Born Again: A Journey of Love Rediscovered Novel Chapter 190
On Saturday morning, the sunshine was mild, the sky was clear, and the blue sky stretched as far as the eye could see, with not even a few white clouds in sight.
John Qin went to the girls' dormitory to take Nancy Feng with him, intending to take her to He Yijun's home as a guest.
Today's little rich woman is particularly aloof, and she is also dressed in cool black. After seeing John Qin, she did not show her usual dull temperament. Her mouth is red and translucent, and she seems to have put on a little lipstick.
"Brother, let's go."
"Why do you call me brother when we meet? You are a bit ungrateful today!" John Qin was stunned.
Nancy Feng sat in the passenger seat seriously and exuded a cold temperament: "Brother, take me to see another woman who calls you brother."
"Holy shit, who taught you this?"
"I learned it from Wen Hui." Nancy Feng felt guilty but confident.
John Qin looked at her for a long time and suddenly narrowed his eyes: "Do you feel unhappy when others call me brother?"
Nancy Feng nodded obediently: "I'm a little sad."
"Then do you know why you are sad?"
After John Qin asked, he immediately held his breath and waited nervously for her answer. He thought to himself, don't be jealous, otherwise it would be the end of the world.
After a while, Nancy Feng pursed her rosy mouth and said, "I don't know, I don't understand anything anyway."
John Qin breathed a sigh of relief and suddenly felt that he was okay again: "Actually, many people are like this. It's nothing special. You don't need to think about the reason, let alone take it to heart."
"But the person He Manqi wants to meet is actually you. I just followed her along. She is your little crush. She vowed to become someone like you. She even has the same hairstyle as you."
Nancy Feng could no longer maintain her cold expression and became stupid again: "John Qin, what kind of person am I?"
"A capital stupid."
"I'm not stupid..."
"You're stupid, you're a fool, and you're going to see another woman. Are you reading some strange novel again? I told you not to read it."
John Qin fastened her seat belt and drove out of the school gate. The little rich woman sitting in the passenger seat became active again, her eyes constantly scanning the window, taking in the panoramic view of the scenery.
Arriving at a relatively prosperous urban area, John Qin stopped the car, went to a nearby cigarette shop, and bought some gifts.
It's appropriate to bring something with you when you visit your home for the first time, otherwise it will be too rude.
Professor Yan is right, this is the drawback of the humane society. You know that Lao He has an agenda, but you still have to bring gifts. Is there any fucking law in this?
Half an hour later, the two people arrived at Donghushanyuan outside Xicheng.
This is a townhouse area in Linchuan. It is very European-style. The doorposts of the gate are even embossed with several figures from Greek mythology.
This kind of patchwork-style architecture is very popular in this era, because the advancement of the Internet has broadened everyone's horizons, but the aesthetics has not kept up with the time, resulting in many such mixed-match buildings that combine Chinese and Western styles.
When everyone mentions Europe, they think of aristocrats. So it makes sense for the villa to have a bit of European style, right?
John Qin drove in through the gate and found that there was a statue of Belgium's Xiao Lian in front of him. It was the urinating boy who extinguished the bomb with his urine and saved the entire city.
He held the steering wheel with one hand and covered the little rich woman's eyes with the other hand.
The bronze statue is just a bronze statue. Why is it made so detailed? Damn it, this is not nakedly pornographic.
John Qin quickly bypassed the peeing boy and found Building 506 in the fifth row according to its location.
After ringing the doorbell, He Yijun, who had changed into home clothes, came out in person.
"Mr. John, please come in quickly. Is this your girlfriend?" He was a little surprised at how beautiful Nancy Feng was.
John Qin nodded calmly: "Yes, this is my good friend, Nancy Feng."
"?"
The two of them walked into the living room and saw He Manqi who was already waiting at the door. As soon as they came up, they called Brother John Qin and Sister Nan Shu. They were all very enthusiastic.
He Yijun asked his daughter to take Nancy Feng to visit, while he pulled John Qin to sit in the living room.
"Mr. John, you are going on vacation soon, right?"
"Yes, it's official vacation after the final exam."
He Yijun poured him a cup of tea: "Where is your home?"
"Jeju." John Qin picked up the teacup and said thank you.
"Jeju is a great place. I have been there several times when I was young. It is a place with outstanding people and many historical figures. No wonder there is a learning star like you."
John Qin hissed and began to dig at the soles of his shoes with his toes.
The matter of flattery is actually about finding the right method.
For example, if I have a little literary talent and you praise me as a great writer, then I will definitely be happy, because I have it, but it is just exaggerated.
But if I am bald and you insist on complimenting me on my super cool hairstyle, it is equivalent to taking a picture of a horse's hoof, because I don't have it, and I feel very guilty.
"Mr. He, didn't I come here to get some food? Where's the food?" John Qin changed the subject.
"It's still on the way. It will be delivered later. To be honest, I'm not very good at cooking, so I ordered a table at Juxian Tower."
The corner of John Qin's mouth twitched: "You can even order from a restaurant for a family banquet. This is the first time I've seen such a naughty operation."
"I can't help it, I'm divorced." He Yijun said calmly.
Logically speaking, this topic should have ended here, and it would be impolite to ask any more, but John Qin didn't. He patted the sofa crazily and called the little rich woman to come out and listen to the story.
However, the little rich woman was dragged to the second floor by He Manqi, probably because she couldn't hear John Qin's cordial call.
"Mr. John, you are somewhat rude."
"Mr. He, stop beating around the bush for me. You don't even know how to cook, and why are you asking me to come home for dinner?"
When He Yijun heard what he said, he stopped hiding it and directly expressed his concerns about the retail industry and his ideas for reform.
To put it simply, he wants to change the current sales model of the mall to cope with the changes in the development of the times, and seek a transformation in the future online shopping era.
But after thinking for a long time, he still couldn't find the direction, so he planned to ask John Qin for advice.
Yes, the boss of a large pure-selling shopping mall used the word "ask for advice" to an unknown college student.
After John Qin heard this, he immediately said something in his heart.
To be honest, as a reborn person, it is very normal for him to be able to see through the future. The life I have personally experienced, how could I not know what it will be like.
But as a person in authority, Mr. He was not confused and quickly smelled the smell of danger, which really surprised him.
Why?
Because people's reactions are usually slow, if the whip does not hit the body, they will never know the pain.
The innate sense of crisis among the older generation of businessmen who have struggled through hardships and hardships cannot be underestimated.
"Mr. John, help me clear up my doubts." He Yijun looked serious.
John Qin showed a look similar to Nancy Feng's: "Actually, I don't know either, Mr. He, I'm just an ordinary college student!"
"You're too humble. I don't like your modesty. There are no outsiders at home, so be more arrogant!"
"Actually, if you think about this problem with the inherent boss mentality, it will be easy to complicate the problem. Why not think about it from the perspective of consumers? The Internet always has its own limitations and blind spots, just like peeing, consumption You can’t urinate online, right?”
He Yijun's eyebrows stood up after hearing this: "You mean, I want to turn Wanzhong into a public toilet?"
John Qin put down the tea cup in his hand: "What I mean is that treating yourself as a consumer and thinking about what things you must do yourself may be a good reform direction."
"You need to do it yourself..."
He Yijun's scalp suddenly began to tingle, as if he had caught something.
"What is Wanzhong's current regional division like?"
"The first floor is for daily necessities and clothing, the second floor is for cosmetics and jewelry, the third floor is for daily appliances, the fourth floor is for furniture, and the fifth floor is for offices."
John Qin looked at He Yijun: "These things can be purchased online in the future. The price will definitely be lower than yours, and the gifts will be more than you. You really have no advantage and are about to be finished."
He Yijun suddenly seemed to have caught something: "Only things that cannot be purchased online can continue to survive in shopping malls?"
"That's right, such as catering, cinemas, and life services. If you want to get together with friends, watch a movie, take your children out, get a massage, get a haircut, or have your nails done, you can't do it online, right? I My suggestion is to cut off a large part of the cumbersome retail business and re-plan the mall layout from pure sales to service. You have to give people a reason to come, so that the mall can survive.
As soon as he finished speaking, the doorbell rang again at the door.
The delivery man from Juxianlou pushed the delivery truck through the door and began to place dishes on the dining table. Although it was not home-cooked food, there were sea cucumbers, abalones and the like, which showed his sincerity.
He Yijun took two simple bites, and something seemed to be activated in his mind. He didn't care about what his guests thought, and ran to the study after eating half of it.
"Uncle John Qin, do you want to drink? I'll help you pour the wine."
"Didn't you call me brother when you came in just now? Why are you suddenly calling me uncle now?"
After John Qin finished speaking, he subconsciously looked at the little rich woman sitting next to him.
Nancy Feng picked up the water cup and drank water, looking at him with innocent eyes, as if there was water color rippling in them.
"My father said that he and you are equals, so it would be rude to call you brother."
"But as far as I know, you never listen to your father, right?" John Qin was a little skeptical.
He Manqi coughed: "I'm obedient now. By the way, uncle, can you praise me some more about Sister Nancy?"
John Qin put down his chopsticks and looked at her: "Do you want to listen, or does someone else want to eavesdrop?"
The little rich woman was picking up peanuts. When she heard these words, the peanuts on her chopsticks fell off.
