Chapter 412: Daydreaming

Chapter 412: Daydreaming
Xu Mingyuan said that he wanted to accompany Xiao Yangzhi all the time, but he had his own things to do and could only stay at home as much as possible when he was guaranteed to be fine.

Su Muqing has already negotiated with the R&D team, so Xu Mingyuan must personally take the seniors from the legal department to visit in order to show his sincerity and sign the contract.

The projects that Xu Mingyuan wanted to develop were rather messy, a bit like hitting the target with a hammer here and a stick there.

However, although it seems disorganized, it actually has Xu Mingyuan's considerations. In terms of hardware, such as linear motors, lithium iron phosphate batteries, and necessary circuit stacking, in short, he chooses the most cost-effective and most accurate part in the future.

As for high-tech hardware such as processors, the funds and development cycles required are not something Xu Mingyuan can consider at the moment. He can still do it in a couple of years if he has spare money, but profit is definitely the priority now.

Then there is the Starry Sky mobile phone system. Google had just acquired the early development team of Android, and it would be launched on the market in 08. Xu Mingyuan wanted to be the first to develop it.

Android's early development team had less than seventy people, and the system was very difficult to use, and was once overwhelmed by the Symbian system.

However, the better-performing Symbian system made a short-sighted mistake. It was not open source and was expensive. In just three or four years, its market share was taken over by Android.

The free market is cruel. No matter how big a company is, if it makes a mistake, it will suffer heavy losses if not death.

Just like Bill Gates, the world's richest man this year. Microsoft's stock price is far from reaching its limit, but he still keeps selling his shares and buying land on a large scale after getting the cash.

It's not that he doesn't see that the stocks he holds are more valuable than land. What he is afraid of is that one day a competing company that Microsoft cannot deal with will suddenly appear and destroy the building he has built.

Even if the land depreciates, it will never be worthless. Many wealthy people do this, just to put the money in their pockets.

But Xu Mingyuan doesn't need that. He may make small mistakes, but he will never make big mistakes. His valuable experience is enough for twenty years.

After that, who knows?

Xu Mingyuan may have given up his career a long time ago and devoted himself to having fun with small amounts of money.

……

Xu Mingyuan went to retrieve Xiao Yangzhi's admission letter.

Jiangda has absorbed several universities in Jiangcheng, and it admits more than 10,000 new students every year. For colleges like art, the president does not sign in person.

As Xu Mingyuan's sister, Xiao Yangzhi naturally got the opportunity to get an autograph.

"Here is your acceptance letter."

As soon as Xu Mingyuan entered the door, he threw a red book into Xiao Yangzhi's arms.

"Ok?"

Yang Zhi, who was standing at the door to greet him, was slightly stunned, and quickly opened it to check.

Seeing the photocopy of his head shot on the admission letter, Yang Zhi breathed a sigh of relief.

But she still couldn't let go, so she ran into her room, opened the cabinet, rummaged around for a while, and then pulled out an admission letter.

"Isn't this mine? I thought I had thrown it into the trash can a long time ago. Why is it here with you?"

Seeing Xiao Yangzhi comparing two admission letters, Xu Mingyuan asked with rare surprise.

"Brother, your admission letter was pressed under the textbooks. They were covered with dust while I was reading, so I packed them all up in my room."

Yang Zhi was still the little girl who loved to collect things. When she saw that Xu Mingyuan’s textbooks had been left in the study for a long time, she packed them up and kept them.

You can keep it as a memory for the future, maybe it will be useful sometime, like now.

After carefully comparing the two people's admission letters and checking that there was no difference between them except for their majors and people, Yang Zhi let out a sigh of relief.

"You little girl, are you afraid that I forged a copy?" Xu Mingyuan said with a smile.

"No, brother. How could you lie to me about what you promised? I was just afraid that the school had printed it wrong." Yang Zhi replied seriously.

"How is this possible? You are thinking about such useless things." Xu Mingyuan laughed.

"It's possible. There are so many new students enrolling. There will always be one or two people who make mistakes, right?" Yang Zhi said without daring to jump to conclusions.

"It's a mistake, so it doesn't affect admission." Xu Mingyuan said.

"Yes, I'm too timid." Yang Zhi nodded.

"Knowing that you are timid, why don't you think about changing yourself?" Xu Mingyuan asked with a smile.

"Well... I used to be afraid of sleeping, but now I am not. I have changed a lot, and it will be hard to change again."

Yang Zhi felt a little embarrassed. She knew that this was not a good thing to do, but what could she do if she didn't make sure everything was settled?

My brother said that he developed this disease because he was locked up in a small dark room for a long time when he was a child.

But Yang Zhi didn't think so, because when he was younger, he was always running around outside aimlessly, which was scary. The experience in the rental house was just boring, and it was actually not that bad.

However, my brother said that it was because of boredom that he developed his timid and fearful personality.

But it doesn't matter anymore.

It's already become like this, how much worse can it get?
Although doing so may seem troublesome and a bit annoying, my brother is generous and doesn't care about it. As long as he doesn't hate it, it's fine.

Yang Zhi naturally found an excuse for himself.

"If it's hard to change, don't change it. Just stop thinking about it every day." Xu Mingyuan said.

"I don't daydream. I like to be in a daze." Yang Zhi said with a smile.

"Haha, my dad said he would hold a graduation party for you. What do you think?" Xu Mingyuan asked.

"I don't want to, brother. You didn't do it at the beginning, so what can I do?" Yang Zhi said in a low voice.

"Then you go and talk to him yourself." Xu Mingyuan said with a smile.

"Brother, just go ahead and tell me. You know I don't like being stared at..."

Yang Zhi glanced at Xu Mingyuan, then lowered her head, glanced at him again, and then moved her eyes away.

Xu Mingyuan was amused by her little look. He held her face and shook it, saying with a smile, "I know you don't like it, so I turned it down for you."

"I guessed my brother was teasing me."

Yang Zhi raised the corners of his mouth slightly, looking very proud.

"Hey, how did you guess that?" Xu Mingyuan asked.

"My brother will think of me. Why would he let me embarrass myself by spinning around in circles..." Yang Zhi said with certainty.

"What's shameful about this? You are just too thin-skinned. You should learn more from Taotao. Look how thick-skinned she is?" Xu Mingyuan said with a smile.

"I won't learn it. It's so embarrassing." Yang Zhi said hurriedly, shaking his head.

"Forget about studying. Why don't we go back to Nanxi and stay there for two days?" Xu Mingyuan asked.

"Brother, aren't you going to the company? It's so tiring running back and forth. You don't have a driver, and it must be tiring to drive yourself." Yang Zhi asked caringly.

"You don't have to go these two days. The new mobile phones have been on the market for a while. Being a boss still gives you a lot of freedom." Xu Mingyuan said.

"Okay, let's go back and take a look."

Yang Zhi didn't mind where she stayed, as long as her brother was by her side, it was good enough.

There was a faint smell of perfume in Nanxi's home, but Xu Mingyuan didn't smell it until Xiao Yangzhi told him secretly. It was unknown whether the old father Xu Jun had seen life clearly or understood feelings, but in any case, he probably had no plans to start a family in the short term.

Xu Mingyuan didn't care about these things. After all, he had done the same thing before, so there was nothing to say.

But little Yangzhi couldn't understand. Although every day was the same as usual, Xu Mingyuan could see that she was in a bad mood.

Perhaps it was because Xu Jun had changed so much that little Yangzhi couldn't adapt for a while. After all, what this little girl hoped most was that her life would always remain the same, and it would be best if there were no fluctuations or unexpected accidents.

At the old place of Xiaoqing River, Xiao Yangzhi was busy tying an umbrella on a tree trunk.

Xu Mingyuan took a small stick and cleared the weeds around.

By the time Xu Mingyuan cleared a piece of space, Xiao Yangzhi had already cleaned up the stones that he had moved last time and started laying the mat.

After arranging the snacks and drinks she had brought one by one, Yang Zhi saw that Xu Mingyuan was sweating and sat down under an umbrella to take a rest. She quickly unscrewed a bottle of iced mineral water and handed it to him. She also considerately took out a tissue to wipe the sweat off his face.

Only Xiao Yangzhi, who has a unique way of thinking, could come up with the idea of ​​going out for a picnic in the dog days of summer.

But it was okay under the shade of the trees by the river, not very hot. It was just that Xu Mingyuan had just worked for a while and the sweat couldn't evaporate, so it was a bit stuffy.

Yang Zhi is a girl who is not afraid of heat. The temperature at this moment is just right for her. It is comfortable to be warm like this, and her hands and feet don’t feel cold anymore.

Yang Zhi did not rush into Xu Mingyuan's arms immediately, but followed Xu Mingyuan's example and took off her little white shoes and put them aside. Without much hesitation, she took off her socks, folded them and put them in the shoe bag.

She playfully stretched out her toes, which were as round as pearls, and then curled them up. Seeing that Xu Mingyuan's eyes were indeed on her feet, Yang Zhi rubbed her toes while holding back her laughter.

"Brother, do you want to touch it?"

Yang Zhi bit her lower lip lightly with her pearly teeth, a faint smile played at the corner of her mouth, and she looked straight at him.

"Don't touch it, it stinks."

Xu Mingyuan blushed at the teasing look on her little face and looked away in annoyance.

Yang Zhi bent his toes and brought them close to his nose to smell it, then shook his head in confusion and said with certainty: "Brother, there is no smell. If you don't believe me, try it."

As Yang Zhi spoke, she was about to lift her foot and move closer to Xu Mingyuan's face.

"Hey, you little girl, I think you have grown up, right?"

How could Xu Mingyuan stand Xiao Yangzhi's teasing, so he held her down and tickled her.

Yang Zhi didn't have any ticklish spots, but she couldn't help but giggle. Then she took the opportunity to dive into Xu Mingyuan's arms, curled up in his arms and continued to shake and struggle.

It would be too hot if they continued to make noise, so Xu Mingyuan didn't play with Xiao Yangzhi for too long and just held her still.

Seeing Xu Mingyuan quietly raising his hand to smell it, Yang Zhi wanted to laugh, but she still held her mouth tightly and asked, "Brother, am I right? There is no smell at all..."

"Ah."

Xu Mingyuan was both pleased and helpless about this little girl who had grown up.

The once well-behaved little Yangzhi has now become a little naughty and has even learned to tease him.

But Xiao Yangzhi's change is always a good thing. At least she has become more down-to-earth now. She no longer hides her emotional changes in her heart and is becoming more and more like a normal little girl.

"Sister Taotao is the one who has the flavor. She can run and jump every day, and her feet have a sour smell."

Even though Tao Shuxin was far away, Yang Zhi still vaguely nodded at her, in order to achieve the purpose of belittling Tao Tao and elevating himself.

Xu Mingyuan just wanted to laugh at her little thought, but he still asked: "Really? How did you know?"

"My nose is very clever..." Yang Zhi raised her head casually, wanting to see his reaction, and then asked with eyes wide open: "Brother, you don't like this, do you?"

"Tsk, what nonsense are you talking about, little girl?" Xu Mingyuan said speechlessly.

"I don't want to become like Sister Tao Tao... Eh~"

Yang Zhi's pretty eyebrows were all twisted into a knot. She loved cleanliness so much that she didn't want to learn from Tao Shuxin.

"Haha, you're not done yet, are you?"

Xu Mingyuan could see that Xiao Yangzhi was in a bad mood today.

But she didn't want to disturb Xu Mingyuan's mood because of her own fault, so she did it on purpose to make him happy.

"Hahahaha...Brother! I was wrong, I was really wrong..."

Yang Zhi tossed and turned, and after this time, he finally behaved himself.

After being in a daze for a while, Xu Mingyuan saw that Xiao Yangzhi had calmed down again. He asked, "What happened? Is it because of my dad?"

"Well, Dad has changed his girlfriend again. The one I discovered is his third one..." Yang Zhi said in a low voice.

Ever since the two of them opened their hearts to each other, although Yang Zhi wanted to keep some things secret in her heart, as long as Xu Mingyuan asked, she would not hide anything and would tell him directly.

"Why are you worrying about this? My dad is already 45 or 46 years old. He knows everything. Just let him be." Xu Mingyuan said casually.

"Brother, I'm scared. What should I do if you become like this?"

Yang Zhi raised his head, a hint of worry in his clear eyes.

"How is that possible? I'm too lazy to mess around outside." Xu Mingyuan said with a smile.

"People change. Dad used to be very devoted, but he has changed now. Brother, if you have someone else outside, um... can you not bring the child home? I have a weak personality and will definitely be bullied..."

Yang Zhi sighed softly, looking into the distance with a deep and lingering sorrow in his eyes.

"No, haha, do you believe it? In fact, I have already passed this stage. Now I just want to live a stable life."

"Brother, of course I believe what you say." Yang Zhi nodded vigorously, then became a little discouraged and whispered, "I'm just timid and suspicious, I'm sorry..."

"It's okay. Everyone has wild thoughts. You're not an exception. Sometimes I think about these things too," said Xu Mingyuan.

"Ah."

Yang Zhi responded, took some ice water from the side and took a sip.

The ice in the bottle had not completely melted yet. Yang Zhi was not used to this temperature, but she did not drink it all. Instead, she raised her head and poured it all into Xu Mingyuan's mouth.

The breeze carried the water vapor from the river mixed with the fresh smell of leaves.

Yang Zhi suggested going out for a walk today, but she was worried that Xu Mingyuan couldn't stay at home.

Although the bushes were dense and there were weeds growing around, Yang Zhi still felt a little uncomfortable staying outside, as if the wind was blowing everywhere.

"Brother, let's go back to Jiangcheng."

Suddenly, Yang Zhi said something in a low voice.

"You've only been at home for one day, and you can't stay here anymore?" Xu Mingyuan asked.

"We often have guests at home. I don't want to stay here anymore. I just want to be alone with my brother..."

Yang Zhi looked at him with clear eyes, knowing that her brother would agree to her request...
