Chapter 162 Meeting an Old Friend

"This is the first time I've seen you from this angle."

"I am very familiar with you. No, I was more familiar with myself before, but now when I see you, I always feel like we have known each other for a long time."

Tang Yuan had seen Wen Jiaqi on his phone before, and seeing her in person this time felt different.

She stepped forward and gave him a hug.

"I can feel you, but I can't communicate with you," Wen Jiaqi let go of her hand and looked at her seriously, "You look a lot like her, but I can see that you two are different."

The "she" that Wen Jiaqi mentioned refers to "Tang Yuan".

"Of course, we are different people. Even if we have some similarities in personality, we are not the same person," Tang Yuan smiled. "Where are we going next? I'll follow your arrangements."

"I'll take you to meet some friends." Wen Jiaqi invited Tang Yuan to get in the car.

Tang Yuan nodded, without asking who the friend was, and took her hand and got into the car.

She didn't know much about the situation in Shenzhen. She had never been here before she traveled through time. In the first few days after she came back, she thought about coming here to take a look, but before she came back, she encountered the system again.

The Shenzhen Stock Exchange today is very different from that of decades ago. For her who came back suddenly, the visual impact would be even greater.

She had known for a long time that the Shenzhen Stock Exchange would be like this now, but not long ago, she still saw the Shenzhen Stock Exchange as a place in ruins waiting to be revived.

The car drove forward and she looked at the scenery outside the window until she came to a familiar road.

"Is that a clothing factory?"

"Yes, that's our clothing factory. This is the head office. Later we opened several branches all over the country. However, online shopping has developed too fast in recent years, and the business in the factory has declined a bit." Wen Jiaqi said with regret.

She hoped that Tang Yuan could see the most perfect moment.

Ever since she woke up, she knew that Tang Yuan would come back one day. Since then, she has been working hard to develop the clothing factory's business and make it better and better.

It's just that sometimes her efforts cannot resist the impact of the external environment.

Tang Yuan was about to comfort her after hearing this, but he saw trucks driving out of the factory one after another. The quantity of these goods alone was not small.

At this moment, a saying came to her mind: A skinny camel is bigger than a horse.

It was just like the system told her not long ago that the beverage factory's business had declined slightly, but the dividends she received every year were still several tens of millions.

This clothing factory originally came from her, but she did not follow up on its subsequent development, resulting in her still having a small business mindset in her bones.

"I never dreamed that my business could grow so big. This is already great," Tang Yuan said from the bottom of his heart. "You are really amazing. If it were me, I might not be able to do as well as you do."

"You are always humble. If it weren't for the foundation you laid, this clothing factory wouldn't be doing so well." The car stopped and Wen Jiaqi got out first to wait for Tang Yuan.

Tang Yuan also got out of the car quickly.

There was still some politeness between the two of them.

"You really don't want to think about it again?"

"Um?"

Wen Jiaqi held her hand and said, "Consider it. I will transfer this clothing group to your name, and then I will work for you, and you just need to pay me a salary every month."

"Isn't it better for you to take care of it yourself?" Tang Yuan replied with a smile.

"But it's yours. From the moment I took it over, I felt it belonged to you. After all, you created it," Wen Jiaqi took her around the garment factory. "I didn't change the main structure. It's still the same. The subsequent renovations were all based on the original. They all said I was nostalgic, but the truth is that I didn't want to erase your existence."

"You are the one who expanded the latter part," Tang Yuan said, looking at the main part of the clothing factory. "In fact, I have not been here for a long time. If we talk about familiarity, you are more familiar with it than me."

She had come several times when the clothing factory was first established, but Zheng Man was the person in charge. Later, when she came back, Zheng Man and Wen Jiaqi were the ones in charge.

If she really had to talk about familiarity, what she was most familiar with were actually those warehouses.

She loves the feeling of moving goods.

But looking at the clothing factory in front of her, she slowly felt a sense of familiarity.

“Was it later expanded according to the design?”

"Well, I didn't touch the design," Wen Jiaqi was suddenly happy, "Luckily, there are things here that you are familiar with, but you don't want the clothing factory, so you must accept the gift when I come back."

Tang Yuan nodded: "Okay."

The matter of the gift had already been discussed before she came here. She had promised Tang Gong and Xiao Mei, so naturally she had to promise Wen Jiaqi as well.

After visiting the clothing factory, Wen Jiaqi took her to a nearby high-rise building.

As soon as she stepped out of the elevator, she received a call: "We are already here, you can have fun, you are welcome."

After hanging up the phone, Wen Jiaqi took Tang Yuan into the house and said, "The 21st, 22nd and 23rd floors of this building are one unit. They are playing mahjong inside."

Tang Yuan just heard the sound of mahjong tiles colliding.

The two entered the house and soon arrived outside the mahjong room. Wen Jiaqi pushed open the door and the sounds of mahjong gradually became clearer.

"Did you bring a little sister to play?" The person inside raised his head and asked in Cantonese with a smile.

Tang Yuan recognized her at a glance.

It was not someone else, but her good friend in Hong Kong, Xue Shiqi.

But now she has gotten rid of her previous confusion, and even playing mahjong is very handy.

Besides her, the other three were also acquaintances, Zheng Fu, Zheng Man and Liang Meiyi.

"Jiaqi, whose youngster is this?"

"She is my friend and will be the owner of this building in the future," Wen Jiaqi said with a smile, "I brought her here for you to get acquainted with. If you want to play mahjong in the future, you have to make an appointment with her."

"Um?"

The sound of mahjong stopped and the four people sitting at the mahjong table raised their heads.

"Owner?"

"What master?"

"I said I would give you a gift," Wen Jiaqi pulled Tang Yuan, "I don't know what else I can give you, so I'll give you this building. It was originally built with the profits from the clothing factory. I think you will like it if I give it to you."

As she spoke, she looked at the four people at the mahjong table and said, "Yes, Tang Yuan will be the owner of this building from now on."

"Is he my landlord too?" Zheng Man asked, looking at Tang Yuan with a smile on her face. "Nice to meet you."

"Zheng Man's house was given to her," Wen Jiaqi explained. "So, this building is missing a room. Why not move to another building?"

"Why? Am I that bad?" Zheng Man couldn't help but ask.

"It's not that you're not good enough, it's that you're not perfect enough," Wen Jiaqi looked at Tang Yuan, "What do you think?"

"Actually... you don't have to." Tang Yuan thought that Wen Jiaqi's gift was a house, but it turned out to be a building. "If you really want to give me one, just one room will be fine. I can come over and play when I'm free."

"Are you just coming here to play when you are free?" Wen Jiaqi frowned. "I thought you were going to settle here. Haven't you always liked this place, and Hong Kong..."

Tang Yuan wondered when she had such an idea, but then she thought that Wen Jiaqi should know what she had done when she controlled her body before, and she roughly understood it.

She insisted on buying a house because she thought the house prices in Hong Kong would increase. At that time, she thought that even if she achieved nothing, having a house in Hong Kong would allow her to have no worries about food and clothing.

But if I were to say that I like Hong Kong very much, that’s not the case.

"Xiaoyuan will settle in Yun Province in the future. Shenzhen is not suitable for living."

The voice came from the system phone. It was Xiaomei.

"The Northeast is also OK. The cultural environment in the Northeast is good. In comparison, Shenzhen and Hong Kong are too cold."

This is "Tang Garden".

Wen Jiaqi suddenly raised her eyes and looked at the system.

The system put the phone on his chest: "I can take Xiaoyuan around the world, she won't like staying here."

"Xiaoyuan likes to make clothes."

"She doesn't like it. You don't understand. She likes the joy of making money. She doesn't like trivial things like making clothes." The system said firmly.

"I can also let Xiaoyuan enjoy the joy of making money, the clothing factory..."

"I don't want it." Tang Yuan replied immediately.

Wen Jiaqi lowered her head: "You don't like to be with me. We are not too familiar with each other, right? But I am familiar with you. I have always remembered you."

"You are not in her memory." The system answered.

"Yes, she remembers me. She has fragments of my memory." Wen Jiaqi said immediately.

The system is speechless.

Tang Yuan sighed helplessly and looked at the four people who were still sitting at the mahjong table not far away. At this moment, each of them had a cup in their hands, drinking tea and watching a play.

The system talked to Wen Jiaqi and didn't seem to want to hide anything.

"I didn't plan to give up everything, but things were moving so fast that I couldn't think too much," Tang Yuan said helplessly, "I'll live here, I'll live anywhere, and I just resigned, so I can go anywhere."

"Come to Yun Province, Xiaoyuan. I think you must be eager to see how everyone is doing," Xiaomei said. "The conditions in the town are very good now. The children can go to school. By the way, there are several large tea and coffee plantations in the town. You have never seen them. It's a good opportunity for you to come and see them."

When Xiaomei was talking about tea and coffee, Zheng Man, who was drinking tea in the mahjong room, raised her head and looked at Tang Yuan who had a helpless look on his face.

Then, he looked at Wen Jiaqi.

She pursed her lips and called out "Jia Qi" in Cantonese.

As soon as the voice came out, Wen Jiaqi and Tang Yuan turned their heads at the same time.

After Tang Yuan turned around, she remembered that her name was not Wen Jiaqi now.

Zheng Man stood up from the chair.

For many years, she had been thinking about one thing: Can a person's personality really change so much? Wen Jiaqi was still Wen Jiaqi, but she always felt that the Wen Jiaqi who appeared in front of her had changed.

She didn't dare to believe it, nor did she dare to ask, but just kept it in her heart.

Until this moment, she suddenly felt that everything made sense.

Deep in her heart, she always remembered the little girl who was so timid but still mustered up the courage to shoot in such a dangerous situation.

She saved her life, and she will never forget it.

…

Tang Yuan looked at Zheng Man, whose eyes were full of disbelief. He hesitated for a moment, and finally met her gaze.

He smiled at her.
