I'm sorry. I'm so sorry.
After a bumpy and tiring journey, we finally arrived at our destination - Wangyue Village.
"Brother Shi, Qiyue, you're finally here. I thought you had lost it."
"I'm sorry, Chu Zhiyi, I'm carsick again." Qi Yue scratched his head awkwardly.
"Why are there only the two of you, Tao Ran?"
"He has something to do, so he will be here half a month late."
Rather than saying that he had something to do, it would be more accurate to say that he had been sent to Xinghai to contact Mr. Wan about his KTV project. Apart from Yi Shiwu and Chu Zhiyi, Tao Ran was the only person in the entire studio who was capable of both architecture and design.
"Hello, Mr. Wan. I'm Tao Ran from Zero. I'm in charge of the design of our KTV project."
At this time, Mr. Wan's face was ashen, and he was obviously very dissatisfied with the final plan given by Zero. However, he couldn't find any other suitable company at the moment, so he could only give it a try.
"Xiao Chu, you know what to do, right?"
"Boss Wan, don't worry, we will definitely act according to the contract."
After hearing the satisfactory answer, Mr. Wan turned and left, leaving the breaching party standing there in a daze.
"Boss Zou, should I go back or stay?"
"Stay here for now. We can only take things one step at a time."
This contract was considered a breach of contract by Zero, and the amount of the breach of contract was borne by Yi Shiwu alone.
At this critical juncture, even if Zou Muchu wanted to stand by Yi Shiwu through thick and thin, Yi Shiwu would not agree. Instead of interfering forcefully, it would be better to do as Yi Shiwu said first and leave the future matters to the future, in case something unexpected happens.
"Old man, you must do this."
"Just do as I say." This was the call Yi Shiwu made to Zou Muchu while standing in his home the night before leaving.
"And don't tell Qiyue."
"Okay, I understand." Zou Muchu answered helplessly.
I have to say that after all these years, Yi Shiwu is still the same, honestly stupid and stubborn for justice.
"Hello, village chief. We are here to take charge of our resort's project. We hope you will continue to support us in the future."
"We support it, absolutely. This is all for the benefit of the village. Our entire village will definitely support it."
From the words of the village chief, it is not difficult to see that he is an honest man who has lived in the village all his life, living a comfortable life of poverty.
"Hey Xiaoshi, I'm sorry for causing you trouble this time. It's hard to explain to Mr. Wan!"
Yi Shiwu looked at Qi Yue who was playing with Chu Zhiyi, making sure they were at a distance where they could not be heard.
"It's a bit troublesome, but it can be solved, Mr. Yao, don't worry."
"I'm absolutely confident in your work. From now on, I'll leave it entirely to you. You'll also be in charge of all my personnel. Just call me if you need anything."
After saying that, he patted Isshigo's shoulder and completed the handover ceremony.
It has to be said that Mr. Yao has staked his entire fortune on this resort. Mr. Yao is an entrepreneur himself and shoulders the responsibility of giving back to society. This resort project is a brand new field and a bold attempt.
Maybe this is the difference between an entrepreneur and a businessman!
"Little boy, I've arranged for you to stay at the village office. You can all live here. It's close to us, so we can take care of you if anything happens."
"Thank you, and please."
"What trouble? I have to thank you for coming to our poor village."
The village chief was right. From the moment you enter this village, you can clearly feel the poverty.
Apart from the beautiful scenery of being surrounded by mountains and water, and the lush trees and sweet fruits, there is really nothing else to recommend it. In fact, the environment of this resort is fine, but there is still a crucial issue, which is the "road".
The transportation is underdeveloped and traffic is difficult. Even if it is a place with beautiful mountains and rivers, how can tourists be willing to go there? First of all, the hardware is not up to standard.
But isn’t the purpose of public welfare to solve problems? I didn’t expect the difficulties I faced to be so great, so great that from the very first day, I felt as if I was foreseeing the bleak end.
Some things are not done because we see hope, but there is hope only after we do them. Don't do them with the assumption of success, but there is hope of success only after we do them.
Yi Shiwu is such a person. He loves life and is satisfied with material abundance. At the same time, he also pursues spiritual richness. However, the most difficult thing in life is to have both.
There is no way to be safe in life. I will not let down the Buddha and you.
"Fifteen, what are you thinking about?" When Yi Shiwu heard Qi Yue calling him, he realized that he had been standing there in a daze staring at the green mountains and clear waters for a long time.
"Brother Shi, are we leaving? Are we going to the dormitory?"
"Here I come."
Now that you are here, make the best of it. Build roads when you encounter mountains and build bridges when you encounter rivers.

"Son, would you like to eat something?" Qin Rong outside the door called out to her child again.
Ever since Lin Lei came back, he has applied for annual leave from the company. You know, Manager Lin, who has always had outstanding performance, is a person who never rests even on vacation. This time he applied for annual leave, which paid back a month including principal and interest. If you don't know, you might think he was on a honeymoon.
Lin Lei was lying on the bed in a daze in the room, with beer bottles of various sizes scattered all over the floor. He had not left the room since returning from vacation, and it had been a week.
Qin Rong was very worried at this time, and seemed to be at a loss. It was the first time she saw her son like this. Even though her son didn't say anything, Qin Rong had guessed that if it weren't for her, no one would let her son be so miserable.
"Leader, do we really have no chance?"
"Why, why have we come to this day?"
He could hear the sound of mumbling to himself, and it was unclear whether Lin Lei was awake or asleep, or perhaps half asleep and half awake.
The glass fragments on the table and the blue stars of varying shades in the new bottles glowed brightly in the moonlight.
Looking at the door that made no sound, and then looking at her grandson who was sitting in the hall, Qin Rong turned around and wiped away the tears that had already fallen. It turned out that on her face full of traces of time, the tears were still so crystal clear.
Three days later, Chu Zhiyi and Qi Yue came to Xinghai City to purchase some office equipment as requested by Yi Shiwu.
Sea Wing Plaza.
"Qiyue, we've almost finished shopping, why don't we go out and have some fun together?"
Qi Yue looked at the unsuccessful man and responded without any warmth.
"Are you here to work or to have fun?"
"Don't blame me, I'm working seriously. But the bus back home doesn't leave until 3 o'clock this afternoon, and it's only 11 o'clock now. Should we go have dinner?"
Qi Yue looked at her watch and realized that it was still early to go back in the afternoon.
"Well, you go get the stuff shipped, I'll buy some drinks, and then we'll go eat."
"Okay, that's it."
After saying that, he walked forward quickly without looking back.
"It's really a rush."
After saying that, Qi Yue chose the nearest milk tea shop and ordered drinks according to their preferences.
"Hello, Gardenia Milk White has 30% sugar and icing. White Orchid has 70% sugar."
According to Chu Zhiyi's habit, Bai Lan usually orders full sugar, but Qi Yue always feels that eating too much sugar is not good, so she always orders 70% sugar. This is Qi Yue's usual practice, and Chu Zhiyi has become accustomed to it.
Just after Qi Yue took the first cup, a little boy ran over and knocked Qi Yue off balance, causing her to come into close contact with the ground. The drink spilled and the little boy fell down.
Qi Yue’s first reaction was to go and see the little boy, a three or four-year-old boy, who ran over for some reason. She only heard the parents behind him calling his name.
"Spend money, spend money, oh my dear grandson."
Qi Yue helped the little boy up. The child fell down just like he was playing at home. Maybe children of this age have some experience with minor bumps, so he didn't cry or make a fuss, but just dropped two drops of gold beans.
"Little boy, are you okay?" Qi Yue came to her senses and checked the child's injuries.
"Spend money, are you okay?" A young woman's voice came into Qi Yue's ears.
Qi Yue raised her head inadvertently. It was the person in the photo. To be honest, he seemed more down-to-earth than the photo she had seen before.
"I'm sorry, are you okay? The child is young and ignorant, running around in the square."
"It's okay, kid?"
The child's grandmother picked up her grandson and patted him gently on the back, completely ignoring the two people who were talking.
The generations apart are really close!
"Everything is spilled, let me buy you another drink!"
"It's okay, there's no need." After saying that, Qi Yue pulled up her mask, covering most of her face.
I originally thought that I wouldn’t meet anyone I knew, so Qi Yue, who was used to wearing a mask, hung the mask on her chin. But unexpectedly, I still met someone I knew but the other person didn’t know, but who existed only in my memory.
Qi Yue looked at the child and after making sure that nothing was wrong, she took out her tissues, cleaned the floor, got herself another cup of milk tea, and left without looking back.
"I'm sorry. I'm so sorry."
Qi Yue waved her hand behind her back to indicate that it was nothing.
"This person is really weird. He didn't even respond to the apology?" Qin Rong expressed her dissatisfaction. After all, her own grandson had also fallen down.
"Mom, if it wasn't someone else, who knows where I would get hurt if I spent money on it?"
I have to say that Su Li is really a very good woman, gentle and intellectual. She is not a beauty at first glance, but she is indeed a woman who is worth looking at.
Qi Yue went up to the fifth floor and stood at the escalator waiting for Chu Zhiyi. A very familiar name came to her mind.
"Lin Lei, the world is really small."
"Qiyue."
"hiss."
Qi Yue quickly broke free from Chu Zhiyi's hand.
"I was just bumped by a child. It hurts. Don't touch me."
"Let me see if anything is wrong. Or let's go to the hospital."
"Why go to the hospital? It's just a fall. There's no need to make a fuss."
"No, let's take a look. Otherwise, if I break Shi Ge's beloved child, won't he abuse me?"
"Don't worry, I know what's going on. Don't tell anyone when we get home!"
Chu Zhiyi took the milk tea handed to her by Qiyue and kept scanning Qiyue with curious eyes.
"Why only one cup? Is that yours?"
"I don't want to drink anymore. I want to drink water."
The three generations of grandparents and grandchildren on the third floor continued to walk towards the children's area, and the two older friends on the fifth floor walked towards the dining area. One went south and the other went north, just like the trajectory of life, and they didn't want to have any more intersections.
