Chapter 704 Sphinx Cat

The two-person game became a three-person game, and Zhou Rui asked the boss to add a chair.

Tong Xin pulled her cardigan closer and subconsciously sat next to Zhou Rui.

Zhou Rui swept the pile of shrimp shells into the trash can and handed over a pair of chopsticks.

"You get off work so late? Mr. Tong is getting bigger and bigger now?"

Tong Xin took the chopsticks and rolled her eyes at Zhou Rui: "You are laughing at me again"

It has been almost a year since she moved to Yangshupu, and her e-commerce company has developed rapidly.

During this year, Zhou Rui would occasionally come to see if Tong Xin needed any help.

But this girl is really different from the past, and she has never asked Zhou Rui for help.

She really doesn't need it.

Tong Xin can confidently say that since she stood up after crying at the night at the Qinghe County bus station, she has come to where she is now all by her own efforts.

The annual sales of her own e-commerce company are about 20 million, which is a very impressive achievement even at a net profit of 10%.

However, she has been focusing on work for the past two years, and most of the money she earned has been reinvested in the company, so it is not obvious that she is already a successful entrepreneur.

If it were a young man, wouldn’t he be happy every day?

But Tong Xin didn’t even have time to spend money

Zhou Rui handed over a shrimp: "It’s 618 in two days? Are you ready?"

Tong Xin put on gloves and peeled the shrimp: "I want to hit 10 million, I don’t know if I can do it."

Lu Xubo looked back and felt that the two people had a tacit understanding

Zhou Rui raised his eyebrows: "10 million? So amazing?"

Three years of contact with e-commerce, one year full-time, this is already quite awesome.

Tong Xin pointed her slender fingers and explained one by one:

"It sounds amazing, the profit margin of the shopping festival is lower, the traffic cost is higher, and the return rate is higher. Every year, various big promotions account for more than 50% of our sales, and sometimes we even lose money."

Lu Xubo looked at Tong Xin talking so eloquently, and felt that this old classmate has changed a lot compared to the past.

He was more mature than the average person in high school, so he could see things more clearly.

At that time, I felt that Tong Xin was a little vain and had some inferiority complex in her bones, which was similar to my situation. It might be the influence of her original family.

How could I imagine that she would have such achievements now?

Is it because of Zhou Rui?

All of them were more or less led to completely different life trajectories by Zhou Rui.

A better trajectory.

Tong Xin peeled the shrimp meat and put it in Zhou Rui's bowl, and then said to Lu Xubo: "What's wrong with you? Why did you become like this? I thought I was dazzled just now. Have you been working out?"

Lu Xubo and Zhou Rui looked at each other: "It's about the same. I'm in the army now, and my health is more important."

You can't say that I'm cheating, right?

Another chat about joining the army.

The three old classmates chatted for a long time at the night snack stall.

Putting aside the "night snack" friendship that has been broken for two years, Zhou Rui and Tong Xin, plus Lu Xubo, are still high school classmates in Shanghai, and there are too many topics to talk about.

The world does not revolve around Zhou Rui. Tong Xin also has many interesting things happening to her.

For example, she bought a house for her parents in Qinghe County, right where Tianhe Road was demolished and rebuilt.

For example, her parents no longer urge her to get married. Instead, they hope that she will focus on her career and marry and have children later.

Zhou Rui has always valued spiritual harmony. To be honest, he rarely teases Tong Xin or gives her any hints or promises.

But Tong Xin never feels that she is waiting for anything. She is busy with work every day. She is not a love-brained person.

Feelings do not occupy much of her brain.

However, the person "Zhou Rui" occupies a lot of space.

Maybe it is a bit confusing, but for Zhou Rui, it is no longer a matter of physical pleasure and love.

Just like a proud Sphinx cat, it is attached to someone, can be petted and played with, refuses others to get close but still sleeps alone, and even marks out territory to protect its own cat bed.

At two o'clock, Lu Xubo took the initiative to say: "Is it too late? I may have to leave. I have training tomorrow morning."

Zhou Rui looked at the watch and it was indeed time to finish. Just as he was about to tell Tong Xin: send her home, he received a text message on his phone.

Han Ziyin: "Are you okay? I woke up in the middle of the night and found that you were not back yet."

Zhou Rui thought about it and chose to reply truthfully: "I had supper with Lu Xubo and met Tong Xin. We chatted for a while and it's almost over."

Han Ziyin: "Oh? What did you eat?"

Zhou Rui: "Shrimp"

Han Ziyin: "Be careful."

Zhou Rui: "???"

Putting down the phone, Zhou Rui said to Tong Xin: "Your home is in the opposite community, right? I'll give you a ride?"

Tong Xin shook her head: "It's just opposite. What's there to send? You all go back. If you have time, you can come to see me. It's upstairs."

The two watched Tong Xin walk into the opposite community before turning around and leaving.

Lu Xubo nudged Zhou Rui with his elbow: "I thought you would go with me."

Zhou Rui glanced at him: "Is this how you see me?"

"You are much more powerful than this in my eyes."

Although at Zhou Rui's level, matters between men and women cannot be called moral issues, it is more reasonable to call them "strange people and interesting things".

But what he really admired was that Zhou Rui could make the atmosphere so harmonious and stable.

Zhou Rui glanced at him: "There's something behind your words. What's great about it?"

Lv Xubo's sturdy shoulders pushed Zhou Rui: "What do you think?"

"I'm great in everything. I don't know what you're talking about."

"What's the most amazing thing?"

"It's too advanced. I can't show it to you. I'm afraid it'll scare you."

The two of them were laughing and preparing to leave.

But not far away, they saw a fire truck shining with red light, speeding over.

Behind the ordinary fire truck, there was another vehicle that Zhou Rui was very familiar with.

The overall appearance is still a truck, with a full red paint job, and an integrated platform full of technology on the back.

Enlightened and intelligent movable intelligent firefighting platform: "Water God".

Strictly speaking, it was put into production last year, but this thing is parked in various fire stations most of the time, so even Zhou Rui rarely sees it.

After the "Water God" is another ordinary fire truck.

Three vehicles, a huge momentum.

Because it was late, there were no cars blocking the road, so they didn't sound the sirens, but the loud noise of the cars whizzing past showed that they were very anxious.

The scattered night owls on the roadside followed them.

Zhou Rui and Lu Xubo looked at each other.

It's not that ridiculous, right? They just separated.

They didn't communicate, but they turned around and ran at the same time.

Zhou Rui didn't say anything. After Lu Xubo had eaten and drunk enough, his physical strength recovered quickly and his speed was also very fast.

The two figures who were too agile returned to the place where they parted with Tong Xin in just a few tens of seconds.

Fortunately, the matter was not so bloody that it was outrageous. Tong Xin was not trapped in the sea of ​​fire, but also stood at the gate of the community, staring blankly inside.

Two gusts of wind came from behind, and Tong Xin almost couldn't stand steady. After seeing that it was Zhou Rui, he was relieved and pointed to the distance absentmindedly.

"It seems to be on fire there"

From this angle, it is not conspicuous. If the fire truck was not parked at the gate of the community, it would be mistaken for a light.

The firefighter got out of the car and shouted, "Whose car is this?! It's a black BMW with the license plate number 744! Where is the property management?"
