Ten Years Against the Current of Rebirth

At eight o'clock in the morning, Xu Niannian got up on time and selected the clothes to wear today in front of the floor-length mirror in the bedroom.

Now that January has entered, the weather is getting colder and colder. Xu Niannian wears a pair of warm stockings and a pair of light blue jeans that have been washed until they turn white.

Put a dress on the upper body with the skirt reaching to the middle of the thigh, then put on a warm sweater to cover the upper body of the dress, leaving only the white skirt.

Finally, grab a down jacket and your simple outfit is complete.

After walking out of the bedroom, Xu Niannian knocked on Yan Chijuan's bedroom door and pushed the door open while saying, "Jianchiju, I'm going shopping, do you want... um?"

Originally, Xu Niannian wanted to ask Yan Chijuan if he wanted to go out to play together, but when he opened the door, he discovered that Yan Chijuan was not in the room.

"You got up so early?" Xu Niannian muttered, "You're not going to the company to work overtime early in the morning, are you?"

With this in mind, Xu Niannian closed the door of Yan Chijuan's bedroom, walked to the living room, came to the door of Xu Xing's bedroom, knocked on the door and held the door handle, but it didn't open.

The door is locked.

"Xu Xing! Why do you, a grown man, lock the door?"

Xu Niannian complained at the bedroom door.

In the bedroom, the two people who were sleeping soundly were suddenly awakened by Xu Niannian's voice.

Yan Chijuan, who was nestled in Xu Xing's arms, looked panicked. He quickly sat up on the bed and looked left and right, wondering whether he should hide in the closet immediately.

However, Xu Xing still remembered that the door was locked. He hugged Yan Chijuan and lay back on the bed. While holding his girlfriend's soft body, he said to Xu Niannian at the door: "Is something wrong? Don't bother me to sleep in, okay?"

"I'm going out. I'm going shopping with Jiajia today. I want to tell you."

"I know, I know, be careful on the road and have fun."

"Hey, there is no sincerity at all." Xu Niannian curled his lips and patted the door unwillingly, "Then why don't you open the door? Didn't you say you are going to discuss business today? It's time to get up, let's have breakfast together?

"

"My sister, I turned on the air conditioner on time, and it's freezing in the bedroom now. Can you please stop torturing me?" Xu Xing complained, but in fact he was talking to the jealousy in his arms, "That's the same as talking about business.

As for lunch, you can go play first."

"That's okay." Xu Niannian reluctantly agreed, "Then I'll go."

"Bye-Bye."

In the bedroom, they heard the footsteps of Xu Niannian leaving and the sound of opening and closing the door at the entrance to the living room. The two people on the bed finally breathed a sigh of relief and confirmed that Xu Niannian had left.

"I was scared to death..." Yan Chijuan came back to his senses at this moment and breathed a sigh of relief in Xu Xing's arms. His tense body also relaxed, "Fortunately, I locked the door yesterday."

Xu Xing pinched her little nose and smiled: "You are becoming more and more skilled in underground guerrilla warfare."

"Hehe." Yan Chiju giggled in his arms, rubbed his head against his chest, and then asked, "Then shall we get up?"

"If you sleep a little longer, you won't get enough sleep." Xu Xing's head shrank down and buried in Yan Chijuan's arms. He took a deep breath and said comfortably, "It's still early, don't be in a hurry.

."

Yan Chijuan felt the heat in her chest, and her cheeks turned slightly red, but she did not push Xu Xing's head away. Instead, she stretched out her arms to hug him, and just said, "It's not because of you touching around at night that I fell asleep so late."

"I told you that your hands don't obey your orders. You can't blame me."

"Then...what now?"

"He doesn't listen to his orders."

"...Mr. Xu, you are so bad."

…

It wasn't until nine o'clock in the morning that the two of them got up from bed.

Yan Chijuan trotted back to the bedroom to change clothes. Xu Xing also got dressed and came out of the bedroom. He walked to the kitchen and looked in the refrigerator. He took out eggs and bread, planning to make a simple breakfast.

When he had fried the eggs, heated the bread, and prepared the milk, Yan Chijuan had already dressed and came out of the bedroom.

Because Xu Xing didn't buy her new clothes before, Yan Chijuan was still wearing the down jacket from high school. The pure white color looked very old.

He wore a pair of long johns underneath and a pair of black cotton trousers on the lower body.

This kind of matching is in sharp contrast with Xu Niannian's casual and fashionable outfits.

"Let's buy you some clothes today." Xu Xing looked at her clothes, touched his chin and thought, "Maybe I can find some time to ask my mother to give me a few sets. She should have a lot of winter clothes recently."

Yan Chijuan obediently sat down at the dining table and whispered while eating breakfast: "I can buy it myself."

"How many times have you said this?" Xu Xing looked at her sideways, "I said before that I would buy you clothes, and you just said that, but it's already been January and I haven't seen you buy them."

"Well..." Yan Chijiu was speechless by what he said, and lowered his head in embarrassment, "Then I want to save more money."

"Silly." Xu Xing couldn't help but reach out and pinch her cheek, "The clothes in your closet probably don't even have half of the clothes in Xu Niannian's closet. She still has a lot of them at home."

"But it's a lot." Yan Chijie didn't have such a strong desire to compare. He even raised his face to let Xu Xing squeeze it more comfortably, and just said, "It's just that I wore summer and autumn clothes before, but I can't wear them now."

"So I have to buy you something to wear." Xu Xing said this, then thought of something, and then added, "Buy two more sets of pajamas."

"Ah?" Yan Chijue was a little confused, "The pajamas are enough."

"It's too thick." Xu Xing said seriously, "If the pajamas are too thick, it will be uncomfortable when sleeping. Anyway, when the air conditioner is turned on at night, it is better to wear something lighter, which is good for the body."

Hearing what Xu Xing said, Yan Chijuan wasn't really a fool. She didn't know what he was planning, but he still blushed and whispered, "It can't be too thin..."

…

The two of them finished breakfast and set off at around 9:30.

The two of them had taken the time to learn how to get a driver's license before, and it was easier to get a driver's license these days. Xu Xing spent money to find a coach to teach him, and basically took some time every day for half a month to get it done.

Yan Chijue also fell in love with her boyfriend, but if they were not traveling far away, the two of them still preferred riding electric bikes and enjoying the pleasure of being close to each other.

But today, in order to avoid Xu Niannian and Yu Youjia, they planned to find a shopping street farther away, so they took out a car that they rarely drove.

"Here." Xu Xing threw the car keys in his hand to Yan Chijuan, then walked to the passenger seat, opened the car door and smiled at her, "Let's see if there's anyone around recently."

"Well..." Yan Chijue looked embarrassed and aggrieved. After catching the car key thrown by Xu Xing, he whispered, "Why don't you drive it?"

"Your dear Mr. Xu is in the car and wants to check on things in the company." Xu Xing had already got into the passenger seat and smiled at her and said, "You have to help me share some of the burden, right? Driving is so fun."

Yan Chijuan doesn't dislike driving, but he doesn't drive much. Although he has a driver's license and has driven a few times before, he is still a little worried about his skills.

But since Xu Xing said so, she couldn't refuse, so she obediently sat in the driver's seat, fastened her seat belt, and adjusted the chair slightly.

After all, Xu Xing is tall and has long legs, which suits his seat. Yan Chijuan must adjust it, otherwise it will be difficult to press the accelerator.

"Then let's set off?" Yan Chijuan inserted the car key and started the car. He turned to look at Xu Xing next to him. Instead of leaving in a hurry, he loosened his seat belt and climbed onto Xu Xing's passenger seat with his upper body.

Reach out to help him fasten his seat belt.

"Just say no." Seeing her action, Xu Xing couldn't help laughing, "I'm not incompetent."

"Mr. Xu is busy dealing with the company's affairs. Leave this little matter to me." Yan Chijiu put on his seat belt again and said obediently.

Xu Xing smiled and shook his head, without saying anything more, he just said: "Let's go then. I remember there is a commercial street further north. We can go there and have a look."

"Okay~"

…

——————————

Sino-Ocean International Building, interior of Qunxing Company.

Although there is a holiday on New Year's Day, many people in the company still choose to stay and work overtime, and the triple subsidy during the holidays is still very nice.

Zhang Nong didn't take a day off today. Instead, on Xu Xing's recommendation, he came to the office of Tianxuan Information Service Company and met Dai Zhuoshan himself, who provided them with takeout platform services, for the first time.

However, Zhang Nong only knew that the Tianxuan Company was run by Xu Xing, but he did not know which company was behind Tianxuan Company.

"This is the various data of the takeaway in recent months, and then we will slowly introduce the specific operational logic and other related things." Dai Zhuoshan knew that this was Mr. Xu's roommate, so he did not neglect it and was very polite.

Invite him to come in and explain some key points.

Zhang Nong originally wanted to take a little rest today. After all, it is rare to have a holiday. He is usually very busy, so at least he can take some time to rest.

But a few days ago, Xu Xing informed him that he was going to take him to meet an investor, saying that there was a chance for him to get follow-up financing, and asked him to go to Tianxuan Company first to have a deeper understanding of the operating mechanism of the platform and the logic behind it.

.

In particular, Zhang Nong himself is also a computer student. In addition, he has been deeply involved in the front line of the food delivery industry in the past few months. Dai Zhuoshan just mentioned a lot of things, and Zhang Nong quickly captured the key points and was able to draw inferences from one example.

This is the power of practice.

When Xu Xing communicated with Pei Qinglan, he was certainly able to take a high-level view and gain insight into the overall situation from a general perspective, but in terms of details, he was definitely not as understanding as Zhang Nong, a person who was on the front line and was doing it himself.

[Dai Zhuoshan]: Mr. Xu, Zhang Nong is here. I will take him to learn more about the platform. Do you have anything else to give?

After receiving Zhang Nong, Dai Zhuoshan took the time to send Xu Xing a message on WeChat.

[Xu Xing]: This is also an opportunity for you to get in touch. Not only do you introduce him, but you also want to hear his views on the food delivery platform and actually communicate face to face.

[Xu Xing]: For example, the mechanism on the platform, what room for improvement is there, the page browsing, the links clicked, including food pictures, shopping menus, price tags, preferential activities and other details, you can do some sharing and follow-up.

comminicate.

[Xu Xing]: For this kind of thing, face-to-face communication is definitely the most efficient. You should also listen to the opinions of front-line members and then consider and optimize it.

[Dai Zhuoshan]: Okay, Mr. Xu, I understand.

…

In the car, Xu Xing briefly handled some matters that needed his attention and did not chat with Yan Chiju.

It wasn't that he didn't want to talk, but Yan Chijuan was driving seriously and seriously, specifically asking him not to distract her by talking casually.

And just when Yan Chijuan drove on the highway and headed towards the commercial street to the north, Xu Niannian had already driven Yu Youjia all the way to the parking lot of the Bai Rong World Trade Center.

"What should we do first in the morning?" Yu Youjia asked after getting off the car.

"Let's go to the movies first." Xu Niannian shook his phone and said with a proud smile, "I already booked the movie tickets yesterday. Let's buy some milk tea first and we can go directly there later."

"What time is it?"

"From 10:30 to 12 o'clock, after watching the movie, we will go have lunch." Xu Niannian has already planned, "Then in the afternoon we will go shopping in the Western Plaza next door. I want to buy some clothes for Xu Xing."

"Don't you forget your good brother when you go shopping?" Yu Youjia was speechless, "I feel like I'm superfluous."

"No way~" Xu Niannian hugged her quickly and said coquettishly, "Jiajia is the best, and you can also buy some clothes for Zhou Jing."

"If I want to buy him clothes, I must buy them specifically for him when we go out on a date." Yu Youjia complained, "How could he be like you?"

"It hurts my heart..."

…

"What should we do first?"

After rushing to the parking lot of the Bai Rong World Trade Center, Xu Xing sat in the passenger seat. While unbuckling his seat belt, he asked Yan Chijuan, "Do you want to buy clothes first?"

"There's no rush." ​​Yan Chijue shook his head, "If we buy clothes first, we'll have to carry bags all day long. We can go to the movies first."

"That's okay." Xu Xing looked at the time and saw that it was already 10:20. He turned on his phone and checked the information about the cinema here and found the movie closest to the current time. "There is a movie that is still 10 minutes away."

It will be released in a few minutes, there are still some Couples left, do you want to watch it?"

"Okay." Yan Chijiu nodded in agreement, quickly turned off the engine and got out of the car, and said to Xu Xing, "Then let's hurry up and don't be late."

"Are the doors locked?"

"Locked~"

Yan Chiju hugged Xu Xing's arm. At this time, the Bairong World Trade Center was more than ten kilometers away. She finally didn't have to hide it deliberately. She could hug Xu Xing's arm openly and walk on the street to enjoy it.

Passers-by looked at me with envy.

"The cinema is on the sixth floor." Xu Xing took her into the Bai Rong World Trade Center. After looking at the street signs, he said, "Let's go up one level at a time and take a look at what we're going to have for lunch later."

"I want to eat steak!" Yan Chiju blurted out without even thinking.

"Why do you think of eating this?"

"I, I also want to cut the steak into small pieces for you and watch you eat it."

"……good."
