In the afternoon, the amusent park.
The ferris wheel in the park was slow and not very exciting, but Yang Shaoqing and Fang Huai had a thrilling ti. Before getting on, they rushed into the gondola, slamd the door shut, and erupted into wild laughter as they left Empress Dowager Zhang stranded on the ground.
The drop tower shot up and plumted down at a fast and thrilling speed, but Yang Shaoqing scread, while Fang Huai remained calm, even using the opportunity to check if there were any major safety risks with the amusent rides below.
It wasn’t him trying to look cool or composed—it was just that his physical condition was too strong. His body’s inner resilience was greater than the external forces, and he even felt that his body could withstand the 9G acceleration that would cause almost any pilot to experience blackout.
Or even more.
This acceleration of less than two Gs was child’s play for him. To make his heart race, he would need to be thrown out of the ride.
To Fang Huai’s surprise, seeing his composed expression only excited Yang Shaoqing more. She dragged him through all the scariest rides—the pirate ship, roller coasters, and pendulum swings—confronting her own fear in an attempt to scare him.
In reality, the most frightened person was Zhang i, who, suffering from various aches in her waist and legs, vowed never to go on any rides and remained stubbornly on the ground.
Fan Huai was steadfast throughout, even at the highest speeds he managed to free his hand to hold onto Yang Shaoqing’s arm, giving her a strong sense of security. When they landed from the last ride, she was swept by a wave of exhilarating comfort.
"Why aren’t you scared?"
Fang Huai was tempted to say, "There’s nothing to be scared of," but instead he replied:
"Because I have to protect you."
"Hehe." Yang Shaoqing was easy to please. She, who could easily be the belle of the university with her beauty and be pursued like a celebrity, didn’t like cliches but cherished such simple words of affection.
Perhaps it was because they were spoken by Fang Huai.
Then, quite satisfied, she whispered in Fang Huai’s ear:
"I love you."
Fang Huai’s ear tickled, and he pretended to dig in his ear as he said:
"What?"
"I love you," she repeated.
"Say what?"
Yang Shaoqing huffed and folded her arms, pressing her lips tight together.
Fang Huai flashed a sly fox’s smile and took out a dolphin pendant necklace from his pocket, gently placing it around Yang Shaoqing’s neck.
"You said you wanted to see the pain of the sea at the Red Sea, Egypt, and I can’t accompany you abroad right now. Wear this for now, and once you graduate, I’ll replace it with a ring."
Yang Shaoqing first stared at the necklace, then her face regained composure as she said:
"Is this a marriage proposal?"
Fang Huai paused for a mont, shook his head, and smiled: "No, it’s not formal enough. I’ll properly propose when I take you... to see the pain of the sea dostically."
"It could count," Yang Shaoqing said hastily, her cheeks flushing slightly before adding, "But you have to promise , after you retire, you’ll travel the world with !"
Fang Huai hesitated, knowing that Yang Shaoqing didn’t want to leave even a trace of doubt in their relationship, so he smiled and wrapped his arms around her, shouting to Zhang i in the distance:
"Mom, did you hear that? Yang Shaoqing is your daughter-in-law!"
Under the sunlight, there were two shadows; one was mine, and the other was also mine.
...
Monday.
After saying goodbye to his mom and the reluctant Yang Shaoqing, he was greeted by Commander Ma.
The recruitnt fair hadn’t started right away. Nearly two hundred ex-soldiers who ca to apply were neatly lined up in the courtyard of the First Squadron next to the Special Duty Squad agency, observing the establishnt ceremony of the "Guiyang Contract Firefighter Security Fund."
Deputy General Manager Ma from Huali Electric was present, holding a plaque that read "Three Million Yuan" in his hands, cordially shaking hands with Chief of Staff Zhou from the Fire Brigade and Instructor He from the Big Team.
After Chief of Staff Zhou’s impassioned speech, he added:
"On behalf of the Guiyang Firefighting Detachnt, I would like to thank Huali Electric for their significant contribution to the developnt of our fire brigade!"
Commander Ma nodded modestly, glanced at the curious corporate executives below, especially at the decision-maker behind the scenes: Boss Little Fang.
Fang Huai also nodded with a smile.
This Commander Ma, having battled in the electrical industry for many years, had experience and vision. He had exchanged phone calls with him quite a few tis and was pivotal in appointing the Deputy General Manager. As long as work proceeds without errors and the company continues to develop according to his vision, this man could beco the face of Huai Power Group in the future.
This man wasn’t so forr business titan, and Fang Huai didn’t need one. He just wanted to smoothly ride the coming era’s tailwinds, investing in companies he favored. As long as there was sufficient execution, that’s all that mattered.
As long as the performance was good, that was enough to make a fortune.
However, the surna Ma made Fang Huai feel it was very lucky.
Noticing his young master’s attention, Commander Ma turned towards the caras and said:
"Three million yuan is not just a commitnt from Huaili Company; it’s a starting point. GM Fang of Huai Power pays high attention and lends strong support to the developnt of the firefighting career. In the future, we will continue to provide support, offering guarantees for those committing to firefighting and actively demonstrating our private enterprise’s social responsibility."
Applause erupted.
The soldiers applying for jobs and their family mbers in attendance were all excited.
That’s so real money!
Son, did you see that? They are really loaded!
If you want the job they offer, you work. If you don’t want the job, you can still get money!
Of course, the three million yuan plaque wasn’t cash.
Huaili Company didn’t have that much cash to put aside in the fund to grow interest; it was just a donation contract for three million. The first installnt was only five hundred thousand to ensure the establishnt of the fund; the rest would be payed out gradually over two years.
