Ordinary Road 2010

"Shao Yu was on a business trip with me in Yangcheng some time ago, so let him stay in the capital to assist Li Jianguo in attacking Jinmen."

Talking about work again allowed both of them to find a familiar rhythm, and the atmosphere on the table was finally more active than before.

They are all the type to eat very quickly. After clearing the food on the table, Lin Yi said again:

"It's a bit rudimentary. Let's make up my senior sister's birthday after returning to the capital. My birthday was also made up for me by Jianguo two days ago."

"Not shabby."

When the senior sister said this, she just turned her head to look at Lin Yi, and the eyes of the two collided straight in the air, and time seemed to be miraculously frozen here for a second.

Then they looked at each other and smiled.

After this unsatisfactory birthday dinner, Lin Yixian sent his senior sister back, and called Li Jianguo and Zhang Xun in the capital respectively according to what the two had just discussed, and finally left to go out and find a small hotel nearby to stay.

When Lin Yi was walking alone on the road, he recalled the eye contact with his senior sister tonight, and Han Xue's words before coming rang in his ears again.

The senior sister is not slow, but Han Xue's reminder is also very timely.

He has made up his mind.

Chapter 289 Lin Yi's Signal

Lin Yi didn't emphasize being single in school, but he certainly didn't want to tattoo "I have a girlfriend" on his forehead.

Even the roommates who knew this early in the morning hardly talked about it in the dormitory, because what is there to talk about with people who have never seen photos?Wang Wenfeng has always suspected that Lin Yi's girlfriend was made up.

Of course Li Moyan never asked.

In the beginning of the relationship with the senior sister, Lin only intended to be a partner, until the beginning of school when he mistakenly thought that the senior sister was injured and went to the hospital, he took the initiative to take the pink paper crane, and the reason was not willing to think too much.

Han Xue's reminder this time, as well as that look in his eyes, made him have to face up to his heart.

He had already decided to give that signal before leaving Jiangcheng.

Of course, we still have to think of a proper way. It would be too dry to throw Li Jianguo directly to Cui Xiaoxue. Even if the senior sister is always grand, it will inevitably make the scene awkward.

The next day, Lin Yi found another house nearby as a foothold for himself and the other boys who had called for support from the capital.

Zhang Xun is also very efficient. He just made a call last night and showed up in Jiangcheng the next day with his troops.

The next step, of course, was to throw everyone out and repeat what they had done in the capital. A week later, Lin Yi and his senior sister met again.

"Have you been hungry in the past week? How about over there?"

"It's following the same pace, but the progress is slower than ours."

"Are you hungry? The manpower, material and financial resources are more than ours. If they put all their efforts into it, it will not only be this speed, so it can be confirmed that they are idle players, and they have no intention of performing a Jiangcheng hegemony with us."

This discovery made Lin Yi heave a sigh of relief, but also felt a sense of urgency. Before, they were still racing against time, but now their opponents on other tracks had appeared.

This day, Lin Yi and his senior sister appeared on the campus of Jiangcheng University. They came here mainly to inspect the city manager candidates here.

Because the "land reclamation period" here in Jiangcheng is almost over, and the next step is to gradually occupy the whole city according to the plan. It would be a waste to delay the two of them here.

"What do you think of that Wang Yuan just now?"

Wang Yuan was the candidate they met just now, and the senior sister shook her head: "I don't think so."

"Although his resume is very good, the student union, clubs, academics, and grades are all outstanding. He even won the top ten singers in the campus singer competition, and his previous work has been done very well."

"But human energy is limited. It is precisely because he has spent time in so many places. I doubt how much effort he can put into the position of Jiangcheng city manager of casual food delivery network."

"In particular, he also mentioned that he plans to go to Europe for exchange next year. What will happen to Jiangcheng? Do we have to find another one?"

Lin Yi's feelings are similar to those of the senior sister. The reason why Wang Yuan said this unscrupulously is not because of low EQ, but because he doesn't pay much attention to this opportunity.

For Lin Yi and Li Moyan, starting a business is a matter of doing their best.But this one seems to just regard it as a more interesting part of college life, even when it comes to being "entrusted with important tasks" by them, it doesn't take it as a big deal.

Of course, everyone's identities are different, and he's not a boss or a partner, so it's normal to not have a sense of ownership, but Lin Yi certainly doesn't want his subordinates to face work with such an attitude, especially when they are still sitting in such an important position.

But then again, Lin Yi's Shi Jianrui in Yangcheng is not a perfect candidate, the key is to see if they have other choices.

So after thinking about it, he said: "Let's observe again. If there is no better candidate, it's okay to let him take this position first. We can talk about next year's affairs next year. After all, we can't even predict next month's affairs."

The senior sister nodded in agreement.

After talking about this matter, Lin Yi proposed again: "It just so happens that I have a high school classmate in Jiangcheng University. Let's go and have dinner with her?"

He was talking about Jiang Zixuan, because of the old Xiong's relationship, Lin Yi was quite familiar with the class monitor and classmates, and he didn't come here on purpose today, but it just happened to be a meeting, so Jiang Zixuan would not be stingy with hospitality.

The senior sister doesn't care, just wondering why Lin Yi didn't remember to meet his classmates until he came here for a long time?

Lin Yi made a phone call, and Jiang Zixuan went to the appointment happily. Originally, she was very casual when she saw Lin Yi, but she was a little surprised when she found another person beside her:

"Who is this?"

"This is my direct senior sister at Jingdian, and the partner who started the business together."

The senior sister greeted briefly: "Li Moyan."

Jiang Zixuan knew about Lin Yi's entrepreneurship: "I met Xiong Yucheng during the winter vacation. He said that he went to Beijing to look for you a few years ago, and he also said that you are starting a business. Has this developed into Jiangcheng?"

Old Xiong is still reliable, he didn't tell about Gu Caiwei, Lin Yi decided to say less about him next time he sees him.

"Squad leader, shall we find a place to eat and talk? I'm hungry."

"Okay, let's go."

Jiang Zixuan led the way, and Lin gave a brief introduction to the food delivery network, and asked her to take care of the business.

After arriving at the place, Jiang Zixuan ordered a lot of dishes boldly, and the three of them sat down and chatted while eating, of course, it was mainly Jiang Zixuan and Lin Yi who were chatting.

Because their topic quickly changed from entrepreneurship to high school life and the current situation of other students in Class [-], the senior sister naturally couldn't get in the way, so she just ate quietly.

In fact, when Lin Yi came to Jiang Zixuan, she had an expectation in her heart that she would take the initiative to ask about Gu Caiwei, because the class monitor had a good relationship with Xiao Gu in high school, and now she doesn't know her situation.

Taking this opportunity, he could just explain his relationship with Gu Caiwei to his senior sister in private.

However, Lin Yi soon discovered that Jiang Zixuan mentioned many people but did not mention Gu Caiwei, probably avoiding it on purpose.

He immediately understood that the class monitor's character was still too cautious, and he didn't understand the situation between him and his senior sister, so he didn't mention another girl who had a close relationship with Lin Yi in front of the two of them.

What Lin Yi didn't know was that Jiang Zixuan was also wondering: Xiong Yucheng said during the winter vacation that he fell in love with a senior from the student union, and now Lin Yi started a business with a senior sister. Do boys nowadays like older than themselves?

No matter what the two parties thought, in short, Lin Yi did not achieve his goal this time, so he had to say goodbye to Jiang Zixuan and leave with regret.

On the way back, he remembered: "Just now I forgot to ask Jiang Zixuan to take us to see the cherry blossoms at Jiangcheng University, what a pity."

The senior sister is not the kind of girl who is obsessed with romance, and she doesn't feel any emotion when she hears this.

Just when Lin Yi was thinking about Jiang Zixuan's failure and how to tell about Gu Caiwei's affairs, his cell phone rang suddenly.

He dug it out and found that it was Gu Caiwei who called him. She rarely called him because she didn't want to disturb Lin Yi, and this point should be in training.

So Lin Yi answered the call in front of the senior sister and shouted:

"Xiaowei."

A tired girl's voice came from the opposite side: "Lin Yi, can you come and see me?"

Chapter 290 Today Is Not April Fool's Day

Turn back the time to a day ago.

Gu Caiwei, who is far away in Rongcheng, is in a good mood today. Since she took the opportunity to find Director Xia of Zhijiang Satellite TV, who her father contacted for her, to find Lin Yi in Lin'an during the winter vacation, they haven't seen each other again.

Gu Caiwei knew about Lin Yi's going south to Jiangcheng, and then learned that Lin Yi was planning to return to Beijing in the next few days, and would find a chance to see her if time allowed.

So when the training was over, she took the initiative to invite: "Yali, come to my house for dinner tonight. Mom made delicious Yuezhou cuisine. You are from Shanghai and you should be used to it."

Although it is very common to go to Gu Caiwei's house for dinner with the relationship between the two of them, Xu Yali has been under a lot of pressure recently, and she is a little delicate about Gu Caiwei in her heart.

"No, I want to stay here alone and practice for a while." She politely declined.

"Let's go, aren't you on your menstrual period today? Don't force yourself!"

Xu Yali was finally dragged out by Gu Caiwei. When the two returned home together, Ms. Gu Changge had just prepared a sumptuous meal.

She was not surprised when she saw Xu Yali coming together, and directly asked them to wash their hands and eat. The table was not too big for the three of them to sit together and feel a little happy.

Xu Yali tasted the familiar Jiangnan taste, and she felt relaxed when she heard the mother and daughter beside her talking some warm homely words. She thought maybe this was the reason why Gu Caiwei was able to bring her out just now.

After the meal, Ms. Gu Changge did not stay together any longer, and left them a little sister space so that the two of them could have some private conversations.

"Do you drink water?"

Xu Yali is lactose intolerant and can't drink milk. In order to manage her body, she doesn't drink a drop of other sugary drinks, so she basically only drinks water.

Today, due to physical reasons, she needs to drink some hot water.

Xu Yali has been here many times, and she can solve it by herself without Gu Caiwei's hands. She even asked Gu Caiwei when pouring water.

"Okay, give me some."

"Be careful, the water temperature is a bit high."

Gu Caiwei retracted her hand. Xu Yali was just pouring water casually, but she was surprised to find that the coating on the cup quickly peeled off, revealing a completely different pattern.

She has seen this cup many times, but Gu Caiwei has never taken it out at home. The pattern on the outside of it is a screenshot of Hayao Miyazaki's animated movie "Spirited Away". At that time, they discussed the plot together.

Yes, this is the temperature-changing mug that Lin Yi gave to Gu Caiwei on her senior year's birthday.

Of course, Xu Yali wouldn't make a fuss about it, but after it took off the disguise, it revealed the back of a boy, holding up his hands and gesticulating a letter V representing victory.

"This is……"

Gu Caiwei was a little embarrassed, she forgot that this cup would change when she put hot water on it, but luckily she was at home.

"This is Lin Yi. You met me on my birthday last year. This is the birthday present he gave me the year before."

Sure enough, Xu Yali still remembered, because that person gave her a strange feeling at that time: "I remember he said that he was called Xiong or something?"

Gu Caiwei had already forgotten that Lin Yi used a "pseudonym" last time, so she covered up her mistake: "He just likes to tease people!"

A birthday present was hidden at home, and they dared not say their real names when they met outsiders, plus their intimacy that day...

Xu Yali felt as if she had guessed the truth.

"Then you two?"

Gu Caiwei hesitated for a moment, she had just remembered that Lin Yi had reminded her not to tell Xu Yali about their relationship, but she had already found out so far, and she was not very good at lying.

After thinking about it, she still felt that Lin Yi was just worrying. She had been with Xu Yali day and night for a year, and she already regarded this little Huya as a good friend second only to Zhang Jiaqi. It shouldn't be a problem to share a little secret, right?

Thinking of this, she finally made up her mind: "Actually, he is my boyfriend."

Although she had already guessed it in advance, when Gu Caiwei admitted it herself, Xu Yali was so surprised that her pupils dilated.

Gu Caiwei, the top trainee that Peng Yuchen and An Ran valued very much, and the idol of the reserve girl group who is preparing to debut in a few months, actually has an underground boyfriend?

By the way, she said that the cup was a birthday present from the other party the year before, which meant that they had been together for at least one year!

Although Gu Caiwei's tone didn't sound like a joke at all, and she wasn't a joker before, Xu Yali still confirmed one more thing:

"Aren't you kidding me, this year's April Fool's Day has passed?"

"of course not."

Since Gu Caiwei has already admitted it, she introduced their situation generously: "Lin Yi is my high school classmate, and we got together at the end of the second year of high school."

"Originally we made an appointment to go to the capital together, but because I failed the college entrance examination, I had to come to Rongcheng."

No wonder she didn't see any clues before, Xu Yali remembered that he only showed up on the night of her birthday: "So he is not usually in Rongcheng?"

Gu Caiwei nodded: "Yes, he came here specially to celebrate my birthday, and then flew back that night."

Thinking of her performance today, Xu Yali naturally had an answer: "Then you are in such a good mood today because of this Lin Yi?"

"Yes!"

Gu Caiwei said excitedly: "Lin Yi said that he will be able to visit me again soon!"

She said this with a little happiness, but Xu Yali didn't care to listen to the little emotions in her words at the moment.

After she was shocked, she just felt absurd. With Xu Yali's appearance from the past to now, of course there is no shortage of people to pursue, but for her own dream, she refused them all without hesitation.

What's going on with Gu Caiwei, can she be a girl idol like this?

What followed was anger and grievance.

If this is the case, why do Mr. Peng and Mr. An value Gu Caiwei so much? They obviously paid much more for their dreams than her, don't they!

During this period of time, I was so anxious about the second round of selection that I couldn't sleep. Teacher An repeatedly put pressure on myself, but it seemed that I didn't know what else to do except practice hard every day.
