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

The subway arrived at Wongjiao Station, and Gu Yu and Lin Xinyue felt that they didn't even need to move their feet as the bustling crowds swept them out of the station.

Once on the ground, the view didn't open up much because all they had to do was look up to see the towering high-rises blocking out the sun.

People seemed like crickets in a jar, able to see a patch of sky above their heads, yet unable to escape.

This was the sense of oppression a modern metropolis brought to its people.

Modu was like this, and Xiangjiang was no different.

People seemed extremely insignificant at this moment.

Luckily, having another person by his side made all the difference. Gu Yu turned his head to look at Lin Xinyue, who was gazing up at the buildings even taller than those in Modu, holding her hand tightly.

Feeling the strength coming from the palm of her hand, she lowered her head and flashed Gu Yu a sweet smile, "Although they are all skyscrapers, they look quite different from the style in Modu!"

Gu Yu nodded, "Yes, after all, this place used to be a British colony and it has retained many buildings from that era."

Gu Yu nodded again, comparing the architectural style here with the boxy buildings of Modu. The architecture in Xiangjiang highlighted features like domes, colonnades, and gables, characteristic of Neoclassicism.

Huaxia and Western architectural styles melded together here, forming what everyone commonly calls — Xiangjiang style.

"Let's go, let's go!" Lin Xinyue was brimming with excitement. She had always wanted to visit Xiangjiang, and now here she was for the first time, with the person she loved most.

It was like a dream!

If it had been before, she couldn't have even imagined it.

"Oh, right, our phones should have signal now, right?" Just as Lin Xinyue was about to drag Gu Yu into the crowd, she suddenly stopped.

She took out her phone and began checking the network.

Upon hearing this, Gu Yu quickly realized that he was no longer on the Ark and should be able to use the network to contact Ideal Paradise!

Although it had only been a few days without contact with the company, he was already very anxious. He truly worried that, in his absence, the company would descend into chaos.

Even though he had already arranged the personnel work and delegated authority beforehand, he knew that Ideal Paradise still lacked a robust management framework.

His way of hiring people was still based on personal loyalty, which, while securing firm control over the company, also came with many disadvantages.

That meant people with real talent couldn't rise up, and those he put in place couldn't manage more complex issues due to their lack of capability.

There might only be one or two such people, but the management layer at Ideal Paradise wasn't exactly large.

For companies like Tencent or Yi Net, which had deeply entrenched and perfected management frameworks, issues with one or two managers or even a department wouldn't impact the foundation of the company.

But for Ideal Paradise, if one senior manager encountered issues, the company could very well come to an operational halt...

Then a domino effect would follow, plunging the entire company into crisis.

"Uh, it seems like the phone is off because it ran out of battery." Gu Yu pressed the power button for a while, but it didn't respond.

He then remembered that he had forgotten to charge his phone last night...

Luckily, Lin Xinyue's phone still had battery. As soon as she turned it on, she received a text message welcoming her to Xiangjiang City.

The first thing she did was turn on her data, then open Feixin, and video-call her good sister Hu Xiaoya.

The video call ringtone sounded for about ten seconds, and then a beaming Hu Xiaoya appeared on the screen.

"Yueyue! You haven't messaged me for several days, I thought you had forgotten about your good sister!"

In the video, Hu Xiaoya pouted, very much complaining about her good sister not messaging her for four days.

"Oh dear, I was drifting on the sea for a few days, there's no signal on the boat, I couldn't message you."

Lin Xinyue explained, and seeing Gu Yu signaling her to keep it a secret, she cleverly didn't reveal anything about the Ark.

"A boat? For several days? Where did you go? And that behind you, isn't it a subway station? Why is the sign in traditional characters, and there are so many foreigners going in and out?"

Hu Xiaoya's expression froze, then her face suddenly moved close to the lens, staring at the subway station behind Lin Xinyue with full curiosity.

"Did you go to Taiwan?" Hu Xiaoya guessed, her face full of envy.

Her best friend had actually taken a boat trip!

"Ah, no, no, I'm in Xiangjiang now! Look, the streets of Xiangjiang!"

Lin Xinyue quickly shook her head, then switched the Feixin video camera to the front camera, and the street view of Xiangjiang's Wangjiao was immediately transmitted to the screen.

"How about that? See? It's the Xiangjiang we've always dreamed of!" Lin Xinyue said with a smug face.

Hu Xiaoya indeed looked envious, her face almost sticking to the screen as if she wanted to jump through the phone, "Wow, it really is Xiangjiang! So many people!"

Then she leaned back, placed her hands on her hips, and glared at Lin Xinyue, "Hmm! You went to Xiangjiang behind my back! Didn't we agree to go together?"

Lin Xinyue grinned sheepishly, "Heeheehee, you couldn't come out, right? I came over in advance to check it out for you, we can come together next time!"

Girls, this creature, always have a strange desire to show off in front of their best friends, this bragging isn't exactly a compliment but something like, "Look, I'm doing better."

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, I'm so jealous! You must visit every tourist spot, so you can be my guide later!"
