Chapter 943

~7 min read 1,347 words

In Deng Lanxia's eyes, this woman Song Zihui was mentally ill; as a twenty-two-year-old adult, she naturally wouldn't bother with an idiot like Song Zihui.

"Is it that Dicos next to our school?" Deng Lanxia leaned over the edge of the bed to look down.

"Yes!" Zhou Anqin nodded: "My friend said their manager is very nice. I'll go find her tomorrow and ask her to put in a good word; maybe it will work."

"I hope so!"

Deng Lanxia had been to McDonald's, but hadn't succeeded. She had then gone to Dicos, but seeing that Dicos's decor was even more upscale than McDonald's and the business was better, she felt timid first, thinking she wouldn't be hired at all, so she left without even asking.

"Give it a try!" Zhou Anqin said with a smile: "Go ask, you won't lose a piece of flesh."

"That's true!" Deng Lanxia started to laugh: "Thank you, Xiao Qin!"

"What's there to thank!" Zhou Anqin leaned against the headboard, took out her Walkman, and put an earphone into her ear: "We are going to live together for four years, we'll be family from now on, we have to help each other."

"Right, right, right!" Kang Na laughed: "From now on we are family, we have to help each other, but certain people are excluded. If she has any accidents, I'll even buy a string of firecrackers to set off."

"That works!" Gao Xue kicked the bed board above with her long legs: "If you don't have enough money, I can support a little."

Song Zihui snorted coldly, turned over on the bed, and covered her head with the quilt.

Huang Yu rolled her eyes at Song Zihui: "Sister Xue, do you know Anqiu Hutong?"

Gao Xue was stunned for a moment, shook her head and said: "I don't know!"

Huang Yu said excitedly: "I went to Anqiu Hutong today, and there is a five-courtyard compound being renovated. I heard from nearby residents that the compound was bought by Zhou Andong. And the hutong took the name 'Anqiu' from one character in the names of Zhou Andong and his girlfriend."

Hearing Huang Yu's words, the expression on Zhou Anqin's face became very interesting, and then she pursed her lips and smiled.

"Zhou Andong!" Gao Xue suddenly became very excited, "My idol, where is that residence located? I want to go see it tomorrow."

Huang Yu said: "Let's go together tomorrow, I haven't finished looking around there yet."

Gao Yujing glanced at Zhou Anqin, a hint of a smile appearing on her round face.

And Song Zihui's head also poked out from the quilt, glancing at Zhou Anqin, her gaze somewhat unclear and very complicated.

"Hey!" Gao Xue suddenly said: "Zhou Anqin, Zhou Andong, Xiao Qin, your names only differ by one character, you wouldn't happen to be siblings, would you?"

Zhou Anqin nodded with a straight face: "Zhou Andong is my brother."

The dormitory suddenly went quiet, and then Huang Yu was heard laughing out loud: "If you weren't so serious, I would have believed you."

Gao Xue lay sprawled on the bed, wailing: "Oh my, if Xiao Qin were really Zhou Andong's sister, how great that would be; I would have a chance to get close to my idol."

Wen Yingluo, who had been reading, put down the book in her hand, her eyes shining like stars as she said: "Actually, I also really like Zhou Andong, he is truly very talented."

The expression on Zhou Anqin's face became bright, but no one noticed that little look of pride.

The night grew deeper, and the girls chattered, becoming more energetic as they talked, discussing past events, gossiping about reality, and imagining future aspirations.

………………

Because they were worried about Su Su, Zhou Andong and Jian Qiu got up early. After a simple wash, they left the hotel, didn't even call Wu Chao, and took a taxi to the No. 6 Courtyard.

"Why did you come so early?" Gu Minglan and Zhao Ping had also just gotten up.

"How is the child? Did she fuss last night?" Jian Qiu asked hurriedly.

Gu Minglan said with a smile: "She whimpered a few times when she was sleeping, I made her some milk, and she fell asleep after drinking it. She wet the bed in the middle of the night, I changed the mattress for her, and she hasn't woken up yet."

"Phew!" Jian Qiu exhaled: "I didn't sleep well last night, I was afraid she wouldn't be dry."

Zhao Ping was brushing her teeth with a mug, her mouth full of foam: "If she fusses too much, she'll definitely be sent back to you."

"Dongzi!" Gu Minglan suddenly called out.

Zhou Andong puffed out his chest: "Mom, go ahead!"

Gu Minglan said: "I want to take Su Su back to Fengjing for a few days, and when your dad has time, we will come back together."

Zhou Andong didn't even think: "As long as Qiuqiu agrees, I have no opinion."

"Fine!" Jian Qiu agreed, "When I go back in a while, I'll pack up the child's clothes and clean diapers and bring them over."

At this time, she didn't dare to make the Old Buddha angry. Since there was no problem with the child being with the Old Buddha, then let her go.

After eating breakfast at the No. 6 Courtyard, the old lady's attitude toward Zhou Andong softened a lot, and she also said a few words of concern; it was likely the old man had said something.

After breakfast, Zhou Andong and Jian Qiu returned to the hospital. As soon as they entered the ward, Lao Si ran out.

"Where is Su Su?"

Jian Qiu rubbed Lao Si's head: "Su Su is with Grandma, she won't be back for a few days."

"Ah?" Lao Si hung her head and walked back, then flopped onto the sofa, rolled over, and lay on it, "I miss her."

Jian Qiu hurriedly went over to comfort her: "She's only staying for a few days, she'll be back soon."

"Is it because no one is playing with you?" Zhou Andong hit the nail on the head, "You're starting school in two days, and you're still thinking about playing."

As soon as school was mentioned, Lao Si sat up: "When I go to school, there will be many little friends to play with me."

"Only thinking about playing!" Zhou Andong tapped Lao Si on the head.

"Annoying!" Lao Si glared at Zhou Andong indignantly: "I've been tapped stupid by you, what if I don't know how to count when I go to school?"

"Exactly!" Jian Qiu hit Zhou Andong: "Why are you so annoying."

Zhou Andong gave a chuckle, and just as he was about to speak, the phone rang suddenly.

"Probably Lao Wu's."

Picking up the phone, unexpectedly, Gu Qing's voice came through the receiver.

"Chairman, news came from Qi City, they gave us fifty more mu of land for free, with the requirement that the construction area of the shopping center cannot be smaller than the one in Jiangzhou."

"That's really..." Zhou Andong shook his head helplessly: "Since they have requirements and have approved the land for us, then let's build it bigger."

"That's what I thought too." Gu Qing said: "I am very optimistic about the future development of Qi City."

Zhou Andong said: "Teacher An has already sent designers over. I estimate that the design drawings won't be out until after the New Year. So, just get the demolition work done before the New Year."

"Understood!" Gu Qing chatted with Zhou Andong for a couple more sentences, then hung up the phone.

As if they had discussed it, just as Gu Qing hung up, Man Hongshan's call came in.

"Chairman, the leadership found me yesterday, they want to let Xurishang go public."

This was already within Zhou Andong's expectations: "Okay, I will call President Wu immediately to split Xurishang within the group and restructure the equity. Then we will acquire an affiliated enterprise in Xiangjiang and go public through a backdoor listing."
