Chapter Five, the long meditation in the depths of the heart.
The avatar of an old acquaintance lit up, and Liu Dazhuang was initially so nervous that he could hardly breathe. He quickly realized that this was a scam tactic and was ready to fire back at the fraudster with all his might. However, every hurtful word he typed was halted as soon as he saw that the avatar belonged to her. In the end, he deleted each one, slowly typing out different words instead.
In general, during such large-scale events, there are always students who try to bring in various goods from outside to sell at school. Sheng Shan was so busy that he forgot to give me money. I had very little cash on me and after wandering around for quite a while, I finally found a relatively inexpensive place, but it was still a bit lacking.
After Wei Yan's death, the Wei family was essentially under the control of Qi Yueying
The man removed his outer coat, revealing a pristine white shirt and black trousers, with his sleeves rolled up. The light from the streetlamp splashed across his fair profile and handsome features. Due to the special occasion, the basketball court was empty, with only him dribbling the ball, as if he were casually playing with glass marbles in his childhood, effortlessly executing each complex move.
The scrutinizing gaze was too blatant; Wei Guangyin finally turned his head. Upon seeing me, he was not surprised, maintaining his shooting posture, and calmly said: "Come in"
One says, look how foolish you were back then. The other says, look how cowardly you are now
Indeed, a casual wave of the hand and a faintly understanding smile were received
Not knowing what to feel, he suddenly picked up the basketball and casually threw it at me, "A game?"
At this moment, two years ago, I personally rejected it. Now it has returned with a vengeance, and I think, time, the one who should say sorry is actually me
In critical moments, people indeed have a reflexive response. Just a second before the embarrassing situation unfolded, I originally had the opportunity to stabilize my balance, but I expended all my remaining strength to hold onto the water bottle, hoping that its lid would not pop off and scald that person with skin as dark as jade.
The young man's gaze lingered on the girl for an additional two seconds, which He Bo keenly noticed. He bent down to make a final probe, saying, "If the photo is sent out, it will undoubtedly put Miss Cheng in the spotlight as well"
The lid of the kettle was finally under my control, but just as the boiling water was freshly poured, a splash leapt from the spout and splattered onto the slightly clenched back of the hand opposite.
Seeing that he had no intention of responding, I thought I had guessed correctly and disdainfully remarked, "Tsk tsk, truly despicable. Unable to seize the Wei family's business, you simply resort to stealing the woman of their young master. What a lowly senior brother."
Indeed, he spoke up, "How long are you all planning to distribute this? If a leader comes in midway, it could easily be overlooked." Therefore, it was suggested that Sheng Shan gather the lapel flowers into a cluster and label them for self-service upon entry.
Suddenly, the cloud moved, drifting towards me without a moment's hesitation, using its own power to intercept me, its eyes dark and murky
The boss should be a junior or senior student. I haggled for quite a while, yet he remained stubbornly defiant, which made me so angry that I turned to leave. To my surprise, as I turned, I caught sight of my rival, Ye Shenxun.
On this day, it seemed that someone's mood was particularly good, generously bestowing blessings.
As I recovered from the discomfort in my body, the boy, resembling a clear breeze and bright moon, had drawn very close, carefully observing my expression. Then, as if God were fulfilling my long-held obsession, the first puff of smoke burst forth in the sky at that moment
After He Bo received the order and withdrew, the room returned to tranquility. As his fingers brushed against a cool metallic object in his coat, the young man reached in to take it out, raising his eyes to examine it under the dim light of the wall lamp; it was an ordinary ring, so unremarkable that it could easily be overlooked.
After the fact, I deeply regret why I was daydreaming at that moment
The precious tea at the scene that day was of fine, slender green leaves, its name unknown, sourced from a private tea estate by West Lake. Its annual production is minimal, yet on this day, it was entirely offered to those present. Sheng Shan asked me to assist in distributing the new tea cups and to brew another round.
Compared to before, this old friend has changed a lot, yet fundamentally, not much has altered. In her childhood, she was timid and introverted, often the target of her classmates' bullying. Later, the Cheng family adopted the optimistic and cheerful Cheng Gaigai, and through this influence, she gradually transformed into a sunflower. Now, however, she has reverted to her original self, speaking softly, sweetly, and with a hint of caution
and watch the fireworks with you
Startled, Ye Shenxun tilted his body slightly and looked at me with disdain
I have a strong sense of pride, mistaking the upward curve of his eyes for mockery. My desire to win surged unexpectedly, momentarily causing me to forget my physical limitations entirely. I immediately exerted all my strength and, through a borderline play, managed to cheat my way into scoring a three-pointer, thus avoiding a devastating loss
Bin City is a first-tier city, with numerous flights coming and going, and the KFC is bustling with crowds. Fortunately, he is tall and, after just a glance, spotted that slender figure.
Is it the discount frenzy at the supermarket where there is a 10% discount on Mondays, 20% on Tuesdays, 30% on Wednesdays, and 40% on Thursdays
The outstanding abilities of one's own son are evident to all, yet he lacks practical experience in business. Whether he can stand out amidst deception and intrigue after being thrust into the fray remains to be seen. Therefore, he has not eliminated any potential threats. A threat signifies capability, such as Qi Yueying. If Wei Guangyin is utilized well, he could become a stepping stone; if not, those with ability will rise above, which is the art of the throne
For example
His words truly left me stunned for a few seconds. Upon closer inspection, the gaze of the person opposite was anything but calm; it was clearly mocking, as if to say, "So you finally decided to look over?"
He stood with his hands in his pockets, not responding. I glanced around and my eyes landed on the girl next to him. She looked somewhat familiar, but she was not Jie Ran. After a while, I finally remembered that she was the one who appeared alongside Wei Guangyin in the newspaper, whose identity and background remain a mystery to this day
The good lady covered her mouth with both hands, gazing at me with starry eyes in admiration, as if to say, "Oh my, Cheng Cheng, I can't believe I can become your friend..." But that is not important. What matters is that this plan actually came from Wei Guangyin, which instantly made me want to cover my mouth with both hands, gazing at him with starry eyes in admiration, and exclaim, "Oh my, I can't believe I can become your high school classmate..."
After a year and more of leave from school, Sheng Shan has returned to the campus. Looking at the youthful and vibrant faces around him, he feels a deep sense of sorrow, "In the past, with beautiful people like flowers and time flowing like water, such precious moments have been wasted in this way"
Since the death of his mother, Wei Yan had never mentioned this person again, but that night he handed over their engagement rings, stating that they were not valuable items, yet he had never parted with them. They were purchased before the Wei family had taken shape. At that time, when the contract was finalized, there was also extra money to buy a decent diamond ring, but Wei's mother insisted that this one was beautiful. It resembled life, simple and unadorned. A cup of tea and a meal, a courtyard and a person. Originally, when the contract was finalized, there was also extra money to buy a decent diamond ring, but Wei's mother insisted that this one was beautiful. It resembled life, simple and unadorned. A cup of tea and a meal, a courtyard and a person.
Her voice seems to carry an enchanting fragrance
Upon seeing me mention Wei Guangyin with a lovesick expression, Ye Shenxun's face turned pale, and he couldn't even be bothered to pursue the matter of me using him. He simply took long strides and left. I asked Zhou Yin, who was behind me, "He seems to be in a bad mood, doesn't he?" The man smirked slightly and replied, "Perhaps he's worried about having to eat in the cafeteria for dinner."
I randomly wiped my face to control my infatuated expression, cradling my muddled head, and just walked in like that
I felt a throbbing near my temples, unsure of how to react at that moment. However, recalling what Mr. He said that night, the reaction that should not have arisen was forcibly suppressed.
Under the night sky, Wei Guangyin appeared even cleaner in his white attire, resembling stars, lacquer, or clouds. Yet I, in contrast, am the most ordinary mud. Clouds and mud are destined to be different
He was waiting outside the venue, sitting in the first row at an angle. On his left was Qi Yueying, and on his right was indeed his rumored girlfriend. Being in such an occasion, it is probably inappropriate to label her as a rumor; she should be referred to as the legitimate partner.
Wei Yan likely has two main purposes for doing this. First, it is to prevent Qi Yueying from harboring ulterior motives. This woman has been following him for many years, providing strategies for the group and participating in various projects, both large and small, which makes it easy for her to overshadow her superior. If she were to gain too much real power, it is possible that one day the Wei family would no longer bear the surname Wei.
On the other hand, Wei Yan also restricted Wei Guangyin
The chat record shows the first message, Cheng Suiwan's QQ avatar says, "Are you there? My phone card has been deactivated, and I need to pay the activation fee. I chose online payment, but I can't receive the SMS verification code, so I can only rely on the airport Wi-Fi to go online. Can you click the link to help me pay? I will pay you back when we meet."
I suddenly recalled a summer many years ago when a basketball game was held in Binzhong. I complained to Liu Dazhuang, "Why didn't you recruit Wei Guangyin into the team? It was such a good opportunity to see him shirtless, and we missed it just like that"
The good lady said, "I cannot understand. After all, anyone would rush to buy a product at a 90% discount on the last day. There are many people, but the boss wouldn't go bankrupt, would he?"
However, I quite like this girl, the good lady. Although she does not possess the ethereal beauty of Cheng Suiwan, she is genuine at heart. I couldn't help but defend her a bit, saying, "I heard she is doing quite well over there and probably won't come back. The good lady is not bad either; she knows you like someone else yet convinces herself to turn a blind eye. What kind of fortune is that?"
As soon as the storm calms down, I had just left when I heard that person eagerly asking Ye Shenxun about our relationship. The self-proclaimed master of schemes, Young Master Ye, finally realized that he had been outsmarted.
He Bo was also present, positioned neither too far nor too close, and he nodded slightly at me. Thus, I also stood up, intending to greet him. However, just as I took a couple of steps, a sudden loud and crisp sound came from behind me
The person's position was right next to Ye Shenxun, and there was no more tea at Young Master Ye's place, having been replaced by other varieties. Ye Xingjia caught a glimpse and noticed something amiss, just as he was about to seize the opportunity to strike, I slightly bent down to add water, and then, taking advantage of his unpreparedness, I threw out a small piece of paper and personally stuffed it into his palm
Upon arriving at the scene, there were indeed not enough people, and even Liu Wei was called in to assist. When Liu Dazhuang saw Ye Shenxun and me appearing together, he trembled and said, "Could it be that General Manager Ye is also here to help us distribute flowers..."
I rarely experience a sense of superiority. The prices are indeed cheaper on the last day, but can you really get what you want on that day? Just look at this scene; it surpasses the frenzy of queuing all night for the latest iPhone. Therefore, the public, having learned from experience, will start to purchase the items they need at the beginning of the discount period. What difference does that make compared to the usual 10% or 20% discounts in regular stores? Moreover, once such a surprising sales strategy is revealed, don't you think it even saves on public relations expenses? That little gesture, just like someone standing at the top of the food chain.
The initial eye-catching effect of the shopping mall and the sales figures met expectations, but consumers are not foolish. To encourage them to continue making purchases, a chain of stimulation is necessary. His goal is not for short-term profit, but to embed the brand deeply in people's minds. Therefore, the true 'go' project is a cycle of one, two, three, and four, yet Shen Zhou seems to have already taken precautions.
The teased Young Master Ye, with a glimmer of fire in his eyes, quietly called out to me, "Cheng, change, change." Unexpectedly, I deliberately turned my head aside, smiled at him, and then proceeded to speak softly in the direction of the second-in-command.
Subsequently, my gaze became even more intricate.
Turning back, it turned out that the balloon had burst, and the air that was expelled swept across the battlefield. The red lapel flowers that had just scattered on the ground instantly transformed into flying petals, fluttering in the air like a wedding scene. Ye Shenxun, dressed in a perfectly tailored suit, stood up from the swirling flowers, his handsome demeanor leaving the surrounding female students mesmerized.
During the grand anniversary celebration, many distinguished alumni were invited. According to Sheng Shan, Zhou Yin and Ye Shenxun were also among them
Liu Dazhuang hesitated slightly and said, "I have made it clear to her that I do not have those intentions towards her"
Wei Guangyin fell into deep thought, gently stroking the faint circle, listening to the rain outside the window as it pattered softly, tapping on the windowpane, resonating within the heart. Beyond the tall buildings, there were others in silent contemplation, gazing at the myriad of lights in the homes, blurred in the misty drizzle.
That person intermittently said, "I am not your elder, Liu Wei."
However, I am quite clumsy with my hands; most things that come into my possession end up in a state of disarray, let alone floral arrangements
If I hadn't been daydreaming, I could have promptly informed Liu Dazhuang that I could also transform into Sui Wan to chat with you! I could even offer a discount! One hundred yuan per minute! Such an easy way to earn a fortune, yet I ended up missing it completely.
I apologize, some of the tea leaves that were previously delivered have been damp and need to be replaced. For the time being, we can only substitute with Longjing tea
I said that fireworks are not particularly interesting, and I am more interested in rocket launches. She nodded and said, "Indeed, it's not very meaningful for an old person to watch alone." After saying this, disregarding my fiery gaze, she turned her waist and swayed her hips as she walked away
I cast a guilty glance at Wei Guangyin, and saw his usually calm eyes flicker. "Oh, it's nothing. It's like being startled by firecrackers; I estimate it will be fine in a few months."
Wei Guangyin frightened me
My cheeks suddenly flushed with heat, and the fingers gripping my knees tightened awkwardly, "Did you... hear that at the time?"
At this moment, I quietly engage in a debate with my memories, as a gentle breeze of the night passes through my fingers, causing my entire heart to feel as if it is melting.
The ring is of a man's size, wrapped in sterling silver, and is threaded onto a chain
Why must it be her
It is said that on April Fool's Day, a good lady sent Liu Dazhuang a text message, expressing her feelings in a melodious manner, saying that she did not like him. Since it was April Fool's Day, it should be understood in reverse. However, this fellow seriously replied with three words: but I like you
In fact, I am not someone who cherishes flowers, but because it is a begonia, I regard it differently. This is because Wei Guangyin once told me that the words of the begonia follow the guidance of others. He said that my ability to read and write is quite strong, and if I am willing to learn, nothing can pose a challenge to me
It seems that the answers from those aged fourteen, fifteen, sixteen, seventeen, and eighteen are all the same. Zhou Yin no longer asks further questions, and after a brief pause, he inquires, "Why are fireworks so beautiful?"
We walked one after the other, passing by several clusters of blooming begonia flowers, vibrant and enchanting. Suddenly, a gust of wind blew, and half a flower fell onto the man's shoulder. He intended to brush it off, but I jumped up first to pluck it, saying how regrettable it would be to crush such a beautiful flower
At last ... ... I have caught you
We almost got into another argument when Sheng Shan rushed in, asking me to help buy ribbons at the convenience store, saying that there weren't enough ribbons for the stage.
It's all over. I've heard that liking someone is not frightening. What is frightening is that, in addition to liking them, you also admire them.
The fire in the Wei family's backyard has ignited
Indeed, I am the girl renowned for her all-around development in intellect, character, and physical fitness. I am a key player in the women's basketball tournament organized by the school. All of this is thanks to Liu Dazhuang, who has been my companion since childhood, pushing me to my limits and enhancing my physical strength. However, after that unfortunate incident, I have not had the opportunity to engage in vigorous exercise.
Cheng Suiwan: When will you help me pay for the link
Buying a suit in Xidan costs 8,800! Taking the bus and buying a ticket costs 880! Buying a pack of tissue paper in the restroom costs 88! Money is an external object, why be reluctant to spend it! ... Spending 50 million on a train is nothing!
Those who are not leaders are often more difficult to deal with. Being above ten thousand yet still below one person can easily create a psychological gap. Just then, Sheng Shan sent an urgent message and also left the hall. After pondering for a moment, I discussed with the girl who looked troubled, "Why don't you give me your share? I'll take the front row, and you can take the second row." I took on the messy situation.
However, I did not expect to see Gu Yuanyuan here
The atmosphere became serious for a moment, and he suddenly squinted and brought his face close to mine, "However, everyone has the right to advise me, except for you, Qingmei. Because you and I are both the kind of people who would still try to cross over even after hitting a wall."
"You are crazy." Sheng Sha pushed my head lightly and said, "To be serious, she is actually Ye Shenxun's junior sister, okay? Both of them graduated from the University of Pennsylvania."
As soon as his gaze fell upon me, I felt a weight at my feet, and turning around, I saw that my thigh was being held by the student who had just sold the ribbons, shouting, "Don't go! If you agree, then it's settled!"
Hey, doesn't that also imply that in the United States, she and Wei Guangyin might have already met? Given this context, it wouldn't be surprising.
Once, Zhou Yin agreed to a marriage alliance, and Ye Shenxun said to him: "If your mind is made up, then even pulling a single hair can move your entire being. It is forbidden to meet again, let alone be friends. For even a single glance, one will still yearn to possess."
In a moment of distraction, I can't help but feel that what he is crushing in his hand is my head
In the end, the present me has suppressed the me of the past, saying: you were wrong, in front of him, I have always been both foolish and timid.
In an instant, I felt as if my body were made of cotton, being pulled tight and bounced by several invisible strings, swaying in the air, unable to touch the ground. In a fleeting moment of consciousness, I seemed to catch a glimpse of myself in Wei Guangyin's eyes. That girl, whose brows were originally raised in delight, suddenly changed their arc, drooping downwards. The ball she had just embraced slipped suddenly from her palm, her knees resembling two freshly pulled bamboo shoots, still unformed, yet were broken by the wind and rain.
He tentatively called, "Suiwan?" The slender shoulders moved slightly, turned around, and stood up
When I first saw the supermarket under the Wei family, it was more crowded than during the New Year, and I expressed to the good lady my admiration for the intelligence of the planners of the "GO" project
Good boy, he hasn't practiced recently, and his skin is starting to itch again
The twilight deepened until the lights on the basketball court burned boundlessly, yet the game had not concluded
He actually frightened me
Certainly, it is often necessary to deal with external invasions
Emotionally, I wish to draw closer. Intellectually, I am more aware than anyone else that it is best to distance myself from your life. However, this battle between emotion and reason has lasted for two years, and tonight, it comes to an end, with reason conceding defeat
In early May, Q University planned a grand celebration for its centenary, inviting many important figures to attend the event
Suddenly, the young heiress of the environmental industry pulled Wei Guangyin's hand towards her, noticing the marks on the fine jade, and then frowned at me, saying, "Can't you be more careful?"
No matter how large the city is, there are only so many opportunities, and it is impossible to avoid collisions altogether. As I approached, I happened to overhear Zhou Yin consulting Ye Shenxun's opinion, as it seemed they were already beating the drums of war against the Wei family
Liu Dazhuang: Do you have any professional ethics at all? Can't you see that I am pouring out my heart? With your lack of patience and standards, you can still deceive people for money?
Wait for me... play a song "Do You Want to Fight the Bull?"
He was seated in the first row, slightly to the left, and Jie Jia was also present. Jie Ran must have noticed the small gesture when I just slipped a note to Ye Shenxun, her gaze seemed to be infused with chili oil, just waiting for the garlic to hit the pan, ready to fry me to a crisp. As I appeared to respectfully finish brewing the tea and moved forward, she hooked her ankle, causing me to lose my balance, and the entire kettle tilted and flew towards Wei Guangyin, who was two seats away.
If others do not offend me, I will not offend them. If someone offends me, I will eradicate them completely. This child is more ruthless than I imagined! Fortunately, during the days I delayed my work, I adopted a conciliatory approach towards her. If I had quarreled with her, I would probably have been silenced!
I just realized something is amiss. Where is that good lady? She has always been inseparable, yet today, with such an entertaining event, she is surprisingly absent.
Say nothing, yes, I know, I look like a fool, not much better than Liu Dazhuang. I even thought about immediately taking his hand and saying, "Disfigured? No problem, I will use the second half of my life to compensate for it." But I messed up the scene, and Sheng Shan probably wouldn't give me a chance to live the second half of my life, so I could only throw out a hurried "sorry" and completely escape.
In fact, she does not hold a significant share; apart from the humanitarian portion specified in the will, most of the remaining shares are allocated to Wei Guangyin. However, for Wei Guangyin to exercise power independently, the prerequisite is to obtain the approval of the board of directors through voting
I do not answer the phone because I am ill! What illness do I have? I have a mental illness!
What a show-off! People like him only know how to talk big
She was the first to notice me, jumping up from the crowd to wave at me beside the impeccably dressed middle-aged man, cutting off Wei Guangyin's line of sight
I know you are a fraud, but it doesn't matter, I have money. If you are willing to chat with me in her tone for ten minutes, I will help you pay for ten such links
"Did it explode like a firecracker?" the girl exclaimed
Ye Shenxun noticed my clumsiness and actually lowered himself to teach me the techniques hand in hand, forgetting that just a moment ago he had said that the most lowly thing he had ever done was to get to know me
In order to change the foolish and timid situation, I plan to muster the courage to question, "What’s wrong with being bare-armed? If others can do it, why can’t you?" However, what comes out instead is: "I understand, I’m getting older, and it’s quite indecent to be exposed like this."
Those who understand him know that he has a rather indifferent disposition and that there are few women he truly cares about. Only she is somewhat special. It is only through being special that one can captivate without leaving a trace.
Five minutes later, a ringtone even more robust than Liu Dazhuang's rang out
It is said that the new policy under the Wei Group was proposed by Wei Guangyin. The board of directors seems to be quite satisfied with his initial performance, which has mitigated the negative impression left from the previous incident at the cemetery. This time, their 'Go' project has garnered an impressive level of attention, not only attracting us but also drawing customers away from the established Lock & Lock mall, achieving a fifty percent loss in customer flow.
Sheng Shan is a member of the student council, assigned to oversee the stage props. Some were busy and had no time to manage the two of us, and the wind suddenly died down. I was out of breath, panting and calling for a pause, while he, in high spirits, was smoking a cigarette and whistling at a passing new female student, fully embodying the appearance of a young dandy.
She lowered her voice but did not say anything harsh, maintaining her politeness. After receiving a look of admiration from Qi Yueying, she turned her head to ask the person beside her, "Are you alright?"
It is difficult for me to have so many thoughts, and she has already turned to find her father
Senior brother! I awkwardly withdrew my leg from the boy's arm and waved at him.
On the night before Wei Yan's passing, it seemed as if he had a premonition that something unfortunate was about to occur, and he took the time to visit his son on the island, even though it was not a holiday. The father and son had not had a heart-to-heart conversation for many years; most of the time, Wei Yan spoke while his son listened.
Among the Thirty-Six Stratagems, there is a stratagem called "Blossoms on a Tree." This refers to the situation where a tree originally has no flowers, but one can use artificial flowers to adorn it, making it difficult for others to distinguish between the real and the fake. If one is weak in strength, one can leverage the power of others to appear strong, thereby creating an illusion of grandeur to intimidate the enemy
I scoffed, "Did she not just give you a bottle of baby cream? Is it necessary for you to dwell on it for over ten years? If I were a proper lady, I would scratch your face and then take you for plastic surgery; I fear you would remember me for a lifetime"
In the center of the stage, vibrant university students are exuberantly expressing their youth. Ye Shenxun tilted her chin towards this side, and I finally noticed that Miss Sheng was calling me from a distance. It seemed that she had been calling for quite some time, and her gaze was sharp enough to kill, but in the end, she refrained from taking action, as she truly lacked manpower.
Of course, the con artist reacted faster than I did; he would not let Liu Dazhuang, this foolish second-generation rich kid, slip away. He immediately agreed, and thus the two of them began to chat enthusiastically.
... ...
Painful Love
Isn't it about following the guidance of others
I sat in the last row, still immersed in the sentiment of "What does it matter to buy a train for fifty million"
Wei intends to expand into the environmental protection sector, and the upper management naturally places great importance on my relationship with He’s daughter. Once the photos are leaked, "Wei Guangyin rubbed his forehead, "let's see who cannot sit still"
The ideal has now been realized
The space in front and behind the auditorium is ample, and the height is also designed reasonably, allowing one person to walk upright. A girl and I entered from the first two rows of the hall. In the middle, the girl in the first row noticed that the tea was almost gone. Just then, there were only a few people left before the newly appointed deputy leader of Bincheng, and she suddenly became extremely flustered
Gu Fu is the head of a well-known publishing group in Bincheng, and Gu Yuanyuan accompanied him as an outstanding alumnus family member. It is said that the editor-in-chief with the surname He indeed acted out of personal vendetta, and that night, upon returning, he ordered the Human Resources Department to dismiss Gu Yuanyuan, not realizing that he was bringing trouble upon himself
The person fell silent, their gaze dimmed, "I have no other choice"
Out of the corner of my eye, I caught sight of a few girls from the student council, who hurriedly ran over, tugging at their skirts. I looked up and saw Qi Yueying. Her slender back flashed, revealing Wei Guangyin's profile.
Since ancient times, only those ministers who are willing to recommend, support, and acknowledge you, and ultimately obey you, can achieve the path of an emperor. How can one gain the support and acknowledgment of the ministers? It is through the mutual balance of various forces. One must not allow one side to grow too strong, nor should one side be allowed to diminish; they must be interconnected and mutually restrained.
In a wavering gaze, I stood up holding the ball as if I were holding my own head, and said with a fearless attitude towards death
It is inevitable that there will be internal traitors within the group. Shortly after he proposed the 'go' project, Shen Zhou quickly introduced countermeasures. He is well aware of Ye Shenxun's capabilities, and with the addition of Zhou Yin, it is not surprising that a rapid response was made. What is strange is that the new policies implemented by Shen Zhou not only address the immediate situation but also seem to have a clear understanding of his future plans. Although Ming does not appear to be conspicuous, he is the planner and knows better than anyone the advantages of 'go', as well as its disadvantages. What is strange is that the new policies implemented by Shen Zhou not only address the immediate situation but also seem to have a clear understanding of his future plans. Although Ming does not appear to be conspicuous, he is the planner and knows better than anyone the advantages of 'go', as well as its disadvantages.
If I divert a bit of my attention, perhaps he will pound his chest and complain to me, "This scoundrel actually stole Suiwan's QQ to swindle me out of money!"
She spoke half-truths and half-lies, her smile blooming like flowers in the sky, clustered together. The delicate demeanor of the little girl was like water, irresistible to hold, causing Zhou Yin's heart to suddenly feel a wave of dampness.
Ye Shenxun gritted his teeth and said, "I've done even more lowly things than this, such as getting to know you." After saying this, he turned around and left
Liu Dazhuang, filled with curiosity, stared in the same direction as I did and asked, "What is the background of that woman?"
Look, look, the wolf is coming over...
I am Sui Wan
He Bo took his later words, "Unable to sit still, instead genuinely thinking for the group, able to sit still..."
It is visually disturbing
Originally, the longing that needed to be expressed through another's ears suddenly felt like a lump in his throat. In the end, he said nothing, suppressing the overwhelming emotions within him. He took her luggage, acting as a guide, leading her through the surging crowd, shielding them from the world's disturbances
Zhou Yin and Ye Shenxun co-founded Shen Zhou, initially modeled after the renowned Wall Street investment bank KKR, specializing in mergers and acquisitions. Liu Dazhuang's father was one of the companies acquired by Shen Zhou. Now, Shen Zhou possesses a sufficiently diversified resource base and has begun investing in shopping malls and various mid-range brands, as well as developing its own products, focusing on modern industry, which overlaps significantly with the fields that Wei has ventured into.
The fine rain fell like a curtain of pearls, intermittently tapping against the glass window. He Bo handed the information he had just received to Wei Guangyin. With a casual glance, he saw the scene of the basketball court, where countless clouds of smoke erupted, and Cheng Gai Gai was wrapped in her delicate profile.
The good sunlight overhead was suddenly sliced into chunks by a scythe, crashing down onto the sturdy boy's frame.
Wei Guangyin has a deep understanding of the Olympic spirit, respecting his opponents. In the midst of our exchanges, he never intended to gain the upper hand at every turn. Occasionally, he would reveal a hint of pride, glancing at my eyes, which were agitated and rolling in frustration, with a smile breaking through his furrowed brows.
Cheng Suiwan : ... ...
Seeing Sheng Shan, she also had an impression, "Isn't this? Isn't this the Tianshan child from the popular scarf..."
She suddenly displayed a lovesick expression similar to Cheng Gaigai's, "Let's watch the fireworks together"
How could Liu Dazhuang be deceived by such petty tricks? Immediately let your imagination run wild: You say you are at the airport, and there is a police station at the airport where you can make free calls, didn't you know? Do you need me to take you there
People gradually took their seats in the auditorium, and Ye Shenxun did not know when he was led to the VIP seats. I took a moment to gossip with Gu Yuanyuan.
I am so happy
Never had a proper boy, suddenly my eyes became moist
The estrangement with my father began to lessen from that moment. However, in many matters, we believe there will always be opportunities for change; while opportunities may indeed exist, a person does not return.
Playing basketball is fine, but my wish to see myself shirtless is probably difficult to realize. Wei Guangyin approached me along with the bouncing ball, his tone unhurried, yet clearly laced with mockery
At the renowned summit of Zhongnan Mountain on campus, Sheng Shan bestowed a smile more captivating than fireworks upon the man beside her, "Do you know what my dream was when I was twelve?"
As the ball approached the hoop, I jumped in place, as if what I was aiming for was not the basket, but the heart I had pursued for many years
Liu Dazhuang: How are you? Have you recovered?
Zhou Yin is very cooperative, "What?"
The language of the begonia flower is the pain of love. When that person gave it to you, they probably hoped you would disappear quickly, right
Seeing me, the two of them seemed to have said something, and then the girl turned and left. When Ye Shenxun approached with an indifferent demeanor, my puzzled gaze lingered on her back, "When did you two..." She is from Wei Guangyin's circle
The liar over there also looks adorable, feigning a sudden realization: Oh? How did I not think of that? Then the expression turned dark.
In the midst of my distraction, I did not notice Liu Dazhuang beside me, who was eagerly sending messages to someone.
What about the dreams of a thirteen-year-old
In this day and age, does rejecting someone have to be so mentally taxing? The line between truth and falsehood is blurred, with what is real seeming fake and what is fake appearing real
Liu Dazhuang's self-mocking smile lifted as he said: Look, even if you are not yourself, you still refuse to accept my heart
My actions are neither too grand nor too trivial, yet they are sufficient for Ye Shenxun's surrounding people to notice something unusual and cast their gazes in my direction
Having tasted the sweetness of victory, I excitedly ran over to pick up my 'weapon', turned back to wave at the remarkable person not far away, saying, 'Come again, come again!' However, as I lowered my raised arm, I was astonished to find it suddenly go limp.
Hehe, are you surprised to be heard saying that at the classroom door
Colorful balloons rolled around him, reflecting a spectrum of colors in his gaze, creating a stunning sight. Just as I was lost in my infatuation, a sudden surge of people indicated that the first wave of guests had arrived early.
Once, I believed that as a qualified daughter of a wealthy family, the tasks of serving tea and pouring water should be something that Sheng Sha had never done. However, she once again elevated my understanding of the elite class to a new height
Waste? With this wave, she has stirred up Zhou Yin's true feelings. I too would like to indulge once, to see who would travel a thousand miles for me. Whoever comes, I shall marry.
Upon arriving at the cafeteria, Liu Dazhuang was still nowhere to be seen, and my calls to him went unanswered. Could it be that he is too embarrassed to return because the ringtone is too embarrassing? He is not usually someone who is so concerned about face.
Liu Dazhuang said that he had invited Wei Guangyin, but was declined on the grounds of academic commitments
Upon closer inspection, the remnants of the balloon explosion lay in the man's palm, yet he remained composed and instructed Liu Wei, "What happened? Find a better quality one."
Q is planning to establish a new campus, so today's occasion is not only for celebration but also for attracting investment. Naturally, many construction companies are eager to partake in projects of such a century-old institution.
On the other side of the city, Liu Dazhuang even forgot to ask for the money he needed to reimburse the driver, as he hurriedly rushed to the KFC in the airport. He had made an appointment with someone to reunite here.
Some people cannot help but take another glance, yet they cannot become friends, because they desire to possess. Just like you, in relation to me
I have broken my promise
The young little person in my heart suddenly emerged and shouted: Don't count it! Just bully me! In this life, who can escape being bullied? Bullied by family! Bullied by the boss! Bullied by the editor! Bullied by friends! When luck is not on your side, you might even be bullied by passersby! Since we are all being bullied, why not let it be you who bullies me
In the depths of the person's eyes before me, there is a brilliance akin to fireworks and flowing light, rivaling the stars and the sea. I feel as if enchanted, my fingers, as if guided by an unseen force, tightly grasping a corner of his front garment, my voice barely a whisper.
In the late night, it rained, and the brilliant traces have all vanished, leaving only the silence after the commotion, accompanied by a slight chill.
But who says that playing basketball must involve splashing mineral water, bumping chests, and doing pull-ups?
I quickly covered her mouth, fearing that Sheng Shan would silence her on the spot
Cheng Suiwan: Do not worry, everything has returned to normal
The landlord Ye looked at my feigned humble appearance and slyly blinked his eye, seemingly unsure of what was going on. He slowly opened it, revealing only a question that was both amusing and perplexing: "Am I beautiful today?"
Seeing me holding the ball and not moving, Wei Guangyin became suspicious, yet he did not intend to force the issue, "Forget it, I inexplicably feel like I am bullying you"
The girl nodded thoughtfully and said, "Hmm, so the first thing to do at twenty-three is to change one's ideals"
Sheng Shan pulled me from behind, bringing me to the staff position, alongside Liu Dazhuang, and quietly advised us not to cause any trouble
The centennial celebration fireworks continue, red, purple, blue, deafening.
In an instant, there were two little figures in my heart pulling at each other, slapping each other in the face.
Sheng Shan called at the right time and asked me what I was doing, complaining about the fuss over buying a ribbon. "The guests have already started to arrive, and we need to stand at the entrance to hand out corsages. We are short-staffed, so hurry back."
He received a copy of the same photo beside him. A momentary grayness flickered in the man's eyes, quickly replaced by a sharpness akin to that of a hawk. The text message still lingered on the screen, displaying the conversation with Zhou Yin.
When I successfully captured that person's startled expression with my affectionate gaze, I was unaware that a reporter had already taken a picture of this moment
Cheng Suiwan: ... . ... I just want to say, if you could help me with the payment earlier, I would be able to give you a call and return the money to you in person
The boy took a deep drag of tobacco and said, "Actually, there is something even harsher that you haven't mentioned, right? You want to say that even if she comes back, she will have no heart for me." It was then that I suddenly realized Liu Wei was not foolish
The ordeal is not yet over, the hot water in the kettle has run out, I went backstage to refill it, and when I came out, it was inevitable to deal with Wei Guangyin.
Liu Dazhuang: Hehe. Although the whole world can see that I like you, I have never dared to tell you in person. When you had an accident and were lying in the hospital, I could only dare to look at you from a distance through the glass. Suiwan, I miss you very much
At a centennial celebration like this, among thousands of students, only a few are qualified to assist in the inner venue. Thinking of this, I feel somewhat comforted; at least she can still help with minor tasks like serving water, can't she
Crossing through the colorful fireworks alone, without witnessing the myriad of rushing rivers, a decade of prolonged meditation in my heart, seeking only a moment
The auditorium is back to normal order.
It is indeed a sight to behold; a person who usually moves with the grace of a painting suddenly comes to play basketball with us, splashing mineral water and bumping chests, then showing off their muscles by doing a few pull-ups with a snap. This scene...
Wei Guangyin tilted the corner of his mouth, seemingly particularly fond of my insincere demeanor, "It's not that; I fear you might feel guilty upon seeing the wound I caused you this afternoon." It was only then that I noticed the length of his sleeves, which conveniently covered the red mark close to the bone of his hand.
The tax contributions of Bincheng, how much is attributed to the Ye family and a few others, need not be elaborated. I deliberately threw a note to demonstrate my acquaintance with Ye Shenxun, and naturally, the other party would not make an issue out of a trivial matter concerning a small amount of tea leaves
Wei Guangyin closed his eyes and said, "The enemy is in the dark. Although the method of testing one by one is clumsy, it is currently the most effective." As for Cheng Gaigai...
Following the petite figure, the gaze inevitably meets Wei Guangyin's straightened back.
Just when I had bought something, I saw her standing together with Ye Shenxun. They couldn't possibly be conspiring about something unspeakable...
The scheme succeeded, and I quickly made my escape to the back stage, disregarding how furious Ye Shenxun was behind me, to the point of laughter
Liu Dazhuang, eager to join the fray, heard that I was going to commit myself and chimed in, "How can marriage be treated so lightly? What if the other person is just passing by? Wouldn't that just waste someone else's time?" It turns out that his concern was not for me, but for others.
After dinner, I walked out of the school gate, kicking small stones along the way while cursing Sheng Shan. As I passed the basketball court, I was captivated by a figure.
After leaving Shen Zhou, he is no longer my boss. Given the circumstances, he also seems disinterested in being friends with me. I am unsure how to address him appropriately, so I simply followed Sheng Shan's lead and called him "senior brother"
There is a bench on the basketball court, neither too far nor too close. I sat down and watched him make a three-pointer. The basketball that landed seemed to have a consciousness of its own, bouncing right in front of me
Liu Wei
I perked up my ears as Sheng Shan, looking delicate, frowned and replied: "I am not sure either. However, I heard from Zhou Yin that both the Wei family and the Ye family plan to venture into environmental protection, seemingly because of the daughter of an international environmental giant. She has been living abroad for many years, so the domestic media is not very familiar with her. To have caught Qi Yueying's attention, her background must be quite impressive"
I have returned
I used to not understand why people have a special fondness for KFC. Now I have some understanding; the strong atmosphere of everyday life here can create a sense of simple yet profound happiness.
I originally did not intend to trouble him, after all, it is not easy for a person to venture out alone. As long as he keeps the peace, I would treat it as if nothing had happened. However, he, the villain, took the initiative to complain, wielding a feather as if it were a sword of authority, and I cannot tolerate it
Be your bride
Sheng Shan reserved an extra portion of sweet and sour pork for me. Seeing me munching away, she remarked that my eating posture was too ungraceful and brazenly took the bowl to run over to Zhou Yin's table. Before leaving, she mentioned that there would be a fireworks display in the evening and asked if I wanted to stay to watch.
Seeing me lost in thought while holding the flower, Ye Shenxun furrowed his brows and said, "You look so serious; could it be that someone has gifted you a begonia?" His words carried a deeper meaning, but I was completely unaware. Suddenly, I exclaimed in realization, "It seems that is the case"
The student performance has concluded, and a series of activities will follow, with dinner arranged on campus. As dusk falls and the crowd begins to surge outward, I raise my eyes in search of Liu Dazhuang's figure, but instead, I catch sight of Zhou Yin and Ye Shenxun.
Sheng Shannu pouted and said, "Ideals, before they are realized, are merely goals for effort."
Fearing that Wei Guangyin would grow suspicious, I made a concerted effort to steady myself. My steps, indeed, stubbornly came to a halt, pretending that my leg had suddenly slipped.
All eyes in the room suddenly turned towards him, freezing in place, causing the veins on his forehead to bulge in fear. He ran out of the auditorium at lightning speed, and as he reached the exit, he exclaimed: "You old man! You really dare to come at me!"
For someone like Ye Shenxun, it is certainly nothing. For the daughter of an environmental giant, it is also not a big deal. In martial arts novels, it is said that one must meet an equal opponent; otherwise, a master would not even bother to engage in a fight with you. Yet, Wei Guangyin and I have never been on the same level. I cannot assist him in his future, nor can I restrain Ye Chailang, who is eyeing the Wei family with predatory intent.
