Be Your Own Boss
After they left, the two of them sat on the playground.
Li Yizheng thought for a moment and said, "Although I've invested all my money, money that I should have, I still have."
Gu Shihui licked the ice cream and said, "Oh, I know. Why?"
Li Yizheng didn't say anything. He wanted to tell Gu Shihui that she didn't need to save money for him. Even if he wasn't rich enough, he still had the money to buy her ice cream.
But in the end, he did not say it out loud.
If Gu Shihui knew what he was thinking, she would be so angry and vomit blood.
She was not there to save money for him. She only bought it when she saw the second one at half price on the sign.
This second one at half price reminded her of the times in 2021, she would pester Li Yizheng to buy milk tea whenever she passed by the milk tea shop.
Both of them would have a cup each but they would order what Gu Shihui liked to drink.
So, Gu Shihui would first drink half of the milk tea in her hand, and said to Li Yizheng, "Let me have a taste of your milk tea."
Li Yizheng would give the milk tea in his hand to her strangely every time.
After she drank it, she would say to Li Yizheng, "Well, yours is still the best, so let's exchange."
Without waiting for Li Yizheng to agree or disagree, she directly stuffed her cup of milk tea into Li Yizheng's arms.
She would run away with Li Yizheng's cup of milk tea in her arms.
And she would turn her head to look at Li Yizheng while running.
Every time, Li Yizheng would be behind her holding the milk tea and looked at her lovingly.
And he would keep telling her, "Run slowly."
The two of them did not speak. They just quietly enjoyed the breeze and the sunlight.
Li Yizheng wanted to ask about the future.
But he did not know how to start the conversation.
He could not tell Gu Shihui that he could hear her inner thoughts.
This was too ridiculous. Moreover, it's an act of impulsiveness so this matter had to be considered from a long-term perspective.
Since I can't ask directly, how should I find out what I want to know indirectly?
Li Yizheng began to worry again.
"I think with your intelligence, have you ever thought of finding work at a company?" Li Yizheng asked.
Gu Shihui: "Hmm? Why are you asking all of a sudden? Moreover, I just entered the third year of high school. Isn't the timing inappropriate to consider these things now?"
"Besides..."
Gu Shihui suddenly stopped talking. Li Yizheng then asked her, "Besides what?"
"Besides, I want to be my boss in the future. I don't want to work for anyone."
At the same time, Gu Shihui was thinking in her heart.
[ Virtual currency is making so much money now. Although it's only a few hundred dollars now. By next year, it will break through tens of thousands. Moreover, the price of virtual currency will be even higher by 2021. ]
[ At that time, with the money we earn, we can start a company and become our boss. That will be great. ]
[ Even if we don't start a company, the money we earn with virtual currency can never be squandered. ]
When Li Yizheng heard 2021, it would be 10 years later.
He was silent for a moment before asking, "Then what do you plan to do when you start a company?"
Gu Shihui looked at him and said, "I actually want to do a short video shoot and then share it on various platforms for everyone to see."
Li Yizheng nodded and said, "Then what should we do first?"
"First, we should open an online celebrity studio and recruit all kinds of talented people, positioning them, packaging them, shooting them, and finally releasing them."
"So that people all over the world can see it."
"When the time comes, I'll make a proposal for you to see and you'll understand what I mean."
Li Yizheng nodded. "Oh right, My dad's company is going to lay off workers recently. I heard from my dad that it's very likely that he will be laid off. I don't want him to continue working outside."
"Do you think there's anything suitable for my dad's age?"
"Use your intellect to help me think about it."
Gu Shihui asked, "Are you praising me? Hahaha."
"How is this considered praising you?" Li Yizheng said.
"Alright, I'll think about it and see if there is any job suitable for uncle."
At this moment, Li Yizheng thought of Gu Shihui's thoughts again.
[ I remember that before I was reborn, there was still some time before Uncle Li was laid off. ]
[ Why is it early this time?" ]
[ But let me think, what kind of job can Uncle Li accept in terms of investment and make more money? ]
Thinking of this, the bell rang.
"Let's go, let's go back." Li Yizheng said as he sat up from the field and handed his arm to Gu Shihui, ready to pull her up.
However, Gu Shihui's attention was not on him at the moment.
Hence, after using Li Yizheng's arm to stand up, she wrapped around his arms naturally.
Li Yizheng's face and ears instantly turned red when he saw Gu Shihui's action.
Seeing that Gu Shihui did not look at him, he could not help but heave a sigh of relief. After all, he did not want Gu Shihui to discover his embarrassment.
After the two of them returned to class, Li Yizheng listened to the entire afternoon's class while Gu Shihui was still sketching.
In the afternoon before school ended.
Gu Shihui spent the entire afternoon organizing all the exam questions and handed them over to Li Yizheng.
She said, "You can just take a good look at the things I've organized for you recently. If there's anything you can't understand, you can contact me at any time."
"If you have time, you can look for similar exercises to do and practice."
Li Yizheng took the notebook. "Okay, got it."
After school in the afternoon, Li Yizheng fulfilled his promise.
He brought Gu Shihui to a noodle shop in an alley.
Gu Shihui followed behind him.
Just as Li Yizheng entered the noodle shop, he saw a kind-looking old lady walk over. She said with a smile, "Little Zheng, you're here. What are we eating today? Is it the same as before?"
Li Yizheng nodded and said, "Yes, Grandma, it'll be fine as long as it's the same as before."
Then, Li Yi Zheng turned his head to ask Gu Shihui what she wanted to eat.
Gu Shihui had been sizing up the decorations in the shop ever since she entered.
When she heard Li Yizheng's question, she replied, "It'll be fine as long as it's the same as you."
Li Yi Zheng acknowledged and said to the old lady, "Grandma, two ramen noodles, the usual orders."
When Gu Shihui made a sound, the old lady realized that there was someone behind Li Yizheng.
It wasn't the old lady's fault. It was Li Yizheng who had blocked Gu Shihui behind him so that he didn't notice.
The old lady smiled knowingly and said, "Little Zheng, is this your girlfriend? She's really pretty."
After saying that, she walked toward the kitchen.
Gu Shihui didn't have any special reaction when she heard that.
Li Yizheng tried to explain to the old lady, "She's not my girlfriend yet, but in the future..."
However, Gu Shihui stopped him, "Let's go, can we sit there?"
