Reborn: Billionaire in College

Chapter 273 First Public Appearance

"Strange, are you so free these days? You come to see me every day, which is not like you." Yan Yan was still in the company when she saw Chen Pingjiang walk into the office holding a bouquet of flowers.

Cao Jie from the same office curled her lips: "It's enough to show affection once in a while. You come here every day. You really have nothing to do."

Chen Pingjiang rolled his eyes: "Comrade Xiao Cao, if you don't speak, no one will think you are dumb. I know you are jealous nakedly. You are sick and need to be cured. The best way is to find a partner."

Cao Jie was so angry that her chest hurt a little. Every time Chen Pingjiang brought up this topic to attack her, she couldn't refute it.

Yan Yan smiled secretly, seeming to enjoy Cao Jie's humiliation.

She is not as good at talking as Cao Jie, but Cao Jie turns into a weakling in seconds when facing Chen Pingjiang.

"What are you saying? Why can't I come to see you? I was on a business trip some time ago and will leave again in a few days. This is the only time I can accompany you." After putting down the flowers, Chen Pingjiang picked up a financial statement and started reading it.

"That's right, there are already one million registered users." Chen Pingjiang nodded with a smile.

"What? It's been almost three months. We spent so much effort on promotion, but only got one million. It's not even as much as the sales of Orange Mobile in one hour."

"It would be better to make the brand positioning and content promotion more precise, and update the slogan. Xiaohongshu - your life guide, would it be better? Try to focus on trendy lifestyle, beauty and fashion, travel guides, food and fitness."

Yan Yan tilted her head and thought about it. Her neck, which had smooth lines like porcelain, was as elegant as a swan and glowed in the setting sun.

"I'll write it down and revise it at the meeting tomorrow."

Cao Jie on the other end suddenly began to sigh: "Comparison is the thief of anger. We have been struggling for so long and still can't defeat you with just a few words. You deserve to make money."

Chen Pingjiang winked at her and said, "Comrade Xiao Cao, think bigger. Don't dwell on money all the time. What's important is the process of starting a business. You've also grown in the process."

"Pfft, pfft, pfft!" Cao Jie shook her head like a drum. "I don't want to listen. In your words, this is PUAing me. Yanyan, don't listen either. I'm afraid you'll say that money buys happiness later."

"That's not the case. Money can definitely buy happiness, but your little money can't buy true happiness."

After arguing with Cao Jie in the office for half an hour, Chen Pingjiang finally left work holding Yan Yan's hand.

As soon as the two left, there was a burst of exclamations in the office area.

"I'm really envious of our boss now. She's so lucky. Mr. Chen came to pick her up from get off work for three consecutive days."

"The more handsome, wealthy and capable men are, the more affectionate they are. The ugly ones are scumbags."

"I'm willing to shorten my life by 10 years to find a guy who is only one-tenth as good as Mr. Chen."

"Haha, do you think I can do it? Although I don't have Mr. Chen's external conditions, I can lick him."

"..."

There is a reason why Chen Pingjiang has been so attentive these days, more or less because he feels a little guilty.

Being a scumbag does bring psychological burden, and I always feel a little sorry for Yan Yan.

Don't think that Chen Pingjiang is pretending to be innocent.

Although they are all scum, those scum who act arrogantly as if it is natural are beasts, and normal people will feel guilty.

Especially after doing business worth hundreds of millions with Ge Mengshi, this guilt was even greater.

This also means that if Ge Mengshi is pregnant, it will be Chen Pingjiang's first child, which is unfair to Yan Yan in some ways.

…………

When Li Yuhua arrived at Yan's house, her eyes lit up as soon as she opened the door and saw Chen Pingjiang.

She felt particularly honored when her future son-in-law came to visit her.

"Old Yan, stop busying yourself in the study and come out quickly. Pingjiang is here."

Not long after he finished speaking, Yan Liming walked out of the study with a smile on his face, folding his glasses as he walked.

"Huh, I feel my whole temperament is different now that I'm a leader. I have to call you secretary now."

Just last month, Yan Liming was promoted again. In just two or three years, he made a triple jump in the rocket class.

What’s even more interesting is that the organization had originally planned to transfer Yan Liming to an economically developed district. The secretaries of those districts are generally highly qualified and are expected to be members of the Standing Committee.

But Yan Liming was unwilling to move and would rather not get a higher salary than leave Wujiang District.

Finally, the organization considered opinions from all parties and agreed to Yan Liming's request.

Is Yan Liming stupid? Obviously not.

The shelf has just been set up and it’s harvest time soon. If you leave now, won’t it be like someone else picking the peaches?

What's more, although it seems like a step too little, as long as Chen Pingjiang is there, Wujiang District's economy will develop very fast. Wouldn't it be better for him to go directly to the city to take up a position then?
"Don't tease me. Secretary or not, we are all serving the people and serving Renren." Yan Liming said this, but in fact he had crow's feet from laughing so hard.

This is true to some extent. Although the development of Wujiang District is not the result of the efforts of Renren alone, no one can deny that the existence of Renren has greatly raised the economic data indicators of Wujiang District in all aspects.

Last year, Renren paid more than 15 billion RMB in taxes and created more than jobs directly or indirectly.

Real estate companies rushed to Wujiang District like crazy to acquire land and build buildings.

The land price here is cheap and customers have money. It’s hard to count how many multi-millionaires were created during the IPO last year.

In particular, as Renren's stock price continued to rise, more and more employees received options, and they themselves were high-income middle-class people, so their spending power was astonishing.

Real estate companies have come, commercial real estate has come, and a series of other supporting facilities such as hospitals and primary schools are also being planned.

That's the benefit of a big business.

The benefits go far beyond that.

Renren is an Internet company after all, but Orange Mobile is different. It is a serious manufacturing company and will have a greater impact on boosting the economy and employment.

At this point, a brief reference to the importance of Alibaba to Xiaoshan will give you a glimpse of the full picture.

Li Yuhua served the dishes to the table and said with a smile, "What has your mother been busy with recently? I have been busy at the newspaper these days and have not been able to visit her."

Chen Pingjiang raised his glass and clinked it with Yan Liming, saying, "She's busy reclaiming wasteland. She said so much land wasted, and directed Old Chen to plant bitter melon and eggplant in the backyard. It's mainly because she's too bored. She said if she doesn't do something, she'll get rusty."

"Well, that's pretty good. At least there's less pesticides used in our own crops."

As long as Empress Dowager Xu didn't feel bored, Chen Pingjiang would let her do what she wanted.

Chen Pingjiang feels that he will definitely not be bored after retirement. He can go online, play cards, travel around the world, and live a colorful life.

The same may not be true for Empress Dowager Xu. Square dancing had not yet become popular, she could not understand how to use a smartphone even if she was taught, and she could not recognize many words. It was indeed quite boring.

Maybe in the future, when TikTok comes out, it will be more friendly to the elderly.

After finishing a glass of Maozi, Chen Pingjiang smacked his lips. Yan Yan beside him obediently filled Chen Pingjiang's glass and automatically ignored Yan Liming opposite him, which made Yan Liming very jealous.

This little cotton jacket is worn out!

The next morning, Chen Pingjiang picked up Yan Yan and rushed to the airport.

As a distinguished McLaren P1 owner and a billionaire, the McLaren team invited Chen Pingjiang to watch the F1 Grand Prix in Shanghai.

If he was alone, Chen Pingjiang would not bother to come, mainly to accompany Yan Yan.

"If I remember correctly, this is the first time we travel alone." Chen Pingjiang smiled and shook Yan Yan's hand.

"Yeah!" Yan Yan looked at the F1 cars on the track and felt very novel.

This year's Shanghai F1 Grand Prix will be held on the 16th-18th.

The 16th is the practice session, the 17th is the sprint qualifying session, and the 18th is the race.

As one of the three major events along with the World Cup and the Olympic Games, F1 is a game for the rich.

After getting on the shuttle bus from the parking lot, Chen Pingjiang and his companion were taken directly to McLaren's P room and then to the paddock club on the second floor.

Under normal circumstances, a ticket here starts at 5, which is out of reach for most people.

A considerable number of those who can come in are well-known figures invited by major car dealers.

"Wow, who is this girl? She's so pretty, and she's so comfortable to look at."

"I've never seen it before. It looks like a star."

"The man next to her must be her boyfriend. He's so mysterious and wearing a mask."

Yan Yan's appearance immediately attracted the attention of everyone present.

There's nothing I can do, my looks are truly incredible.

The little internet celebrities and stars around them seem like passers-by in comparison.

Wang Cong was chatting with his companions while holding a cocktail. When he caught sight of Yan Yan out of the corner of his eye, his legs could hardly stand straight.

"Fuck, this girl is so hot."

"But it's a pity that I have a boyfriend."

"Haha, what are you afraid of? As long as you stand out and show your ability, there's nothing you can't dig into."

"..."

Seeing the envious or greedy eyes around her, Yan Yan leaned into Chen Pingjiang's arms feeling a little uncomfortable.

Wang Cong's gaze passed through the crowd and was fixed on Chen Pingjiang and Yan Yan.

"The back of this person looks familiar. Could it be someone I know?"

Just as he was wondering who it was, Wang Cong saw that person turn around and look at him meaningfully.

"Brother Chen!?" Wang Cong said this out of nowhere. There was no mistake in that look.

The people around him were confused by his surprised voice: "Brother Cong, which Brother Chen?"

Wang Cong ignored them and walked straight towards Chen Pingjiang.

"Brother Chen, I didn't expect to meet you here. It turns out you like racing too?" Facing Chen Pingjiang, Wang Cong seemed extremely enthusiastic, completely different from how he treated other people.

Chen Pingjiang nodded: "Just call me by my name. You are actually a few months older than me."

“Let’s put it this way!” Wang Cong waved his hands repeatedly: “Is this my sister-in-law?”

"Yeah." Chen Pingjiang pointed at Wang Cong and said to Yan Yan, "You must have heard of his name on the Internet, right?"

Yan Yan smiled and said, "Hello."

"Hello, sister-in-law, hello, sister-in-law. I have never seen a woman as beautiful as you in my life. Brother Chen is so lucky."

"Let's talk later. I'm going to go over there first."

The people watching around couldn't help but become more curious about Chen Pingjiang's true identity.

There are probably not many people in this world who can make Wang Cong, a top rich second-generation, call him Brother Chen in a proper manner.

Richer than Wang Cong's family? It's hard to find someone who fits this description.

Could it be an official... ?
"Mr. Wang, who is that?" someone who had met Wang Cong once asked curiously.

Wang Cong glanced at the man with disdain and cursed directly: "None of your business?"

After returning to his group of friends, Wang Cong rolled up his sleeves and said in a boastful tone, "Do you know who that is?"

"I don't know, Congge, who is that? Even you are so polite."

"Which star?"

"Bullshit, which celebrity can I call my brother? That's Chen Pingjiang!"

"Ah? Could it be Chen Pingjiang from Renren and Orange Mobile?"

“How many more do you think there are?” Wang Cong snorted, “My brothers.”

"Brother Cong is awesome!" The younger brother next to him gave a thumbs up: "The people who can deal with Chen Pingjiang are all from my father's generation. I guess the younger generation only has Brother Wang."

Wang Cong's voice was not small, and everyone around heard it, and they quickly looked towards Chen Pingjiang's back.

"Although I have seen him in photos countless times, I really can't recognize him in person."

"Of course. You'll see Chen Pingjiang in suits and ties online. I've never seen him dressed so casually."

"No wonder, only a beautiful girl like this can be worthy of our CEO Chen."

"While Chen Pingjiang is taking a photo with someone, why don't we go and get one too?"

"..."

Chen Pingjiang first found McLaren’s chairman Ron Dennis, said hello, and took a photo with him.

Then I was invited by the President of McLaren Asia Pacific and the event organizer to take more photos.

Ron Dennis was very excited and happy to be able to invite top billionaires like Chen Pingjiang to watch F1.

This is equivalent to a walking advertisement, and its promotional significance is extraordinary.

"Mr. Chen, can we take a photo together?"

"Mr. Chen, what's your girlfriend's name? She's so pretty."

"Mr. Chen, Mr. Chen, look at the camera."

After revealing his identity, Chen Pingjiang was immediately surrounded.

Some reporters at the scene were very excited. It was rare to catch Chen Pingjiang on such occasions, so they took photos frantically from different angles.

Even more excited than the reporters were some other stars and celebrities.

Lin Zhiying and others from Taiwan all came over to take photos.

Ordinary wealthy people would not be so eager to help, but Chen Pingjiang is not an ordinary wealthy person.

It is not news that celebrities and famous people come to watch F1. Later, all the cultural and sports stars showed up at the Shanghai Grand Prix, and many heavyweights gathered.

In comparison, internet celebrities have to stand aside and act as passers-by in such occasions.

Not long after, the news that Chen Pingjiang and his girlfriend watched the F1 Shanghai Grand Prix became the number one trending search on Weibo.

Don't feel weird.

Lei Jun can easily make 5-6 trending searches. In comparison, Chen Pingjiang is considered low-key.

More importantly, this is also the first time that Chen Pingjiang brought his girlfriend to a public event.

Although there have been rumors that Chen Pingjiang already has a girlfriend, few people have seen her true face, and people at Renren.com dare not spread the news, so Yan Yan has always been very mysterious.

Nowadays, any celebrity who falls in love can make the headlines of the day, let alone Chen Pingjiang.

The magnitude of the event was jaw-dropping.

"Okay, okay, I'm sure this couple is a good match. They are a talented couple and a beautiful girl."

"She smiled like an auntie."

"Brothers, ten minutes. I want all the information about this girl."

"The happiness of rich people is real happiness. Rich people can really do whatever they want."

"Tsk, it's not news. I'm from Dongjiang Sports University. They've been together since college. The girl is the campus beauty of my alma mater."

"..."

Chen Guangming, who had just recently learned how to use a smartphone, was reading the news on his phone with great interest when he saw two pop-up windows at the top of the screen.

"The true face of Chen Pingjiang's girlfriend has been revealed!"

"Chen Pingjiang and his girlfriend observed the F1 Grand Prix!"

The two pop-up windows are almost seamlessly connected.

Out of curiosity, Chen Guangming opened the Weibo post to check.

"Hey, Lao Xu, come quickly."

Chen Guangming shouted to Xu Fangjuan who was chatting with the nanny.

"What's wrong? You're so anxious."

"Look at the photos." Chen Guangming pointed at his phone and said, "In the news this afternoon, your son took Yan Yan to watch a car race. Are you relieved now?"

Hearing this, Xu Fangjuan snatched the phone and looked at it again and again. After a long while, she nodded with satisfaction: "This little bastard, I was afraid that he would be fickle, now I feel much more relieved."

"I've already told you, so don't let your imagination run wild."

Xu Fangjuan rolled her eyes. "How can I not imagine this? You are a man and I am a woman, and we have different feelings. The little bastard came back several times with different perfumes on his body, but Yan Yan doesn't wear perfume. I'm really afraid that this guy will mess around outside and let down the good girl. How can I explain to Lao Li then? Besides, I have asked him several times when he plans to get married. After all, the relationship between the two families is so good, and the two children have graduated, but he always says that there is no rush and he can wait."

"It's said that men become bad when they have money, and there's some truth to that. Do you think I'm the only one imagining things? Li Yuhua just didn't say it to me out of consideration for her. The two little ones have been sleeping together for a long time, but when I asked them, they said they were not in a hurry to get married. I'm afraid that their relationship will have problems and I'm afraid of being scolded."

To some extent, a mother is more sensitive than a wife, especially when living together.

As a mother, she knows exactly whether her son is fooling around outside.

Xu Fangjuan was really worried before, fearing that there would be problems in the relationship between Chen Pingjiang and Yan Yan, but now that Chen Pingjiang brought Yan Yan to public events, it was equivalent to an official announcement to the outside world.

This not only gave Xu Fangjuan, but also the Yan family, a reassurance.

Yan Yan, a woman of elegant temperament, was unexpectedly enthusiastic that night.

This is very different from her usual gentleness.

It’s not that Yan Yan doesn’t understand everything, but she keeps it in her heart.

She may not know what Chen Pingjiang did outside, but she roughly knew what would happen.

This is a woman’s sixth sense.

Especially in the past few days, Chen Pingjiang has been unusually attentive.

However, Chen Pingjiang's actions today undoubtedly reassured Yan Yan, indicating that her position in his mind had not changed.

That's enough...

This is closely related to Yan Yan's personality. She is naturally cold and rarely cares about other people's eyes. She rarely argues and doesn't like to ask questions, restrict or control others.

This doesn't mean that I don't love Chen Pingjiang, it's just my personality.

It is also because of this that Chen Pingjiang feels that Yan Yan is more suitable for marriage than Zhang Xinyue.

Yan Yan's abnormal behavior at night also made Chen Pingjiang thoughtful. He put his arms around the beautiful woman in his arms, feeling each other's heartbeats.

I believe that Ge Mengshi, Zhang Xinyue and others will understand the meaning behind this after seeing the news. (End of this chapter)
