Tozer’s Choice

Nan He (South and) coffee shop.

Tao Ze looked at the woman in front of him, his heart still aching slightly. After all, he had loved her once; how could he forget her just like that?

However, he knew that a broken mirror could not be mended, and the cracks of past hurt were irreparable.

He met Meng Li today primarily to make a clean break, to completely sever this relationship. He was retreating to restart his own life.

"Sir, your coffee."

A staff member placed a cup of coffee on Tao Ze's table.

"Thank you!"

Tao Ze picked up the coffee from the table, took a small sip, and looked up at Meng Li.

"Speak. Why did you want to see me?"

Meng Li did not answer Tao Ze's words. Instead, she stared blankly at the coffee in Tao Ze's hand.

"You've changed. You never used to order just one coffee. You always used to ask me what I wanted to drink."

"Is there any point in saying that? You just said it yourself, that was in the past."

Tao Ze put down his coffee, his gaze indifferent.

"Then I want to go back to the past, can we? Like we were back then."

Meng Li's voice was slightly raised, her words seemingly agitated.

"No!"

Tao Ze shook his head firmly.

"Why? The fact that you came to meet me shows you still care about me. Why can't we go back to how things were?"

Meng Li's tone became more agitated, even somewhat angry.

"Because I hate you. Wasn't I good to you back then? And how did you treat me? You used my love for you, cruelly trampling on my self-respect. You said break up, and we broke up; you said get back together, and we get back together. What do you take me for?"

"You need to know, the moment you betrayed me, there was no longer any possibility for us."

"You ask me why I came to meet you? Then I'll tell you. I just wanted to see if you would regret it, if you would want to get back together with me."

"You regret it, hahahaha, you regret it. Seeing your regretful expression, I suddenly feel so happy. After going out and about, do you still think I'm good?"

"But there's no chance for us, not even a tiny bit. There's only one Tao Ze, and you'll never meet him again in this life."

"Alright, my purpose for coming today has been achieved. I should go now."

Tao Ze picked up the coffee from the table, took another sip, then put it down and stood up to walk outside.

He took two steps, then stopped, turned around, and smiled at Meng Li.

"Finally, I wish you an unpleasant life! Goodbye, no, never again!"

After saying that,

he left the coffee shop without any lingering attachment.

The moment he left the coffee shop, Tao Ze looked at the sky. He was going to start his own life.

As for Meng Li, as for those who hurt him, he would not forgive them.

Inside the coffee shop,

Meng Li watched Tao Ze leave, her regret growing even stronger. She knew she had lost the man who once loved her the most.

She stood up, wanting to catch up, but after just a few steps, a staff member stopped her.

"Hello! That gentleman just left, but the coffee hasn't been paid for yet."

……….

Changbai Jingyuan.

"How was it? How do you feel?"

Zhang Lan looked expectantly at Shen Rou, Yang Yaoyao, and Liu Weiwei, who were sitting in the room. Just this morning, she had finally finished composing her new song.

And as her friends, Shen Rou and the others were naturally her first audience.

"It's very good!"

Yang Yaoyao nodded.

"Yes, it's really very good."

Liu Weiwei nodded in agreement.

"I like it very much, it's very good."

Shen Rou smiled. She was very happy that Zhang Lan could compose such a good song.

Zhang Lan smiled as well, listening to her friends' praise, but she wasn't arrogant.

The song she wrote could only be considered good in terms of quality; it simply couldn't compare to the songs given by CEO Chen.

But this was her current capability, and she wasn't discouraged.

"Sister Lan, when do you plan to release this song?"

Yang Yaoyao asked curiously.

"I plan to release it at 8 AM tomorrow morning."

Zhang Lan stated her plan. After all, it was a song she composed herself, and she wanted to see the audience's reaction as soon as possible.

"Then if this one is released, wouldn't you also be able to release another song you collaborated on with that netizen?"

Yang Yaoyao looked excited. Those 11 songs were all very good.

If another one was released, her playlist would have one more song.

"That's right."

Zhang Lan nodded. According to CEO Chen's rules, once her own song was released, she could release another one of CEO Chen's songs.

Of course, the matter of the 11 songs being given by CEO Chen was currently only known to her and Shen Rou.

Yang Yaoyao and Liu Weiwei still didn't know, so they usually referred to the person who gave the songs as a netizen.

"Then Sister Lan, which song are you planning to release?"

Liu Weiwei was also curious.

"I haven't decided yet. I'll think about it carefully these two days."

Zhang Lan walked back to the sofa and sat down.

……………….

The next day,

Tomorrow Group,

Inside the CEO's office.

Chen Mo quickly wrote down the Anbao Company plan on his notebook.

The first point,

was the venue. Since an Anbao Company was to be established, those security personnel would definitely need training. Otherwise, if a random bad guy came along and the security personnel couldn't fight him off, that wouldn't do.

Therefore, people entering the Anbao Company must undergo strict training.

Since it was training, a venue was definitely needed.

And training was very tough, so food and accommodation would definitely need to keep up.

The construction of all these things could also consume a large sum of system funds.

The second point,

was the training instructors. Since it was training, they couldn't just train blindly; it wouldn't be good if they injured themselves.

Therefore, it was necessary to hire several professional training instructors.

Martial arts, combat skills…

Besides these, what else was there to spend money on?

Chen Mo rubbed his temples, thinking about other areas where money could be spent to establish this Anbao Company.

Hmm!

There must be many personnel. Let's tentatively set it at one thousand people.

After all, he currently had many industries. If each company was allocated some security personnel, 1000 people would probably be used up.

For example, Corner Pet Park, such a large Pet Park, the parking lot, the ticket office, and the various viewing areas inside, all required security.

A single Pet Park alone could potentially use over 100 security personnel.

Chen Mo thought to himself, but soon his eyes lit up.

There were many stray dogs in the Pet Park. It might be possible to equip those security personnel with a dog, so that when they do security work in the future, people and dogs can act together.

Yes, that's it.

And raising dogs was a high-risk profession. Who knew if a dog would have a bad temper and bite someone?

Therefore, the salaries of those trained security personnel still needed to be raised.

Chen Mo quickly wrote in his notebook, already imagining the scene of a security guard and a dog patrolling.
