Chapter 447: Getting Old
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Fang Yao clutched the bouquet of carnations and did not know how to react. He did not know whether to laugh or cry. He should not have expected Yin Xun to get him a normal gift.
Actually, what he wanted was not flowers, but what the flowers represented. However, seeing Yin Xun like this, he simply could not rely on Yin Xun to understand.
At this moment, the butler came over with sliced fruits and snacks. The door was not closed tightly, and the butler knocked twice before entering.
“Miss Yin, these are the snacks that our Young Master specially prepared for you. They are all your favorites. Have a taste.” The butler placed the snacks and the large fruit plate in front of Yin Xun before putting a small glass bowl that contained the fruit slices in front of Fang Yao.
“Miss Yin, a girl should eat more fruits. It is good for the body. You like to eat sweet things, so I smeared a layer of honey on you.”
Yin Xun did not even need to lower her head to smell the unique sweet smell. It was very fragrant, and her appetite was immediately aroused.
She looked down and realized that the butler had actually cut the fruit into many cute shapes. There were bunnies and stars.
“Uncle Butler, did you cut all this yourself?” Yin Xun pointed at the beautiful fruit slice and asked.
The butler shook his head and said, “No, how can 1 have such delicate hands? I made it with a mold. It’s clean and hygienic.”
Yin Xun gave him a thumbs up. None of the fruits were ugly. She did not expect the butler to be so meticulous.
Fang Yao lowered his head and looked at the glass bowl in front of him. The fruit inside was not smeared with honey. It was obvious that this batch was made from the leftovers. The good parts had all been given to Yin Xun.
Fang Yao,”…”
He knew that the butler had always liked Yin Xun, but he did not expect them to be so biased. Even the differentiation of fruits was so obvious.
“Thank you, Uncle Butler.” Yin Xun looked at the butler and thanked him with a smile.
“Don’t mention it. You guys can continue chatting. If there’s anything, just let me know. 1’11 head out first.” The butler looked at the carnations in Fang Yao’s hand and said, “Young Master, why don’t you give me the flowers first? I’ll find a vase to put them in and bring them in for you.”
“Go ahead.” Fang Yao handed the flowers to the butler. The butler took the flowers and left with a smile.
Yin Xun also noticed that Fang Yao’s fruit slices seemed to be very monotonous. Seeing the resentment in Fang Yao’s eyes, she thought that Fang Yao also wanted to eat fruits with honey, so she pushed the fruit plate in front of Fang Yao and said, “You can have these.”
“No need.” Fang Yao’s tone was a little bitter as he refused. “I’m getting old and can’t eat sweet things.”
Yin Xun did not understand what Fang Yao meant and looked at him in surprise. Fang Yao was only three years older than her. Was he getting old?
“Since that’s the case, I’ll bring you something suitable for elders to eat next time,” Yin Xun looked at Fang Yao and said. It was hard to tell if those words were intentional or not.
When Fang Yao heard this, his gaze became even more resentful.
“What were you going to say just now?” He quickly changed the topic, afraid that Yin Xun would really take this matter seriously.
After all, the way she thought about things was very unique. What if she really gave him some old man’s gift in the future?
Yin Xun’s attention was diverted by Fang Yao. She straightened her expression and said, “Now that the preparations for Xintao and Xintao Express have been completed, all that’s left is to find a suitable time to go online. As for the digital mapping project, it has just begun. After a few days of testing, 1 realized that the problem is not insufficient technology, but insufficient funds. They just don’t have enough funds to fill the database.
“If I want to improve the accuracy of navigation, I have to continue investing in it. In addition, my plan is not only to use the navigation for express delivery but also to start a business where the navigation system itself can make money. My meaning is to make an online taxi service.
“When users are using the navigation to find their route, they can also call a taxi. Customers don’t have to worry about being taken on a longer path or fear for their safety. We’ll install surveillance throughout the entire process and monitor it in real-time. When the customer gets out of the car, the system will automatically calculate the fare and let the user pay directly on the software.”
Yin Xun seemed to have mentioned this idea before. Fang Yao nodded and asked, “It’s a good idea. Do you have a plan?”
Yin Xun handed the proposal that she had prepared beforehand to Fang Yao. This proposal had been modified countless times by Yin Xun and was already the final version. She believed it did not have any flaws.
Fang Yao calmly flipped open the information and began to read the contents carefully. When he saw Yin Xun’s detailed plan, even though he already knew that Yin Xun would do something like this, he was still slightly surprised..
