(Regarding the update note: It's almost the Lunar New Year and I'm quite busy. In the countryside, everyone is busy preparing for the year-end.)
Previously, Mo Jingchun had never eaten a cheese stick. After trying one, he suddenly felt he had missed out on so much.
So it turns out, cheese sticks are this delicious!
Soft with a slight tanginess, it feels like gently kissing a newborn baby, fresh and not greasy.
In short, he wanted to eat another cheese stick.
"Candy, can brother have another? I'll buy you a bag tomorrow."
The little guy was shocked by Mo Jingchun's words, as if asking Candy for a cheese stick was like snatching a milk bottle from her.
Though very reluctant, the little guy still pitifully took out a cheese stick from the bag and handed it to Mo Jingchun.
"Brother~ here you go."
After saying that, the little guy quickly added, "Brother~ it's the last one."
So, there they were, a big one and a small one sitting on the bed, half-closed eyes, enjoying the cheese sticks.
The two looked as if they were cast from the same mold.
On Wednesday evening, in Mo Jingchun's office, Su Wenyan looked utterly exhausted, sitting there dozing off.
Candy sat on the sofa, watching cartoons on Mo Jingchun's phone, while Mo Jingchun was seriously reviewing the materials Su Wenyan had brought back.
After going through all the materials, Mo Jingchun had a general idea.
The only issue was that recruiting personnel might be a bit challenging, but with Candy Technology Co., Ltd.'s salary and benefits, there was no need to worry too much about not finding professionals.
Looking at the drowsy Su Wenyan, Mo Jingchun felt a bit embarrassed.
Don't think business trips are all freedom and fun; most of the time, they're physically and mentally exhausting. Especially since this was Su Wenyan's second consecutive trip without a break.
"Ahem~"
Mo Jingchun coughed lightly twice, but Su Wenyan didn't react. Helplessly, Mo Jingchun had to cough twice more, this time much louder.
"Huh? What's up?" Su Wenyan yawned continuously.
"I've finished reading the materials. You did a great job. Let's go with this piece of land. I'll have Xu Pengfei contact the local authorities to start construction as soon as possible."
"As for you, you've worked hard this past month. Go home and rest well for two days before returning to work. I don't want to see you in the news headlines someday with a story about sudden death."
"Alright, boss, I'll head out then. If you need anything, call me."
Shortly after Su Wenyan left, Xu Pengfei came over. After explaining the company's building construction to him, Mo Jingchun left with Candy.
Mo Jingchun hadn't forgotten his promise to Candy last night, so he went to the supermarket to buy another bag of cheese sticks.
In the underground supermarket, Candy sat in the shopping cart, arms wide open, saying in her childish voice, "Brother, Guoguo wants to buy this many cheese sticks."
Mo Jingchun found it amusing. If the little guy's arms were any longer, he would want to buy even more.
While he cherished the little guy, Mo Jingchun wouldn't really indulge Candy's wish to buy that many.
"No way. Brother promised you last night to only buy one bag of cheese sticks."
Initially excited, Candy's little head drooped immediately after hearing this from Mo Jingchun.
In the end, Mo Jingchun bought two bags, telling Candy that the other bag was for brother himself.
Time always slips away unnoticed. As the final exams approached, Li Xuanyu managed to lead a college-organized team to win second place in the national Internet+ competition.
The first place, however, was taken by students from Shuimu University next door.
In the field of computing, undoubtedly, Shuimu University surpasses Jing University, which is an undeniable fact.
Mo Jingchun only paid slight attention to these events, without taking them to heart.
What concerned him the most was that all the paperwork for the new company site had been completed, and a date was set for groundbreaking.
Another thing bringing joy to Mo Jingchun was that, after much persuasion, advisor Na finally helped him settle the paperwork for his minor program.
Heading to Gaoyang City by high-speed train, Xu Pengfei bought three business class tickets directly.
Mo Jingchun took Candy, occupying one seat, while Su Wenyan and Xu Pengfei each occupied one.
In a cabin with only five business class seats, Mo Jingchun's group filled three. As for the other two, it seemed they weren't sold, as no one claimed them.
The little guy sniffed and asked curiously, "Brother, where are we going?"
"Taking you to have fun!"
.......
People wearing hard hats stood in a desolate green field overrun by weeds. Mo Jingchun was among them, standing right in the center of the gathering.
Candy, in Mo Jingchun's arms, clutched a big red flower, her little face full of joy.
At the moment of cutting the ribbon, Mo Jingchun held the little guy's tiny hand, and together they cut it.
This moment was captured forever by the camera.
At noon, after the local authorities treated them to a meal, Mo Jingchun didn't linger in the county but caught the last high-speed train back to Jing City, the group returning together.
When they got back to Jing City, it was already dark.
Below the apartment building, back from the county, Mo Jingchun said to Xu Pengfei, "Xu Pengfei, tomorrow ask the office staff if anyone's willing to be stationed on-site at the company's new location. The job might be a bit tough, involving not only monitoring construction progress but also promptly reporting daily on-site information back to the company."
"Okay, boss."
Looking at Candy, wrapped in a coat and already asleep in his arms, Mo Jingchun said to Xu Pengfei, "Alright then, you should go rest too. Let me know tomorrow after you get a result. If no one is willing to go, we'll recruit someone."
"No problem."
Back at the dormitory, after cooking, Mo Jingchun woke up the sleeping Candy.
"Candy?"
"Candy?"
The little guy turned over, ignoring Mo Jingchun and continued sleeping.
After calling for a long time, she finally opened her eyes groggily.
Looking at the familiar bedroom, she seemed a bit confused, not immediately realizing how she was back after just a nap.
"Candy, it's time for dinner."
"Guoguo wants cheese sticks."
"No way. Eating dinner will help you grow taller, to be as tall as brother."
The little guy pouted, reluctantly whispering, "Oh."
After eating and drinking to her fill, the little guy wasn't sleepy anymore and started creating chaos in the room. Despite being tattered, Mo Jingchun intended to throw away the cactus each time, but Candy was unwilling, insisting on keeping it.
Watching Candy play energetically and adorably on the carpet with her toys, Mo Jingchun found himself in a trance, not even knowing what he was thinking at that moment.
Or perhaps, in those moments, Mo Jingchun's mind was simply blank.
