Reborn in 2000: I just want to love a few people properly.

The interview results were sent via text message, and Xu Bo was unsurprisingly selected for the External Relations Department.

Xu Bo was fast asleep in his dormitory when he heard the news.

"Wake up, the sports meet opening ceremony is later, and our class has a long-distance running event this morning." Du Qinglong finished a set of punches and pulled Xu Bo out of bed.

"I won't go. You're all class officers, so I have no obligation to go. I'll go to the store after I wake up."

Wang Yan was lying in bed, not wanting to move, but unexpectedly, Xu Bo slapped him on the neck and woke him up.

"Wake up! I've already found shops in Hangzhou, and I've roughly decided on the locations for two of them." Xu Bo took out a wad of cash from his wallet and threw it onto his bed.

"Quickly count them, contact Song Leisong, go to the train station and buy two tickets to Jinling, and have him find Chen Ying."

"Go...where to?" Wang Yan paused for a few seconds, seemingly trying to determine if he was dreaming.

"Go to Jinling and find Chen Ying with Song Leisong. You two need to find a few suitable shops in Jinling. I'll come find you as soon as I'm done here."

There was no time to spare, so Xu Bo left without waiting for Wang Yan's agreement or not, heading straight for the playground.

In any case, Wang Yan will eventually agree, since he is also one of the shareholders.

When they arrived at the playground, Xu Bo found Xu Yuanping, who was at the front of the line cheering for his classmates.

"Remember to conserve your energy later. Don't rush to the front at the beginning. Just follow behind whoever is running the fastest, and sprint in the last hundred meters."

Zhang Haifeng and Nie Qi nodded and then greeted the class monitor.

"Alright, you guys warm up first." Seeing that Xu Bo had arrived, Xu Yuanping had something to discuss with him.

"I heard you skipped Professor Wen Chao's class?" Xu Yuan said with a flat face and an annoyed tone.

Xu Bo gave an awkward smile and was about to defend himself when Xu Yuanping waved his hand and continued, "I'm not blaming you. I overheard it in the office. I heard that your group's work in the entrepreneurship competition received high recognition from the organizing committee."

"I reckon I'll definitely win the first prize."

Xu Yuanping had been putting on a very good act just now. Ever since he learned this inside information, he had been quite proud of himself. At this moment, he couldn't hide the pride on his face and patted Xu Bo on the shoulder.

"Hey, first prize, is there any money to be won?" Xu Bo didn't care. His biggest worry right now was money.

Xu Yuanping was a little angry when he heard this, and quickly slapped Xu Bo on the back of the head and scolded him, "What are you thinking, you brat? Winning the first prize is the greatest honor. This is something that money can't buy."

After chatting for a while, Xu Bo finally remembered the important matter and said, "Instructor, I figured the National Day holiday would be right after the sports meet, so I won't be at school for the next couple of days."

Xu Yuanping narrowed his eyes and sized Xu Bo up and down before finally speaking, "What do you want to do?"

Xu Bo scratched his head and said, "I'm going to start a catering company now. That store outside is going to become a chain. I signed a performance-based agreement with someone. What I need most now is time to open the store."

Frowning slightly, Xu Yuanping pulled Xu Bo to a corner where no one could see him.

"How much?"

"It'll probably come to around five million in total," Xu Bo said hesitantly.

"How much...how much?"

Xu Yuanping thought that Xu Bo was only involved in a few hundred thousand yuan this time, so if problems arose, he could ask the school leaders to step in and alleviate the pressure.

Unexpectedly, Xu Bo actually made several million yuan, which is no small sum.

"Five million." Xu Bo was confident that he could find a good location for the shop when he signed the contract with Zhong Weiyong.

"You! You!" Xu Yuanping didn't know what to say. Xu Bo's family was just a working-class family, and his father was a teacher. If something went wrong, how would they fill the gap?

"Don't worry, counselor, I've basically handled it properly now."

Xu Bo felt a warmth in his heart when he saw his advisor who was worried about him, and quickly comforted him.

At the same time, feeling that he should leave now, he quickly spoke up.

"Don't worry, counselor. I'll be going now. I've been incredibly busy these past two days."

"Get lost." Xu Yuanping waved his hand, signaling Xu Bo to leave.

Xu Bo took out a cigarette, put it in Xu Yuanping's mouth, lit it, and then slowly left.

Surrounded by small trees and rarely visited by people, this is a great place to smoke.

……

First, Xu Bo found Bai Feifei on the playground. Under the watchful eyes of her roommate, Xu Bo recruited Bai Feifei away.

Arriving at a shady spot, Xu Bo spoke.

"Today I'm going to sign a contract, and afterwards I'm going to Nanjing."

With a slight frown, Bai Feifei asked softly, "What are you going to Jinling for?"

Xu Bo reached out and gently rubbed Bai Feifei's earlobe, while simultaneously swatting her cheek, and then spoke.

"I was lucky yesterday and found two suitable shops. Hangzhou can only accommodate three Hailaola restaurants at the moment. I plan to open the remaining three in Nanjing and Shanghai. Now I want to make a name for myself in the Yangtze River Delta."

With his hands restless, Xu Bo grasped the girl's fair arms and began to gently press down with his fingertips.

"Then you need to be careful. I'll take good care of the shop for you."

"Give me a hug? We probably won't see each other for the next few days."

Taking advantage of his good mood, Xu Bo boldly made his request.

Looking around, there didn't seem to be many people, and their attention was all focused on the long-distance running students.

Bai Feifei's cheeks flushed, and she boldly opened her arms to Xu Bo.

Seeing this, Xu Bo did not hesitate and pulled the girl into his arms, carefully feeling the tenderness and softness coming from his chest.

Like lying on a comfortable bed, covered with a soft blanket, and smelling the fragrance of jasmine, Xu Bo unconsciously tightened his embrace, while his right hand began to wander.

Bai Feifei struggled free when her fingers began to move downwards, just before they touched the chasm.

Finally, with no other option, Xu Bo gently tapped the ball, causing a slight ripple, before letting go.

Seeing the girl's shy expression, Xu Bo couldn't help but hold the rosy apple in his hands and kiss her on the forehead.

"Let's go, don't overwork yourself, I'll treat you to something delicious when we get back."

After saying that, Xu Bo turned around and left the playground after jogging a few steps.

Feeling the delicate warmth on his lips, Xu Bo smacked his lips with lingering pleasure.

After taking out his phone and calling Gu Lin to tell her about his itinerary, Xu Bo felt he couldn't show favoritism, so he also called He Yimei.

"Where are you? I'm heading towards your school now. I'm going to Jinling today and I'll probably be staying there for three or four days. I wanted to see you one last time before I left."

Xu Bo got straight to the point.

"I'm in my dorm. Just come downstairs to our building, I'll tidy up and come down."

The girl's voice sounded like she had just woken up; it was languid and soft.
