"No rush." Jiang Nian sat down and opened his laptop, "I’ll reply to a message first, then I’ll double queue with you."
"Okay." Brother Bao Song had no objections.
Midway, Da Chao called. He asked Brother Bao Song to help press the power strip switch on his desk.
"I was dreaming in the car, and the power strip caught fire and burned down the dorm. Bro, I’m so sorry!"
Li Junfeng couldn’t hold it in, "Damn you, you’re such a moron, why say that out loud?"
Jiang Nian laughed out loud, just as he was caught doing so.
"What the hell?"
"When did Jiang Nian come back?"
"Morning."
"You bastard!!" Da Chao wailed for a while, "You’re never in the dorm, I don’t even see you in my dreams."
Jiang Nian: "......"
Is your dream a good one?
Stupid roommate.
He still remembered, back when they first reported to university. Brother Bao Song was reserved, Da Chao was bold, and Fanzi was cautious.
After half a year, the guys revealed their true selves.
Noon.
Jiang Nian went to the physics department to pick someone up, no need to drive today. After eating, he’d take a leisurely stroll.
A small walk in the afternoon, dinner with Li Lanying in the evening.
The three-person dinner was at a medium-sized restaurant with a somewhat elegant environment.
"Sister Ying."
"Hmm." Li Baiyou looked a bit aloof, glanced at him, "Final exams are over, did you manage to pass?"
At this, Jiang Nian felt awkward.
This old woman really has a nasty personality, asking about grades without considering anything, it’s bringing up the most unwanted topic. freёwebnoѵel.com
"It’s okay, I guess." Jiang Nian mumbled, then asked, "Sister Ying, are you not wearing makeup today?"
"I’m always barefaced." Li Lanying smiled.
Damn, calling me old, huh?
Looking for trouble!
The atmosphere between them was subtly tense, neither warm nor cold, talking about nothing much of substance, yet indeed exchanging pleasantries.
Li Qingrong, unperturbed, continued eating calmly.
"Aren’t you eating?"
"I am." Li Lanying smiled.
She thought to herself, damn it, this Jiang Nian truly fits the phrase. I wasn’t mature before, but maturity changes everything.
I underestimated him back then, now he can even arm wrestle with me.
Jiang Nian knew when to stop, not daring to quarrel with Li Lanying too much, the meal ended with a rather harmonious host-guest interaction.
Unexpectedly, there was a second phase.
Back home.
Li Lanying set up a table of drinks, pulling Jiang Nian for a drink. The latter felt awkward, originally wanting to leave but couldn’t.
"Come on, have a little drink."
"Sister Ying, I walked here." He was reluctant, "Encounter police on the way back, that would be trouble."
"If you get drunk, just sleep here." Li Lanying smiled, just looking at Jiang Nian, leaving the latter half unsaid.
But there’s no need to elaborate.
It’s not like he hasn’t slept over before.
Jiang Nian nodded in agreement, thinking to himself that it’s really unwise to offend a woman. Not only are they petty, but they hold grudges.
After two hours of sipping drinks, he was slightly tipsy.
"This foreign liquor is pretty good." Jiang Nian, keeping sober, glanced at the blush-red Li Lanying.
Damn, miscalculated.
Li Baiyou is a drunkard.
"Yeah... it’s pretty good." Li Lanying drank and drank, also forgetting to tease Jiang Nian, feeling a bit hazy.
Really unreliable huh.
Jiang Nian stood up, called out Li Qingrong who was reading, and pointed at the sight of Li Lanying that couldn’t be unseen.
"Your sister’s drunk."
Li Qingrong stood up, glanced outside. Then looked at Jiang Nian, seeing him still surprisingly sober.
"How much did you drink?"
Jiang Nian coughed, started throwing blame.
"Didn’t drink much, mainly your sister got drunk, couldn’t dissuade her, she insisted on drinking more."
"Oh." Li Qingrong sniffed the alcohol smell on him, "Next time don’t drink, she’s just playing around."
"Okay." Jiang Nian agreed verbally.
In truth, there wouldn’t be a chance to avoid it if it happened again. But for now, everything was sorted in Beijing.
In the end, Jiang Nian was ready to leave.
"Where to?"
"Back to the dorm." Jiang Nian said, "We’re down to one person in the dorm, I’m going back to supervise him in quitting bad habits."
Li Qingrong gave him a glance, seemingly speechless.
"It’s too late."
"Huh?"
"Rest here." Li Qingrong turned to her room, picked out some pajamas, "Go take a shower."
"Oh oh, your sister..."
"She’s this drunk, won’t wake before eleven tomorrow."
.....
Early in the morning, Jiang Nian left, heading back to the dormitory first. Worked until the afternoon, then stretched lazily.
"Feng, aren’t you sleeping?"
Brother Bao Song was gaming, typing furiously without turning his head, "Woke up at four in the morning, still not sleepy."
"Okay, I’m off then." Jiang Nian packed up, "You’re alone, mind your schedule."
"Send some messages in the group, don’t exhaust everyone."
"Got it."
Jiang Nian flew to Yuhang, hit the ground running. Started organizing, going over the company from start to finish.
A company with two shops, all refurbished. The style is minimalistic, focusing on solid colors for versatility.
"Boss, the factory wants to talk to you."
"Sure."
Currently, the company partners with small factories, meticulously selected, capable of handling small orders.
Nowadays, clothes sell well, causing many factories to lose patience.
Zhang Wei admired the boss’s foresight the most, whether it was in product selection, designing, or choosing factories.
Almost never made a mistake, everything spot on.
Damn, no wonder they’re from Beijing University.
He used to hope to be a model worker, staying with the company for food. Now, he wants to earn more and raise a kid.
Throughout history, it’s always been education that changes fate.
"Let’s go, why are you standing still?" Jiang Nian turned around, puzzled, "Get Fan Yixuan from operations to come along."
"Oh oh." Zhang Wei responded.
After several busy days, everything was negotiated.
Jiang Nian rearranged the process, with each piece of clothing requiring separate sorting, samples and documentation managed individually.
Even hired another person.
The effect was also evident, after upgrading the brand. The data rose significantly, the repurchase rate increased noticeably.
