The father hesitated to speak - he wanted to ask his daughter why she had to marry that boy, but he changed his mind and realized that it was not appropriate to say this.

Some things are useless to talk about. Only the person involved can make the choice whether to turn back after hitting the wall or to keep moving forward after breaking through the wall.

Her father stepped out and closed the door, leaving her alone in the bedroom.

Shen Lan picked up the phone and selected Xu Zhe's number, but just lowered her head and looked at it without dialing.

Reason told her that tonight's progress was enough and there was no point in being greedy.

But her emotions still urged her to ask for more and find more time to spend with that person.

----

At the end of June, the first-year junior high school students finished their final exams, and at the beginning of July they returned to school and received their transcripts.

This morning, our homeroom teacher, Mr. Sun, said on the podium: "Tao Ying and Mao Kainan, go back and inform your parents to speak at the parents' meeting this afternoon."

When the whole class heard that the role model candidate had suddenly changed, they immediately became nervous.

Then I heard Teacher Sun continue to say: "This time, Xu Zhe is still the first, and Song Xingye is still the second. But I have seen clearly that your experience is of no reference value to other students, so I will not trouble you two."

Some students laughed quietly.

Song Xingye also covered her mouth and smiled. She glanced at Xu Zhe beside her and noticed the slightly raised corners of his mouth. Then, for some unknown reason, the girl became even happier.

The fact that I maintained good grades with him seemed more exciting than getting good grades myself.

Teacher Sun finished talking about the safety precautions during the summer vacation as usual, and then walked down from the podium to leave. But at this moment, she noticed Xu Zhe's raised hand.

So the head teacher came to him and asked, "Do you have anything else to say?"

Xu Zhe whispered, "Can I not do my summer homework?"

Teacher Sun couldn't help but stare at him: "You mean all the homework?"

Xu Zhe nodded and explained, "I want to learn more by myself. I have already learned the second and third year of junior high school. I plan to take a look at the high school during the summer vacation."

Teacher Sun: “…”

Xu Zhe: “Is it okay?”

Teacher Sun sighed and said, "Okay, you are the top student in the grade again. Just study if you want to."

Although the teacher was sighing, Song Xingye on the side could hear that beneath Teacher Sun's apparent helplessness, there was actually a lot of preference and appreciation hidden.

Then the head teacher turned and walked out. Before the next teacher came to assign homework, the classroom became lively for a short time.

Wenhao left his seat again, ran to Xuzhe's table, and said, "I just heard it. You are really good, you can have a good time during the summer vacation!"

Xu Zhe smiled but did not explain that he actually had other plans for this summer vacation.

Chapter 96 Mercury

"You know, our class teacher said that my parents should speak at the parents' meeting because I am in the top ten in the class!"

As soon as Tang Lingfei said this, Xu Zhe and Song Xingye both applauded her.

Song Xingye smiled happily: "Our tutoring is effective, your parents will definitely be very satisfied."

“They are absolutely super satisfied!”

When Tang Lingfei said the word "super", her tone was drawn out, with the kind of cuteness that only little girls can have.

Xu Zhe: "So you won't continue studying and improving during the summer vacation?"

Song Xingye smiled and said, "It's not easy to get a holiday, let her play for a few days first, don't rush her to study."

But at this time, Tang Lingfei's smile faded and she sighed, "But my Chinese teacher criticized me, saying that my composition was too bad, so my Chinese score was not high..."

Song Xingye: "Then practice writing essays."

Tang Lingfei: "How do I practice writing essays?"

Song Xingye thought for a moment and said, "For example, writing a diary."

"Who would write this seriously..." Xu Zhe suppressed the urge to make a joke, "Forget it, I didn't say anything, you guys continue. Xiao Ye just said to write a diary, is this the way to practice writing?"

Song Xingye: "Yes, just record one thing every day, 500 words or 200 words is fine, even if it's just 100 words, as long as you write down the thing that impressed you the most today, it will be very effective."

Tang Lingfei couldn't help but ask: "Do you also write a diary like this?"

Song Xingye smiled and said, "I wrote like this from the second to fifth grade of elementary school. I stopped writing after the sixth grade because it didn't have much training effect on me after that."

Tang Lingfei frowned, feeling that what her best friend said was not simple: "You mean, my current writing level is about the same as your fifth grade?"

Song Xingye stuck out her tongue but was too embarrassed to say it.

Xu Zhe was not embarrassed at all and said bluntly: "Her fifth grade is the upper limit of your writing ability, don't make a mistake. The lower limit is second grade, anyway, it's in between."

Tang Lingfei: "How can it be so exaggerated!"

Song Xingye covered her mouth and laughed secretly. However, before Feifei got angry, she quickly changed the subject: "There is a small shop at the school gate. Let's go there and pick out a nice diary with Feifei, shall we?"

----

The diary that Tang Lingfei picked is very delicate and beautiful, mainly in pink and blue tones, and it also comes with a small lock.

Seeing the girl coming out with a new notebook, Xu Zhe suddenly asked, "Will your parents peek at your diary?"

Tang Lingfei thought about it, still a little hesitant: "I don't know, I've never written a diary before except for the homework assigned by the school. You know what the school assigns, they are all fake."

Xu Zhe: "Of course not. Can you write the truth in a diary?"

Song Xingye began to analyze seriously: "You didn't write a diary before, but now you suddenly want to write one. This change may make your parents very curious. Once your parents are curious, I think they will probably want to peek at your diary."

Xu Zhe also changed his tone and said, "Remember to lock it up after writing. Parents always want to read their children's diaries."

Tang Lingfei nodded, but then asked, "Who should I show my diary to after I finish writing it?"

Xu Zhe: "Only when you don't show it to anyone can you write honestly."

But Song Xingye proposed a different opinion: "Show it to me, so I can guide you on how to write better."

The two friends said different things, which made Tang Lingfei a little hesitant.

Song Xingye thought for a moment and then said, "If you want to show it to me or Xu Zhe, then show it to us. If you don't want to show it to us, forget it. You can choose for yourself which ones are allowed and which ones are not."

Tang Lingfei nodded: "Okay, that's it!"

Song Xingye smiled and said, "Then start writing from today. The final grades are out today, and your parents will be speaking at the parents' meeting. What a great diary material."

As the two girls were chatting and laughing, they suddenly realized that there seemed to be one person's footsteps missing.

When they turned around, they saw Xu Zhe parked in front of a China Unicom business hall.

He was listening carefully to the commercial with his eyes closed.

"The latest Pingguo phone has all kinds of apps that can help you budget your money and invest your money. There are apps that can help you learn a new chord, and some are for learning a new language. There are apps for bird lovers, even astronomy enthusiasts... Yes, there are over 80,000 apps that can do almost anything for you, all on the Pingguo phone!"

What the girls didn't know was that Xu Zhe had an electronic product in his mind just by listening to this advertisement. Of course, the Pingguo 4 that set off a craze in China had not yet been released. The advertisement was actually talking about the Pingguo 3GS, a product that was already quite impressive but still had many shortcomings.

Tang Lingfei and Song Xingye came up to him and asked in a chattering voice:

"What are you thinking about?"

"Are you thinking of buying a cell phone again?"

Xu Zhe really wanted to buy it because this Pingguo 3GS is not just a mobile phone, but also represents his path to start a business through mobile games. In Xu Zhe's opinion, the focus of mobile game startups in the early stage should still be on the Pingguo system. After all, it only needs to be adapted to one or two models, which makes development much simpler and has a very broad market.

I bought a Xiaolingtong six months ago, purely because this type of mobile phone had not yet entered the domestic market. Now that it has entered the domestic market, of course I have to buy it no matter what.

However, Xu Zhe opened his mouth and realized that it was not easy to explain these things to the two girls, so he simply said: "Nothing, let's go."

Although it was not easy to tell Tang Lingfei and Song Xingye, he felt that these things could be shared with Shen Lan.

She could definitely understand her own thoughts.

----

Tang Lingfei sat in her bedroom, biting the cap of her pen, staring at her diary.

[The final exam results came out today. I have made great progress. The teacher praised me and asked parents to share their experience. My mother was very happy and she wanted to share her experience.]

The girl only wrote this paragraph and didn't know how to write the rest.

The significant improvement in her final grades was of course a good thing that made her happy. But this kind of pure good thing made her feel that there was nothing to say. She couldn't just repeat "I'm so happy" a hundred times in her diary, right?

So what do you want to write most now?

Tang Lingfei struggled for a while, and finally wrote down the most pressing thing in her mind:

[I went to Xu Zhe's house to play PSP last night. I should have had a lot of fun. But I wasn't so happy while playing. After Xu Zhe came back and chatted with me, I felt that it seemed to be more fun than Monster Hunter. No, it can't be said to be fun, I just had a lot of fun chatting with him...]

As Tang Lingfei was writing, she suddenly felt that this first diary was not suitable to be shown to others, not even Xiao Ye.

Chapter 97 Green Apple Paradise

2023-09-06

Xu Guowei sat on the sofa, but his posture was not as relaxed as usual. He leaned forward, resting his elbows on his thighs and supporting his head with his hands.

He was thinking seriously.

Just now, my son, who has become smarter and more sensible since he entered junior high school, suddenly made a seemingly unreasonable request, which is to buy a new mobile phone.

And it’s the latest Pingguo smartphone, which costs more than 4,000 yuan!

"Do you really have to have that cell phone that costs four or five thousand?" Xu Guowei asked with a frown.

Xu Zhe said seriously, "I told you that I need some money because I want to use their system to develop games. If you can't lend me this money, I will withdraw some of the money from the stock market."

That's right, the son asked to borrow his money to buy a mobile phone and pay it back at the end of the year when all the stocks were sold.

Judging from the current situation, if he doesn't agree to lend the money, his son will have to sell the stocks in advance...

Xu Guowei sighed, "Didn't you say that the stock price would rise until the end of the year? If we withdraw the money now, won't we lose hundreds or thousands of dollars?"

Xu Zhe: "A few hundred or a few thousand is just small change."

Xu Guowei couldn't help but gasp: "A few thousand yuan is also a small amount of money? My God, when did you develop such an idea?"

"When I said I wanted to register a company, you should have understood that what I want to do is not a small thing. Mobile phones are not bought for fun, but as means of production. This is serious business. The game I plan to release cannot be too late. If I can't finish the game within this year, it may be too late."

Xu Zhe's expression was still serious, without any intention of joking.

My father sat there in silence for a long time.

Finally, he smiled bitterly and said, "If I don't agree to lend it to you, you'll have to take on outsourcing work online to earn money to buy it yourself, right?"

Xu Zhe said calmly: "It's possible, but that would still take too much time. Asking you to borrow it is the quickest option."

Xu Guowei asked again: "What about your original PHS?"

Xu Zhe: "Give it to Feifei. I need to get a new number, but that's easy. There are only a few contacts who have my number saved. I can just notify them one by one."

"Your idea is good, but you missed one very important thing." Xu Guowei took out his wallet and showed it to him. There was a stack of red bills in the wallet, but it was not thick, and there were only a few bills when he took it out and counted them.

Xu Zhe: "You don't have money?"

Xu Guowei glared at his son and said, "My salary for this month hasn't come down yet. What do you think?"

Xu Zhe: "Then there is no other way. Let's withdraw money from the stock market. We don't need to sell everything. Just withdraw 4,000 yuan will be enough. The remaining amount will be enough for Feifei's tutoring."

Xu Guowei: "By the way, you have collected a lot of tuition fees! How much money do you have now? One thousand? Two thousand?"

Xu Zhe shook his head: "More than a thousand, less than two thousand."

"You obviously have more money than me, your father, yet you have the nerve to ask me for a loan..." Xu Guowei stood up, shaking his head and sighing.

Seeing this, Xu Zhe asked, "Where are you going?"

Xu Guowei blew his beard and glared: "I'll sell you stocks!"
