  Chapter 182: Is the Little Rich Lady Pretending to be Dumb?

  TL: Etude

  Jiang Qin genuinely had no time to himself with matters of love and affe. At most, he would offer a piece of advice, indifferent to whether it was heeded or not. After that, he would quickly cast aside all the events of the evening from his mind.

  The m, at the Xi Tian Milk Tea Shop.

  After undergoing systematic training, Student Gao officially started w. Her clumsy handling of the various tasks terrified the little rich dy, who kept trying to hide in Jiang Qin’s arms.

  “Right, that’s it, beautifully done. Destroy my milk tea mae, spare no one!”

  Jiang Qin, sitting in front of the bar, was full of sful irony.

  “But, this is exactly what I did yesterday, wasn’t it?!” Gao Wenhui was fused, uo pinpoint where she went wrong.

  “Elder sister, ’t you at least find a cup to catch it? Look, it’s about to overflow!”

  “ht.”

  Jiang Qin, feeling utterly helpless, held his forehead: “No worries, just go ahead boldly. The worst-case sario, you work off your debt as a full-time nanny at my house.”

  Feng Nanshu puffed her cheeks and looked at him: “Then Wenhui py with me every day.”

  “?”

  Moments ter, the current store manager Hu Xin hurried over, resolved the chaotic se, and ed the operating table with a cloth. She then demonstrated the operation process to Gao Wenhui again, including the use of various maes.

  “So, I had uood it in my mind, but my hands hadn’t caught up,” Gao Wenhui quickly found an excuse to cover her embarrassment.

  Jiang Qin took a deep breath, thinking to himself that Student Gao sometimes had even less shame than him: “Our milk tea branch is already in the works. Hu Xin will definitely be sent there. You o familiarize yourself with the processes quickly.”

  “The milk tea shops he Uy of Sce of Teology and the Normal Uy? When will they open?”

  “It’s not certai, but probably after the winter break,” Jiang Qin said, twirling a straw in his hand.

  After hearing this, Gao Wenhui was disdainful: “That long? With my intelligence, how could I not learn it?”

  “Think you’re very smart, do you? Alright, let me test you with a riddle!”

  Gao Wenhui immediately sat up straight: “Bring it on, I refuse to be beaten.”

  Jiang Qin coughed: “Ay bus departs from the starting station. At the sed stop, 5 get on, then 3 get off and 4 get on, then 6 off and 3 on, then 2 off and 1 on, then 1 off and 3 on. Now, tell me…”

  “Hold on!”

  Gao Wenhui was flustered: “Don’t speak so fast, I haven’t even remembered the questio.”

  Jiang Qin grinned: “That’s irrelevant to the question. I just want to ask you, what color is the bus?”

  “You… you’re talking nonsense. You never mentiohe color.”

  “Alright, alright, no more teasing. How many stops did the bus make?”

  Gao Wenhui, baffled for a sed, gave up: “What does this have to do with intellige’s just a brain teaser. I was only ting the number of people. Who listens carefully to how many stops you mentioned? And your random question about the ade me fet the numbers!”

  Jiang Qin’s lips curled into a cold smile: “Do you think making milk tea retes to intellige’s all about memory. If you ’t even remember the steps, you’re definitely doomed.”

  “It stopped at 5 stations,” Feng Nanshu said coldly.

  Jiang Qin looked at the little rich dy in surprise: “Then do you know hoeople are left on the bus?”

  “There are 4 people left.”

  “Really? You’re not fooling me, are you?” Jiang Qin himself didn’t know.

  Feng Nanshu nodded early: “Jiang Qin, I will never lie to you.”

  Jiang Qin was incredulous: “When have you not lied to me? Sometimes I even think you’re pretending to be dumb, but I have no evidence.”

  “I’m not, I really am that dumb,” Feng Nanshu said seriously.

  “Ts, ts, ts.”

  Gao Wenhui, resting her in her hand, made strange sounds with her mouth, her face full of enjoyment.

  Jiang Qin’s face darkened as he looked at Gao Wenhui with fusion. “What’s there to click about?”

  “You two just o sit together, and it’s perfect for shipping,” Gao Wenhui said, pletely absorbed in her fantasies.

  “You have the o say that? You’ve been here an hour and haven’t even made half a ilk tea. You still have the cheek to eat sweets. Go practice!”

  “Fine, I’ll practice!”

  Gao Wenhui was infuriated but couldn’t find a reason tue back.

  This was Nanshu’s business, and she didn’t want to mess it up. So, she put down the cloth ahrough the process and operations again with Hu Xin.

  Hu Xihat Gao Wenhui was the boss’s close friend, a kind of royalty, so she taught with extra care.

  She wasn’t afraid of losing her position as store manager sihe milk tea shop job was just a part-time gig for her.

  Moreover, the boss had said that she would be needed as a training instructor for the new branches, following Fang Xiaoxuan around and earning much more than she currently did.

  Meanwhile, Jiang Qin’s phone began to vibrate incessantly in his pocket, buzzing with calls.

  The first call was from Lai qing, rep on the group buying initiative’s unch at the Uy of Sce of Teology.

  “Boss, our first-day promotion is plete. We had over six thousand orders, and the total revenue for the day is still being tallied.”

  “Good job. Just looking at the first-day orders, the sales at the Uy of Sce of Teology have already surpassed those at Lin Uy. Did you enter any troubles?”

  “So far, everything’s smooth. We’ve already put up banners announg our first-day sales of 60,000. However, Directors Zhang and Hu did e by to take a look.”

  “Let them look. The more they see, the more reassured they’ll be. Oh, and remember to distribute the red packets to the delivery staff.”

  “They’ve already been distributed. Everyone’s very motivated.”

  After hanging up, Jiang Qin stretched zily, his worries gradually subsiding.

  The sed stop of the group buying was crucial, as operating outside and ihe campus differed signifitly. If they wao expand to the Uy of Sce of Teology and the Normal Uy, the results at the Uy of Sce of Teology had to be impressive.

  So far, the market performahere was very promising. At least with these results, they could approach the other uies, coupled with the powerful tool of work-study programs, leaving the school authorities with no reason to refuse.

  “Awesome, I really am a genius.”

  The sed call was from Lu Xuemei, who reported that the first billboard was ready, but the sed one, which required acryliels, might be deyed.

  “Pay more if needed. Ask who do it, and if they ’t, find someone else.”

  Lu Xuemei took a deep breath. “Boss, you’re really vish.”

  Jiang Qin spoke expressionlessly: “At this stage, it’s not about what we’re spending but what we’re gaining.”

  “Uood, I’ll pay more.”

  The third call was from He Yijun of Wanzhong Mall, regarding the New Year’s gathering of the Lin Business Association.

  He Manqi, whom Jiang Qin had disciplined, had bee obedient, returning to csses and no lhting with cssmates. He Yijun was grateful.

  So, he definitely wao hahe matter entrusted by Jiang Qin. In fact, Jiang Qin had been waiting for this call.

  “President Jiang, I’ve arranged everything for the gathering. Just e with me tomorrow night.”

  Jiang Qin adjusted his pants, stepping on a stool. “Thanks for your help, President He.”

  He Yijun pondered for a while: “I know you’re probably looking for new partners. I don’t uand your specifis, but I have to say something upfront.”

  “Go ahead.”

  “People in business often haven’t had much education. They be temperamental and love to show off, especially in such settings. They be arrogant. You’re young and spirited, so try to listen more and talk less when you’re in there.”

  Jiang Qin touched his nose. “Presidehere shouldn’t be a problem if I ask someone for a business card, right?”

  He Yijun sighed. “It’s best not to. In these club social settings, there’s a lot of self-i. Normally, you have to offer your card first. If they think it’s worth it, they’ll give you theirs. Otherwise, they probably won’t bother with you.”

  “There’s such a rule? Seems like the smell of money isn’t alleasant.”

  “After all that, do you still think it’s necessary to go? You don’t have to force yourself if you don’t want to.”

  Just as Jiang Qin was about to respond, he suddenly saw a milk tea straw being offered to his mouth. Turning his head, he saw Feng Nanshu, her face exuding cool elegance, holding out a ilk tea for him to drink.

  The sunlight cascaded down from the sky, illuminating her beautiful eyes and delicately curled eyeshes, making her look incredibly charming.

  Jiang Qin took a sip. “President He, I definitely o attend this gathering.”

  He Yijun hummed in response: “Alright then, tomorrow at 7 p.m., I’ll wait for you in the lobby of Longkai Iional Hotel. You’d better wear a suit and tie.”

  “Uood. Jizhou’s Wu Yanzu (Daniel Wu), Longkai is open for business!”

  He Yijun was slightly fused: “What’s ‘chi pe without eyeballs’?” (just ighis part)

  Jiang Qin chuckled: “You misheard, President He. I was referring to a term from eics. I’m currently iudy room, preparing for my finals. I’m aiming to be the top student in my entire program.”

  “Truly a star student. Well, then, tih your studies. I won’t disturb you further.”

  Jiang Qin waited for the other party to hang up, then put his phone ba his pocket, gazing at the brilliant m sun and yawning.

  The warmth of the winter sun had a unique fentle and warm on the skin.

  The little rich dy sat quietly beside him, her face cold, resembling an unapproachable top-css beauty. Every minute, she would offer him the milk tea again.

  “I don’t want any more. It’s too sweet.”

  “Drink it.”

  Jiang Qin took a deep breath and bit the straw ft.

  Seeing this, the little rich dy was momentarily dumbfounded, her breath turning into wisps of white vapor.

  “Wenhui, stop shipping them. The water is overflowing…”

  “Oh, sorry, I just ’t help myself. Jiang Qin says this is called ‘feeding dog food.'”

  “…”

  Meanwhile, iop-floor office of Wanzhong Mall, He Yijun put down the phone, filled with fusion.

  Not allowed to ask for business cards, observe more than speak – what’s the point of such meaningless socializing?

  And Jiang Qin is actually willing to go?

  Could it be that he’s really going just to experiehe atmosphere?
