"Besides the incident with Chang Hao, there's something else you would never guess."
"The major shareholder behind Xianlin Express is actually Zhou Yuwen!" You Changjin exclaimed as if he had discovered a huge secret, sharing it with Jiang Xinyi.
Jiang Xinyi had already ordered the food earlier, and once everyone arrived, the dishes were served. It wasn't much, just two steaks and a decent bottle of red wine.
The reason she chose to dine here was mainly because it had been a long time since she last ate Western food. Moreover, having been around You Changjin for so long and always going dutch, Jiang Xinyi acknowledged You Changjin's contributions and felt it only natural to treat him to a meal.
Jiang Xinyi enjoyed the side dishes that came with the steak, those little carrots, broccoli, and sliced mushrooms.
They were all delicious.
Jiang Xinyi listened to You Changjin chattering away and said, "I know, I'm the accountant for Xianlin Express, how could I not know."
"Oh right, I almost forgot, this Zhou Yuwen, even his own mentor was kept in the dark, I only found out through the school!" You Changjin said gloomily.
After Singles' Day, Xu Huai's reputation soared higher than ever, influential not only in Xianlin University Town but also gradually spreading to Jiangning and Pukou, vaguely resembling a large student organization. Members spoke highly of it, noting that unlike before when part-time jobs were insecure, working under Xu Huai was better paid and could even accommodate early payouts under special circumstances.
Moreover, before Singles' Day, Zhou Yuwen had contracts with only ten university courier stations. However, following Singles' Day, Liu Shuo somehow convinced six more universities to voluntarily transfer their courier stations to Zhou Yuwen.
Thus, nearly the entire Xianlin University Town was under the control of Zhou Yuwen's Xianlin Express, and everywhere you went, you could see students in blue vests busily coming and going.
Additionally, several vans bearing the Xu Huai logo shuttled through the university town.
Now, some courier and labor companies outside could not intervene in the labor market of Xianlin University Town, and after Singles' Day, large companies, rather than cooperating with external labor companies, preferred to work directly with Zhou Yuwen. For these companies, simply paying money and letting Zhou Yuwen's team handle the rest made things easier and cheaper.
The school's leadership took notice and thus approached You Changjin, asking him to ensure good cooperation with Zhou Yuwen and to see if the student needed anything.
If he needed anything, he could just ask the school.
"Also, I heard that this kid is planning to move his company out; what's that about?"
You Changjin was caught off guard, and the school leaders were dissatisfied. They said, "Go talk to him, see if he can avoid moving out. Isn't the Entrepreneurship Park about to be completed?"
"We'd give him a few rooms over here to use as offices."
You Changjin shared all this with Jiang Xinyi, and he seemed quite happy about it. After all, Zhou Yuwen was his student, and You Changjin felt a sense of shared honor and disgrace.
The most important thing was, You Changjin said, "This Zhou Yuwen is ungrateful. I'm going to have to talk to him when I see him next; he's my student, and with you working at his company, won't you be able to stride around confidently?"
People are strange; as long as the thought of breaking up hadn't occurred, You Changjin had always been , and Jiang Xinyi saw nothing wrong with it.
But once the thought of breaking up came to her mind.
Whatever You Changjin said seemed a bit odd.
In just such a short conversation, Jiang Xinyi suddenly realized that her mother was right.
The two of them really were not suitable for each other.
So, Jiang Xinyi no longer hesitated.
She took out an envelope from her bag and handed it to You Changjin.
You Changjin was quite curious as he opened it up to look.
Jiang Xinyi told You Changjin that there were four thousand yuan in it. ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ novel•fire.net
"Four thousand yuan?" You Changjin was taken aback, then said, "Is this the salary Zhou Yuwen gave you?"
"This kid, not bad, I only told him to look after you, but he took really good care of you," You Changjin said as he opened the envelope, smiling as he saw the thick bundle of hundred yuan bills.
However, Jiang Xinyi said, "This is the total amount you've spent on me throughout our time together."
You Changjin was stunned, his smile immediately disappeared.
But he saw Jiang Xinyi say seriously, "Let's break up."
You Changjin's mind went blank at that moment.
