Chapter Index

    Interviews continued at Wanzhong while Jiang Qin left everything to Bao Wenping and Yue Zhu becoming a hands-off boss.

    The salary he offered was generous enough not to worry about finding suitable employees.

    “Brothers I signed up for the sports meet – men’s 1000 meters!”

    At 3 pm Ren Ziqiang returned from class to the dorm excitedly wanting to drag everyone to the field to train his average face filled with eagerness.

    Linchuan University’s spring sports meet was about to start those wanting to show their face or earn credits had all signed up.

    The past two months Jiang Qin had been busy with competitions promotions tricking the office organizing recruitment feeling his health slipping again so he followed to the field deciding to exercise.

    The body is the capital of the revolution let’s take this chance to get some eight-pack abs.

    Find a secluded corner lift up the shirt to show Feng Nanshu but only let her look no touching starve her make her consider eloping every day.

    But ideals are plentiful while reality is often bony.

    The F4 who felt like Super Saiyans upon entering the field couldn’t even last two laps ending up collapsed by the side.

    “No more damn it too tired let’s rest a bit!” Jiang Qin cursed.

    Cao Guangyu also exhausted like a dead dog squatting by the track refused to run anymore: “I’d rather be a couch potato in the dorm than die of exhaustion here.”

    Ren Ziqiang still gritted his teeth persevering: “You guys are too weak!”

    “It’s not about being weak after training so long this level of exercise is a first for me.”

    “Right suddenly doing this even Ultraman can’t take it.”

    Zhou Chao with short legs slowly caught up: “Holy shit this is killing me Ren are you possessed? Why insist on signing up for the 1000 meter long distance event?”

    Ren Ziqiang pursed his lips: “I said at the start of term I want a girlfriend the sports meet is a great chance to show off how could I miss it?”

    “Joining a sports meet can get you a girlfriend what drugs are you on to have such dreams?”

    “Getting first place might I found out last year’s long distance champion changed four girlfriends in a year all because he’s fit!”

    Jiang Qin glanced at Ren Ziqiang: “Old Ren if you really want a girlfriend there’s no need to try so hard wait until next term’s freshmen come even tricking a junior is better than this.”

    After some thought Ren Ziqiang spoke: “Alright actually it’s not just for a girlfriend look at me I’m not handsome and damn it I failed a course if I’m not good at sports I’ll just be trash right?”

    “Makes sense then slowly slowly train.”

    Jiang Qin refused to run anymore sitting on the ground for over ten minutes after resting enough he slipped out of the field facing the refreshing breeze arriving at the entrepreneurship base.

    The people at 208 hadn’t been idle recently for nearly half a month they had been planning the launch of the group-buy service.

    Wei Lanlan and Tan Qing had been out running for clients since the start of term as time passed the number of merchants willing to join had reached an impressive amount.

    Chain hotels food and beverage pool halls internet cafes gyms nail and hair salons although not a huge number it basically covered all daily consumption categories of college students.

    So Jiang Qin decided to launch the group-buy service soon using university traffic to show his hand.

    By then the Wanzhong team should also be fully organized for a seamless city-wide rollout.

    “Su Nai how’s your progress?”

    Su Nai pushed up her glasses: “Making a third round of adjustments and optimizations to the secondary pages will do an online test around midnight I’ve arranged testers.”

    Jiang Qin nodded: “Wenhao what about you?”

    “The group-buy service topics have been discussed Feiyu’s side is gradually making posts to start a wave of discussions as a warm-up.”

    Right then footsteps suddenly sounded at the door.

    Cao Xinyue appeared at 208’s door glancing around then quietly called out to Jiang Qin waving for him to come out.

    “What is it senior?”

    Jiang Qin came to the door casually closing it to not disturb the rhythm of the employees working hard to make money for him thinking himself considerate.

    “Long time no see came to see you and show you something.”

    Cao Xinyue took out a hand bag from behind pulling out a Samsung phone box opening it to reveal a white phone.

    Jiang Qin frowned slightly: “You came to find me just to show off a new phone?”

    Cao Xinyue glanced at him a bit helplessly pouting: “Didn’t I mention it last week? It’s my birthday this week did you forget?”

    “Oh so this is Chen’s birthday present for you?”

    Jiang Qin immediately understood her reason for coming: “He really did that side job with me for this this phone isn’t cheap right?”

    Cao Xinyue nodded: “I checked the official site it’s 2200.”

    “So expensive? But he was out running sales all last month the part-time salary was only 1800.”

    “Mm so to buy me this phone he probably used up his living expenses too.”

    Upon hearing this Jiang Qin felt his scalp go numb: “Could true love really exist in this world?”

    Cao Xinyue was overjoyed: “I just casually mentioned my phone wasn’t working well who knew he would take it to heart.”

    “Tsk tsk the sour stench of love is so strong I can barely breathe.” Jiang Qin made an uncomfortable face.

    “Remember that question you asked me before?”

    “What question?”

    Cao Xinyue put the phone back in the box: “Getting gifts from someone you like really makes you happy so hurry and give Feng Nanshu more presents.”

    Jiang Qin immediately frowned: “Senior you’ve gone too far you know I’m not dating but keep saying this our relationship is pure and simple giving gifts is impossible.”

    “But she definitely wants you to give her presents all girls are like this.”

    Jiang Qin kept shaking his head refusing to listen no matter how Cao Xinyue persuaded him from the perspective of someone with experience he pretended not to understand being completely unaffected.

    But right then Kong Hui the team leader in charge of coordinating shipping with Wanzhong Mall arrived at the entrepreneurship base with two people behind him pushing a big box.

    “Boss the stuff you ordered is here.”

    “Wanzhong Mall’s efficiency is quite high delivering at noon?” Jiang Qin was a bit surprised.

    “You don’t know boss the volume of orders at the mall keeps increasing plus we opened up markets at the Normal University and University of Technology there aren’t enough drivers so we changed to three deliveries a day our team has been really busy lately.”

    Kong Hui chuckled: “Of course it’s a bit tiring but the earnings are also higher.”

    Jiang Qin laughed patting their shoulders then sent them back when he turned around he found Cao Xinyue watching him with an amused expression.

    Not for any other reason just because that box had a picture of an electric scooter with the words “pink” written in the bottom right corner.

    “So this is your idea of not buying gifts?”

    “Please don’t misunderstand this is for me to ride myself.”

    Upon hearing this Cao Xinyue snorted: “A pink electric scooter for you to ride? Do you take me for a three-year-old?”

    Jiang Qin looked at her coldly: “Even if it was for the little rich girl it would just be a gift between good friends.”

    “Ah yes yes spoiled to the heavens but still just friends I’ll wait until you two have a kid together see if you still dare say that.”

    “?????”

    Cao Xinyue turned to leave 208 humming a song as she left angering Jiang Qin until his face darkened grabbing a small knife chasing after her then fiercely cutting the plastic rope on the box.

    As his hand moved the outer packaging was gradually torn open revealing a pink electric scooter inside looking quite cute and petite.

    “Lanlan the Wanzhong recruitment has started help me keep an eye on it stay in touch with Yue I have something to go out for a bit.”

    “Got it boss I’ll give Sister Yue a call in a moment.”

    Hearing Wei Lanlan’s response Jiang Qin pushed the electric scooter out of the entrepreneurship base then got on speeding away.

    I must say usually driving a car suddenly riding this little electric scooter felt quite novel.

    Jiang Qin sped along the way passing the field spotting Ren Ziqiang and Cao Guangyu still running so he caught up yelling at them to run faster.

    The two stopped dazed for a moment then saw Jiang Qin zooming off again.

    “Cao bro did something just tell us to run faster?”

    “Yeah a flirty pink dog.”

    Two minutes later Jiang Qin arrived at the finance dorm building calling Feng Nanshu telling her to come down and wear pants not a skirt.

    Gao Wenhui listened beside them eyes shining wondering what kinky play this couple was up to now.

    Why can’t she wear a skirt only pants? Wouldn’t a skirt be more convenient?

    The more she thought about it the more curious she got insisting on following Feng Nanshu.

    When they arrived downstairs the little rich girl spotted Jiang Qin at a glance also seeing the electric scooter parked beside him her little mouth slightly open looking very surprised.

    Gao Wenhui couldn’t run as fast as Feng Nanshu but eventually caught up only to feel a bit disappointed upon seeing the scooter.

    She thought there would be some exciting development but it was just for riding.

    “Giving you an electric scooter so you won’t have to pant while running in the future.”

    Feng Nanshu pursed her lips: “Jiang Qin what if I don’t know how to ride?”

    “I’ll teach you a couple laps with your smart IQ you’ll definitely learn in the blink of an eye.”

    “I already said I’m not smart.” The little rich girl emphasized with a pouting face.

    “The smart I mentioned referred to learning ability.”

    “Jiang Qin you’re a good person.”

    Gao Wenhui approached glancing at Jiang Qin: “Why suddenly buy Nanshu an electric scooter?”

    Jiang Qin turned to her: “You work part-time at the front square I work at 208 separated by such a distance she often runs back and forth walking is too tiring.”

    “Oh you’re afraid the skin on her little feet will develop calluses and won’t be smooth when you touch them?”

    “?????”

    Jiang Qin stared at Gao Wenhui in a daze thinking this shipper was too damn scary how could she manage to read sweetness into this without any sugar?

    I’m a f**king upright gentleman I never had such thoughts.

    “Little Gao I advise you not to overanalyze careful or your salary might get hurt.”

    Gao Wenhui instantly became furious: “I hit the nail on the head so you threaten to dock my pay?”

    “You don’t know jack, damn it! Not even web novel authors have an imagination as wild as yours.”

    Jiang Qin grumbled before turning to teach Feng Nanshu how to ride the scooter while Gao Wenhui went to the Academy Supermarket to grab a stool and sit beside them ready to snatch any falling candy.

    Feng Nanshu indeed had never ridden a two-wheeled vehicle before so once she got on she had trouble maintaining balance wobbling as she moved.

    Jiang Qin had no choice but to grip the handlebars with one hand and hold the seat with the other trying his best to help her ride in a straight line.

    “Jiang Qin don’t touch my butt right now,” Feng Nanshu said pitifully.

    Jiang Qin instantly choked coughing. “Feng Nanshu don’t slander me! I’m not touching your butt! I’m just trying to stabilize the scooter so you don’t fall grabbing the seat the whole time.”
