cannot be completed within a month,

Reorganization, then what awaits it will be bankruptcy. And Nangong Ming has just successfully recruited Robert to become the person in charge of the Nortel Networks acquisition project. Robert will rush to Canada in two days.

The biggest worry for Bai Shuo at present is that he can't find a suitable candidate to take charge of Nortel Networks. If Robert is willing, this is of course an excellent candidate. But after hearing this, Bai Shuo showed an intriguing look.

, and immediately said a little depressed: "This is really not good news."

Everyone was slightly stunned. Could it be that Bai Shuo was not satisfied with this arrangement?

Bai Shuo glanced at Robert and then at Mrs. Robert. He turned back to Robert and said, "Robert, I'm very sorry... I'm afraid you and your wife will have to make up for your trip around the world later."

Everyone understood and laughed.

Everyone discussed the details of the acquisition of Nortel for a while, and the whole plan gradually became mature. At this time, Bai Shuo suddenly saw through the window a young woman on a platform outside the villa, who seemed to be venting her anger on a man.

He was emotional, but the man rarely spoke and just allowed the woman to beat and scold him. Who could this couple be if they weren't Song Junxian and Cui Yuanyuan?

Bai Shuo asked everyone to continue discussing some uncertain factors, but he temporarily said goodbye to Robert and others, came to a place where Song Junxian and Cui Yuanyuan could be clearly seen, and looked at the two people silently. For this brother, Bai Shuo

I still care about him very much. Song Junxian has been very close to Bai Shuo since he was a child. In Cao An's words, the two of them used to be like brothers. Therefore, Bai Shuo showed special concern for Junxiancai, and in his memory, he had a deep affection for Junxiancai.

He has experienced the hardship and pain of life, and has also witnessed the blow Junxian suffered, so Bai Shuo does not want Junxian to embark on that old path again.

The two people on the platform were getting more and more excited, and Song Junxian was no longer as silent as before, and began to express his opinions firmly. Finally, after Song Junxian's speech, Cui Yuanyuan slapped Song Junxian hard in the face, and then left angrily.

, until he disappeared outside the villa.

Seeing this, Bai Shuo had already estimated what had happened, and the outcome of the matter was just as he wanted. Although he felt that his approach was a bit arbitrary and unhuman, the short-term pain was better than the long-term pain. For the sake of brother Junxian,

For lifelong happiness, he had to do this.

Song Junxian looked at the place where Cui Yuanyuan disappeared. He was stunned for a while, then slowly turned around and prepared to return to the villa. At this time, he also saw Bai Shuo watching him from behind.

After some hesitation, Song Junxian slowly came to Bai Shuo with some disappointment.

After a long time, he said with some choking: "Brother Chang Geng, Yuanyuan...she's gone."

Seeing Junxian's appearance, Bai Shuo suddenly felt sad. He patted Junxian on the back and said comfortingly: "It's okay, Junxian. From today on, everything will get better and better."
