The autumn of the 10th year gradually passed while Li Dong was running around.
Li Dong, who had put down his career, was not as free as he was in the past few years.
Running back and forth from Pingchuan, Hong Kong, and Shanghai, sometimes Li Dong really envied the ancients.
He thought about how good it was in ancient times. He could build a big house, and many women could get together. There was no need to be so tired.
However, he could only envy them. If he really got these women together, Li Dong suspected that his good days would also come to an end.
Now he was a little tired, but he enjoyed it.
…
While Li Dong was running around for a living, Far away's business did not stop.
When it was time to enter the fourth quarter, the financial report for the first three quarters of Far away came out.
In the first three quarters of the 10th year, Far away created another brilliant achievement.
In the three quarters, the total revenue of Far Away Holdings reached as high as 1,080 billion yuan, which exceeded the revenue of the whole year last year.
Far away also began to build momentum for the next round of Double 11.
This time, compared with last year, Far Away's Double 11 was on a larger scale and wider range.
Because just after Li Dong left Far Away, Far Away Mall officially entered the international market. Far Away began to expand in Asia, Europe, and the United States.
Far Away Mall also entered some countries one after another, either through cooperation or mergers and acquisitions, and opened up the markets of some countries.
Far Away's business was mainly concentrated in China during the time of Li Dong.
Far Away's business was mainly concentrated in the international market during the time of Yuan Chengdao.
Far Away's business was repeatedly successful in the international market.
Far Away benefited from the reputation established by Li Dong. Compared with domestic enterprises, it still had some foundation in the international market.
Coupled with the retail business and e-commerce business, the industry barriers and policy restrictions of these businesses were much smaller. Far Away's development was not slow.
On the contrary, businesses such as Tencent and Weibo developed slower in the international market.
As for Wan Tong, Yuan Chengdao adhered to the philosophy of not involving the financial policies of various countries. If he could cooperate with local financial institutions, he would cooperate with local financial institutions. If he could cooperate with local well-known enterprises, he would cooperate with local well-known enterprises.
So far, in order to gain a foothold and expand into the market, Yuan Chengdao had set up financial subsidiaries in several countries.
If it were Li Dong, he wouldn't be able to do such a thing.
If he didn't have the final say in what was his, then he would rather not do it.
However, Yuan Chengdao had no such concerns. As long as it was beneficial to the expansion of his business Far away, he was willing to lower his head.
Far away was also the reason why Yuan Chengdao was able to open up the overseas market so quickly.
With the expansion of the international market, Yuan Chengdao represented Far Away in the international market. For a time, he was in the limelight.
…
While Far Away was expanding internationally, East Star Entertainment, a rising star in the business world, went public at the end of October.
East Star Entertainment, with a total share capital of 3 billion shares, was issued at 12 RMB. On the day of the listing, it closed at 18 RMB, up by 50%.
East Star became an entertainment empire with a market value of 54 billion RMB in one fell swoop.
After the listing, Hu Xiaorui, who still held 65% of East Star's shares, instantly entered the top ten of Hua Xia's rich list from the bottom of the rich list.
At this moment, Li Dong was still at the top of the list with a family wealth of 1,460 billion RMB.
Longhua Hsu Shengzhe. With the rise of Far Away's retail share prices, Vanke and Longhua's share prices also rose. They firmly occupied the second place with a wealth of 78 billion RMB.
As for Hu Xiaorui, because of the company owned by her parents and the shares of East Star, her family wealth had reached 42 billion RMB in the name of the Hu family. She was ranked fifth on Hua Xia's rich list.
At the same time, she was also the richest and the youngest one among Hua Xia's rich women.
For a time, Jiangbei once again became the focus of countless people.
Three of the top five on Hua Xia's rich list came from Jiangbei. These three people were all under 30 years old. The oldest, Hsu Shengzhe, had just entered the ranks of 30 this year.
…
While the outside world was talking about it, Hu Xiaorui had already returned to Jiangbei and held a grand celebration banquet.
The banquet ended.
As the main guest, Li Dong and Hu Xiaorui were the last to leave.
After walking out of the hotel, Hu Xiaorui, who had drunk a lot in the evening, was a little flushed and her eyes were a little blurred.
She didn't get in the car. Walking on the slightly dark street, Hu Xiaorui giggled and said, "A few years ago, I'm afraid that no one would have thought that I, Hu Xiaorui, would become the richest woman in Hua Xia. At that time … burp … at that time, some people were even calling me a fool behind my back. Of course, I didn't want to bother with those people. Do you still remember where we first met? "
Li Dong nodded lightly and said, "The time when I smashed the Qi Family Club."
"Oh, I still remember!" Hu Xiaorui smiled like a flower and said, "At that time, I loved to watch the fun. When I knew that you were going to smash the club, I was the first one to go and watch the fun. I didn't expect that not only could I watch the fun, but I could also do it myself. I didn't have to bear any responsibility. I was so happy. "
Li Dong smiled and didn't say anything. In retrospect, everyone was very childish and reckless at that time.
To deal with the Qi Family, they didn't necessarily have to smash the club. If it were the current Li Dong, he had other ways to deal with them.
However, the impulsiveness and hot-bloodedness of youth were also unforgettable memories.
If it weren't for his impulsiveness at that time, he wouldn't have met Hu Xiaorui.
Hu Xiaorui didn't wait for him to speak and said, "Do you remember the second time we met?"
"The time of the flood in Su 'an, Jiangbei held a charity banquet …"
Hu Xiaorui said with a smile, "I know you definitely haven't forgotten. I even donated 10,000 yuan that time. "
After saying that, Hu Xiaorui said again, "What about the third time?"
Li Dong tilted his head and looked at her. He chuckled and said, "Why? Do you want me to remember it again and again?"
Now that she had become a famous entrepreneur in Hua Xia, the Queen of Entertainment, at this moment, said in a sweet voice, "Tell me, do you remember it or not?"
Li Dong laughed and thought for a moment before saying, "I think it's the time you invited me to climb the mountain Far away, right? It's the first time I met Jia Wenhao. In the end, you stupid girl, you lied to me that you arrived a long time early. You, on the other hand, slept in until the sun was high in the sky. "
Hu Xiaorui suddenly smiled and said, "Who asked you to be so stupid! Who doesn't know that I, Hu Xiaorui, like to sleep in the most? You actually believed that I arrived at seven o 'clock. Then that time when we climbed the mountain, we even beat up that Yao Li together. Do you still remember? Later, we went to smash Yao Hong's door … "
Li Dong laughed and said, "At that time, I was also blinded by lard. I can't believe that I was really instigated by you to do this."
"Tsk, I didn't instigate you. You are a bad person to begin with!"
Hu Xiaorui giggled and said happily, "The first time I smashed a car was because of you. The first time I smashed someone's door was also because of you. Then, we even cheated that Old Huang together … "
Hu Xiaorui recounted the past one by one. In the end, she suddenly looked at Li Dong and said, "Do you know when I really fell in love with you?"
Li Dong stopped in his tracks. Although Hu Xiaorui was still smiling, her smile was not as heartless as before.
"Do you think that I, Hu Xiaorui, am really stupid? Just because you led me to do bad things, I really fell in love with you? In the beginning, we were at most friends. Because you are different from others. Many people know my grandfather's background and know the identity of my parents. When they see me, they will curry favor with me and please me. Some people are even afraid of me. You are a little different from them. Of course … "
Hu Xiaorui deliberately paused for a moment before continuing with a smile, "Of course, this is not enough. If you are not afraid of me and don't curry favor with me, it can only mean that you, Li Dong, did not ask for my help. It's not that easy to make me, Hu Xiaorui, fall in love with someone. I do like your character, but it's not to the point where I can't extricate myself from it. "
Li Dong couldn't help but laugh. "You were silly back then. Did you know how to talk about love?"
"Pfft, you're the silly one!"
Hu Xiaorui retorted. She revealed a charming smile and looked at Li Dong. "Actually, I didn't really have feelings for you when we were together.
It was when you went to the capital and beat up Sun Manman!
Really, that was the first time I felt that I wanted to fall in love with you. I should fall in love with you!
I know your situation at that time. It was actually very difficult.
Even if Shen Qian was supporting you, there were too many big shots in the capital.
Even that uncle of mine might not give face to Shen Qian's father, much less my grandfather.
But you didn't even think about it and gave Sun Manman a slap!
Just because she called me an idiot!
Really, I never thought that someone would do such a thing for me.
Even my father, although he dotes on me, if he really wants to slap Sun Manman because of a sentence, he definitely won't. At most, he will teach her a lesson in the future.
At that time, your foundation wasn't stable. Although we were on good terms, Sun Manman is my uncle's daughter and my grandfather's biological granddaughter.
If you had curried favor with Sun Manman, it would have been much more useful than currying favor with me.
Even if you didn't, you wouldn't have offended her.
If you hadn't slapped her, with Shen Qian around, she wouldn't have dared to provoke you.
But that's what you did!
You don't even know that when I heard the news, I was a little stunned.
You, Li Dong, actually dared to offend the Sun family just because someone called me an idiot. It's too inconceivable!
So from that moment on, I thought that this man should be my, Hu Xiaorui's, man! "
At that moment, Hu Xiaorui's eyes were bright. She looked at Li Dong without hiding it and said, "At that time, I knew Sister Yuhan and Shen Qian, but that's what I thought. You, Li Dong, should be my, Hu Xiaorui's, man!
In this life, how many men can a woman meet who treat her so well?
Such a man, if you meet him, you should hold on tightly.
Unfortunately, you're an idiot. Your eyes are always fixed on that woman, Shen Qian. You didn't even think about me.
Do you really think that I, Hu Xiaorui, am an idiot?
Casually meeting a man, I'll use money and effort to help him, and then pester him to get close to him?
All these years, there were too many men who wanted to marry me, including Chen Rui and Hsu Shengzhe. Do you think they didn't have such thoughts?
But I didn't fancy them. I only fancy you, Li Dong … "
Being stared at by Hu Xiaorui like this, Li Dong had a rare guilty conscience. He smiled bitterly and said, "So that's how it is. I was wondering why you're getting closer to me. You're so silly that I'm embarrassed to use you. That time, I hit her because I was impulsive. If it were me now, I might not do it … "
Hu Xiaorui said indifferently, "That's different. You were real then.
Because you weren't as experienced as you are now. If it were now, even if you hit me, I would have to consider whether you made the choice after weighing the gains and losses.
But at that time, you definitely didn't consider so much.
Because if you really thought it through, you wouldn't have hit me.
So, you hit her because you wanted to protect me.
And I wasn't even there. If I were there, I wouldn't have found it strange even if you hit her.
But I was in Pingchuan, and you were in the capital.
Because of that, I felt that you were good, and then I really fell in love with you. I love you until now, and I can't help myself. "
Li Dong felt a little uncomfortable under her fiery gaze. He coughed dryly and said, "It's all in the past …"
"Tsk, coward!"
Hu Xiaorui said with a look of disdain, "Even your wife doesn't care, what are you afraid of? I'm saying all this to make it clear to you that I didn't fall in love with you out of impulse. I didn't fall in love with you stupidly just because you smashed things with me a few times. I, Hu Xiaorui, am very picky when it comes to choosing men. Do you think anyone can catch my eye? Also, you said in the past that if I receive three bouquets, you'll marry me … "
"I didn't say that, did I?" Li Dong looked innocent. You were the one who said it. Why did it become me saying it later? You even took it seriously.
"That's not important!"
Hu Xiaorui said with a heroic look, "These are all minor details. Anyway, I've taken a fancy to you. I'm in love with you. You're the only one in my life! Whether you love me or not, I don't care. Now, Yuan Xue has given birth, and Sister Yuhan is also pregnant … "
"You even know that?" Li Dong was dumbfounded.
Hu Xiaorui said with a look of disdain, "You want to hide that little secret of yours from me? What don't I know?
Anyway, I don't care. You haven't severed ties with them, so why don't you want me!
My parents have already been settled by me. I'm willing. Shen Bingshan also pretended not to know. You're a man, yet you're so timid. You don't have the heroic spirit you had when you slapped Sun Manman.
I'm not fighting for anything. When our children are born, they'll have billions of assets to inherit. I won't snatch your Lele's things.
Tell me, where can I find such a good woman like me?
Li Dong, don't take it for granted. I'm warning you now. If you don't accept me, I'll rape you! "
"Pfft!"
Li Dong almost choked to death. He coughed for a while before stopping.
He glanced at Hu Xiaorui. Seeing that she did not avoid his gaze at all, Li Dong said helplessly, "I'm not a saint. If there's a woman with a good figure, good looks, a good family background, and loves you, who doesn't care about money or status and wants to follow you wholeheartedly, which man wouldn't be willing? I dare say that there's no man in the world who can say that he's unwilling. But Xiaorui, you're different from Yuhan and the rest … "
"What's the difference? Isn't it just that we've never had sex before? Just scram for once. Do you dare to say that you've never thought about it at all? "
Hu Xiaorui did not take it seriously. She pouted and said, "I knew that you're a hypocrite. You're probably thinking that if you have sex with me, won't you be holding me back?
What era are we in now? You're still so old-fashioned!
You have to think about it. If you don't have sex with me, I'll find another man in the future.
I'm almost an old lady. Although I still love you, I still have physical needs.
If you're not willing, I'll find someone else.
Just imagine, when another man is in bed with me … "
Before she could finish her sentence, Li Dong went forward and kissed her red lips. He said vaguely, "Don't you dare!"
Hu Xiaorui's body tensed up at first. Then, she gradually relaxed and responded passionately.
…
Not far away, Tan Yong yawned and mumbled, "A table of mahjong is just right. I wonder if the boss can handle four fathers-in-law and four mothers-in-law."
Even Tan Yong shuddered when he thought about this.
The old couple from the Yuan family was actually easy to talk to. The Hu family was a smiling tiger, while the Du family was a dragon crossing the river. Even the Qin family, Qin Hai was a decisive person who killed without saying a word.
However, all four families had only one daughter, and they doted on her like she was their baby. There were good and bad ones among them, but the parents only had one baby, so they kept a close eye on her.
Tan Yong shuddered when he thought about the day when these people gathered together and the boss would be surrounded. His job as a bodyguard was getting more and more dangerous.
Perhaps it was time for him to think about retirement?
