Chapter 1088: The Night of the Millennium is Coming

readx;

The night shrouds Yangui Lake, scattered around the lake with sparse floor lamps emitting a faint light, the full moon is like jade, covering the light clouds, hanging in the deep and mysterious night sky, looking at the lake, there is a light mist flowing. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

The first cold snap after the winter came as scheduled, from time to time there was a cold wind blowing from the gap in the building, the night was already very deep, there were some young male and female lovers by the lake who were very cold-tolerant, Chen Jing held a small cardboard box, followed Zhang Ke, and passed through these young male and female lovers.

There is a pair of lovers walking in front, the boy wants to hold the girl's hand, the girl's hand is straight against the seam of the trousers, the boy's hand stretches out twice, the second hand touches the back of the girl's hand, the girl's frightened hand shrinks, the boy retreats first, and touches his nose to hide his embarrassment, almost thinking that the girl is refusing, looking a little frustrated, both people seem to know that the other party has a good impression of themselves, but they have not confirmed the relationship, everyone is cautious.

Chen Jing felt funny in his eyes, looked at Zhang Ke's side cheek with a serious face, raised his foot and gently kicked him, making him slow down, if he got too close, it would make the lovers even more overwhelmed.

"Look at how stupid this man is, on a cold day, the girl exposes her hands outside, isn't she just looking forward to touching him? This girl is really, equality between men and women has been called for many years, and he is timid, so he won't take the initiative to touch him? Zhang Ke whispered and laughed in Chen Jing's ear as soon as the emperor was not in a hurry, and the eunuch was in a hurry, "I'm so anxious for them, hold hands, what should I do, find a warm corner is stronger than blowing the wind by the lake, now I have to have minus three or four degrees!" ”

Chen Jing pursed her lips and smiled, shoulder-to-shoulder with Zhang Ke, and said, "Who has you experienced?" ”

Zhang Ke smiled, pressed his steps, and let the pair of cautious lovers in front of him walk in front. Chen Jing hugged the cardboard box next to Zhang Ke, and deliberately asked Zhang Ke's body to help him block the wind, watching how the young lovers would pierce the last layer of window paper, feeling funny, and feeling that the scene in front of them made people feel kind.

The relationship between her and Zhang Ke naturally became intimate after experiencing the kiss that could not be considered a success in the car, and they could understand each other's thoughts, and also express their thoughts clearly and unmistakably, there is really no need to carefully try to contact with seventeen or eighteen-year-old lovers, Chen Jing really can't imagine that she and Zhang Ke will have enough time to play this kind of young lover's game, maybe if you miss it, you will miss it forever.

In Jianye, it is not easy to avoid Zijia's field of vision, it is rare to have such a good opportunity to kick Zijia away, Zhang Ke said that he wanted to help clean up the mess, how could Chen Jing have a reason to refuse? At this time, the assistant was taken away, and she asked her to direct the property management staff to move the large items to other places for temporary storage, and she and Zhang Ke took the items they needed to the lakeside wooden house.

Walking to the lakeside wooden house to turn in, seeing that the boy did not try to go to the girl's hand again, Chen Jing was so anxious that she was about to beat her chest, and when she walked to the door of the lakeside wooden house, she laughed out loud and said: "This is what children look like when they fall in love!" ”

"What do you think?" Zhang Ke asked with a smile and told Chen Jing that the key was in his trouser pocket.

"It's a big loss." Chen Jing said.

"What's the big loss?" Zhang Ke looked at Chen Jing's sparkling eyes in the night and asked.

Chen Jing pursed her lips and smiled, didn't speak, stacked the small cardboard box on top of the big cardboard box that Zhang Ke was holding, covered his face, reached into his trouser pocket and took out the key, his fingers could touch Zhang Ke's thigh flesh through the thin cloth, warm, and said to him: "Your pants are so thin!" Isn't it cold? ”

"You touch my back," Zhang Ke pressed the cardboard box against the wall to save some effort, "You let me hold so many things, my vest is sweating, where can I feel cold?" ”

Chen Jingyan smiled and took the small cardboard box back to reduce Zhang Ke's weight.

Entering the gate, he had to put his fingerprints into the security system, Zhang Ke was just about to put down the big cardboard box, but he stacked the small cardboard box on top of Chen Jing, but he didn't expect Xu Si to have let Chen Jing's fingerprint data enter the security system, looking at Chen Jing sticking his middle finger on the fingerprint lock, and said with a smile: "The posture of opening the door with the middle finger is really cool, and I also want to enter the middle finger into the fingerprint database......"

Chen Jing smiled and stretched out her middle finger to Zhang Ke again, seeing that Zhang Ke opened his mouth to bite it, he hurriedly smiled and dodged, walked into the room first, and left the two cardboard boxes for Zhang Ke to deal with.

Upstairs there is a spare bedroom, just a futon or something to be newly laid, Zhang Ke helped Chen Jing hold the two cardboard boxes up, tired and sweaty, and sat there to watch Chen Jing clean up the room there.

"Ah......" Chen Jing remembered something, her delicate lips opened slightly, scratched the back of her head, and said, "I forgot to take something, I still have to go to the supermarket for a run, is there a car in the garage?" ”

"No," Zhang Ke shook his head, leaned over and looked at the cardboard box, "Don't you have all the daily necessities?" It's really not good, you can use Xu Si's, she will let the house live for you......"

"I don't know if Xu Si is here?" Chen Jing picked up her mobile phone and walked out to make a call, and after a while, she walked in and said, "Xu Si doesn't have it here, I still have to go to the supermarket, you don't have to accompany me, I'll go by myself." ”

"Yes, I know you forgot to take something," Zhang Ke grabbed Chen Jing and said with a smile, "You stay and clean up the room, and I'll help you go to the supermarket to buy ......"

"You know?" Chen Jing stared at Zhang Ke's eyes suspiciously.

"I have to look disappointed to believe I know what you're missing?" Zhang Ke pinched Chen Jing's tender cheeks and said with a smile, "Then I will show a very disappointed and lost look......

Chen Jing's face was flushed suddenly, she was embarrassed to look at Zhang Ke's eyes, and turned around to clean up the bed.

"Is Sophie's okay?" Zhang Ke walked out of the door and asked back.

"Die fast, open the ......," Chen Jing picked up a pillow and threw it towards the door.

There is a medium-sized supermarket in the south and north of Xuefu Lane, which provides great convenience to nearby residents and students.

Zhang Ke carried the shopping basket to pick out some snacks and drinks first, and then walked to the women's products shelf to help Chen Jing pick out feminine hygiene products, and some female students picked up things there, watching Zhang Ke walk over, and looked at Zhang Ke stupidly a few times, but they avoided it first.

Zhang Ke smiled, thinking that he might be a little embarrassed to change to himself in his previous life, there was really no psychological barrier at this time, seeing the group of female students smiling and avoiding with a look of envy, he also proudly stood there with the two brands and compared. At this time, it was just after the night self-study but there was no time to do it, and the students of Tokyo University and Normal University liked to hurry up and take a walk, as if they were letting off steam.

"Do you have a plan for how you will spend Millennium Eve? The dance club organizes to climb Yangui Mountain together, and you guys will also go to play together, right? ”

The sound of girls talking on the other side of the shelves was discussed, discussing how to spend the eve of New Year's Day in '99.

Zhang Ke thought that the millennium night is over as soon as it is the new millennium, during this time, in addition to the hype of the concept of "millennium bug", it is the hype of "millennium night", and Aida also specially launched the "millennium version" dual-screen folding mobile phone, and most people feel that this night is of great significance. If male and female lovers don't come out for a tryst this night, there is simply no reason, and many men and women will become lovers this night. In this way, the value of Millennium Night is quite considerable.

"It would be nice if anyone could hold a fireworks party in Yangui Lake......" Zhang Ke listened to the voice a little familiar, pulled out some of the items full of items on the shelves, and saw Chen Ning's fresh and moving face, she was holding two bottles of shampoo in her hand and comparing, and chatting casually with the dormitory classmates on the side, "Think about it, the bell just rang at twelve o'clock in the morning, and the brilliant fireworks bloomed from the center of the lake, and we sat on the top of Yangui Mountain, so that people would feel that the Millennium Night was really meaningful...... You say, will there really be any fool who would think of setting off fireworks on the water of Yangui Lake on the night of the millennium to courting girls? ”

"Why don't you sacrifice for everyone? We will now make an announcement in the general office: Whoever sets off fireworks at Yangui Lake on the night of the millennium can win the return of beauty, and there are still many people who are happy to be this fool when I see it! I think Yu Zhu is quite stupid! ”

"Cut, he has to have this brain, so that he can't even fool a girl! Besides, why do you want my aunt and grandmother to sacrifice to fulfill you! Chen Ning and the girls in their dormitory laughed and walked towards the cash register with the selected Lux shampoo, and she was still wearing the Lux shampoo.

Zhang Ke remembered that in the past life, he and Du Fei organized the members of the Go Club to drag their families to climb Yangui Lake to watch the sunrise on the night of the millennium, Yu Zhu and Chen Ning were there, everyone played cards and chatted on the top of Yangui Mountain on the night of the millennium, and saw the first sunrise of the new millennium, and only after going down the mountain did they know that it had been raining under the mountain, except for the people who climbed the mountain at night, the whole city missed the first sunrise of the new millennium.

Zhang Ke stood in front of the shelves and walked for a while, and a girl on the side laughed, Zhang Ke came back to his senses and found that he was standing in front of the shelves with feminine hygiene products and seemed to be really stupid.

Watching Chen Ning and the dormitory girls settle the bill and walk out of the supermarket gate, Zhang Ke carried the shopping basket to the cashier to check out, bought a bunch of things, settled the bill, and chased the shopping bag to the alley, Chen Ning and the girl in her dormitory had already walked away.

Zhang Ke stood there and watched them staggering towards the east gate, before turning around and walking across Donghua Avenue towards the lakeside wooden house.

Walking back to the lakeside wooden house, Chen Jing had already tidied up the room. The air conditioner in the house turned on, she took off her coat, only wore a tight cashmere sweater, pulled her long hair casually, looked gentle and beautiful, watching Zhang Ke walk up the stairs with a shopping bag, she handed over and took the shopping bag, and her youthful and charming face was full of charming charm.

Seeing Chen Jingting standing there gracefully and gracefully, expecting himself to come upstairs, the confusion mixed with the emotion of loss in Zhang Ke's heart stopped continuing to be confused, and there was that familiar sense of peace of mind.

Handing the shopping bag to Chen Jing to carry, Zhang Ke grabbed Chen Jing's soft waist with his hand, hugged her in his arms and hugged her hard, and whispered in her ear: "It's good to have you with you on such a night!" ”

Feeling Zhang Ke's hand supporting his soft waist strongly, Chen Jing didn't dare to look at Zhang Ke's eyes, even if he wanted to handle the relationship between the two calmly and generously like a mature man and woman, he still had the timidity of a girl, and he felt so good in his arms.

Standing at the top of the stairs and hugging for a while, Zhang Ke let go of Chen Jing, handed her the things she needed in the shopping bag, and said, "You go take a shower first, I'll take the red wine to the attic first, this house, I like the attic the most......"

"I'm ...... too," Chen Jing said with a smile, the attic on the third floor can enjoy Yangui Lake at night, and the soft and smooth fluffy blanket is spread on the floor, and it feels best to sit and drink red wine and chat with your lover.

Chen Jing came out of the shower, changed into a pair of light-colored trousers, tight-fitted, showing her slender legs to the fullest, changed her upper body into a smoke gray wide-sleeved cashmere sweater, covering her upturned and tight buttocks, wearing fluffy slippers barefoot, and the trouser legs were rolled up, revealing a small white and slender little foot, looking at Zhang Ke sitting on the floor talking to someone on the phone, she was just about to slow down and retreat, Zhang Ke pointed to the wine glass filled with red wine on the low table, and motioned for her to sit down.

Chen Jing took the wine glass in her hand, sat quietly beside Zhang Ke, listened to him and his mother messing around on the phone, the night was very quiet, she could clearly hear Zhang Ke and his mother's voice from the mobile phone, the two of them tore for a long time for how many clothes to ask for in Jianye at night because of the cold wave, but they couldn't imagine him talking to his mother like this. It's true to think about it, everyone usually habitually forgets that Zhang Ke is just a twenty-one-year-old young man.

Ah, he is only twenty-one years old, he is five or six years older than him, Chen Jing is really shocked when he thinks about it, it seems that he has always realized that he is more mature than himself, even if the relationship is not clear, he thinks of who to rely on, he also knows that this guy can be relied on, seeing Zhang Ke looking over suspiciously, Chen Jing shyly covered his face with his hands.

"What's wrong?" Zhang Ke saw Chen Jing covering his face with his hands and burying it between his knees, covering the microphone to prevent his mother from hearing it, and asked Chen Jing.

"It's nothing, suddenly realize that you still have a little young grass!" Chen Jing buried her face in her knees and said with a smile, still embarrassed to raise her head to look at Zhang Ke.

Zhang Ke hung up the phone after talking to his mother on the phone again, and when he saw that the wine in Chen Jing's hand was about to spill out, he helped her straighten the wine glass, and asked her with a smile: "Do you think you have taken a big advantage?" ”

"The devil can take advantage of you." Chen Jing said with a smile, raising her face to look at Zhang Ke, her beautiful face was crimson and charming.

The villa was cleaned up after three days, and Chen Jing had no excuse to continue to live in the lakeside wooden house, and Xie Zijia was thick-skinned, so he would clean up the mess as if it hadn't happened, and he had to move over to live with Chen Jing, and Chen Jing could only move back to Yanyuan.

Just two days before the New Year's Day of the new millennium, as if to pay tribute to the new millennium, the ministers of foreign trade and economic cooperation and the US Trade Representative signed a Sino-US bilateral agreement in Beijing on behalf of the two governments after the last round of talks of six days and six nights by the negotiating group, marking the most crucial step in China's accession to the WTO.

Since the news of the signing of the bilateral agreement was announced at dusk, which coincided with the window time for trading in the world's major securities markets, although it was known that this event was exciting and significant, it was not possible to get real-time feedback from the capital market for the time being.

Chen Jing returned to Yanyuan Villa, and Xie Zijia couldn't get out, Zhang Ke asked Xu Si to come to Jianye to accompany him at the night of the millennium, and he lived in a lakeside wooden house for the past few days. After nightfall, he finished the matter at hand, and after talking to Tang Jing on the phone, he sat in the attic and read a book for a while. The public holiday of the University of Hong Kong should be counted from New Year's Day, and Tang Jing still has classes to attend on the night of the millennium, so she can't rush back to Jianye. Although Aida and Sheng Xin are following the hype of this festival concept, Zhang Ke still feels that it is really a headache to make these seemingly meaningful festivals in a year.

I was a little sleepy and went downstairs alone to sleep, sleeping so soundly, but I woke up the phone ringtone.

Zhang Ke opened his eyes and saw that the screen of the mobile phone in the dark room emitted a soft glow, it was very depressing to make an alarm from his sleep, he sat on the edge of the bed and wanted to take a breath before answering the phone, at this time the other mobile phone left in the living room outside also rang, Zhang Ke was still thinking about what would happen, the landline thought about it again, Zhang Ke patted his head, I don't know what happened to the frown, only a few people will call in at this time.

Zhang Ke first picked up the landline phone at the bedside, and Fu Jun's voice came out from inside: "Mr. Cheng wants me to contact you urgently, but he can't call your mobile phone......"

Zhang Ke looked at the mobile phone screen, which showed that it was the American area code, and said to Fu Jun: "I know, I'll call him back later, both mobile phones have calls coming in, they really can't hold their breath at all......"

Zhang Ke stood up and pressed the call button, and before he could put his mobile phone to his ear, he heard Xiao Jincheng's excited and high-pitched tone coming out of the phone: "Stimulated by the news of the bilateral agreement between China and the United States, Quantum's stock price rushed to $46 at the opening......

"Hey," Zhang Ke squeaked, and said, "There's still a mobile phone ringing outside, I'll pick it up, and I'll talk to you about it later......" While talking to him, he opened the door, picked up the mobile phone on the coffee table in the living room, and saw that it was Ye Jianbin calling from Hong Kong, answered his phone, and asked: "What's the excitement in Hong Kong, do you have to wake me up at this time......

"Quantum Shares Soar to $46 ......"

"Yes, just dreaming, wake up your phone, Lao Xiao called me and said this, Cheng Hanzhang was also anxious to find me, I guess I also said this, then I put two mobile phones one to the left ear and one to the right ear, you two at the same time!" Zhang Ke sat back in the quilt and talked to Ye Jianbin .

"You're not excited at all when you hear this?" Ye Jianbin scolded with a smile on the other end of the phone, "Bai Xing called you in a hurry, yes, you can continue to sleep, I can't talk to someone else?" ”

"Why don't you talk to Lao Xiao first, and I'll call Cheng Hanzhang back first?" Zhang Ke asked with a smile.

A few days ago, ESS announced ahead of schedule that it would reduce its holdings of 17 million shares of Quantum Online after New Year's Day, which hit Quantum Online's stock price hard, plummeting from a high of $24 per share before the announcement to below $19 in two days. As European and American investors believe that the Internet economy will continue to prosper for a long time, coupled with the arrival of a US trade delegation in Beijing on the 24th for a new round of bilateral negotiations, investors are more optimistic about Chinese Internet companies, and the stock price of Quantum Online recovered to more than $20 yesterday and returned to $21 yesterday.

In the past six months, Quantum's stock price has risen about 143% from the opening price of the IPO, which is also a good performance, but it is not conspicuous, and if it is reduced at $20 per share, Kumho will take about $340 million from Quantum. Compared with the investment in Quantum Online over the years, the high yield is already jaw-dropping (Oak Park will also hold 7 million shares of Quantum Online for a long time), who would have thought that the news of the signing of a bilateral agreement between China and the United States would allow Quantum Online to skyrocket to $46 per share while digesting the unfavorable news of ESS's shareholding reduction, which means that the 17 million shares held by ESS can withdraw more than $400 million overnight.

Kumho's domestic mobile phone business profit is less than $500 million after deducting taxes and fees payable, Kumho can get more than $400 million almost overnight, Zhang Ke's reaction is so bland, Ye Jianbin is really depressed, he still received Xiao Jincheng's call and called Zhang Ke excitedly, and said with a wry smile: "Yes, I would ignore you if I knew it, the good news from Microsoft, you still ask Cheng Hanzhang, I will talk to Lao Xiao on the phone porridge to ......" did not wait for Zhang Ke to ask what news came from Microsoft, Ye Jianbin hung up the phone on the other end of the phone.

Fortunately, Xiao Jincheng, who was in the United States, did not hang up the phone, and Zhang Ke asked him: "What good news is coming from Microsoft, is it to accept our offer unconditionally?" ”

"It's conditional to accept our offer of $900 million," Xiao Jincheng said on the phone, "You don't have to call Han Zhang back, he's by my side, I've studied with Han Zhang, and we can accept the additional conditions they put forward, can we send you the fax now?" ”

"Forget it, let's talk about it tomorrow," Zhang Ke said, "It's in the middle of the night here in Jianye, and the indoor temperature is below zero, so I'm not interested in putting on my clothes and going downstairs to get a fax ......."

Xiao Jincheng had no choice but to hang up the phone first.

As early as when China and the United States formally signed the bilateral agreement, Microsoft realized that the stock price of Nasdaq's Chinese concept stock would surge, and after seeing the stock price of Quantum Online explode at the opening, Microsoft knew that there was no room to lower the price, and it was better to accept Kumho's offer of $900 million in exchange for other more favorable terms.
