The younger generation, starting from where the wind blows...

Chapter 355 Wu Liuyi's sister, Wu Shiyi?
Tour guide?

A hint of interest appeared in Yang Tao's eyes.

She initially took the tour guide exam not only to increase her competitiveness in the job market but also primarily because she wanted to get free admission to scenic spots.

At that time, I thought that I would use my spare time to travel around all the beautiful mountains and rivers of our motherland.

But after returning to work, I realized that even during my rest time, all I wanted to do was lie at home.

That's why they say you need money and free time to go out and have fun.

This "leisure" doesn't just refer to having time, but also having the mind to enjoy it.

To put it bluntly, it all comes down to money.

Only by achieving financial freedom can one truly enjoy life.

Ordinary people can only try their best to live.

"You know what, this time I resigned, and I'm really planning to take a vacation and travel around."

Yang Tao took a sip of the coffee the waiter brought and said with a smile.

Jiao Yang hadn't even had a chance to drink his coffee before looking up and asking, "Where are you planning to go?"

"It's not decided yet."

Yang Tao shrugged: "I might go on a trip along the Dali, Lijiang, and Shangri-La route."

Jiao Yang looked on with envy. He also wanted to take a spontaneous trip, but his work and his wallet wouldn't allow it.

"only you?"

Yang Tao nodded. This is the current plan.

Lijiang and Shangri-La are just places I'll visit on the way; my main goal is to explore Dali.

Jiao Yang then asked, "What about finding a job?"

Yang Tao took a sip of coffee: "Let's talk about it when we get back. Becoming a tour guide at a travel agency, like you said, wouldn't be bad."

Jiao Yang put down his coffee: "Okay, I'll keep an eye out for you and let you know as soon as there's any news."

Yang Tao was just about to say thank you when her phone suddenly vibrated.

When I took it out, I saw it was a text message from Liu Qing.

"Senior, I just received a call from President Gao. Her flight to Yanjing is at 1 p.m. today. I guess she'll be staying at the Fairfield Hotel."

After reading the text message, Yang Tao knew that the New Year's Eve gala ticket she gave to Liu Qing had not been wasted.

This tip-off was remarkably timely.

Although it was no longer of any use, Yang Tao still sent Liu Qing a text message back.

"Thank you for letting me know in time... but I have already resigned."

I sent the message and was just about to put my phone back in my bag.

Suddenly a phone call came in.

It is Xue Sumei.

Yang Tao answered the phone in front of Jiao Yang.

"Mom, what's going on?"

"Have you finished your business?"

"It's all done. I'm having coffee with a friend right now."

"What kind of friend, male or female?"

Yang Tao handed the phone directly to Jiao Yang and asked him to speak.

Jiao Yang took the phone.

"Auntie, it's me, Jiao Yang... Yes, yes, Yang Tao's college classmate. You have such a good memory, you still remember me even though it's been more than a year since we graduated."

"Girlfriend? No, I don't have one yet. I'm not even stable at work right now, just drifting along. I don't have time to look... What, introduce someone to Yang Tao?"

Jiao Yang looked up, his face showing a troubled expression.

Before he could speak, Yang Tao snatched the phone away.

"Mom, are you ever going to stop? Why do you ask everyone you meet to introduce me to a boyfriend? I've told you so many times, I'm not in a hurry to date!"

"Fine, the emperor isn't in a hurry, but I, the eunuch, am!" Xue Sumei complained irritably.

Yang Tao didn't want to listen to Xue Sumei's nagging: "If you have nothing else, I'll hang up now."

"Wait a minute."

Xue Sumei called out to Yang Tao, "Remember to come back for lunch. Your sister and brother-in-law are coming too."

"They've already returned from their honeymoon?"

"The plane arrived at around 1 a.m. today. Your sister just called me and said that Xifeng has made plans to have dinner with friends tonight, so he can only come over around noon... Anyway, I have to go buy groceries. Come back early."

After saying that, Xue Sumei hung up the phone.

Yang Tao put her phone back in her bag and looked up to see Jiao Yang standing up with his phone in his hand.

"Yang Tao, I'm sorry, I just received a call from the station leader asking me to go back. I have to go right away."

Yang Tao picked up her bag and stood up: "I should probably head back too, let's go together."

Jiao Yang waved to the waiter to come over, ready to pay the bill.

Yang Tao stopped them.

"Why are you being so polite with me here?"

Jiao Yang had no choice but to put away his wallet.

After Yang Tao paid the bill, the two left the hotel together.

Yang Tao first drove Jiao Yang back to the TV station, and then went home herself.

On the way, Yang Tao received a call from Yang Muye.

"You resigned?"

"What, now you don't want me to leave?"

“I really can’t bear to part with you. Why don’t you come back after my mom finishes acquiring the hotel? I’ll give you a promotion and a raise, help you marry a rich and handsome man, and reach the pinnacle of life.”

"All you do is make empty promises," Yang Tao said irritably, her hands on the steering wheel.

"I'm serious. If you're willing to go back, you can choose any position below general manager."

"Thank you, but I've thought about it seriously. I should try different jobs while I'm young."

"For example?"

"I have not decided yet."

"You quit your job without thinking it through? Just because you're pretty doesn't mean you can do whatever you want."

"I'm tired and want to rest for a while. Is it okay if I go on a trip?"

"Where are you going on a trip? Can I come along?"

"You're not going to class?"

"You can ask for leave, or if you really can't, you can just fail the course."

"Let's forget about it. If you fail a course as an exchange student at Dongda University, where will we, the students of Yanjing University of Economics and Business, put our faces?"

"If I fail a course, do you believe that the University of Tokyo is actually more worried than I am?"

Although Yang Muyi's words had an element of showing off, he was not joking.

Two famous college dropouts from their past lives, Bill Gates and Mark Zuckerberg, were awarded honorary degrees by Harvard years later in recognition of their outstanding achievements in business.

The truth is, the label of "dropout" sounds bad, making it seem like their success has little to do with their school.

The more prestigious the university, like Harvard, the more it cares about its image.

Harvard went to great lengths to ensure that these two dropouts could graduate smoothly.

Yang Muyi dares not say that his future achievements in China's Internet industry will surpass those of the chosen ones like Bill Gates and Mark Zuckerberg, but he can't let the reborn down, can he?

If he fails a course during his exchange program at the University of Tokyo, he will not only lose face for himself, but also for the University of Tokyo.

The better Yang Muye does in the future, the more Dongda loses face.

If the school had any foresight, it wouldn't have let this happen.

"Fine, we know you have a lot of influence, and the school has to fawn over you, okay?" Yang Tao said irritably.

So you agreed to take me on this trip?

"Dream on. You should stay at school and study hard. I'm going out to clear my head. It'll be nice and quiet by myself."

"Where are you planning to go to clear your head?" "Guess?"

"You're not here to find me in Shanghai, are you?"

"Stop dreaming, I'm going to a place you'd never guess... Okay, I'm not talking to you anymore, I'm almost home, I need to find a parking spot."

-

Magic City.

Love Apartment.

Yang Muye put down his phone, thought for a moment, and then dialed Li Na's number again.

"Did you have any dealings with security companies when you were Luo Bin's secretary?"

"After a few meetings, Mr. Yang wants to hire bodyguards?"

“I have a friend who is planning to travel alone. I’m a little worried about her and I’m thinking of hiring a bodyguard for her.”

Yang Muye didn't hide much from Li Na.

Li Na did not disappoint Yang Muye's trust and immediately guessed his true intentions.

"Female bodyguard?"

"Correct."

"do you have any requests?"

"Strong professional skills, and not a novice... If possible, not too ugly either."

Yang Muye's purpose was not just to find a bodyguard for Yang Tao, but also to hope that the other party could become Yang Tao's travel companion.

In the words of a past life, it means not only protecting Yang Tao's personal safety, but also providing emotional value.

After all, traveling with bodyguards and traveling with friends are completely different experiences.

That's why Yang Muye has certain requirements regarding the appearance of his female bodyguards.

People gather in kind, and things are divided into groups.

It's difficult for two women who are complete strangers with vastly different appearances to become friends in a short period of time.

It's fortunate that this bodyguard was hired for Yang Tao, otherwise Li Na would definitely have overthought things.

Li Na was very efficient; she quickly contacted a security company and found a suitable candidate.

"Wu Shiyi, a Taekwondo athlete, was admitted to Shanghai University of Sport at the age of 19. He won the National Free Fighting Championship at the age of 22. After graduating, he worked in the security industry and became an A-level bodyguard within a year."

As Li Na explained, she handed a file to Yang Muye.

Yang Muye's eyes flickered slightly as he looked at the photo of Wu Shiyi in the file.

It was another "acquaintance".

Coincidentally, she is the same age as Yang Tao.

This shows that Li Na is meticulous in her work.

After putting down the documents, Yang Muyi turned to look at Xu Sanduo beside him.

"I remember your comrade-in-arms was named Wu Liuyi, right? Why don't you call him and ask if he has a sister named Wu Shiyi?"

Without saying a word, Xu Sanduo immediately made a phone call to Wu Liuyi.

"Mr. Yang, I've asked around. They just have similar names, but they don't know each other."

Yang Muye nodded.

That makes sense. If Wu Liuyi and Wu Shiyi were really related, Wu Shiyi would have already recruited him into the security company.

After all, besides professional skills, the most important quality for a bodyguard is loyalty.

In this respect, athletes can't compare to veterans.

Yang Muye handed the documents back to Li Na: "She's the one. Buy her a plane ticket to Yanjing, before today."

-

Yanjing.

Yang Tao's dining room.

Xue Sumei prepared a lavish meal, so much so that the table was almost overflowing.

Duan Xifeng picked up his chopsticks and first placed Su Qing's favorite stir-fried fermented bean curd in her bowl.

"Auntie, you've made way too much food. There are only four of us. How can we possibly eat all of this?"

Xue Sumei said with a smile, "It's alright. You might not be used to the food when you go on a trip. You can eat more when you come back."

Su Qing immediately looked up: "Auntie, I'm so used to your cooking, I really don't feel like eating out this time."
Xue Sumei piled a bunch of food into Su Qing's bowl: "Eat more if you like it. Get your body in good shape, and then you can start thinking about having children."

Before Su Qing could speak, Duan Xifeng interjected, "Auntie is right. Su Qing and I were just discussing this matter."
Su Qing glared at Duan Xifeng, annoyed.

"Auntie, don't listen to his nonsense. I don't plan to have children for the time being."

"Qing'er, your aunt has been through this. You should have children early. The risks increase after you turn thirty."

Duan Xifeng also chimed in, "You have to listen to your aunt on this matter; it's better to have a baby sooner rather than later."

Su Qing's words were no match for the two of them.
Not to mention that Xue Sumei was the elder who raised him single-handedly.
Seeing that it was inappropriate to refute her directly, Su Qing set her sights on Yang Tao, who was eating with her head covered across from her.

"Auntie, stop pressuring me to have a baby. Taozi's life-long happiness hasn't been settled yet!"

"You think I didn't urge her?"

Mentioning this, Xue Sumei got angry: "They told me they don't have any plans to date for the time being, and they think I'm more anxious than they are!"

Yang Tao put down her chopsticks: "Mom, you said that yourself. I never said that."

Xue Sumei wouldn't back down an inch: "Then why don't you find me a boyfriend to shut me up? Don't try to fool me with someone like Xiao Yang again!"

Su Qing kicked Duan Xifeng hard under the table.

It's all your fault for bringing up the topic of having children.

This has caused Xue Sumei and Yang Tao to start arguing again.

Knowing he was in the wrong, Duan Xifeng quickly stepped in to smooth things over: "Auntie, this is also my fault. If it weren't for the problem with the best man I found before, Taozi wouldn't have been forced to find someone to impersonate her boyfriend."

Su Qing nodded hurriedly from the side.

Xue Sumei sighed.

To be honest, she also bears some responsibility in this matter.

It was she and Su Qing who initially discussed using the idea of ​​finding a best man to test the relationship between Yang Tao and Yang Muye.

Actually, Yang Muyi is quite good too.

He's perfect in every way, except he's a bit too young.

She is five years younger than Yang Tao.

If the two of them could really get together, Xue Sumei would accept it.

But the two of them were just acting.

Xue Sumei shook her head whenever she thought about this.

Seeing that the atmosphere was getting awkward, Yang Tao quickly changed the subject.

"Sis, did you and your brother-in-law have a good time in the Maldives?"

Su Qing and Duan Xifeng exchanged a glance.

"It's great, the scenery there is really beautiful. It's just a little regrettable. Before we left, I should have asked Guoran to teach me how to take pictures with a DSLR camera. Although we took a lot of pictures with our point-and-shoot camera, they didn't turn out very well."

As soon as Duan Xifeng finished speaking, Xue Sumei's voice rang out.

"You're out having fun, not specifically to take photos. Why worry about all that? If you want good photos, go to a photo studio and find a professional photographer to take them for you."

"Mom, this is completely different, okay? Besides, these days, photo studios are all the same, the market is highly homogenized. Anyway, I definitely won't go to a photo studio for my wedding."

Before Yang Tao could finish speaking, Xue Sumei turned to look at her:
"So when is 'later'?"

"..."

Yang Tao was speechless for a moment.

Can't we even have a proper conversation?

At Su Qing's prompting, Duan Xifeng once again stepped in to smooth things over:
“Auntie, I think Peach’s idea is really good. If there were a travel option where you could take photos while traveling, Su Qing and I would definitely try it. We might even take wedding photos again.”

The speaker is unintentional and the listener is interested.

Yang Tao felt as if a bolt of lightning had struck her mind.

Traveling + taking wedding photos, that sounds like a great idea!
