Chapter 35: Some Beautiful Pictures

The six people remaining in Nanshan Restaurant were all silent.

Hong Yan was thinking about her future relationship with Chu Siqi while Chu Siqi was purely angry and Wang Huiru was contemplating the best solution.

Cao Guangyu, Zhou Chao and Ren Ziqiang were all regretting why they didn’t leave with Jiang Qin earlier.

Three little chicks without even girlfriends were affected by the warzone. They didn’t even dare to breathe heavily now frantically looking for excuses to leave.

At the same time, Jiang Qin had already returned from the pedestrian street to the main campus arriving at the university library.

Again, romance wasn’t the main theme of his life, making money was.

There were many students in Linchuan University’s Computer Science department doing freelance work. Building websites and writing window programs was a piece of cake for them. Jiang Qin posted a thread on the university forum last night looking for someone to build a site and received a private message from an ID named Naixue.

The two had agreed to meet today but an unexpected encounter nearly delayed the important matter.

Do you think women delaying the pursuit of money is the truth?

“It’s so hot. Let me buy an ice cream to eat and also cool my blood pressure.”

Jiang Qin picked a small pudding from the fridge in the school supermarket licking it as he walked towards the library.

Linchuan University’s library was a huge U-shaped building with 8 floors. The lower 6 floors were public reading areas while the top 2 floors were closed archives.

The two had agreed to meet on the 3rd floor so Jiang Qin went straight to the elevator upon entering.

Arriving inside the library, the indoor AC instantly hit his face. After walking in the sun for so long, getting a shock like this was a bit hard to take.

Jiang Qin rested a bit at the entrance his gaze slipping down the corridor.

Linchuan University was indeed worthy of being a 985 university. Even on the second day of school, the library was packed with people, the sound of flipping pages was constant and one could even smell the fragrance of ink, though it was unknown if that was just psychological, but the scent was indeed pleasant.

After observing for a while, Jiang Qin sighed. Damn, this is what university should be like. Where the hell are people suppressing themselves to fall in love all day.

After recovering, Jiang Qin followed the other party’s information to the reading room in the Social Sciences section on the 3rd floor finding that Naixue who took the order.

That’s right, Naixue was a senior sister.

A senior sister wearing a black dress, tied in two braids, wearing large black-framed glasses. Although she looked quite petite, her school badge was sky blue, clearly not belonging to a freshman.

“Hello, my name is Su Nai, Computer Science department, currently a junior. Should I call you senior brother or junior brother?”

Jiang Qin sat on the chair thinking for a bit before speaking, “My surname is Jiang from the School of Finance. You can call me senior brother.”

Su Nai lightly nodded without any doubt, “Senior brother, I’ve seen your website requirements. I can help you do it.”

“About how long will it take?”

“Three days.”

Jiang Qin didn’t understand the website building process but subconsciously felt it wasn’t enough, “Three days, are you sure? I’m actually not in a hurry. The most important thing is for the effect to be good.”

Su Nai pushed her glasses with an otaku aura, “Trust me, three days is enough but subsequent multiple maintenance may be required.”

“Just build the site first. If the effect is good, the maintenance work can also be handed to you.”

“Thank you senior brother. Then let’s talk about the details. There are some places I don’t quite understand. I want to hear your explanation.”

Su Nai took out her laptop placing it on the table. The screen showed the post Jiang Qin wrote last night, “I can understand popup ads but what do you mean by beauty picture popup ads?”

Jiang Qin coughed glancing around then lowered his voice, “They’re some eye-catching picture ads, you know? Those kinds with some exposed older sisters to increase the click-through rate.”

“…”

“Still don’t understand?”

“I get it. You mean those naughty pictures?”

Jiang Qin was a bit surprised widening his eyes, “Su Nai, your summarization ability is quite strong.”

Su Nai pursed her lips glancing at Jiang Qin, “Senior brother, are you really a decent person?”

“Of course I’m a decent person.”

“But what you described is inappropriate content. If reported, the site could be shut down.”

Su Nai kindly advised hoping this senior brother Jiang could give up this idea.

“Su Nai, I hope you remember, technology is innocent!”

“Alright, if something happens, it has nothing to do with me.”

“I have it under control. You make it first and try. If it doesn’t work, we’ll change it.”

In 2008, internet regulation wasn’t that strong. Otherwise pirated sites like Movie Heaven couldn’t be so popular. Jiang Qin didn’t have the ability to spread popup ads across the entire internet so the possibility of being reported wasn’t very high.

Besides, a domain name didn’t cost much. If one didn’t work, change to another. Something will work out eventually.

Su Nai fell into silence lowering her head without speaking. Jiang Qin thought she had some mental reservations feeling that doing this kind of thing was insulting her talent so he coaxed and persuaded for a long time. But this senior sister didn’t mean that at all. What she said next actually stunned Jiang Qin.

“I…haven’t seen that kind of picture before. Senior brother, do you have a resource?”

The corner of Jiang Qin’s mouth twitched. He then took her computer entering a string of URLs in the browser.

In a 985 university, in the solemn and sacred library, two people squeezed in the corner staring at the screen in silence looking at beautiful pictures for half an hour like this.

By the end, Su Nai’s breathing had obviously thickened a bit. Even as a tech otaku, she now clearly understood the reason these pictures could attract click-through rates.

“I think I need five days to build the site.”

Jiang Qin was slightly stunned, “Oh? Why?”

Su Nai pushed her glasses, “Looking at this kind of thing will reduce work efficiency.”

“I understand this. I used to be like this too but I think you should still focus on work. It’s best to look at this kind of thing less.”

“I’ll restrain myself senior brother but you should be clear this kind of new world indeed has a big impact on an otaku girl like me. Five days, okay?”

“Fine, then five days it is but it can’t be later.”

Su Nai nodded then moved the mouse to the upper right corner, “Here…seems to also have a video section?”

Jiang Qin immediately closed the computer screen looking at Su Nai with a serious gaze, “Junior sister, once this gate is opened, it won’t just be a matter of five days. I hope you’re prudent.”

“Then I won’t look.” Su Nai said pursing her lips.

Jiang Qin nodded with appreciation, “That’s good. Work hard. Don’t go looking at inappropriate things.”

“Okay, I’ll give you a satisfactory website. Thank you senior brother for trusting me.”

“No problem. Taking care of junior sisters is what should be done.”

After confirming all the details of the site building, Jiang Qin left the library with peace of mind while Su Nai hesitated for 3 and 1/3 seconds after opening the computer falling into deep thought looking at that video section.
