However, Yang Ming didn’t expect that the Uncle Ma from the Red Flag Middle School was actually a hidden master! Moreover, he had been hidden for so many years!
Only Yang Ming knew that this event had already persisted for almost eight years! These eight years was such a long time and yet Uncle Ma hadn’t revealed any trace of flaws.
However, not long after a few steps, Yang Ming found that his decision was a mistake. If I were to walk back home from here, wouldn’t it already be the next morning by the time I arrive?
Yang Ming had no other choice but to call Hou Zhenhan to pick him up.
At this time, Yang Ming could only trouble Hou Zhenhan. Zhang Bing must have already rested. It was already past two o’clock in the middle of the night.
Hou Zhenhan didn’t ask anything. He just said that he would come over immediately and hung up the phone.
About twenty minutes later, Yang Ming saw Hou Zhenyao’s broken Jetta approach him quickly. Yang Ming quickly stood on the side of the road and waved. Hou Zhenhan
snapped
and stopped beside Yang Ming.
Brother Yang, get in the car.
Hou Zhenhan opened the front passenger’s door.
Thanks for your hard work, Big Hou. I’m still bothering you even though it’s so late.
Yang Ming was a little embarrassed. My phone call had made Hou Zhenhan rushed over anxiously.
What’s the hard work? I haven’t slept yet. I was watching TV at home.
Hou Zhenhan said with a smile,
I just sent a guest back home with Bao Sanli.
How’s the company?
Yang Ming asked,
Do you need any funds?
For the time being, I don’t need it. With the current fame, whatever we do is basically sleight of hands. There is an abundance of entrepreneurs vying to collaborate with us. Bao Sanli is very grateful to the boss [1] for giving him a chance to take up the leadership position. He always thinks about meeting the boss. He wants to swear his loyalty to the boss personally.
Hou Zhenhan laughed.
Let’s discuss the matter again next time. It isn’t the right time now.
Yang Ming said,
I find your current direction in growth and development fantastic. I’m very satisfied. Don’t get involved with anything like street fighting and killing.
I understand Brother Yang’s intention, and I don’t like that kind of lifestyle.
Hou Zhenhan nodded.
I will stick to it. At this moment, the affairs in the company are basically under my command. Bao Sanli also doesn’t like to manage business very much. He just enjoys this feeling of superiority. However, he is still working hard in learning as well. He’s afraid that boss will say that he doesn’t work hard at some point and take him down!
Haha
, it’s great to work hard! He should learn more.
Yang Ming smiled and said,
Oh ya
, the name of the company Ming Yang, was it your idea?
Brother Yang… are you not happy with it?
Hou Zhenhan quickly asked,
This is the result of my discussions with Bao Sanli. At first, I did have the intention, but then Bao Sanli said that the name was good, Ming Yang Sihai [2]. It’s a resounding name…
Not really. Just do as you like.
Yang Ming said indifferently,
Just don’t exaggerate it. Luckily, my name is Yang Ming. If my name was your name, it will be bad!
Hou Zhenhan, Zhenhan Hou? What… it sounds like a monkey’s scientific name…
Hou Zhenhan smiled bitterly.
After he got in the car, the journey was a lot faster. Yang Ming quickly returned to his home. His parents had already slept. Yang Ming didn’t bother them as he entered his room.
…………
Zhou Jiajia had insomnia again. She would go out to eat with Yang Ming’s friend tomorrow. This was similar to the treatment of a girlfriend! Zhou Jiajia was very excited. She was afraid that when she went tomorrow, she would say something inappropriate and ruin the atmosphere. Therefore, Zhou Jiajia went online to Google and Baidu to look for things that should be paid attention when eating together with friends, in addition to some jokes to harmonize the atmosphere. She kept herself busy and slept very late…
Once she went on the bed, she still couldn’t sleep. She smirked when she thought about the things that would happen tomorrow. Until the middle of the night, Zhou Jiajia felt that she shouldn’t persist as such. She had to force herself to sleep, otherwise, there would be dark eye circles tomorrow, and she wouldn’t be beautiful…
But, is getting asleep something that could be done just by having the intention? If it happens just as I say, there won’t be an abundance of insomniacs in the world!
The more Zhou Jiajia wanted to fall asleep as soon as possible, the more difficult it would be for her to fall asleep. In desperation, she had to start counting numbers:
I like Yang Ming for one day; I like Yang Ming for two days; I like Yang Ming for three days… I like Yang Ming for nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine days…
…………
When Yang Ming woke up, it was already in the afternoon. He couldn’t do anything about it. After getting home last night, he took a shower and it was already four o’clock in the early morning.
Yang Ming went out of the room with sleepy eyes and saw his parents watching TV in the living room.
Dad, Mom, good morning.
What good morning? It’s already 1 p.m in the afternoon!
Yang Dahai said with a smile,
Where did you go yesterday? When did you come back?
After three o’clock. I still have to go out tonight…
Yang Ming smiled bitterly.
Still going out? You aren’t allowed to head out tonight! You already came back so late. Your sleep cycle is all upside down and your biological clock is in chaos. It isn’t good for the body!
Mother Yang said in opposition.
I can’t. I have made an appointment. Dad, I have dinner with Sun Kun tonight. You met him before. When we went and bought a computer together, we took a taxi…
Yang Ming said.
Oh
, I remember it!
Yang Dao nodded.
Then you should go. Don’t come back too late!
Mother Yang noticed that Yang Dahai had agreed. She stopped objecting any further. After a few sentences, she went to the kitchen to cook.
Your dad and I have already woken up late and we had breakfast at 10 o’clock. I just prepared lunch and you just woke up at the right time.
Right, Big Ming, your elder sister called you in the morning. I told her you were sleeping. She wanted you to call her back after waking up.
Yang Dahai suddenly thought of something and he pointed at the memo near the phone as he spoke.
Yang Li?
Yang Ming asked while frowning.
What Yang Li? She is your sister. You need to be polite as you speak!
Yang Dahai lectured Yang Ming,
You impudent kid.
Alright, dad, I know. Elder sister is an elder sister.
Yang Ming nodded.
Then, shouldn’t you call her back soon?
Yang Dahai noticed Yang Ming’s indifferent attitude as he sat on the sofa watching TV, so he urged his son.
Okay, I will call in a while.
Yang Ming said indifferently. As a matter of fact, he really didn’t want to have much contact with Yang Li, so he didn’t take it seriously.
Go and call now. What do you mean by doing it in a while? You have already woken up. What are you waiting for?
Yang Dahai said,
I need you to call now!
Alright, alright, I will call now!
Yang Ming couldn’t help but stand up. He came to the phone and looked up the caller ID, and then pressed the recall button.
The phone rang twice and it was connected. There was a voice from his uncle,
Hello, who are you looking for?
Uncle, I’m Yang Ming.
Yang Ming said,
I heard from my dad that elder sister gave me a call just now? I’m looking for her.
Oh
, yes, Li Li was just talking about you. I’m going to call her!
When uncle finished speaking, he opened the door and shouted,
Yang Li! Come over to the phone, Yang Ming called—!
After a while, Yang Li’s voice came over the phone,
Yang Ming?
Elder sister, why did you call me?
Since his dad was watching him on the side, Yang Ming had to speak politely.
Oh
? You have already woken up?
Yang Li couldn’t help but mock,
It’s already afternoon; you really can sleep!
I slept quite late last night.
Yang Ming smiled. Yang Li’s tone was somewhat sarcastic, but Yang Ming could hear from her tone that it was a kind of joke. It wasn’t with irony and disdain, so Yang Ming wasn’t angry.
Well, I wanted to ask you out for dinner tomorrow. Are you free?
Yang Li asked.
Tomorrow? Just two of us?
Yang Ming was somewhat inexplicable. Yang Li looked for me to go out and eat? This is something that has never happened before.
I also asked Sun Jie out. Are you coming?
Yang Li said.
Sun Jie?
Yang Ming was surprised, then he said,
Didn’t Sun Jie go back home already? Did she come back?
Hmph
!
Yang Li snorted,
You also know a lot! Let me say this Yang Ming, are you really interested in Sun Jie?
Elder sister, why do you have so many words today? I wanted to ask her for something for the last two days. Don’t think too much about it!
Yang Ming frowned.
Hehe
, really?
Yang Li giggled out of amazement.
Sun Jie will return to Song Jiang tomorrow. I want to welcome her!
Alright, what time will that be tomorrow?
Since Sun Jie was going, Yang Ming had no reason to refuse it. Coincidentally, he was looking for Sun Jie for important matters.
Tomorrow afternoon, I will drive to your house to pick you up.
Yang Li said.
Alright, then I will wait for your call.
Yang Ming nodded.
After Yang Ming hung up the phone, Yang Dahai asked,
Big Ming, why was your elder sister looking for you?
