Chapter 21 Big Fat But Not Fat
After having breakfast in town, Sun Ran drove his mother and the two children to Wanda Plaza in the city.
That area is the most bustling commercial district in the entire city. It's a large place with complete facilities, offering everything from food and drinks to entertainment. My mom and her two little ones have plenty of places to play.
After settling them in, he continued driving to the address Wang Jun had given him the day before, using navigation to get there.
A newly built industrial park located near the river.
Sun Ran parked the car and found the location according to the building number. It seemed to be some kind of e-commerce building.
Knock knock~
He stood in front of the glass door and gently knocked twice.
A bronze plaque hangs on one side of the entrance: Yunxiang Intelligent Technology Co., Ltd., which is the company name that Wang Jun told him yesterday.
Sun Ran peered curiously through the glass door.
In a small office of about 100 square meters, there wasn't much decoration. It was empty except for one person with their back to us, gesturing wildly at their phone.
It looks like they're doing a live stream.
The room's layout seems a bit different from a typical partitioned office.
Seven or eight desks were placed against the wall, with computers on them, most of them with dual monitors, which looked quite professional.
In the middle were rows of shelves and several tables the size of pool tables.
The shelves were piled with tools and exquisitely designed black boxes.
Most of the tables were empty, except for one with rows of square boxes neatly arranged on it, plugged in with green lights flashing, looking like batteries being charged.
Sun Ran stood outside the door, somewhat curious.
It's been a few years since we last met. Has Wang Jun started a new energy business?
Are you still selling goods via live streaming?
He was a little unsure for a moment.
At this moment, the streamer in the room heard the knocking and turned around to look. In that brief glance, Sun Ran raised his eyebrows and touched his chin.
The company that's hired this streamer is pretty good. Although she's not as good-looking as me, she's definitely good enough to charm those girls online.
And that physique—wearing a t-shirt and short sleeves, his muscles were bulging; he looked like someone who regularly worked out.
That fat guy is going astray!
Isn't this just copying others and developing a male-oriented economy?
How come he was such an honest kid when he was young, but turned bad when he grew up?
As he stood at the door, heartbroken for his brother, the streamer in the room saw who had come in and quickly turned to his phone, saying a few words.
Then he raised his hand to turn off his phone, ran over, and pulled the door open with a whoosh.
He opened his arms and warmly hugged Sun Ran.
"Hahaha, Great Sage, you've finally arrived! How was it? Didn't keep you waiting too long?"
As she spoke, she kept slapping him on the back, leaving Sun Ran completely stunned.
No, who are you to be so enthusiastic?
Are we that close?
His eyes widened in surprise when he heard the words "Great Sage".
When he was little, he looked like a skinny monkey, and he was incredibly mischievous. Plus, his surname was Sun, and he always played with Wang Jun, that chubby little guy.
Over time, the two developed nicknames and became a duo: Wukong and Bajie...
However, when he himself used the name Wukong, it became Dasheng (Great Sage).
To be able to call someone by that nickname, doesn't that mean...?
"You, you're Ba, no, Big Fatty, no, you, you're Wang Jun?!"
Sun Ran looked at the handsome young man with neat short hair and a kind smile with surprise.
Hmm, those eyebrows and eyes do seem a bit familiar.
If we shrink it horizontally a bit more...
Holy crap, it really is huge!
"How did you get so thin all of a sudden? Just two years ago when I saw you, you weighed over 200 pounds!"
Sun Ran looked at his childhood friend, his face full of disbelief.
They're like completely different people!
"Hehe, last year I wanted to pursue a girl, but she thought I was too fat, so I lost weight."
Wang Jun scratched his head and chuckled sheepishly.
"How much weight did you lose?"
"Around 60, now it's 160..."
"You're ruthless!" Sun Ran gave him a thumbs up.
To lose so much weight and maintain it, that's truly impressive.
This guy comes from a well-off family, and I've never seen him thin before. Today is quite an eye-opener for me.
It's true that fat people are often high-potential individuals.
"Haha, it's alright."
Wang Jun smiled sheepishly and quickly pulled him towards the door, saying, "Come on in, come on in and sit down. I've been quite busy lately, so the office is a bit messy. Please don't mind."
She looked down and saw what he was carrying, and her face lit up with a smile again: "Wow, you even brought chicks and vegetables."
You picked all of these yourself, right? Haha, and there's even cured meat?!
"Thanks, bro, for thinking of me!"
As he spoke, he happily snatched the item from Sun Ran's hand.
"Damn, weren't you on a diet?"
"It's okay, I can just do more weightlifting after I finish eating."
"If that doesn't work, then go hungry for two meals!"
Wang Jun answered nonchalantly, leaving Sun Ran speechless.
Seriously, are all you dieters this ruthless?
"What happened to that girl? Did she catch up with him later?"
Out of curiosity, he blurted out a sentence.
"Heh, heh heh..." Wang Jun glanced at him but didn't say anything, though the lewd smile on his face said it all.
Sun Ran clicked her tongue at him. This damn sour smell, it's definitely love!
"Where is he? When are you all free to get together for a meal?"
He was genuinely curious and wanted to see what this person looked like that could cause Wang Jun to change so drastically.
To everyone's surprise, after he finished speaking, Wang Jun shook his head:
"Hey, don't even mention it. She's busier than me. She hardly has any time to sleep, let alone go out for parties and meals."
"Why?"
Sun Ran was taken aback: "So busy? Surely not? What does she do?"
"I just got accepted into graduate school this year, and the day after I received the admission notice, my supervisor called me to the project team."
Wang Jun spoke with a helpless expression, and Sun Ran was speechless after listening.
Goodness, another female academic star?
That's all!
"Come, come, have a seat. What would you like to drink? Tea or coffee?"
Wang Jun pulled him to a chair and asked urgently.
"Have you forgotten why I came here today?"
Sun Ran was speechless. Sure enough, a person's IQ drops sharply when they fall in love, right?
Thank goodness I'm single!
He picked up the bag from the ground and took out a few cups: "Here, this is honey tea I brought for you. It will help you sleep tonight."
"Didn't I tell you I was here today to let you try the drinks?"
"Haha, my bad, my bad. I was so excited to see my old friend after so long that I forgot for a second."
Wang Jun slapped his forehead sheepishly and said, "Then wait here for a while, I'll go get some water."
After saying that, he picked up the cup and ran to the back.
"Don't use boiling water; honey should be dissolved in warm water!"
"Okay, I understand!"
Wang Jun responded and ran into the back tea room. A moment later, he came out excitedly carrying a teapot.
"There's no warm water available, let it cool down first."
"Um."
Sun Ran tested the temperature of the kettle, placed it on the table next to him, and curiously looked around the office...
"By the way, does your company do e-commerce live streaming? I just saw you doing a live stream."
"Hehe, no, the live stream is just for promotion. I mainly provide drone services."
Wang Jun scratched his head: "Agricultural plant protection, as well as aerial photography, drone shows and stuff like that."
"Wow, that's amazing! This is high-tech!"
Sun Ran's eyes widened, and she gave him another thumbs up.
As expected, rich people are different; even a casually started company can be so high-end.
"Hehe, it's alright."
Wang Jun chuckled and scratched his head: "That's what she studied in computer science. I just wanted to help her put her knowledge to practical use."
Seeing the smile on his face, Sun Ran rolled her eyes at him.
You're this dedicated to a relationship, bro, you're hopeless!
