Reborn in 2000: I just want to love a few people properly.

After checking the nearest flight, which was at 5 PM, Xu Bo took out his phone and called the travel agency to book the flight. After that, Xu Bo stayed until after 1 PM before getting up to head to the classroom.

"Wang Yan, I have something to do tonight. Please help Gu Lin out at the shop."

"Okay, you go ahead and get busy." Wang Yan had discussed the store's development with Xu Bo and assumed that Xu Bo was going to attract investment.

"Okay, tell Qinglong and Haoqi too. I'm going to the counselor's office."

The two boys are still busy in the store, and no one knows what they're doing.

"Also, could you please keep an eye on my affairs? You've met those girls, so act accordingly!"

Xu Bo gave his final instructions, then turned and went up to the podium, where he found the female teacher wearing reading glasses.

"Teacher, I have an urgent matter to attend to in the counselor's office. I'll give you the leave slip later."

After seeing the teacher nod, Xu Bo immediately walked quickly toward the office building, taking out his phone as he went.

"Hello, counselor, this is Xu Bo. There's been a family emergency, and I need to catch a flight back to Harbin around 5 a.m.

The phone rang a few times before Xu Yuanping answered it.

"Okay, then come over quickly. I'll approve the note for you here. Is three days enough?"

"That's enough, I'm almost downstairs."

Xu Bo ran up to the second floor in one breath. Xu Yuanping stood at the office door with a note in his hand and gave Xu Bo his instructions the first thing he saw.

"be safe."

Nodding, Xu Bo gave Xu Yuanping a grateful look, then rushed down the stairs and back to his dormitory. After quickly grabbing his toiletries, charger, and ID, Xu Bo left the leave slip in his room.

When he arrived at the gate, Xu Bo hailed a taxi.

"Driver, to the airport."

Xu Bo tossed out a hundred-yuan bill and then took out his phone to call Gu Lin.

"Senior, I have an urgent matter to attend to when I go back to my hometown. Don't tell anyone. Just say I'm going out to discuss some business."

As soon as the call connected, Xu Bo got straight to the point, giving Gu Lin no time to react.

"Have my three roommates help me with things at the shop. Also, please cover for my girlfriends and make sure they don't cause any trouble at the hot pot restaurant."

Gu Lin responded with "uh-huh," and quickly understood Xu Bo's meaning. Before Xu Bo could hang up, she shouted loudly.

"You brat, you're just washing your hands of the business now! I'm selling this whole shop tomorrow!"

"Beep beep beep!"

The call ended, Gu Lin glanced at her phone, then looked up at the bustling scene in the store, and sighed inwardly.

"This is the first time I've seen you so nervous..."

"We're going back to class, senior." Du Qinglong, rubbing his bald head, walked out the door with Yu Haoqi, their arms around each other's shoulders.

In the taxi, Xu Bo's phone kept ringing; the third call was to Song Leisong.

"Hey, Songzi, my flight is at around 5 PM, and I should arrive in Harbin around 8 PM. Remember to pick me up. Just tell Wang Jun, and don't tell anyone else."

"Okay, I got it. I've already sent my underlings to keep watch at the First Affiliated Hospital of Medical University. They'll report back immediately if anything happens," Song Leisong said while eating instant noodles in the internet cafe.

After hanging up the phone, Xu Bo's mind began to race. He had no idea that Luo Ma was so seriously ill. He was very worried about the girl who always followed him around. Next year was an important exam in her life, and Xu Bo felt it was necessary to go back.

The car quickly arrived at the airport entrance. Xu Bo first went to the travel agency to pick up the booked ticket, paid the full amount, and then passed through security smoothly.

It takes two days and two nights to get from Harbin, but this time it only takes less than three hours to get back. The development of the times is really fast.

After waiting in the departure hall for a while, it was time to board. Xu Bo bought a bottle of water and a loaf of bread at the convenience store. He hadn't eaten lunch and was a little hungry.

After boarding the plane, Xu Bo fastened his seatbelt, curled up in his seat, asked the flight attendant for a blanket, and fell asleep without even noticing the plane taxiing and taking off.

When I opened my eyes again, the flight attendant was serving meals. Nothing tasted good, but I managed to eat a few bites before falling asleep again.

Xu Bo was awakened by a sudden jolt.

"Dear passengers, we are about to land in Harbin. Please make sure your seatbelts are fastened before landing..."

He groggily opened his eyes and glanced out the window. It was already dark outside, and clouds were piled up over the ice city. He had no idea what kind of weather it was.

The strong impact of landing signaled that the plane had landed successfully and safely. After checking his seat with his backpack, Xu Bo got up and lined up to walk out of the plane.

Since he had no luggage, Xu Bo walked very fast and saw Song Leisong's figure in the distance when he reached the exit.

"Songzi!" Xu Bo shouted, quickening his pace. After not seeing his partner for the first time for many days, Xu Bo really missed him.

"Let's go quickly, Brother Wang is outside, and illegal parking is not allowed outside."

Hearing this, Xu Bo felt a sense of unease.

Stepping outside, the air always has a peculiar smell. Taking a deep breath, Xu Bo saw a takin not far away, with Wang Jun leaning against it, smoking a cigarette with a smile on his face.

Upon seeing Xu Bo approach, he immediately stepped forward and handed him one.

Before he could even finish speaking, Song Leisong said, "Uncle Wang..."

"Brother Wang, get in the car quickly, we're going to the First Affiliated Hospital of Medical Sciences."

Xu Bo finally understood why he felt awkward: the way he addressed Song Leisong by their different titles was out of sync.

So he immediately said, "Thank you, Brother Wang, for coming to pick me up so late at night."

"Hey, why are you saying all this? Let's get in the car, it's comfortable inside."

After getting in the car, they still had to drive on the airport expressway for a while. Seeing Xu Bo's worried look, Wang Jun didn't say what was on his mind.

Since taking Song Leisong's advice, Wang Jun's internet cafe business has been getting better and better. He has sponsored several competitions, and Zhuo Juekai's reputation has spread far and wide.

Nowadays, when young people in Harbin say they want to go online to play games, their first choice is Zhuoyue Internet Cafe.

This suggestion was certainly not something that a half-baked person like Song Leisong came up with; the expert behind it was Xu Bo. So he wanted to consult Xu Bo to see if he could take advantage of the situation to expand a few stores.

But seeing Xu Bo like this, he could only keep some things to himself for now.

"Brother Wang, don't touch the money yet, don't expand blindly." Xu Bo said, comfortably nestled in the back seat after glancing at the rearview mirror.

"Open the window a crack to let in some fresh air," Xu Bo said, lighting a cigarette.

"Just keep expanding your reputation like this. In another two years, it will be difficult to do business in the real economy."

Although Wang Jun kept it to himself, he still spoke up to refute it.

"With the real economy booming, how could it possibly be difficult to do business?"

"Hey, if you really want to get into the physical business, why don't you give me the money and I'll count you as a shareholder?"
