After finishing their hot pot meal, Wang Kai left with the pink-haired girl. Because they had been drinking, they left their car in front of the hot pot restaurant.
"Lin Chen, let's meet up again next time. I like having meals with people like you who are good at studying. You all like to speak the truth, unlike those who aren't good at studying, who actually said that I make money because of my dad. They're obviously just jealous of me."
"That's right, Young Master Wang, I'm happy to have dinner with you and listen to you brag... uh, listen to you talk about your glorious deeds. When you become successful in the future, I can go out and brag to people."
"Haha, good brother."
Lin Chen and his two companions hailed a taxi and left, while Young Master Wang thought there was still another round to come.
"Brother Chen, why didn't you tell Wang Kai that Huasuan.com was your business?"
"What's there to say? You should keep a low profile, Fatty."
An Rou sneered and directly exposed him: "He said he's the owner of Huasuan.com, so how is he going to mooch off that Wang Dakai's meals in the future?"
"Ahem, senior, don't rub salt in the wound."
"Call me 'sister'."
"Hey, you're really getting cocky, aren't you? See if I don't deduct your salary."
"If you dare to deduct my salary, I'll tell Mom."
"You! You're ruthless!"
After returning home, Lin Chen turned on his computer and began integrating the scan function into MIUI. At the same time, he sent this idea to Lei Jun.
A short while later, Lei Jun called.
"Brother, your idea is brilliant! It's like pioneering a whole new path!"
"Brother Jun, I thought you were asleep. Haha, I just suddenly thought of it when I went out for a late-night snack. I'm planning to develop it into our mobile phone system."
Speaking of this, Lin Chen suddenly thought, why not develop a certain messaging app first? He remembered that in his previous life, Xiaomi had developed MiTalk, which was later defeated by a certain messaging app, but that was because it lacked a user base. But now he had Huasuan.com. If he could convert Huasuan.com's user base, wouldn't that solve the problem?
"Brother Lin, Brother Lin, eh? Is the signal bad?" Lei Jun thought it was his own cell phone signal that was bad because Lin Chen hadn't spoken for a while.
Lin Chen snapped out of his daze and excitedly said, "Brother Jun, I want to make a mobile chat app that can send text, photos, videos, and voice messages. Are you confident that you can join me in challenging Tencent?"
Lei Jun also got excited: "Let's do it, we have to do it!"
"Ding! A hidden mission has been detected that the host has triggered it. An additional item will be available in the system shop."
Lin Chen was taken aback. This system actually had hidden missions. He quickly chatted with Lei Jun for a few words and then hung up the phone. He opened the system store and saw a software that Lin Chen was extremely familiar with in his previous life—a certain WeChat.
However, the app is actually called "Mixin" and only requires 1 single coin to redeem.
"Could this be a reward from a hidden quest? It only costs 1 Single Coin."
Clicking "redeem" sent a flood of code information into Lin Chen's mind. In the dead of winter, within just three seconds, Lin Chen's forehead was covered in sweat.
"Wow... I didn't know WeChat had so much code, it's amazing."
Lin Chen had developed a small chat tool in his previous life, and thought that WeChat should be similar. However, he was surprised to find that the amount of code contained in this small green software was astronomical. Moreover, the version provided by the system was the latest version from his previous life, which already had features such as Moments and QR code scanning.
Lin Chen smiled. This saved him a lot of trouble. He no longer needed to develop the scan function separately. So, Lin Chen wrote out the code for the scan function separately, preparing to make it an independent MIUI feature.
For the next few days, until Lunar New Year's Eve, Lin Chen stayed in his room coding except for eating and going to the toilet. Lin's mother saw that Lin Chen was busy working, so she didn't disturb him. Anyway, she already had a daughter, so this son was dispensable.
Lin Chen: ? ? ?
These past few days, An Rou has been compiling and sending the data from Taobao's New Year's Shopping Festival to Lin Chen every day. Because of Taobao's quirky red envelope giveaway, the data for the New Year's Shopping Festival has been soaring. After all, what can you do with the money that's poured into Alipay? You can only buy things on Taobao.
Finally, on New Year's Eve, Lin Chen was dragged out of front of the computer by his mother.
"Aren't you a billionaire? How come you're not even as good as an ordinary office worker? Your dad gets a holiday for Chinese New Year, but you're still working overtime every day."
"Mom, you should be grateful to have such a hardworking and ambitious son like me."
"Hehe, I have Anrou as my daughter now. My daughter even bought me a down jacket yesterday. Unlike you, you brat."
Lin Chen was speechless. That was the bonus I gave her, okay?
After lunch, Mom and Anrou started preparing for today's New Year's Eve dinner, while Lao Lin was putting up Spring Festival couplets and paper-cut window decorations.
In the evening, the family of four ate their New Year's Eve dinner while watching the Spring Festival Gala.
"Son, you're an adult now, how about we have some wine?"
"Go ahead and get it done."
"Anrou, would you like a drink?"
Before An Rou could speak, Lin Chen quickly said, "No! She can't drink. She gets drunk after just one beer, and this is baijiu. She'll definitely get drunk."
"Haha, it's okay. I'm in a good mood today. What's the big deal if I get drunk at home? I'll just go to sleep."
Hearing Lin Ma say this, An Rou happily squinted her eyes.
Cheers! Happy New Year!
Sure enough, An Rou got dizzy after drinking a small glass of baijiu, and fell asleep on the sofa after finishing her New Year's Eve dinner.
Lin Chen shook his head, carried her back to the guest room, put her on the bed, covered her with the blanket, and was just about to get up to leave when An Rou suddenly sat up, hugged Lin Chen, and kissed him.
Lin Chen's brain instantly went blank. Oh no, System, please let me explain! She took the initiative! I don't know anything! Hmm, is that a little tongue? It seems quite soft.
A minute later, An Rou collapsed again and fell asleep.
Lin Chen was speechless, muttering to himself, "My first kiss, gone just like that, what a huge loss." After tucking An Rou back in, Lin Chen left the room.
An Rou, lying on the bed, blushed as if she had a fever. She closed her eyes tightly and pretended to be asleep. She had just heard Lin Chen talking to himself and almost laughed out loud. "First kiss, huh? Silly boy. I didn't even know I stole a kiss from you in Shenzhen last time. But thank you, Lin Chen. You make me feel at home."
Lin Chen received many New Year's greetings on his phone. Some were sent to Pony Ma and Zhang Wenyi in a group chat, while others were sent privately to Zhang Yong, Liu Qiangdong, and Lei Jun. Lin Chen replied to each one and also wished everyone a Happy New Year in the Xingchen Technology employee group.
Hey everyone, let's go out and have some fun!
In the small group chat of the Shanghai quartet, the young lady is summoning.
"Lin Shuai received, Lin Shuai received, over!"
"Fat Guy received, Fat Guy received, over!"
"Xiao Wan received it, Xiao Wan received it, over!"
