At the start, I tricked the school beauty, and ended up with twins?

Chapter 34: Chapter 33 Former Chairman of Shengda Network!



After having dinner with Dai Zhengguo in the hospital cafeteria, Gu Yu brought a portion back for each of his three roommates.

Everyone was busy all afternoon and had no time to eat.

"Come on, it's time to eat."

Gu Yu placed the takeout boxes on a small table and called Laoer and Laosan to eat.

The hospital food was very bland, the chili wasn't spicy, and the meat lacked flavor.

But it still made Boss Pu's mouth water uncontrollably.

He had lost so much blood and his body was weak now, desperately needing nutrition.

"Don't just eat yourselves! What about me?"

Watching Laoer pop a piece of pork belly into his mouth, Boss Pu licked his lips and forcefully swallowed his saliva.

"Don't worry, Boss! I didn't forget you!"

Gu Yu took a cylindrical porridge container from a plastic bag and sat next to Boss Pu's bed.

In Boss Pu's eager gaze, Gu Yu opened the lid.

Lean pork congee! And without century eggs!

"Ah… so this is just plain lean pork congee?"

Boss Pu looked a bit disappointed, being a proper Sichuan and Chongqing native who lived for spice!

This lean pork congee didn't have chili, not even a speck of chili oil!

How could he possibly eat it?

But Gu Yu had already spooned some congee to his mouth.

"Boss! Hard times call for tough measures! Professor Dai said you can't eat anything spicy or greasy for a week!"

Gu Yu spoke earnestly, knowing well how much Boss Pu liked strong flavors!

Usually, when bringing meals back to the dorm from the cafeteria, he had to mix in some Lao Gan Ma chili sauce!

This lean pork congee in Boss Pu's mouth was practically indistinguishable from plain water.

Pu Tongren looked at Gu Yu, also realizing this was the best they could do for now, and he sighed deeply before making do with what was available.

Yet the thought of having to keep a bland diet for a week made his scalp tingle.

"Boss! Have a lick!"

Yu Shutong dipped the tip of his chopsticks into some chili oil from the spicy meat and brought it to Boss Pu's mouth.

"Have a bit! Don't feel too bad!"

Qin Shan also picked up a tiny piece of chili, the size of a fingernail.

Pu Tongren looked at his three roommates with tears welling up in his eyes.

To have brothers like these! A man needs no more in life!

The cheerful atmosphere among the four was infectious, affecting the emotions of an old man next door.

"That's really nice! I had a group of good friends like you guys when I was younger, but they're all gone now."

The elderly man in the next bed smiled kindly.

Watching Gu Yu and the others, he, too, reminisced about his own past times.

From the old man's appearance, his completely white hair showed that he was definitely over sixty years old, his face wrinkled, but his complexion looked good.

Gu Yu originally thought that he was just an ordinary elderly man, only a bit more cheerful than some.

But as the old man spoke, a flash of gold suddenly gleamed from beneath the sleeve of his hospital uniform.

Gu Yu, with his Golden Eyes, had an especially keen sense for luxury goods!

With just a glance, he recognized what it was!

An antique watch!

"A Rolex 1803!"

Gu Yu blurted out without a second thought.

All three roommates turned their heads, wondering why he suddenly shouted about a Rolex?

Had he decided to buy a watch now that he had money?

But the next second, they realized they were wrong.

"Oh? You recognized this watch with just one look?"

The old man looked surprised, lifting his left wrist and letting the hospital sleeve slide down, revealing a gleaming gold watch for everyone to see.

"Yes! Manufactured in 1975, it's officially called the Rolex Day-Date 1803, featuring the famous 26-jewel 1556 movement, an antique that has spanned nearly half a century. Yet, this watch is still running, which speaks volumes about its robust performance!"

The detailed information came to mind, and Gu Yu smoothly relayed the watch's specifics.

The old man nodded repeatedly, while Boss Pu and the others gawked.

Good heavens! Had Laosi just transformed into a Treasure Appraiser Master in a second?

They were three or four meters away! He could identify a gold watch and specify its details from such a distance!

Could Laosi have some side hustle he was hiding from them?

Was the Treasure Appraiser Master, who was always shouting about treasures on Dou Ying, actually Laosi?

"You got everything right! Young man, your knowledge really surprises this old man!"

The old man couldn't stop smiling, the watch he wore was all because of memories and nostalgia.

No one recognized it usually, but today being recognized by a young person made him feel close and like he found a common topic.

"Come, come, come over and chat!"

The old man shifted his body, making space on the hospital bed.

Gu Yu hesitated for a moment, thought he had nothing else to do, and it might be good to chat to alleviate his boredom, so he sat down next to him.

"You really live up to being an elder! Wearing this watch, you were a big shot decades ago!"

He started by praising the old man, who was pleased with smiles, his eyes narrowing in joy.

"Not really a big shot, just ran a mid-sized internet company twenty years ago, and now I'm retired! I'm all sick now, it's all sequelae from staying up late back then."

The old man was straightforward, revealing his identity without any concealment.

"Internet company? In software!? Old man, are you hiring? All four of us are computer science students from Haidong University! Not to brag, but our skills are decent!"

As soon as he heard about the internet company, Laoer took interest and joined the conversation.

Perhaps the old man's company was still operational after his retirement?

A twenty-year-old internet company, by today, must have grown to a considerable size, right?

Of course, he was a bit confident in his group.

As computer science students from a 985 university, getting jobs in big companies was quite easy with just a bit of skill.

They might not have worked very hard usually, but they had participated in software competitions and won some regional and national awards!

That's why Laoer dared to half-jokingly recommend themselves.

The old man's face still had a smile, and it wasn't clear if he was serious or joking, but he actually nodded.

"Alright! Although the company is now run by my son, I can definitely arrange internships for a few Haidong students."

In Modu, Haidong University is a golden brand!

Even if you don't know anything, having that school name on your resume makes the interviewer take you seriously!

This is the power of a prestigious university!

"Haha, you must use 'Fetion,' right? Should we add each other as friends? You and my boss share the same hospital room too!"

Saying so, Laoer took out his phone and brought up the 'add friend' QR code.

The old man also fished out his quad-band business phone from under the pillow and added Yu Shutong as a Fetion friend.

Gu Yu secretly gave Laoer a thumbs-up; Laoer always knew how to work things!

This way, didn't it solve their senior year internship problem?

Laoer's social skills were indeed impressive!

"Damn! You were...you...your last name is Chen? And your profile picture is the Shengda Network Tower? What is your relationship with Chen Qiao?"

As soon as the friend request succeeded, Yu Shutong suddenly exclaimed with wide eyes.

"Shengda Network?"

Gu Yu furrowed his brows, why did that name sound so familiar?

On second thought, he suddenly remembered!

Isn't that the biggest game company in Modu right now!?

The pioneers of the online gaming industry who developed "Hot Legend!"

The boss's last name is Chen! Named Chen Qiao!

Glancing at the note on Laoer's phone, this old man's name is Chen Tian!

It was hard not to link the two!

"Hehe, Chen Qiao is my son,"

Watching the four young men's startled reactions, Chen Tian chuckled as if he was talking about something very ordinary.

"Chen...Chen Qiao the boss, is...is...your son?"

As Laosan spoke, his mouth trembled. Chen Qiao was already an unattainable boss, and now it turns out this old man was Chen Qiao's dad!

That is, the former chairman of Shengda Network!?

Such a big shot staying in a double room alone? That was way too low-key!

"You guys chatting like this is no fun, my son is my son, I am me, I'm not at Shengda anymore! Anyone else want to add me on Fetion? If not, I'm putting my phone away."

Old man Chen Tian pursed his lips, he just wanted to have a casual chat with these young folks to pass the time.

How can you chat with all this surprise?

"Add!"

Gu Yu, Boss Pu, and Laosan looked at each other and simultaneously took out their phones.
