Cao Xiaolian was dumbfounded.

Did he raise a dog?

Heavens, it was hard to imagine what it would be like for Li Yugeng to bring a dog with him.

A male god that exuded an aura of abstinence, holding a dog in his hand …

This scene was simply too refreshing.

"Did you hear that?"

"Yes, a dog." Cao Xiaoling said honestly, "Where did you get it from?"

"I went for a run yesterday morning and picked it up."

"Picked it up?"

The probability of humans raising dogs in the capital was almost the highest in the world. Many people here owned dogs anyway, and it was said that Li Yiyi also had a poodle, which was as rare as a treasure.

"What kind is it?"

Cao Xiaolian did not hate this little thing, but she did not really like it because it was so hard to get rid of it.

"It's a very cute dog, commonly known as a Chinese field dog."

Until she hung up the phone, Cao Xiaolian was still thinking about what kind of dog was this.

In his previous life, there were also dog-breeders, big ones like Gu Mu, Husky, and smaller ones like Teddy and Bome. There was also a special aesthetics to raise a dachshund, there were all of them. However, for a Chinese field dog, she was indeed inexperienced and had never heard of it before.

He thought about going back to the hotel and couldn't help but ask Cao Xiaoxia before he went to bed.

She was, after all, still a student. Every day, she came in contact with more information than herself, and after a day of playing, Cao Xiaoxia immediately burst into laughter. It was extremely exaggerated.

"Sis, I've already given up on you. A dog is a dog, and a Chinese field dog." If you say that you don't want to study in the Chinese department, you'll lose. "

Not to mention Cao Xiaoxia, even she herself wanted to laugh.

To think that he could come up with such a roundabout name for a Chinese field dog.

After staying with Cao Xiaoxia for another three days, it was about time for her to return to school.

Before he left, he warned his sister repeatedly, for example, he wanted to get along with his classmates. In the future, he would stay away from that Tao Yun. Finally, he even asked her to visit his house in Shanghai.

However, thinking about her sister's look of disapproval, Cao Xiaolan felt that she was probably playing a lute to a cow.

By the time the train arrived at Beijing Station, it was already the beginning of the Chinese lights.

As soon as he stepped out of the station, his shoulder was slapped.

"Eh, why is it you?" Cao Xiaolian was surprised.

"What, you don't want to see me?" Shang Yin pretended to be sad as he replied, "Then I'll be leaving first."

"I was afraid that you would be too skinny and didn't send anyone to help me carry them."

Shang Yin rolled his eyes at her, and smiled, "Well, you see."

After saying that, the two of them went straight to the parking lot.

"Beep, beep."

Not far away, a black BMW flashed with light as Shang Yin pressed the button in his hand.

"Yo, not bad."

Cao Xiaoliu teased him, "Three days apart, you must have a whole new level of respect for me."

"Come on." Shang Yin opened the passenger door and indicated for Cao Xiaoling to get in. "You only know when you're here doing business. If you don't wear a proper car, everyone will suspect you of having the ability to do so."

As she spoke, she had already sat up, pulled her seat belt, and lit up the fire. "This image is also a face project now. It's exhausting me to death."

That's right, Shang Yin had bruises under his eyes, it seemed like she hadn't had a good rest for a long time.

"How busy have you been recently?"

Basically, she and Shang Yin would call each other every day. The real estate projects now belonged to both of them, and Shang Yin would often call her to make decisions.

He just didn't expect the real estate to be so hot these days.

Although it wasn't like the later generations, the price of a house had already reached an astronomical level. However, the current land prices were extremely cheap. Furthermore, with the support of the government, and with the combined efforts of Cao Xiaolian and Shang Yin, they were able to take a piece of the land.

"You don't know, it's too much trouble dealing with the government." Shang Yin had already walked out of the basement. "I'm laughing with you everyday, and the muscles on my face seem especially well-developed."

"Take your time."

As the car drove on the Second Ring Road, Cao Xiaolan noticed that something was wrong and asked, "Where are we going?"

"I'll give you a welcoming reception."

"Go. Seriously. I still need to study when I get back. I need to take the exam when the school starts."

"Fine, fine, fine. I won't hold you up for too long." "Someone wants to see you."

"Who is it?"

"You'll know when you get there."

Cao Xiaolian thought to herself that he was most likely Lin Mubai. The person that she and Shang Yin were acquainted with was him.

Although they didn't have much to say to each other now, they had worked together before. Moreover, he didn't know how Lin Mubai was doing in Hainan.

The car stopped in front of a house on the second ring road. After getting off the car, Shang Yin pouted, "We've borrowed Young Master Lin's limelight tonight, let's go back to our private rooms to eat."

There were indeed quite a lot of private dishes in the future generations, but he never would have thought that in this era where everyone was working hard to get rich and well-off, there would be some.

Pushing open the heavy wooden door that carried the weight of history, a row of red lanterns appeared in front of him.

In front of him was a small courtyard with two big red lanterns on either side. On the far left was a grape arbor with a cute little dog crawling on it.

The front door of the house was wide open, and there were two rooms on the left and right of the house.

"This yard isn't bad."

With that, Shang Yin walked forward as she followed closely behind.

When Lin Mubai heard Shang Yin's voice, he immediately looked at the person behind him.

She had lost weight.

Because of the matter with Hainan, he was too anxious and did not have the time to care about these children. When things turned out well, Ye Zichen suddenly remembered that he hadn't contacted Shang Yin and Cao Xiaoling in a long time.

When she asked, she found out that she had also come to Beijing and that something like that had happened.

His heart ached for a moment, but more than that, there was an indescribable joy.

That's right, Cao Xiaolan was twisting too much.

It could be said that Lin Mubai had the wind and rain, but other than the matter with Hainan, everything else had gone smoothly. In the eyes of others, they had to always look up to someone else.

Except for Cao Xiaolian.

She had always treated him in a normal manner, not proud in the slightest that she was with him, not even paying attention to him. At first, he felt a little new, but as time went by, he was occasionally unhappy.

Especially the events in Hainan.

Who would have thought that the real estate bubble would come so violently this time? However, Cao Xiaolian had noticed it earlier and had calmly told him that he would leave if he did not listen to her advice.

Other than some resentment towards Cao Xiaolan, he didn't try to persuade her again. Perhaps, he would just listen to her. Most of the time, there was a sense of defeat in front of her that made her lose face.

That's right, the frustration of a successful man failing in front of his beloved woman made him the most irritated.

Therefore, when he found out that Cao Xiaolian had also suffered a setback, he felt sorry for her, but he also felt a faint sense of joy in his heart.

"Xiao Lian."

Lin Mubai was surprised and happy at the same time. He said with a happy expression, "Have you been well recently?"

Cao Xiaoling smiled. "It's fine. What about you?"

Some were polite, and some were eccentric.

This was Lin Mubai's first year.

He was alarmed in his heart. He felt that Cao Xiaolian was not as good as she used to be with him, but he maintained his composure and said, "I've been through some trouble, but it's settled now."

"All right, you're going to stand outside and reminisce about the old days?" Shang Yin interrupted him, feigning displeasure. "I'm very hungry, you guys don't want to go in, I'll eat first."

Lin Mubai said in realization, "Let's go in. Didn't you take the train for two days? You must be hungry."

With such a passionate Lin Mubai, Cao Xiaolian was at a loss as to what to do.

The private dishes were ordered a month ahead of time. He only needed to tell the boss what to avoid, and the rest would follow the arrangements, not accept orders.

Therefore, not long after the three of them sat down, they started serving the dishes one after another.

"The main flavor here is Cantonese. It's light and light, so try it."

Cao Xiao Lian looked at the plate of food that could be eaten in one bite. She was hungry, so she didn't stand on ceremony and started to eat with Shang Yin.

"I heard from Shang Yin that you are currently studying at the Institute of Fashion Studies."

"Yes." Cao Xiaolian stopped her chopsticks and said, "We are listening in on the class now. Let's learn first and then we can take the exam together."

"Is there anything I can help you with?" Lin Mubai smiled, "I have a friend that has a good relationship with the Principal."

"No need." Cao Xiaolian shook her head, "All of you are not bad. You are easy to get into contact with."

Again, again.

She was always like this. She would never accept her good intentions, but rather, she would reject them.

But that's why he couldn't stop, could it?

"That's fine too, if you need anything, you must not be courteous to me. Do you understand?"

When Lin Mubai saw her nod his head, he became happy again.

As for the matter of Li Yuyi also attending the Institute of Fashion Studies, he avoided the question. Although he considered Li Yuyi to be his sister, the other party was not. If it caused any unnecessary misunderstandings, that would be a huge problem.

It would be better to save time. We can talk about this after we've settled the issue with his parents.

The food was delicious and refreshing. It was very suitable for those who had just gotten tired from a long journey.

"That's right, how's the resolution of the matter with Hainan?"

Since the other party was treating him to a meal, he couldn't pretend that he didn't know anything.

Lin Mubai laughed, "I thought you didn't care about me."

This sentence was somewhat coquettish, and even Shang Yin couldn't help but look at him with a meaningful gaze.

"At first it was really deadly. All my money, and all my loans, was burned to the ground in that storm. At that time, I really regretted not listening to your words and decided to stop at once. "

Even though it had been a long time since that incident, he still couldn't help but feel a twinge in his heart when he thought of the effort he had put in.

"No one would have thought of that." Cao Xiaolian comforted, "After all, it was such a profitable project back then."

Even she herself was not completely sure.

In her previous life, she only knew that there would be a financial storm and that the legend of Hainan's real estate would be destroyed.

That was why she was so careful when it came to Hainan's investments.

If she didn't have the memories of her previous life, perhaps she would have been swept away by this storm.

"Luckily, my brother introduced a businessman. He belongs to the group of people that have too much money and cannot find a way to invest, so we are starting our real estate in the capital right now."

"Huh?" Cao Xiaoling was confused. "Still making real estate?"

They could be considered colleagues now.

"Yeah." Lin Mubai laughed, "Get up where you fell. Besides, I'm still very optimistic about Chinese real estate projects. "

"Mm, then do your job well." Cao Xiaolian nodded, "Our country has just entered an economic society, so the demand for real estate will be great in the future."

"Yo, I thought you'd be unhappy. After all, we're colleagues." Shang Yin blinked as he heaved a long sigh, "It looks like we're enemies to each other!"

Her expression was so funny that it made both of them laugh.

"Xiao Lian, since we're now competitors, you won't have any objections towards me, right?"

Lin Mubai looked at her mischievously. His peach blossom eyes seemed to know how to speak.
