Classmate Li Zhuangsheng doesn’t want to be reborn

Chapter 629 Entering the Internet
[I have a training camp, so I’ll leave first. There’s breakfast on the table, remember to eat.]

After waking up, Li Zhuangsheng looked at the message on WeChat, got out of bed, opened the door, and saw warm buns, sauce-flavored cakes and porridge on the dining table.

There was also a sticky note on the plastic bag with Hu Mengdie's beautiful handwriting on it: Even during the summer vacation, you should maintain a regular schedule.

There is also a smiley face drawn at the end.

Li Zhuangsheng smiled knowingly and turned around to brush his teeth and wash up.

It seems that all his worries were in vain. Li Zhuangsheng ate his breakfast with a bit of disappointment.

After all, what makes you think they will attack at night? Are you some kind of coveted Tang Monk meat, whose essence will make you immortal?
No, no, no, I didn’t think so.

Just looking at the atmosphere last night, he was worried that Hu Mengdie would show her true colors and kick open the already shaky door between them. How should he deal with it then?
He knew what he should do. He should decline in advance as he had done before, or reject her directly.

He knew it, but before he knew it, Hu Mengdie had become part of his life, and Li Zhuangsheng could no longer let her go. He didn't want to refuse, but he couldn't agree either.

Fortunately, nothing happened.

The other party really just came to stay for one night.

After breakfast, Li Zhuangsheng lazily thought about what to do today. Although it was summer vacation, there were still a small number of people staying in school, and there were also people in the club activity room.

But in the middle of summer, when there are no classes, I really have no motivation to go to school.

Let’s go to the studio. Even though there’s nothing to do today… I can go and read a book.

When I rented the studio, I saw a bookshelf in the office, so I went to the second-hand market and bought some books to fill it. He could read The Little Prince, which he read many years ago and just regarded as a simple fairy tale. When Hu Mengdie mentioned it yesterday, it aroused my interest.

It rained last night, and the air is especially fresh today. The sun is shining, and it's not too hot.

When he arrived at the company, Li Zhuangsheng pretended to walk around, checked the progress, then picked up a popsicle and slipped into the office.

Li Xiuyu is in France now, and she should not have gotten up yet. But she would send him a lot of photos and videos every day to show him that she was having fun. But Li Zhuangsheng laughed at her like Zhu Bajie eating ginseng fruit, not caring about the cultural connotation, just taking photos and checking in to show that she had been there.

Since he had breakfast a little late, Li Zhuangsheng didn't feel hungry even when he stayed in the office until noon. However, Bai Min packed a portion for Li Zhuangsheng after she and her friends went out for lunch.

"Hey, how long did you stay with Hu Mengdie last night?"

Bai Min threw the food on Li Zhuangsheng's table and winked at him.

Li Zhuangsheng coughed and said, "Please stop gossiping and just work hard!"

"First of all, it's lunch time now." Bai Min said seriously, "Secondly, Hu Mengdie and I are good friends. I'm concerned about her safety!"

"What's the problem with her safety?"

"How is it okay? I heard that she has never been in a relationship. She is so innocent. What if she gets eaten by some big bad wolf?"

Li Zhuangsheng unhappily broke open the disposable chopsticks and said, "Why don't you just name me?"

"Hehehe!" Bai Min said with a smile, "Hurry up and tell me the truth. What did you two do last night when you were alone in the same room?"

Li Zhuangsheng deliberately glared and said, "Can you please stop thinking that people are so dirty and that there is no pure love between men and women?"

"If the relationship between you and Hu Mengdie is truly pure, then I believe that Teacher Cang is still a virgin!"

"You're a girl... can you please stop making dirty jokes? Besides, my last name is Kurai!"

"What's wrong with being a girl? Can't a girl look at Teacher Cang?" Bai Min said confidently, "You don't think that girls can't take the initiative to like someone? Can't take the initiative to confess, can't take the initiative to pursue?"

"I can't argue with you... Go and paint." Li Zhuangsheng smiled bitterly. "You are a shareholder. If you are so lazy, how can the company make a profit? Do you still want dividends?"

Bai Min raised her eyebrows: "I think if the company wants to make a profit, you must first change overtime to unpaid and make it mandatory to work on Saturdays. It's a sin for you to give this money to employees!"

Li Zhuangsheng laughed and scolded: "Zhou Pa Pi, do you still have any humanity? Didn't you hate your previous employer the most for working 996 and not paying compensation?"

Bai Min didn't blush at all: "I used to be an employee, but now I'm a shareholder. Isn't that different? Now every time I see someone slacking off, I get angry!"

Li Zhuangsheng laughed: "This is the first time I've seen someone being so self-righteous with double standards!"

Bai Min also laughed.

"Hey, seriously. I've never seen a boss as conscientious as you. Apart from other things, the chairs are all ergonomic chairs worth one thousand yuan." Bai Min stretched out his arm and poked Li Zhuangsheng.

"That's nothing. You can buy seven, eight or even more than ten with your monthly salary. I don't feel bad paying you every month. Besides, you sit for a long time every day, so sitting more comfortably can also improve your work efficiency!"

"That being said, most bosses still try to save as much as possible. Although your idea makes sense, it's still quite rare."

"Haven't you only worked for one company before? How do you know so much about others?"

"I interviewed a lot!" Bai Min patted his chest, "Especially someone like you who has three massage chairs in the company and lets employees use them at will. It's unheard of!"

"There's nothing I can do about it, this is what a good boss is like!" Li Zhuangsheng boasted a little.

“It’s just that sometimes you can’t get it.”

"Okay, okay, so you're here to complain." Li Zhuangsheng laughed, "Then I'll buy two more in a few days, but the company is already a bit crowded..."

Bai Min decisively refused: "Forget it, it's already a long way to go to make a profit. If you keep spending money recklessly, when will you get the dividends?"

Li Zhuangsheng smiled slightly: "I can do it in my personal name, not through the company account. And you have to trust us, it will only take a few minutes to make a profit!"

"Haha, you're just bragging!" Bai Min didn't believe it. "I heard that a website wanted to be exclusive, but you refused. It seems that you are determined to do charity!"

"They don't give much. If we sign an exclusive contract, the traffic will decline. Right now, traffic is more important than the small profits in front of us." Li Zhuangsheng smiled faintly, "I want to make cultural and creative water cups recently. I want to make a series and print the pictures of each issue on them. Can you think of a way to design it? If we can sell them in the future, we can make a profit!"

"That's a good idea." Bai Min's eyes lit up. "What kind of cup do you want to make?"

"Let's have a meeting in the next two days to discuss it. This is just an idea I have at the moment."

Bai Min nodded repeatedly: "Okay, let's brainstorm. Hey, you should know Hu Mengdie's feelings for you very well!"

"...Are you jumping too fast on this topic?"

"At first, I thought you were just rich. But now I think you are worthy of her even if you don't have money!" Bai Min stared at Li Zhuangsheng, "Don't you think you two are destined to be together? One is Zhuangsheng, and the other is Mengdie."

"...Please don't talk about personal matters while you're working."

"Okay, I was wrong." Bai Min turned around, "I'll go check what type of water cup is most used now."

"Well, thank you for your hard work!"

"Don't hesitate. Hu Mengdie is so beautiful. She could be kidnapped at any time. It will be too late for you to regret it then!" said Bai Min.

Li Zhuangsheng was silent.

Bai Min returned to her workstation, thinking to herself that such a handsome guy who is rich and easy-going... I want to make a move. Although he is a little older, it is said that if a woman is three years older than her husband, she will bring gold bricks.

Never mind, I was just kidding!

People have self-knowledge.

However, from the past few months of getting along, Li Zhuangsheng seems to have become much more cheerful. Although he was very humble before, he always gave people a gentle and polite feeling. He was very polite, but there was a sense of alienation that kept people away from him.

Now, I see him laughing more and more often, and we can joke with each other very casually. His heart has gradually opened up, he is becoming more and more casual, and his charm can be felt more and more.

Sunny boy... Such an old-fashioned word, but very appropriate.

……

Li Zhuangsheng stayed in the company until very late. When it was almost time to get off work, Li Zhuangsheng asked briefly about the day's progress and then took another ice cream.

After get off work, many people voluntarily stay to work overtime. Of course, even if it is voluntary overtime, there is overtime pay.

Although the average weekly output of Zhuang Sheng Xun Die is less than one minute, the work intensity is also quite high due to the high painting requirements, and it is almost impossible not to work overtime in the early stages.

However, people often volunteer to stay and work overtime, which means that at present, without forcing everyone to stay and work overtime, the progress can barely catch up with the scheduled plan.

Treat employees as human beings, and they will naturally feel it. Li Zhuangsheng believes this more and more. When he has nothing to do, Li Zhuangsheng sits next to Bai Min and watches her paint.

"Why didn't Hu Mengdie come today?" Bai Min looked up at him.

"Her friend has a birthday today," said Li Zhuangsheng.

"Oh, it can't be a male friend?" Bai Min teased.

"She said it was a girl!" Li Zhuangsheng said angrily.

"If she says it's a girl, then it's a girl? What if it's a boy? What if it's a handsome guy like Huang Xiaoming?"

"Which one of Huang Xiaoming do you like?"

"I think he looks very handsome when he plays Yue Fei... Hey, don't change the subject, what if it's a man!"

Li Zhuangsheng answered confidently: "It can't be a boy!"

Bai Min squinted and said, "Shouldn't you say that it doesn't matter to you whether it's a man or a woman? You really care about her! If the other person is a man, you will definitely be unhappy."

Li Zhuangsheng was stunned, and then he noticed that Bai Min was setting a trap for him.

"Your painting skills are really good." Li Zhuangsheng said, "It reminds me of someone."

"You want to change the subject again."

"Really, like an old friend of mine!"

"Then why don't you invite your old friend to the company?"

"I'm afraid my small temple can't afford her big Buddha statue right now." Li Zhuangsheng smiled and stretched, "Besides, she is preparing for the sports meeting now."

"Is she still an athlete? Male or female?"

"Female, a female high school student."

"abnormal."

The corner of Li Zhuangsheng's mouth twitched slightly.

Suddenly, his cell phone vibrated.

[If I had known, I wouldn’t have come] Hu Mengdie sent a message.

【What happened?】 Li Zhuangsheng asked.

[The person I least want to see is also here]

They really "invited" Lu Qian over... Li Zhuangsheng frowned slightly.

[Then find an excuse to leave after dinner]

[I can’t leave yet. I’m being held back and forced to go to KTV]

Li Zhuangsheng frowned even deeper:

[Then you should be careful, stay with your close roommates, and return to the dormitory early]

[Okay, I obey.]

Hu Mengdie made a naughty expression.

"Hu Mengdie?" Bai Min raised his eyes and slightly sped up the progress on the drawing board.

"Yeah, that's right. She's having dinner with her friends." Li Zhuangsheng put down his phone.

"I'm still thinking about you while eating?"

"Hmm...ah."

Li Zhuangsheng couldn't help but sigh softly.

"What's wrong? Is she being entangled by other boys?"

"Haha, maybe. She's so pretty."

"If you're worried, then you can go too."

"I don't know her friends, what am I going to do?"

"Just say it's her boyfriend!"

"Don't make trouble..."

Li Zhuangsheng waved his hands and suddenly remembered that tomorrow was his birthday, and it was also the day he would pretend to be Hu Mengdie's boyfriend and use it as an excuse to treat her roommates to dinner.

Have a clear conscience, have a clear conscience...

He watched Bai Min's progress for a while, then went to chat with Rong Hongguang.

Suddenly, the phone vibrated again. It was a text message from Hu Mengdie [Can you pick me up?]

【What’s wrong with you? 】

[I felt a little dizzy and they wouldn’t let me leave]

[Have you got hypoglycemia again? ]

[No, I just feel dizzy] [I just drank a drink and she wanted to push me towards Lu Qian]

Li Zhuangsheng was startled and stood up suddenly.

【Address, where are you? 】

No response.

Li Zhuangsheng's face turned very ugly. He rushed out of the company while calling Hu Mengdie.

No one heard.

"Oh shit!"

Li Zhuangsheng cursed fiercely, wishing he could crush his phone. He was about to call the police when he finally received the location information sent by Hu Mengdie.

Fortunately, it is not far from the company.

Li Zhuangsheng quickly stepped onto the electric scooter, but it was the evening rush hour and taking a taxi was not as fast as taking an electric scooter.

Don't be in trouble, don't be in trouble...

Li Zhuangsheng dialed Hu Mengdie's number and put his phone in his pocket, turning on the hands-free mode. His hands were shaking as he rode the electric scooter, praying that he could catch up.

If Hu Mengdie really got into trouble, he would hate himself for the rest of his life! Even death would not be able to make up for his mistake!
If I had accepted her confession earlier, this wouldn't have happened. Li Zhuangsheng was filled with regret after narrowly running a red light.

Compared to the night of New Year's Eve in my second year of high school, I feel even more regretful and fearful.

Damn it, Lu Qian, right? No matter who your father is, I’m going to kill you!
Li Zhuangsheng's teeth were about to break as he squeezed the accelerator to the floor, wishing that this electric car could have wings. Why couldn't it fly!

He took out his cell phone from his pocket with one hand and called Hu Mengdie again and again with trembling hands.

[I'm so scared, they are going to take me away] Hu Mengdie's text message came again.

"I'll be there soon!" Li Zhuangsheng roared as he typed his voice, "Tell them I'll be there soon!"
