Damn it, I'm surrounded by childhood sweethearts-Chapter 526: The Pomegranate Incident

Xu Qingfan was not impulsive about creating music software; part of the reason involved Xiao Ruawen, but more so, it was to lay the groundwork for the foreseeable short video blue ocean in a few years.

With memories from his previous life, he was very aware of the power of intelligent push algorithms and the shock that short videos could bring to Westerners still in the blog era.

If they could lift the long-standing media monopolies' blockade with their own efforts, Haowei Group would be tantamount to being coated with an unbeatable armor in the domestic market, smoothing the path for both his and Zhang Chunxue's careers, along with the careers of the Zhang and Li families.

By that time, he might also be able to disregard most people's opinions and claim the five girls for himself.

Thinking about the possible grand blueprint of the future, Xu Qingfan couldn't help but feel exhilarated.

"Brother Fan? Xiao Fan? Brother Fan, why are you ignoring everyone?"

Xiao Ruawen waving her hand in front of him brought Xu Qingfan back to reality. When he looked up, he realized that they had unknowingly left the campus.

"I was just thinking about something. What did you say? And since when can you call me Xiao Fan!" Xu Qingfan apologized with a smile and then knocked on the girl's head irritably.

"Ow!"

Xiao Ruawen covered her forehead, where she had just been hit. If it weren't for being moved that Brother Fan was starting a company for her, she would have definitely bitten him.

"Ruan Wen was asking if Brother Fan still has to go to school, and if you have time to start a company?" Wu Lingyu mediated at the crucial moment, looking at the two with a slight smile.

"Oh oh, you were talking about that." Xu Qingfan patted his head and all the girls turned their gaze towards him.

"I don't have to handle the specific recruitment. The engineers are directly poached from the original team of the company, and I just need to propose the functions and ideas of the software. The specific coordination is done by Sister Juan, and then she reports back to me on a regular basis."

In the new company, Xu Qingfan essentially held the roles of both CEO and COO. Manpower, finances, and technology were all handled by the original team from the company. The marketing department wasn't needed for now, and Lin Juan was his personal secretary, representing him as if he were there himself.

"Won't Brother Qing Fan be too tired, yah? High school is so demanding." Lin Wanning made a pitiful little dog expression.

Xia Xiaoxiao also felt her heart being squeezed, deciding firmly in her heart: [If that pig's grades fall behind, I'll just intentionally do poorly on tests, forever waiting for him!]

Seeing everyone's concerned expressions, Xu Qingfan was moved beyond words. He said lightly, "It's okay not to participate in competitions in high school. It's actually the same, just shifting the time I spent on competitions in elementary and middle school to starting a company."

Unconsciously, they had reached the new house's doorstep, and Wu Lingyu stepped forward to enter the password to unlock the door while pleading, "Then I won't join the competitions in high school either, Brother Fan, can you teach me about the company's business?"

"Me too, me too, I want to learn as well!" Xiao Ruawen was the second to respond.

"Then Wanning and Yiyi want to, too, to help share Brother Qing Fan's workload, yah!"

Xia Xiaoxiao looked up at him and said lightly, "Just command if there's anything you need help with."

Xu Qingfan pushed away the incoming Little White and beamed, "Great, I happen to need five pretty secretaries, it's your lucky day."

"Tsk!"

The five girls let out a long hiss, then couldn't help but burst into laughter.

Under the moon and by the flowers, Xu Qingfan felt his life was incredibly beautiful.

...

The following days were consistently bad weather. After five consecutive days of military training, everyone hadn't set foot on the field even once, not catching a bit of sunlight.

It wasn't until Friday afternoon, during the military training summary meeting with all the freshmen in the auditorium, that the sky was still drizzling.

"I believe, every drop of sweat you students have shed will not be in vain. The tanned skin has forged a resilient will, aiming high and striving for excellence, laying a solid foundation for the upcoming high school life.

Lastly, I wish that all students have a fulfilling and joyful next three years of high school life, and when you look back on this youthful time, you can confidently say, 'No regrets in my youth!'"

Principal Song Dongsheng concluded his speech; below the stage, thousands of students and teachers started applauding.

However, if one listened carefully, they could notice that mingled within the applause was a subdued snicker.

"Haha, what a dumbass, we didn't even get any sun, what 'tanned skin'?!"

"So funny, we didn't even sweat."

"Hahaha!"

Only after the meeting was finally dismissed, the students could freely burst into laughter.

Sixteen-year-old youths, full of vigor and vitality, Xu Qingfan took off his green military cap, attracting the gazes of many girls who were already looking around.

That evening, He Caiting wasn't the only one who had captured him in a video; being stuck at the school for military training was boring, and over the days, Xu Qingfan had become a spiritual pillar for many girls.

And He Caiting, worried that reckless actions might displease her crush, besides secretly giving him breakfast on Monday, didn't come over to talk to Xu Qingfan again.

He casually put his hat on Xiao Ruawen's head: "Come on, let's talk outside."

"Damn, Brother Chou Fan, you're making me wear a green hat!" The girl grumbled and took off the hat just as Xu Qingfan had already stepped ahead with the crowd.

"Brother Fan, are you guys going to take the bus back? I'll join you!" Xie Rui, having made just Wu Lingyu as a friend during the military training week, said this presumptuously.

"Sure, but we're stopping by home first, you don't mind waiting, right?" Xu Qingfan smiled. He felt quite fond of this rural girl who excelled in sports.
