Chapter 234: Chapter 235: Shuimu University
Regarding Hanmen Catering, the business was still quite good. With Yang Lu and Liu Xiaolei in charge of Hanmen Catering and Hanmen Technology, he could rest a lot easier. As for other aspects, there wasn’t much else. Xiao Han had an idea in his mind, wondering if Hanmen Catering could expand and develop towards the provincial city.
He thought of expanding the Hanmen Catering brand towards the provincial city.
If five stores really opened in Linjiang City, he believed that Linjiang City’s business would definitely reach saturation, so it was necessary to expand the market towards the provincial city. The market in the provincial city was much larger than in Linjiang City. The provincial city alone had a population of five to six million. This was a huge, infinite market. As long as he could secure this market, then Hanmen Catering could definitely reach a new level.
Moreover, he still had Liu Si’s twenty million in funds, and not spending that money would simply be a loss. Money that stays in the account forever is just a piece of paper. Funds only qualify as such when they flow; otherwise, they’re just numbers.
After thinking for a long time, Xiao Han made a decision; he would go to the provincial city personally to scout for a good location, and it would be best to have Zhao Lizhong also visit the site for an inspection.
Unknowingly, Xiao Han drifted off to sleep.
Until the next morning.
Horns sounded urgently outside. Xiao Han woke up from his sleep.
“Xiao Han,” Li Dapang called out anxiously.
“I’m coming,” Xiao Han quickly got up.
Li Dapang, excited, pushed the door open; Mother Xiao was making dumplings. Seeing Li Dapang, she quickly said, “Big Fatty, you’re here? Have you had breakfast? I’m just making dumplings, do you want a bowl?”
“Sure,” Li Dapang, in brand-new clothes, said with a grin, “I haven’t eaten yet.”
Mother Xiao hurriedly added twenty more dumplings to the pot.
After Xiao Han washed up, the dumplings were ready. Looking at those snow-white dumplings, they were very tempting. Li Dapang started eating first, and his enthusiastic response after swallowing a pork dumpling was, “Delicious, auntie, your dumplings are so good.”
“If you like them, eat more,” Mother Xiao said with a smile. Today her son was going to the provincial city for university, and all a mother could do was personally make him a bowl of dumplings.
After breakfast, Xiao Han picked up his luggage and got in the car.
“Mom, I’m leaving,” Xiao Han waved at his mother.
“Be safe on the road,” Mother Xiao nodded, her eyes showing her reluctance to let him go.
“Mom!” Xiao Han hugged his mother.
Holding his mother, Xiao Han felt her frailty and weakness. She was so light it made Xiao Han’s heart ache.
“My child has grown up,” Mother Xiao said, holding Xiao Han, unable to stop the tears from falling.
“Mom, I’m going,” Xiao Han said.
“Okay!” Mother Xiao let go of Xiao Han, then watched as he got into the car.
Li Dapang opened the car door and shouted, “Auntie, it’s not like Xiao Han won’t come back. Don’t worry, he will come back. Besides, we have the National Day holiday one month after classes start, won’t he come back during the holiday?”
“Right, right!” Mother Xiao nodded, wiping away her tears, “He will be back soon.”
Mother Xiao could only comfort herself in this way, after all, her son going to university was a good thing. How could she cry? She should be happy. When other people’s children go to university, every household bursts long strings of firecrackers, hoping for good fortune.
Li Dapang drove away. Mother Xiao took a few quick steps to follow, but in the end, she couldn’t keep up with the speed of the BMW.
Xiao Han sat in the back seat, looking particularly lonely and desolate.
“Xiao Han, don’t be sad,” Li Dapang comforted, “Aren’t we still in Linjiang City? Don’t worry, if there’s anything we can help with.”
“Yeah!” Xiao Han felt immediately reassured upon hearing this. Having a brother like Li Dapang was reliable.
The car quickly got on the highway from Linjiang City. Soon, the speed dramatically increased to 130 km/h. It was Li Dapang’s first time driving this BMW on the highway, so he wanted to test the car’s performance. The car sped wildly, and the speed even reached 200 km/h.
“Don’t go too fast,” Xiao Han cautioned, “Safety first.”
“Alright!” Li Dapang immediately nodded.
After trying it out, Li Dapang was also satisfied. The BMW’s acceleration was indeed very impressive; with one press of the accelerator, the sensation of being pushed back was extremely strong, which was thrilling. Li Dapang’s lips curved into a mischievous smile, “Not bad, this car is really cool, Xiao Han. Are you sure you don’t want to keep it at school?”
“Just getting to school, it’s best not to be too showy,” Xiao Han smiled.
“That makes sense,” Li Dapang nodded, “After all, it’s Shuimu University; there must be many officials’ and rich second generations there. If you drive a car better than theirs, they might get annoyed.”
“I’m not worried about that,” Xiao Han shook his head, “The school has its rules, and we need to follow them.”
“Yes!” Li Dapang nodded.
Before they knew it, more than two hours had passed, and soon the navigation instructed them to exit the highway.
After exiting the highway, Li Dapang sped toward Shuimu University.
……
The entrance of Shuimu University.
The opening ceremony had already begun, with two rows of tall, handsome men and beautiful women standing at the entrance, holding welcoming banners. The boys were uniformly over six feet tall and the girls uniformly around five feet five, all with tall figures and also very attractive faces.
At the entrance, two huge hydrogen balloons soared into the air, pulling along two long banners. Moreover, there was a huge banner at the entrance: “Welcome top scorer Xiao Han to our school!”
Seeing this banner, many new students were quite surprised.
“Xiao Han is really coming to Shuimu University?”
“This… this can’t be real, can it?”
“I heard it’s true. I can’t believe he scored full marks in the college entrance exam and chose the same university as us. It’s unbelievable.”
Many students were shocked and amazed. After all, Xiao Han’s perfect score was almost invincible. Or rather, any school would have thrown him an olive branch. Yet, he had rejected them all and chose a university that nobody had expected.
“Senior, is Xiao Han really coming to our school?” a newly admitted girl curiously asked.
“Yeah.” The boy nodded proudly, “The school said so.”
“Wow, then I must see what Xiao Han really looks like in person.” The girl was thrilled.
At that moment, a cool Lamborghini sports car sped in. The car abruptly stopped at the registration point, startling many students and teachers at the entrance. The cool, blue sports car was coated with a layer of crystal, looking very flashy.
“Wow, that sports car must be expensive, right?”
“Really cool.”
Many girls exclaimed.
At this time, someone whispered, “Could this be the big young master of the Qin family’s car?”
“It should be.” Another person nodded.
Soon, the scissor doors of the Lamborghini opened, and a man in casual pants and a striped short-sleeved shirt stepped out. The man was wearing tyrannosaurus sunglasses, stood about five feet ten, and wore white casual pants that were very slim-fitting, making his legs look very long. Paired with a pair of white casual leather shoes, he was handsome from head to toe. This person was Qin Xiaotian. Qin Xiaotian was the eldest son of the Qin family, and the Qin family’s strength in Z province was second to none.
If one had to calculate by assets, the Qin family’s public assets alone would amount to over thirty billion. Thus, the Qin family in the provincial city was definitely a big family. Not just in Z province, even if you look at all of China, they were the kind of people who could stomp their foot and the Earth would shake three times.
This year, Qin Xiaotian’s college entrance examination scores were terrible. In high school, he was busy chasing girls, and now he had been admitted to Shuimu University with a score of just over two hundred. Not a single person felt doubtful or speculative. In fact, many people thought it was only natural. Because in this country, in this process, everything is just like this. It seemed right.
After getting out of the car, the man took off his sunglasses, revealing a smiling, non-smiling smirk, and asked, “Where do I register?”
“Wow, he’s so handsome!” Many girls showed an infatuated smile.
“Freshman, over here.” In the crowd, only one girl managed to stay calm.
Seeing someone speak, Qin Xiaotian curiously scanned the girl. With his professional eye, he quickly assessed the girl’s height and measurements. Moreover, he was quickly attracted to the girl in front of him. She was five feet six, with a tall figure, perfectly developed breasts, and a very perky bottom. Not wearing high heels, this was a naturally perky… behind. It made anyone who looked at her feel an urge to claim her as their own.
The girl had a nice face, finely crafted features, a bright as jade complexion, and rosy cheeks like two blush apples. She had tied her hair in a cute ponytail, exuding youthful vigor without losing a sultry and charming aura.
“Not bad.” Qin Xiaotian’s mouth curled slightly, smiling, “What’s your name?”
“Li Ruobing.” The girl replied.
“Just as cold and exquisite as ice.” Qin Xiaotian smiled and then said, “Li Ruobing, from today onward, you’re my girlfriend.”
Whoa…
A buzz went through the crowd.
Everyone was stunned, even holding their breath, everyone stared at Li Ruobing in astonishment. They were dumbfounded. People were stunned, unsure whether this was a good or bad thing. Qin Xiaotian was a typical scoundrel and beast back in experimental high school. Now, this scoundrel and beast had actually taken a fancy to Li Ruobing? Yet, some couldn’t help but say, his family is rich!
“Freak!” Li Ruobing snapped back unapologetically.
“Interesting!” Qin Xiaotian chuckled.
Just as he was preparing his next move,
Squeak…
Suddenly, a BMW SUV sped in, coming to a sudden stop at the registration point. The car abruptly halted. Everyone was startled, and some of the more timid even dodged out of the way.
