Chapter 272: The Son-in-Law Is Truly a Fascinating Man
by xennovelWith the morale stabilized, the work efficiency at the group-buy Wanzhong branch has noticeably improved.
After the heads left Jiang Qin’s office, they immediately began distributing accounts to their subordinates, urging employees to quickly familiarize themselves with the forum’s features and develop extensive promotional plans.
They were already very familiar with group-buying, but now they had to familiarize themselves with a new website, which was actually very time-consuming.
But who could refuse when the boss was paying so well?
The employees didn’t have a single complaint as they nimbly logged into Zhihu, but after taking one look, they held their breaths.
The goddess of justice, Zhang Zixuan, updated her daily photo series.
“Holy shit, sitting in the office and getting paid to look at this… is this really appropriate?”
“At this moment, I finally understand, I made the right choice joining this company!”
“Being able to see such high-quality content and still get paid, I’m literally crying!”
“If all future work is like this, how about we give half our salary back to the boss? I feel like I’m taking advantage of him keeping it all.”
“Sounds good, I’ll make a people’s entrepreneur banner for the boss after work and send it to him.”
Jiang Qin had already come out of the office at this point. He stood at the door, expressionlessly observing for a round, thinking that it was settled, Zhihu’s promotion was definitely secured.
Because when a website can attract your attention in the shortest time, then this website has already succeeded, and the remaining issue is only how to let more people know about the existence of this website.
Jiang Qin didn’t linger any longer, turned a circle and returned to Linchuan University, then pointed the way for Uncle Gong all the way to the entrepreneurship base.
His Audi was currently parked by the roadside, and because it had been driven very little recently, it was covered in a layer of dust.
Jiang Qin got out of the Bentley, took out a hose from the Audi’s trunk, secretly pulled out the grass irrigation port and connected it, his movements were so skilled it made one’s heart ache.
“Uncle Gong, you pull out the car key as well, I’ll give you a wash too.”
“Alright, young master.”
The Bentley belonging to the little rich girl’s family also hadn’t been out for a long time and was more or less dusty.
Jiang Qin installed a pressure boost nozzle at the end of the hose and gave the car’s body a fierce spray, while the keys hanging at his waist jingled with his footsteps, making him look quite experienced.
One second ago he was still in the office, expressionlessly throwing money around like he owned several gold mines, but the next second he returned to the school to steal water to wash the car. Uncle Gong had been a driver for the Feng family for several decades and had seen ninety if not a hundred talented youths, but he had never seen anyone as interesting as Young Master Jiang.
“The son-in-law is truly a fascinating man.” Uncle Gong couldn’t help but sigh.
“Hm?”
Jiang Qin’s ears were filled with the spraying sound of water and he didn’t quite hear clearly. He was dazed for a while before smiling involuntarily, “Uncle Gong, the act is over, don’t call me young master anymore, those two words give me goosebumps all over.”
Uncle Gong smiled slightly, “Alright, Young Master Jiang.”
“…”
This old man was truly unaffected. Jiang Qin suddenly froze while holding the hose, then without moving his right hand, he used his left to pull out his phone and type.
One minute, two minutes… ten minutes, fifteen minutes, Uncle Gong’s expression gradually grew puzzled, thinking why Young Master Jiang seemed frozen in place, not moving at all?
He was just about to speak when he saw his family’s young miss running over from the tree-lined path opposite them.
“Uncle Gong.”
“Young miss, why have you come?”
Feng Nanshu stretched out her finger to point at Jiang Qin, “Came to play with Jiang Qin.”
Jiang Qin switched the hose from his right hand to his left and shook it a couple of times, “What took you so long? My hand is about to go numb. Quick, look, a rainbow.”
The water sprayed out like silk mist after being pressurized by the nozzle, floating and scattering while refracting the light, creating a small rainbow with all seven colors, as if it was hung above the car roof, the scene was extremely like an idol drama.
Jiang Qin was very proud, “Didn’t I say that I can do magic?”
“Jiang Qin, I also want to play.” Feng Nanshu’s eyes were shining as she eagerly wanted to take over the nozzle.
“Then don’t wave it around randomly, the angle might be off and it’ll disappear.”
Jiang Qin handed the nozzle to her, then retreated to the side and squatted on a stone stool, watching the little rich girl spraying water under the sunlight, narrowing his eyes, even his mood was exceptionally bright.
So Young Master Jiang was motionlessly holding up the nozzle just to leave the rainbow that appeared by chance for the young miss to see…
Uncle Gong glanced at the “Domineering Son-in-Law in the City: Final Volume” in his hand and suddenly felt the story inside wasn’t interesting anymore.
“Young Master Jiang.”
“What is it, Uncle Gong?” Jiang Qin raised his head.
Uncle Gong came over, “This Bentley has been in service since the young miss started middle school, and according to the family’s intention, it’s also time for a change, after all, no matter how good a car is, its safety performance will decline after a long time.”
After hearing this, Jiang Qin was stunned, “Only seven years? You wealthy families are too exaggerated, right?”
“For the family, the young miss’s safety is the most important, and this car won’t be wasted either, it’ll be repurposed, so I wanted to ask for your opinion?”
Jiang Qin was stunned, “What opinion?”
“What kind of car does Young Master Jiang like?” Uncle Gong asked with a smile.
“…”
Jiang Qin felt uneasy, thinking oh no, Uncle Gong has really taken him as the son-in-law, otherwise, who would ask the opinion of her best friend when changing Feng Nanshu’s car!
He couldn’t help but glance at the “Domineering Son-in-Law in the City” in Uncle Gong’s hand, thinking that shitty web novels were truly harmful. Although his own character was a bit unscrupulous, there were clear boundaries in how he conducted himself and handled matters!
“Uncle Gong, our family isn’t short on money, right? Then buy a Lamborghini, I’ll be able to use it in the future.”
Work matters were temporarily put aside, but a more severe problem was imminent, which was the final exam of the second semester.
As Linchuan’s first ever learning star, and a publicly acknowledged one at that, it would be too embarrassing if he could only barely scrape past the passing line every final exam, and who knows how many of those scores were inflated by the teachers giving face to Dean Zhang.
The learning star giveth, the learning star taketh away.
Jiang Qin sighed while frantically reviewing, but unfortunately, what couldn’t go in truly couldn’t go in.
Because when you forcefully extract yourself from one matter and want to invest all your energy into another, it’s very difficult to do so without a trigger.
So the next day, he lured Feng Nanshu into Room 207, locked the door, then took off her shoes and placed her fragrant and soft little feet on the desk in front of him as a reward for studying well, and sure enough, his efficiency improved a lot.
“Today is another day of loving to study.” Jiang Qin was extremely satisfied, feeling like his belly was full of ink.
Feng Nanshu rubbed her toes, looking at him coldly, “Jiang Qin, you’re a bad bear.”
“No, you’re wrong, I’m actually a pervert.” Jiang Qin patted his textbook, already planning how to study tomorrow.
Studying is so damn enjoyable.
If he had this kind of study aid tool in high school, Tsinghua and Peking University wouldn’t have been a big deal.
This principle tells us that having a good friend is really very helpful for studying.
The next morning, light rain. After Gao Wenhui got up and washed, she planned to go watch the shop at Xitian, but discovered that she had forgotten to wash the socks she had changed out of the past few days while busy reviewing.
“Nanshu, I don’t have any clean socks, can you lend me a pair?”
“Wenhui, I don’t have any socks to lend you.” Feng Nanshu raised her head and responded blankly.
Gao Wenhui was slightly stunned, “Eh? Don’t you have a lot of socks?”
“They’re all torn.”
Feng Nanshu replied with a straight face, then continued flipping through the social etiquette book borrowed from the library, carefully studying what else best friends could do.
Gao Wenhui was stunned for a moment, thinking that there were no rats at Linchuan University?
Whatever, it was still raining outside anyway, she’ll just go in slippers. The counter at Xitian was quite high, so even if she wore slippers, no one would be able to see.
Gao Wenhui held an umbrella and went out, arriving at Xitian, replacing the part-time university student who had been busy for a whole morning, then started leaning on the counter in a daze.
After all, it was a rainy day, very few people came to drink milk tea. Even the university students who braved the rain to go to class were thinking of hurrying to the classroom, almost no one chose to come buy a cup of milk tea first.
The more she sat, the more bored she felt, so she started conceiving the novel she planned to write, that great work forged with Jiang Qin and Feng Nanshu as the protagonists, supplemented by her own wild ideas.
“Loving You in the Name of Friendship”
Gao Wenhui picked up a pen and wrote down eight characters on the small receipt paper from the cash register.
The so-called first step is the hardest. For someone who had never written a novel before, wanting to conceive an ingenious beginning without spending three to five days on it was simply impossible. This was different from frantically making things up, you needed a clever entry point.
Little Gao was conceiving the story like this while making milk tea and humming a song, doing three things at once to her heart’s content.
Just like that until noon, Jiang Qin suddenly brought Xu Yu to the front square to check and verify the accounts of the Xitian milk tea shop.
After all, it was the end of semester. Although Xitian was a business that was done on the side, it was still necessary to have an idea of how much profit it made.
“Xiao Gao, help me bring this to Feng Nanshu when you return to the dorm.”
“What is this? Snacks?”
“?”
Jiang Qin was stunned for a moment, thinking that Xiao Gao had some skills, she could guess so accurately.
At the same time, Gao Wenhui had already secretly opened the black bag, but after taking a look, she was immediately stunned.
Inside were all kinds of socks: thin lace ankle socks, white mid-calf silk stockings, black tights, cotton socks with cute patterns, black fishnet stockings…
All sizes, a total of more than thirty pairs, which made Gao Wenhui’s mind go wild with thoughts.
“You even help Feng Nanshu buy socks, can this still be called friendship? Tell me honestly, those little tigers of hers were also bought by you, right?”
“What do you know.”
Jiang Qin spat at her, thinking that the law stipulates that if you damage someone else’s things, you have to compensate them. Even if it’s your best friend’s things, you can’t welch on it. This is what being a righteous man is!
