My place is on fire

Chapter 360 Shen Xueli's Little Secret!
Cullinan was driving at extreme speed on the highway from Wanshan County to Shishi.

Shen Xueli was sitting in the co-pilot seat, secretly glanced at Luo Rongning who was driving from the corner of her eye from time to time.

"From the side, he looks even more handsome..."

Everyone has a little secret that only they know, and Shen Xueli is no exception.

Her secret is about Luo Rongning.

Shen Xueli still remembers that on the day of freshman registration, Luo Rongning helped her carry the quilt in the pig feed bag into the dormitory regardless of the disgusting eyes of others.

From that day on, Shen Xueli had an inexplicable feeling towards Luo Rongning.

She didn't know what it was like to like someone until she graduated from university.

Today, four or five years have passed, and there is no other man who can make Shen Xueli feel that way.

However, because his family situation is extremely bad, the family has a lot of debts, and there is a father who is paralyzed in bed.

In order not to drag Luo Yuning down, Shen Xueli didn't dare to confide her heart to him even if she liked him very much.

She often thought in her heart: At least wait until the family's foreign debts are paid off, the house is built, her younger brother gets married after graduating from college, and the family has no more burdens before going to confess to him.

If, at that time, he was still single like himself...

Today, under the care of Luo Rongning, the situation of Shen Xueli's family has greatly improved.

After Shen Xueli went to work in the scenic spot, not counting her salary, Luo Rongning alone had three work quotas for her family.

The lowest working index of Heilongshan Scenic Area is also starting from [-] to [-].

The three job indicators were sold for more than 30 yuan, nearly 40 yuan, and the more than [-] yuan of foreign debts owed to relatives and friends by the family over the years have been paid off.

Moreover, there are more than 20 left, so Shen Yanqiu thought about tearing down the old house and building a new one.

The foreign debt has been repaid, and the construction permit for the new house is about to come down. All that is left is for her younger brother to go to school and wait for him to get married. Shen Xueli feels that she can't wait any longer.

However, thinking of the growing gap between the two, Shen Xueli's fiery heart began to cool down again.

Luo Rongning is getting better and better, which is obvious to all.

In the business field, he turned a scenic spot that was about to close down into a popular scenic spot with a lot of people.

He also showed everyone amazing stunts one after another.

Knowing how to make clay figurines, he was favored by the successor of "Clay Figurine Zhang", who personally visited him as a teacher and accepted him as a fellow apprentice.

His painting skills were also favored by a highly respected old professor of Shishi Academy of Fine Arts, who asked him to teach at the school.

His self-taught Wing Chun can beat former national team professional taekwondo players.

The dumplings he made were also unanimously praised by everyone.

In this world, it seems that there is nothing he can't know.

Super good looking, super good temper, and versatile, such a man can only be worthy of a fairy daughter in the sky!

In front of Luo Yuning, Shen Xueli would often feel ashamed.

"By the way, Shirley, yesterday I discussed with the branch secretary of Luojiazhuang the feasibility of opening a homestay in Luojiazhuang. We feel that now is a good time."

"You are the marketing manager of our scenic spot. No one should know the operating conditions of the scenic spot better than you."

"There are more and more foreign tourists coming to our scenic spot, and the demand for accommodation is also getting stronger."

"However, the current homestay market in Luojiazhuang is still extremely primitive, and they all use the idle rooms in their own private houses for business, and the accommodation conditions are very ordinary."

"If we enter the site and invest in building some homestays with better hardware facilities and better privacy, they will surely be welcomed by tourists."

While driving, Luo Rongning chatted with Shen Xueli about what he and Luo Haifeng were planning to do recently.

"Huh? Oh, yes..."

After hearing Luo Yuning's words, Shen Xueli recovered from her trance, coughed twice in embarrassment, and brushed the hair around her ears a few times with her hands.

"Luojiazhuang is the closest to our scenic spot, and the commercial area at the entrance of the village is convenient for eating and shopping. If you open a homestay in the village, the prospects should be very promising."

Shen Xueli adjusted her mood and said: "Tourists from the Baiyun Mountain Scenic Area next door have supported more than 200 homestays in Baiyun Town. The passenger flow of our scenic spot and the passenger flow of Baiyun Mountain Scenic Area are infinitely shortening. In the future, one or two hundred homestays should be supported. It's still possible."

"Yes, we think so too." Luo Yuning coaxed, "Since your family wants to build a house, my opinion is that it is better for you to come to Luojiazhuang to build a house so that you can live in it and do business at the same time." In this way, it can also increase an income for the family."

"Go to Luojiazhuang to build a homestay?" Shen Xueli couldn't help but her eyes lit up when she heard Luo Rongning's words, but soon dimmed, "It will cost a lot of money to build a homestay, our funds..."

Without waiting for Shen Xueli to finish speaking, Luo Yuning interrupted: "You don't have to worry about the funds, if the funds are insufficient, I can lend you some first.

Don't worry about homestead and procedures, I'll tell the branch secretary Haifeng, and he will help you with it. "

"Yunning, you...why are you so kind to our family?" Shen Xueli was moved to tears when she heard Luo Rongning's words.

Luo Yuning smiled, and took it for granted, "Because we are friends."

Shen Xueli smiled while wiping her tears: "Friend... yes, we are friends. The greatest luck in my life is to know such a good friend as you."

"Please, don't be so sensational, okay?" Luo Yuning was joking with Shen Xueli, while handing her the tissue in the groove of the door armrest, "Wipe your tears quickly, and ask Zhang Qian and the others to see it later, and think what I did What about you?"

Shen Xueli reached out to take the tissue with a reddish face, and boldly said, "I want you to do something to me."

"Ahem..." Facing the old classmate who suddenly became extremely bold, Luo Rongning could only cough to cover up his embarrassment.

Even though Shen Xueli became more and more beautiful, he never had any other thoughts about Shen Xueli, and he still treated her as an old classmate and a good friend as always.

"It scares you...you don't have to be so nervous, I'm just... just making a little joke with you."

After Shen Xueli finished speaking completely against her will, she felt as if her heart was being pinched severely by someone, extremely uncomfortable and depressed.

The employees in the scenic area are all rumoring in private that Luo Rongning and Shui Miaomiao are a match made in heaven, and Shen Xueli has heard of these rumors of course.

"Yes, Vice President Shui is prettier than me and has a better figure than me. Director Liang and the others said that they were childhood sweethearts who grew up together..."

The image of Shui Miaomiao appeared in Shen Xueli's mind, and she suddenly felt like an ugly duckling.

Even though Luo Rongning was a straight steel man, he felt that the atmosphere in the car was a little strange, so he quickly changed the topic to the homestay.

"My little apprentice and I are also planning to open a homestay in the village together."

"Our preliminary plan is to build three floors, the first and second floors for business, and the third floor for self-occupation."

"You really don't need to think too much about money. If you want to do it, you can refer to the way I cooperate with Xiaodu."

Shen Xueli adjusted her mood and asked curiously, "What is the way you cooperate with Xiao Du?"

Luo Yuning said: "I will pay the money for investing in the homestay, and she will help me manage it. Before the return of the capital, we will share the profit with [-]% and [-]%, and I will give her [-]%.

"Ah? Wouldn't it be like this..." Shen Xueli was surprised when she heard the way Luo Rongning and Du Enya cooperated.

This kind of cooperation means that Luo Rongning bears all the risks, and Du Enya does not need to pay a single penny and can make a steady profit without losing money.

"From this cooperation method, you should also be able to see my confidence in the homestay industry, so why hesitate?"

Luo Rongning said with a smile: "This cooperation method is not available to everyone. It is only open to my relatives and friends. You can answer it after thinking about it. After passing this village, there will be no such store."

"I..." Shen Xueli was originally embarrassed to accept Luo Yuning's kindness.

But think about it another way, wouldn't it be possible to have more interactions with him through this partnership-run homestay?
Shen Xueli smiled and said, "You've already said so much, if I refuse again, wouldn't it be a bit disrespectful, then I have no choice but to show my disrespect."

Luo Rongning said: "Then it's settled. I'll talk to the branch secretary of Haifeng tomorrow and ask him to help you find a piece of land."

"Okay." Shen Xueli smiled and nodded.

After confirming the cooperation, the two chatted a lot about investing in building a homestay, until Cullinan heard about it in the parking lot of the destination, and the two ended the topic with unfinished business.

"As soon as I came here, I remembered the days when I worked as a part-time student in several stores nearby during college. Whenever I got paid, it was the happiest time for me."

After getting off the car, Shen Xueli looked at the various shops on both sides of the road, and couldn't help sighing.

"Happiness at that time was really simple. Okay, don't sigh, let's go there quickly, don't let the grandson wait in a hurry."

Luo Rongning raised his hand and glanced at the watch on his wrist. It was already 7:51 in the evening, and there were only 8 minutes left before the agreed 9 o'clock.

"Yeah, let's go." Shen Xueli looked at Luo Yuning with a sweet smile, and walked side by side to the restaurant he had made an appointment with.

As soon as Luo Rongning and Shen Xueli left, sharp-eyed passers-by noticed Cullinan's existence on the back.

"Damn! Cullinan!! It turned out to be Cullinan!!"

"Is there such a local tyrant in Shishi?"

"It's too low-key to drive such a luxury car to eat in such a small restaurant!"

"Could it be a certain senior from our school!"

Several passing students talked to Cullinan, their eyes full of envy.

Click, click, click!

After the discussion, several people tacitly took out their mobile phones, walked around Cullinan a few times, and took pictures from various angles.

"Help me take a photo together! I'll send it to Moments and pretend to be a beep!"

"I'm coming too, I'm coming too! Help me look handsome!"

While several students were taking photos around Cullinan, Luo Rongning and Shen Xueli came to the restaurant together.

"Yunning! Shirley, you are here, there is no traffic jam on the road."

Sun Liqun, who had been waiting at the door for a long time, saw Luo Rongning and hurriedly greeted him eagerly.

"Yunning, Xue... Xueli, you are here." Song Jinyao stepped forward to greet the two with an unnatural expression, the smile on her face was as stiff as if she rented it elsewhere.

Before coming to Shishi, Song Jinyao actually looked down on the "little gang" of Luo Yuning and Wu Mingshi in her heart.

This trip to Shishi refreshed her impression of this "little gang".

In college, Wu Mingshi, who was as silly as a second-beep, now earns [-] to [-] yuan a month and drives a Mercedes-Benz when he goes out.

Shen Xueli, who is either on a work-study program or on the way, also earns [-] to [-] yuan a month.

Luo Rongning, a small town with billions of dollars in handsomeness but no money and no background, is a problem writer, and now he has become a veritable big boss of the scenic spot.

This time, in Zhuoye Group's business, Luo Rongning helped Sun Liqun a lot, helping him win several million business.

Song Jinyao really felt Luo Rongning's energy in Shishi, and she no longer dared to belittle her.

When Sun Liqun was parting, he treated guests to dinner again, just to maintain the relationship with Luo Rongning.

"Grandson, Song Jinyao, we are not late."

Luo Rongning's attitude towards the two of them has not changed in the slightest, what it was like in school is still the same now.

Sun Liqun laughed and said, "It's not too late, it's still ten minutes away! We've just arrived."

"Hey! I didn't expect Mr. Luo to come so early today, we are the last ones!"

Just as Sun Liqun finished speaking, another voice rang out not far away. Wu Mingshi and Zhang Qian arrived with two bottles of wine in their hands.

Zhang Qian grinned and said: "Luo Zi, Xue Li, grandson, Song Jinyao, you guys don't go in at the door, are you deliberately showing me and Fatty, embarrassing us?"

Sun Liqun hurriedly smiled and said, "No, no, Zhang Qian, don't get me wrong, we just arrived, and we just met at the door, and you and Mingshi came after just a few words."

"Okay, okay, let's go in if you have something to say, don't block people's business by blocking their door." Luo Rongning said with a smile, and took the lead to enter the store.

Sun Liqun said it was just right, but in fact, it has been more than an hour since he arrived, and he has already reserved a private room and ordered dishes.

After entering the door, I talked to the waiter, and the waiter took everyone upstairs to the reserved room. They just sat down and didn't say a few words before they started serving food.

A group of waiters came in and out several times, and a large table was filled with all kinds of meat, vegetarian and vegetarian dishes. Luo Rongning roughly counted, at least thirty dishes.

Zhang Qian joked, "I'm talking about Squad Leader Sun, you've made a lot of money this time, right? Did you order all the dishes on the menu?"

"It's rare for everyone to get together once, so let's eat and drink well."

Sun Liqun said something with a smile, raised his glass and looked at Luo Rongning, and said sincerely:

"Yunning, let me toast you first, thank you for doing me a big favor this time."
