I suggest you investigate; this person doesn't seem to be a first-time reborn individual.

When Lin Ran and his group came out of the 360 ​​headquarters, he made a special detour to the security booth to say hello.

The group had already changed their clothes, and the ladder was left at 360's general affairs office.

We can't exactly carry a ladder back to Jiangning, can we?

The security guard nodded cheerfully to Lin Ran, wondering who these people were. Their figures seemed vaguely familiar.

He didn't think much of it and continued smoking.

While waiting for a taxi by the roadside, apart from Lin Ran, the other four people still looked somewhat lost.

Tang Chen pushed up his glasses, seemingly wanting to say something but then stopping himself.

Zhuge Zhuangshi rubbed his hands together, looked at Lin Ran, and then lowered his head.

Sima Zhongyi simply stared at the ground, lost in thought.

The three exchanged glances, and then all looked at Xia Chan.

Xia Chan felt those three gazes and was speechless.

What do you mean? Are you making me the one to stick my neck out again?

However, she was indeed curious whether Zhou Hongyi's visit to 360 counted as a successful transaction, since Zhou Hongyi hadn't officially stated her position.

She glanced at Lin Ran's expressionless face, then at the expectant eyes of the three people, and finally sighed.

"Boss, did we reach an agreement or not?"

The others had the same question, but fearing ridicule from the boss, they all looked at Xia Chan with admiration.

Summer cicadas are simply the best mouth double out of 108!

Lin Ran glanced at her sideways: "Nonsense, is there anything the boss can't handle?"

"Why didn't Boss Zhou formally agree to our request? Like, sign a contract or something?"

Lin Ran looked at her like she was an idiot: "You can't expect a boss with 3 million users to just tell you bluntly, 'Okay, your idea is good, I agree,' can you?"

"So what would it mean for him to agree?"

Lin Ran remained silent.

"Boss, when are we going back to Jiangning?"

Lin Ran remained silent.

"Boss, what were you whispering to Zhou Hongyi just now? I saw his face change."

Lin Ran flagged down a taxi and pointed at Xia Chan's nose: "If you say another word, I'll leave you here alone. The four of us can fit in one car."

Xia Chan pouted and finally behaved herself.

Being a completely unfamiliar place in the capital, she, a young girl, was genuinely a little scared.

At 10 p.m., Lin Ran brought Xia Chan back to Jiangning.

Before leaving, the group went to Haidian University Town. As Zhuge and Sima had predicted, the offline event for Momo was not going well.

The label "hookup app" is now practically a permanent part of Momo.

Lin Ran randomly picked a shopping mall to conduct research, and the mall staff immediately shook their heads when they heard that Momo was coming to hold an event.

If this kind of software comes to our mall for promotions, what kind of talk will it make? This is a respectable place.

The situation is similar among college students. Nobody dares to openly admit to participating in Momo's activities, fearing gossip. In the past, curiosity could attract people, but now that curiosity has faded, and all that's left is to avoid suspicion.

Tang Chen and Zhuge Zhuangshi were left in Beijing. Tang Chen was responsible for coordinating several technical issues with 360, while Zhuge Zhuangshi continued his offline promotion work.

Lin Ran's request to him was: it doesn't matter if it costs more money, the event must continue, and everything will improve after the press conference.

Sima Zhongyi was sent to Yuezhou, where he continued to promote offline activities.

Therefore, only Lin Ran and Xia Chan returned to Jiangning.

The car drove up to the girls' dormitory building.

Lin Ran looked at the various bags in the trunk and then at the pile of things on the back seat, and was speechless.

The pastry boxes from Daoxiangcun, the pickles from Liubiju, the braised pork hock from Tianfuhao, and several bags printed with "BJ Specialty Products" were piled up like a small mountain.

"Did you go to buy more goods?"

Xia Chan chuckled twice: "It's my first time going to Beijing, so I have to bring back some things, right? Something for my mom, something for my roommate, and something for my cousin..."

Xia Chan has already received her salary twice, making her quite wealthy compared to other college students. She was very generous during her trip to Beijing.

Lin Ran hadn't originally planned to buy anything, but before Xia Chan went to buy local specialties, she asked him if he wanted her to bring him something back. After thinking about it, he asked Xia Chan to buy a few things for him.

The three boxes of pastries included two beautifully packaged gift boxes, one for Li Futing and the other for Huang Lingyue.

Since it's about carrying water, it has to be kept level.

The other box was loose, with various flavors mixed together. I took it back to the dorm and shared it with the three guys.

There was also a box of Zhang Yiyuan's tea, jasmine tea. The packaging looked quite legitimate. This was for Wang Lijun, since he had helped a lot in the early stages, and Wang Lijun would need to trouble him again when the company was established.

Lin Ran took the bags out of the car one by one and stacked them on the ground. Xia Chan stood beside him, looking at the mountain of things, feeling a little worried.

"Boss, how do I carry this upstairs?"

Lin Ran looked at the pile of things, then at Xia Chan's small frame.

He sighed. "Wait."

He picked up three or four bags in one hand and walked into the dormitory building.

Xia Chan followed behind, carrying the remaining items, staggering along.

The dormitory supervisor was sitting at the door when she saw a man come in. Just as she was about to stop him, she saw Lin Ran put his things on the ground and turn around to leave.

It took three trips to move all the stuff in.

Lin Ran stood in the stairwell and patted the dust off his hands.

"Alright, carry it up yourself."

Looking at his strikingly handsome face, Xia Chan was suddenly moved.

Although the boss is a scoundrel, he's actually quite reliable when it matters.

"Thank you, boss!"

Lin Ran waved his hand and turned to walk out.

Lin Ran returned to the dormitory carrying a few things, and was still on the phone with Wu Chenhao when she opened the door.

"Okay, let's check it out tomorrow morning after we get to 108..."

In the dormitory, Ding Facai was washing up in the bathroom, while Zhao Feiyu and Liu Zhihua lay on their beds, lewdly grinning, doing who-knows-what.

Seeing that Lin Ran was still on the phone, the two of them refrained from greeting him.

Lin Ran put the things on the table, turned around and went to the balcony. Those two guys' lewd laughter was too mesmerizing, and he was afraid it would interfere with his phone call.

Ding Facai came out of the bathroom while wiping his face. He immediately saw the pastries on Lin Ran's table. The two beautifully packaged boxes were obviously gifts, while the other loose pastry was clearly brought for them.

Besides, didn't Lin Laosi say that what you see is yours?

Ding Facai exclaimed in shock, "Damn it, brothers!"

Looking at his phone, Liu Zhihua said in dissatisfaction, "Go to hell, Ding Facai, what are you doing messing with us?"

Ding Facai: "..."

"Lin Laosi brought us some Beijing specialties, are you sure you don't want to try them?"

"Holy crap! What is that?" Zhao Feiyu and Liu Zhihua immediately jumped out of bed.

Five minutes later, Lin Ran finished his call, opened the balcony door, and found that the three of them had already eaten most of the pastries.

He was taken aback: "Five pounds of pastries, and you guys finished them all in such a short time?"

"You're not so bad, you actually have some conscience. You even brought back some local specialties from Beijing to show your respect to us."

Lin Ran sneered: "You guys can eat all you want, especially you, Zhao Feiyu. It's only been a few months since university started, and you've already gained weight. I think your Engel coefficient is the result of your actions."

Zhao Feiyu was taken aback: "Huh? You, who never attends classes, actually know Engel's coefficient?"

Lin Ran ignored him.

Zhao Feiyu chewed on the mung bean cake indistinctly, muttering, "That old Engel himself chews on dry bread every day, what does he know?"
