Rebirth: Growing Up Together

One becomes increasingly brilliant.

The speed of light falls.

Seeing that Qingzhou Weibo has reached the top of the domestic social network, Wanshan has fallen into a black hole in the capital chain and cannot escape.

Qiao Yiming gritted his teeth and wanted to empty out the last part of Qingzhou's funds that he expected.

"Qingzhou will not survive June this year."

January.

Among the several listed companies in Hong Kong, the most brilliant one is a company called Feixing Innovation Technology, which soared 112% at the opening, reached a maximum increase of 218%, and still soared 166% at the closing.

Among the several listed companies in Shanghai, one of the most popular new stocks is a logistics and transportation company called Lida Logistics. On the first day of listing, its intraday price soared by nearly 86% and closed up 60.45%.

This was nothing at first, but through careful observation, they were surprised to find that the largest shareholders behind these two companies were both named Xiami Venture Capital, a previously unknown VC firm.

As soon as this incident came out, it immediately shocked the entire venture capital industry. People in the circle began to speculate about the identity of Xiami Venture Capital, which had been so low-key before.

After various investigations, everyone finally discovered that at the listing ceremonies of these two companies, a boy showed up, and this man was very famous——

Xu Cheng.

And Xu Cheng quickly admitted the outside speculation.

This incident shocked the entire capital circle.

You must know that Lida Logistics is now ranked among the top three in the country in the logistics and transportation industry.

As for Feixing, there is nothing wrong with saying it is number one in the domestic drone industry.

The investor who has such a vision is that boy again!

This also became the final move to defeat Wanshan.

Before that, everyone had been wondering where Xu Cheng got such courage.

Now the truth has come to light.

And there is no need to continue this farce. Wanshan is destined to be defeated at the hands of Qingzhou.

Just as investors were cutting losses and withdrawing funds, Qiao Yiming was suddenly investigated by the China Securities Regulatory Commission and soon arrested on charges of insider trading.

Soon after, Wanshan was acquired by Qingzhou, and the nearly two-year struggle between the two companies finally came to an end.

2014 years.

The eve of the Spring Festival.

A prison in Yanjing.

"3731, someone comes to see you."

The shaved Qiao Yiming walked into the visiting room in shackles and looked at the face outside the window with some surprise.

"Why are you here?" He smiled.

Xia Yue also smiled and looked him up and down.

"You've lost a lot of weight, just like when you were in junior high school."

Qiao Yiming sat uneasily on his seat, scratched his head, and was too embarrassed to speak.

"How are you doing?"

"Fortunately, I have a boyfriend, and I am going to take the postgraduate entrance examination with him recently."

"Yes, really." Qiao Yiming lowered his head again and scratched his scalp with his fingers. "It's fine, it's fine."

The two were silent for a long time, and Xia Yue suddenly said.

"Xu Cheng is here too."

"He's here too?"

"He's outside and didn't come in."

"This guy." Qiao Yiming forced a smile, "We haven't seen each other for many years."

"He said he would let you reform inside. He doesn't hate you."

"We're all brothers." Qiao Yiming wiped the corners of his eyes, and the back of his hand became noticeably moist where he had wiped. "I don't hate him either."

Time passed quickly. At the reminder of the prison guard, Qiao Yiming stood up and said something to Xia Yue on the other side of the window before leaving.

"Can you help me ask him, if I had gone to the Magic City, would things have been different later?"

Xia Yue also stood up.

"Xu Cheng said that if you stay, he will never think of anything to suppress you."

Qiao Yiming froze on the spot as if struck by lightning, then his eyes turned red and he lowered his head deeply.

"It is my fault."

……

Sea of ​​Tranquility.

Years later, there was a heavy snowfall in the small town, and the whole city changed its scene.

"My hands are so cold, my hands are so cold."

Lin Wanzhou breathed out a layer of white mist at her little hands that were red from the cold, "Xu Cheng, where are you taking me?"

"You'll know when we get there. Are your hands cold?"

"cold."

"Then why don't you quickly put it in my hand?"

"whee."

The girl let her boy hold her hand, and the two of them boarded the bus in front of the stop sign at the gate of the community.

It seems that because of the cold weather, no one goes out, and there are still many seats left in the bus.

The two of them sat down in a seat near the back.

The girl looked at the passing light and shadow outside the window, her butterfly-wing eyelashes twitching slightly.

"Xu Cheng, do you feel the same as when we were in high school?"

"Different."

"Why is it different?"

"At that time, I didn't dare to hold your hand openly."

"nonsense!"

Lin Wanchu was a little angry, "At that time, you have to play with my hands every day!"

"Then let me put it another way."

Xu Cheng put his hand on Lin Wanzhu's thigh again, "I didn't dare to touch you at that time."

"I'll give you three seconds to take it yourself, otherwise..."

"Otherwise what?"

"Otherwise you won't be able to take it away."

The girl's graceful thighs were pressed together, clamping Xu Cheng's hand so hard that it was impossible to pull it out.

After a few stops, Xu Cheng pulled Lin Wanzhou out of the car when he heard the announcement of "Galaxy Plaza".

This is a commercial street. Even though the snow on the ground makes walking inevitably slippery, it still can't stop people's enthusiasm and excitement.

The young man took Lin Wanzhou forward a few steps, and the two of them left four lines of shallow footprints.

"Do you want some coffee?" Xu Cheng turned his head and looked at Lin Wanzhou.

"Now?"

Lin Wanzhou looked at him strangely, "No, it's too cold. I don't want to drink."

"…Then do you want to read a book?"

A somewhat helpless Xu Cheng asked again, as if he was afraid of being rejected by the girl, and hurriedly added, "It's warm inside with air conditioning."

"Ok."

Lin Wanchu saw through what he had in mind and agreed without revealing it.

Xu Cheng took her to the corner of the street, to the entrance of a coffee shop with a simple yet fashionable decoration style.

Through the floor-to-ceiling glass display window, Lin Wanzhu could see that there were many people sitting in the store, all sitting on their seats, drinking coffee and chatting leisurely.

"When did Jinghai open such a store?"

"you guess."

Xu Cheng pulled her to the entrance of the store. When she saw the strange store name "This is not a porridge shop" on the sign, Lin Wanchu vaguely guessed something, and then looked at Xu Cheng with a look of disbelief.

"This is……"

"Let's take a look first."

The boy pulled her in, and the temperature of the air conditioner instantly warmed her body.

When the cat in the store sees the visitor, he lazily says hello, then licks his white fur and then takes a nap.

When the waitress saw Xu Cheng, she greeted him respectfully.

Xu Cheng waved his hand to indicate that it was okay, and then took Lin Wanzhou to the second floor on the escalator.

It's quiet here. There are many rows of wooden bookshelves with densely packed books on them. There is a big staircase next to it. Many people sit on the steps holding books and reading.

"A girl once told me that she was actually a loser and her dream was to open a milk tea shop." Xu Cheng held her hand and whispered to her, "I modified it a little bit. After all, I promised her that I would open a shop for her here. The first floor is a coffee shop, the second floor is a bookstore, and the third floor..."

"What's on the third floor?"

Lin Wanzhu was so moved that his voice choked up.

He really remembered her dream and made it come true for her.

Even if it was just a casual mention from her when she was young, he still remembered it so clearly.

Under the leadership of Xu Cheng, we went from a relatively hidden staircase to the third floor of the building.

The space here is not very large. It is surrounded by one-way floor-to-ceiling glass. The room is equipped with sofas, TVs and carpets, making it look like it can be lived in. There are some flowers and plants placed by the window, and there is also a hanging chair.

"On rainy days, you can lie in the room and read a book, then take a nap. You can do all of this here." Xu Cheng quietly told the girl about the little dreams she had. At this moment, he was like a dream weaver, weaving them all for her.

"By the way, look here."

Xu Cheng pointed to a strange mark on the wall. It was a coordinate axis with a function line y=kx+b (k＞0) drawn on it.

If Lin Wanzhu looked carefully, he could see that the ordinate of the coordinate axis was the arrogance value, and the abscissa was the relationship intimacy.

That was the intimacy function curve drawn by Xu Cheng in order to define the relationship between the two.

"Why is it different from before?" Lin Wanchu clearly remembered that the original image was a quadratic equation curve with the opening facing downwards.

"I think I was careless before. Now, the closer I am to you, the more I want to be arrogant. The degree of arrogance is infinite."

"Rogue, I won't touch you even once."

The girl said words against her will with eyes full of happiness.

"Oh, yes, there is also this book."

Xu Cheng took out a book "Sherlock Holmes" from the bookshelf nearby, "Do you remember Lin Wanzhu? When I was a child, you took this book from home and showed it to me. Then you thought I could reason, so you always asked me to give it to you. You reason about things that are thrown away.”

"That was because I was too naive at that time. Who knew that you, a liar, have been a liar since you were a child? How could you reason?"

Speaking of the past, Lin Wanzhou complained sheepishly.

"Hey? Don't talk nonsense. I can indeed reason, and I can now."

"Ok?"

Lin Wanzhou looked at him strangely.

"I can really reason." As if to prove it, Xu Cheng said, "If you don't believe me, I'll go out now, and then you think of something in your mind, and I'll come in and do it."

"Okay."
