Chapter 339: A Little Convenience

It is common to say that girls change a lot when they grow up. But what about little Yang Zhi? Her appearance hasn't changed much.

The biggest change in her appearance is that she has changed from a ponytail with bangs in junior high school to a bald bun on her forehead. Her face is not as youthful anymore, but her height and chest have not changed much.

Of course, it may also be because they have been together for so long that Xu Mingyuan doesn’t notice these details.

However, Xu Mingyuan found that Xiao Yangzhi's personality had improved a lot.

Although she didn't become very cheerful, she wasn't as dull as before. I didn't know what she was like outside, but at least she would sometimes smile actively in front of him.

Although the forced smile seems silly, I am truly changing myself.

Not only that, you can occasionally hear her humming a tune, her voice is soft, shallow, light and pleasant to the ear.

All the changes in Xiao Yangzhi showed that she was moving in a good direction. Xu Mingyuan saw it and breathed a sigh of relief.

The newly built Star Sky Technology once became one of the largest high-tech companies in Jiangcheng, without a doubt.

Unlike Xu Mingyuan who only does planning, as the face of Star Technology, Xu Jun is getting busier and busier. He is a busy man who can hardly squeeze out time for rest.

In a program on Haizhou TV, Xu Mingyuan saw that his father was not only at the top of the list of people invited to be interviewed, but was also held hand by the leaders of Jiangcheng for a cordial conversation.

Three years ago, Xu Jun was desperate and had to resort to stealing cables. Now he has become the face of a star enterprise in Jiangcheng.

Xu Mingyuan could not understand the psychology of his adoptive father, but this huge gap was definitely not as calm as he appeared to appear.

Xiao Yangzhi secretly told Xu Mingyuan that Xu Jun sometimes came home at night and sat in front of the tea table without saying a word.

When Xiao Yangzhi got up and went to school the next day, she saw him sitting in the same seat, with the ashtray on the table piled with empty cigarette butts, like a small mountain.

Little Yangzhi loves her stepfather who treats her very well and is a good daughter who cares about her even more than Xu Mingyuan, her biological son.

However, when Xiao Yangzhi asked privately what to do, Xu Mingyuan just told her not to worry about it.

In Xu Mingyuan's vague memory, his father was a second-generation rich man who loved to play. He was not serious all day long and caused his old man a lot of worry.

Later, when Xu Jun had an accident, the old man completely quit his career and devoted himself to teaching Xu Mingyuan and raising his grandson to adulthood.

Perhaps the Xu family was being treated with great favor at this time and their social status was rising rapidly. In the eyes of Xu Jun, a veteran rich second-generation, it was just a recovery from the bottom of decline to its former glory.

But after experiencing so many ups and downs, Xu Jun's state of mind must have changed.

Xu Mingyuan also felt the same way.

However, what he had experienced was certainly not as profound as the impression his father Xu Jun had on the family as he watched it decline bit by bit and eventually become irreparable.

There are wolves outside, lurking covetously; there are termites inside, draining away the family's wealth.

Xu Mingyuan had never experienced anything that Xu Jun had experienced.

The old man taught his son and grandson in two different ways.

As for his son Xu Jun, the old man lets him have fun, but he shouldn't think about making a career. He should just be a rich young man and he doesn't have to worry about the future.

And what about Xu Mingyuan, the grandson?

Xu Mingyuan was not allowed to play around and even his pocket money was very strict. But after Xu Mingyuan expressed his desire to start a business, the old man swallowed his pride and supported him.

Two different lives, leading to different results.

But no matter how many reasons Xu Jun had, Xu Mingyuan couldn't have much empathy. His feelings for his father were basically derived from the affection given by the old man's generation.

In this regard, Xu Mingyuan did not allow his father to participate in the company's decision-making, and only retained the honorary title of chairman. At most, he was allowed to go to the workshop to supervise production, which was familiar to him and would not affect the management power of the company's development.

Xu Mingyuan and the old man had basically the same idea. They were not afraid of Xu Jun's indulgence in eating, drinking and having fun, but they were afraid that he would suddenly become motivated.

Maybe Xu Jun himself was very clear about it, or maybe his experiences over the years had smoothed out his edges, so he never made any requests to Xu Mingyuan.

Just like the old man had instructed, Xu Mingyuan, as his son, told him what to do. Xu Jun probably accepted his fate and no longer had the will to fight for it.

However, Xu Mingyuan still had the proper respect for his father, even a little too polite, and sometimes he even needed Xiao Yangzhi to pass on some words as a buffer between father and son.

There is still some time before the Chinese New Year, but this year is different from the past, or it has returned to the past. The number of people visiting the Xu family cannot be said to be endless, but there are people coming almost every day.

A rich man has distant relatives even if he lives in a remote mountain area. The Xu family has few relatives to begin with, but there are still some distant relatives who want to come and build relationships with them.

There are some people Xu Mingyuan has never heard of in his entire life, but Xu Jun probably knows them after so many years of living together. However, he has a lot of social engagements and has no time to pay attention to these people.

Xu Mingyuan got annoyed, so he called the property management and told them that they would not open the door to anyone they knew, otherwise they would not be allowed to collect the property management fee for next year.

But even so, some friends of the owners in the same community were still able to enter the community. In this regard, Xu Mingyuan had to tell the aunt that no one was home and that if they wanted to stay outside in the cold, they could stay there and the door would not be opened for them no matter what.

But it’s okay, this year is finally a lively year, not as deserted as previous years.

After hanging out with Tao Shuxin in Jiangcheng for a few days, Xu Mingyuan returned to Nanxi and made up an excuse that he was too tired, and hid at home.

Besides, the cold wind was blowing outside, and Xu Mingyuan really didn't want to go out and wander around.

This is the downside of a big house. If you add a basement on the first and second floors, all the necessary items will have their proper places.

This makes the lobby on the third floor look very empty. There is nothing to place except sofas and a long table. It is just arranged as much as possible to look like the former family housing, but it is not practical. You have to go downstairs to eat and watch TV.

Early in the morning, Xu Mingyuan heard Xiao Yangzhi making a ding-dong sound outside the house, fiddling with something.

Occasionally, he could hear Aunt Liang's voice, but the solid wooden door was too soundproof and Xu Mingyuan couldn't hear clearly what she was saying.

Xu Mingyuan didn't bother to care what Xiao Yangzhi was doing and continued to sleep in with the fragrant quilt.

In fact, holding Xiao Yangzhi is far less comfortable than holding Tao Shuxin.

Even Xu Mingyuan felt that hugging Xiao Yangzhi was not as good as hugging a quilt.

She acted quiet and well-behaved every day, but she did a lot of small things in private, which made Xu Mingyuan scared.

Not long after, when Xu Mingyuan was confused, the door opened quietly.

Seeing Xu Mingyuan open his eyes, Yang Zhi leaned over the door and said softly, "Brother, aren't you going to get up and eat? I've brought the food upstairs, come out and eat something?"

"Okay, have you eaten yet?"

Xu Mingyuan lifted the quilt and rubbed his face to make himself more awake.

"not yet."

"Okay, you're on vacation, why are you getting up so early? Why don't you take a rest for a while?" Xu Mingyuan asked with a yawn.

"I'm used to getting up early, and I can't fall asleep after waking up."

Yang Zhi just stared at Xu Mingyuan blankly, wondering when he would get up.

"You go eat first, I'll come right after I wash my face."

"Oh."

Yang Zhi nodded and walked out, but did not close the door tightly, carefully leaving a gap.

After Xu Mingyuan finished washing up, he came out and felt that the furnishings in the living room seemed to have changed.

There is a long table placed across the wall, with a computer on it.

"Why did you move the computer out? Don't you need it?"

"I don't need it. I haven't even turned on the computer since I bought it. Brother, if you want to play games today, come out and play."

"Why?"

"It's more convenient..."

"is it?"

Xu Mingyuan looked puzzled, but since Xiao Yangzhi always had strange ideas in her mind, he didn't delve into it further.
