Chapter 104: Fishing Alone for Eternity
Throwing down his phone, Wu Xianyu hurriedly got up and went to the kitchen. Based on the existing ingredients, he made a few plates of light vegetables and fried a plate of Kung Pao Chicken according to Lin Miaomiao's preferences.
By the time Wu Xianyu brought the food to the table, it was already past one in the afternoon. Taking off his apron, Wu Xianyu called Lin Miaomiao to come for dinner.
After waiting for a while, Wu Xianyu still didn't see Lin Miaomiao. He walked to the living room and saw Lin Miaomiao curled up, absorbed in browsing her phone.
Wu Xianyu walked over and pinched Lin Miaomiao's little face
"Stop looking and eat first. Didn't you say you were hungry?"
"Here it comes, what kind of software is this? It's quite interesting."
Lin Miaomiao followed Wu Xianyu to the restaurant and talked about Douyin while eating.
"It's a software that has just been released. It's a software that uses fragmented time for entertainment. I'm very optimistic about it. I just asked Haozi to try to upload a video to it. I don't ask for too much. I just want to attract some old customers of Jiang's Kitchen and take care of their business."
Lin Miaomiao ate much slower this time, and ate vegetables more frequently. After listening to Wu Xianyu's plan, she asked a question out of curiosity.
“How does this software make money?”
Wu Xianyu stopped picking up the food. He actually didn't understand all this. He had only heard about traffic and the more traffic, the more money one could make, but he didn't know how to convert it.
After thinking about it, Wu Xianyu shook his head.
"I'm not sure, but what I want is to get Haozi to shift the attention online to their offline store or their online store."
"I didn't expect you to have such a business mind."
Lin Miaomiao was eating and looking at Wu Xianyu. Wu Xianyu shook his head, looking somewhat helpless. How could he be considered as having a business mind? These were just old-fashioned practices. This was what he did when he was a salesperson in his previous life, using properties to attract customers and then closing deals after offline communication.
If you really want to make money from Douyin, you still have to wait until the future when live streaming sales become popular. At that time, it will be a chaos and anything can be sold.
But when exactly it was, Wu Xianyu frowned and thought about it for a long time, but he couldn't think of it. He just remembered that during the mask period, Douyin was almost on everyone's mobile phone. Forget it, he was not planning to develop in this area, so there was no point in thinking about it.
After dinner, Lin Miaomiao continued to snuggle in Wu Xianyu's arms, but she was not very sleepy now because she had just caught up on a nap. She downloaded Tik Tok on her mobile phone, and Lin Miaomiao laughed from time to time.
Wu Xianyu was looking at the message sent by Jiang Tianhao
Wang Leehom from Jiangzhou: This app is too weird. I don't dare to play it for too long. I just use it for half an hour. But your idea is good. I have asked my parents to shoot it. I think it will be finished tomorrow. Remember to pay attention to it then.
Xianyu: Got it. Remember to take clean and healthy photos. People nowadays value this.
Jiangzhou Wang Leehom: OK []
Lin Miaomiao was still holding her phone and laughing, when suddenly a hand took the phone away from her hand. She looked up and saw Wu Xianyu's chin. Lin Miaomiao turned her head and looked at him.
"What are you doing? You're having fun."
Wu Xianyu shook his phone and asked Lin Miaomiao to check the time.
"Pay attention to the time. This app can easily make people addicted. You should also pay attention. We are in the third year of high school now. Have you finished your National Day homework yet?"
Seeing that the time on the phone screen was already three o'clock in the afternoon, Lin Miaomiao smacked her lips and stopped playing with her phone.
"This new software is a real roadblock for us high school students. If we get tired of doing homework and start watching videos without noticing, the whole afternoon will have passed, and the whole day will have been wasted."
"It's good that you have this kind of awareness. Don't watch videos if you have nothing to do. Do your homework first. The amount of homework this time is quite large."
After returning the phone to Lin Miaomiao, Wu Xianyu stood up and took the homework of both of them. When Lin Miaomiao saw the homework, she couldn't help but sigh, but finally resigned herself to her fate and started writing.
The next day, Lin Miaomiao felt much better. Although she still looked a little listless, her stomach no longer hurt. She just kept curled up in Wu Xianyu's arms.
"Xianyu, how did you shoot this kind of video with a stuck beat?"
Lin Miaomiao held her phone in front of Wu Xianyu and pointed at the video that was changing instantly. Wu Xianyu took a look and spoke uncertainly.
“It feels like it was made with video editing software. It must have been a lot of work.”
“Indeed, it looks very troublesome.”
Lin Miaomiao withdrew her hand, slid her fingers across the screen, went to the next video, and quickly swiped away.
Tik Tok is still in its early stages and there aren’t that many interesting videos. It’s not even called Tik Tok yet. After watching several videos that she wasn’t interested in, Lin Miaomiao turned off her phone.
"I should do my homework. I won't be able to have fun if I keep thinking about it."
"Then do your homework. Are your uncle and aunt busy today? They won't be back at noon."
The two took out their homework, and Wu Xianyu chatted casually with Lin Miaomiao.
"They are all busy. My dad has recently started to expand his real estate business, so it's a busy time. My mom is in the new semester, so she needs to be a little busier. I think she will be fine after this holiday. I actually really want them to be busier so they don't have to worry about me."
Wu Xianyu kept moving his hands. He raised his head and looked at Lin Miaomiao. He curled his lips as if he had thought of something.
"This time next year they won't be able to control you, you'll be in college"
"Oh, thinking about it this way, my life suddenly has a purpose."
The expression on Lin Miaomiao's face became much more lively. I wonder if she has already thought about the day when she will be free from her parents' control.
After thinking for a while, Lin Miaomiao took out her mobile phone, connected it to the TV, and started playing music.
After lunch, he spent the whole afternoon doing homework and finally finished it before dark. It was not because the school was kind and gave less homework, but because the National Day holiday was only three days. He had two days to finish his homework because Wu Xianyu had to report to school tomorrow afternoon.
After Lin Miaomiao finished her homework, she let out a long sigh and sorted her schoolbag with a tone full of disdain.
"These are questions that I have written eight hundred times. I can write the answers before I finish reading the questions. I feel like writing these is a waste of time."
"It's for the exam. Besides, the reason you can see the answer at a glance is definitely not because you wrote this question for the 800th time, but because you wrote it 799 times before."
Wu Xianyu gave Lin Miaomiao a bowl of chicken soup as if he was comforting a furious kitten.
Lin Miaomiao glanced at Wu Xianyu sideways and felt that the chicken soup was a bit greasy after drinking it.
Standing up and stretching, Lin Miaomiao looked at her phone and spoke with some dissatisfaction
"Ah? It's already past six o'clock and I haven't played much yet."
Sitting on the sofa, Lin Miaomiao picked up her phone with some frustration, her face full of resentment. She had a stomachache for one day during the three-day holiday, and she had to do homework for one day, and the time was gone. Tomorrow, Xianyu had to go to school early, and there would be no one to accompany her in the afternoon. Thinking of this, Lin Miaomiao moved towards Wu Xianyu's position, so that their legs were close together, and she would touch Wu Xianyu with her knees from time to time.
After attracting Wu Xianyu's attention, Lin Miaomiao raised her head and smiled.
"You're going to school at this time tomorrow, aren't you going to do anything?"
Wu Xianyu looked at her strangely and looked her up and down.
"What can I do if you're not feeling well?"
"Bow your head and I will tell you quietly"
Lin Miaomiao was smiling and waving her little hand at Wu Xianyu. Wu Xianyu was a little wary, but thinking that this person was his girlfriend, he hesitated for a moment and slowly lowered his head.
When Wu Xianyu had almost lowered his head, Lin Miaomiao whispered
"I'll tell you what else you can do, that is."
Feeling the familiar feeling on his lips, Wu Xianyu was a little surprised. He thought Miaomiao was going to play a prank on him. He was fully prepared, but...
Reaching out and holding Lin Miaomiao in his arms, Wu Xianyu wanted to take the initiative, but was stopped by Lin Miaomiao with two "hmms". Wu Xianyu simply let go of his movements and let Lin Miaomiao take the lead.
Lin Miaomiao spread her legs and knelt on the sofa, with Wu Xianyu's thighs beneath her. She kissed Wu Xianyu from a superior position, feeling like a strong woman.
"Boom"
Their lips parted, and a small sound was made. Lin Miaomiao sat on Wu Xianyu's lap, holding his neck with both hands and rubbing his ears.
"Xianyu, you smell so good."
Wu Xianyu put his arms around Lin Miaomiao's waist to prevent her from swaying. Although she was not wearing a skirt, it was still quite exciting.
"Miao Miao, your mouth is also very kissable"
"Hey, I'll reward you again."
Lying on Wu Xianyu's body, Lin Miaomiao could even feel Wu Xianyu's heartbeat in her chest.
As a man, Wu Xianyu's hands were definitely not so honest at this time. He reached one hand into Lin Miaomiao's clothes and gently stroked her waist, while the other hand supported her buttocks, feeling the amazing elasticity.
After being intimate for a while, Wu Xianyu started to chase Lin Miaomiao away. If she didn't leave, he would really turn into a beast. Lin Miaomiao stared at Wu Xianyu's lower body without being shy. She made a face, picked up her schoolbag and went back upstairs.
After Lin Miaomiao left, Wu Xianyu felt a little regretful, but also a little fortunate. He didn't know how long he could hold on. He was a normal man, and he didn't know if there would be any problem if he kept holding it in.
This is a big problem. Thinking of this, Wu Xianyu took out his mobile phone to search for related issues, skipped those exaggerated contents, and focused on reading the relevant doctor's questions and answers. Finally, Wu Xianyu summed it up in one sentence: youth is capital, as long as you are young, there is no problem at all.
Just as I was about to turn off my phone, a message popped up.
Jiangzhou Wang Leehom: Xianyu, the video is ready, take a look and give me a follow
Jiangzhou Wang Leehom: [Link #https]
Clicking on the link will automatically jump to the Douyin account, which is not called Douyin yet. The account name is "Former Jiang's Kitchen". The video is also very simple. Jiang Qillong is standing in the kitchen of the new store. He summarizes his past glory in one sentence and explains his preparation for a new start in two sentences. The remaining less than a minute is spent on shooting the store environment. The table tops are polished to a shine, and Jiang Qillong even wears a transparent mask like the one worn by the auntie serving food in the cafeteria.
The first impression is that it is clean. I looked at the time of posting and it was posted at noon. There are already several comments under the video.
: Jiang's Kitchen? It's really bankrupt. Is this a fresh start?
: Tsk tsk, it’s not easy, after working hard for half a lifetime, I have to start all over again
: The store looks clean. I have heard of Jiang's Kitchen. I will go and try it when I have time.
Wu Xianyu liked the video, followed the account, commented with a "come on", and shared the video with Lin Miaomiao.
After thinking about it, Wu Xianyu registered a new account and commented on the video
: I heard that the bald Meng who set up the Jiang family's chef also got caught? I haven't seen him recently. I heard that there was also a story about Deng Bancheng in it. Is it true?
After sending the message, Wu Xianyu pretended that he had never registered this account, switched back to his original main account, and continued to watch videos.
Lin Miaomiao returned home and heard some noise coming from the kitchen. She put her schoolbag on the sofa and hopped to the kitchen. Seeing Lin Miaomiao coming, Wang Shengnan seemed to have found a handy tool and said,
"It's just right that you're here. Help me beat two eggs and shred some cucumbers."
After saying that, Wang Shengnan gently patted her lower back with a tired look on her face.
Although Lin Miaomiao was a little reluctant to do it, seeing Wang Shengnan like this, she had to help reluctantly.
Seeing Lin Miaomiao's unfamiliar movements, Wang Shengnan couldn't help but say a few words
"I have to learn to cook in the future. There is no girl who can't cook."
"Just make salted fish, he makes it better than me"
Lin Miaomiao looked as if it was natural. Wang Shengnan stood behind her and rolled her eyes, curling her lips.
"Xiaoyu can cook, but that's not a reason for you not to learn how to cook. You can cook occasionally in the future so that Xiaoyu can take a break."
"I got it~~"
Lin Miaomiao dragged out the last line of her voice, showing her impatience. Without waiting for Wang Shengnan to get angry, Lin Miaomiao turned around, stirred the eggs in the bowl and looked at Wang Shengnan.
"Mom, is your school busy this time? Why do you look so tired?"
"It's not that busy, it's the same every year, but I don't know what happened this time, I don't have much energy, and I get out of breath after just a little movement. I guess it's because I'm getting old, and my period isn't on time anymore, oh"
When it comes to the topic of age, Wang Shengnan's tone is full of sadness. She doesn't want to admit that she has already passed her 46th birthday.
Lin Miaomiao was speechless when she heard this answer. It was a bit too much to ask an eighteen-year-old girl to understand a fifty-year-old woman.
Fortunately, Wang Shengnan didn't expect Lin Miaomiao to have any good ideas. Seeing that the preparations were almost done, she drove Lin Miaomiao out of the kitchen and took over the rest of the work.
At Jiang Tianhao's home, Jiang Tianhao, who was watching a video, saw a few red dots in the notification. He clicked on it excitedly and found that an account called '独钓万古' with a cartoon salted fish as its avatar was following him. No need to guess, it must be Wu Xianyu.
Seeing Wu Xianyu's comment "Come on", Jiang Tianhao replied with a thank you and continued to read the other comments. When he saw an account full of numbers and a blank avatar, he couldn't help but frowned. This person was probably a local of Jiangzhou and had some knowledge of the inside story of his family's bankruptcy.
Should I answer or not? Jiang Tianhao actually wanted to have a discussion with this person, but the patience he had developed as a customer service representative during this period of time made him hold back for the time being. He decided to wait for his father to come back from work in the evening and let him reply.
The physical examination revealed problems. I was forced to lose weight. I couldn’t eat anything. I was not happy at all. I couldn’t even type. My mind was a mess.
