The growth system comes at the age of 30

Chapter 323 The Song Unfinished, Dongfang Bai (Final Chapter - 1 Words Free)
(The author had some minor mental health issues recently, sorry.)
"Honey~"

"Ok?"

"What field do you think our baby should pursue in the future?"

Li Beixing lay on the rocking chair, gently swaying.

They're already thinking about the future.

It's definitely necessary to prepare in advance. After all, there are only 18 years left until the college entrance examination. The earlier you start preparing, the better. Even being a little bit ahead of other children is still an advantage.

Chen Jingle wanted to laugh, but could only say that all parents are the same. She countered, "What do you think?"

Li Beixing pouted slightly: "I was the one asking you, okay?"

Then she smiled coquettishly and said, "Oh, you're smarter than me and have a broader knowledge base. I'd like to hear your opinion."

After careful consideration, Chen Jingle said, "There's no need to overthink it. In the early stages, it's good to expose children to a variety of knowledge, and then focus on cultivating their interests. While respecting their ideas, we should try our best to discover their talents. After all, interest is the best teacher for children."

Given the family's financial situation, there's a high probability that the children won't have to worry about financial issues in the future.

Therefore, they can focus on developing their interests and hobbies, and if they wish to pursue a career in that direction, it's not out of the question.

Even if you studied archaeology or philosophy.

Of course, it would be even better if they were willing to follow the path their parents had laid out for them.

After all, their parents have reached a level that ordinary people can only dream of; their vision and knowledge are beyond the reach of most people, and they can certainly help their children choose a relatively smooth path.

"Then let's do as you say and get in touch with all aspects in the early stages."

Li Beixing smiled and said, "It would be great if the baby were as capable as his father!"

Well, it's a bit unlikely that the child will inherit all of his father's talents; even a single talent is quite impressive.

Chen Jingle was both amused and exasperated: "You're already under pressure after less than two months, huh?"

"Just kidding!" Li Beixing chuckled and reached out to pull Chen Jingle's hand over.

With the father of the child setting a high bar, it is highly likely that the child will be unable to surpass him in the future.

If a child isn't competitive, that's fine. But the real problem is if they have a stubborn, unyielding child who will likely live in their father's shadow for the rest of their life.

There's no rule about what must be done. As the saying goes, children and grandchildren have their own blessings, and if a family's financial situation allows their children to do what they like, that's fine.

I just hope they are happy and healthy.

……

Time flies.

Li Beixing's belly grew bigger day by day.

Because it was twins, her belly was much bigger than that of other singleton pregnant women.

They only found out during their 12-week prenatal checkup; neither of them had expected it at first.

Mom!
She was so lucky to have twins as her first child, saving her the trouble of getting pregnant a second time!

But the problems were also significant; she suffered a lot during her pregnancy.

Fortunately, she is quite tall, otherwise getting pregnant would have been a huge challenge.

Starting from the next semester, due to her large belly, Li Beixing stopped going to school and chose to ask for leave to find other teachers to help her teach.

Chen Jingle thoughtfully helped apply the medication and care every day, so she didn't have many stretch marks.

Although Ms. Li didn't say it, Chen Jingle knew that she cared a lot about her appearance and had worried more than once that her figure would be deformed and her skin would become loose and wrinkled after giving birth.

She learned all of this from watching videos posted online by other women after giving birth.

It must be said that this did cause Ms. Li considerable anxiety.

To alleviate her anxiety, Chen Jingle could only help by massaging her every day and learning some postpartum care knowledge along the way.

He had already studied health care-related knowledge, and this time he was consolidating his existing knowledge to further enhance his professional skills.

The various professional skills broadened Teacher Li's horizons, and she jokingly said that he could be a postpartum nanny.

"Being a postpartum nanny is out of the question, but opening a postpartum care center is something I could consider. Postpartum care centers are so profitable these days, if I invest in one, I can recoup my investment very quickly."

Chen Jingle raised an eyebrow.

No joke.

Despite the declining birth rate year after year, postpartum care centers make money off the wealthy, and to some extent, they exploit people's lack of knowledge. They never lack customers.

It's common knowledge that money is easiest to make from women and children, let alone women and children combined. Even in a small city like Jiangbei, postpartum care centers cost 20,000 to 30,000 yuan, and the experience is often just so-so.

For slightly higher-end items, the price can easily reach 50,000 or 100,000.

So it's true that it's easier to make money off the rich!

It's a pity he has too many things to do and can't manage it all, otherwise he really could have done it.

……

A few days before her due date, Chen Jingle had already prepared all the necessary materials in advance, so that she wouldn't have trouble finding them when she needed them.

My water broke smoothly and my cervix dilated.

We promptly sent Ms. Li to the obstetrics and gynecology department of the Women and Children's Hospital.

Aside from being a little nervous, Chen Jingle remained calm.

Not only that, he also had to help Teacher Li relieve her tension by chatting about other topics to divert her attention.

While completing the hospital admission procedures, Chen Jingle made a phone call and immediately called his parents and in-laws over, worried that he wouldn't be able to handle everything by himself.

In small places like Jiangbei, if the operating room isn't busy, the husband can go in to accompany the mother during childbirth, as long as he's changed into his clothes.

If there are other things to handle during the birthing period, a third person will be needed to help.

At this point, the presence of other family members becomes very important.

Fortunately everything went smoothly.

It could even be said that everything went incredibly smoothly. Li Beixing was in very good physical condition, and she also exercised regularly during her pregnancy, so her cervix dilated very quickly. From lying down on the bed to giving birth, it only took half an hour.

After half an hour of effort, the two babies emerged successfully from their mother's womb one after the other.

There's a hint of impatience in it.

"They're out! They're out!"

Hearing the doctors and nurses say this, even though Chen Jingle thought he was mentally prepared, he couldn't help but tremble with excitement at this moment.

I carefully wiped away Teacher Li's sweat, tidied her hair, and fed her water and porridge to replenish her strength before I had a chance to glance at the doctor's work.

"There's one more! Keep it up!"

Fortunately, the second one went very smoothly as well, with only a two-minute interval between them.

After the umbilical cord was cut, the two little ones were making wailing noises beside me, one crying and the other crying.

The nurse brought the baby over and said with a smile, "Come and see your two babies! One has a little cheek, the other doesn't—they're twins! These two children are so adorable!"

Chen Jingle turned his head and looked at the two almost identical little ones, wrapped in the small blankets he had prepared in advance. They were indeed very cute, with pink and tender skin, and their eyes were already open, curiously looking at the outside world. They did not look like newborns at all.

Except for the fact that my hair was all wet.

Li Beixing was still a little dazed, staring blankly at the two babies that the doctors and nurses had placed on her.

what?
Is this her child?

She actually gave birth to two people?!

"Isn't it said that newborn babies are all wrinkled?" Li Beixing asked in a low voice.

Although she had replenished some energy, she was still a little weak.

The nurse laughed and said, "That's how it was when it first came out, but look, it's opened up in no time."

Which one came out first?

"The boy came out first, it's an older brother and a younger sister! However, the older brother is a little smaller, only 2730, while the younger sister is 2950. It's a slight difference, but it's not a big problem. They are both very healthy."

"..."

Li Beixing had mixed feelings, but more than anything, he was excited and happy. When he met Chen Jingle's gaze, he instantly felt that all the hardships he had endured during this period had been worthwhile.

This is their child!
Chen Jingle squatted down beside the delivery bed, looking at the two little ones with great excitement.

Starting today, he is officially a father.

After the two little ones finished sticking stickers with their mother, they both looked over when they heard Chen Jingle calling them, and they even grinned.

So cute!

Although newborns' vision is not fully developed, their hearing is normal, so they will have a subconscious reaction when they hear Chen Jingle and the other person speaking.

These are memories they had while they were still in their mother's womb.

After coming out of the delivery room, my parents and in-laws immediately surrounded me, excitedly looking at the babies in the nurse's arms. They were even more overjoyed when they learned that they were twins.

Chen Zhenwei, who is almost 60 years old, was so nervous that he kept rubbing his hands and grinning with his big teeth.

Li Qiguang, standing next to him, was equally impressive.

Forget about billionaires and big bosses; at this moment, he is simply the child's grandfather.

Jiang Zhiqin couldn't help but shed tears. Who would have thought that the little girl who cried loudly in her arms back then would now have children of her own?

In less than half a day, the news that Li Beixing had given birth to twins spread throughout the relatives' groups on both sides thanks to the help of both sets of parents, and she also received countless congratulations and envy.

Twins are still quite rare.

……

Li Beixing stayed at the Women and Children's Hospital for three days. After confirming that she had no physical discomfort, she went home.

Instead of going to a postpartum care center, she returned to her villa in the Panshan Haoyuan area.

Liu Yuehua and Jiang Zhiqin moved in, and they even hired two nannies to help take care of them. Chen Jingle was in charge of their three meals a day.

With her mother and mother-in-law by her side, and with Chen Jingle's help in rehabilitation exercises, Li Beixing recovered very well after childbirth.

As for the two little ones, they do nothing but eat and sleep, and they don't cause any trouble at all. They are truly well-behaved and good babies.

With sufficient nutrition, it grows quite fast, and everyone who sees it has to say it's cute.

Since becoming a father, one thing Chen Jingle does every day without fail is take photos of his two children, watching them grow and change day by day.

This sense of accomplishment is unparalleled by any other job.

The two children lived up to expectations and are both healthy.

During this time, Chen Qiyun couldn't help but come over to see them. She was very happy to see the two little ones. If it weren't for the upcoming high school entrance exam, she would have liked to stay here and play with the kids for a few days.

She'll be an aunt from now on.

The full moon arrived quickly.

In Jiangbei, a full moon celebration is held, regardless of whether it's a boy or a girl.

Besides, they have twins, a boy and a girl.

Chen Jingle and Li Beixing neither liked crowds, so they only invited some relatives, and only brought the baby out for everyone to see before the meal, and then had the nanny take the baby back to the room.

Newborns have weak immune systems, so getting sick is a real hassle.

When Chen Xiuyun finally saw her two little nephews, she exclaimed in surprise, "Wow, these two babies are so cute!"

They wear the same clothes and look exactly the same. Apart from the difference in gender, they are indistinguishable. They lie obediently in the stroller and are not afraid or shy when they see strangers.

He's practically her dream lover!

"Envious, aren't you? You should be!" Chen Jingle smiled, a hint of smugness in his eyes.

He's forgotten how many times he's boasted about it during this period.

Oh well, what can you do when he's so lucky?

I almost blurted out, "If you're so envious, go have one yourself," but then I thought again that saying that might sound like pressuring someone to get married, and that would be annoying.

Just shut up.

Sister Xiu stared intently at the two adorable little babies, wishing she could hold them in her arms and kiss them repeatedly. She had indeed developed the idea of ​​wanting to have a child herself.

After all, she's not young anymore.

A few years ago, I was too busy studying and looking for a job to have time. Now that I have successfully landed a job in the public sector, I can start thinking about getting pregnant.

Even with serious efforts to conceive, it would probably take a year or two to get pregnant, so it's unlikely that she would get pregnant right after starting a new job.

"By the way, what's the child's name?" Sister Xiu asked, turning her head.

Chen Jingle chuckled: "We were born in the Year of the Horse, so the older brother is named Xiangwen and the younger sister is named Zhuihua."

Their village used to have a generational naming system, but by Chen Jingle's generation, they stopped paying attention to these rules and just chose names randomly.

Needless to say, the younger generation is even more so.

Therefore, Chen Jingle did it entirely according to his own preferences.

Both 骧 and 骓 are fine horses. Although they are not commonly used, they are not obscure characters, and they are easy to pronounce and sound pleasant. Teacher Li and her parents had no objections, so this was settled.

Whether it can grow into a thoroughbred depends on how well it is nurtured.

Talent is important, but family education is equally important.

Sister Xiu gave a thumbs up: "It sounds great, much better than Zihan, Zixuan, and Muhan."

Chen Jing chuckled, neither confirming nor denying.

Naming a child is indeed not an easy task for parents. Even the great literary figures in history had to rack their brains to name their children, and the final result was not necessarily to everyone's liking.

He felt that as long as it didn't sound unpleasant and wouldn't easily be given a homophonic nickname, it would be fine.

If there's a drawback, it's probably that the character 骧 is relatively difficult to write.

This brings us to those parents who give their children awful names, like "Jianmei" or "Gou'er"—I don't understand their mentality. These aren't just ordinary awful names; it seems they've never truly considered their child's feelings.

A name is a person's symbol that accompanies them throughout their life, and a good name can make a great impression.

Even a simple, ordinary name would be fine.

Although Chen Jingle doesn't urge them, other elders will inevitably tease Chen Xiuyun and the others a bit when they see it.

"Sister Xiu, you two have been married for several years now, how come?"

"Yeah, yeah, Jingle got married later than you, and she's already had two kids. You two need to work harder!"

"..."

Although Chen Xiuyun was a little embarrassed, she did take the matter to heart, because there are certain risks associated with older mothers, and it would be best to resolve the issue within two years.

She works for a government agency now, so she doesn't have to worry about being fired if she takes maternity leave.

Then you should really start thinking about getting pregnant!

…………

After the baby turned one month old, Chen Jingle's life gradually returned to normal.

Every day I help with cooking, spend the rest of my time with my wife and kids, and read books in the remaining time.

He put calligraphy and painting aside, saying he'd deal with them when he had time!
From the first day he returned home, Chen Jingle insisted on giving lessons to the two children every day.

Yes, that's right, class is in session.

Longer sentences of language input, such as dialogues, singing, and storytelling, are actually more beneficial for children's early language learning.

Babies are much smarter than you think. Even if they can't learn something right away, they will gradually imitate it.

Simply repeating "Aba aba" doesn't actually produce the best results.

Chen Jingle went on and on, starting with the classics of Huaiyang cuisine, then moving on to Feuerbach's outline, and finally to the seven thousand years of Chinese history.

Although his parents and in-laws had some doubts, Chen Jingle insisted that he should educate his own child and not allow others to interfere, so they stopped saying anything.

When it comes to infant education and care, Chen Jingle is indeed a professional.

The two nannies had their own grumblings, but they still appreciated the boss's abilities. Plus, the boss offered generous compensation and the workload wasn't heavy. They only needed to help take care of the children and didn't even need to cook, so naturally they had no complaints.

As it turned out, Chen Jingle's approach was correct.

The two babies were very well-behaved during the lesson, neither crying nor fussing, and their eyes followed his instructions, clearly showing that they were concentrating.

This made him very satisfied.

It's because of the daily commitment to teaching that I'm a little tired, and now I truly understand how hard Teacher Li works.

After finishing her exams, Chen Qiyun spent the entire summer vacation with Chen Jingle, preparing for the new semester's courses while also helping to entertain the children.

She was happy at first, but after changing diapers a few times, she started to break down.

It's hard to imagine that such a cute baby could have such smelly poop.

Yue!

I almost fainted from the stench.

Fortunately, we have a postpartum nanny, so we don't need her help every time.

In comparison, Chen Qiyun found that learning didn't seem to be a very difficult thing.

To her surprise, Chen Jingle's nursing skills were so professional that even the postpartum nanny couldn't help but praise her.

This guy is really outrageous. He knows everything and wants to take on everything. Does he even let anyone else live?

Aside from nursing her child, Teacher Li spends most of her time trying to lose weight.

She recovered well during her postpartum period, but her weight didn't drop much, and her belly fat was quite unsightly. Although Chen Jingle didn't say a single unpleasant word, she still felt a little awkward.

So, while taking care of her child, she began to exercise actively.

With the reasonable diet and appropriate exercise plan designed by Chen Jingle, the results were obvious after sticking to it for a period of time.

As for her job at No. 8 Middle School, she plans to resign.

She originally thought that after giving birth, she could leave the child to her parents, in-laws, or even a nanny or postpartum caregiver to help take care of the baby. However, when the baby was actually born, she suddenly felt that the child was the most important thing and agreed with Chen Jingle's statement that she had to take care of her own child herself.

Therefore, resigning became inevitable.

She didn't feel any regret. Given her family background, she didn't need to value a government job too much. She was just a little sentimental, though, since she had worked at No. 8 Middle School for a few years and got along well with her colleagues and superiors, as well as the students.

However, all the students she taught had graduated. On the day of the graduation photo shoot, she even asked Chen Jingle to drive her back to the school to attend the students' graduation ceremony and take photos with everyone.

It has a beginning and an end.

In addition, after she finished her postpartum confinement, her colleagues and leaders from the school came to visit her at home, and everyone was more envious of her current life.

This made Li Beixing more determined in his decision.

……

Late May.

The results of the middle school entrance exams in Jiangbei have been released.

Chen Qiyun performed as well as always and was successfully admitted to the experimental class of Jiangbei No.1 Middle School, which means she has one foot in the door of a 985 or 211 university.

Although the quality of education in Jiangbei is not great, Jiangbei No.1 High School, as the top-ranked high school in the city and a key provincial high school, consistently has two or three students who can get into Tsinghua and Peking Universities every year, and also a considerable number of students who can get into other 92 universities, probably around 100. The rate of students admitted to first-tier universities is around 30%.

This data is a bit inflated; it certainly can't compare to the Pearl River Delta region, but it's already the best school in Jiangbei.

That's how it is in small cities outside the Pearl River Delta.

If one could pursue a competitive or foundational path, the entry barrier might be lower.

Chen Jingle didn't insist on her getting into any particular school, but her second uncle and aunt held some expectations, hoping that another outstanding college student would emerge from their family. Although Sister Xiu was a graduate student from a 211 university, her undergraduate degree was only from a second-tier university; and Chen Jinghao, needless to say, couldn't even get into a regular high school.

Since Chen Qiyun's grades are decent, it's natural that we hope she can make a run for it.

People from Lingnan, especially those from Jiangbei, tend to have a polarized attitude towards studying. They don't care if they don't pass the exam; it's not a big deal as long as they can find a job to support themselves.

But if you can get into a good school, it's a great honor for your family and ancestors, and you'd want the whole world to know.

After consulting with Chen Qiyun, Chen Jingle researched and designed a good route for her. Whether she can successfully achieve her goal depends on herself.

He might not be so keen on other things, but if someone needs money, he's happy to lend a hand.

However, since his second uncle and aunt's shop is thriving, they probably don't need his help. At least enrolling Chen Qiyun in a tutoring class shouldn't be a problem.

Their weakness lies more in the information gap.

This is precisely where Chen Jingle's strength lies.

……

Time flies like an arrow.

It's Lunar New Year's Eve again.

At noon, Chen Jingle first took Teacher Li and the two children to his parents-in-law's house for lunch. Her grandparents had come all the way from the countryside to spend the New Year with the children.

Chen Jingle didn't return with his wife and children until the afternoon.

He was in charge of cooking the family reunion dinner that night, while Jinghao and his second uncle helped out.

With a top chef at the helm, the taste is naturally exceptional.

Xiangwen and Zhuihua are nine months old and can already crawl and stand with support. Considering that learning to walk too early may affect their sense of balance, Chen Jingle did not rush to train the children's walking ability. Instead, he encouraged them to crawl and roll more.

It's better to proceed gradually.

The two children have retained their good looks from when they were born, and are becoming even more adorable. Anyone who sees them will praise them.

Teacher Li is a little worried that since she's so cute now, she might grow up to be less attractive.

"Don't worry, as long as you maintain good lifestyle habits, this won't happen." Chen Jingle just smiled at this.

He knew that many people's physical defects, such as hunchback, acne, and sunburn, were caused by bad lifestyle habits.

With a little restraint, they won't grow up to be considered unattractive.

The two little ones have shown surprisingly good learning talent, which has already begun to emerge, proving that Chen Jingle's earlier decision was correct.

The new brain is so useful!
After eating and drinking to one's heart's content—

Come on, everyone, let's take a picture together!

"3, 2, 1, Cheese!"

Chen Jingle and Li Beixing each held a child, standing smiling in the middle of the crowd.

Grandpa and Grandma sat in the front row, trying their best to straighten their already somewhat hunched bodies, revealing their missing teeth.

This is their first family photo after welcoming a new life into their family.

Four generations living together.

Next came the distribution of red envelopes, which the two little ones couldn't even hold in their tiny hands; the elders were giving them far too many.

Amidst everyone's laughter and joy, the new year quietly arrived.

……

Watching his two children grow up day by day, Chen Jingle made a decision after much deliberation.

then!

On June 30th, when he was 33 years old, he received an admission letter to Peking University for graduate studies.

The news caused a sensation among everyone.

Yes, Chen Jingle went to take the postgraduate entrance exam!

And he successfully gained admission to Kyoto University with the highest overall score!

Apart from his wife, Professor Li, few people knew beforehand, or they only knew that he wanted to pursue graduate studies, but he didn't say where he wanted to go.

Things are accomplished in secrecy.

When the results came out, everyone realized that he had been admitted to Peking University.

Kyoto University is clearly different from ordinary universities.

From his grandparents to his parents to Xiu Jie, Jing Hao, and Qi Yun, everyone was extremely excited and watched him open the admission notice.

Because the notice was delivered by post, in a small place, even the slightest rumor spread quickly, so the news didn't need to be publicized; it just spread throughout the village.

Even the villages within a ten-mile radius know that so-and-so's son from Niujiaoling has been admitted to Peking University for graduate studies.

Wow, awesome!
Faced with the villagers' envy and praise, Mom and Dad and Grandpa and Grandma were overjoyed.

Chen Jingle applied to the HSBC Business School at Peking University's Pengcheng Graduate School, majoring in Business Administration.

This isn't a part-time MBA; it's a full-time postgraduate degree.

Along with the School of Economics, the Graduate School of Economics and Management, and Guanghua School of Management at the main campus, it is known as one of the four major economics and management schools. Many graduates go on to work for companies such as CICC, CITIC Fund, insurance companies, buy-side firms, and state-owned banks. The degree is highly regarded.

It's only slightly inferior to Peking University's Guanghua School of Management and Tsinghua University's Wudaokou School of Management.

Although it is the Pengcheng campus, the admission scores are the same. Moreover, as a top university in China, Peking University has everything that the main campus should have, and the branch campus has nothing missing. The teaching staff are all of international first-class level.

When he told Li Qiguang about it before, Li Qiguang asked him, "Why did you think of going back to school?"

"I'm married, I have twins, my family isn't short of money, and the company doesn't need me to take over. In this situation, if I don't go to school, what can I do?"

Chen Jingle smiled and asked in return.

Li Qiguang was speechless for a moment. He had considered handing the company over to Chen Jingle, but Chen Jingle said that his father-in-law was in his prime and far from retirement age.

Therefore, Li Qiguang is still in charge of the company.

However, Chen Jingle's opinion is consulted on most important decisions, and he still holds the title of strategic development advisor.

Chen Jingle said, "Studying can at least improve one's level. The courses at Peking University are quite substantial. By the way, I can also make some connections and see if there's a chance to persuade a few capable people to come and help the company."

"Makes sense!"

After careful consideration, Li Qiguang decided to support his son-in-law's choice.

Chen Jingle laughed again: "Besides, even though it's full-time, I've inquired and the classes are about four hours a day. Apart from classes, the rest of the time is quite leisurely. I rent an apartment near the university town, so I can study at the same time and spend time with my wife and kids."

Li Qiguang waved his hand: "Don't bother renting anymore, just buy one. Housing prices have almost bottomed out, and they can't go much lower, especially in Shenzhen."

"It's not cheap."

Chen Jingle was surprised, because Peking University Shenzhen Campus is located in the core area of ​​Shenzhen. Although the surrounding housing prices have dropped, they are still over 8 to 9 yuan per square meter.

My family definitely doesn't have that much money to buy one; even if we did, we could only afford a small apartment.

The father-in-law's words clearly implied that he would help pay for it.

Li Qiguang remained noncommittal: "If it's a bit expensive, then so be it. Since you two aren't eligible to buy a house, just put it under the company's name and treat it as an investment."

"..."

And so the decision was made.

Hongqi is expanding rapidly and doesn't care about this additional investment, so Chen Jingle did not refuse.

After more than two years of development, Hongqi's current size is incomparable to what it was two years ago.

With nearly a hundred offline chain stores alone, its valuation has exceeded 10 billion yuan. Leveraging its comprehensive industry chain support, it has carved out a niche for itself in the community fresh food market.

They are rising stars in the market.

Although it is still far behind top brands like Qian Dama, it has already gained a certain reputation in South China and even in first- and second-tier cities in several eastern coastal provinces.

More than one investment institution has consulted me about investment-related matters.

If Chen Jingle hadn't stopped them, many people in the company would have wanted to follow the franchise model like Qian Dama, in order to achieve explosive profit growth and quickly go public to raise money.

The problem is that Chen Jingle never even considered going public.

He's in the real economy, not finance.

Resolving objections within the company is also quite simple.

Send money!

Pay the employees!

You can't have your cake and eat it too.

Once the money was distributed, the discontent immediately subsided, and everyone expressed their support for Vice President Chen's decision.

If Li Qiguang weren't the founder, everyone would want to give Chen Jingle an extra layer of clothing!

……

There was something Chen Jingle kept hidden in his heart, never uttering it aloud—

Actually, he has a bias towards prestigious universities.

This acceptance letter was a belated gift he gave to his 18-year-old self.

Tsinghua and Peking Universities are the dream schools for every student, but very few actually have the opportunity to get in.

For example, when he took the college entrance examination, there were more than 75 candidates taking the unified exam, but fewer than 150 were admitted to the two top universities.

This shows how fierce the competition is.

In contrast, it's much easier for graduate students. As long as they pass the preliminary and final exams, and perform well in the interview, they still have a chance.

As is widely known, there is a blacklist and a whitelist for postgraduate entrance exam bonuses.

Kyoto University is consistently on the honor roll. Unlike corporate recruitment, it doesn't discriminate based on background, only against those who are unsuccessful.

As everyone knows, someone who can score over 400 points on the postgraduate entrance exam may not have the same academic talent as someone from a second-tier undergraduate program or a 985 undergraduate program, but to achieve that score, they must be a very capable person.

If you have the ability, you will naturally earn the respect of others.

When Chen Jingle was interviewed, the interviewers didn't actually know his resume. In other words, Peking University didn't care which school you came from; they only cared about your performance during the interview.

Everyone was astonished when they heard him mention the large number of papers he had published.

If that's true, these grades are even comparable to doctoral students. You're telling me you graduated with a bachelor's degree and want to pursue a master's degree?

Was there any mistake? !

Keep in mind that this includes many core journals; without a mentor's background, you can imagine how rigorous the program is.

It's not like those shoddy master's theses from prestigious universities that rely on connections to produce excellent graduation theses.

Moreover, many of Chen Jingle's published papers are journals published by Peking University, and many of them involve economics and management.

Although they were taking the postgraduate entrance exam in a different major, their professional skills were in no way inferior to those students who had undergraduate degrees in economics and management, and their research achievements were far superior.

Not to mention that Chen Jingle is now a senior executive at a large company valued at several billion yuan, which is like a godsend for Peking University.

These days, student employment is a major problem, and even Kyoto University is no exception.

Therefore, after being admitted, Kyoto University directly offered him a spot in a combined master's and doctoral program, hoping that he would provide Kyoto University with a few more positions during the recruitment process.

Chen Jingle naturally wouldn't refuse such a win-win situation.

Compared to social enterprises, he actually prefers the relatively pure atmosphere of a school, even though the atmosphere of HSBC Business School may be quite different from that of a normal campus.

After all, Shenzhen is located in the developed Pearl River Delta region and is one of the four first-tier cities. Its economic development is rapid, and the atmosphere in its schools is also different from that in other cities.

Chen Jingle didn't care; he just wanted to do what he wanted to do.

Most thankfully, Li Beixing supported his idea from beginning to end, without ever expressing any concern about it interfering with his family.

Oh my god, Teacher Li is so kind!
This once again proves just how important a good wife is!

As for why Peking University was chosen instead of other universities in the province?
First of all, Tsinghua University's Shenzhen campus mainly recruits science and engineering students, and there are no suitable majors for him.

Although Harbin Institute of Technology (HIT) leans more towards science and engineering, it is still a C9 university, and its humanities programs are also quite good. If Peking University were not an option, Chen Jingle would have chosen HIT.

As for CUHK...

Although it holds an extraordinary position in the eyes of people from Southeast Asia, it has become somewhat complacent in recent years. In addition, Shenzhen is so wealthy that not only Harbin Institute of Technology and Southern University of Science and Technology, but even Shenzhen Polytechnic, a school that has only been established for a few years, is almost surpassing Sun Yat-sen University.

In terms of faculty strength, Sun Yat-sen University has fallen too far behind. Coupled with the various academic scandals in recent years, Chen Jingle thought it over and over again and did not choose it as his postgraduate entrance examination candidate.

If you want to pursue a purely academic path, SUSTech is actually a good choice, just look at the number of academicians they have...

To fulfill his childhood dream of attending a top university, Chen Jingle ultimately had no choice but to reluctantly choose Peking University.

Fortunately, I made it ashore smoothly.

A student from a second-tier university making a comeback to become a top student—no, I mean top student, since he's now a student at Peking University—this kind of thing is still big news even today.

Who doesn't love a story of a loser's rise to success? After all, most people are just ordinary.

……

Chen Jingle is packing his luggage.

I'm leaving for school tomorrow to register.

The two little ones were clinging to him, pulling at his clothes.

"Dad, what are you doing?" Two-year-old Chen Zhuihua asked with wide eyes.

"Pack your bags, we're going to Shenzhen tomorrow," Chen Jingle replied with a smile.

Chen Xiangwen asked curiously, "Where is Pengcheng?"

Chen Zhuihua then asked, "Why go to Shenzhen?"

Chen Jingle put down what he was holding, picked up the two children, and led them to the national map in the study: "Look, this is Pengcheng, and this is our hometown in Jiangbei. As for why we're going to Pengcheng, it's because Daddy's going to study there. What, you don't want to come with Daddy?"

"Where's Mom?" The two little ones immediately turned around to look for their mother.

Chen Jingle, his face dark, ignored Li Beixing, who was leaning against the doorframe laughing loudly, and sighed helplessly, "Mom will naturally go too. Wherever Dad is, Mom will be too."

Li Beixing suppressed her smile, but the corners of her mouth still curled up.

Despite having two children, their relationship did not grow colder; on the contrary, it became even closer.

"Then I...I want to go too."

"I am me too."

The two children were vying with each other.

"Don't worry, Mom and Dad will definitely take you two with them." Chen Jingle helped them back to their room to continue packing their luggage.

"What about grandpa and grandma, maternal grandpa and maternal grandma, and great-grandpa?" Chen Zhuihua asked again.

Chen Xiangwen, not to be outdone, added: "And Aunt Qiyun too."

Chen Jingle smiled slightly: "Pengcheng is not far from Jiangbei. It only takes a little over three hours by high-speed rail. When you have a holiday, Dad will take you back to our hometown for a visit, okay?"

"Good~"

The two little ones spoke in unison.

"You two, come here quickly, don't delay your father's work." Li Beixing stepped forward and led the two little ones out.

Chen Jing watched with a chuckle, then lowered his head to continue packing his luggage.

Although his father-in-law helped solve the housing problem, it was still a family of four moving, and Chen Jingle was the kind of person who didn't like extravagance and waste. Apart from some things that could be bought later, there were still quite a few other things to bring.

After nearly ten years, returning to campus life brings a mix of nervousness and trepidation, but mostly anticipation.

We look forward to seeing how much benefit Peking University can bring him.

After all, he came here to learn, not to gain prestige.

Everyone says that HSBC Business School is a tough place to stay, very demanding, but for Chen Jingle, nothing is impossible if you're willing to climb.

Is he the kind of person who's afraid of getting things done?
It's simply a matter of going through the educational process again.

This time, he has the system's assistance, his wife and children by his side, and his family's support. What is there to worry about?
Just do it!

……

after many years.

Thanks to Chen Jingle's efforts, the Hongqi Group, which he took over from his father-in-law Li Qiguang, has become a nationally renowned outstanding enterprise.

Although it is not listed, its valuation exceeds 10 billion.

Hongqi's fame stems not only from its substantial market share in the fresh produce sector and the customer's confidence in the price and quality of its products, but also from the boss's friendly treatment of his employees, making him a model of integrity in the industry.

As everyone knows, Hongqi is famous for its high salaries and benefits, from headquarters to small stores to factory assembly line workers, all of whom are among the best in the industry.

The resulting chain reaction is that when people think about buying fruits and vegetables, they will subconsciously consider Hongqi.

Before this, when people mentioned conscientious enterprises, the first things that came to mind were Donglai Supermarket in Central China and Mr. Cui's mining company.

Today's Hongqi, though not as good as others, is not bad either.

At least in the small territory of Lingnan, it truly became the source of livelihood for millions of canal workers, a position where a stomp of its foot would cause a tremor.

It has already been listed at the very top, and is deeply integrated with the rural areas and agriculture below.

These days, rural issues are undoubtedly of paramount importance.

Hongqi solved the problem of feeding millions of rural families, while its seed research and development center also broke through several foreign technological blockades.

These days, there's no shortage of people who shout slogans, but a lack of people who can actually get things done and solve problems.

Therefore, it is only natural that his status would rise accordingly.

The Chen's Fast Food Restaurant, which my parents have worked hard to run, has already opened its seventh branch, all run by relatives. They may not be the most successful, but at least everyone can make a living.

Teacher Li is still unemployed at home.

Similar to Chen Jingle, time hasn't left many marks on her face; she's still so gentle and beautiful, and has always stood firmly by his side.

The two children are growing up healthy and happy, and they are almost graduating from elementary school now.

Time flies so fast.

There was a time when Chen Jingle thought he would retire at 30, or at most 35, to fully enjoy life.

But now it seems that it won't work; the responsibility on his shoulders is too great, so great that he dares not easily let go.

But it's alright, he can still hold on.

Every time we encounter difficulties and setbacks, it's simply another charge towards the mountain.

True materialists are fearless.

This relatively young soldier possessed the strength to sweep away fallen leaves like an autumn wind.

As for how far it will ultimately go and what it will become...

Let time and history prove it.

"Mr. Chen, good news! The average yield per mu (unit of land area) in our large-scale rice planting fields has reached 1200 jin (unit of weight) this year!"

The middle-aged agricultural expert wearing a straw hat next to him excitedly said after receiving a set of data from his assistant.

Chen Jingle snapped out of his interrupted thoughts, looked down and grasped the heavy ears of rice, and replied with a smile, "Very good!"

Another year, the crops ripen.
