Chapter 219: A Little Interlude (Part 1)

Zhao Qingfeng insisted on making a trip to Beijing before the start of the school term.

Besides helping Aunt Ding find her younger sister, there were three other things he needed to do.

Firstly.

The net cafe management system had sold thousands of sets, with the highest number in Beijing.

According to Marina, all credit went to a girl named ‘Gao Siya.’ Such a formidable person was a must-meet.

Secondly.

Legend of Mir was three days away from its internal test.

Most gold farming studios were located in developed cities like Beijing and Shanghai.

Whether for sales or understanding the market, starting in big cities was much better than the slightly more remote and less developed northern cities.

Thirdly.

To give Shen Lingyao a proper tour.

He didn’t want to miss any of her wishes.

Moreover, traveling together meant sharing a bed, which might lead to sweeter and more thrilling little interludes than just kissing.

Preparation precedes action.

The train to Beijing wasn’t departing until noon, so Zhao Qingfeng used the morning to visit Erlunsi.

Everyone there already knew about Zhao Qingfeng’s happy event and had prepared gifts.

Gold necklaces, plush toys, various clothes, shopping cards, and more—just the sentiments alone amounted to much more than fifty thousand for Shen Lingyao.

Li Jianjun and Wang Yang were especially happy, congratulating him repeatedly.

Liu Li also brought a gift and insisted on acknowledging Shen Lingyao as her god-sister.

Wang Tieshan was terrified, secretly grateful a hundred times that his own mischievous pet hadn’t pestered him too hard.

Only Zhang Dekai was somewhat opposed, pulling Zhao Qingfeng aside, “Little Feng, aren’t you rushing things? The Shen girl is good, but isn’t it too early? I mean no offense, but there are so many women in the world. Aren’t the ones in those clubs and foot massage parlors tempting? If I were as rich and awesome as you, I’d definitely play until I was forty before thinking about marriage!”

Everyone has their own perspective.

Zhao Qingfeng was amorous, but only towards Shen Lingyao.

For him, whether it was mundane beauty or stunning beauties, even if a fairy descended from heaven, he wouldn’t be moved in the slightest.

“Anything else?”

Zhao Qingfeng asked, wrapping his arm around Old Zhang.

“Yes!”

Work-wise, there were no problems. Erlunsi was in a period of rapid development, and everything was going smoothly.

But on a personal level, Zhang Dekai did have a question, “My younger brother recently took a liking to a girl who’s all good except for one thing: she has tattoos. And I mean, her entire arm is covered. What do you think, should I agree to them being together?”

How to answer this?

Not all without tattoos are good people, and not all with tattoos are bad.

“Old Zhang, do you watch movies?”

“Not really, why?”

“I used to watch a lot, and I noticed that in the explorer zone, 99% of the girls have tattoos, but you hardly see them in the candid zone. Do you get what I mean?”

“Ah? Oh! Okay!”

Old Zhang clacked his mouth as if he understood something and turned to make a phone call.

Zhao Qingfeng then settled some future business developments and took Shen Lingyao back to his small company.

“Boss Zhao!”

Cai Shuwen had missed Zhao Qingfeng terribly in nearly ten days.

He hadn’t visited him in the county not out of insincerity but because he was fully committed to researching the underlying architecture of the social media platform, unwilling to waste a moment.

His dark circles had deepened, and his fingers were yellowed from cigarette smoke, but fortunately, the development of the underlying architecture had reached 100% completion, with only the addition of other modules remaining.

The only issue was still the shortage of manpower.

Upon hearing Zhao Qingfeng was heading to Beijing, Cai Shuwen quickly grabbed his arm, “Boss Zhao, when will you be back? Marina got into a crazy argument on a forum a few days ago, and a few big shots were quite offended. They’re planning to come to our company in a few days to show what they’ve got!”

This was great news.

Just when they needed more people.

After inquiring about the specifics, Marina had challenged three individuals she considered big shots, but to Zhao Qingfeng, they were merely little bulls.
