âLet me tell you, I just dragged Nuonuo out to dance, and she dazzled the whole room; everyone stopped to watch herâ¦â
Upon seeing Jiang Xu, Bai Xiaoya was very excited and babbled on and on.
Her face was all flushed.
This made Jiang Xu wonder.
He thought to himself, Bai Xiaoya couldnât possibly be having some weird thoughts about his girlfriend, could she?
But on the surface, he didnât show any signs of that.
Instead, he pulled An Nuonuo over and kissed her on the face, âYou did great, making me proud again.â
Bai Xiaoyaâs smile disappeared in an instant.
Stamping her feet in frustration, she said, âHow annoying, I really hate it, you two just like to show off your affection in front of me, donât you?â
âNot at all, Sister Xiaoya, youâre overthinking it,â Jiang Xu shook his head, then pecked An Nuonuo on the face again.
ââ¦â Bai Xiaoya said through gritted teeth, âAlright, alright, if thatâs how you want to play.
Just wait. Iâll find myself several freshman boyfriends, a different one each day, and Iâll flaunt them in front of you too.â
Wang Xiaoyuan said with a cheeky smile, âWhile youâre at it, find me a few as well.â
Jiang Xu shook his head and chuckled, âLetâs head back. I should keep Nuonuo away from you guys more often, so she doesnât get corrupted.â
The next morning when Jiang Xu woke up, he learned that Chen Yue had entered her birthing period; her stomach had been hurting a lot last night.
The medical team had already moved into the house and was keeping Chen Yue under twenty-four-hour observation.
After visiting Chen Yue and making sure she was okay, Jiang Xu asked An Nuonuo to stay and take care of her in his place.
He had already arranged to visit the Chrysanthemum Factory today.
In the afternoon, Jiang Xu met Old Master Ren in his office.
At that time, he was still quite young and in good shape.
He had an energy about him that many young people lacked.
His eyes were bright and powerful.
Jiang Xu greeted him with great respect, completely placing himself in the position of the younger generation.
âMr. Jiang, Iâve long admired your reputation,â Old Master Ren said with a smile.
âYou flatter me, Iâve only been pottering around,â Jiang Xu shook his head as he looked around Old Master Renâs office.
It was very simple and unpretentious, without too many luxury items, and not particularly large.
âMr. Jiang, please have some tea.â
Old Master Renâs eldest daughter came in from outside and personally prepared tea for the two of them.
At that time, Meng Wan was still somewhat green, her gaze towards Jiang Xu filled with a bit of curiosity.
âThank you,â Jiang Xu nodded slightly as he took a sip of the tea, âHmm, Miss Meng has good tea-making skills.â
Old Master Ren also sipped his tea with a hearty laugh and then took the initiative to ask Jiang Xu about the purpose of his visit.
Jiang Xu knew that the old man didnât like to beat around the bush and was decisive in his actions.
So, he got straight to the point, âItâs like this, the 5G chip RF section has been fully developed by my company.â
Old Master Ren and Meng Wanâs expressions changed slightly.
Jiang Xu gave a look to the engineer who had come with him.
He immediately brought out a computer and some documents and placed them in front of them.
After going through them, Old Master Ren couldnât help but exclaim, âMr. Jiang, you are truly young and promising, with great aspirations.â
In the past, he had only heard about Jiang Xu from people around him and his youngest daughter.
Now that he had met him in person, he realized the rumors had been conservative.
Meng Wan asked, âMr. Jiang, how do you propose we collaborate?â
Jiang Xu replied, âI know you are also researching 5G, and I only hope that once it has been developed, it can be prioritized for my use.
Of course, it would be best if the price could be a bit cheaper.
In return, Iâm willing to hand over all the technology related to the 5G RF.â
Without any hesitation, Old Master Ren said, âItâs a deal.â
Jiang Xu was somewhat surprised.
This manâs way of doing business really suited his taste.
And so, the deal was settled just like that.
With this technology, the Chrysanthemum Factory would not need much time to completely figure out 5G.
After the contract was signed, Meng Wan invited Jiang Xu for a casual meal at the company.
Jiang Xu smiled.
Itâs just these pragmatic people who would invite Jiang Xu to eat in the cafeteria.
He didnât mind it.
Not to mention, the food in the cafeteria was actually quite good.
During the meal, Jiang Xu mentioned something: âThe patents for 2G, 3G, and 4G are all overseas.â
âSuppose, I mean just suppose, if we were to develop 5G first, what would you do if foreign countries restricted it?â
Many 5G technologies are built on top of 2G, 3G, and 4G.
Itâs just like building a tower.
5G is the fifth floor, and 2G, 3G, and 4G are the foundation and the first few floors.
If youâre not allowed to build the first few floors, even if the fifth floor is lavish and impressive, itâs useless.
In his previous life, it was because the Chrysanthemum Factory moved too quickly that it posed a threat to foreign manufacturers.
You kids managed to develop 5G before us, so how are we supposed to use patents to reap profits globally?
So they played the hooligan, banning all IT-related patents.
You had to rely on everything by yourselves.
It was really frustrating to be a leader in 5G but not being able to use it.
Jiang Xu wasnât sure if they would listen to him.
But it was worth mentioning it anyway.
âMr. Jiang makes a good point,â said Old Master Ren with a serious expression. âThanks for the reminder, I know what to do now.â
After the meal, Jiang Xu took the engineers back with him.
No sooner had he arrived home than he heard Chen Yue was about to give birth.
Jiang Xu was suddenly startled.
That was a bit quick.
He hurriedly went to ask the doctor.
The doctor said with a smile, âMr. Jiang, please donât worry, your mother has been very well taken care of.â
Jiang Xuâs heart, which had been hanging, was now at ease.
Well, thatâs good.
An Feng, Li Yuanjuan, and Chu Youwei, among others, had all come and were now waiting outside.
An Feng wrapped his arm around Jiang Shanâs neck: âItâll be fine, donât worry.â
Speaking of which, their experiences were quite similar, both having children later in life.
Well, not really old, both were just in their forties.
An Ping was already crawling all over the place, and could even walk a few steps on his own.
âHmm, Iâm not too worried,â said Jiang Shan stubbornly.
His body was trembling all the while.
âDad,â Jiang Xu tried to distract him. âHave you thought of a name for my sister?â
âIâve thought of a few,â Jiang Shan nodded. âYou guys help us see which name is more suitable.
Jiang Rourou, Jiang Yueyue, Jiang Xiaxia.â
An Feng: âUh⦠theyâre all okay.â
Itâs hard to judge these names.
âRight, I think theyâre quite good too,â Jiang Shan smiled. âWhich one do you think we should choose?â
An Nuonuo bowed her head and didnât speak.
Chu Youwei looked around.
âCough, cough.â Jiang Xu coughed. âI think, why not call her Hui Yan.
âHuiâ represents wisdom and intelligence.
And âYanâ means beauty and elegance.
This name carries the beauty of wisdom as well as a touch of literary charm.â
An Feng clapped his hands: âThatâs a nice name.â
Chu Youwei and An Nuonuo nodded in agreement.
âHuh?â Jiang Shan scratched his head. âBut I think Jiang Rourou, Jiang Yueyue, Jiang Xiaxia sound nice.
âTheyâre so easy to understand and remember.â
Everyone: ââ¦â
