Reborn: I'll Never Fail My Childhood Sweetheart Again-Chapter 171 - 86: Qin Shiqing Cried—We’re Really Not Siblings! (Part 3)

This isn't just flattering; Su Zelin is genuinely interested in digital technology. Besides, he had experience in the computer business in his past life, so assembling a computer isn't a challenge for him.

Watching the layabout skillfully assemble all the components, it wasn't long before a complete computer appeared in front of them. Xiao Yue and the other girls were all stunned.

This guy really has a knack for it!

Only Yan Qiuwen wasn't surprised in the slightest. Su Zelin was always this kind of special genius; no matter what he tinkered with, he could master it. However, he never dedicated substantial energy to any one field, making it hard to reach the pinnacle.

A few computers were assembled, and it was already past eleven o'clock.

"Brother Zelin, the delivery guy stepped out. He'll probably be back in half an hour. If you guys are busy, you could head back first. When my guy returns, I'll get him to deliver to your friend?"

"Sure!"

Su Zelin trusted Brother Xiao Yang's character, and besides, he had the receipt in hand.

Before leaving, he pulled Yang Fen aside: "Brother Xiao Yang, remember the partnership I mentioned last time? I'm planning to open a digital store at the finance college. It should be up and running soon. If you have time, you can come over and check it out. We might have a chance to make money together."

"You're opening a store too?"

Brother Xiao Yang was slightly surprised.

He hesitated for a moment but decided to speak honestly: "Bro, opening a store at this time is pretty smart. There's usually a small spike in demand around New Year's. But to be blunt, the computer business in college isn't easy. Students prefer going to the computer mall since everything is in stock and they have more choices. Plus, they think the on-campus shops are more expensive and lack after-sales support. That's why it's rare for college computer shops to succeed!"

"Haha, I'm aware of all that!"

Su Zelin smiled slightly, "But I'm confident that I can make this store work. When we open, if you have time, come by the finance college, have a look, and let's see if there are any opportunities for collaboration."

"Sure, bro, if I can make time, I'll definitely come!"

Brother Xiao Yang agreed readily. After all, he had given his advice, and if the other party insisted on moving forward, he didn't have the right to stop him. However, seeing Su Zelin's confident demeanor, Brother Xiao Yang became a bit intrigued by the computer shop he was planning.

The two had known each other for a limited time, having only met twice. But from their previous conversations about building computers, Brother Xiao Yang realized this university student wasn't just good at assembling computers; he also had unique insights into the future of the computer industry and various brands. He probably wasn't just some blindly confident rich kid.

Since he's confident in his on-campus business, the computer shop he's opening at the finance college must have something different.

If it doesn't work out, checking it out would only cost him some time, but it would at least establish a connection.

But if it does succeed, there's another moneymaking opportunity, so why not?

The group exited the computer mall and took a bus back to Zhejiang University.

To express their gratitude for Su Zelin taking time out over the weekend to help assemble computers, a few girls invited him for a meal. They went to a restaurant in the food street outside the college and had a Mountain City hotpot.

The girls from Qin Shiqing's dorm could handle spicy food, and Su Zelin had a strong stomach, so he could keep up—no need for a trip to the gastroenterologist because of a little spice.

A Mountain City hotpot in winter is quite the indulgence, very satisfying. They were about done eating when Su Zelin's phone rang. It was the delivery person under Brother Xiao Yang, saying the three computers were on their way and should arrive at Zhejiang University in about fifteen minutes.

So, the group paid the bill and left the restaurant, heading back to the girls' dormitory to wait.

Many of the girls at Zhejiang University had bought their computers from Brother Xiao Yang's store, so the delivery guy was familiar with the place and didn't need directions.

After waiting for a while, the pickup truck appeared, with only one person in it.

Zhejiang University's girls' dorm doesn't allow male visitors, not even for assembling computers, so deliveries are usually made to the downstairs area—one delivery guy is enough.

Although the girls could carry the computers to their dorms, it would be quite a hassle. Back then, CRT monitors were still the mainstream, unlike the sleek and light LCDs of later years. It was challenging for the girls to carry them, which was one reason Su Zelin went to Zhejiang University with them—taking them all the way to their destination.

Su Zelin dragged his childhood friend to the dorm's guardroom and exclaimed, "Sister, I'm Qin Shiqing's brother. My dad asked me to bring her a new computer today and insisted I help carry it up to her dorm, or he'd break my legs. Could you please make an exception?"

This "Sister" trick always worked wonders with cafeteria ladies and dorm supervisors alike; basically guaranteed to work with the aunties.

The dorm supervisor was quite pleased to hear this, as the young man was handsome and the girl standing beside him did indeed resemble him, suggesting they were siblings. She waved her hand, "Alright then, but you need to come back down quickly after setting up the computer. You can't linger too long in the girls' dormitory!"

"Thank you, sister, I knew right away you were a good person—a living bodhisattva!"

"This young man can really talk!"

The dorm supervisor was thoroughly amused by the layabout, her face full of wrinkles almost blooming with joy.

In all her time as a dorm supervisor, it was the first time she'd been addressed as "sister" by a college student while being called a good person. Others usually called her a witch behind her back.

Xiao Yue and the other girls were dumbfounded witnessing this.
