Chapter 557: Chapter 555: He Really Did It

"How did you all find out about this?" someone asked curiously.

"That gorgeous sophomore, Cai Keke, is doing a special livestream from Dorm 303. She’s giving a detailed showcase of all sorts of products, and it’s a real feast for the eyes. What’s even more surprising is that she’s offering a delivery service. You just place an order with her, and someone brings the goods right to your dorm. That kind of convenience is a real game-changer."

Upon hearing this, everyone was astonished. "A service like that is simply incredible!"

"Well, what are we waiting for? We’d better hurry and grab the deals before all the good stuff is snatched up by someone else."

"Exactly! Let’s get a move on and see what’s worth buying."

In no time, Entrepreneurship Center 303 was swarming with a bustling, lively crowd. Advertising slogans were plastered everywhere, becoming a unique feature of the campus scenery.

The other entrepreneurship centers couldn’t help but look on with envy. "I can’t believe it. Xue Yang actually pulled it off."

Opening a supermarket on campus wasn’t a new idea, but most past attempts had failed, some with disastrous results. Even the ones that managed to survive were just barely scraping by, eventually passing the burden on to the next class of underclassmen upon graduation.

When Xue Yang had first announced he was going to open a supermarket, those around him couldn’t help but snicker. This kid, who’d been thriving with his gaming company since his first year... We thought he had some unique ambition and strategy, but in the end, he fell for the old supermarket cliché.

"These prices are so reasonable, how could you not be tempted? I need to go see if there’s anything good worth grabbing."

"Who cares if opening a supermarket is a traditional business model? A price advantage is the key to attracting customers."

"If the price is right, almost no one can resist."

"After all, practically everyone loves to find a good deal and save a little money."

"Then I’m going to check it out, too! I’ll see what kind of quality, low-cost treasures I can find. I heard Xue Yang’s grand opening has a huge variety of high-quality products at especially great prices. How could I miss an opportunity like this?"

"Wait for me, let’s go together!" Friends nearby were also drawn in by the tempting news, eager to go along. Full of excitement, the group of them set off for Entrepreneurship Center 303.

In the end, only Zheng Yishan from Entrepreneurship Center 302, a senior who had clashed with Xue Yang before, remained behind, debating whether or not to go.

Xue Yang had Wei Shuyu place a carefully designed advertising sign next to Center 302.

Wei Shuyu hesitated, saying, "President, I heard that Senior Zheng Yishan has a grudge against us. Is doing this now really appropriate?"

Xue Yang smiled confidently. "Just go and put it there. If any problems come up, I’ll handle them myself."

Seeing his confidence, Wei Shuyu stopped worrying. She picked up the advertising sign and walked straight toward 302. She had planned to set it down quietly and leave, but her plan was foiled when she saw Zheng Yishan standing right in the doorway.

"Senior, it looks like you haven’t been using this spot much lately. Could we possibly borrow it for an advertising sign?" Wei Shuyu asked politely.

Good grief, President. He knows they have bad blood, yet he’s being so blatant about this. Isn’t he just asking for trouble?

Zheng Yishan’s brow furrowed in displeasure. "Who told you we’re not using it?"

His retort, however, lacked conviction, as he hadn’t used the space in a very long time.

Wei Shuyu pressed on, unfazed. "Senior, it’s just temporary. We’ll take it down in a couple of days. We’re all classmates and neighbors; surely you won’t refuse such a small favor, right?"

Zheng Yishan was silent for a moment before finally sighing in resignation. He nodded, giving his tacit approval. 𝘧𝘳𝘦ℯ𝓌𝘦𝒷𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝓁.𝒸𝘰𝓂

Wei Shuyu quietly let out a breath of relief. She quickly set down the sign, gave Zheng Yishan another slight nod, and said, "Senior, feel free to come have a look when you’re free. We have all sorts of high-quality, affordable items. I’m sure there’s something you’ll need."

With that, she returned to 303.

"Boss, it’s done."

"Nice work."

After reporting to Xue Yang, Wei Shuyu dove back into the bustling activity.

Inside the noisy Entrepreneurship Center 303, two girls—Liu Shiqi and Cao Xinrou—slipped quietly into the throng, their movements somewhat furtive.

"Shiqi, do we really need to go on such a crazy shopping spree?" Cao Xinrou whispered, a hint of hesitation in her eyes.

She couldn’t shake the feeling that Xiao Xi didn’t really need to go to such lengths. The bustling scene before them was proof enough that Xue Yang’s supermarket wasn’t lacking for customers.

"Just buy the stuff. It’s not our money, anyway," Liu Shiqi replied nonchalantly.

"But..." Cao Xinrou was still hesitant.

"Oh, stop with the ’buts’," Liu Shiqi interrupted. "Besides, the money will just end up back in Xue Yang’s hands. It’s just moving from one pocket to another. It won’t make a difference."

Liu Shiqi’s explanation cleared Cao Xinrou’s doubts. She nodded and joined the frenzied shopping spree.

That evening, Xue Yang returned home to find it piled high with goods, all of them still bearing Yonghui Supermarket labels.

He was a bit baffled. I’m out here working my tail off, and Xiao Naimao went and bought all this stuff behind my back.

He cleared his throat and gently remarked, "You know, you really didn’t need to buy all this."

"But I really wanted to help lighten your load," Lin Xi said sincerely. "We’ve been together for so long, and I feel like I’ve never really done anything to help you."

Xue Yang smiled gently and made a suggestion. "In a couple of days, Xi’s Milk Tea Shop is launching new products. Song Fan is going to be incredibly busy, so you could go help him out. That way, you’d be helping me and getting involved at the same time."

Hearing this, a brilliant smile spread across Lin Xi’s face. She thought it was an excellent idea—a way to both help Xue Yang and make a contribution. She happily agreed.

As time went on, the glorious launch day for the new products at Xi’s Milk Tea Shop finally arrived.

Over the past few days, Deng Baoling’s ingenious promotional campaign had been subtly and effectively spreading the word. Combined with the fact that it was a busy Saturday, countless customers were drawn in by the shop’s growing reputation, making it the center of attention.

Even though people arrived early, a long line had already formed at the door. Everyone was buzzing with anticipation for the new drinks, especially the two that were getting the most attention: the durian fruit tea and the photinia flower fruit tea.
