Chapter 350 Only Good Looks Left

In fact, given Yang Zhi's growth experience, she never cared whether Xu Mingyuan's feelings for her were sincere and loyal.

As long as Xu Mingyuan treats her best, it doesn't matter if he finds ten thousand girls outside.

But if Xu Mingyuan really did that, he would have less time to spend with her, which was something Yang Zhi could not accept no matter what.

So in the end we are back to square one.

Yang Zhi felt that it would be best if she was the only one around her brother. It would be even better if Tao Shuxin was kicked away, so that they could sit together and daydream every day.

Taking advantage of the warming weather and the day when the construction site is about to start, the plastic steel family building was demolished in advance.

In his previous life, Xu Mingyuan never cared when the houses here would be demolished or whether they were demolished or not.

He was living a carefree life at school when the plastic steel family building was demolished, and his family moved to a self-built house in the eastern suburbs when he went to college.

Perhaps because of Xiao Yangzhi, Xu Mingyuan especially wanted to come over and take another look at this old building that was about to disappear in history.

"Xu boy, are you here to watch the fun?"

"Hey, Uncle Zhang, you're still in good health. You're still going out for a walk on such a windy day."

Suddenly someone patted his shoulder. Xu Mingyuan turned around and saw that it was an old man who lived nearby, so he smiled and greeted him.

"Go out and move around. Where did your family move to?"

"Moved to Xiaoqing River." Xu Mingyuan said.

"You moved so far away, is this your sister? She has grown so big."

Seeing the little girl holding Xu Mingyuan's arm, the white-haired old Zhang asked.

"Yes, the college entrance examination is coming soon." Xu Mingyuan said with a smile.

"Hello, Grandpa Zhang."

There was no need for Xu Mingyuan to remind her now. Yang Zhi, with half of her face hidden in her scarf, politely greeted her.

The urban population that had lived through the last century was not as unfamiliar as it was later, where no one knew each other. Many residents of the plastic steel family building were employees of the same factory back then, and basically all knew Xu Mingyuan.

However, with the development of cities, the acquaintance society has gradually disappeared, and it is rarely seen outside the countryside.

After chatting for a while, the old man asked about the situation on Xu Jun's side. Seeing that it involved Xiao Yangzhi, Xu Mingyuan found an excuse and took her away.

Yang Zhi looked back at the clanging demolition machine, her expression a little dazed, but she was much better than before and did not cling to Xu Mingyuan.

Since 01, urban construction has been changing with each passing day. It has changed in almost the blink of an eye.

Two years ago, Xu Mingyuan and Xiao Yangzhi went for a walk around the night markets on two adjacent streets. I remember that the night markets were about to be demolished, and not many people went there after more than ten years.

Just last year, the newly planned residential area was completed, and even the foundation of the 33-story apartment where Xu Mingyuan lives has been laid, waiting to be topped out next year.

The current Nanxi City is the Nanxi that Xu Mingyuan is most familiar with.

In another three or four years, Xu Mingyuan will be familiar with all the landmarks of Nanxi.

Xu Mingyuan never thought of himself as a nostalgic person, but after experiencing it again, he suddenly felt a sense of inexplicable disgust.

Maybe they were influenced by Xiao Taotao. Young people of this era are always whining and sentimental. Otherwise, how could the non-mainstream Gothic style have such a broad market nowadays?

Xiao Yangzhi is about to start school, and Xu Mingyuan also has to focus his energy on Jiangcheng.

We happened to meet during this winter vacation, so I spent a lot more time with her.

However, little Yangzhi was no longer as obedient as before after being with him for a while. Instead, she became even more clingy, as if she couldn't be gotten rid of.

After Xu Jun asked someone to arrange for Xiao Yangzhi to take the college entrance examination early, she only had less than four months left until the day of the exam.

Xu Mingyuan is still troubled by the decision that Xiao Yangzhi made secretly.

To be honest, I really don't want her to pass the exam.

Although the teacher had some complaints, thinking that Yang Zhi taking the college entrance examination early was a waste of a promising student, he just wanted to give her a gift, which was not a big deal.

But Tao Shuxin also believes that Xiao Yangzhi will only be in her third year of high school in the second half of this year.

How should Xu Mingyuan explain this? Could it be that being good at studying is useless and that she should go to college early to have fun?
In the end, Xu Mingyuan had to take the blame for what Xiao Yangzhi had thrown at him.

It seemed that school was about to start, and Xiao Yangzhi wanted to show off, so she was particularly willing to exercise today. Xu Mingyuan was planning to find a restaurant to eat, but she was still happy to hold his arm and walk forward, apparently wanting to walk until she was tired, and never mentioned going out shopping again. "Brother, is this store the sister you met before?"

Yang Zhi pointed to a dried fruit shop and asked, "Ah? Hey, how did you know she was here?"

Seeing the name on the sign was Yipinxiang Peanuts and Sunflower Seeds, Xu Mingyuan was stunned and turned to look at Xiao Yangzhi beside him.

Yang Zhi hid her head in her scarf, revealing only her eyes, and said timidly: "Sister Taotao told me that day..."

"What do you mean? Did she instigate you to come for investigation?" Xu Mingyuan asked.

"No, I wanted to be closer to this side, so I wanted to see what she looks like..."

Yang Zhi lowered his head after he finished speaking.

Xu Mingyuan's words could fool Tao Shuxin, but not Yang Zhi. How could he admit that he was her boyfriend just to help her? He cared so much about his reputation, how could he throw dirty water on himself...

"Alas, she is not as pretty as you. What on earth are you thinking about every day?"

Yang Zhi thought she was going to get hit on the head, so she cowered in anticipation of the attack, but Xu Mingyuan just touched her face without even giving it a pinch.

Xu Mingyuan didn't expect that Xiao Yangzhi had walked for such a long time just to see his rumored ex-girlfriend. At this moment, he felt both amused and helpless about this little girl who was always unsure of herself.

It’s mainly Xu Mingyuan’s fault. He was such a bastard. He took Tao Shuxin to play around intimately in front of her all day long. It’s strange that Xiao Yangzhi could feel at ease.

"Brother, let's go home and eat, and not watch it."

Since she is not as pretty as me, it doesn’t matter whether you look at her or not. I have no abilities, so I’m just pretty.

"Let's go buy a bag of sunflower seeds and eat them at home. The sunflower seeds at her shop are quite delicious. Come on, now that you're here, why are you unwilling to eat them?"

Xu Mingyuan pulled little Yangzhi as she moved step by step, but if he didn't let her take a look, he would always feel uneasy in his heart and might ask her again someday.

"Brother, I don't want to watch..."

"Alright, alright, stop talking. I know you better than you think."

"..."

Yang Zhi didn't explain after hearing this, but she kept muttering in her heart: You know me so well, and you still want me to take the initiative, how dare I...

Central Street is very close to the Nanxi Commercial District which is about to be built. Once the plastic steel residential buildings are demolished and rebuilt, the prices here will increase again.

Long before, when Sun Hongwei's family asked where was the best place to buy a store, Xu Mingyuan recommended this place.

His family bought the property early, two years ago, on this street. Although the housing prices had already gone up when Lin Jing asked, they were far from reaching the limit.

This is the benefit of knowing Xu Mingyuan. Whenever someone asks how to make money, he will simply and clearly tell them to take out a loan and buy a house or a store as soon as possible. Some classmates in the group thought he was going to work in real estate.

There are very few ways for ordinary people to make money. Most people have never done business and want a stable life. In order to avoid trouble, Xu Mingyuan did not recommend any other industries except buying a house to take advantage of the times.

The same goes for Lin Jing. Although she is smart, her family is still ordinary people. Currently, buying a store is the best way out.

It seems that Lin Jing listened to him and asked her family to take out a full loan to buy a 200-square-meter store on two floors.

It would be a waste to use only the first floor as a dried fruit store, so half of the area was divided to make a retail store.

At this time, Lin Jing was sitting in front of the counter, eating melon seeds and reading a book.

"Give me a pound of melon seeds, original flavor."

Xu Mingyuan took Xiao Yangzhi by the hand and walked to the counter and knocked on the glass counter.

"Go over there to buy some melon seeds." Lin Jing said without even raising her head.

"Modern Mathematical Statistics and Its Applications? It's in English. Amazing! You are a science major. You read a very advanced book."

Xu Mingyuan pulled the cover of the book in her hand and said casually.

"Hey, who is this? Isn't this Boss Xu? What brings you here? I have to go burn some incense. Please wait for a moment. I'll be right there."

The wooden stool was kicked over with a 'bang'. Lin Jing took out a stick of incense from the cupboard and ran to the God of Wealth. She lit it and inserted it into the small incense ash burner. She bowed solemnly and muttered something like a mantra. After a long time, no one could hear what she was saying.

"See? This guy is completely crazy." Xu Mingyuan touched Xiao Yangzhi and said.

"Oh……"

Yang Zhi nodded, stretched out her hand to pull her scarf down, revealing her pretty face.
