Due to the overall hasty pace of going to the United States, Li Mu himself did not have much time to prepare. Although he wanted to go back to Haizhou to see his parents before leaving, he was too late in time. Li Mu could only discuss the matter of going to the United States over the phone. told them.
Mother Li was a little worried about Li Mu going to the other side of the ocean. In her words, her mother was worried when her son traveled thousands of miles, let alone traveling thousands of miles, so just thinking about it made her worried. But Father Li felt much more relieved. He actually felt that it was good. A man should have his ambitions in all directions. If he wants to achieve great things, he must travel thousands of miles.
Moreover, Dad Li also told Li Mu, telling him that he is not only responsible for two companies, but also represents the image of China's Internet industry in the world, so no matter where he goes, he must be strict with himself and pay attention to his international image.
Li Mu naturally agreed with an open mind, and Li Mu also asked many more things to pay attention to her safety. Li Mu also wrote them down one by one, and promised Li Ma that he would do what he said, which made Li Ma feel relieved.
There were only two days left before departure. Li Mu calculated in his mind that in addition to normal work and preparations for going to the United States, the remaining time in these two days would only be enough for him to have a meal with Su Yingxue and Zhao Ziqiu respectively. After dinner, Chen Wanyuan was in Sichuan and was busy working on "Super Girl". He couldn't spare time to meet with Li Mu in the past two days.
Li Mu originally wanted to ask Su Yingxue out for a meal first, and then tell her about his plan to go to the United States at the dinner table. Unexpectedly, after meeting, he heard Su Yingxue talk about the Harvard exchange student at the dinner table.
At first, Li Mu was quite surprised that Harvard took the initiative to establish a sister college with the Renmin University of China. He always felt that Harvard had no reason or motive to take the initiative to do this. However, in his view, it was a real good thing, even if it was just a thought. I don’t understand it, and I don’t think there is any hidden danger in it.
After Su Yingxue, who was sitting opposite Li Mu, told Li Mu the cause and effect, she looked at Li Mu with uncontrollable anticipation and asked him, "Do you think I should go?"
Li Mu came back to his senses and smiled slightly: "Since this is the school you have always wanted, and this opportunity is so rare, I support you to go. Half a year is not a long time anyway."
Su Yingxue nodded lightly, feeling happy and disappointed when she received Li Mu's answer. She was happy that Li Mu supported her dream. At this time, she was also subconsciously worried that he would block her overbearingly and prevent her from going; if she was disappointed, then Li Mu answered without hesitation. He seemed to have never thought about it. Once he left, the two of them would be thousands of miles apart. It would not be easy for them to meet. Could this also explain from another aspect that Li Mu's relationship with him was not enough? deep.
Li Mu noticed that Su Yingxue's expression was a little unnatural and said with a smile, "By the way, I'm going to the United States in two days."
As soon as she heard that Li Mu was going to the United States, Su Yingxue's eyes immediately shone, and she subconsciously asked, "What are you going to the United States for?"
Li Mu smiled and said: "I am mainly going to discuss Makino Technology's Series C financing this time. In addition to the financing, I also want to motivate our team in the United States and sort out and track their work in the United States."
Su Yingxue couldn't help but ask: "Then will you go to the United States often in the future?"
Li Mu said: "Makino Technology's domestic market has gradually stabilized, and there are no competing products in the country. At this time, it is really necessary to adjust the strategic focus and deploy all of Makino Technology's next core strategies overseas. In the future, the company's business in the United States will As my business grows, my frequency of going to the United States will probably increase."
"That's great!" Su Yingxue said with a smile: "In this case, if I go to Harvard as an exchange student, we will still have a chance to meet in the United States."
Li Mu nodded and said with a smile: "Of course, maybe more than once."
Su Yingxue breathed a sigh of relief and sighed: "Then I'll be relieved."
…
Zhao Ziqiu has been a little uneasy these days. Ever since her mother came to Yanjing in a fierce attack, her spirit has been in a state of high tension. Even though her mother has been gone for several days, her state has always been... Didn't adjust.
The night before Li Mu went abroad, he asked Zhao Ziqiu to have dinner with him. Before leaving school, Zhao Ziqiu deliberately dressed up carefully. Thinking of meeting Li Mu soon, the depressed emotions he had felt for many days were relieved to a certain extent.
Standing on the roadside at Yan's gate, Zhao Ziqiu was waiting for Li Mu to drive over to pick him up. Before Li Mu could wait, his mother called first.
Zhao Ziqiu didn't expect that she suddenly received a call from her mother, which immediately made her nervous again. After answering the phone, she timidly called out: "Mom."
Xie Yun asked her with a hint of concern in her voice: "Have you had dinner?"
"Not yet, I'll go eat later."
Xie Yun's concerned voice eased the tension in Zhao Ziqiu's heart a lot.
Xie Yun asked her at this time: "Why haven't you eaten yet? It's already past seven o'clock."
Zhao Ziqiu said: "Li Mu will pick me up later and have dinner with me."
"Oh..." Xie Yun responded, paused for a moment, and said, "Is Li Mu going to the United States recently?"
"Yes." Zhao Ziqiu said, "He will leave tomorrow."
After saying that, Zhao Ziqiu asked curiously: "Mom, how did you know that Li Mu was going to the United States?"
Xie Yun said: "You can guess it."
As he spoke, Xie Yun's voice became serious and she said to Zhao Ziqiu: "Mom wants to tell you something."
Zhao Ziqiu said hurriedly: "Mom, just tell me, I'm listening."
Xie Yun said: "After some time, Li Mu's girlfriend is going to the United States for half a year. After she goes to the United States, the matter between you and Li Mu must have a clear result in the next six months, or let Li Mu give it to you. Either become a legitimate girlfriend, or completely sever ties with him."
At this point, Xie Yun added sincerely: "Don't think that mom is forcing you. Everything mom does is for your own good. Do you understand?"
Zhao Ziqiu asked in surprise: "Su Yingxue is going to the United States? What is she going to the United States for?"
"Being an exchange student." Xie Yun said: "She has already confirmed with their school. She will leave in early December during the one-month preparation period and return to China in June or July next year."
Zhao Ziqiu was even more surprised: "Mom, how do you know this?"
Xie Yun said calmly: "Of course Mom knows what she is doing."
"ah?"
"Ah what! This is a life-long matter for you. You must take it seriously. Mom can only help you so far!"

PS: Sorry, I wanted to take a nap for a while to regain my composure, but it turned out it was half past one when I opened my eyes. I won’t be working this Saturday, so I’ll catch up on the two days on the weekend!
