Gao Mingda is a low-key but tactful secretary. He doesn't speak much at dinner and study, like a transparent person. When Du Qiu and others bid farewell, he enthusiastically volunteered to drive the three of them back to Jingui Garden.

"Secretary Gao, I'll bother you tonight."

"Okay, Manager Du, don't be polite." Gao Mingda rolled down the window and said to Du Qiu before reversing and leaving: "Mr. Du, there are many free offices in the research institute. Why don't I pick you up tomorrow and choose the most suitable one."

"I have something else tomorrow. I'll contact you in a few days."

"OK."

After Gao Mingda left, the three of them walked towards their home along the gravel path in the community. No one spoke at first. When they were about to reach the residential building, Du Chunhua suddenly said, "Brother, Principal Chen is a smiling tiger, you must be careful."

"Sister, how did you see it?"

"He knew you hadn't studied seriously, but he arranged for you to give a speech in college. He was applauding you on the surface, but actually giving you a warning and trying to see a joke."

Du Qiu thought it was true that after traveling through time, he had a big psychological blind spot, that is, he still regarded himself as a formally educated graduate student, so he did not think there was any problem in giving a speech at a university. However, in the eyes of the world, he was just a "folk scientist" who did not have a primary school diploma. Inviting him to give a speech at a university does mean it intentionally makes things difficult. If he agreed, he would seem ignorant and sensational. If he did not agree, he would seem guilty and short-sigh, and he was just a sign of it.

Fortunately, I was reminded by my mother...

However, with Chen Dayou as an eye, Chen Zhiyang would not not know my strength. This arrangement should not be aimed at me, but had other plans...

"Sister Chunhua, Mr. Du even gave a speech at the University of California, Berkeley. What is Sanjiang University?" Jiang Danfeng helped Du Qiu support the scene and said with a smile: "Berkeley is a top American university. It is more famous internationally than Beijing University. Mr. Du talks and laughs with the students of their school, and is not at all afraid."

Talk and laugh, hehe, this word is well used...

"Is that true?" Du Chunhua had never been to college and did not know about famous American universities, but she knew about Beijing University. She was surprised and happy. She patted Du Qiu's arm and said with a smile: "Have you told our dad about this? If he said that, he would be so smiling from ear to ear."

"Just go to some small activities organized by students, there is nothing to say."

"That's amazing, not to mention Berkeley in the United States, even Beijing University, there are not many people in the country who can give speeches, especially those who are as young as you."

Du Chunhua used to know that Du Qiu had done a big business in the United States, but he didn't know how big it was. He only realized that there were tens of millions tonight. He was very nervous. When he walked to the door, he reminded him again: "Brother, a big man like Principal Chen who is sweet-mouthed and sarcastic is helpful to your career, but there are also disadvantages. You must be careful and think twice before acting. Don't believe in whatever you say, otherwise you will be easily fooled by him as a puppet."

"I know."

"Danfeng, you are smart. Please help me watch him more. My little brother is unstable, speaks softly, but does things very stiffly, which makes people feel assured."

Jiang Danfeng was a little amused and didn't know what to say, so he had to whisper in his heart: Sister Chunhua, you are wrong. Du Qiu only lowered his eyebrows in front of you and spoke with a pleasing look. He was a cold-faced god in front of others. He was harder than the iron plate in winter, and there was no time to be soft...

After the three of them entered the house, they found Su Wenxiu and Lin Jinyan sitting shoulder to shoulder, painting opposite a Transformer model.

"Mom, look, is this Optimus Prime that Aunt Wenxiu taught me to draw? Is it good to look?"

"Jinyan is awesome, and the painting is beautiful."

"I haven't finished drawing yet. After I finish drawing, I will ask my uncle to take it to the United States and give it to Sister Qiqi."

"Little Guai, then you have to follow the aunt to draw well." Su Wenxiu put away the brush that Lin Jinyan had sprinkled on the ground and said, "Don't stop drawing halfway through the drawing, do you know?"

"I know, Aunt Wenxiu, when I have painted Optimus Prime, would you please tell me to paint Shura King?"

"Okay, let's get the hook."

Su Wenxiu is a girl with a very petty bourgeois mood, but the difference between her and ordinary petty bourgeois is that if she likes something, she will try it herself instead of wasting her time in a daze and fantasy. Therefore, when she was working in the library, she once taught herself sketching for a while - at that time, she planned to be an amateur fashion designer and design clothes for herself.

Seeing that Su Wenxiu and Du Chunhua and his son were intimate, Jiang Danfeng had already disappeared and jealousy grew again.

Before leaving New York, Du Qiu drafted a list, asking her to send the gifts she bought from the United States after returning to China. There were more than a dozen people on the list, and each of them had a relationship noted after their names, including either "partners", such as Su Wenhai and Wang Huihui, or "Lin Jinyan's friends", such as Wang Xiaoya and Lin Feifei.

Only one person wrote "friend" in the notes. This person is Su Wenxiu and the gifts he gave are also more attentive. For example, Su Wenhai and Wang Huihui gave all foreign wine. Although the price is not cheap, they are chosen casually. The one who gave Su Wenxiu was specially selected Parker Duofold pen. The style is the same as the one given to Du Chunhua, but the color is different.

Why is she always one step faster than me...

Could it be that she was the queen in her previous life and I was the imperial concubine? She was the eldest wife and I was the concubine?

"Wenxiu, I'll sleep with you tonight."

"Okay, just chat together. Last time I was in Beijing..."

Lin Jinyan probably felt that he had been snatched away from his attention. He stood between Su Wenxiu and Jiang Danfeng with his hands crossed, waved his hands and said loudly: "Auntie Wenxiu, I want to sleep with you and let Auntie Jiang go to sleep with her mother."

Jiang Danfeng bent down, held his knees with both hands, and said with a smile: "Jinyan, are the three of us sleeping together at night? Auntie is very good at telling stories."

"Okay, I'm going to sleep in the middle, you and Aunt Wenxiu sleep on both sides."

Du Qiu, who was drinking water at the dining table, squirted out, causing three women who didn't know the truth to look at each other. He took a few tissues and wiped them dryly while saying, "I accidentally choked."

You little pervert!

I didn't fly over while I was in New York, but you actually hugged each other with all your heart...

Lin Jinyan's hugs and hugs were not successful. After taking a shower, Du Chunhua grabbed him to the master bedroom and fell asleep quickly. Du Qiu used his laptop for about an hour in his bedroom. When he came out to the bathroom at around 11 o'clock, he vaguely heard two girls in the second bedroom whispering, mixed with laughter, probably talking about gossip between his besties.

Before leaving Yuncheng in March, Du Qiu resigned from his position as a design manager and changed to a design consultant who had no salary. The next day, he went to the company for half a day to work, got to know each other with several newly hired employees of the Creative Design Department, and exchanged some opinions on new products and TV commercials. At around 11 o'clock in the afternoon, he walked into Du Chunhua's office and asked for leave and said, "Sister, I'll go to my brother-in-law's place to check it out, and by the way, I'll return the money I borrowed to him."

Du Chunhua agreed and said, "When he came to Jinyan a few days ago, he said he planned to sell the auto parts store to someone else, and then open a car washing and repair shop near the municipal government. You can go and see if there is any place to help."

Huh? Didn’t my dad change his career and open a car wash store in 1996?

Opening a car wash near the municipal government, I have a good vision for doing business...

When I arrived at the auto parts store, I found that more than half of the parts had been sold. The guy also fired. The shop was empty, but Lin Dawei and Liang Jinyu were both here and were discussing a contract for the store sublease with a customer.

Liang Jinyu has been pregnant for more than six months and is wearing loose and fat clothes. She has changed from a thin professional white-collar worker when she first met to a round mother with a pre-production. When she saw Du Qiu, she looked a little unnatural, but she still greeted her warmly. After the contract was negotiated, she locked the store and found the best-class hotel nearby to entertain him.

"Sister Jinyu, when will you and your brother-in-law hold a wedding?"

"We have obtained a certificate and plan to invite relatives and friends to have a meal after the baby is born, even if it is a wedding."

"Congratulations." Du Qiu said a few casual words and asked again: "Have the baby named it?"

"Not yet, I plan to let our dad pick it up." Lin Dawei helped Liang Jinyu peel the shrimp shells considerately, and said while peeling: "We went to the hospital to see it. It's a girl. Now I've named Xiaotuanzi first."

Although the wings of the time travel have not yet flapped the national affairs, the people around me have been slapped around me. Unexpectedly, my father gave my younger sister such a strange nickname...

"Why are you called Xiaotuanzi?"

"When I went to take the B-ultrasound that day, I saw her curled up like a small ball, so I gave this name."

Lin Dawei has already regarded Du Qiu as a business genius. After talking about the topic of children for a while, he took the initiative to ask: "Aqiu, do you think I'm going to open a car washing and repair shop, is there any trouble?"

"Brother-in-law, with your skills and abilities, there is no problem whether you sell spare parts or repair cars. The problem is financial management." Du Qiu glanced at Liang Jinyu, and then said: "The cost of getting goods from Wang Chang'an is much lower than that of others. If you can pay money in one hand and deliver goods in the other hand, even if the auto parts store cannot make a lot of money, it will definitely not lose money every year."

Liang Jinyu agreed and snorted softly. Lin Dawei touched the back of his head and laughed dryly. He was arrogant and generous, so customers often had their preferences, first came to make friends, and then bought the goods on credit. After taking them, they did not pay the money for several months or even half a year. There were many scammers, those who ran away and those who refused to admit their accounts, and the financial situation was a mess, and it was difficult not to lose money.

A large part of the reason why Du Qiu pursues interpersonal relationships as simple as possible and isolates human relationships from work is that his father, the negative example, has done a great job. He suffered countless losses but has never changed. If Liang Jinyu had not been like a wealthy slave, he would have been bankrupt at least dozens of times in his life...

"Brother-in-law, since you are going to open a new store, I will pay you back the money I borrowed a few months ago."

"I heard Chunhua say that you have started a big business in the United States, so why don't you use it first? I don't have any shortage here..."

Liang Jinyu coughed, interrupting his father's words of slapping the swollen face and filling the fat man, and said very simply: "Du Qiu, since you still call Dawei's brother-in-law and call me Sister Jinyu, you just don't treat us as outsiders. Your family doesn't tell illusions. Let me tell the truth. His store has too much deficit and cannot collect a lot of money after it is sold out. The rent of the store near the municipal government is very expensive and the funds are relatively tight. If you have enough money, give it to him a little."

"I made a lot of money in the United States, and I will transfer it to my brother-in-law later." Seeing that his father looked embarrassed, Du Qiu picked up the glass containing beer and touched him. After the topic was broken, he asked, "Brother-in-law, are you free in the afternoon? I want to ask you for a favor."

“What’s the busy thing?”

"My sister celebrates her birthday the next day. I want to buy a car for her as a birthday gift. I want to ask you to be a consultant."

Du Chunhua's birthday was April 30, and he was exactly 30 years old in 1995. The meaning was quite special. Before Lin Dawei nodded, Liang Jinyu said, "I'm watching in the store. Dawei, please accompany Du Qiu."
