631: Chapter 631: Chinese New Year and Another Escape Back to Rongcheng! The TV series premieres!

Chapter 631: New Year and Fleeing Back to Rongcheng! The TV Series Premieres!

In the dormitories of Xianglong Football Club in Loucheng, Xiang Province.

Zhang Yunzhong sat in front of the computer, pursing his lips and widening his eyes, seriously reading the three team-building plans modified by Su Yang...

Gradually, his lips pursed tighter and tighter, making the nasolabial folds on his face more prominent.

His eyes, which were originally dry and sore, began to moisten.

If he didn't understand the boss's painstaking efforts by now, he would have been a football coach for nothing.

The three plans modified by the boss all adopted the tactics he was most familiar with and used most often.

Even the players selected were all in line with his personnel habits.

The three sets of tactics seemed to be tailor-made for him!

And this workload was not something an ordinary person could endure!

"Sigh~"

He leaned back in his chair, staring at the computer screen, his vision becoming increasingly blurred.

The boss had a sharp tongue but a soft heart... He felt that if he couldn't lead the team to promote to the First Division, he would truly be unworthy of the boss's painstaking efforts!

On New Year's Eve, not only were the employees a bit low in spirit, but Su Yang was the same.

By the afternoon, employees began to ask for leave early to go home, and the management approved them one by one.

Su Yang wandered aimlessly to Yuanshi Private Equity and glanced at the employees there.

Just like the servers at Jiuxiang Catering, the New Year had nothing to do with these employees.

The domestic stock market doesn't open during the New Year, but the vast majority of what Yuanshi Private Equity's only private equity fund bought were us stocks.

If they wanted to go home for the New Year, they could only take shifts or head home during the interval weekends.

Inside the Yuanshi Private Equity office, the scattered employees looked quite energetic.

Many of the empty workstations weren't without employees; it was just that they were scheduled to work at night.

Su Yang gave these young employees a good word of encouragement, and they all smilingly expressed that it was just part of their job!

Most of these young employees didn't really like going home for the New Year; staying at the company with colleagues actually made them feel more at ease.

Besides, with triple pay, why not take the money!

If they wanted to go home for the New Year, weren't there still two days?

Many of them felt that two days were just right; staying at home for too long might actually make them unwelcome!

Strolling into Dong Zengjie's office, Dong Zengjie smilingly asked Su Yang again if he wanted to hold an annual meeting next year.

Su Yang didn't give a definite answer, only saying he would think about it and see!

He neither liked annual meetings nor was he keen on team building.

Dong Zengjie said vowedly, "Boss, an annual meeting can increase employee cohesion!"

"Then who will perform the show?"

"We can invite celebrities, or let the employees do it!" Dong Zengjie thought for a moment and said, "If all else fails, Boss can invite people from Spark Entertainment. They are professionals, and it will definitely be great to watch!"

Su Yang stared at Dong Zengjie and smiled, "How about Director Dong also goes up to perform a show at next year's annual meeting?"

"Uh..." Dong Zengjie didn't expect the boss to try and push him onto the stage, so he hurriedly refused, "No, no, no, I don't know how to perform!"

"You can rehearse!" Su Yang laughed, "You still have a whole year to prepare!"

"Boss, please no!"

"Don't be afraid. Even if the performance isn't good, I'll applaud for you!"

"..."

Seeing the boss leave, Dong Zengjie felt like crying but had no tears.

He just wanted to join the fun and watch the shows; he never thought he'd trap himself.

He could only hope the boss would forget about the annual meeting next year...

As soon as it was time to get off work, Su Yang, a proactive member of the 'off-work' club, led the way out of the office.

This time, his cousin followed closely in his footsteps.

Down in the parking lot, Su Yang first saw Wang Juan, who had been waiting for a long time.

After Wang Juan happily called out "Cousin," she got into He Zhiheng's car. The solitary Su Yang could only drive his U8 slowly behind his cousin's car.

Driving alone, Su Yang didn't feel lonely.

Sometimes it was quite nice to be alone quietly.

Of course, for the New Year, he still had to bring a woman back as a shield!

Su Yang had already agreed with Chen Li that they would take each other to their respective homes for a visit.

A bit of a cover-up to shut those relatives' mouths!

Back at home, Su Yang received a warm welcome from his mom.

His dad was the same as before, but perhaps because life had been carefree lately, both of them looked a bit younger and full of energy, showing a tendency to evolve into the high-spirited elderly people found in cities.

His mom also asked about his girlfriend, and Su Yang said he would bring her back in two days.

He sat on the familiar sofa, and lying down felt very comfortable.

The familiar indentation of the sofa fit him perfectly!

The sofa was many years old and a bit worn, but the quality was good, and his parents had always been reluctant to replace it!

His mom whispered, "Is it Tao Xue?"

"Chen Li!"

"You and Chen Li got back together?"

"Right, right, right!"

Su Yang nodded; saying it this way seemed more acceptable to his mom!

"Then what about Tao Xue?" His mom suddenly asked in confusion, "Did you and Tao Xue break up?"

At this moment, Su Yang also noticed his dad look up at him.

Su Yang took a deep breath: "If you guys like Tao Xue, I'll bring her back too!"

"..."

By midnight, Su Yang had received many blessings and sent out many as well, frantically sending out red envelopes in the company groups...

At midnight, after lighting the firecrackers, he watched the Spring Festival Gala for a bit and quickly fell asleep!

This New Year didn't have many twists and turns, except that his cousin Wei Yang's wife—his cousin-in-law—wanted to start a small business and asked Su Yang for his opinion.

Among the relatives on both sides of Su Yang's family, not a single one was good at business.

Even his aunt, whose main business was pig farming and growing cash crops, wasn't very proficient in markets and such; it all relied on hard work and luck!

Su Yang asked for her thoughts, and his cousin explained!

There was a convenience store below his cousin's residential complex that was being transferred. His cousin-in-law had no work on her hands and wanted to take over the convenience store.

His cousin-in-law didn't dream of great wealth; she just wanted to earn a little bit of money!

Su Yang gave his cousin-in-law a task: have her check the convenience store's turnover, then tally the occupancy rate of the complex, and see if the store had a tobacco license, the foot traffic, and so on!

He wasn't an expert on convenience stores, but he had Business Deduction.

But it wasn't right for him to flatly reject or agree with the other party's idea without any data support!

He could see that his cousin-in-law really wanted to give it a go!

Su Yang reminded her, "Cousin-in-law, generally speaking, if a convenience store is making money, people won't easily transfer it!"

"The owner of the convenience store said his son is buying a house in Rongcheng and they're moving there... Lately, I've seen that their business is quite good!"

"Hmm!" Su Yang nodded, "But you still need to be a bit cautious. The transfer fee is several tens of thousands, right?"

His cousin-in-law nodded: "Okay!"

Wei Yang smiled and said to his wife, "Listen to Su Yang. Su Yang knows how to make money better than we do!"

His cousin-in-law thought for a moment and nodded, "That's true!"

"Also!" Su Yang reminded, "Good business during the New Year doesn't mean business is good usually... If you really want to do business, I'll keep an eye out for you!"

His cousin-in-law looked at Su Yang with a bit of longing: "Really?"

"Yeah!"

Su Yang nodded seriously.

If he bought the Xinyue Supermarket chain, he might have to get into the supermarket business.

Doing supermarket business in the county town was still viable!

Working with him would surely be better than being scammed!

On the second day of the Lunar New Year, Su Yang went to bring Chen Li home.

Seeing the very sensible and well-behaved Chen Li, Su Yang's mom felt a bit conflicted!

She had already stopped thinking about Tao Xue.

She felt that her son seemed quite capable of making things happen, so he probably wouldn't lack a girlfriend.

She kind of wanted to just let go and stop meddling!

Just as Su Yang brought Chen Li home, Zhang Yunzhong bid farewell to his family and boarded a plane to Xiang Province.

He couldn't sit still at home, so he simply went to Xianglong to prepare for the team's player recruitment.

During the New Year period, Yuanshi Private Equity still announced the private equity fund's returns to clients on time.

This month, Yuanshi Private Equity had earned another 32% profit for its clients. Zhang Zhiyuan was so excited that he personally called Su Yang, saying that everyone should get together properly after the New Year.

He wanted to treat Su Yang to dinner, and he could pick any girls he wanted!

Before the New Year holiday was even over, Su Yang couldn't sit still anymore, so he simply used work as an excuse to flee back to Rongcheng with Chen Li.

Returning to Luhu Villa, Su Yang felt very at ease lying on the sofa.

Not long after, the nanny also brought Xiao Mi back.

These past few days, because the nanny also needed a holiday, she had taken Xiao Mi home to care for her.

As for the villa, Su Yang had hired someone else to clean it once every two days.

Xiao Mi was very happy to see Su Yang. She crawled out of the cat carrier and jumped onto him, rubbed her nose against his face, stepped on his chest a few times, and then curled up and lay down.

Su Yang lay on the sofa, and Xiao Mi lay on Su Yang...

Seeing the person and the cat so synchronized, Chen Li found it a bit funny.

"Boss, what do you want for dinner?"

"The New Year holiday isn't over yet. You should go back and rest. Chen Li and I will just order takeout!"

Su Yang reached back and pulled the cat into his arms; this fellow was getting a bit heavy and was making him feel uncomfortable!

"No need. There's nothing going on at home anyway, and I'm just idle!" The nanny said with a smile, "My relatives sent some sausages and shiitake mushrooms over. I thought they were delicious, so I brought some!"

"Hmm!" Su Yang nodded, "Sausages are good, but I want to eat some vegetables. I'm tired of eating meat every day!"

"Okay, then how about some boiled greens and radishes with some sausages?"

Su Yang looked at Chen Li, who was wrapped in a blanket next to him: "Sister Li, what do you think?"

Chen Li nodded: "That works!"

Her situation was similar to Su Yang's; during the few days of the New Year, she couldn't find many vegetable dishes on the dinner table, and she felt like she had gained some weight.

"Then it's settled!" Su Yang decided decisively, "It's simple to make. You can go back and visit if you have things to do!"

"Okay, Boss!"

Su Yang turned on the TV, switched to Matong Station, and put down the remote.

Chen Li asked in confusion, "Are you following a show lately?"

She knew Su Yang never followed shows and rarely even turned on the TV!

"The drama 'only you in the whole world' that our Spark Entertainment filmed is premiering today. I'm adding a bit to the viewership ratings."

"Is it good?"

"It should be quite exciting!"

This time, Spark Entertainment didn't buy viewership ratings, mainly because Su Yang had confidence in this drama.

After it was filmed, he actually hadn't seen the full version.

Since he was idle now, he might as well watch it for a bit!

After dinner, the nanny left. Su Yang and Chen Li squeezed onto the large sofa, playing with their phones under a quilt.

Chen Li's hands and feet were a bit restless; she liked to slip her hand into his clothes and press her feet against his...

Those icy little hands and feet made Su Yang feel a chilling thrill!

Just as the drama was about to start, he received a call from An Xinlei.
