It's obvious that he wants to cheat me out of my money.
After all, you are the boss of a company.
Even if your company currently has only three people, your position is there.
Why is he so servile to me?
There must be something fishy!
As Zhou Xueyi thought about this, Lu Youxi gestured towards the entrance of the Internet cafe and said, "Mr. Zhou, please come in."
Zhou Xueyi: “…”
No, he didn't want to go in at all now.
Zhou Xueyi took a deep breath and followed Lu Youxi into the Internet cafe.
This was the first time in Zhou Xueyi's life that he had entered an Internet cafe.
The air in the Internet cafe is not fresh.
It smells like bento and instant noodles.
Even though Lu Youxi turned on the ventilation setting in the smoking area, there was still a slight smell of smoke.
The customers of the Internet cafe have been surfing the Internet here all the time and have long been accustomed to these smells, so they don’t think there is anything wrong.
But Zhou Xueyi had just come in from outside, and the strong smell in the Internet cafe hit him in the face.
Zhou Xueyi frowned unhappily and raised his hand to cover his nose.
Why does it smell so bad!
Seeing this, Lu Youxi hurriedly said, "Mr. Jay, please bear with it for a moment and go up to the second floor. Internet cafes are like this. Usually, they are cleaned very frequently and have ventilation facilities. It's just that there are so many people in the Internet cafe, so it's inevitable that the smell is not cleared in time."
Cao Zhijie coughed dryly. Although he was not used to it, his reaction was not as big as Zhou Xueyi's.
"Mr. Lu, it's not easy for you to work in such an environment on a daily basis," said Cao Zhijie.
"We can't help it. We really don't have money to rent an office." Lu Youxi sighed and complained to Cao Zhijie and Zhou Xueyi with a sad face, "We invested all our money in Little Pink Book. The three of us are poor students. How can we have money? We saved money from our daily frugality and put it together to start Little Pink Book."
"It was not easy to create the little pink book. We just didn't have the money to rent an office. Fortunately, the owner of the Internet cafe was kind and agreed to rent us a private room on the second floor that was originally used for all-night Internet access as an office. At least we have a proper place to work." Lu Youxi cried.
Except for the customer who was playing games with headphones in the Internet cafe, many other customers heard Lu Youxi's words.
Everyone: “…”
Boss, listen to what you are saying? Aren't you the boss of the Internet cafe? Why are you still crying poor here? Why do you rent a house by yourself? Fortunately, Lu Youxi said hello to the guests before leaving.
No matter what she says later, everyone must not expose her.
We must give her this face.
Now the customers of the Internet cafe are old acquaintances and are also familiar with Lu Youxi.
Often jokes with Lu Youxi, Ji Deyi and Pei Jingyuan.
So when Lu Youxi told them just now, everyone agreed readily.
No matter what Lu Youxi said, they would not expose it.
But they didn't expect that Lu Youxi would actually fool people! Look how he fooled those two people. They were almost fooled silly.
No wonder Lu Youxi had to greet them in advance just now.
After hearing Lu Youxi's words, Zhou Xueyi's face became even uglier.
Good man, Lu Youxi is obviously planning to cheat him out of his money! He doesn't even have enough space for a proper office, which shows that he doesn't plan to invest more! Zhou Xueyi even began to doubt whether the little pink book was developed by these three people.
Could it be that he obtained it through fraud or unfair means?
Otherwise, with Lu Youxi's character and knowledge of not wanting to spend money, how could he possibly develop the Little Pink Book? "Mr. Jay, let's go upstairs. Be careful with the stairs." Lu Youxi reminded, "Hehe, the Internet cafe has limited facilities. The stairs are a bit narrow. Please walk slowly."
Zhou Xueyi: “…”
Why do they feel like they have fallen into a den of thieves now?
At this time, Zhou Xueyi saw the A4 paper with the company name printed on it pasted on the wall at the entrance of the stairs.
Zhou Xueyi: “…”
Can't you even afford to put up a decent sign?
"Xiao Lu." Zhou Xueyi shouted while holding the shelf.
Lu Youxi even said there was no need to call her President Lu.
Moreover, in Zhou Xueyi's opinion, Lu Youxi really didn't deserve to be called Mr. Lu.
"The Internet cafe is so noisy. Don't you find it noisy when you usually work upstairs? Especially when it comes to problems that involve a lot of calculations, you need a very quiet environment!" Zhou Xueyi tested Lu Youxi.
In such an environment, can a little pink book be produced?
Maybe they really got the little pink book from somewhere.
"Actually, it's okay. Our office is at the end of the corridor on the second floor. Although we can hear some noise from downstairs, it's not loud." Lu Youxi explained with a smile.
Leading them to the end of the corridor, Lu Youxi said, "This is it."
Zhou Xueyi said sarcastically, "I see."
There is an A4 paper stuck on the door with the company name printed on it.
Cao Zhijie couldn't help but say, "Mr. Lu, your company is quite informal."
Lu Youxi smiled embarrassedly and said, "It's all for the sake of saving money! Making that kind of copper plate is also quite expensive."
In fact, Lu Youxi had already finished it and placed it in the new office.
Since I have to move there anyway, I didn't post it here.
Zhou Xueyi took a deep breath and saw Lu Youxi open the office door.
"Pei Jingyuan, Ji Deyi, Mr. Jay is here." Lu Youxi opened the door and greeted them.
Ji Deyi followed what Lu Youxi had taught him before, and put on an enthusiastic and fawning look, nodding and bowing as he ran over.
"Mr. Jay, hello, I'm Ji Deyi." Ji Deyi stretched out his hand, not caring that Zhou Xueyi didn't reach out to him at all, and directly grabbed Zhou Xueyi's hand hanging beside his trousers, and shook it up and down a few times.
Zhou Xueyi: “!!!”
After his hand was unexpectedly held and shook twice, Zhou Xueyi's face turned dark and he pulled his hand out of Ji Deyi's hand with force.
Pei Jingyuan can't act out Ji Deyi's temperament, but sincerity is always his killer move.
Lu Youxi asked Pei Jingyuan to be himself and just show more enthusiasm.
Anyway, Pei Jingyuan was naturally very warm to people, and at this moment he waved enthusiastically at Zhou Xueyi and Cao Zhijie, "Mr. Zhou, welcome, welcome, come and sit down!"
"Oh, by the way, I'm Pei Jingyuan!" Pei Jingyuan said, and ran to the water dispenser to get a glass of water for Zhou Xueyi and Cao Zhijie respectively. He was very thoughtful.
He took out a half-opened pack of 3+2 biscuits from his desk and said, "CEO Jay, Assistant Cao, have some biscuits."
"No thanks." Zhou Xueyi refused with a grim look.
Lu Youxi dragged a chair and sat opposite Zhou Xueyi and Cao Zhijie.
Ji Deyi and Pei Jingyuan followed suit and sat down.
Lu Youxi rubbed his hands and said, "Mr. Jay, the investment you mentioned..."
"To be honest, we are in urgent need of investment right now." Lu Youxi looked short of money and laughed dryly.
