Chapter 1259: Chapter 1258: Cao Ling Returns Again


When Ye Qiu returned to the boys’ dormitory, he didn’t see Luo Yang and the others. He guessed that they must have gone to the basketball court to play basketball.


Unexpectedly, when Ye Qiu called to ask, it turned out that these past two days Li Shen, Zhu Zhiming, and Luo Yang were actually on the nearby street, discussing how to start a company.


So now, they went out to see if there was a suitable storefront to open a company. If it was too far, it wouldn’t be suitable, after all, Luo Yang and the others had to attend classes, and Li Shen and Zhu Zhiming were supposed to occasionally check in at the classroom.


If they could open such a company near the school, it would be convenient, and the storefront fees shouldn’t be too high. At first, renting a storefront of a hundred square meters would be enough, just to set up computers, desks, and of course, they might need to hire a few programmers.


“Then you all carry on.”


Ye Qiu did not want to participate and headed towards the direction of the library.


Upon arriving there, he bumped into Li Qianqian and Han Xiaowan.


“Ye Qiu, you’re here to read too?”


Li Qianqian had never heard of Ye Qiu coming to the library to read; she only heard that he came here to teach Lin Wanqing to play the piano.


When she saw him, Li Qianqian thought of this.


It was heard that earlier in the morning, someone saw Ye Qiu being pulled away by a very beautiful young woman, and no one knew who that young woman was.


“Just here to read some books.”


Ye Qiu replied.


Li Qianqian pulled Ye Qiu up to the third-floor reading room. Once inside, it was eerily quiet, and after finding a few books and sitting down, she whispered to him, “I heard a beauty dragged you away this morning?”


“Are you talking about Miss Cao? Her uncle was sick, so she brought me over to treat him.”


Miss Cao?


Li Qianqian remembered a bit, but the military and local government were separate, two different systems. Li Zhiguo managed the city government, while Mr. Cao was from the military, originating from different systems.


However, Li Qianqian knew that Miss Cao was not just pretty; her status might also be quite extraordinary.


“What was the illness?”


“Tetanus, very serious.”


“Did you cure it?”


Li Qianqian asked.


“Is there any illness I can’t cure?”


Li Qianqian thought so too. If it weren’t for Ye Qiu, she might have lost her life a long time ago. Indeed, for a long time, she hadn’t heard of any disease that Ye Qiu couldn’t cure.


Li Qianqian opened the book in front of her, but she couldn’t get into it. Occasionally looking at Ye Qiu, she didn’t know what she was thinking.


When Ye Qiu flipped through the book, he immediately felt very familiar, as if he knew everything already, making it seem like there was nothing to learn.


After flipping through a few pages, Li Qianqian asked, “Not interested in these books?”


Li Qianqian intentionally brought Ye Qiu to the third-floor reading room where the shelves were lined with books about Western and Chinese medicine. Unexpectedly, Ye Qiu just gave them a look and lost interest.


“I’ve read them all, nothing interesting.”


Ye Qiu put the books back in place and searched for some newer ones that he might not know yet. But if it were those older books, he wouldn’t even need to look at what’s inside.


This made Li Qianqian surprised. Could it be that Ye Qiu really knows everything, can do everything?


Based on what she previously learned about Ye Qiu, he seemed just like an ordinary person.


Why did Ye Qiu change so much?


Of course, she hadn’t interacted with Ye Qiu before the car accident, so she wasn’t sure, only knowing a bit from Li Shen and the others.


As it approached lunchtime, when Ye Qiu was preparing to go to the cafeteria to eat, Li Qianqian and Han Xiaowan both followed him.


At the cafeteria, Ye Qiu asked, “What do you want to eat? Follow me.”


Li Qianqian and Han Xiaowan followed, picked some dishes and some porridge to eat. The three girls didn’t eat much. Once Ye Qiu got his food and returned to his seat, he saw Li Shen and the others coming over.


“Brother Qiu, we found a suitable place for the office.”


“Where?”


“Near the university town; the rent isn’t expensive, about three thousand a month.”


“You handle that yourselves. Go and set up a company’s account this afternoon, and I’ll transfer the money into it, then you can use this money to spend.”


Li Shen and Luo Yang did not expect Ye Qiu to really follow through on his words.


This was five million, not a small amount.


Ye Qiu didn’t mention supervising anything because he didn’t need to worry about those things. If Li Shen and Zhu Zhiming really embezzled this amount of money, their vision would be too short-sighted.


“What office?”


Li Qianqian asked.


“A company, Li Shen and the others want to start a game company, and I’m investing in it.”


A few days ago, during a hot pot meal, Ye Qiu hadn’t invited Li Qianqian and her friends over either time.


When Li Qianqian heard about this, she lost interest as she wasn’t concerned with such matters.


After finishing lunch, Ye Qiu went directly with Luo Yang to open a bank account at the university town. Around the university town, including Jin University, the Teachers College across from it, and several other technical universities were many bank branches.


Ye Qiu opened a new account at the Agricultural Bank branch, which would be the company’s account, and if they needed money, Li Shen and Zhu Zhiming could withdraw it.


Of course, they would have to spend money from now on, starting with the office rent, then computers, desks, and possibly engineers as well, as programming costs money.


“Brother Qiu, we don’t have a company name yet, what should we call it?”


Li Shen and the others hadn’t thought about this.


“You guys register it yourselves! You take the money; I’ll see how the initial phase goes. If it’s good, I’ll add more money. Of course, how well you do in the next four years is up to you.”


When Li Shen got the bank card, his hands were trembling.


This was five million, an amount his parents’ generation had probably never seen.


After Li Shen and the others left, Ye Qiu went back to class first.


There were two afternoon classes, the third and fourth periods, and after the classes, when Ye Qiu was about to head back to Peach Blossom Spring Villa, he saw Cao Ling, looking like a fairy in a dress, coming towards him.


Could someone be unwell again?


Cao Ling came with a whiff of fragrance and asked, “Just out of class?”


“Didn’t you already know?”


“I was waiting outside for an hour, saw your car wasn’t coming out, so I came in.”


“Is someone not feeling well?”


“Nonsense, it’s not that. My uncle just recovered and has been discharged and returned to the Military Region. Tonight, my uncle and auntie would like to invite you over for dinner as a thank you.”
