Seeing his mother's surprised reaction, Ding Zhengnan continued to speak to himself, "You have no idea how popular the qi he developed is in America. Unfortunately, he hasn't been able to go abroad due to passport issues. Once he finishes the Spring Festival, I will go abroad with him..."
Upon hearing this, Lu Yan felt that if she were to play the role of the villain, it would have no effect at all. It would be best for Jiang Yizhou to make a decisive move. She didn't care how successful that guy was; since he was unwilling to accept it, he should just leave quickly!
...
For Jiang Yizhou, Ding Zhengnan's visit was merely an interlude.
This inexplicable situation of being pursued by someone was something he never experienced in his past life. It wasn't about money; when he first encountered girls, he was just a poor rural worker without a proper job, which was even worse than in his previous life.
Along the way, the girl helped him a lot and invested a great deal in him, but Jiang Yizhou always felt quite uncomfortable.
He wasn't the kind of protagonist who exuded an overwhelming aura just by being present. He couldn't imagine that simply proposing a good idea would lead others to be amazed and become enamored with his talent. Such things were impossible.
His relationship with the girl had started with fate and her initiative, combined with his insincere need for her help. Although he wasn't aware of it at first, he gradually realized the guilt of his actions.
Unlike venture capitalists who invest for a bright future and ultimately aim to make more money—hence they take risks—Jiang Yizhou understood that the girl's investment was driven by emotions. Naturally, she hoped he could feel that emotion and reciprocate it.
Jiang Yizhou wasn't foolish; although he didn't realize it at first, he gradually came to understand.
However, the most important question was why he should reciprocate with feelings. Sincere love was like molten lava; if one wasn't equally passionate, they would eventually end up like someone who fell into a volcano.
As the saying goes, true gold fears no fire. Jiang Yizhou never believed he had an unchanging heart like gold, so he dared not respond to expectations. He preferred to find a timid and submissive woman as if it were a contract—marriage.
He was just a selfish coward. This kind of scenario that he never dared to imagine in his past life had appeared before him, leaving him at a loss and prompting him to escape once again.
People are like this; sometimes they are very serious, so strict that even a small flaw in love is unacceptable. Other times, they are quite casual, just looking for someone to understand them and spend the remaining years together, constantly changing and repeating.
This competition is like a car race, with different degrees of curves and also straight paths where one can simply step on the gas without any excitement, constantly changing.
After an unremarkable straight path, a winding curve may suddenly appear. If one is not careful, they might flip the car. Conversely, after a challenging curve, there could be a long straight path, but the race car keeps colliding left and right...
In various ways, Jiang Yizhou is such a pretentious person. He might attract the opposite sex for some inexplicable reason or refuse affection due to some inexplicable insistence.
Now he finds it hard to let go; Ding Zhengnan is a good girl. Although he hasn't felt moved enough to accept her, he isn't cruel enough to hurt her either. He can only act like an ostrich with its head buried in the sand, pretending not to see her and hoping she would leave without him saying anything.
A scoundrel is just pretentious; Jiang Yizhou suddenly feels this saying fits him perfectly. Love is too difficult; it has nothing to do with money. Why not just go abroad in the future and be a surrogate? Shouldn't that make him a holy virgin?
Jiang Yizhou opened his notebook and seriously added a line at the end of his life goals: "If I don't get married, have one son and one daughter through surrogacy!!!"
Having both a son and a daughter sounds good. Jiang Yizhou is genuinely contemplating this issue; marriage really seems to depend on fate!
...
"What happened to you? Why do you look like this? Do you need me to help you buy breakfast?" Seeing Qin Yi looking disheveled and spiritless, Jiang Yizhou wiped his face clean and asked with concern.
"Isn't winter break coming soon? I have a ton of things waiting for me to handle, plus I have a report due this afternoon—twenty thousand words! I haven't written a single word yet! You should go ahead; don't mind me. The more you disturb me, the more annoyed I get," Qin Yi said, sporting large dark circles under her eyes and an expression full of resentment as she began to wash up in a daze.
Jiang Yizhou just smiled. It's fine to take pleasure in others' misfortunes, but it would be too despicable to kick someone when they're down. After getting dressed properly, he had a simple breakfast at a nearby eatery before taking the bus to work.
Upon arriving at the company, he learned that his passport had already been picked up on his behalf. Jiang Yizhou had filled out a bunch of materials under the guidance of professionals and smoothly completed the passport process. He didn't really understand what the specific procedures were; the consultant just told him to wait for the passport and visa to be ready. If anything required his presence, they would notify him.
If everything goes well, he should be able to go abroad after returning from the Spring Festival. Jiang Yizhou continued to immerse himself in work when he received a call from Zhang Xiaolong that pleasantly surprised him; it seemed quite simple as if the other party had taken the bait easily.
"Hello, I am Zhang Xiaolong. Is this Mr. Jiang Yizhou?" A steady male voice came through the microphone.
Jiang Yizhou smiled with delight, "Yes, it's me. Have you thought it over, Brother Zhang?"
Zhang Xiaolong was taken aback for a moment, then realized that Jiang Yizhou was only eighteen years old, so calling him Brother Zhang wasn't too inappropriate, although it felt a bit too familiar.
"Well, I wonder, Mr. Jiang, how do you plan to operate fail, and what is the acquisition price?" Zhang Xiaolong asked the two questions he was most concerned about.
Jiang Yizhou directly shared his thoughts, "I plan to integrate fail into the qi panel by adding a fail button on the qi panel. Clicking it will redirect to the Mailbox interface. At the same time, fail will serve as independent software that can be linked to qi Number, and qi Number can also create a fail mailbox! As for the price, how about fifty thousand?"
Zhang Xiaolong thought for a moment and expressed his opinion, "This should be more suitable for eb Browser Mail, right? Mr. Jiang, why did you think of acquiring my fail?"
He didn't question the fifty thousand acquisition price; instead, he was quite satisfied. Free software was rare; apart from Jiang Yizhou's qi, most others were developed based on personal interests.
"Because I believe you can develop such an excellent client Mailbox. The eb Mailbox shouldn't be difficult for you either. What's your response?" Jiang Yizhou could only explain this way; he couldn't just say he knew how much Jiang Yizhou would achieve in the future and how famous he would become.
"Alright, I agree."
