In the afternoon, the meeting finally ended. Soon, Cai Weiye was surrounded by people. Chen Xu looked at this scene and laughed in his heart. This is the trouble after becoming famous.

Of course, in the minds of many people, this is a blessing they have been longing for. Just like Cai Weiye now, he seems to be enjoying it.

"Mr. Chen."

Someone also came to see him. He was one of the CEOs of several battery companies. He looked to be in his fifties, thin, and had a warm smile.

Chen Xu stepped forward and shook hands with him, "Mr. Gao."

Mr. Gao said, "Mr. Chen, are you free tonight? I have a private banquet and would like to invite you to it."

"I'm so sorry, I have work tonight. Let's do it next time." Chen Xu declined.

"Oh, that's fine." Mr. Gao said, and left.

After leaving the meeting hall, Secretary Wen reminded quietly, "Mr. Gao didn't seem very happy just now."

"Really?" Chen Xu didn't care much.

Banquets like this were all about eating, drinking and bragging, and he really didn't like that and didn't want to waste his time on such interpersonal interactions.

As for whether such a rejection would embarrass others, he didn't care.

Secretary Wen only mentioned it once and didn't say anything more.

After getting in the car, Chen Xu said, "By the way, you can come to tomorrow's meeting for me. I won't come. If there is anything, just call me."

"Okay, Mr. Chen." Secretary Wen had been with him for a while and knew that he was impatient to deal with such trivial matters. "Do you need someone to accompany you?"

"No, I'm just strolling around."

This time he only brought Secretary Wen, Cai Weiye and his assistant, and there were no other staff. It was not difficult to find someone. It was easy to transfer someone from the battery company, or he could find Yang Jinxia, ​​who had staff here.

However, he felt that this was just a small matter and there was no need to make such a fuss about it.

…………

At night, Chen Xu entered into a dream again, and he also experienced some fun in the game "Second Life".

In reality, there are always various restrictions. Even if you reach a very high level, you can't do whatever you want. Not only in terms of law, but also in terms of morality.

Only in the game can he do some extraordinary things, such as killing monsters openly and even PK with others. Don't mention it, it's quite addictive.

This year, he and Mu Shang successfully completed the preliminary tasks and became extraordinary people.

The game is almost 100% virtual reality, and mastering extraordinary powers makes it feel even more exciting. It's like realizing a childhood dream.

Only after becoming a transcendent person can one truly cross a threshold and possess the ability to earn credit points.

During this year, he also brought Yang Jinxia in. How could he play games without his wife? He had already discussed with them that they would enter the game every three days, and the three of them would take turns entering, without leaving anyone out.

There was nothing much to say about the in-game stuff, it was nothing more than leveling up, killing monsters, completing quests, and participating in some competitions. The best result was the 1,093rd place in the second shooting competition. It also marked my place on the shooting rankings.

As for Yang Jinxia, ​​she didn't need to level up from the Novice Village. She could just follow him, form a team, get some experience, and level up quickly.

…………

The next day, Chen Xu wandered around the capital alone.

He didn't drive, but hailed a taxi online. It was quite interesting to listen to the driver talking in Beijing dialect.

He actually doesn't like to go to scenic spots, mainly because there are too many people and you have to queue everywhere, which is too troublesome. This time, he just took a quick look and didn't even go into the Forbidden City. He just walked around outside for a while and took some photos.

"uncle."

Chen Xu was looking through the photos he had just taken when someone suddenly patted him from behind. He turned around and saw two little girls, both wearing thick down jackets, with red noses from the cold. "Can you take a few photos for us?"

"Okay." Chen Xu took the phone.

He didn't care what they called him. He was almost 30 years old, so it was normal to be called uncle. He usually wore suits now, which made him look older.

After they posed, he took several photos in a row, handed the phone back to them, and said, "Look, how good the photos are."

"Thank you, uncle." The two girls looked through the photos together.

Chen Xu saw that they were in their early twenties and their accents didn't sound like they were from Beijing, so he asked casually, "Are you here for tourism?"

"Yes, I came here with my parents." One of the girls answered, "I heard that there aren't so many people here in the winter."

Chen Xu looked at the people in the square. It wasn't a huge crowd, but it was definitely not a small number either.

The girl said, "I didn't expect there would be so many people here in the winter."

"Yeah." Chen Xu chatted with them for a few words and then went to other places to hang out. It was obvious that although the two girls took the initiative to talk to him, they still maintained a certain degree of caution.

It is a good thing for girls to be cautious when they go out.

It was almost noon, and Chen Xu was hungry. He happened to pass by a hot pot restaurant and walked in. He was tired of the dishes at the banquet recently and wanted to change his taste. As soon as he entered the door, the waiter asked him if he had a reservation, and it turned out that the restaurant was full.

Just as he was thinking of going to another house, he saw the two girls sitting inside. They waved at him, indicating that there were seats over there.

He hesitated for a moment before walking over and said with a smile, "What a coincidence."

"Uncle, you are not following us, are you?" One of the girls said, laughing like a silver bell. Of the two girls, she was more outgoing and generous, while the other was more gentle and shy.

Chen Xu smiled and said, "Then why did you invite me over?"

This was a table with four seats. He sat across from them, picked up the menu, and asked, "Have you ordered yet?"

"I've ordered it." The cheerful girl looked at him and said, "From your accent, you don't sound like a Beijinger."

"Well, I'm here on a business trip." Chen Xu said as he flipped through the menu.

This hot pot restaurant has small pots for single people, so they can eat their own food without affecting each other. He saw this and came to sit at the same table with them.

The girl asked, "Where are you from?"

After Chen Xu said that, they all got excited and said, "We too."

It turned out that we were from the same hometown. With this relationship, the feeling of strangeness disappeared a lot.

Chen Xu asked, "You are college students, right?"

"Well, we are still sophomores in college and we took a special leave to come here." The shy girl replied.

At this time, there was a sudden noise at the table next to them. The three looked over and saw a man pointing at a couple at that table and cursing them. The woman explained a few words.

The man became even more excited. He suddenly walked over, grabbed the hot pot on the table, and poured the hot soup on the man sitting at the table.
