Does Chapter 1039 still count?
The security guard turned around and went into the hotel without paying any attention. He was fired by the eldest lady and couldn't even enter the hotel, but he still thought he was the boss.
Mr. Wang got up cursing, and limped towards his car while enduring the pain, only to find that the car had been driven away by his son.
There was a sound of footsteps behind him. After watching the excitement, Zhang Ran turned around and looked towards the hotel.
Xie Wei and Qiu Yu walked out one after the other, and both shook their heads at her.
Qiu Yu leaned in and explained in a low voice: "There are still many guests in the upstairs private room, I don't know who they are."
"A fox will always show its tail." Zhang Ran did not investigate further, got in the car and left, returning to the gold shop.
There were fewer people in the afternoon, and the few employees managed well.
There was a lounge behind the gold shop. Zhang Ran sat on the sofa drinking tea, watching Tian Baozhu and Yang Tao, one sitting in front of the computer to reconcile accounts, and the other holding the invoice and using a calculator to reconcile accounts.
After school started, the gold shop was handed over to Yang Tao, who hired a store manager to assist him. Yang Tao would let go once the store manager became proficient in the job.
On holidays, Tian Baozhu would go to the gold shop to check the accounts, and would also call Shu Xian who was far away in S City to ask about the business status of the gold shop there.
She didn't have time to help Xiaoying and the others with their homework, so she recommended them to other female classmates who were working and studying.
In order to have more time to study, Zhang Ran moved back into the dormitory and returned to the manor during holidays.
Upon learning that Zhang Ran and Tian Baozhu had opened a gold shop together, Qiao Xi took advantage of a day off from school to make an appointment to have dinner with Zhang Ran alone.
Before the dishes were served, Qiao Xi got straight to the point: "We agreed to start a gaming company before, does that still count?"
"Of course it counts." Zhang Ran stood up and skillfully poured boiling water to scald the dishes and chopsticks. "After studying for so long, our skills are almost mature. It's time to open a game company and practice. When we are in our senior year, we will go to our own company for internship and don't have to worry about other people's opinions."
After getting the promise again, Qiao Xi breathed a sigh of relief, "I thought you had forgotten it." Although she has a good family background, her family does not give her start-up funds because she is still in school. It is impossible for her to start a game company by herself relying on her own small treasury. "You studied abroad for a year, and I was not idle either. I found a few like-minded classmates and worked together to design a game. Now I'm just waiting for your nod." The implication is that the only thing missing is money.
"No problem for me." She was the most enthusiastic about making money. "I'll treat them to a meal tomorrow and discuss the details of the cooperation."
Qiao Xi smiled and said, "There is a nice office building. I'll take you to have a look after dinner. If you have no objection, I'll contact the landlord to rent it for our game company."
Usually, bodyguards were not needed at school, so Xie Wei and Qiu Yu took a break. On holidays, the two took turns driving to pick up Zhang Ran.
Qiao Xi and Zhang Ran were having dinner in a small private room.
Xie Wei dined alone in the hall downstairs.
Qiao Xi had never met Xie Wei before. During the meal, she asked curiously, "The man who drove to pick us up is very handsome. Is he your new driver?"
Zhang Ran still had food in his mouth and uttered an unclear "hmm".
Qiao Xi joked, "I thought you had a boyfriend."
Zhang Ran studied abroad for a year, and she pursued Cheng Mingtai for a year, calling and texting him on weekdays, flying back to S City during holidays, inviting him to watch movies and eat, and sending him flowers and gifts. But he always used work as an excuse and rarely kept the appointments.
"I have a boyfriend abroad." Zhang Ran put down his chopsticks, picked up the boiled water and took a sip.
