Chapter 916 Everyone's here to back you up
However, her efforts have not been in vain. In just two years, Bai Qingxia has gone from being a junior secretary who learned from her father to officially taking up the position of Chief Technology Officer (CTO) of Baixi, with responsibilities including product research and development and innovation, production technology control, quality and safety management, and so on.
Today, Xia Yiwanmian accounts for about 20% of the domestic instant noodle market share. In the past two years, the brand's growth rate has been outrageous. It currently ranks third in the national instant noodle sales list, with Master Kong in first place and Uni-President in second.
Keep in mind that it has only been on the market for a little over two years.
As the founder of Xia Yiwan Noodles, Bai Qingxia has gained valuable experience over the past two years, making her the most qualified person to serve as the Chief Technology Officer of Baixi.
In the company's power structure where Baek Song-cheol serves as both chairman and CEO, this position is equivalent to the company's third-in-command.
She is gradually moving from being an innocent newcomer to achieving the goal she once set in her heart.
Although he hadn't had many opportunities to date Bai Qingxia in the past two years, Lu Yuanqiu was actually quite content. The little girl from back then was growing up. The girl who struggled against life in the alley, the girl who didn't have the courage to say "let's be together" because of her inferiority complex, was all in the past.
But she still couldn't leave Lu Yuanqiu.
During this time, Lu Yuanqiu lost count of how many times Bai Qingxia had cried to him in video chats. But after asking Xiao Li Feibiao, Lu Yuanqiu learned that Bai Qingxia had not actually been mistreated at the company.
She has grown a lot, but in some ways she seems to have never changed. Just as Lu Yuanqiu said back then, whether she was wronged or happy and excited, she would store the little pearl in her two big eyes for a whole day. She would work normally at the company during the day and release the little pearl when she video chatted with Lu Yuanqiu at night.
For example, just now, last night this girl cried on a video call to Lu Yuanqiu, saying she missed him... Well, she didn't say those three words. Even though they're engaged, she's still stubborn. She still doesn't like to say mushy, affectionate things on her own initiative, but her tear ducts are more honest than her mouth. During last night's video call, she watched Lu Yuanqiu cry the whole time, and the tears never stopped.
Indeed, it has been a month since they last saw each other, which is a relatively long time since they last met. After all, they have been doing internships during their fifth year of university, and they haven't been on campus for almost a year.
The graduation return to school is scheduled for ten days from now.
In the back seat of the Rolls-Royce, Lu Yuanqiu took out his phone and sent a message to Bai Qingxia and Zheng Yifeng, telling them that he had to go back to take care of Lu Yidong's affairs first.
I forgot to mention that since Zheng Yifeng stopped opposing Lao Zheng, his work ability has quickly become apparent in the company. He is currently serving as the company's financial director. However, everyone in the company knows that the chairman intends to make his son his successor, which is probably in the next few years.
Lu Yidong: Where are you? I heard from my roommates that that bastard is already downstairs in the girls' dormitory setting up the scene.
Lu Yuanqiu: One hour left.
Lu Yidong: Be careful... and don't rush.
"You still care about me?" Lu Yuanqiu chuckled softly.
But he really felt sorry for his sister.
Lu Yidong just said on the phone that no one cares about her. Although it was an exaggeration, it wasn't far off. The elders in the family are all busy with their own things. After Lu Yidong went to university, her family basically didn't have time to pay attention to her except for giving her living expenses. Lu Yuanqiu, as her brother, is probably the only one who would take the initiative to reach out to his sister to express his concern.
But this was before he got busy. Recently, juggling both school and company responsibilities, he has rarely contacted his sister.
He even spent more time with his third sister than with his younger sister, so it's no wonder Lu Yidong was resentful. He had finally managed to get along with Bai Qingxia, who had been the "third party" in his relationship, when his own third sister suddenly appeared.
Lu Yidong probably wanted to say something, but felt it was inappropriate, so she never said it. That thing was that she and Lu Yuanqiu were the real blood relatives, while her third sister was a cousin. Why were the two of them so close?
My younger sister is very proud and aloof. Even if she feels wronged, she would never take the initiative to talk to him. This time, she probably had no choice but to call him because he kept pestering her.
Who else could she turn to? Besides her own brother, there was no one else.
Upon arriving at the gate of Lugong University, the Rolls-Royce's emblem on the hood caught the guard's eye, who couldn't help but peek out the window for a few more glances. After being allowed to pass, Lu Yuanqiu glanced at the name of the teaching building his sister had sent him on his phone, rolled down the window, and asked a passing student for directions. After being kindly given directions, he raised his chin and gestured for the driver to start driving.
The student giving directions stared blankly at the car, wondering which CEO was picking up a college student he was keeping. The student looked so young.
The car stopped in front of the corresponding teaching building. Lu Yidong hadn't finished class yet, but he would soon. At that moment, the phone rang. It was Bai Qingxia.
The driver got out of the car first and opened the back door. Lu Yuanqiu got out of the car while answering a phone call. His sophisticated look in a suit attracted the attention of many people walking and passing by the teaching building.
"She's coming too? Why? Did you call her? Oh, okay, Dongdong's get out of class is about to end, I'll send you the girls' dorm room location."
Lu Yuanqiu hung up the phone and copied the message sent by Lu Yidong to Bai Qingxia.
get out of class is over.
Students were already walking out of the first-floor entrance with their textbooks in hand. Although Lu Yuanqiu's appearance wasn't the most handsome, he had regular features, sharp angles, and a tall stature, making him stand out in a crowd. In addition, his current temperament was completely different from before, and with the addition of a suit and a car, he instantly attracted the attention of many female college students.
They looked on curiously, and some of the shy ones only dared to glance at it briefly before hurrying past. After all, they were freshmen and hadn't seen much of the world.
Soon, Lu Yuanqiu saw a familiar girl carrying books walking downstairs with several other girls.
He smiled and curled the corners of his mouth, crossed his arms in front of him, and leaned against the car.
I won't go over there on my own; I'll see if she calls me "brother."
Lu Yidong is 19 years old now. She hasn't changed much compared to two years ago, but she has learned to do makeup and even got her nails done. However, her makeup isn't exaggerated. She is still relatively conservative at heart. At this moment, she is wearing an elegant white dress. At first glance, Lu Yuanqiu really didn't recognize her. But how should I put it? No matter what his sister looks like, her brother can always recognize her.
Upon seeing Lu Yuanqiu, Lu Yidong paused, and her companion beside her whispered in amazement, "Your brother?"
The envious looks from her companions brought a sense of pleasure to Lu Yidong. A slight smile appeared on her originally indifferent face. She nodded gently and replied, "I'll go first."
"Okay, we're coming right away."
Holding her books, Lu Yidong ran towards her brother in public, but the smile that had just appeared on her face was quickly suppressed, and she looked sullen when she arrived in front of Lu Yuanqiu.
Lu Yuanqiu, however, continued to smile and reminded him, "Call out to them, or they might misunderstand."
Lu Yidong glared at him irritably, then looked away and said haughtily and loudly, "Brother!"
Lu Yuanqiu: "Hey!"
The murmurs behind them indeed grew louder, indicating that quite a few people had misunderstood.
The driver opened the back door, and Lu Yidong, her face flushed, quickly climbed in. As Lu Yuanqiu went in, he said, "Who said nobody cares about you? Your brother Feng, your sister-in-law, and your brother Chun will all come over to support you later."
Lu Yidong's face showed surprise, and he asked with a doubtful look in his eyes, "Really?"
Believe it or not.
Lu Yuanqiu responded by saying to the driver, "Drive, let me go and see how big that rich kid's wings are."
Lu Yidong looked out the window on the other side, a smirk playing on his lips.
