Chapter 257: Confession! Destination! Future!
It is very cold on the top of Mount Huangshan.
Moreover, the accommodation fee at the top of the mountain is very expensive. There are only two hotels near Guangmingding, Guangmingding Mountain Villa and Baiyun Hotel. There are not only separate rooms but also beds here.
Therefore, many people with limited budgets live in beds, and some even camp with tents, especially college students who are on graduation trips.
After watching the sunset, people began to set up tents one after another in the large open space on Guangmingding.
And a group of people spontaneously sat together, wearing thick down jackets, drinking together, eating together, and singing together.
Lian Yi was in high spirits and decided not to go to the villa for dinner. Instead, she bought some snacks, drinks and beer and sat with a group of college students.
Lin Xiao also went out to buy a lot of barbecue.
There was a large circle of people sitting in the open space, about twenty or thirty of them.
"It's a pity that we can't light a bonfire here... Otherwise, it would be fun to sing songs and drink beer around the bonfire."
Everyone connected to each other's school.
“I’m from Beihang University.”
“I’m from Zhejiang University.”
“I’m from Shanda University.”
Then, some people looked at Lin Xiao and Lian Yi, because the two of them looked so outstanding, even though the lighting here was dim.
"We two are from Aurora..."
Then, the most muscular brother in the lead asked, "Are you all about to graduate from college?"
"I have a master's degree..."
"I also have a master's degree..."
"I'm a bachelor..."
"You're about to graduate, have you found a job yet?"
"I joined Datang Telecom."
"I'm going to the Industrial and Commercial Bank of China."
"I took the civil service exam and passed the interview."
"I will probably go abroad to study for a doctorate."
Basically, those who spoke up really had bright futures. Of course, there were also those from less-good schools, some of whom spoke up boldly, while others did not.
After drinking a little too much, everyone lost their restraint and started to become wild and started to brag.
"Damn, seeing you guys in pairs makes me feel so sad as a loner." The burly guy said, "I've even finished my master's degree and I've never had a relationship."
Then he began to tell his story.
He said that when he was a junior in college, he fell in love with a pretty girl in the school, and the pretty girl also liked him very much.
However, the school beauty's family has already arranged for her to study for a master's degree in the UK.
She was reluctant to leave, so she asked this guy if she wanted to go to the UK to study for a master's degree. If you don't want to, I can stay.
The guy thought and struggled for a day and a night, and finally told the girl, "Go and study for a master's degree."
Then... he resolutely cut off his feelings.
Since then, I have never fallen in love with any girl and there is no room for anyone in my heart.
Many people present were deeply moved.
After the buddy finished speaking, he gushed over two bottles of beer and shouted to the sky, "Tiantian, I miss you, I miss you!"
Lian Yi moved her extremely pretty face closer and gave Lin Xiao a mischievous look.
Looks cute.
Lin Xiao kissed her on the lips.
Lian Yi is very smart. She can tell right away that this guy is bragging.
Most of the stories he told were made up.
Because many people are not very attractive and have poor conditions, it is difficult for them to fall in love. For the sake of face or to deceive themselves, they will fall into some kind of fantasy.
Perhaps, this guy and that pretty girl did talk to each other a few times, and maybe they had eye contact a few times.
But...something like the beauty in the school is going to study abroad and she has to ask for his opinion, and as long as he doesn't agree, she will stay and so on.
It's all made up.
However, as he described this story to others over and over again, over time, he himself could no longer tell the truth from falsehood, and in his memory he even felt that this was the case.
People who are not very charming often like to use words to weave their own affectionate personality.
Either you are loyal and affectionate, or you have been hurt.
So, it’s not that I can’t find it, but I don’t want to look for it anymore.
People who really have a lot of stories are charming, while people who say they have a lot of stories are often unattractive.
Next, the guy took a guitar and started strumming the strings and singing.
The songs they sang were "Glory Days" and "Really Love You".
He couldn't play, he didn't even master some of the key chords, he just strummed randomly.
After the song was over, the guy quickly glanced at Lian Yi, the most beautiful girl present, and then at the several single girls.
Maybe he wants to find out if there is anyone attracted to him.
"Brother, is this fairy next to you your girlfriend?" asked the burly buddy.
Lian Yi put her face on Lin Xiao's shoulder and raised her hand so that people could see her ring.
Suddenly, there was another burst of strange screams from the people present.
"Brother, tell me your story." The sturdy buddy said, "How did you catch up with this fairy?"
"Yes, yes..." The girl next to him couldn't help but say, "You two are so good-looking, your love must be very wonderful."
"There must be a grand past..."
"Oh my god, when I saw you two, I couldn't help but imagine a 200,000-word romance." A chubby girl said, "You two are simply the most perfect love in our imagination."
"Yes, the feeling of a golden man and a jade woman."
"When I see you, I feel like this is what love is like."
Suddenly, Lin Xiao and Lian Yi became the focus.
"Tell us quickly, tell us quickly..." the crowd began to make a noise.
Lian Yi also looked at Lin Xiao with anticipation.
Lin Xiao: "Okay, then I'll tell you."
"My family has been in financial difficulty since I was a child. My mother told me that children from poor families have to grow up early..."
"And the girl next to me comes from a wealthy and powerful family."
“At that time, I was poor and frustrated.”
"So, I went to Yunnan, begged for three days and three nights, and got two things."
"One is the Half-Year-Old Handsome Pill, and the other is the Deep Love Gu."
"After eating it, within half a year, I became tall and handsome. And she was bewitched by me, and she fell in love with me for no apparent reason."
"From now on, I will live a wonderful life as a son-in-law."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone burst into laughter, and Lian Yi couldn't help but hit Lin Xiao a few more times.
He likes to talk nonsense all day long.
The fat girl said, "Handsome man, you can't do this. Love is so sacred, you can't joke about it. And... who are you kidding? You look very noble at first glance, and your family conditions must be very, very good. In ancient times, you would be the son of a duke."
Lian Yi said angrily: "Hey, please speak properly."
Lin Xiao: "Okay, I'll explain it in detail."
"In my previous life, when I was seventeen, I fell hopelessly in love with her."
“She despises me.”
"She has always been dazzling and lived the life that countless people dream of."
"I have been struggling on the fringes of society until I reached middle age, barely making a name for myself. My heart has long been broken, and all that is left is this handsome exterior."
"After more than ten years, I met her again and pursued her madly again."
"She married me, but we are not happy because she doesn't love me or doesn't love me."
"After leaving this world, I reincarnated once again and came back to find her."
"Po Meng watched me through life after life, and how hard I worked to pursue her, so she didn't give me the Meng Po soup, and let me reincarnate with my memories. She also gave me a pill that would make me handsome in half a year."
"Then, it became what you see now."
"So, it's very important to become handsome in half a year."
The fat girl: "Handsome guy, you are really annoying. The beginning is very touching, but the end is full of nonsense."
…………………………
After returning to the room.
Lian Yi was very angry and ignored Lin Xiao.
And I was crying for no apparent reason.
"What's wrong?" Lin Xiao asked.
Lian Yi: "Don't touch me, why do you say that?"
"Why do you say that I don't love you? I...I obviously love you so much."
"From the beginning to the end, it was obviously me who loved humbly."
"Why do you say that?"
Then, Lian Yi stared at Lin Xiao and said word by word: "From now on, you are not allowed to say such things again."
"You can say you don't love me, but you can't say I don't love you."
"You swear that you will never say such things again, not even a single word."
Lin Xiao raised his hand and said slowly: "I swear."
Lian Yi: "You are the most annoying and annoying person. You never let people be happy and joyful. You always want to stab people and stab me."
"Today is obviously my happiest day, and you still want to do this."
Then, she held Lin Xiao's face with both hands and said fiercely: "Next, you are not allowed to say anything that makes me unhappy. Do you hear me?"
"At least tonight, you are not allowed to say a word that will make me unhappy."
"Otherwise, I won't forgive you."
"Did you hear that?"
After saying that, she rubbed Lin Xiao's face hard, watched his handsome face deform in her little hands, pinched his mouth into the shape of a chicken, and giggled again.
"I heard it." Lin Xiao said, his voice sounded strange because his mouth was pinched.
Then, Lian Yi let Lin Xiao go. She went straight into the bathroom to take a shower and locked the door.
Then she took a shower and blow-dried her hair, and it took her almost an hour before she came out.
Wrapped in a big towel, her face was red and her beautiful big eyes seemed to be filled with tears.
"Go take a shower, go..."
"What are you looking at? Don't look at it..."
Lian Yi used both hands to push Lin Xiao directly into the bathroom.
Then she untied the bath towel, revealing her charming and graceful body like a willow, which was really as white as snow.
She was wearing only a pair of snow-white underwear.
Then she quickly got into bed, her face and neck red.
Even every breath she exhaled was hot.
And because she was nervous, she kept drinking water, but still couldn't cool down.
He reached out and took out the box of DuXs from the corner of the mattress, but after hesitating, he stuffed it back.
She seemed to be somewhat repulsed by this thing.
About twenty minutes later, Lin Xiao came out of the shower, still wearing pajamas.
Lian Yi was seen hiding completely under the quilt, with not even a strand of hair showing.
After a long while, seeing that Lin Xiao seemed to have no movement, she slightly leaned her head out.
Lin Xiao couldn't help but be stunned.
Such a beautiful and lovely Lian Yi.
Full of shyness, full of anticipation, and full of nervousness.
Lin Xiao turned off the lights and the whole room fell into darkness.
"Qiaoqiao, let me tell you something." Lin Xiao said.
The voice was very serious and solemn.
Lian Yi's side immediately fell into silence.
The air also became quiet.
After a long time, Lin Xiao still couldn't say it.
At this moment, he seemed to be facing a fatal choice.
Did you tell her yourself, or did someone else tell her?
Lian Zheng warned him and asked him to confess himself.
Because there is a saying that when a man cheats, I am the last one to know about it.
The damage is very great.
Therefore, Lin Xiao confessed himself, as if the harm would be less.
but……
At this point, Lin Xiao found it difficult to speak.
I even have a gut feeling that speaking it out loud will do more harm.
The whole room was filled with darkness. It was a painful, unbearable silence.
After a while, Lin Xiao spoke.
"I am dead serious about what I am about to say."
"No matter what happens next, no matter how terrible I am in your eyes."
"No matter how much you may hate me and curse me."
"I will never let you go. No matter where you run to, I will get you back."
"Even if I become the most shameless villain, I will not let you go. I want you to be my woman and give birth to my children."
"Even if thousands of people point fingers at me and spit on me."
"No matter how much it costs, I will never let you go."
“That’s it…that’s it…”
……………………
The next day!
Lin Xiao returned to Shanghai.
At this point, the negotiations that had lasted for more than a month were almost coming to an end.
This is the largest negotiation Lin Xiao has ever had since he started his business, and also the most important business layout.
The cooperation among various groups is intertwined.
First, SoftBank Group invested in Lightning Entertainment for US$300 million and acquired a 20% stake.
Item 2: SoftBank Group and Yahoo Group jointly invested US$60 million to acquire a 35% stake in Facebook and will do their utmost to help the development and expansion of Facebook.
The second item is that SoftBank Group and Lightning Group established a joint venture to fully acquire Android Corporation for US$68 million, of which Lightning Group holds a 56% stake.
Item 3: Under the lobbying and manipulation of SoftBank Group, Lightning Group invested US$150 million and became one of the shareholders of British ARM.
Item 4: Lightning Group invested $200 million, Yahoo Group invested $500 million, and Softbank Group invested $300 million, a total of $1 billion, plus the entire Yahoo China, in exchange for 42% of Alibaba's shares.
Without a doubt, this is the largest investment in the history of China's Internet.
And it is not a single investment, but a cross-investment and strategic bundling.
To be more precise, it is a four-party alliance consisting of Lightning Group, Alibaba Group, Yahoo Group, and SoftBank Group.
This time, the big alliance and large-scale cross-investment almost exhausted all the cash of Lightning Group.
Even the cash that SoftBank Group invested in Lightning Entertainment is included.
Several groups mobilized more than one hundred people and the negotiations lasted for more than fifty days, and finally the matter was settled.
All that was left was to sign.
Once signed, an extremely large capital group will be formed.
The foundation for the next few years will be completely solid.
Moreover, Lightning Group's overseas expansion strategy will be truly and completely formed.
The news had already spread before the contract was signed.
Suddenly, it was not the entire Internet industry that was shocked, but the entire capital industry and even the entire public opinion.
Damn it!
What a huge deal.
Even though the acquisition of Android and the acquisition of ARM were kept secret, they were not disclosed. However, the remaining several giant collaborations were also extremely shocking.
"Can anyone tell me how much money is involved here?"
"How much is the total amount of all these transactions?"
"Damn, once this deal is finalized, will a giant group emerge?"
"For a transaction of this magnitude, it would even require the consent of the country and approval from the Ministry of Commerce."
Suddenly, countless public opinions were in an uproar.
A real fire-breathing fuel.
………………………………
Li Zhongtian has matured a lot.
Now he is basically able to stand on his own feet, and he will graduate in a year, so he has been spending most of his time in Lightning Group.
He has about a dozen people under him, whose ranks are not high, but they are very important. He is one of the core members of Facebook's advertising model.
Now he is no longer such a bumpkin.
Perhaps it was because of the training he received from Senior Sister Zhang Yin, or perhaps it was because of his continuous achievements at work, his charm gradually emerged.
Now he is considered a small celebrity in Tongji University.
However, he still did not break up with Senior Sister Zhang Yin, even though she had been abroad for a long time.
Lin Xiao asked him why he didn't break up. He said, I don't want to kill my love with my own hands. Even if we break up, we should let the other party bring it up.
Lin Xiao didn't expect that Li Zhongtian, this country dog, could say such thought-provoking words.
I can't kill my love with my own hands.
Midnight tonight!
Li Zhongtian was busy until midnight and then opened his email.
After Senior Sister Zhang Yin went abroad, the two sides had a lot of communication at the beginning and chatted on MSN.
In addition, Zhang Yin also shares her life in the United States and includes many photos.
Occasionally, we would say sweet words.
But gradually, this kind of sharing became less and less, and the intervals between them became longer and longer.
Now, a whole month has passed and she hasn't sent me any messages or photos.
Today, he was just reading new emails as usual.
result……
I received an email from Senior Sister Zhang Yin. It was a long text of about three thousand words.
And the final core is only three points.
First, she doesn’t want to go back to China. She enjoys everything in the United States.
The second point is that there is a German male writer who is pursuing her madly, but she has not yet agreed.
Third, I don’t want to keep you from getting what you want, so let’s break up.
Before, Li Zhongtian couldn't understand this email, or rather, he couldn't see through the emotions behind this email.
And now, he saw it.
Senior Sister Zhang Yin is mature and has a sense of morality. However, her memories from childhood to adulthood are not very good. Because she was also born in the countryside, after she came to Shanghai, although she was very outstanding, she felt that she was not as charming as the girls in the city. So in her first relationship, she was in a humble position. So in the second relationship, she agreed to Li Zhongtian's pursuit, wanting to find this strong position and seek a sense of security.
After going to the United States, she felt that she could finally be on par with the urban girls in Shanghai in another way, and even more attractive. This was a kind of dimensionality reduction attack on her region. Because in many people's minds, the United States is more advanced.
This is probably equivalent to a domestic female star who, after a failed relationship with a higher-level domestic male star, may choose to marry a foreign man, especially a white man, in order to make up for her inner pain.
Lin Xiao has always told Li Zhongtian to bravely pursue what he likes, rather than pursuing what he can get, and not to blindly pursue a sense of security in a relationship.
For Senior Sister Zhang Yin, choosing Li Zhongtian is a way of seeking a sense of security and choosing a relationship that she can control.
Now that she has gone abroad, she wants to reaffirm her sexual appeal and seek a love that is equal to hers.
None of this was mentioned in the email sent by Zhang Yin. On the contrary, her email seemed very sincere and full of guilt.
However, Li Zhongtian fully understood her deep emotions behind this email.
Besides, he was already very calm.
He replied with two words: OK! Then, he sent a text message to Lin Xiao: Senior Sister Zhang Yin and I have truly broken up. She was the one who proposed it.
"Only the one who doesn't love can kill love with his own hands."
"So Lin Xiao, you must not do that. As long as you didn't do it yourself, there is still room for redemption."
When Lin Xiao received this text message, he couldn't help but sigh. He never thought that it would be this country dog's turn to teach him how to fall in love.
……………………
April 19! At this time, the entire network's public opinion was still about this century's big deal.
Not only on the Internet, but also experts and professors from major TV stations are happy to analyze this epic four-party deal.
It also emphasized that this will reshape the domestic Internet industry landscape, etc.
However, the Lightning Group, which was at the center of public opinion, did not give any response.
It was like the eye of a typhoon, the center of a storm, eerily quiet.
At twelve o'clock noon on the 19th, a shocking news broke!
The amazing teacher-student romance between Ergou and his wife! Ergou is suspected to be married, and his wife is actually his former high school English teacher.
When Ergou was in high school, he had already officially established a romantic relationship with his English teacher.
Along with the news, there was also a photo.
It is a photo of Lin Xiao wearing a suit and Xiao Momo wearing a wedding dress.
Anyone who sees this wedding photo will sigh deeply.
The golden boy and the jade girl, made for each other.
……………………
After this news broke.
It immediately caused an uproar! Although, the teacher-student romance here was a bit eye-catching.
But...it's more of envy.
It is said that Leader Ergou is awesome and has fulfilled the dreams of so many men.
There are not many attacks, but instead there are quite a few blessings.
Countless men and women envy this love.
……………………
But just a few hours later, another piece of news broke.
The leader of the Ergou sect is two-timing. On one hand, he is engaged to his girlfriend, who is an English teacher, while on the other hand, he is cheating on his girlfriend with a school beauty.
Not only is she the school belle of Linshan No. 1 Middle School, but also the school belle of Aurora University, Lian Yi!
There are also many photos that were exposed together.
But these photos are not that clear, and many of them were taken secretly.
The photo of Lin Xiao and Lian Yi together looks somewhat intimate.
Suddenly, public opinion exploded! The entire Internet was like a tsunami.
………………
Just one hour later, the third piece of news broke out again, which was even more shocking.
Lian Yi's father is the second most important person in a certain city in Zhijiang.
Moreover, ever since Master Ergou started his business, he has been responsible for protecting Sang.
The first business venture of Ergou was Itchy.com, which was obviously a bit shady and was also investigated by the higher-ups, but he was able to get through it safely every time because Lian Zheng was there to protect him.
Not only that, Lian Zheng also processed several loans for Ergou Sect Leader, with the total amount reaching several hundred million.
Is there any illegal transaction here? Is this a collusion between capital and power? The funny thing is that the leader of Ergou always says that he is a grassroots person and has no identity background. What is Lian Zheng? The most important thing is that the leader of Ergou clearly has a fiancée, but he still deceives Lian Yi and Lian Zheng, seeking Lian Zheng's support and help in politics and capital.
Cheating, two-timing, deceiving in relationships, and obtaining loans by fraud.
Is such a person still qualified to be an idol? A role model?
How can such a person with corrupt morals and who engages in power-for-money transactions be worshipped by so many people? I implore the relevant departments to immediately open a case against the Lightning Group and Lin Xiao.
If there is abuse of power for personal gain or trading power for money, it must not be tolerated.
………………………………
A real comet hit the Earth.
It set off a huge wave!
Lin Xiao left the company and took a car back home.
Get out of the car, open the door, and enter the house as usual.
Paopao sat quietly on the sofa, with Lin Yao and Bai Xiaoping on either side of her.
No sound.
Seeing Lin Xiao coming back, Lin Yao and Bai Xiaoping left quietly. They had been with Xiao Momo for a whole day.
"She didn't say a word the whole day today." Lin Yao said quickly as he went out.
Bai Xiaoping: "Boss, come on!"
Lin Xiao didn't say anything, but put on an apron, went into the kitchen and started cooking.
His cooking skills are good.
Made three dishes.
One steamed yellow croaker, one steamed meat with pickled mustard greens, and one stir-fried sweet potato leaves.
The three dishes were ready in just over half an hour, because the steamed meat with pickled mustard greens had been steamed for seven or eight hours.
After finishing the meal, he untied his apron and placed the three dishes on the table.
Then, take out a bottle of red wine.
He poured half a cup for himself and half a cup for Xiao Momo.
"Try it. Don't you like steamed pork with pickled mustard greens?" Lin Xiao said, "This pickled mustard greens is freshly dried by my parents in the winter. It's fragrant and sour. The pork is also local pork raised with grain in the village. It's delicious."
"The villagers made a mistake when they steamed the meat, which is to steam it directly. That way, there will be more soup and the meat will become more and more dry. They should cover it with a layer of plastic wrap first, then poke a few holes before steaming it."
"The dried plum meat steamed in this way is tender and fragrant."
Then, Lin Xiao picked up a piece of meat and put it in Bubble's bowl.
Bubble picked up the chopsticks and wanted to pick it up and put it in her mouth, but her hands were shaking and she couldn't pick it up.
Lin Xiao went to get her a spoon.
But she didn't use it, and used her other hand to hold down her right hand. She had always been very soft, and she would do whatever Lin Xiao said. But this time, she was very stubborn and wanted to use chopsticks.
It took her a while until her hands stopped shaking so much, and then she picked up the piece of pickled mustard greens and meat and put it into her little mouth.
It really melts in your mouth.
"And these sweet potato leaves. I didn't fry them with lard, but with the oil squeezed out from fresh local pork. They are very fragrant and delicious." Lin Xiao picked up another piece of sweet potato leaves for her. His movements were gentle and his voice was even gentler.
Put the bubbles back into your mouth.
Then, the scene became quiet again.
Bubble just kept eating like that, but when Lin Xiao drank, she just left the red wine in front of her without touching it.
In this way, the two of them finished almost all the three dishes on the table.
"Today, I had good news to tell you." Bubble finally spoke.
Lin Xiao asked: "What?"
Bubble: "I have a baby."
The wine glass in Lin Xiao's hand froze in mid-air, then he put it back on the table, and was immediately filled with surprise.
"Mom and Dad will be so happy."
"I don't know how many people will love this baby as soon as he is born."
Bubble couldn't help but put her hand over her belly, even though she wasn't showing any signs of pregnancy at that moment.
"I went to the hospital for a checkup secretly. The doctor said the baby was very, very healthy and all indicators were very good."
Lin Xiao came to Paopao and squatted down beside her.
Bubble continued, "Originally, I had already thought of how to write the script for 'The Curious Case of Benjamin Button', but after I had a baby, I didn't want to write that script anymore."
Then, both sides fell into silence again.
Lin Xiao leaned against Xiao Momo's belly and said in a gentle voice, "Baby, grow up quickly. When you grow up, beat up your dad and avenge your mom, okay?"
After these words came out, Bubble couldn't hold it in any longer.
Tears welled up in my eyes.
Crying so hard that I was out of breath.
After crying, she wiped away her tears.
He said hoarsely to Lin Xiao: "Let's make... love!"
……………………
Note: I am starting to conquer the perfect copy of a family of three. Please give me a monthly ticket. Thank you! (End of this chapter)
