Chapter 90: National Day Short Holiday

On a brilliant morning at dawn, the short National Day holiday began.

Early in the morning, Zhou Chao grabbed his luggage and rushed to the airport in a hurry. His home was the furthest from Linchuan, so he was more eager than anyone to go home.

Modern university students are so strange. When filling out applications, they want to go as far away as possible to enjoy freedom in a strange land and let themselves go. But as soon as the holiday comes, they wilt because not only is the journey far, the travel expenses are huge. Faced with this situation, they curse themselves for being idiots without mercy.

The thing about freedom is that you can experience it at a school in the next province, but they insist on crossing half the map to go to a place others are tired of.

People like Zhou Chao scrimp and save on normal days, but as soon as the holiday comes, they spend all their living expenses on plane tickets.

“Brothers, I’m off!”

“Old Zhou, remember to take out the trash!” Cao Guangyu called out while sitting on the bed.

Zhou Chao grumbled, “Fuck, first thing in the morning and you’re already annoying!”

“Then have a safe trip.”

“If it’s too smooth the plane might crash!”

Jiang Qin also got up at this time, slowly getting dressed, slowly opening a packet of yogurt, slowly sipping it, and slowly starting to wash up.

Zhou Chao, with a suitcase in one hand and a trash bag in the other, looked extremely envious.

Brother Jiang, this bastard, you can’t help but admire him. He chose a school close to home which seems boring, but every holiday he’s full of superiority.

“Old Jiang, I’m leaving!” Zhou Chao raised his voice, wanting to get Jiang Qin’s blessing.

Jiang Qin grinned with his toothbrush in his mouth, “Get lost, remember to bring back local specialties or I won’t let you in when you return.”

“One tells me to take out the trash, the other wants specialties, you’re all assholes!”

Zhou Chao cursed as he pulled open the door, dragging his suitcase and trash bag, and walked out puffing and panting.

After a while, Jiang Qin finished washing up and stepped out of the dorm.

His train ticket was for the afternoon. He had plenty of time before noon, so he planned to find the little rich girl for breakfast first, then take her to the general office to get her certificate, go to 208 to arrange holiday tasks, and meet up with Guo Zihang at the train station.

Feng Nanshu wore a very student-like long dress today, revealing a small section of fair jade-like calves, highlighting her rare purity and vitality.

“Jiang Qin, is my boss’s wife certificate ready?”

“I’ll take you to ask after we eat.”

Jiang Qin looked at her dewy face, his fingers twitched, but in the end he resisted the urge to reach out and pinch her.

Damn, young people are really strange. Right after waking up and before going to sleep, they have this inexplicable urge to pinch everything they see. Sooner or later they’ll be done for.

Feng Nanshu said okay, then followed closely behind him to the cafeteria, her skirt swaying with each step, attracting the eyes of countless passersby.

“Little rich girl, when are you going home?”

“I’m leaving at three in the afternoon.” Feng Nanshu said, biting the end of her chopsticks.

“Isn’t Uncle Gong driving you away? Wouldn’t it be better to leave earlier?”

Feng Nanshu looked at him quietly. But you’re leaving at 2:30.

Jiang Qin picked up a piece of beef brisket and passed it to her, “I heard from Uncle Gong that you’re going to Shanghai to see your grandpa over National Day. Who’s grandpa?”

“It’s my dad.” Feng Nanshu opened her little mouth and ate the beef he fed her, her eyes rippling.

“Then why are you studying in Jizhou? The education in Shanghai is much better than Jizhou. You weren’t really kicked out by your family, were you?”

Feng Nanshu’s little spoon paused for a moment, and she spoke in a soft voice, “Because Jizhou is my mom’s hometown.”

“So you won’t go back to Jizhou for the whole National Day?”

“I will. I want to hurry back to hang out with you, but I don’t know when I can return.”

Jiang Qin didn’t continue asking because he could clearly sense the little rich girl’s lack of enthusiasm about going to see her dad. So he fed her twice more in a row, making her happy again.

Then he glanced at the tips of his own chopsticks, and at the poster on the opposite wall which said sharing chopsticks with others is an unsanitary habit and promoted using public chopsticks.

Jiang Qin licked his chopsticks and thought, now they’re clean and hygienic.

Halfway through the meal, Gao Wenhui also came to the cafeteria. After getting her food, she sat down but didn’t ramble on like before, instead staying uncharacteristically quiet.

However, her gaze kept going back and forth between Jiang Qin and Feng Nanshu, full of curiosity.

How did he hold back?

Fan Shuling said Jiang Qin was a scumbag, but she didn’t think so. He was clearly a righteous gentleman who liked to touch feet.

“Gao Wenhui, aren’t you afraid the rice will go up your nose from staring at me so much?” Jiang Qin glanced at her.

The smile on Gao Wenhui’s face gradually disappeared, “I knew it, being a third wheel never ends well!”

After breakfast, Jiang Qin took the little rich girl to the entrepreneurship base to get her certificate, but it ended in disaster.

Because Cao Xinyue said there was a problem with the form filled out last time, she had Feng Nanshu stay behind to fill it out again.

“Junior, you can’t write that the startup funds are from Jiang Qin, and the startup purpose can’t be to be Jiang Qin’s boss’s wife.”

“…”

Feng Nanshu’s eyelashes trembled slightly, the joy Jiang Qin had fed her instantly vanishing.

At the same time, Jiang Qin went to 208 and called a meeting with everyone.

The campus belle contest was now halfway through and the popularity was about at its peak. Plus with the National Day holiday, most students would leave the school, so the follow-up traffic was bound to go downhill.

So for these seven days, the entire project team had only one task – maintaining the traffic.

The content team needed to continue supplying posts to divert the contest traffic to the confession wall, anonymous tree hole and other interest sections to convert it.

When the National Day holiday ended, the final campus belle results would be announced, which would bring another small traffic peak.

But the retention rate after the small peak was still unknown, so they had to prepare for two possibilities.

One was to prepare another event when the traffic continued to decline, the other was to continue negotiating business partnerships to expand to the whole university town direction if the retention rate was high enough.

“Boss, we’re a bit short-handed on our side.”

Wei Lanlan raised her hand to speak. Because there were more and more merchants to negotiate with now, there were only her and Tan Qing in the external market team, and they were really too busy to handle it all.

“Then we’ll recruit more people when we get back. The university has no shortage of people. It’s best to recruit some with electric scooters who can travel far.”

After finishing, Jiang Qin announced the end of the meeting and noticed Su Nai staring at him, “Boss, your membership expired.”

“When did it expire?”

“Last night.”

“Do you check every day? You know right after it expires?” Jiang Qin looked disdainful.

Dong Wenhao looked at Su Nai curiously, “What membership expired?”

“Nothing, just membership for website building videos.” Su Nai pushed up his glasses.

“Your tech team is too hardworking. Coding during the day and having to watch videos to study at night?”

Su Nai and Jiang Qin chuckled in unison, showcasing their ability to smile without meaning it, leaving Dong Wenhao stunned and thinking what did I say wrong again?

After the meeting, Jiang Qin went downstairs from the second floor, planning to go to the general office to find the little rich girl. But he found her standing by the window, holding an A4 sized certificate, looking cold and dazed.

“Got the certificate?”

“Wrong one, not the boss’s wife certificate, it’s a self-employment certificate.”

Boss’s wife certificate, self-employment certificate, other than “certificate” not a single word was the same. Feng Nanshu was visibly unhappy.

Her unhappiness had quite an oppressive feeling with her aloof expression.

“It’s not wrong, this is the internship period.”

“?”

Jiang Qin took the entrepreneurship certificate and glanced at it, “It’s like making friends. You have to reach a certain point to become good friends, like the two of us.”

Feng Nanshu looked at him expressionlessly, thinking you can just treat me like an idiot.
