The five people went to the clothing store in Beijing. The clothing clerk saw that Zhou Xiaotong was so young and had three and a half-year-old children with him, and he didn't know what to call her for a moment.
Lin Qiu felt much more at ease and pushed the three children forward: "These are my three younger brothers. I want to give them a set of clothes."
The waiter immediately realized that this might be a family of five siblings, and began to work for a few people.
Zhou Xiaotong had a good eye and dressed up the three little boys quite neatly. She thought to herself that if she and Lin Qiu had a child, she would dress them up beautifully.
After Lin Qiu and Zhou Xiaotong sent their children back to the hotel, they started chatting.
Zhou Xiaotong asked: "Now that the travel agency is booming, do you plan to expand it?" Most people should have this idea. If you start a business, make it bigger and stronger.
But Lin Qiu doesn't think so. He wants to start other larger financial industries.
The main reason for not developing travel agencies is that the current travel industry is very irregular, the national economy has not yet fully developed, and they do not have many customers. If they want to develop into a particularly large enterprise, it will take a long time for them to accumulate.
But he couldn't wait any longer. It was too early to taste the taste of money, and it was too early for him to wake up from the trough of life. All these made him full of desire for money and power, but Lin Qiu always felt that being ambitious was not a bad thing. Every hero in troubled times has his own aspirations and ambitions.
Lin Qiu wants to be the person who stands at the forefront of the times.
"I plan to develop the travel agency as a side business, as long as it can provide me with living expenses." Lin Qiu and Zhou Xiaotong shared their thoughts.
Zhou Xiaotong nodded, thinking that after all, she and Lin Qiu were both students now, and their main task was to develop their studies. If they devoted all their time to their careers, they would probably neglect their studies.
Lin Qiu's test scores were very bad during the midterm, and he had a lot of points deducted. If he hadn't turned the tide at the end of the semester, he might have really failed the exam.
Zhou Xiaotong said to Lin Qiu: "In the second half of the freshman year, the school will hold a lot of activities. You should make a lot of friends. The masquerade I wanted to participate in last semester, I also have the opportunity to participate in this semester."
It can be seen that Zhou Xiaotong is very interested in the masquerade. She was sad for a while because she did not go there last semester due to various considerations.
When Lin Qiu first came to school as a freshman, she was relatively ignorant and not very familiar with some school rules and social aspects. He is much better now, and he has become much more tactful in the small society of the university.
"Want to attend the masquerade? I want to go too." Lin Qiu suddenly became interested in this kind of social activity.
If he wants to create a bigger company, a bigger group, he needs a lot of talents to work for him. There is also a need to cooperate with other company groups. Then accumulating contacts becomes a top priority.
Zhou Xiaotong did not expect that Lin Qiu would also be interested in the masquerade. He usually looked meticulous, but he would actually like this kind of activity.
"If you want to go too, I'll help you get a ticket, and then we'll go together."
Lin Qiu nodded: "Okay, do you need to wear special costumes for the masquerade?"
Zhou Xiaotong thought for a while: "There don't seem to be so many requirements this time. It just says that you have to wear a mask and play some games. There doesn't seem to be any specific requirements for clothing. Of course, you can wear it if you want."
Lin Qiu thought for a while, and suddenly came up with a good suggestion: "Xiaotong, it's still early, let's go buy masks."
The two looked at each other and ran to the mall.
After the matters regarding the start of school were dealt with, the masquerade was in full swing.
This dance was held in the playground of Tsinghua University, and the dusk lights were scattered on the green lawn. Everyone was covered with a hazy yellow gauze.
Everyone is wearing a mask, and everyone seems to feel a lot more comfortable. They don't have to worry about their usual personas. At this time, they can do things they usually don't want to do.
There are many men and women who usually like each other but never dare to confess their feelings, but today they will secretly send each other a love letter.
When Lin Qiu arrived at the scene, many people had already gathered at the prom. The weather had just warmed up, and many beauty-loving girls were showing their calves and wrists. They also took out their Bragi dresses that they were usually reluctant to wear.
The only thing that is the same is that everyone wears different masks on their faces. Some are made of paper, and some are even chipped from wood.
Lin Qiu saw a girl wearing a Sun Wukong mask from a distance. She was wearing a brand-new white shirt on her upper body and dark blue pencil pants on her lower body.
She was jumping up and down and talking to a fat girl next to her.
The mask Lin Qiu and Zhou Xiaotong bought yesterday belonged to Sun Wukong, and the girl's liveliness, height and body shape were similar to Zhou Xiaotong's.
He consciously walked over and patted the girl's left shoulder.
As soon as the girl turned back to the left, Lin Qiu stood to her right. Wait until the girl looks to the right again.
Lin Qiu smiled cheerfully at her: "Good evening, Sun Wukong."
The girl looked at Lin Qiu's face and blushed immediately. Lin Qiu's cheerful and frank look today was very attractive to girls, especially under such dim light.
The fat girl standing aside touched her shoulder: "Look, there is another person pursuing you."
Lin Qiu didn't hear these words. He dug for his collar. He took out a love letter folded into a paper crane and handed it to the girl.
"I originally wanted to give it to you yesterday, but I forgot. It shouldn't be too late to give it to you today." Zhou Xiaotong once complained to Lin Qiu that other girls had received love letters.
He wanted to write a love letter at that time, what's the difficulty? His girlfriend should have everything other people’s girlfriends have. So he wrote more than a dozen angrily during the holidays and chose the best one to send to Zhou Xiaotong.
It just so happened that the atmosphere was very good today, so he took it out.
The girl smiled and said nothing, but then she started reading the love letter. Maybe she was too shy, which prevented her from speaking calmly.
The love letter was romantic and sincere. Lin Qiu's handwriting was specially practiced and looked straight and upright. At this moment, Lin Qiu raised the girl's other hand.
"I have always owed you a formal confession. I originally thought that we had a tacit understanding. But I also thought that this sense of ceremony should not be missing. Today, I want to express my long-standing love to you."
"Be my girlfriend—" Lin Qiu's voice was so gentle that the girl's shoulders trembled. Fortunately, Lin Qiu's movements and sounds were not noticeable. Not many people gathered around. Otherwise the girl might run away on the spot.
The girl just wanted to agree.
"——Zhou Xiaotong." Lin Qiu finished.
The girl was stunned, and her best friend next to her was also stunned.
"ah?"
Lin Qiu was a little surprised: "Xiaotong, don't you want to agree to my confession?"
"I'm not Zhou Xiaotong." The girl's voice finally became clear.
