Brilliant Years 1991

Chapter 193 What a good goddess!
The Post and Telecommunications University locks its doors at 9:30 p.m., so I guess the Film Academy should be similar.

But Song Yuqian was afraid of being talked about by her classmates, so she insisted on going back after seven o'clock. So after we sent her back to school and took a bus to the gate of the Film Academy, it was only eight o'clock.

There's still time for another date.

Anyway, Cao Yukun came to the capital just for a date.

It was still the small shop at the school gate. He picked up the phone and called Yu Feihong and her roommates' dormitory building. The call was connected after a while. After he gave his name, the dormitory manager started yelling in a loud voice.

After waiting for two full minutes, a breathless person finally answered the phone.

"Hello, who is it?"

"I'm Cao Yukun."

"Ah...Brother, why did you call me?"

Calling her Yu Kun or Ah Kun, she is not qualified. Calling her Mr. Kun or Mr. Cao, it is too foreign and not intimate. How can it be possible to call her brother based on age? Then call her brother!
Although she was born in 71, she is two years older than Cao Yukun.

But the old auntie always calls me brother!

So when she called Cao Yukun for the second time and heard her call him Yukun, Cao Yukun corrected her and asked her to call him brother in the future - ever since she took the initiative to call to beg for mercy and apologize, she seemed to have suddenly understood the rules of dealing with Cao Yukun, and she was no longer arrogant, and she obediently called him brother at that time.

It’s not sweet, not even as sweet as the old aunt’s. Her voice is naturally a bit hard and cold, but precisely because it’s not sweet, and because of the coldness and hardness, it makes people feel a sense of conquest and accomplishment.

This was the first time Cao Yukun took the initiative to call her.

It's not that I want to control her. She called to apologize on her own initiative, and she has already knelt down thoroughly. There is no need to control her any more. Instead, I should give her some sweet treats. The main reason is that although telephones are not rare these days, especially in the capital, she is just a student after all, and she has to live in the dormitory. The only way to contact her is the phone under the control of the building manager - it's quite cumbersome.

"I'm right in front of your school!"

"Ah? ...Then wait for me!"

After hanging up the phone, five minutes later, she ran out panting.

Cao Yukun was standing under a tree by the roadside smoking. He turned around when he heard the noise. She quickly stood in front of Cao Yukun - he could touch her face with just a raise of her hand.

Cao Yukun really raised his hand and touched her face.

She was a little shy, but didn't resist.

"When did you come?"

"Yesterday, but I was busy. I wanted to call you in advance, but I thought I had to let you wait. It would be better not to tell you first. I will come to you directly after I finish my work."

"Ah."

She nodded and smiled incredibly sweetly.

She must have come out in a hurry, for she was only wearing a grey T-shirt, her hair was loose, and she was wearing a pair of so-called stirrup pants, which were black and slightly tight, and a pair of white sneakers.

Cao Yukun reached out to push away two strands of hair from her face, but then he couldn't help but look down.

She looked down following Cao Yukun's gaze and exclaimed, "Ah!" Under the dim street light, she looked a little embarrassed for a moment, and her waist suddenly slumped. After a long while, she said, "I thought... I was just answering the phone, and after answering the phone I was in a hurry to come out, and I forgot that I was wearing stirrup pants..."

Cao Yukun smiled and opened his arms towards her.

She hesitated for just a second, but then decisively picked him up herself.

Tsk... so good!

This is really a very strange feeling. Even for Cao Yukun, it is an indescribable new experience - even after the girl took the initiative to call him to apologize, Cao Yukun never thought that her transformation would be so great, and that she would suddenly become so well-behaved and obedient.

Take a breath, it’s full of fragrance.

Cao Yukun patted her back gently and said, "Go ahead, go back and change your clothes before coming out again."

Although it was night, these days once night falls, even in the capital, the light outside is not bright, and passers-by can't actually see anything, but for a girl, wearing such tight pants is still indecent.

Especially in this era now.

People like Cao Yukun can be a cold and domineering president at times, but at other times, with just a thought, he can immediately turn into a warm and affectionate gentleman.

The pressure, temptation and coldness given to the girl in his arms at this moment are enough.

The rest should be given to gentleness.

She nodded and said, "Then wait for me for a while. I'll be there soon! Wait for me!"

So she got out of Cao Yukun's arms, turned around and ran back to the school.

However, when she came out again, it was actually more than twenty minutes later - she had changed her clothes and tied her hair into a ponytail, but more importantly, she should have put on some makeup.

Cao Yukun took her hand.

But today, after meeting Song Yuqian at noon, he had been walking around almost all the time. He was a little tired, and he was also bored with shopping. Cao Yukun smiled and said, "Let's find a place to sit for a while?"

"Okay, listen to you."

I took another taxi and went to the Jianguo Hotel.

Cao Yukun actually prepared the formalities for checking in at the Jianguo Hotel. As a foreign-related hotel, the Jianguo Hotel currently does not accept Chinese people without official letters from foreign-related units, but Cao Yukun is a Hong Kong businessman, so it is really easy for him to get a set of formalities for checking in at a foreign-related hotel at Hongkong.

Check in was a breeze.

Moreover, he requested a presidential suite which was so luxurious that the daily room rate was USD 688 million. He still remembered that Yu Feihong followed him back to the suite, walked to the huge floor-to-ceiling window with a stunned look on his face, and stood there gazing into the distance!

But he didn't take her upstairs right away - Cao Yukun had thought about why she suddenly turned hostile last time, and it was probably because he had played too roughly at that time.

Girls these days, no matter how much they covet your money, power, and status, still have to maintain their dignity. What's more, Yu Feihong should be a very proud girl, and her tolerance threshold should be lower than that of many girls.

Perhaps, if I had been more patient last time and nurtured the relationship first, I might have been able to win it the next day - at least I could have given it a buffer and done it the second time we met!

Of course, she suddenly turned back and unexpectedly helped Cao Yukun complete the eagle-watching in one go, which was another matter - in this kind of thing, in the psychological warfare of human beings, who could tell the truth?
Just enjoy it.

After checking in, I didn’t go to the room but went to the cafe inside the hotel first.

The last time I came to the capital, Song Yuhua called me here. At that time, Cao Yukun took her to the internal restaurant to eat noodles, and they discovered the coffee shop here. What is completely different from thirty years later is that in today's country, coffee shops are extremely rare. There is one in the consulate area of ​​Shanghai, but it is said that there is not even one in the capital. Only in those foreign-related hotels are there coffee shops specifically for foreigners.

The decoration is high-end and the price is expensive.

Sure enough, she seemed to like the style of the coffee shop. Although she seemed a little restrained when she first entered, after the coffee and desserts were served and she finished observing the interior decoration, environment, and the foreigners drinking coffee at other tables, she gradually calmed down and whispered, "I heard that coffee is not expensive abroad!"

Cao Yukun laughed and told her, "It's not expensive in Hongkong. The price here is to rip off foreigners!"

She laughed when she heard that, then took a sip of the coffee. She frowned at first, then relaxed her brows and said, "I have a classmate who has been abroad and has been to Hongkong. She told us that coffee tastes bitter at first, and then you can taste its fragrance. It's true... Do you drink coffee often in Hongkong?"

Cao Yukun was taking out a cigarette, and shrugged when he heard it. "It's okay, but I like tea more!"

Her eyes lit up immediately, "We produce tea in Zhuji!"

This is not rare. Xizhou and Hangzhou both produce tea, and Zhuji should also produce tea.

We started chatting over tea.

To be honest, even someone like Cao Yukun, who dared to take someone to bed on their second meeting, felt afterwards that he was too impatient and rude. Mainly because it was easy for people to feel resistance when two people who had actually met for the first day and hadn't even had a serious chat at all, kissed each other right away.

Anyone who is a little sensitive would probably feel like they are being looked down upon.

Two people who actually didn't know each other at all suddenly became too intimate, and this intimacy was obviously empty and even awkward.

So just show some patience today.

Anyway, chatting with girls, or listening to girls' stories, has always been Cao Yukun's strong point. However, of course, Yu Feihong is obviously more interested in Cao Yukun and wants to listen to him more.

So just say it, it's just the same things anyway, just talk about it again.

It doesn’t even have to be completely true, or logical—

"Yes, I was born in 73, so of course I'm only years old! Why can't you call me brother?"

"At that time, I was penniless. I took the 80,000 yuan my father borrowed from me and went to Shanghai..."

"When I left Shanghai, I was worth tens of millions, just three months! Last time we met, didn't Mr. Su Jianshan call me Mr. Kun? It was at that time that I was with him and two other people. The four of us were called the Four Young Masters of Shanghai by those stock traders in Shanghai... Hey, what nonsense, I am a worthless young master!"

"I have always been a peasant! No matter how others praise me, I don't believe it. A peasant is always a peasant! It's just that I have become rich now and have some money in my hands, so I can just wear shoes!"

"Of course, I'm not short of money, why don't I go fishing to support myself in my old age? Why should I struggle? But no, the boss of that factory was my father's former superior when he was in the army, and I had taken a break at that time, and it was actually quite boring to play all day, so I helped out. But helping is helping, and it was agreed from the beginning that I would buy the factory and do the work, so... I went to Hongkong to sell drinks! They didn't dare, so what was I afraid of? I dared!"

"I asked Andy Lau and Zhou Aimin to shoot my commercials. I wrote the slogans myself. Then, my drinks sold like crazy! Up to now, in Hongkong, I sell better than Coca-Cola and Pepsi! The newspapers in Hongkong call me the King of Beverages! Ha... People in Hongkong just like to exaggerate and hype. They call every little thing a king or a little business a king. I don't like that!"

"Well, it's an electrical appliance company that produces rice cookers, electric kettles and the like. At its peak, its market value was a little over 200 million Hong Kong dollars... I don't care. Their products are of good quality. It's just that the previous boss didn't know how to sell things. I'm different. I'm the best at selling things..."

The girl on the other side seemed a little fascinated by what she heard.

This is an era when the entire nation has great respect for entrepreneurs.

Over the past decade or so, almost everyone in the country, whether ordinary people or the upper class, has been pursuing economy, efficiency, development, and wealth. Once making money is the core, it is of course because money has become the most important thing in the overall social aesthetic. In other words, it was not the first, or at least not the only one, before, but now it is the first - isn’t this the set of values ​​that prevailed in the country for thousands of years before the founding of the People’s Republic of China!
And that set of values ​​is itself the reconciliation of human hearts and human nature after thousands of years of tempering and agitation.

It's too easy to recover.

Money, who doesn’t love money!

Power, who doesn’t love power!

Pretty girls, who doesn’t love pretty girls!

Soldiers have been soldiers for thousands of years. The thieves are like combs and the soldiers are like combs. Do you think this is a joke? It has been like that for thousands of years! It is only in the past few decades of our party that soldiers have become a respected profession and joining the army has become something everyone aspires to!
But now, after more than a decade of reform and opening up, wearing green military uniform to defend the country is no longer the most admired beautiful life. Starting a business, being a boss, and making a fortune are the beautiful lives admired by the whole society!

Cao Yukun, a 19-year-old boy who just graduated from high school, is undoubtedly the most awesome and successful person of this era - he is already a big boss in a place like Hongkong!
Boss of a listed company!

What Yu Feihong found particularly interesting about him was that he loved to make fun of himself. He would often belittle himself while speaking, even to the point of being worthless - but the more he did this, the more Yu Feihong couldn't help but feel the ease and ease that was unique to successful people.

Moreover, what he said may be just a casual remark, but to Yu Feihong, it sounded sharp - he not only had the courage to dissect himself, he even seemed to have seen through this era and this society. Therefore, whether in China or in the red sky, his comments, self-mockery, and emotions often have a sharp sense of precise dissection like a scalpel.

Before he knew it, Yu Feihong was intoxicated.

She couldn't help but think: "Sure enough, I made the right decision to make that call! Otherwise, if I missed such a good man, I would regret it for the rest of my life!"
