Chapter 407 Gifts and Shyness

The next day.

nine in the morning.

Huang Xu had a rare late sleep and had slept until now before he slowly opened his eyes.

Looking at the sunlight coming through the gap in the curtains, Huang Xu couldn't help but sigh.

"It's comfortable. I feel like I haven't slept in for a long time."

After sighing, Huang Xu turned his head to look at Kim Taeyeon next to him, who was still sleeping and had no intention of opening her eyes. He couldn't help but complain softly.

"Why do you have to be so stubborn?"

"Wouldn't it be better to admit defeat earlier?"

"You insisted on overestimating your own abilities. Now you know you were wrong!"

Although he was complaining, the look Huang Xu gave Kim Taeyeon was full of smiles.

Looking at her face that was so white and tender that it seemed like water could be squeezed out of it, Huang Xu couldn't help but pinch it gently, and then sighed again.

"As expected, your skin is milky, so white and tender."

Although it felt good and he couldn't let it go, he just let go of his fingers when he saw that Kim Taeyeon wanted to open her eyes because of his harassment.

I don’t know if it’s because we haven’t seen Kim Taeyeon last night because we haven’t seen each other for a long time, or because I said last night that I was also preparing gifts for her in her old age.

Although she decisively rejected Huang Xu's kindness after he said it, she was very enthusiastic during the evening event.

Or rather, a little too excited.

Even when Sunny and Goo Hara raised their hands in surrender, she still persisted.

The final consequence is that until now, she has no intention of waking up from her coma.

Of course, Huang Xu didn't want to disturb her rest. After all, she had a schedule waiting for her this afternoon.

So Huang Xu gently pulled his arms out of Kim Taeyeon's arms, and gently kissed her little face, which had lost a lot of weight but still had some baby fat.

Then he covered her with the quilt and tiptoed out of the master bedroom.

Huang Xu had just opened the door of the master bedroom when he saw a small face that was equally fair and delicate, and had just opened the door of the second bedroom.

"Good morning, Oppa!"

"Good morning, Hal!"

Looking at Goo Hara who had just opened the door, Huang Xu opened his arms directly to Goo Hara.

Goo Hara looked at Huang Xu's open arms, and without any hesitation, she jumped into his arms.

Without even waiting for Huang Xu to hold her firmly, she gave Huang Xu a sweet kiss.

Faced with Goo Hara's initiative to kiss him, how could Huang Xu refuse? Naturally, he responded enthusiastically.

It was not until two minutes later, when Goo Hara's breathing became rapid, that Huang Xu let her go.

Looking at her little face which had become a little red due to lack of oxygen, Huang Xu had to expend a lot of energy to prevent himself from biting her again.

Then he patted her back gently and said to her.

"Okay, Hal, come down first. Don't irritate me so early in the morning."

"Be careful or I'll eat you now."

"If Oppa wants, I can do it."

Faced with Huang Xu's threat, Goo Hara was not afraid at all. Instead, she looked at Huang Xu with a provocative look.

Huang Xu looked at Goo Hara's provocative eyes and shouted at her speechlessly.

"Ah~~, Hal, you've changed."

"You weren't like this before, why are you like this now?"

"You know I have something to do at noon, but you're still trying to cause trouble?"

"Oh, it turns out Oppa has something else to do and can't do anything to me!"

Goo Hara looked at the speechless expression on Huang Xu's face, and then became more aggressive, even continuing to attack Huang Xu in a somewhat gossipy way.

This also made the helplessness on Huang Xu's face become even more intense.

I always felt that it was a good thing for Goo Hara to be more lively, but now Huang Xu suddenly feels a little regretful.

Is this overly lively Goo Hara a good thing?
Fortunately, Goo Hara did not reach the level of Sunny. After teasing Huang Xu for a few words and giving him a light kiss, she obediently got off Huang Xu.

He simply tidied up his messy clothes and then spoke seriously to Huang Xu.

"Oppa, do you need Hal's help with breakfast?"

“You~~!”

Looking at Goo Hara who looked as if nothing had happened and nothing had happened, Huang Xu could only gently tap her forehead.

Then he took her to the kitchen to prepare breakfast for four people.

It took more than half an hour, and with the help of Goo Hara, Huang Xu quickly prepared a simple but nutritious breakfast.

At this time, Sunny had already gotten up.

Then the three of them tacitly agreed not to call Kim Taeyeon, but started enjoying breakfast directly.

Halfway through breakfast, when the three of them were chatting and laughing, Sunny suddenly asked Huang Xu a question.

"Huang Xu, what you said yesterday about helping Taeyeon start a company, is that true or false?"

"Of course it's true!"

"You don't think I was lying to her yesterday."

Huang Xu looked at Sunny speechlessly and said.

Sunny looked at Huang Xu's serious eyes and spoke to him with a slight apology.

"Well, yesterday I thought you saw my hint and made it up to lie to her."

"Ah, am I that kind of person?"

"Besides, when have I ever lied to you?"

"Too."

Sunny and Goo Hara looked at each other and nodded in agreement.

In fact, this is one of Huang Xu's strengths.
Whether before or after the relationship, Huang Xu always maintained a very frank attitude when facing them.

This is also the reason why they like Huang Xu and feel at ease with him.

But because of this, Sunny was looking at Huang Xu very curiously at this time.

"But can those industries you mentioned yesterday really make money in the next few years?"

"Of course. The options I provided her are not the most profitable industries in the next ten years, but they are basically industries with good potential."

Facing Sunny's doubts, Huang Xu showed full confidence.

Although he was not a business genius in his previous life, nor was he a big shot in the industry, but as a person who cares about society, it would be no problem for him to say what will be popular in the future and what kind of stores will be more popular.

So Huang Xu was afraid that Sunny and the others wouldn’t believe him, so he started to give examples.

"For example, the milk tea shop I chose for Hola is actually a trend."

"Although most people in Seoul still prefer coffee, mainly iced Americano, there are not even milk tea shops."

"But I believe that when milk tea shops come in, they will definitely occupy a certain market share." "After all, the variety of flavors of milk tea is something that coffee cannot match."

"We can also combine milk tea and coffee, and maybe we can grab more market share from these coffee shops."

"really!"

Sunny and Goo Hara listened to Huang Xu's words and nodded involuntarily.

In fact, they didn't really understand these things, but looking at Huang Xu's confident expression and tone, they naturally wouldn't have any objections.

Especially when Huang Xu already has two successful cases.

But at this time, Sunny still had a doubt that was not resolved.

"Huang Xu, we all believe what you said, but I still think it's a bit exaggerated when you said that in a few years, the number of people who keep pets here will increase rapidly and the pet products market will become huge."

"After all, the current pet market is already huge. If it continues to expand, it's impossible for everyone to stop having children and keep pets!"

"Hmm~~, how did you know that?"

Huang Xu widened his eyes and looked at Sunny in disbelief, his face full of shock.

He didn't expect that Sunny's complaint actually happened to guess a future development trend in South Korea.

You may not be able to see anything in Seoul right now, but people just feel that more and more people are keeping pets and walking their pets in public places.

But people today can never imagine that as time goes by, the number of people who keep pets will continue to expand, until ten years later, it reaches a peak that no one can imagine.

By that time, various public places in Seoul may not allow children to enter, but will not refuse pets entry.

If you see people pushing baby strollers on the market, there are probably pets inside the strollers.

The streets and alleys of Seoul are also filled with various pet service agencies.

It can be said that in ten years, South Korea's pet market will expand to an unimaginable level.

Huang Xu even remembers a piece of data that in 2022, the size of the Korean pet market had reached trillion won and was still growing.

In the same year, the total revenue of South Korea's four major entertainment companies just exceeded 3 trillion won.

And 8 trillion won, converted into domestic currency, is more than 40 billion.

It can be said that in the next few years, this industry will be a typical sunrise industry with various opportunities.

Now, as long as you invest in it, and with the support of these artists, you can make a lot of money.

As for why Huang Xu knew so much about this, it was of course because one of his restaurant’s regular customers was in the business of processing pet supplies.

His company's main business is to process various pet products according to the needs of Korean customers.

However, Huang Xu did not explain these in too much detail. After all, he couldn't say that he was reborn from the future.

It can only be explained simply based on the current social situation in South Korea, such as changes in the social environment, the rise of pet culture, and of course, more importantly, the young people's pursuit of freedom, independence and personalized lifestyles.

In a nutshell, the Korean pet market is definitely one of the future development trends.

After listening to Huang Xu's story, sunny felt confused and impressed.

Because she started being a trainee very early, she stopped going to school after high school.

So she didn't really understand what Huang Xu said about the social environment and cultural changes.

However, seeing that Huang Xu understood so well and what he said made so much sense, she naturally couldn't raise any objections.

After all, the reality is that many people she knows do have the idea of ​​keeping pets, or already have one.

So in the end I just sighed.

"It's a pity that Taeyeon refused!"

"It's nothing to regret. Just because she refused doesn't mean I won't work in this industry anymore."

"I am so optimistic about this industry, how could I give up?"

Huang Xu looked at Sunny who was sighing regretfully, and was a little speechless. Then he looked at her and Goo Hara and said.

"She refused, but don't we still have you guys?"

"If I help you set up a company, will you refuse?"

"No, Oppa will do whatever he asks me to do. I will listen to him."

When Goo Hara heard Huang Xu's words, she immediately expressed her loyalty to Huang Xu.

Compared to Sunny who considers so much, Goo Hara is much simpler, just like she said yesterday.

She has already chosen Huang Xu, so everything she has belongs to Huang Xu.

It's the same whether it's with Huang Xu or with me.

Sunny glanced at Goo Hara, then at Huang Xu, feeling the silent understanding between the two, she suddenly felt like an outsider.

So she immediately put Kim Taeyeon's matter behind her and spoke to the two of them.

"Ah~~, that's enough. You're still showing off your affection in front of me. Aren't you afraid that I'll bite you?"

With Sunny's words, the breakfast of the three of them came to an end.

After finishing the meal and cleaning up, Sunny came to Huang Xu with a box.

"Well, here's a gift for you."

"My gift?"

Looking at the box in Sunny's hand, Huang Xu was also a little surprised.

Speaking of which, he and Sunny have been together for several months, but to be honest, they rarely give each other gifts in such a formal way.

I had given them birthday presents before, such as jade necklaces, but they had never taken them out.

Basically, it can only collect dust in the jewelry box.

That's why Huang Xu thought of giving them a shop or a company to provide them with some security.

Now looking at the box in Sunny's hand, Huang Xu had no intention of being polite and opened the box directly in front of Sunny.

"Why did you think of giving me a watch?"

Looking at the dark gold watch in the box, Huang Xu seemed even more surprised.

After all, he already had a watch, and to be honest, he hardly had the habit of wearing a watch.

Sunny took out the watch slowly and helped Huang Xu put it on.

"If I don't give you a watch, what will you wear? And the watch you wear to nightclubs?"

"Don't talk about your watch. It's okay to wear it to a nightclub, but can you wear that watch when you go out to discuss business?"

In his words, he did not hide his disdain for Huang Xu's watch.

Compared with the watch Huang Xu bought before, the one she chose for Huang Xu is the Patek Philippe Nautilus 5712.

Not only does it look more simple and elegant on the outside, it is also more suitable for Huang Xu's current identity.

Huang Xu listened to Sunny's complaints and didn't dare to express any opinions or even make any excuses. He just kept praising Sunny for her vision.

Afterwards, he took the watch with him and went to meet Lee Soo Man on a date with Sunny.

When Huang Xu and Sunny changed their clothes and left the apartment, Goo Hara gently knocked on the door of the master bedroom.

"Ouni, they've left, you can come out now."
