Chapter 608: One at home is enough
What Zhang Dening said was absolutely right. This meal was indeed a meal.
Because the people who had dinner with Cheng Xuyuan this time, besides Zhang Dening, were Zou Yanlai and Editor-in-Chief Yang.
Including Fang Yuqing, there were four lesbians in total, so even if Cheng Xuyuan wanted to drink, he couldn't find anyone.
Cheng Xuyuan is an old friend of Zhang Dening and Zou Yanlai.
However, this was the first time Cheng Xuyuan dealt with Editor-in-Chief Yang.
Facing this literary senior, Cheng Xuyuan showed great respect.
However, the focus of the meal soon shifted from Cheng Xuyuan to Fang Yuqing.
When four talented women get together, they naturally have endless things to talk about.
And Cheng Xuyuan, the guest of honor, suddenly became the one who eats.
At this time, he could not get a word in except eating.
Fortunately, the roast duck at Donglaishun is very good. Cheng Xuyuan turned his words into appetite and ate half of the meal.
During this meal, we did not discuss the commissioned article.
It was like a welcoming party for Cheng Xuyuan returning from the United States.
While a few people were chatting, Cheng Xuyuan settled the bill.
His behavior made Zhang Dening, who was in charge of paying the bill, collect the money and said with a smile: "He is a rich man's treat, so let's not be polite."
"Everyone knows now that Cheng Xuyuan is the richest man in our literary world."
"If we don't eat him, who else will we eat?"
After listening to Zhang Dening's reasons, Cheng Xuyuan was speechless, but he could do nothing about it.
After all, he had already paid for the meal.
After waving goodbye to Editor-in-Chief Yang and others, Cheng Xuyuan and Fang Yuqing walked towards Shijingshan.
"What did you guys talk about? You seemed pretty happy at the end?" Cheng Xuyuan asked casually.
Fang Yuqing smiled and said, "It's just some family matters."
"When you went to check out, Editor-in-Chief Yang said that it would be a waste of my talent to be a counselor in a school."
"She suggested that I find an editorial office to practice my skills."
"This will greatly improve my writing skills."
Hearing this suggestion, Cheng Xuyuan curled his lips.
The purpose of letting Fang Yuqing be the editor is self-evident.
Although Fang Yuqing is definitely capable of being an editor, her purpose in saying this is naturally for her own benefit.
Cheng Xuyuan smiled at Fang Yuqing and asked, "What do you think?"
"I said I still prefer to be on campus."
Cheng Xuyuan held Fang Yuqing's hand and smiled, "If you really like being an editor, you can go for it."
Looking at Cheng Xuyuan's smiling face, Fang Yuqing rolled her eyes at him and said, "Having one editor at home is enough. I don't want to be one anymore."
Hearing this, Cheng Xuyuan was stunned.
What does it mean to have one person at home is enough? At home, I am not an editor. Among the people who have a relationship with me, it seems that only Shen Yumo...
We can't dwell on this topic any longer.
Cheng Xuyuan had a flash of thought in his mind, so he smiled and said, "It's up to you."
Fortunately, Fang Yuqing seemed to have said it unintentionally. After saying this, she no longer talked about this topic.
The two of them strolled back to Fang Yuqing's home.
Although the relationship between the two has been recognized by the Fang family, Cheng Xuyuan still cannot stay in Fang Yuqing's home.
After saying hello to Fang Gengsheng, Cheng Xuyuan took Qin Wenhui's ride home.
"Xuyuan, I have a friend who said that there are many ways to make money now. Do you think I should get involved?" Qin Wenhui asked Cheng Xuyuan while driving.
Cheng Xuyuan looked at Qin Wenhui, who had a hint of hesitation in his expression, and said with a smile: "Brother Wenhui, you have to consider this matter yourself."
"If you want to be rich, then let's consider this aspect."
“If you still want to continue your current job and go further, that’s another consideration.”
When Qin Wenhui heard Cheng Xuyuan say this, he immediately looked conflicted.
In fact, he hasn't made up his mind yet.
On the one hand, there is a promising job, and on the other hand, there is making money, which makes him unsure of what to choose.
Cheng Xuyuan did not provide an answer to this question.
He knew that it was difficult to have both, and if Qin Wenhui was reluctant to give up either, it would be of no benefit to him.
It’s better to identify a direction and work hard.
This is better for Qin Wenhui.
After struggling for a while, Qin Wenhui said to Cheng Xuyuan: "Xuyuan, we have always believed in your vision. What do you think?"
"Brother Wenhui, this is about your future."
"So, the final choice is up to you."
"If you really can't make up your mind, you can discuss it with Sister Yuning."
"But I think you should follow your heart."
When Qin Wenhui heard Cheng Xuyuan say this, his expression suddenly became serious.
He did not talk about this issue again, but Cheng Xuyuan knew that Qin Wenhui would not be able to let it go.
After chatting with Qin Wenhui about other things, the car arrived at the Overseas Chinese Apartment.
Because Qin Wenhui often brought Cheng Xuyuan here, the staff of the Overseas Chinese Apartment were already familiar with Qin Wenhui's car, so they did not stop him and let him drive into the yard.
Qin Wenhui looked at the spacious Overseas Chinese Apartment and said with a hint of emotion: "Xuyuan, it's better for you to be rich."
When Cheng Xuyuan heard this and was about to speak, he saw someone running towards him.
When he saw this person, Cheng Xuyuan was stunned.
Because this is a woman.
The light at night was not very bright, so he couldn't see clearly who the woman was for a moment.
Why is there a woman rushing towards me at this time? Inside...
Just when Cheng Xuyuan was surprised, he heard the woman say, "Cheng Xuyuan, why did you come back just now?"
Hearing this voice full of complaints, Cheng Xuyuan looked at the woman carefully, only to find that the woman was Feng Xiaoxia's good friend Wu Xiaoli.
As his relationship with Feng Xiaoxia began to become distant, Cheng Xuyuan felt that his relationship with Wu Xiaoli seemed to be becoming somewhat estranged as well.
Although they could chat like friends when they met, Cheng Xuyuan had a feeling that Wu Xiaoli's attitude towards him was not as good as before.
But this is very normal. I met Wu Xiaoli through Feng Xiaoxia.
Now Feng Xiaoxia and I are like two parallel lines, so Wu Xiaoli, who is Feng Xiaoxia's good friend, will naturally drift away from me.
"Xiao Li, why are you here?"
As he spoke, Cheng Xuyuan said to Qin Wenhui who was in the car and looked surprised: "Brother Wenhui, this is my friend Wu Xiaoli, who is studying at Shuimu University."
"Xiao Li, this is Brother Wenhui, Yuqing's brother-in-law."
Although Wu Xiaoli was very anxious at the moment, she still greeted Qin Wenhui after hearing Cheng Xuyuan's introduction.
Qin Wenhui also calmed down at this time.
When Wu Xiaoli rushed over just now, all kinds of thoughts arose in his mind, and he even wondered if Cheng Xuyuan was playing both sides.
Now it seems that I really thought too much.
"You guys chat, I'll go back first." Although he was still a little worried in his heart, Qin Wenhui still said with a smile.
Cheng Xuyuan tried to persuade him to stay, "Brother Wenhui, please wait a moment."
"Xiao Li doesn't have a bicycle, so it will be inconvenient to go back later."
"Why don't you come with me to send her off."
Cheng Xuyuan did this to prove to Qin Wenhui that there was nothing going on between him and Wu Xiaoli, but also because he felt it was inconvenient for Wu Xiaoli, a girl, to return to school.
After all, it was already night.
Qin Wenhui heard Cheng Xuyuan say this and said with a smile, "Okay then."
Wu Xiaoli didn't think about anything else. She hurriedly said, "Xuyuan, Xiaoxia fought for an opportunity to stay in school. Everything was going well, but now someone is going to take its place."
Cheng Xuyuan was stunned.
He had talked with Feng Xiaoxia and it was clear that Feng Xiaoxia seemed to want to return to the provincial capital where her hometown was.
But now, why did I end up staying in Yanjing?
"Don't be anxious, tell me what's going on?" Cheng Xuyuan said solemnly.
Wu Xiaoli took a breath and then said to Cheng Xuyuan, "Xuyuan, Xiaoxia's class has a place for students to stay in school."
"Xiaoxia started striving for this position in the second half of last year. Because of her hard work, this position is almost certain for her."
"But two days ago, a teacher in her class suddenly talked to her and asked her to withdraw voluntarily."
"Speaking of which, the spot has already been reserved. There is no point in her trying. It is just a waste of time at best."
At this point, Wu Xiaoli sighed and said, "I originally suggested that she come to you, but for some reason, she just didn't want to tell you about this."
"There's no other way. I have to come find you myself."
Cheng Xuyuan hesitated for a moment and said, "You should come to me."
"Let's go to my house later and talk about what's going on."
At this point, Cheng Xuyuan said to Qin Wenhui: "Brother Wenhui, it seems that I have to trouble you to wait for me for a while."
Qin Wenhui also knew that Cheng Xuyuan wanted to keep him. Although he felt that Cheng Xuyuan's approach was a bit unnecessary, he still agreed readily.
Wu Xiaoli and Cheng Xuyuan returned home, and while drinking hot water, she quickly told Cheng Xuyuan everything she knew.
Qin Wenhui listened to Wu Xiaoli's words and couldn't help but slap the table and said, "This is a bit too bullying."
"Xiao Li, don't worry. I will go with you to find your friend tomorrow and I will definitely take care of this matter."
When Wu Xiaoli heard Qin Wenhui say this, a smile immediately appeared on her face.
Although she didn't know Qin Wenhui, she felt that he was not an ordinary person from his attire.
"Thank you, Brother Qin."
Cheng Xuyuan said, "Brother Wenhui, I'll go over to take care of this matter tomorrow. It should be easy to resolve."
Qin Wenhui glanced at Cheng Xuyuan, smiled and said, "Okay, if you can handle it yourself, I won't cause you any trouble."
"But if you can't handle it, be sure to tell me."
Cheng Xuyuan smiled and said, "Thank you, Brother Wenhui, I have no problem with that."
"By the way, I'd like to trouble you to send Wu Xiaoli off."
Seeing Cheng Xuyuan speak so calmly, Wu Xiaoli felt relieved.
But she still had some doubts, thinking that this matter should not be as simple as Cheng Xuyuan said.
"Xiao Li, I'll pick you up at 8 o'clock tomorrow morning."
"Then we two will go find Feng Xiaoxia together."
Wu Xiaoli naturally had no objection to Cheng Xuyuan's proposal. She said solemnly, "Okay, I'll wait for you at the school gate at 8 o'clock tomorrow."
…
Feng Xiaoxia didn't know that Wu Xiaoli had gone to find Cheng Xuyuan. She felt a little dizzy throughout the day.
She had previously been hesitant about what to do after graduation.
But after hearing that there was a spot for staying in school, she began to work hard to make herself the one who stayed.
Feng Xiaoxia, who is smart and studious, is increasingly showing her advantages.
Gradually, many students felt that the opportunity to stay in school should be given to Feng Xiaoxia.
Feng Xiaoxia also felt that her wish was about to come true.
But just when her heart was full of expectations, fate seemed to be playing a joke on her.
A teacher whom she didn't have much contact with suddenly advised her to give up this opportunity to stay in school.
The reason given was that the nephew of a vice-president of the school also wanted to stay in school.
Feng Xiaoxia knew this classmate. His original goal was not to stay in school, but to go to some larger unit.
I heard from a classmate who had a good relationship with her that the reason this person suddenly wanted to stay in school was because all his previous plans had failed.
Feng Xiaoxia chose to refuse this unreasonable request.
However, the very next day after he refused, that classmate had already started his internship.
Although he was just learning, anyone with a discerning eye knew that this was just the beginning.
Although Feng Xiaoxia was filled with dissatisfaction with this situation, she could do nothing about it.
She is just a student after all.
"Xiaoxia, didn't you see that Tian Yu followed Teacher Tong to attend a meeting of the Literature Club this morning, and he even sat in the teacher's seat." A classmate who had a good relationship with Feng Xiaoxia came to Feng Xiaoxia and said with resentment in his voice.
Feng Xiaoxia said helplessly: "Just open it."
"Xiaoxia, are you ready to give up just like that?" The classmate looked at Feng Xiaoxia and said with concern in his voice.
Feng Xiaoxia smiled and said, "What can I do if I don't give up?"
"Instead of getting angry, I might as well think about what other good options I have now."
The classmate said, "Xiaoxia, you'd better find someone to think of a solution quickly, otherwise it will be too late."
Feng Xiaoxia was well aware of her classmates' good intentions.
But she really couldn't think of any good solution.
Maybe, going back to my hometown is not a bad choice.
Just as all kinds of thoughts were surging in her mind, she thought of Wu Xiaoli's words.
Wu Xiaoli suggested that she go find Cheng Xuyuan, saying that Cheng Xuyuan is no longer the same as before and might be able to help.
When Wu Xiaoli told her about this, she was somewhat moved.
But in the end, she let the idea go.
The reason for this was that she didn't want to cause trouble for Cheng Xuyuan.
Secondly, she felt that Cheng Xuyuan might not be able to help with this kind of thing.
Why should I add more trouble to him? It's better to face it alone.
The worst outcome is that you give up this place.
