Chapter 138: I Wish I Had Known You Earlier

Lu Wanggui said calmly, “I was a few years younger than Xu Xiyao at that time. My family wasn’t well-off. In order to ease the pressure on my family, I started thinking of ways to earn money when I was in my teens. I’ve done almost every job you can think of. I sold paper and plastic bottles to the recycling center, and was an ice cream vendor. After finishing the university entrance exam, my results were pretty good. I was given a partial scholarship. But I had to earn the rest of the tuition fees and living expenses by myself. At that time, private tutoring was not popular. Most people relied on physical labor to earn money.”

Xiang Xiaoyuan thought about it. Lu Wanggui was only seventeen or eighteen years old when he took the university entrance exam. It was more than twenty years ago.

At that time, it was indeed rare for parents to hire private tutors for their children. It was mainly because they were not aware of it at that time. Therefore, at that time, there were not many jobs that Lu Wanggui could do.

“Then what kind of jobs did you find in the end?”

Lu Wanggui looked at her and smiled gently. “I was an apprentice in a repair workshop and worked in a factory that made glasses. In more than two months, I tried almost everything and saved some money.”

An apprentice in a workshop? Just by listening to him, one could tell that he was poor back then.

Looking at him now, with his calm temperament and appearance, it was hard to believe that he had a difficult past. He had suffered so much when he was young.

Xiang Xiaoyuan sighed. “That must be hard.”

In a little more than twenty years, he had created a miracle and changed his life.

Lu Wanggui said, “It’s alright. It’s not that bad.”

Under the moonlight, Lu Wanggui was still as calm as ever. His whole body exuded a sense of calmness. Xiang Xiaoyuan had always known that Lu Wanggui was very powerful, but knowing was one thing and truly feeling it from his words was another.

This man was indeed not ordinary.

“However, I’m not as lucky as Xu Xiyao. If I remember correctly, that’s his name, right?”

Xiang Xiaoyuan looked up at him. “Why do you say that?”

“I’m not as lucky as him because I didn’t have a boss like you.”

Lu Wanggui’s voice was deep and charming. The two of them were close to each other and the surroundings were quiet. Xiang Xiaoyuan’s ears were filled with his whispers. “You think I’m good?”

“Of course,” Lu Wanggui said with certainty.

Xiang Xiaoyuan’s lips curled up. She was embarrassed. She was not as modest. Hearing the big shot Lu Wanggui praise her, she got a little carried away.

At night, after taking a shower and returning to bed, Xiang Xiaoyuan did not stay idle. She took out Lu Wanggui’s notebook and began to study it. The more she read, the more fascinated she became. It was because of his vigorous handwriting and the thoughts and wisdom he wrote in the notebook. His success was neither accidental nor lucky. He had earned it slowly.

She was so obsessed with the world that he had created that when Lu Wanggui came to the bedside after taking a shower, she did not notice it.

It was Lu Wanggui who could not stand it and reached out to block her line of sight before she raised her head.

Their eyes met. Lu Wanggui wasn’t wearing his glasses at the moment. His gaze was as gentle and reserved as usual. He reminded her, “It’s very late.”

“Oh.”

Xiang Xiaoyuan cherished this notebook very much. After closing it carefully, she put it into the drawer of the bedside table.

After turning off the lights, the two of them lay on the bed and carried out the bedtime activity that they had every night, a heart-to-heart talk.

As they chatted, Xiang Xiaoyuan couldn’t help but think, what was Lu Wanggui like when he was in university? Was he high-spirited, or was he as calm and reserved as he was now?

Thinking of this, she couldn’t help but say, “If only I had known you when I was in university.”

She sighed from the bottom of her heart. If she could choose to travel back in time, she would rather travel back in time to Lu Wanggui’s university days. At that time, she could be thick-skinned enough to be his partner, or at the very least, be thick-skinned enough to be his sidekick and follow closely behind him, then she would also become rich.

Although she would not be the richest person, she would at least be a rich woman with a net worth of more than 100 million!

What a missed opportunity!

Lu Wanggui misunderstood Xiang Xiaoyuan’s words. After a moment of silence, he said in a low voice, “It’s not too late.”

Xiang Xiaoyuan thought about it and felt that what Lu Wanggui said made sense. It was not too late. If she followed in Lu Wanggui’s footsteps and absorbed his valuable experience, she would still have a chance to become a rich woman with a net worth of more than 100 million in her lifetime!

She nodded and said briskly, “Yes, it’s not too late.”
