Jiang Xiaoli took the keys. "I'll see you off."
Zong Jia went to the kitchen and brought out the trash. "I'll take out the trash with you. It's getting a bit late."
Zhong Yuan, who usually wants to play on the computer after meals, was unusually quiet today. He said, "I'll keep you two company. The three of us can chat on the way back."
Jiang Xiaoli pursed her lips, trying to suppress her laughter, "Okay, Brother Yuan, let's go together."
The early autumn night breeze felt very comfortable. The three of them escorted Jiang Xiaoli's three roommates back to school before leaving.
After watching Chang Yue and the other two disappear from sight, the two of them walked on either side of Zhong Yuan.
Jiang Xiaoli snapped her fingers in front of Zhong Yuan's eyes. "Brother Yuan, don't you have anything to say to us?"
Zhong Yuan dodged the question, saying, "Little Pear, what are you talking about? Let's hurry home."
After saying that, he quickened his pace and walked ahead of the two of them.
Zong Jia strode forward and grabbed Zhong Yuan by the back of the neck, "Why are you acting so guilty about what Xiao Lizi said?"
Zhong Yuan looked at the two of them and gave up.
He raised a flag in surrender, saying, "You two have sharp eyes, don't you! I think I did a pretty good job of hiding it!"
Jiang Xiaoli burst out laughing, "Brother Yuan, if you were an actor or director, you'd be scolding me every day. You're making it so obvious, anyone who knows you can tell something's wrong with you right away!"
Zong Jia asked with a smile, "Da Yuan, are you interested in Xiao Lizi's roommate?"
Seeing that he couldn't smooth things over, Zhong Yuan decided to just go all out and said, "Fine, fine, I'll tell you two. When I walked into the room this afternoon, I felt that Hu Jingxin was a very kind girl, as if I had seen her somewhere before."
But I knew very well that I had never met them before, and when I was chatting with them, I thought, "This girl is so cute."
Little Pear, I'm really not the kind of person who falls for every girl I meet, but today I really felt a flutter in my heart.
Jiang Xiaoli nodded, "That's normal. Xin Xin is great. Although she's a little bit naive, she's definitely lovable. However..."
Zhong Yuan, hearing this, became impatient. "But what? Little Pear, just tell me already, stop keeping me in suspense!"
She smiled and said, "But if you want to pursue Xin Xin, you'll have to work hard. Her father is the owner of Shencheng Xingyun Daily Chemicals, and Xin Xin is her parents' only daughter."
You may not know her company, but you've definitely heard of or even used its products, such as "Star Soft Shampoo" and "Star Clean Toothpaste." In the past two years, "Star Charm Cosmetics" launched the skincare line "Star Beauty," which has also sold very well.
“This…” Zhong Yuan was dumbfounded. “I actually know some of the ones you just mentioned, and I’ve even used some of them.”
The light in his eyes dimmed instantly. "Sigh..."
Zong Jia couldn't stand seeing him like this, so he reached out and slapped him on the head.
"You're scared just because you know that girl's family owns a big company and is well-off?"
Zhong Yuan looked conflicted. "She's so eligible, yet she wouldn't even look at someone like me."
Jiang Xiaoli was not in a position to express her opinion, but Zong Jiayu said with exasperation, "You haven't even tried and you already think you can't do it? When did you become so spineless? If you think you can't do it, why don't you try harder to become better?"
Zhong Yuan muttered under his breath, "Can I really build a company bigger than other people's fathers through my own efforts?"
Zong Jia wanted to punch him again, but Jiang Xiaoli stopped him, "Brother Yuan, anything is possible. There's an old saying that fortune turns around. How do you know you can't do it in the future? Aren't you negating all of us?"
She wasn't trying to motivate Zhong Yuan. In her memory, "Xingyun Daily Chemicals" gradually disappeared after 2010. She didn't know the specific reasons, but it certainly wasn't as glorious as Zhong Yuan imagined.
Apart from industries and companies with technological monopolies, other industries and companies will face this problem. If they do not transform and do not engage in research and development, they will not go far by relying on their past achievements. "Xingyun Daily Chemicals", which currently occupies a large market share, is very likely to be in this situation.
Zhong Yuan was a little confused by her words, "Little Pear, are you that confident?"
Jiang Xiaoli nodded firmly, "Of course, I believe in myself, and I believe in you all. With all industries developing so rapidly, you can't even imagine what you'll achieve in the future. How can you deny yourself before you've even done anything?"
Zhong Yuan was silent for a moment, then suddenly clenched his fist.
"Little Pear, you're right! I never thought I could earn so much money, and I never thought I could come to Kyoto with Brother Zong. I shouldn't doubt myself!"
Zong Jia's expression finally softened. "It's good that you've figured it out."
Zhong Yuan grinned, "But Little Pear, I'm not going to pursue Hu Jingxin for now. The gap between us is still too big. I'll try my best to close the gap. If there's still a chance when I succeed, you have to help me!"
Hearing him say that, Jiang Xiaoli couldn't help but smile. "Brother Yuan, don't worry, we're family. I'll definitely help you."
This little incident passed quickly, and Zhong Yuan started discussing with Zong Jiayu about negotiating with the advertising client the next day, full of enthusiasm.
Zong Jia looked at his girlfriend helplessly. He was so frustrated. He finally got to spend some time alone with his girlfriend after a whole day, and he had to be the third wheel.
Jiang Xiaoli laughed so hard she bent over when she saw his expression.
Your own brother, you should take care of him!
Hu Jingxin and the other two returned to their dormitory, and Sun Weiwei looked behind them.
"Isn't Jiang Xiaoli going back to the dorm today? The student union will be checking the dorms anytime these days. What are we going to do if our dorm gets points deducted because of her?"
Ren Zhiyi smiled and put down the snacks that Li Guizhi had given them. "It's okay, Xiaoli knows what she's doing."
Before Sun Weiwei could say anything more, the three of them decisively took their washbasins to the water room to wash up.
Hu Jingxin frowned. "Zhiyi, what exactly does she mean? And why won't Xiaoli tell us that her application to commute to school has been approved?"
Chang Yue patted her shoulder, "Don't think too much about it. Xiao Li and Zhi Yi are both cunning enough to outmaneuver them. Let's just watch the show."
Ren Zhiyi laughed out loud after hearing her words, "Xiaoyue, is it really as exaggerated as you say?"
Chang Yue shrugged. "The situation in our dorm is really complicated right now. I'm too lazy to think about all the twists and turns. You and Xiao Li know what's going on. Just let me know if you need my help."
Hu Jingxin also raised her hand in agreement, "Zhiyi, I'm just like Xiaoyue! Please feel free to ask if you need anything."
Ren Zhiyi was amused by the two of them, "It's not as complicated as you think. Once we figure out their purpose, it will be easy to solve. I don't think it will take long."
