Reinventing the Millennium

Two music players and one lunch.

On the night of the 27th of the twelfth lunar month, this number becomes three music players, one lunch and one dinner.

Immediately, Fang Zhuo drove Yu Hong to her home.

The Mercedes-Benz stalled and Yu Hong was suffocated.

"I've done so much after wandering around all day, hey, give me the last bargain you bought." Yu Hong reached for the last music player she bought on the back seat - MPman F10.

This is said to be the earliest MP3 player. It was a product produced two years ago and the price is only over 200 yuan.

"No, I have to take it back and study it. The shopping guide finally dug out the goods from the warehouse. I'll give you a good one later." Fang Zhuo quickly reached out to stop it.

Yu Hong retracted the passenger seat angrily and glared at her boss. Today didn't go as planned at all, and she didn't even ask about the registration machine.

Fang Zhuo looked at Yu Hong without any fear. He was actually quite satisfied today.

Boom, boom, boom.

There was a knock on the passenger window.

Yu Hong turned around, opened the door and got out of the car: "Mom, why are you here?"

Fang Zhuo was slightly startled and opened the car door and got out. He saw Mama Yu, who was in her early forties, looking at him.

"Oh, I came down to buy some things." Yu's mother replied to her daughter, but her eyes kept examining the young man who sent her back.

"Hello, aunt, I am Fang Zhuo, Yu Hong's colleague." Fang Zhuo's strange emotions flashed through him, and he greeted him openly, and even took the initiative to shake hands after hesitating for a moment.

Mother Yu smiled: "Are you Fang Zhuo? I've heard Dahong talking about you in the past two days. Thank you for taking care of her. She didn't cause any trouble in your company, right?"

"No, no, Yu Hong is very capable at work and helped me a lot." Fang Zhuo said kindly and apologized, "I came in a hurry. I'm really sorry. I have been working with her for the past two days."

He was a little embarrassed, because he had no intention of going up there as before, and he didn't buy any gifts. There were only three MP3 music players in the car. How about giving one to Yu's mother? Is it suitable?

Mother Yu nodded, took her daughter's hand, and sighed: "Since we were young, Dahong hasn't been with me much. She has a strong personality and sometimes speaks outright. I always feel that I owe her. Mr. Fang, if she If there is anything I can't do well, please take care of it, thank you."

Yu Hong felt heart-wrenching and uncomfortable. She said angrily: "Mom, why are you talking about this? Let's go, let's go home. Fang Zhuo still has something to do."

"Auntie, she has been doing a good job. The company relies on her to support half of the sky." Fang Zhuo felt goosebumps when he heard "you" from Yu's mother.

Mother Yu was pulled two steps away by her daughter, and she did not forget to say goodbye: "Dahong and I will go up first. If you have time, you can come and sit at home."

"Hey, hey, I'm sure, aunt, have a happy new year and a happy holiday." Fang Zhuo waved goodbye with a smile.

When the two figures walked into the community, he quickly got in the car and left the place quickly.

Mother Yu and Yu Hong walked in the community, both silent.

When they were almost downstairs, Mother Yu asked, "Did you two just kiss when you were sitting in the car?"

Yu Hong turned her head, with a look of disbelief on her face: "⊙▽⊙!"

"Isn't it like that on TV? Two people look at each other affectionately, slowly get closer, hug, and kiss." Mother Yu said rationally.

"Is that affectionate? I'm glaring. Mom, do you know what glaring is?" Yu Hong glared at her mother.

Mother Yu ignored her daughter's glare and continued to ask: "When you are not in Luzhou, when you go to Lin'an or other places for a business trip, should you rent one room or two rooms?"

Yu Hong was ashamed and annoyed: "I...what kind of house should I rent? We have a long-term rental house in Lin'an!"

Mother Yu was shocked and angry: "You two are already living together in Lin'an?"

"No, no, this is nothing!" Yu Hong forced herself to calm down, "That's the staff dormitory rented by our company. I was with a female colleague, and he was with the company's technical director."

"Really?" Mother Yu asked.

"Swear to God." Yu Hong raised her right hand.

Mother Yu was relieved now. She felt that it would not be possible so quickly. At most, it would just be a kiss.

"Fang Zhuo is quite good-looking." Mother Yu stood in the elevator thinking about what she had just seen.

"Mom, I don't understand. What does it have to do with you whether he looks good or not? What does it have to do with me?" Yu Hong felt helpless.

Mother Yu said, "I'll just say casually, why are you excited?"

"I'm not excited!!!" Yu Hong said excitedly.

Ding dong, the elevator has arrived.

The two entered the house. Yu Hong raised her eyes and saw her younger brother Yu Hai walking from the balcony to the living room.

"Sister, he's gone and you can't even see the taillights." Yu Hai said cheerfully.

Yu Hong sat on the sofa and ignored him.

Yu Hai could see that his sister was in a bad mood and sat on a stool far away from her without saying a word. Our journey is bounded by stars and seas. There is no need to stumble in front of her sister's temper.

Uncle Li Bintao had no worries and asked directly: "Sister, how are you? You are a talented person, right?"

"Well, he is very good-looking." Mother Yu commented steadily, "You can tell that he is a person who works hard. He is generous and not timid at all when he sees me. He speaks very appropriately. He probably shook hands with me out of habit. "

Yu Hong grabbed a handful of melon seeds helplessly: "Why are you so timid?"

Mother Yu glared: "What are you talking about? You even learned to use foul language."

Yu Hong said weakly: "I learned it from my boss."

Mother Yu was silent.

Li Bintao smiled and said: "Sister, think about it, how many things have to happen if you start such a big career at such a young age. Men, just swearing a few words is a way to vent your emotions, as long as you don't take action. Yuan and I Yuan is still quarreling."

Mother Yu nodded. That was the reason. The younger brother and sister-in-law only quarreled and never started to fight.

"Mom, uncle, Fang Zhuo and I are colleagues. It's really nothing more. We've known each other for less than a year." Yu Hong sighed, determined to correct the mistakes of her family and couldn't go on like this.

"Let's watch TV. Don't explain if it's nothing." Mother Yu laughed and reached for the remote control to change the channel.

Yu Hong felt like she was hitting cotton with a punch, so light and effortless that it didn't matter whether she explained or not.

The laughter and laughter of the TV program instantly rang out in the living room.

…

The twenty-eighth day of the twelfth lunar month.

The twenty-ninth day of the twelfth lunar month.

New Year's Eve.

Fang Zhuo didn't dare to ask Director Xiao Yu to go out anymore. He said, "It's mainly because it's a big holiday and it's not easy to make people work overtime. I can just run around more when I'm busy with machines and researching MP3s."

On the afternoon of the last day of the Lunar Year of the Dragon in 2000, Fang Zhuo hurried back to Ruijin Hospital from the factory and enjoyed another meal of leftovers.

"Are you still busy in the afternoon?" Mother Zhao Shumei felt really distressed.

"We're not going out, let's play cards." Fang Zhuo wiped his hands and said with a smile, "I have to give myself a half-day off to say goodbye to the old and welcome the new."

"Brother, when I get better, I'll help you!" Zhao Suqi volunteered.

"Okay, if you beat me at cards, I will hire you as a senior executive of Yike in the future. Then you will be President Zhao." Fang Zhuo took out a stack of brand-new banknotes that he had redeemed from his bag, "I will say goodbye to the old and welcome the new. Go to the bank to get it.”

"Come on, come on." Zhao Suqi called to his mother and aunt, "My brother is going to spread his wealth today."

Fireworks and firecrackers went off from time to time outside, and the little girl was killing everyone at the card table. On this last day of saying goodbye to the old year and welcoming the new year, she won all the money that President Fang took out.
