After dinner and watching a movie, Wang Zhong sent Li Wanruo home again, and then took the road south, all the way back to Longtan Village.

"Boss, what took you so long?" Liu Li, who was dressed as a waiter, saw Wang Zhong's pickup truck parked in the courtyard and hurried out of the house to greet him.

"I just ran some errands by the way." Wang Zhong smiled and got out of the passenger seat. He put all the spices he bought in the car and packed them in big bags.

"Why are you still here? Didn't I tell you that we would be closed today and ask you all to go back early?" Wang Zhong looked at Liu Li and asked.

Liu Li smiled and said: "When I go back, I warm myself by the fire and play with my mobile phone. It's the same thing when I stay in the store."

"You just want to roast yourself by the fire in the store, right?" Wang Zhong joked.

Liu Li responded confidently: "I am not a free person. The phone in the store kept ringing today, but I answered it all."

Wang Zhongdao: "Then I have to pay you overtime pay?"

Liu Li said: "Forget the overtime pay, today I will be a volunteer."

While he was talking, Wang Zhong had already opened the oilcloth covering the carriage and unloaded the things in the carriage.

"I'll help you!" Liu Li reached out to take the two big bags from Wang Zhong's hand. They were filled with dried chili peppers. Dried chili peppers can last for a long time as long as they are stored properly. They are also the things Wang Zhong buys the most.

.

In addition to the condiments, there are several plastic boxes for condiments.

"It's just such a small amount, do you still need your help?" Wang Zhong said: "If you really want to help, go inside and help me push the cart out."

"Oh... Okay!" Liu Li then remembered that Wang Zhong had already prepared two four-wheeled trolleys in order to facilitate the transportation of ingredients and other things.

Liu Li hurriedly entered the house and pushed one of the cars out, not forgetting to grab a rope.

Helping Wang Zhong to load all the things into the car and tying ropes to secure them to prevent them from being pushed away, the two of them pushed the cart toward the kitchen. Liu Li said, "There are quite a few people calling to order food today.

If you could come back early, you would be able to earn at least five to six thousand today."

Wang Zhongdao: "You can never make enough money, but you only have one body. If you are exhausted, you have to spend money to recuperate."

Liu Li said: "Then according to what you say, everyone should stop working hard and just make enough money to eat and drink?"

Wang Zhongdao: "That's not what you say. If others are motivated, have goals, and have the motivation to fight, of course they can work hard. After all, everyone is an independent individual and has the right to choose his or her future.

I've always been lazy, have no ambition, and don't want to make myself too tired."

If Liu Li really believed what Wang Zhong said, she would be in trouble.

At a young age of 20, he built such a large farmhouse and invested millions. How could he really be unmotivated?

"You are a person. Others are worried that their business is not doing well and are trying every possible means to win over customers. But it is better for you. You are worried that your business is too good and you have to close down and do not do any business."

Wang Zhongdao: "Why, don't you want to take a vacation?"

"What kind of holiday are you repairing?" Liu Li said: "I'm still waiting for the store to make more profits, and you can give me more bonuses at the end of the month."

Wang Zhongdao: "Your bonus is indispensable."

"I'm not afraid that you will lose mine. Of course, the more bonuses, the better." Liu Li said.

Although Liu Li didn't point it out, the way she looked at Wang Zhong couldn't escape Wang Zhong's fiery golden eyes.

In the evening, after dinner, Wang Zhong sat in front of the computer, typing on the keyboard with his hands quickly, the keyboard made a crackling sound, and lines of text appeared on the screen.

Suddenly, the prestige message alert sounded.

Wang Zhong lowered his head and saw that the screen that had been turned off automatically lit up. The message was sent by none other than Li Wanruo.

A rather cute expression.

Wang Chong replied: "What's wrong?"

If he were a scumbag who was accustomed to sweet words, or an emotional guru who knew how to talk to girls, he would definitely belittle Wang Zhong if he saw how good he was at it.

But even if Wang Zhong knew it, he wouldn't care.

"What are you doing?" Li Wanruo's message came over again.

Wang Zhong: "Work."

Li Wanruo: "Work? Still working so late?"

Wang Zhong: "It's not about the store, it's about part-time work."

Li Wanruo: "Curious (expression) to write a novel?"

Wang Zhong: "That's right."

Li Wanruo: "How is the writing going?"

Wang Zhong: "It's almost over. It will be over in about ten minutes."

Li Wanruo: "I won't disturb you, right?"

Wang Zhong: "It's a little bit, but it's okay."

"Then you get busy first!" Li Wanruo replied, but after a while, the next sentence came over again: "Call me when you're done."

Wang Zhong responded simply: "No problem."

Ten minutes later, Li Wanruo sent another message: "???Aren't you finished yet?"

A smile appeared on Wang Zhong's face, and his fingers moved quickly on the screen: "I just finished my work!"

When it comes to relationships between men and women, whoever is tempted first will be more passive.

On the other side of the prestige, Li Wanruo looked at the message sent by Wang Zhong, and his big black and translucent eyes suddenly opened wider, and the corners of his mouth could not help but tilt up, with a smile on his face.

In the past few days, Wang Zhong's contact with Li Wanruo became more and more frequent.

That night, before Wang Zhong started coding, Li Wanruo made a video call.

"I've never seen anyone write a novel. Can you show me how you write it?"

As if afraid that Wang Zhong would disagree, Li Wanruo hurriedly added: "Don't worry, I won't make any noise or disturb you."

"I'm not easily disturbed!" Wang Zhong smiled and put his phone next to him, with the camera facing him.

Seeing Wang Zhong sitting upright, his fingers flying, staring at the screen intently, Li Wanruo felt a little crazy for a moment.

Regardless of whether it’s a man or a woman, the opposite sex who works hard is always more likely to attract people’s attention.

What's more, Li Wanruo, whose heartstrings had already been plucked by Wang Zhong.

An hour later, Wang Zhong uploaded the manuscript of more than 10,000 words to the draft box of the website, then turned off the computer and turned his attention to his mobile phone.

In the video, Li Wanruo was lying on the bed, with his head facing the camera. At first glance, he knew that he had waited too long and fell asleep.

"Wanruo?"

"Wanruo?"

Wang Zhong shouted softly.

"Huh?" Li Wanruo heard someone calling his name while he was sleepy. He subconsciously raised his head and looked at the phone screen in front of his face with sleepy eyes. After a moment, his eyes suddenly widened and his pupils shrank, without even thinking.

Thinking about it, he subconsciously raised his hand and pressed the phone on the bed. He quickly got out of bed and ran into the toilet. Looking at himself in the mirror with messy hair and no bruises on his face, Li Wanruo wanted to punch the mirror.

Smashed.

Fortunately, I didn't put on much makeup, otherwise I would have spent all my makeup this time.

After yelling a few times, I quickly packed it up, then returned to the room and picked up the phone.

I saw that Wang Zhong at the other end of the video had already changed his position. His cell phone seemed to be standing upright while Wang Zhong was sitting on the sofa, holding a book with a black and red cover in his hand.

"Brother Wang Zhong!"

Li Wanruo's voice came from the receiver, and Wang Zhong turned to look at the screen.

"Have you packed it up?" Wang Zhong asked with a smile.

Li Wanruo nodded with a blushing face.

Fortunately, Wang Zhong knew that this girl was thin-skinned and did not continue to tease her about this matter. Instead, he changed the topic and talked about other things.

Another week passed by, but there was still no movement in the system. Wang Zhong was enjoying his leisure time. While running the farmhouse and taking care of his elderly uncle and aunt, he kept in touch with the little girl Li Wanruo. Every night, the girl would take the initiative.

Make a video call and chat with Wang Zhong for a while.

The two of them mostly chatted about everyday things, nothing out of the ordinary. They were mostly shared by the girl Li Wanruo, and Wang Zhong was responsible for coordinating the conversation.

"Boss, do you have any plans for your break tomorrow?" After work that day, Wang Zhong was checking the accounts behind the counter, and Liu Li next to him suddenly asked.

"Tomorrow I made an appointment with a high school classmate to go to Zhangjiajie to see the snow scenery."

"Going to Zhangjiajie?" Liu Li rolled her eyes and immediately joked with a smile: "She must be a female classmate!"

"Of course he's a boy!" Wang Zhong said: "Among my high school classmates, there are only a few male classmates who we still keep in touch with who were very good in the past."

Liu Li's eyes lit up: "Just you two?"

Wang Zhongdao: "Of course not."

"And his girlfriend and his girlfriend's cousin."

"My girlfriend's cousin?" Liu Li's heart suddenly rang with alarm bells: "On the day our store opened last time, those three came to our store?"

"Yes, it's them!" Wang Zhong said.

Liu Li nodded and said nothing more.

Early the next morning, Wang Zhong got into the Hongqi h9 and headed straight for the city.

He didn't even look for Yuan Xiao, and went directly to Li Wanruo's community.

"Hey! I'm downstairs at your house, come down quickly!"

"Brother Wang Zhong, wait for me, I'll be down right away!" Li Wanruo's excited voice came from the receiver.

Within a few minutes, Li Wanruo, wearing a pure white down jacket, a cashmere hat and a scarf, and pulling a cute pink suitcase, trotted out of the building.

Wang Zhong, who was standing by the car, hurriedly greeted him: "Slow down, don't be in a hurry!" As he spoke, he reached out and took the suitcase from Li Wanruo's hand.

Li Wanruo said with a smile on her face: "Are you happy?"

"It's cold outside, get in the car quickly!" Wang Zhong pulled the suitcase and walked to the trunk, while Li Wanruo skipped to the passenger side, skillfully opened the door and got in.

"How is the temperature? Is it too hot?" Wang Zhong has already been protected from the cold and heat, so he naturally does not need air conditioning. However, Li Wanruo is incomparable to Wang Zhong. Without air conditioning, his hands and feet would be frozen.

"Okay!" Li Wanruo nodded obediently, not forgetting to glance at Wang Zhong secretly.

"My cousin just replied to me and said that they have packed up and are about to go out."

"Let's go directly to the high-speed rail station and wait for them."

Half an hour later, the four of them successfully met at the high-speed rail station and boarded the high-speed train to Zhangjiajie. They arrived in Zhangjiajie in just half an hour.

When you get off the high-speed train, you can obviously feel that the weather is colder than at home, but even so, the high-speed rail station is also crowded with people.

Yuan Xiao, the big sponsor of the hotel ticket, had already booked it online in advance. The four of them left the high-speed rail station, called a taxi and headed straight to the hotel.

After putting on their hiking equipment, having dinner, and wearing tight clothes, the four of them went to the foot of Tianmen Mountain to catch a bus, halfway up the mountain and all the way up the mountain.

Only halfway through, Yuan Xiao and Li Qin gave up. The mountain road was difficult to navigate, and there was also snow blocking the road. They wore a lot of clothes and a lot of equipment, which undoubtedly added a lot of burden to the mountaineering.

Li Wanruo's situation is slightly better. After all, she is a young girl who has just graduated. She has not lost the exercise habits she developed in school. Her physical fitness is naturally better than Yuan Xiao and Li Qin, two people who sit in offices all year round.

In addition to being young, he seems to be in pretty good shape.

"We can't do it anymore, you go up first!" Yuan Xiao sat on the steps, shaking his head and waving his hands with a look of despair.

"Shall we go first?" Wang Zhong and Li Wanruo looked at each other.

Li Wanruo said: "Let's wait for you to come together!"

Li Qin said: "You go up first, and then just find a place to wait for us. We still have to rest for a while."

Li Wanruo looked at Wang Zhong next to him, nodded and said, "Okay then!"

"Brother Wang Chong, let's go up first."

"That's okay!" Wang Zhong said to Yuan Xiao and Li Qin: "Then you should be careful and keep in touch."

"Go away now!"

The two of them watched Wang Zhong and Li Zhong walking farther and farther on the mountain road. After looking at each other, they stood up and walked down the mountain in unison. They no longer went up the mountain, but down the mountain. They walked all the way to the parking place where the car stopped halfway up the mountain, and turned around.

Got in line for the cable car.

"Wouldn't it be unkind for us to do this?" Li Qin asked a little uneasily.

Yuan Xiao, however, looked calm: "If there is anything unkind, we are here to help them."

"If Xiao Ruo knew about it, I might not know how to thank you!"

Li Qin was not a person with ideas. Listening to Yuan Xiao's determined tone, she gradually settled down and stopped thinking about it.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! But on the other side, on the mountain road, after almost two-thirds of the way, Li Wanruo could no longer survive. His little face was turned pale with cold, and his feet were numb.

It's like it's filled with lead, it's hard to take even one step.

Sitting on the stone steps beside the mountain path, Li Wanruo looked down the mountain: "Cousin, why haven't they followed up yet?"

Before Wang Zhong could answer, Li Wanruo's cell phone buzzed. Li Wanruo took out her cell phone and looked at it. She immediately made a sad face and said angrily: "My cousin said that she and her brother-in-law took the cable car up and were waiting on the mountain.

us."

Wang Jian nodded: "This seems like something Yuan Xiao can do."

"Then what should we do?" Li Wanruo said with a sad face: "I really can't walk anymore."

Normally, Li Wan could climb up if he persisted, but it was snowing this winter and he was wearing thick clothes. Even though his backpack was on Wang Zhong's back, he still couldn't walk.

"How about we go down and take the cable car?" Li Wanruo suggested.

Wang Zhong didn't say anything, and walked straight to Li Wanruo, took off his backpack and carried it to his chest, squatted down in a horse stance, turned to Li Wanruo and said, "Come up!"

"Ah?" Li Wanruo was stunned by Wang Zhong's sudden movement.

Wang Zhongdao: "You can't walk anymore! Come up!"

"Brother Wang Zhong! Actually, I can hold on despite gritting my teeth!" As soon as Li Wanruo finished speaking, Wang Zhong turned around and crossed his hands to grab her wrists. With a strong pull, he pulled Li Wanruo onto his back.

Holding Li Wanruo's thighs with both hands, Wang Zhong said: "Hold on tight, I'm leaving!"

Li Wanruo, who was still confused, subconsciously hugged Wang Zhong's neck.
