Chapter 489: Chapter 488 Company Plan
She stood by the roadside hailing a taxi.
But suddenly, a car horn sounded from behind her.
Yang Ruoxi turned around.
A black Mercedes sports car stopped in front of her, and the window rolled down to reveal Li Yunfang’s gentle smile.
"Hello, let me give you a ride."
"Thank you, please get in," Yang Ruoxi said with a slight smile, getting into the car.
The Mercedes sports car slowly moved off, heading towards the downtown area.
...
Liu Zhengzheng was thinking about how the company’s recent plans were faring.
He was already the chairman of the company, and his hard work and efforts had paid off during this time.
He had family and friends in this world.
Although the body he occupied no longer existed in this time and space, he was still a transmigrator.
He also had his own soul.
But in this world, he could only be considered a half-transmigrator.
Because in this world, he had no family or friends, that’s why he chose to transmigrate.
After transmigration, his body completely disappeared.
He still had to search for his family and friends anew.
"Dingling!"
The phone ring interrupted Liu Zheng’s train of thought.
He picked up the mobile phone on the desk and glanced at the caller ID, only to find it was an unfamiliar number.
"Hello! Who’s this?"
He answered the call.
"This is Li Xiaolu, are you available right now?"
A girl’s voice came through the phone.
Her name was Li Xiaolu.
A year ago, Liu Zheng skipped class and ran out of school, coming across Li Xiaolu from the same village on a mountain.
Li Xiaolu was a famous college student in the village who aced the college entrance examination and had stable high school grades, and was quite well-known locally.
However, at that time, Li Xiaolu had already graduated, while Liu Zheng was still in high school.
Their personalities were poles apart.
But they liked each other nonetheless.
Liu Zheng was an orphan; a car accident that led to his parents’ divorce when he was ten had left him an orphan.
Li Xiaolu was different, though.
Li Xiaolu had parents, and her father loved her dearly.
She was adopted by a family during her high school years.
At the age of thirteen, her mother passed away from illness.
In Li Xiaolu’s eyes, Liu Zheng was a prospective husband.
Unfortunately...
"Hello, yes, I can talk."
Surprised by the girl’s voice coming over the phone, Liu Zheng responded.
"In that case, do you have time to have a cup of coffee with me?" Li Xiaolu asked.
"Of course, where are you? I’ll come to you!" Liu Zheng quickly said upon hearing Li Xiaolu’s invitation to coffee.
"Then let’s meet at the Blue Agate Coffee Shop in the old town, okay?"
"Sure!"
Liu Zheng agreed.
After hanging up the phone, he changed his clothes and left.
At the entrance of the Blue Agate Coffee Shop in the old town, Liu Zheng saw the slender and pretty girl. She was dressed in a light pink dress, her hair tied in a ponytail.
Her face was delicate, but her brows hinted at fatigue, as if she had just woken up, appearing very endearing.
"Let’s go," Liu Zheng approached Li Xiaolu and said with a smile.
"Okay!"
Li Xiaolu nodded and latched onto Liu Zheng’s arm as they headed towards the inside of the coffee shop.
As soon as they walked in, a waiter came up to greet them.
"May I help you with anything?"
"One Black Forest thick soup, thank you!"
"Alright! Please wait a moment!"
After the waiter left, Li Xiaolu lifted her head and looked at Liu Zheng with a smile, "Liu Zheng, how much money did you make this month?"
Li Xiaolu’s tone carried a hint of playfulness.
In her memory, Liu Zheng seemed like a very interesting boy, which was why she always couldn’t resist teasing him.
Smiling at the girl’s words, Liu Zheng said, "You see, this is the evidence!"
Liu Zheng took off the watch from his wrist.
The watch looked very vintage, with many English characters on it.
Li Xiaolu examined closely and indeed found that there were several English characters on Liu Zheng’s watch, and not just a few.
This watch was a limited edition, valued at five million Huaxia currency!
In the entire Huaxia, it was considered quite expensive.
In Huaxia, there’s an old saying, "Money can’t buy a piece of gold, and land is hard to come by."
This saying was very popular in Huaxia.
A huge diamond was embedded in the watch, sparkling with dazzling light under the sunlight.
The diamond on the watch was a whole two carats.
Such a large diamond was probably not even obtainable by the world’s top tycoons.
Li Xiaolu’s eyes widened, her face full of shock.
In her mind, this watch was worth tens of millions, perhaps even over a hundred million Huaxia currency.
"Wow, so cool!"
She couldn’t help but reach out and caress the diamond-encrusted watch.
"You don’t like it?"
Seeing the girl’s reaction, Liu Zheng asked.
"Like it, I like it so much!"
Li Xiaolu nodded.
"Then it’s yours."
"Really? Thank you so much! Liu Zheng, you are so kind!"
Li Xiaolu said happily.
She hadn’t expected that by simply asking a question, she would receive such a treasured gift from Liu Zheng.
Under these circumstances, she admired the boy even more.
"Uh, Liu Zheng, do you have a girlfriend?"
At that moment, Li Xiaolu suddenly thought of something.
She remembered Liu Zheng had said he was an orphan.
So, it was normal for him to have been studying at school without a girlfriend, right?
The thought that all this might be a coincidence made Li Xiaolu’s cheeks flush with a hint of red.
"I don’t have a girlfriend."
Liu Zheng shook his head, "I don’t plan to get married."
Hearing Liu Zheng’s answer, a trace of disappointment appeared on Li Xiaolu’s face.
"Liu Zheng, can I be your girlfriend?"
At that moment, Li Xiaolu finally mustered the courage to voice her thoughts.
Listening to the girl’s words, Liu Zheng was slightly stunned.
He hadn’t expected her to make such a request.
"Xiaolu, let’s eat first. Can we talk about this after we’ve finished eating?"
"Oh! Okay."
Li Xiaolu nodded, then picked up a spoon and took a sip of the thick soup. A burst of delicious flavor filled her mouth, instantly stimulating her appetite.
"Tastes good, right?"
Liu Zheng watched Li Xiaolu with a smile.
"Yes, it’s very tasty."
Li Xiaolu nodded.
She turned her gaze to Liu Zheng, "How did you learn to cook so well? Who taught you?"
Hearing Li Xiaolu’s question, Liu Zheng was silent for a moment, "That’s a secret, I won’t tell you."
"Okay then."
Seeing Liu Zheng didn’t want to say more, Li Xiaolu didn’t press any further.
She lowered her head again and continued to sip the coffee in her hands. After a couple of gulps, she looked up at Liu Zheng, "So, when do we start dating?"
Li Xiaolu asked very directly, without considering Liu Zheng’s feelings.
Liu Zheng responded with a smile and a shake of his head.
He didn’t have any intention of dating Li Xiaolu.
"No? Why not? That’s not fair! I’m not ugly, why wouldn’t you want to date me?"
Seeing Liu Zheng’s attitude, Li Xiaolu became anxious, "We’ve known each other for some time now, isn’t that enough to understand each other? I’m really interested in you, why don’t you like me?"
Looking at Li Xiaolu’s demeanor, Liu Zheng sighed inwardly.
The girl was still as impulsive as ever; maybe she endured too much during high school.
Back in high school, he was the best class representative in studies, but his classmates didn’t like him, only Li Xiaolu was kind to him.
