Sister's Choice

"Ouyang Yan, what nonsense are you spouting? What older sister?"

Zhou Feifei put a hand to her forehead, feeling quite speechless towards the big-waved Ouyang Yan. She was usually so carefree, and even though graduation was approaching, she still spoke so carelessly.

Ouyang Yan, who had jogged in, grinned and held up the phone in her hand, saying to her, "I knew you wouldn't know. Look, who is this?"

Zhou Feifei was stunned and asked, "What do you mean, who is this?"

Saying that, she took the phone and looked. What appeared on the screen was a high-definition picture. In the center of the image was a row of several people standing in front of a podium shaking hands. On the left side was none other than Zhou Feiyu.

"When did you take a picture of my brother? Where is this?"

Zhou Feifei was immediately surprised, not understanding how Ouyang Yan had taken this picture.

"And you call yourself his younger sister!"

Ouyang Yan snorted, snatched the phone back, and teased, "Little Feifei, Little Feifei, I really didn't realize your brother was so capable. He's chatting and laughing with so many big shots, shaking hands and signing contracts, and signing contracts worth hundreds of millions. It looks like everyone in our dorm will have to cling to your leg from now on, Little Feifei."

Zhou Feifei was even more shocked and subconsciously said, "Slow down, let me process this. I don't understand what you're talking about."

"Just watch the news yourself."

Ouyang Yan reached out and took Zhou Feifei's phone, searched for the news broadcast by Nanjiang Province Television Station, and played the recording for her to watch.

Two minutes later, after watching the news, Zhou Feifei finally understood why Ouyang Yan reacted this way.

"What's going on?"

Zhou Feifei muttered to herself, her face filled with an expression of disbelief.

"What's wrong? What happened?"

The other two girls in the same dorm saw this and quickly asked.

Ouyang Yan immediately replied, "Little Feifei's older brother, our senior from a few years ago. Didn't Little Feifei say he was working in their hometown, Nanjiang County, before? Now, he's amazing. He started his own business and became a big boss. Zhao Yongyong, the Vice President of Hua Long Technology, and Chen Xi, the President of Zhong Wei Technology, are both his partners. They were on the Nanjiang Television Station evening news today, saying they're investing one hundred million in Nanjiang County to make optical materials."

"One hundred million!"

The two girls immediately exclaimed in surprise, their eyes shining with wonder as they looked at Zhou Feifei.

In an era where graduation meant unemployment, social animals were everywhere, and involution reigned supreme, most college students had a very clear understanding of themselves. They knew that only a small handful of people would ever become rich, and they themselves would likely be ordinary people constantly struggling for a few pieces of silver.

After graduation, being able to earn one or two million, buy a house and a car, was already a blessing.

Ten million? That was a dream!

One hundred million? That could only be a dream!

They never expected that Zhou Feifei, who had an ordinary family background and lived frugally in the dorm, was still studying at school, and suddenly immense wealth fell from the sky. In a flash, she became the sister of a billionaire. This transformation was nothing short of astonishing, so much so that they couldn't help but feel jealousy and envy.

Why don't I have a good brother?

Then, the two looked at each other and thought to themselves.

Ouyang Yan's joke, saying that Zhou Feifei would be her older sister from now on, was in a sense also a form of envy and jealousy towards Zhou Feifei.

"That's my brother's, not mine. Don't look at me like that."

At this moment, Zhou Feifei recovered from her shock. Seeing her roommates' reactions, she took a deep breath and said with a determined expression.

Ouyang Yan sat down and leaned in, saying, "Feifei, don't be so serious. We didn't say anything wrong, we're just happy for you. Besides, isn't it great to have a billionaire brother? Self-reliance is one thing, but sometimes it's okay to bask in a little reflected glory. Haven't you been worrying about whether to graduate or take the exam for overseas study qualifications these past few days? I think you should take the overseas study exam. Since you have your brother, you don't have any worries."

Hearing this, Zhou Feifei felt it made a lot of sense. She had been too sensitive.

Indeed, if she had considered studying abroad before, it would have meant being too far from her parents. She was worried about her brother being alone at home and not being taken care of. The main issue was also the huge expense; it would likely require her parents and brother to support her together.

But now, all these difficult problems were no longer problems.

Just consider it a loan.

Zhou Feifei convinced herself mentally. She planned to ask her brother to borrow the money for studying abroad and pay him back after she returned and started working. This way, she could have the best of both worlds.

Zhou Feifei glanced at Ouyang Yan and said with a smile, "You're right, I was being too calculating."

Ouyang Yan giggled. Knowing Zhou Feifei's strong personality, she didn't take it to heart and didn't think Zhou Feifei was being overly dramatic. She then asked, "Feifei, you know my grades aren't good enough for studying abroad. I'm looking for a job recently. Can you ask your brother if he's hiring? What's the salary like? If I, a junior in Electronic Information Engineering, apply, can I get hired?"

"Get lost!"

Zhou Feifei rolled her eyes at her, uttering a silent word.

Ouyang Yan quickly reached out and grabbed her, saying seriously, "I'm serious, I'm not joking. I'm from the provincial capital, and my parents' orders are to work in Nanjiang Province at most, not outside the province. Also, your brother is partnering with companies like Hua Long and Zhong Wei for such a large investment, they definitely need a lot of people. Aren't the graduates from our school better than those hired through social recruitment?"

Another girl also said, "That's right, Feifei. Big companies like Hua Long and Zhong Wei used to recruit at our school, and everyone was willing to go. Your brother is short on people and he's our senior. If he comes to recruit at our school, I believe more students will be willing to apply."

Zhou Feifei thought for a moment and replied, "I'll ask him."

Regardless of whether her roommates genuinely wanted to work at her brother's company, since the company was established, it naturally needed to recruit widely.

Afterward, Zhou Feifei went out to make a phone call.

"Hello, Brother, I just saw you on TV."

After the call connected, Zhou Feifei's cold demeanor from earlier in front of her roommates vanished, replaced by a cheerful smile. She spoke rapidly like a machine gun, saying a lot at once: "If my roommate hadn't just happened to see the news and shown it to me, I wouldn't have known until now that you've built such a big business these past few days. Is that Fei Yang Optical Material Company the one you founded? Are you short on people? Do you want to hold a campus recruitment drive at your alma mater? Do you specialize in optical materials? Is there anything I can help with..."

Nanjiang County, Fei Yang New Material Company.

Having just finished answering a large wave of congratulatory calls from relatives and friends, as well as a bunch of unfamiliar calls with good or bad intentions, Zhou Feiyu was almost numb. But when he received his sister Zhou Feifei's call, he couldn't help but feel happy.

His depressed mood finally improved a little.

Like him, his sister Zhou Feifei had also been someone who didn't need worrying about since childhood. Her academic performance was always among the best. The two siblings successively entered Nanjiang University, a key university in Nanjiang Province, a national 211/985 Double First-Class university.

He was very fond of this sister, his only sister.

Listening to his sister's laughter and questions, Zhou Feiyu briefly introduced, "Right now, you can only say it's just starting. There's still a long way to go in the future. Campus recruitment? I have that idea, but I won't go. I'm not responsible for specific management, I'm a hands-off boss. As for you helping, forget it. You should honestly go and take the exam for overseas study qualifications. Strive to learn more advanced technology and concepts from Hans Cat and return to the country as soon as possible after completing your studies. Maybe by then, I'll need your help..."
