Forcing Me to Be Reborn?!-Chapter 115 - 100: You are the Ace [Vote for monthly pass!]

Chapter 115: Chapter 100: You are the Ace [Vote for monthly pass!]

At “Youu Come to Play”‘s storefront, Cheng Zhu just thought it would be fun to ask Shen Qingning if Pei Yan was her pursuer.

Unexpectedly, Lin Lu cut in, “I don’t really like this person. The way he talks and the vibe he gives off make me uncomfortable.”

Upon hearing this, Shen Qingning also nodded slightly.

See, in the realm of romance, a girl’s close friends can always influence her indirectly.

If her close friends don’t like you, that really is a terrifying thing.

Cheng Zhu knew this all too well.

So, the best strategy was to win over the close friend as well.

“Shen Qingning is Lin Lu’s close friend, and Lin Lu is Shen Qingning’s close friend; ah well, I can’t help it.”

After a while, the three of them entered the claw machine arcade together.

“When will the dolls arrive, Cheng Zhu?” Lin Lu asked.

“They’ll start arriving tomorrow, and then I’ll pick an auspicious day to officially open,” he replied.

“You even pick a day? I never knew you were superstitious!” Lin Lu chuckled.

“You wouldn’t understand,” Cheng Zhu waved his hand, “Business people like to seek good fortune.”

I, damn it, was even forced to be reborn, so I definitely have to believe in it a bit!

“So, do you need help arranging the dolls tomorrow?” Lin Lu knew it would surely be busy.

“That’s going to be hard work,” Cheng Zhu said. “If you find it fun, you can come and play for a while. You don’t need to worry about the dirty and tiring work; I have roommates.”

These three computer guys clearly lack exercise; I’ll get all of them to come work tomorrow.

That’s the benefit of opening a shop related to women’s interests.

Not to mention calling this cheeky dog to help; even if they weren’t paid to work in the shop, they’d probably be enthusiastic to work for a few days.

Of course, they could only last a few days because they would quickly realize that no matter how many girls there were here, it ultimately had nothing to do with them.

“So, before they realize this, I might as well make good use of them,” Cheng Zhu thought to himself.

…

…

On the other side, “Elegant Weirdo” Pei Yan, took a cab to the nearby mall.

He had a small dinner party today.

When he reached the Korean restaurant in the mall, the two dinner companions had already arrived, Xu Shao and Zhang Qiqi.

“Little Pei, you’re always the last to show up for meals, huh?” Xu Shao raised his eyes and couldn’t help but tease.

He had already graduated from Technology University, but during his time there, he had also joined the student council and was Pei Yan’s leader.

Thus, Pei Yan was both his junior and his right-hand man during his time at the student council.

That’s why he always called him Little Pei.

Of course, that’s not how Pei Yan saw it.

“You only made it to minister, but now I’m the Vice Chairman of the student council,” Pei Yan felt that this showed he was clearly more capable than Xu Shao.

The reason the three were eating together was that Xu Shao was pursuing Zhang Qiqi, and Pei Yan was helping to connect them.

Zhang Qiqi, being an internet-famous school beauty, loved to participate in various campus and off-campus events.

So, as Vice Chairman of the student council, Pei Yan inevitably met her often.

Sometimes, he would specifically ask her for help.

One thing led to another, and the two became quite familiar.

Pei Yan’s affection for Shen Qingning was not a secret at school, and he openly admitted it.

In Vice Chairman Pei’s view, liking someone meant openly admitting it, as it seemed more handsome and upright.

This made Zhang Qiqi think about whether to lure him away from pursuing Shen Qingning and make him one of her catches in her pond.

When she watched “The Return of the Condor Heroes,” she thought, “If I were Li Muchou, since I dislike Little Dragon Girl so much, why not steal Yang Guo away!”

Even if Miss Shen doesn’t like Pei Yan, if someone who originally pursued you suddenly falls head over heels for me, wouldn’t it be interesting if it spread around the school?

But later, she found Pei Yan quite annoying. He was always preachy, loved to talk about grand principles, and often brought up values.

So, when he introduced Xu Shao to her, she decisively chose Xu Shao, who was a better overall catch.

Annoying Pei Yan, who was obsessed with values, was better left to bother Shen Qingning.

At that moment, Pei Yan took his seat next to Xu Shao and explained why he was late: “I ran into junior Shen Qingning on the way here, so I got delayed.”

“Huh? You ran into her? Is she also in the mall?” Zhang Qiqi immediately perked up.

“No, I met her outside the campus, at a small video game arcade,” Pei Yan answered.

Zhang Qiqi and Xu Shao glanced at each other. As soon as he mentioned the small video game arcade, they knew it was Cheng Zhu’s place.

However, Zhang Qiqi’s focus was all on Cheng Zhu, while Xu Shao once again sighed, attempting to stir Zhang Qiqi’s memories.

“Little Pei, you remember, right? The first time QiQi and I had a meal was at that sushi restaurant, and you were there too.”

“That was my choice, of course I remember,” Pei Yan laughed.

“So I have quite a fondness for that sushi restaurant, it holds a lot of memories for me. I never imagined it would end up becoming a video game arcade; it’s really absurd.”

“And this owner of the arcade, both QiQi and I don’t really like him,” Xu Shao said.

Zhang Qiqi: “…”

Why am I suddenly being represented again?

She just smiled on the side and kept silent.

Pei Yan perked up when he heard that.

Oh ho, teammates, huh!

“Do you know that Cheng Zhu?” he asked.

“We don’t know him, just seen him a few times,” Xu Shao shook his head. “But I didn’t get a good vibe from him.”

He continued, “You know, that video game arcade outside the school, I even invested fifty thousand in it at the time, and it ended very unpleasantly.”

“Yeah, that incident actually spread quite widely around the school,” Pei Yan nodded.

“Right, so I don’t know what he’s thinking, daring to open an arcade right at the school gate. Our arcade back then was twice the size, the total investment much larger, plus each of us had more acquaintances and connections at school, yet we couldn’t make it work,” Xu Shao said as he grilled meat for Zhang Qiqi. He ate the more burnt pieces himself and used tongs to give Zhang Qiqi the better-cooked pieces.

As for the most burnt or worst-looking pieces, they ended up with Pei Yan.

He didn’t even bother to grill, so he only deserved the worst!

Actually, Pei Yan wasn’t unwilling to grill; it’s just that Xu Shao insisted on doing it himself for Zhang Qiqi.

“I don’t think his store will last very long,” Pei Yan said.

Xu Shao nodded and smiled, “When his shop fails and he’s desperate to get rid of it, I’ll rent that spot cheaply.”

Then, he turned to Zhang Qiqi, “QiQi, I’ll open a Japanese restaurant for you by then? Or shall I start the sushi restaurant again? You decide what to open, I still have quite a fondness for that location.”

“Let’s see when the time comes, I’ll think about it,” Zhang Qiqi replied with a smile.

If there actually comes a time, she would definitely say publicly, “This Xu Shao says he wants to open a store off-campus for me, asking me to think about what to open. How would I know? It’s so annoying.”

For Zhang Qiqi, she didn’t care what Xu Shao eventually opened.

As for the sushi restaurant, I have no shared memories or feelings about it.

She just hoped that the fact that an admirer was opening a store off-campus for her would become the talk of the town, making her, the school beauty, a legend at the school.

Speaking of which, while Zhang Qiqi was very interested in Cheng Zhu, she also felt that this arcade definitely wouldn’t make it.

“Who knows, maybe one day it really will be taken over cheaply by Xu Shao?” she thought.

Pei Yan grabbed a piece of seafood scallion pancake for himself, picked out the onions, and said: “I’m starting to feel sorry for this junior. Not only is his investment going down the drain, but at that time, he will probably have to contribute to our school’s External Relations Department.”

Xu Shao couldn’t help but laugh.

“Are you saying to let those guys from the External Relations Department go find him for sponsorship?”

The university’s External Relations Department had an important job: to try to get sponsorships and secure funds from outside to support the student council’s various activities.

“That’s how it should be. If you’re making money off our students outside the school, you should provide some funding for the activities organized by our student council, right?” Pei Yan, as the Vice Chairman of the student council, felt this was perfectly reasonable.

If they don’t sponsor, then that’s not right. People in the department often bad-mouth those businesses behind their backs.

And to be frank, in the minds of the student council and the External Relations Department, university students like Cheng Zhu who open stores off-campus are really like fat sheep.

These people often fit the profile of being young, inexperienced, especially gullible, and vain.

Some off-campus businesses, like tough mutton, if you go to them looking for sponsorship every now and then, will completely ignore you. They might even show you a foul face or chase you away.

But with stores opened by students from our own university, it’s often easy to get money.

Just hanging a banner at an event or having the host briefly advertise the store would suffice to handle the sponsorship.

—It’s always easier to scam those you know!

Besides, among this batch of External Relations Department members, there were several shameless tough nuts.

These people aren’t afraid of rejection.

You harshly reject me? No problem! I’ll dare to come again next time!

Speaking of which, every dog that gets kicked around in relationships actually has the potential to join the External Relations Department.

Compared to those ultimate bootlickers, the work of the External Relations Department is nothing!

At that moment, both Xu Shao опубликованныйt Pei Yan unanimously agreed that they should let the External Relations Department scoop as much as possible from him as soon as possible.

They figured his small video game arcade would soon fail, and these few months should be seized to make him bleed a bit more.

At this moment, Pei Yan suddenly thought of something, smiled at Zhang Qiqi, and said:

“Right, I just remembered, our Zhang School Beauty is practically the ace of our school’s External Relations Department!”
