Yuan Shu mesmerized everyone the moment she went downstairs. Shi Bin was stunned. Then, he said, âSister-in-law, youâre so beautiful!â
Even Shi Lu, who was leaning against the wall with one hand in his pocket, couldnât help but tease, âWith such a beautiful woman by my side, it should be difficult not to attract attention. Iâm a big star, so I shouldnât be too flashy when I go out.â
Shi Yi rolled her eyes at him. âThen donât go. The two of us will accompany Sister-in-law!â
Shi Lu admitted defeat. âI was wrong. Of course I have to go.â Then, he waved the camera bag in his other hand. âHow can there be no photographer for the spring outing?â n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
After receiving everyoneâs praise, Yuan Shu was happy even though she didnât care about her appearance. She smiled and said, âAlright, letâs go.â
After Wu Yan prepared the things, everyone set off.
It was Monday, so there were not many people in Lakeside Park. However, to be safe, Shi Lu still wore a mask, sunglasses, and a hat to cover herself up tightly to avoid being recognized by fans.
They had just entered spring, and the temperature had risen. The sunlight wasnât too scorching, and the warmth that enveloped her body lifted her mood as well.
There was a man-made lake in Lakeside Park and there were cute little duck-shaped boats for rent by the lake. On the sparkling lake, the little ducks swayed in the water in the direction of the wind. Two to three boats carried people to the middle of the lake. The atmosphere was leisurely and comfortable, as if even the pace of life had slowed down.
Around the artificial lake, there was a large area of pink cherry blossoms. It was the season when flowers started blooming, so large patches of pink and white petals embellished the green grass. The scenery was romantic and beautiful.
As it was a weekday, not many people came for a picnic. There were only two to three groups of people sitting on the grass.
They chose a spot near the lake where there was almost no one around. Then, Wu Yan laid out the picnic cloth and placed the sandwiches and pastries she had brought. She poured coffee for the four of them before silently retreating into the distance.
The four of them sat around as they chatted happily. The atmosphere was extremely cordial. Shi Yi and Shi Bin started to banter and even stood up to chase each other around the cherry blossom forest. Yuan Shu and Shi Lu sat on the picnic cloth quietly as they enjoyed the pastries and coffee.
After being here for a while, Yuan Shu had been influenced by the habits of the people of this era. She gradually began to adapt to products like coffee and started to appreciate its rich aftertaste.
After taking a sip, Yuan Shu put down the exquisite coffee cup in her hand and smiled as she watched Shi Yi and Shi Bin fool around. After a while, she asked Shi Lu, âHow much do you know about Yuan An?â
Shi Lu didnât care why Yuan Shu suddenly asked this question. He thought about this company carefully, but unfortunately, he knew very little about it.
Shi Lu shook her head. Under his baseball cap, his eyes were filled with confusion. âI only know that itâs a digital technology company. Itâs currently researching an online technology park project. Iâm not sure about the rest.â âOnline technology park?â Yuan Shu repeated. This term was unfamiliar to her.
Shi Lu explained to her according to his understanding, âItâs equivalent to an online platform. Companies from all over the country can apply to enter the technology park online. There are no limitations regarding the size of the company and the rent. Simply put, you can start a company online. This is a very progressive idea, so its feasibility has yet to be verified.â
âItâs indeed very progressive,â Yuan Shu thought to herself. Whether in ancient times or in todayâs society, the fact that shops and companies could do business virtually was a huge breakthrough. No wonder so many people were eyeing Yuan An Corporation covetously.
Yuan Shu was distracted by her own thoughts when Shi Lu suddenly called out to her, âSister-in-law.â
Shi Lu was about to say something when he was suddenly interrupted by the zither music not far away. He had wanted to ask Yuan Shu about Shi Xiao, but he lost the best opportunity to do so..
