"Shouldn't I be asking you that question?"
Yu Mobai rolled his eyes. "What are you doing here?"
"The house I bought is upstairs."
Chen Zhixi said with a smile, "So I come to check on Dong Xuejie's renovation progress every day."
"Well, you see, I'm leaving."
Yu Mobai didn't want to pay attention to her and turned to leave.
Why are you so resistant to me?
Chen Zhixi pouted and said, "I've been chasing you for two years. Even a snowman can melt, but I still can't thaw your heart."
I only see you as a younger sister.
Yu Mobai said with a smile, "But you always want to be my wife."
"I'm only a year younger than you, so I can't be your wife."
Chen Zhixi puffed out her chest. "I've grown up a lot recently. I'm not that little girl anymore."
Yu Mobai's gaze shifted downwards, then he stared at her with some surprise.
That seems to be the case.
From the moment they met, Yu Mobai's impression of Chen Zhixi was always that of a young girl who had just graduated from high school and still had a touch of naivety.
This impression has remained unchanged to this day.
But after Chen Zhixi's guidance, he suddenly realized that this girl seemed to have shed her last trace of naivety and was gradually becoming charming and lovely.
Wow, I really underestimated her.
Yu Mobai shook his head, not wanting to dwell on this topic any longer. "I'm going back to school. Are you coming back too?"
"Go back!"
For Chen Zhixi, she'd go anywhere as long as she could be with Yu Mobai.
Back at school, Chen Zhixi wouldn't let Yu Mobai leave, and the two of them wandered around the playground.
Along the way, Yu Mobai could feel that many boys were looking at Chen Zhixi.
It seems this girl has really grown up.
Yu Mobai smiled and shook his head, then broke free from her arm and left.
"Senior Yu, you're just leaving like this!"
...
The next morning, as soon as Yu Mobai arrived at the company, Qi Moliang rushed in.
"Mo Bai, this is great news."
Qi Moliang said mysteriously, "Guess what good thing is it?"
"I won the lottery! I won a hundred million?"
Yu Mobai replied with a grin.
"You have been invited to participate in the exchange meeting at the end of this year."
Qi Moliang turned on his computer; there was an email on it.
The gist of it is that he's someone important now and wants to invite you into his circle of influential people.
In the past month or so, with the support of the education bureau leaders, he has become a dark horse in the internet field.
With the added boost from League of Legends, Yu Mobai's net worth has been rising rapidly, a phenomenon that can only be described as "skyrocketing" in a short period of time.
Therefore, as a dark horse in the industry, it was natural for them to be invited to participate in the Internet Exchange Conference.
This conference is basically a gathering for industry veterans to exchange ideas.
Even Jack Ma, Pony Ma, the CEO of NetEase, and a host of other big names will participate.
This can be considered the first step into the high-end circle.
The meeting was tentatively scheduled for the end of December, and on that day he took Dong Yike along to broaden her horizons.
The location is in a financial center in Shanghai.
Yu Mobai and Dong Yike were also disguised.
Upon entering the venue, one can see many industry veterans chatting and laughing in their respective circles.
In these situations, the initial discussions mainly revolve around gossip from outside the industry and ways to make money.
This even includes some forward-looking changes in the situation.
For example, they're talking about how gold prices will skyrocket in a few months, and how buying now would be a sure way to make a fortune.
However, this news may not spread to the public for several months. While everyone is frantically buying gold, the big players have already made a fortune and sold off at the peak.
Some people who receive the news early can still have a taste of its benefits, but most people will spit it out and complain that the news is inaccurate.
This is actually the benefit brought about by information asymmetry.
If an ordinary person hears about a chance to make a fortune here, they might actually strike it rich while riding the wave of opportunity.
That's why the rich get richer and richer. They know the news months before you do, so what's the point of you playing?
When Yu Mobai entered the venue, some people noticed him and would look at him and chat for a few minutes. Of course, it was really just a few minutes of casual conversation.
Compared to Yu Mobai, who is only just beginning to show his talent, these bigwigs haven't taken him seriously yet.
However, one of the bosses took the initiative to come up and greet him, "Xiao Yu, I've only heard of you before, I didn't expect to actually meet you this time."
Yu Mobai glanced at it and exclaimed, "Wow, isn't this one of the two Mas, Jack Ma?"
His collaboration with Alipay was mutually beneficial. Of course, Lao Ma knew about this college student who helped him solve the problem of a total number of new users in a year using only half of the funds.
He had also taken a liking to Yu Mobai's talent at the time, but Yu Mobai refused him decisively. Unexpectedly, the two of them met in this kind of setting not long after.
"Your actions saved me a lot of money."
Jack Ma smiled and brought Yu Mobai into his circle, introducing him to others as well.
Yu Mobai was neither pretentious nor spoke out of turn; he simply listened quietly.
His main purpose in coming here was to become a familiar face, so that one day he could say, "Mr. X, you forgot? We met once at the exchange meeting. It was Mr. Ma Yun who introduced us."
Sometimes, one sentence is enough.
Dong Yike also took the opportunity to show her face in front of the big boss, but that was all.
