The following afternoon, Gao Yan saw Zheng Xiaoyu off on the high-speed train back to Shanghai before driving to the school.

All exam results have been released.

He got A's or higher in all his subjects, so he can relax and wait for the summer vacation to arrive.

Cheng Hao failed one subject, which isn't a big problem. As for Zhou Yuchao, he failed almost every subject, which is a bit of a disaster.

It's worth mentioning that last Friday, two branches of Brothers Hot Pot opened simultaneously in Nandu.

"Haozi, how's business at the branch?"

Gao Yan asked casually that he had only sent a flower basket to the branch opening, stayed for a while and then left. He was busy with other things on Saturday and Sunday and hadn't had time to ask Cheng Hao yet.

Cheng Hao, who had been looking a bit down because of the upcoming exam, perked up immediately when Gao Yan mentioned the hot pot restaurant. He said excitedly, "It's even better than I expected! The North City branch broke 400,000 yuan in revenue on its opening day, and the South City branch was slightly less successful, but it still broke 350,000 yuan on its opening day. Moreover, the revenue of both branches continued to rise on Saturdays and Sundays!"

"Congratulations!"

Gao Yan sincerely offered his blessings.

That same day, counselor Fan Xin announced the holiday schedule: summer vacation would begin this Thursday, which would be June 27th.

4:30 PM.

Gao Yan logged into the stock trading software and glanced at the stock price of Ausnutria Pharmaceuticals. Just as the information in his mind showed, it hit the daily limit and closed at 84.5 yuan.

The stock will continue to hit the daily limit tomorrow and the day after, at which point the price will break through 100.

He can sell his stocks next Wednesday.

On the snack street, I stumbled upon a milk tea shop.

"Have you all decided what you want to eat tomorrow?"

Gao Yan asked Chen Youwei, Shen Lingling, and the other two women.

“Senior brother, I keep seeing pictures of Brothers Hot Pot on my WeChat Moments these past few days. I heard the food there is really good. How about we go eat hot pot?” Shen Lingling said.

"Yes, I saw it on my WeChat Moments too. I heard that this hot pot restaurant is very popular, and if you go late, you have to wait in line for a long time!" another employee chimed in.

"No problem!"

Gao Yan smiled and said, "The owner of Brothers Hot Pot is my friend. I can make reservations in advance so we don't have to wait in line. How about this, let's set the time for tomorrow night at 7 pm. The gathering will be at the Brothers Hot Pot restaurant in the south of the city. The employees of the other two restaurants can take taxis there themselves. As for you, I'll drive you there!"

After staying at the milk tea shop for a while, Gao Yan prepared to leave.

However, Chen Youwei caught up with them.

With a sudden thought, Gao Yan tossed a data eye at Chen Youwei, whose favorability rating was neither high nor low, exactly 70 points.

"What's up?"

Gao Yan looked at her and asked.

"Senior brother, can I get an advance of two thousand yuan of my salary?" Chen Youwei, who had stopped bowing her head, lowered it again.

"What will it be used for?" Gao Yan asked.

"Grandma is sick and needs money for treatment," Chen Youwei whispered.

"Is two thousand enough?" Gao Yan asked. "Do you need to go home and see your grandmother?"

"Enough!"

Chen Youwei nodded: "Grandma kept it from me before she was hospitalized. I only found out today when my younger sister secretly called me to say that we didn't have enough money for medical expenses. But Grandma won't let me go back, saying it's too wasteful of money!"

"Where are you from?" Gao Yan asked again.

“Yangshan City in the southwest,” Chen Youwei said.

"What a coincidence, I'm also from the Southwest. Have you heard of Jiangzhu City?" Gao Yan asked with a smile.

"I've heard of it."

Chen Youwei nodded again.

“Here’s what we’ll do: I’ll give you an advance of 3,000 yuan. Your grandma will need extra nutrition after she’s discharged from the hospital!” As he spoke, Gao Yan transferred 3,000 yuan to Chen Youwei via WeChat.

"Thank you so much, senior brother!" Chen Youwei said gratefully.

"Do you want to go back?" Gao Yan asked again.

"Yes!" Chen Youwei said decisively.

Gao Yan said, "I plan to drive back to my hometown after the holiday, but I'll only stay for a few days. If you want to go back, let me know before the holiday so you can save on travel expenses!"

Chen Youwei looked up at Gao Yan, seemingly trying to read something from his face, but she was also a little hesitant.

"Don't overthink it, it's just on the way. Even if you don't go back, I'll still go back!"

After his mental strength broke through 90 points, Gao Yan's mind became extremely sharp, and he instantly grasped Chen Youwei's thoughts. In fact, he did not lie to Chen Youwei; he did intend to go back, but he had not planned to drive beforehand.

Driving over a thousand kilometers is really tiring.

It's more convenient to take a plane.

"Thank you, senior brother, I'm going back now!"

"Okay, Thursday's a day off, we'll leave Friday morning, is that alright?"

"Um!"

"Alright, let's go back to work!"

With a wave of his hand, Gao Yan turned and left.

I had just walked into the residential area when the phone rang.

After the call was answered, a grumpy female voice rang out: "Hey Mr. Gao, do you even know what day tomorrow is?"

What day is it?

Gao Yan did not understand the question.

Fang Zhenzhen said irritably, "It seems you really don't know that our PC version and app will officially launch tomorrow. Shouldn't you, as the boss, be in the company to oversee things?"

"So fast?"

Gao Yan was somewhat surprised.

Upon hearing this, Fang Zhenzhen was speechless and too lazy to waste words with Gao Yan: "I'll be online at nine o'clock tomorrow morning, come or not, it's up to you!"

Before Gao Yan could respond further, the other party hung up the phone.

Gao Yan wasn't angry or bothered by this, after all, he had indeed gone too far as a boss by leaving everything to Fang Zhenzhen.

It was 7 p.m.
