Chapter 1255 Xiao Qianxi's Request, Zhou Chen Returns

2003 is a special year, because there will be many major world events in this year.

Zhou Chen, who has seen all this clearly, naturally has his own plan and is ready to expand his business territory with some opportunities.

So, he delayed his return to China again this time.

After Wang Ying learned about it, although she felt disappointed, she could understand Zhou Chen's helplessness. After all, as a big boss, Zhou Chen had to personally deal with many things. After all, it was not as timely to handle them in person abroad as to manipulate them in China.

As for the school, it would not put any pressure on Zhou Chen at all. Not to mention his grades, Zhou Chen also brought a lot of benefits to the school. Even if Zhou Chen did not come back to class, the school would not embarrass him.

Qin Chuan was very disappointed to learn that Zhou Chen did not know when he would come back.

He asked Wang Ying: "If he doesn't come back, what will happen to our branch?"

Wang Ying looked indifferent: "I have already asked my uncle to find a storefront. Whether he comes back or not, it will not affect the branch. You can plan to start decorating."

"That's good."

Qin Chuan was relieved immediately. He was afraid that their new store would have problems because Zhou Chen didn't come back. Fortunately, Wang Ying was very supportive.

"Wang Ying, you are awesome. Zhou Chen can make money, but I think your courage is not much worse than his."

Wang Ying said angrily: "Forget it, he is talking about a big business of millions or tens of millions, and your pancake stall is only a small business of tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands. Do you need courage for this?"

Qin Chuan was unhappy: "Wang Ying, don't look down on our pancake business. When we started, you didn't think we could open a store, but now we have opened it. With this one, we can have a second one. Now we can't flatter Zhou Chen, but we can't say for sure in the future. Let's wait and see."

"Don't sit and watch. Even if you stand, lie down, or squat, it's just a pancake shop. You haven't even opened the first store yet, but you're thinking about the second and third ones. I advise you not to be too ambitious."

Although the pancake stall does make money now, she still doesn't think their pancake shop will have much development prospects in the future. It's not that she looks down on people.

The main thing is that this pancake business really doesn't require much technical content, and the profit is also visible. The most important thing is that it is difficult to increase the volume.

Maybe the store can make money, but in her opinion, it is impossible to make a lot of money.

"Hey, hey, Wang Ying, I found out that you have been with Zhou Chen for a long time, and you have even learned his venomous tongue. Although you used to be aloof, you are not so poor."

"Am I poor?"

"Poor, I am just like Zhou Chen."

"Really?"

Wang Ying was a little self-doubting. Did she really get close to Zhou Chen?

Qin Chuan said: "I won't talk to you about these things. Since the store has been found, let's start decorating and try to open the store as soon as possible."

"You are so far away in Shunyi, how can you have time to watch the decoration every day?"

"Find someone to install it. Besides, I will come here on Friday, spend two days on the weekend, and go back on Monday. Anyway, I have a car and can come quickly if there is an emergency."

Qin Chuan is full of enthusiasm for the pancake store. He can afford a car and live better than before, but it depends on these pancakes, so he must do it well.

"Okay, do it as you say. If I have time, I can also watch it."

Wang Ying was too lazy to worry about it. Zhou Chen was not here, and she still had a lot of free time. It was no problem to spare some time for study.

Time came to March, and Qin Chuan's pancake store had been renovated for almost a month. He would watch it on time every week, and the progress was also very good.

Wang Ying went to class every day and took some time every week to go to the pancake shop. She said she was not optimistic, but she was just a typical person who was soft-hearted. She would go to have a look when she had time.

That night, Wang Ying was sitting at the table reading a book seriously when her cell phone suddenly rang. After answering it for a while, she suddenly let out a surprised scream.

This sudden shout scared Xu Lin, who was reading a comic book, so much that he dropped the book. Xiao Qianxi and Xie Qiao were also startled.

Xu Lin yelled in dissatisfaction: "Miss, what are you doing? You're so startled. You scared me."

Wang Ying hung up the phone happily and said with a beaming face: "Zhou Chen is ready to board the plane. He will land before noon tomorrow. Xu Lin, I won't go to class tomorrow. If the teacher calls the roll, please help me to be there."

"Miss, Zhou Chen is coming back. Look how excited you are. Are you unable to live without him, or what?"

"Go to hell. We haven't seen each other for more than a month. Forget it. I can't explain it to you who are single."

Wang Ying sat down happily again, but she couldn't concentrate on the knowledge in the book at this time.

She and Zhou Chen had indeed not seen each other for more than a month. She missed him very much. Thinking that she would see Zhou Chen tomorrow and touch him, she couldn't calm down at all.

Xiao Qianxi could understand Wang Ying's feelings: "Didn't you say before that Zhou Chen would not come back in the short term? Why did he come back suddenly?"

Wang Ying replied: "I didn't ask. It's not important. What's important is that he is coming back."

"Look at her grinning face. I bet she won't be able to sleep tonight."

Xu Lin's words made Xie Qiao nod in agreement: "I think so too. Now that Zhou Chen is back, our Miss Wang Ying will often stay out all night again."

"Oh my, Qiao Qiao, you still understand her." Xu Lin squeezed his eyes hard, with a teasing look on his face.

Wang Ying didn't care about their teasing at all, or she had gotten used to it in the past few months. At the beginning, she was still embarrassed, but after a long time, she really didn't care at all.

She couldn't read the book, so she didn't force herself and went back to her bed to lie down.

Xiao Qianxi looked at Wang Ying and wanted to say something, but seeing that Xie Qiao and Xu Lin were there, she finally didn't open her mouth.

After a while, Xie Qiao wanted to go to the bathroom, so she pulled Xu Lin to go with her.

Seeing that she and Wang Ying were the only ones left in the room, Xiao Qianxi couldn't help it anymore. She put down the book, sat on Xie Qiao's bed, facing Wang Ying, but hesitated for half a minute and didn't open her mouth.

However, Wang Ying had already noticed her. Wang Ying, who was very perceptive, immediately understood that Xiao Qianxi might have something to say, but was too embarrassed to say it.

So she took the initiative to ask: "Qianxi, do you have something to say? If you have something to say, don't be shy, tell me, maybe I can help."

Wang Ying's words immediately made Xiao Qianxi feel relieved. She was a person with low self-esteem and strong will, especially when she needed help from others, it was really difficult for her to speak up.

"I'm sorry, Wang Ying, I do have something I want to ask you for help."

"What is it? You tell me, as long as I can help, I will definitely help."

Wang Ying answered very straightforwardly. She naturally knew Xiao Qianxi's character. Xiao Qianxi must have been struggling for a long time to speak up.

Wang Ying's words also made Xiao Qianxi calm down, and she slowly said it out.

"It's not my business. I want you to ask Zhou Chen. Last year, he said he could help Xiaozhou go abroad to study at Stanford University, but Xiaozhou didn't reply at that time. Now Xiaozhou is already a junior, and now he can start to consider studying abroad. So I want you to ask Zhou Chen for me. He said he could help Xiaozhou before, can he still help now?"

Wang Ying looked surprised: "Is there such a thing? Okay, I'll ask him for you, but if he said this, based on my understanding of him, there is probably no problem. Your He Xiaozhou works so hard, it shouldn't be difficult for him to take the TOEFL or something like that."

Seeing that Wang Ying agreed without hesitation, Xiao Qianxi was overjoyed and rushed over to grab Wang Ying's hand, shaking it vigorously, and was very grateful.

"Wang Ying, thank you, thank you so much."

Wang Ying smiled and said, "Okay, I'm just asking for you, it's not a big deal, but have you really thought about it? If He Xiaozhou goes abroad to study, you won't be able to see each other every day anymore, are you willing to do that?"

Xiao Qianxi's face flashed with a trace of entanglement, but soon he said firmly, "I'm willing to do that, for our future, I must be willing to do that, the opportunity to go abroad is rare, and it's a world-renowned university like Stanford University, I don't want Xiaozhou to miss this opportunity."

Wang Ying looked at Xiao Qianxi's firm tone, sighed in her heart, and couldn't help but admire Xiao Qianxi a little. If it were her and Zhou Chen, she would really be reluctant to do that.

After all, He Xiaozhou and Xiao Qianxi are different from her and Zhou Chen. Their financial situation cannot support them to travel back and forth frequently at home and abroad. Once they go abroad, they may not see each other for half a year or even a year.

If it were her, she would rather not go abroad to study, or go together with Zhou Chen if she and Zhou Chen didn't see each other for half a year or a year.

"I'll ask Zhou Chen, Qianxi, don't worry, there will be no problem."

Xiao Qianxi said gratefully: "Thank you, but I haven't told Xiao Zhou about this matter yet, I'm afraid he..."

Wang Ying held Xiao Qianxi's hand and said softly: "I understand, I understand your concerns, don't worry, I will let Zhou Chen take the initiative to ask Xiao Zhou, and I won't make it difficult for you."

"Wang Ying, I really don't know how to thank you and Zhou Chen. Whether this thing succeeds or not, I will remember your kindness."

"It's not that serious, what kindness or not, we are all friends, why Xiao Zhou and Zhou Chen are childhood friends. Even if you don't tell them, Zhou Chen will definitely help. I know him. He is kind-hearted and loyal. He will help his friends if he can. "

"And Xie Qiao and the others..."

"Don't worry, I won't tell them. I'm very tight-lipped."

"Thank you, Wang Ying."

"You've said thank you so many times in the past few minutes. We are good friends. It's too formal. Okay, adjust your mood. Qiao Qiao and the others will be back soon."

Xiao Qianxi immediately adjusted his facial expression and wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes.

…………

"Wang Ying!"

"Zhou Chen!"

The two who had been apart for a long time looked at each other and hugged each other tightly.

Such behavior is not uncommon when picking up people at the airport, so passers-by looked at them with kind eyes.

After hugging for a long time, the two let go, and Zhou Chen touched Wang Ying's cheek.

"I haven't seen you for more than a month. You've lost weight, and the baby fat on your face is gone."

Wang Ying immediately complained in dissatisfaction: "You are the one with baby fat, I'm not thin either, I gained a few pounds during the Chinese New Year, and I finally lost weight recently."

Zhou Chen chuckled: "My girlfriend is the best-looking no matter whether she is thin or fat."

"As for you, let's go. Let's send your luggage back first. I've also had my house cleaned and ventilated, and the sheets and bedding have been replaced with new ones."

"Okay, new year and new atmosphere, let's go home."

"Well, go home."

The two returned to the community by car. Wang Ying sent her driver away and happily went upstairs with Zhou Chen.

As soon as the door opened, Wang Ying walked around the room, pointed at the room and said, "See if you like it."

Zhou Chen looked around and found that the background wall of the living room had been redone, a large LCD TV had been placed, and other changes had been made.

"How's it going? Does it feel a little more like a family?"

Zhou Chen nodded: "Well, did you do all this?"

"Of course, who else could it be but me? I did this all by myself, with my hands and feet."

Wang Ying looked like she was about to praise me. Zhou Chen did as she wished and praised with a smile: "It's really amazing."

After saying that, she hugged her face and kissed her hard. Wang Ying also took advantage of the situation and hugged Zhou Chen again.

Originally, this house was used by Zhou Chen as a temporary residence, and it was not carefully decorated. After Wang Ying's decoration, it did feel a little more homely and warm.

After being gentle for a while, Zhou Chen took out the things he brought back. Many of them were bought for Wang Ying, such as snacks, new mobile phones, new computers, etc.

Wang Ying accepted it very happily.

Wang Ying can actually get these things if she wants them, but the feeling of buying them by herself is different from Zhou Chen buying them for her.

On this day, Wang Ying didn't want to be separated from Zhou Chen. The two simply cleaned up and went out to eat together. Then they went shopping, watched movies, drank milk tea together, played game consoles and caught dolls...

They played until about nine o'clock in the evening before they went home to rest.

The first night after a long separation was naturally a moment when they needed each other. They had endless things to say, and they also released themselves to their heart's content...

Early the next morning, Zhou Chen and Wang Ying went to school refreshed. Today Zhou Chen had to register at school, while Wang Ying had classes.

In the car, Wang Ying was doing the same simple makeup in front of the mirror as before, and talking to Zhou Chen about recent events.

"The branch Qin Chuan mentioned has already started to be renovated. Don't tell me, he is really proactive. If he hadn't been too busy with his studies, I guess he would have wished to sleep in it every day and renovate it. He also wished he could have renovated it earlier and started selling it earlier. Pancakes.”

Zhou Chen said with a smile: "Qin Chuan, if you ask him to study, he will be full of lawsuits, but if you ask him to do business, even if he does not make money, he will be very enthusiastic, but it is precisely because of people like him Only with enthusiasm can he start his pancake stall, and now it has expanded and started to open branches. "

"He is so confident now that he wants to target you and catch up with you."

"Really? Then when I see him, I really have to ask him how he can counterattack me with just this little pancake stand."

After simply putting on makeup, Wang Ying looked in the mirror and felt satisfied, so she put away the cosmetics.

Thinking of Xiao Qianxi's request the night before yesterday, she straightened her expression and said, "The night before yesterday, Qianxi told me something and asked me to ask you about He Xiaozhou's study abroad at Stanford University. He said that you once talked to He Xiaozhou I said you could help him study abroad at Stanford University, right?"

Zhou Chen nodded and replied: "Yes, this is indeed what I said, but it has been almost a year, and Xiaozhou has not replied to me. You said this is what Xiao Qianxi told you, hers It means I want He Xiaozhou to study abroad at Stanford."

"That's what I heard from her, but she just asked me for help privately, without consulting He Xiaozhou. To be honest, I really think it's not easy for the two of them. If you can help, please help them. "Wang Ying took the initiative to speak for Xiao Qianxi.

Zhou Chen said: "I understand what she means. He Xiaozhou is embarrassed to tell me and doesn't want to trouble me, but since I said it, I will definitely help if I can. Just say this to Xiao Qianxi when you go back. It's okay for He Xiaozhou to study abroad. , If she also wants to go, as long as she can pass the exam next year, I can help her and send her to Stanford University. "

This is not a difficult problem for him. Capitalism is not about human relations, but more about money, so this kind of thing is easier to handle.

It is indeed not easy for both He Xiaozhou and Xiao Qianxi. Xiao Qianxi's final change in the TV series is indeed a bit sorry for He Xiaozhou, but to be honest, that is the entertainment industry. No matter how simple and determined a person is, if he enters the entertainment industry, I guess everything is out of control.

He Xiaozhou only has Xiao Qianxi in his heart, and Xiao Qianxi is actually about the same. If Xiao Qianxi doesn't get involved in that circle, she and He Xiaozhou may have a good ending.

Of course, this is also Zhou Chen's own guess. Everything in the world is subject to change, and no one dares to predict the outcome until the end.

Wang Ying was very happy after hearing this: "That's great. I will tell Qianxi the good news when I get back later. I think she will definitely not refuse."

Maybe Xiao Qianxi has a strong self-esteem, but on such a major matter, she feels that Xiao Qianxi will definitely not refuse.

"By the way, it's best if you take the initiative to mention this matter to He Xiaozhou. You also know his and Qian Xi's personalities. It's probably impossible for him to take the initiative to talk to you."

"Fine."

Zhou Chen smiled bitterly and said: "What do you think this is? I, a helper, have to take the initiative to come to your door for service."

Wang Ying also found it funny: "There's nothing we can do. We are friends. Sometimes, even if we help friends, we have to pay attention to the way and method, especially for people with sensitive personalities."

Zhou Chen smiled and touched her face: "My girlfriend is smart. Not only is she smart, but she is also kind-hearted. She is really beautiful and kind-hearted."

"Don't touch me. Don't ruin my makeup." Wang Ying said coquettishly.

"It doesn't matter if it's ruined. My girlfriend is the most beautiful whether she wears makeup or not." Zhou Chen said with a firm tone.

When they arrived at the school, Wang Ying was about to get off the car, and Zhou Chen stopped her.

"Wear warm clothes during this period, don't catch a cold, you should have heard about the recent flu epidemic."

Wang Ying's face changed slightly: "Of course I heard about it, you also heard about it in America?"

"Well, remember my words, this flu is not ordinary, it is highly contagious and difficult to treat, you must pay attention to keep warm, especially in the morning and evening, anyway, I am back now, from today, you don't live in the dormitory in the morning and evening, I will be responsible for your morning and evening travel."

Zhou Chen's expression was serious. He had skills and was not afraid of infectious diseases, but Wang Ying was not. Now the flu was serious, he was really worried about Wang Ying. Only when Wang Ying was in front of him could he be completely relieved. As long as he was by his side, even if Wang Ying felt uncomfortable, he could treat her in time and effectively.

Wang Ying was shocked when she saw Zhou Chen's serious expression: "Is it really that serious?"

"It's more serious than you think. Anyway, it's right to listen to me."

Zhou Chen didn't explain too much, just reminded Wang Ying to remember, and he drove away after Wang Ying got off the car and walked away.
