Tao Mu stood stupidly at the ticket window, feeling that the extent to which he was affected by Shen Yu's aura of reduced intelligence must be deeper, farther, and longer-lasting than he thought.

"Hello, could you please show me your passport?" The ground staff at the window reminded again with a polite smile.

"Ah?" Tao Mu came back to his senses, feeling particularly embarrassed: "Nothing, I won't buy it for now. Sorry to bother you."

Tao Mu pulled the suitcase and retreated a few dozen steps away, covered in dust. Even though he didn't want to admit it, he still gritted his teeth and called Li Xiaoheng.

Far away on the other side of the earth, Li Xiaoheng had planned a perfect tour plan during his work break, waiting for Tao Mu to fly over and meet up with him. He looked at his phone that suddenly vibrated, and couldn't help but smile as he picked up the phone: "Have you booked the plane ticket? What's the flight number? What time will it arrive? I'll pick you up."

"That..." Tao Mu scratched his nose and said embarrassedly: "I may not be able to go."

It was as if his heart skipped a beat, and the expectant partner felt his heart sink slightly. After quickly calming down his disappointment, Li Xiaoheng asked in a gentle voice, "What's wrong? Are you too busy with work over there, so you can't come over? That doesn't matter, we can do it later--"

"I forgot to apply for a passport and visa!" Tao Mu felt his face flushed and his cheeks were burning, and he interrupted Li Xiaoheng with great difficulty.

A few seconds later, a few extremely suppressed laughs came from the other end of the receiver. Li Xiaoheng coughed twice like a gentleman, suppressed his smile, and asked sympathetically, "Is this your first time going abroad?"

This is indeed the first time in my life!

Tao Mu hung his head, unable to bear the fact that he would make such a low-level mistake: "I'm sorry, I——"

Tao Mu rubbed his face in an upset state, feeling that he didn't even have the face to say sorry - if this were a business negotiation, with his intelligence and efficiency, he wouldn't even have to go to the negotiation table, he would have been kicked out directly. Others asked him how he got out of the situation - his visa and passport were not approved and were stuck at customs.

If this can defeat the competitors, they will definitely die of laughter.

Tao Mu wished he could find a crack in the ground to crawl into. Why does he always make such low-level mistakes in front of Li Xiaoheng!

It will definitely affect his image as a think tank in the eyes of the big guys!

"No need to apologize. This is not your fault." Li Xiaoheng comforted him in a gentle voice: "I didn't know it was your first time going abroad, and I forgot to remind you."

"It has nothing to do with you. I'm just too stupid." Tao Mu didn't know why he was so stupid. He felt that although Li Xiaoheng didn't say it, he must be disgusted in his heart by the stupid mistake he made.

But he didn't know that Li Xiaoheng was smiling brightly on the other end of the phone. He himself did not even notice the tolerance and indulgence in that smile.

I just feel that partners who are always smart and have a thorough understanding of the futures market can also make this kind of common sense mistake. So silly and cute, very adorable.

It seemed as if the distance was shortened all of a sudden. Li Xiaoheng could even picture Tao Mu pulling his hair in annoyance in his mind. He patiently comforted Tao Mu: "It's nothing. I just feel a little sorry that I can't spend the holiday with you. As for the specific details of launching Feixun.com in Country M, we can talk on the phone."

"Yeah." Tao Mu hung up the phone in a depressed mood, carrying his suitcase and rolling back into the night.

Liu Yao and his wife were in the store, watching the bartender Awen thinking about new cocktails. When they saw Tao Mu coming in with a big suitcase, they were shocked: "Why are you back? Didn't you say you were going to Country M?"

"I don't have a visa or passport." Tao Mu had no expression on his face. He felt that he no longer needed to be shameless.

Fortunately, his brother Yao never let him down: "Aren't you going on a trip?" Do you need a visa and passport too?

As soon as the words fell, the night, which was originally filled with some tiny noises, suddenly became quiet. The waiters who had not yet come to work, as well as the young masters and princesses, looked at each other, and finally their eyes fell on Liu Yao.

Meng Qi sighed helplessly and pushed Liu Yao with his hand: "Don't talk anymore."

"What's wrong?" Liu Yao was very straightforward: "I have never been out of Yanjing in my life. What's wrong with being short-sighted? Is that okay?"

"Okay, of course." Ah Wen placed the prepared cocktail in front of Liu Yao and said with a smile: "Even if our brother Yao goes to Country M, he will probably have to sneak in. So passports and visas are useless to our brother Yao. Our brother Yao has no such awareness at all. It's understandable. Dahui, don't you think so?"

Dahui put on sunglasses with an expressionless face, his desire to survive was very strong.

All the employees burst into laughter. Liu Yao was furious: "Hey, how can you talk like that? Who are you looking down on? Why is my going to Country M illegal? According to you, I will never be able to step on the land of capitalism in my lifetime? I don't believe this."

As he spoke, he stretched out his long arm and put it around Meng Qi's shoulders: "We will go to apply for visas and passports after October 1st. Didn't Old M say that there is a great beach in Hawaii? I will take you on a honeymoon, bring your bikini--"

"Get lost! You're the one wearing a bikini." Meng Qi angrily elbowed Liu Yao away and comforted Tao Mu: "It's okay, after the National Day holiday, we'll go get a visa and passport together. By the way, we'll also get one for Mr. Song, and we'll go on a family trip when you have your winter break."

"I want to go on a family trip, too!" The few size zeros sitting nearby raised their thin arms with a smile, "Brother Qi, why don't you talk to Brother Yao about our employee benefits this winter being a vacation in Hawaii. I want to wear a bikini, too~"

"Get lost! Have you earned enough money to go on vacation in Hawaii?" Before Meng Qi could speak, Liu Yao snorted, and said with a strong desire to survive: "Besides, you look like a chicken, why are you wearing a bikini? Aren't you afraid that foreigners will get corns after seeing your bikini?"

"Then I have brought glory to my country!" Little Zero straightened his body proudly: "And Brother Yao, that's called stye. Corns are on the feet. Do you have any common sense?"

"That's right!" Another gigolo laughed and said, "Besides, Brother Yao, if you take Xiao Ling to Hawaii for vacation, Xiao Ling might be able to earn some foreign exchange. What can you do by taking Tao Mu with you? He is a college student now and will be a big star in the future. Didn't you say that we can't curry favor with him? Then why are you so partial to him——"

"That's enough!" Liu Yao shouted, slamming his glass down on the bar: "Do you have the right to speak here?"

Seeing that Liu Yao was really angry, the cowherd stood up quickly and defended himself with a fearful look on his face: "Brother Yao, I am standing up for you. Someone wants to climb high branches and become a phoenix, and they look down on us for being lowly."

"You're not fucking done yet, are you—"

"Brother Yao." Tao Mu interrupted Liu Yao and bowed deeply to everyone present: "I know I was ignorant before and it hurt everyone. I hope everyone will give me a chance."

"Don't worry." A singer wearing smoky makeup, bare-chested and a leather vest snorted coldly: "You are a big boss now, and you will be a big star in the future. We can't afford to be with you."

"Brother Seven." Tao Mu looked at the resident singer sitting behind the drum set and bowed his head to admit his mistake: "I'm sorry."

Seven sneered, licked the inside of his cheek with his tongue, and said nothing.

"That's enough!" Liu Yao glanced at Seven and said, "We are all grown men. Let's forget about it. Don't be petty. Seven, you are already in your twenties. Why are you arguing with a child?"

Meng Qi began to lecture Tao Mu: "What you did before was a bit unkind. It just so happens that everyone is here today, why don't you show us your skills and treat everyone to a meal to make amends."

Tao Mu quickly agreed: "Hey. I'll go to the kitchen now."

Tao Mu threw the suitcase aside and went into the kitchen with his tail between his legs.

Little Zero, who had previously clamored to go to Hawaii to earn foreign exchange, blinked her big eyes covered with mascara and eyeliner and said, "I'll go help too."

"Hey, come back!" The cowherd who spoke first saw Xiao Linghao jumping into the kitchen and threw his clothes in anger: "How can you be so spineless? Are you just going to let it go?"

"You have guts! Don't eat when Tao Mu finishes cooking the food." Liu Yao glanced at the little cowherd.

The little cowherd stiffened his neck and said, "If you don't want to eat it, then don't eat it!"

Before Liu Yao could get angry, he muttered to himself: "I just drink."

This coward was caught off guard and the crowd burst into laughter again.

Tao Mu was looking for ingredients in the kitchen. Hearing the laughter in front of him, he also smiled. The little Zero who followed him in sighed and shook his head: "Don't do this again, kid! It's so hurtful!"

Tao Mu smiled: "You sound like you are much older than me."

"Three years older is still older. You still have to call me brother." Little Zero raised his finger and rolled his eyes delicately: "Make me a vegetarian Kung Pao Chicken later. I'm trying to lose weight recently and I don't dare to eat meat. I'm almost dying of greed."

"Okay." Tao Mu looked through the refrigerator: "Do you have water gluten? Help me find it."

"Oh, you look for it yourself. The manicure has just been done, so you can't work. Besides, Brother Yao doesn't allow new cooks to move things around, so everything is in its previous position. Nothing has changed at all." Little Zero said in a nagging tone. Seeing Tao Mu suddenly stunned, he sighed earnestly and said, "So, Brother Yao and Brother Xiao Qi are really good to you. Now that you come back this time, don't make them angry in the future."

Little Zero said this, and without waiting for Tao Mu's reaction, he wiggled his little butt and went out. Tao Mu was the only one left standing in the empty kitchen, picking up different ingredients and seasonings from his familiar positions. The meal was cooked with ease.

On the other side, Yao Wenxiao, who always wanted to teach Tao Mu a lesson, also found the Weibo headquarters and wanted to discuss cooperation with the Weibo platform. As for the first thing to do in the cooperation, it is to join hands with Weibo to discredit Feixun.com and its founder.

Yao Wenxiao is the most beloved grandson of Yao Shengan, chairman of Shengan Group. Yuxiao Media, founded by Yao Wenxiao, is also very famous in Shanghai. Backed by the Saint-An Group, Yuxiao Media's influence even covers the Jiangnan region. Weibo’s top management originally thought that this cooperation was a powerful combination and was very much looking forward to it.

As a result, as soon as the negotiations began, the top management of Weibo felt something was wrong. Although it is unclear why Yao Wenxiao targeted Feixun.com and Tao Mu, Weibo will not give up this cooperation opportunity just because of inappropriate curiosity. He could only pretend to be nice by saying that "Feixun.com was established too recently and there is no black material found on its founder", while patiently negotiating other cooperation matters with Yao Wenxiao.

After finally fooling Yao Wenxiao, the publicity director in charge of publicity turned to the CEO and asked, "Do we need to adjust our publicity plan?"

"Not yet." The Weibo CEO disagreed: "When we do business, what matters is that harmony brings wealth. How can we slander our competitors at every turn?" What the Weibo CEO didn't say is that even if we slander them, we can't use too low-end methods. Do you really think that Feixun.com has no backers?

"Go back and find some time to call the guy from Feixun.com. You don't have to say too much. Just tell him about Yao Wenxiao's attitude." The Weibo CEO thought that Tao Mu, who founded Feixun.com, was a talent. Even if Feixun.com can no longer operate one day, it would be best if it were acquired by Weibo. By then, Tao Mu will be able to switch to Weibo, and we can work together. It’s always a favor to buy something in advance.

We are all in the same circle, we will see each other every day, so why offend others to death? Do you really think talents are worthless?
