Chapter 86: Pre-Exam Pep Rally (1/2)

Shen Lingyao wanted to back out.

She asked Zhao Qingfeng for his opinion.

Zhao Qingfeng understood Old Shen’s perspective.

Putting himself in Old Shen’s shoes, he certainly wouldn’t want his outstanding daughter to marry his current self, who had nothing.

He also knew that everything needed time and couldn’t be rushed.

Like he had said to Zhang Yang before, if you want to negotiate, you need capital. Charging in recklessly without anything is only asking to be ridiculed.

“Provincial cities are much bigger than our county town. Don’t you like milkshakes? Let Wang Jian take you to McDonald’s and have ten cups until you turn into a little piggy, ^(*￣(oo)￣)^.”

Zhao Qingfeng also planned to visit his uncle’s house over the weekend to investigate.

Feng Biao left early that morning. Zhao Qingfeng didn’t get much information from their brief conversation last night, as Feng Biao and his mother united in not letting him, who was about to take the university entrance exam, know anything.

“…”

Shen Lingyao really didn’t want to go.

She sat down with Zhao Qingfeng at the dining table, handed him a youtiao, and watched his face with a pout, “Stop joking. I know what my dad is planning. It’s just a meeting between two families, and then having Wang Jian talk about his so-called worldly experience.”

“I don’t want to hear it. He’s just traveled abroad, what’s the big deal?”

“But I don’t want to be at a disadvantage.”

“However, I’ve never been abroad. How can I outtalk him?”

“Brother Qingfeng, you’ve seen a lot in the provincial city for a month, right?”

“Hey, that’s it. You tell me, and I’ll tell them, so Wang Jian won’t look down on me.”

Shen Lingyao’s concerns were evident.

Zhao Qingfeng had seen too much of the world.

In his previous life, he traveled the world, had residences everywhere, and was friends with the rich and elite. A mere Wang Jian was nothing to fear.

But now, the situation was that the world he had seen was too vast, and talking about it would seem like boasting.

Moreover,

The more a person experiences, the more their mindset changes.

For example, when Zhao Qingfeng first started his business, he always thought people like Bill Gates and Warren Buffett were untouchable gods.

But after real interaction, he realized they were ordinary people with not many outstanding traits.

Their superiority over others was based on three qualities:

One, always optimistic and persistent.

Two, finding their own reasons without blaming the environment.

Three, sticking to their ideas without being influenced by others.

“Teach me quickly! You must have a way!”

Shen Lingyao, seeing Zhao Qingfeng deep in thought, suddenly grabbed his ear.

“Okay! Okay!”

Zhao Qingfeng had an idea. He found some paper and pen, wrote fervently, and then handed it to Shen Lingyao, “I’ve learned a lot from Old Yan recently. This time, I’ll write you a perfect essay. Memorize it, and find a chance to throw it at him.”

Shen Lingyao took the paper, her brows slightly furrowed, reading intently.

The more she read,

The more relaxed and happy her expression became, “Brother Qingfeng, you’re really good at making things up. How did you come up with this? Even I’m convinced by you…”
