Chapter 89 Young Master He's Private Affairs
Chapter 89 Young Master He's Private Affairs
"Sunrise? Daddy seems to really like sunrises?"
Shuhua is also looking forward to the sunrise. The gift she gave Daddy last time was based on various photos.
Now that she can see it with her own eyes, that's not bad.
Huo Linzhou: "Not really, I just think it's nice."
Shu Hua looked puzzled and asked Huo Linzhou to explain a little more, "The first time I saw the sunrise was by accident. I was young then and just thought it was beautiful."
Later, when I got older and thought about it more, I realized that being able to see the sunrise was meaningful in itself.
First and foremost, it requires your own effort to climb to a high place and get up very early.
Furthermore, it also requires perfect timing and good luck.
Shu Hua listened to Huo Linzhou's words and began to think.
Indeed, although there is sunrise and sunset every day, the number of times a person can witness them in their lifetime is probably not that many.
The sheer amount of effort required is enough to deter many people.
Even though everyone knows that sunrises are beautiful, many people still can't achieve that.
Or perhaps there are no conditions.
If you're unlucky, you might finally get up early to go hiking, only to find it's raining.
That would be even more damaging.
Huo Linzhou: "I remembered the painting you gave me last time. Now you need to start another important project."
I thought I could show you around and give you some inspiration and food for thought.
Shu Hua was still in a philosophical moment when he did have some inspiration.
But listening to Huo Linzhou's highly professional choice of words, it's clear that this is an important project.
I had a feeling that she was about to pick up a pen and sign a document any moment.
Either you need to start making a PowerPoint presentation.
In an instant, all the emotional moments vanished.
Shu Hua smiled somewhat awkwardly, "Yes, thank you, Daddy."
Fearing that her hard-won emotional insights would be ruined by her workaholic daddy, Shuhua chose to talk to other people.
With a casual glance, he saw He Peiji and immediately thought of the private matter He had mentioned earlier.
Yeah, I really wasn't curious during the previous live stream.
But now, she feels she can be curious, very curious.
Shu Hua trotted up to He Peiji and asked, "Young Master He, what personal matter did you ask for leave during the live stream?"
He Peiji heard Shu Hua's words, but only looked into the distance, even though that direction was pitch black. He sneered, "Heh, now you're curious? I'd forgotten all about it."
Oh dear, as people get older, their memory just doesn't go as well.
Shu Hua looked at He Peiji, who had suddenly started acting, with a puzzled expression. "What's wrong with you? We came up by cable car, you shouldn't be exhausted, right?"
Duan Jiyu also came over at this time, "Hua Zai, Young Master He is getting old, he should be asleep by now."
Xie Xun: "There are tents. Go to sleep if you're sleepy."
Shu Hua was startled by the sound above her head, only to realize that Xie Xun had arrived at some point and was standing right behind her.
Good heavens, a deep, reverberating voice came from above, and it was so late at night, it really gave me a creepy feeling.
Shu Hua quickly took two steps forward before looking at Xie Xun with dissatisfaction, "Young Master Xun, please don't talk on people's heads next time, it's a bit scary."
Duan Jiyu burst out laughing when he saw Shu Hua's expression.
He Peiji: "..." Is he really that easy to ignore?
Who will make peanuts for him?
Next time, let's bring his mentally challenged younger brother along too, at least someone will take care of him.
He Peiji was feeling a bit tired and stopped acting. "I'm going to set a limit for my brother."
Shu Hua had come here to distract herself, but when she heard He Peiji mention melons, she looked over again, her eyes sparkling.
This offered some comfort to He Peiji.
Shu Hua: "Your brother? What did he buy randomly?"
No, with your family's wealth, you must have made reckless investments.
What project is it? Tell me so I can avoid any problems.
Duan Jiyu: "Huh? Isn't your brother just good at playing games?"
When did you learn how to invest?
It's normal for young people to fail, you don't need to be so harsh.
"Your family isn't short of money, so don't be a stingy older brother."
Xie Xun didn't speak, but nodded enthusiastically, indicating his agreement.
He Peiji couldn't hold back any longer. He rolled his eyes and looked at Duan Jiyu. "When did I ever give you the impression of being stingy? You tell me then."
Seeing that he had already made the other person roll their eyes, Duan Jiyu quickly waved his hand, "Just kidding."
Such a high mountain, if someone were driven to desperation and jumped off, it would be difficult to find them.
Shu Hua waved her hand anxiously to make her presence known, "Alright, everyone stop using your supernatural powers."
"Young Master He, please tell us the whole story first, then we can start acting."
Xie Xun nodded silently again.
He Peiji looked like he was a magnanimous man. "My brother is Xinghai, the older brother of the anchor Tao you were PK'ing with today. I remember you know about this."
Originally, I didn't care what he did, like watching live streams.
I really don't care about the small amount of money spent on tips.
But judging from the appearance of that streamer today, he seemed too 'foolishly kind' and lacked the ability to discern right from wrong.
Although my brother won't be needed for the family business in the future, he still needs to have his own career.
If he watches too many streamers like that, I'm worried that he'll become even dumber since he's not smart to begin with.
They set a limit for him.
Since he can no longer make large donations, the young man's pride will definitely make him watch less.
If you really like this streamer that much, you can go and make money from it yourself.
After listening to He Peiji's words, Duan Jiyu became more serious this time. "You did the right thing this time."
The more you interact with such simple people, the more your thinking will change.
Once you actually manage the company, you'll be easily fooled.
Xie Xun: "He didn't cause trouble?"
Xie Xun and He Fuye had played together a few times, but this kid wasn't exactly obedient.
Especially since things are still fine in reality, but based on considerations of future risks, they will definitely resist.
He Peiji sneered, "He made his own choice."
By refusing to join the company, she had already handed over control of her finances.
If he wants it back now, he can do it anytime; he just needs to go to work.
Shu Hua was still thinking that the development of this matter was becoming more and more different from the book.
One of the female lead's harem members, a veteran older brother, is he about to run away?
Even if she doesn't run away, without financial resources, she probably won't be able to secure a place in the harem.
Then they heard He Peiji say something that displeased all the cattle and horses.
Is going to work a good thing?
They say going to work is fine, but if there are other options, who would want to go to work?
Look, Xinghai didn't choose to leave work.
He would rather his elder brother's status be lowered.
However, Shu Hua suddenly thought of the female lead's personality and her habit of advising her older brother not to spend money whenever they had a PK battle.
Perhaps Xinghai could take a differentiated approach.
See, only I listened to Tao Tao and really didn't spend any money.
Maybe that will make Tao Tao like it even more.
As for PK, there are other people around.
We can't possibly lose.
Shu Hua felt like she had come up with a great idea, and excitedly shared it with He Peiji, "Maybe your brother thought the same thing, which is why he hasn't made a fuss."
He Peiji: "..." Has he been speechless far too many times today?
He Peiji couldn't help but sigh, "His brain can't think of this."
That silly boy only knows how to rush around; he would never think of such a strategic retreat.
If he could think of that, he wouldn't restrict his spending, and he wouldn't be led astray by that naive streamer.
Shu Hua opened her mouth, but ultimately held back from saying anything.
What a loving older brother! He trusts his younger brother so much.
In a sense, it's all true.
After finishing discussing personal matters, Shu Hua felt that the classroom atmosphere that Huo Linzhou had just influenced her with had also disappeared.
I checked the time, and it was only 10 p.m.
At this time of day, her nightlife is just beginning.
But I have to get up early tomorrow to watch the sunrise.
It seems like we have to get up at 4 a.m. and then walk a bit to the best viewpoint.
It's summer now, so there are especially many people watching the sunrise.
We need to get there early to reserve a spot.
Six hours of sleep seems alright, doesn't it?
However, she doesn't usually fall asleep at this time.
How about we just stay up all night?
Anyway, after watching the sunrise, she can go back and sleep all day.
Hmm... that's how Shu Hua started to struggle with her decision.
Even after reaching the mountaintop, Huo Linzhou was still dealing with work-related matters.
He's looking at some documents right now, and he looks very serious.
Judging from the appearance, the person who submitted this document is probably going to get criticized by President Huo. I wish him good luck.
Whether influenced by Huo Linzhou or thinking of his troublesome younger brother, He Peiji also started dealing with work.
Suddenly, Shu Hua, Xie Xun, and Duan Jiyu looked like three students watching their parents busy with work.
Shu Hua looked at Xie Xun curiously: "Young Master Xun, don't you have to work?"
Xie Xun: "I used to stay up all night practicing, so now I can't do any work at night."
Shu Hua quietly gave a thumbs up. She couldn't refute this reason; it was so refreshing.
She then looked at Duan Jiyu. Duan Jiyu, receiving the questioning look, answered without Shu Hua even having to speak, "He Fuye and I are together. We are currently being supported by someone, and the work we do is easy. At least we don't have to work late at night."
"Of course, I'm much smarter than that kid Tsurugi."
Shu Hua listened to Duan Jiyu's narcissistic words, withdrew her gaze without hesitation, and then expressed her inner turmoil.
The brief silence was probably because everyone was thinking about this.
Xie Xun: "How about we play games? Time flies if we play games all night."
Shu Hua thought about it and thought it was a good idea, but then asked, "What game should we play?"
Duan Jiyu immediately thought of Shu Hua's heroic figure when she played games on her live stream before, and laughed out loud, "Putting everything else aside, Xie Xun will probably be so angry that he can't sleep tonight because he played games with you."
"I'll have to stay up all night."
Shu Hua snorted, "I was just a bit rusty last time, and we still won!"
Besides, Young Master Xun is a professional; he's not so easily angered.
Duan Jiyu was still laughing, "Alright, then let's play LoL and you can get revenge."
Shu Hua hesitated for a moment, but seeing Duan Jiyu's teasing look, she became righteous again, "Fine, let's play then, I'll show you my prowess."
And so, the three of them began their joyful adventure in the canyon.
Oh no, it's happiness for two people, and pain for one.
With Duan Jiyu's terrible skills, he's really not qualified to talk about Shu Hua.
But with Xie Xun, a professional expert, by their side, even with two lackeys dragging them down, they still marched on with flying colors and were invincible.
Then, just as Xie Xun said, time always flies when you're playing games.
As Duan Jiyu said, Xie Xun was so angry that he couldn't sleep.
As for who this anger is directed at, well... I won't say.
It should be two people together.
At midnight, Huo Linzhou and He Peiji had finished their work.
Huo Linzhou asked a few people and learned that they wanted to stay up all night. Without saying much, he returned to his tent and rested.
He Peiji originally wanted to join the game team, but seeing Xie Xun's pained expression, he chose to go back to rest.
He had no desire to share the pain.
He Peiji believed that his gaming skills were far superior to Shu Hua's; they were not even in the same league.
It must be the one who gets dragged down.
Let the professional athletes handle this kind of hardship.
An amateur like him wouldn't eat it.
*
4:20 AM.
The three gamers, except for Xie Xun, were all somewhat exhausted.
But as the time drew near, Shu Hua and Duan Jiyu still mustered their spirits.
The three of them sat together very quietly.
As for why it was so quiet, Xie Xun wasn't much of a talker to begin with.
During the past few hours of gaming, Shu Hua and Duan Jiyu had been calling each other idiots until their throats hurt.
There's no longer that hard and fast rule to speak for.
A short while later, the two who had chosen to sleep finished packing up and came out of the tent.
Shu Hua looked at Huo Linzhou, who had only slept for four hours and was already radiant, and could only sigh, "What a chosen workaholic!"
Upon arriving at the viewpoint, Shu Hua exclaimed once again, "Capitalists, ah, they're just so great!"
Some people arrived early to reserve a spot and even hired a professional photographer to take pictures.
Huo Linzhou said that one should wholeheartedly experience the beauty and inspiration of the present moment.
However, when it comes to publishing a collection of paintings, it is still necessary to review the photos and videos.
Shu Hua: Daddy really thinks of everything.
The mountain breeze at dawn carried a biting chill, which dispelled some of the fatigue that Shu Hua had felt from staying up all night.
She took a deep breath; the crisp air was filled with the unique cool fragrance of pine needles, soil, and morning dew.
I felt incredibly comfortable; could this be the saying, "The early bird catches the worm"?
They arrived at 4:50.
At this moment, the deep blue sky, like velvet soaked in ink, had not yet completely faded.
But near the horizon, a very faint, almost transparent layer of fish-belly white had quietly spread out.
The mountain mist did not completely dissipate, but instead transformed into strands of milky white ribbons, lazily entwining themselves among the dark green mountains.
It flows and rises slowly in the breeze, like the gentle breath of the earth.
Suddenly, the edge of the fish-belly white was ignited!
First, there was an extremely fine line, like molten gold foil. Then, the gold line rapidly expanded and spread, spreading out in a beautiful orange-red and a fiery golden-red hue.
Just as the rosy glow was at its peak, almost blinding, a tiny, fiery dot suddenly leaped out at the boundary between the burning sea of clouds and the silhouette of the mountains!
The Buddha is a huge, molten, red-gold pearl, held aloft by an invisible giant hand, steadily climbing upwards.
The sun had fully risen above the horizon and was hovering in the sky, no longer dazzling, but radiating a warm, gentle, and vibrant light.
It dispelled all the chill and darkness, enveloping the entire Yunqi Mountain in a grand, warm, and hopeful clear light.
The sky had turned a pure, clear blue, and the stars that remained from last night had vanished without a trace.
The world below the mountain seemed to be awakened by this light, with the faint chirping of birds announcing the start of a new day.
Shu Hua gasped almost instinctively, completely unaware of her fatigue, her eyes busy recording the moment.
The ever-changing, unrepeatable layers of color, the rhythm of light and shadow flowing among the mountains, and the vibrant life that all things exude under the rising sun.
Nature truly is the greatest artist.
