Chapter 455: Birthday
In the bathroom, Cheng Zhu and Chen Jieyu took a shower together.
The counselor had her back to him as she applied shower gel to herself, and was too embarrassed to look him in the eye.
Her overall thinking is conservative, but men are really mean. The more conservative you are, the more they like to do excessive things.
For example, he would lend a hand when the counselor was making bubbles with shower gel.
The smooth skin combined with the foam creates a unique touch.
It’s not smooth or not, but it’s a fresh experience.
Chen Jieyu instinctively wanted to hide: "What are you doing?"
But when I thought that today was his birthday, I just let him do whatever he wanted.
But Cheng Zhu's words still made her a little angry.
"Isn't it good to serve you?" the dog man said with a smile.
After walking out of the bathroom and just lying down on the bed, he received a call from Shen Minglang.
"Hey cousin, something big happened!"
Cheng Zhu put his arm around the counselor with one hand, resting his big hand on the back of her smooth back, and held his cell phone in the other hand, not knowing what was going on.
"Cousin, let me wish you a happy birthday first, and then don't ruin your birthday mood."
Cheng Zhu smiled and said calmly: "There's no need to lay out so much groundwork, is there? What happened?"
"I just got some news that Yuecha has started its second round of financing so quickly, and raised 230 million in one go! I guess there will be news released in the next few days!" Shen Minglang said anxiously.
"Oh? Then cousin, do you want to ask your dad for some more money?" Cheng Zhu smiled.
Uncle Shen, gold coins are popping up!
Of course, what he said now must be a joke.
"How can that be possible? Our family can't come up with so much cash." Shen Minglang revealed all the family secrets.
The Shen family's business cash flow has always been tight.
This is also one of the reasons why Shen Guoqiang began to pay more and more attention to pomelo tea in his heart.
"Cousin, aren't you in a hurry at all? Are you deliberately showing off to me?" Shen Minglang spoke frankly.
"Go to hell! I really won't let this matter affect my mood for celebrating my birthday today." Cheng Zhu didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
"Why?"
"No reason, because this is not necessarily a bad thing for us."
"Is it true?" Shen Minglang couldn't figure it out.
If our opponents become rich, can that be a good thing for us?
"Believe me, it will." Cheng Zhu said.
After the call, Cheng Zhu fell into deep thought.
Shen Minglang was not surprised to receive this news.
I guess he found out through some connections.
Whether it is a rumor or not remains to be verified.
But even if it was true, Cheng Zhu didn't care.
"It hasn't been long since Yuecha's first round of financing. How can they raise a second round so soon?"
"But it's not like there's no precedent for this, it's just that it's relatively rare in the food industry."
He knew very well that Chen Yue's Yue Tea must be more in need of money than You Tea.
Because the speed at which Yuzucha makes money is really terrifying.
Everyone is burning money, but you earn less than me.
Moreover, in order to maintain its current prosperous appearance, Yuecha's expenditure on marketing and other aspects is far greater than that of Youcha.
If they don't spend money like crazy, they won't even be able to compete with the online popularity and Yuzu tea!
"Recently, I see they are still looking for some celebrities to collaborate with. For example, when a celebrity appears at the airport, he or she will hold a cup of Yuecha in his or her hand."
"This kind of daily photos will have a good effect."
"I feel like I got the inspiration from Jay Chou's concert. I want to rely on celebrities to promote my products."
What's more, Yuecha only raised 100 million yuan at the beginning, but Cheng Zhu had 160 million yuan in his hands.
He expected that Yuecha would soon be short of money.
Chen Yue is also opening stores like crazy, and is almost catching up.
Now everyone is scrambling for territory in first- and second-tier cities, and they have to occupy the territory first.
“What is more noteworthy is that the one that invested in Yuecha this time is still Shenzhen Capital, and only Shenzhen Capital.” Zhe Ran Cheng Zhu narrowed his eyes slightly.
If it were him, he would not make such a choice.
He will bring in more capital and carefully select the ones that are beneficial to him.
The reason why Yuecha is like this may be that there is not much choice.
"She is deeply tied to Shendu Capital in this way."
"And I have a vague feeling that this time it is Shendu Capital that took the initiative to pay more to Yuecha." Thinking of this, Cheng Zhu's expression became a little more solemn.
It’s just a tea shop, nothing to worry about.
Chen Yue does have some business acumen. From her series of actions, it can be seen that she is not like Shen Minglang.
But as a reborn person, Cheng Zhu is naturally worthy of this.
He didn't have any cheats in his previous life. He started from scratch and became a famous entrepreneur.
After rebirth, it's hard not to be successful!
But if the opponent is Shenzhen Capital, one of the top ten venture capital firms, it is indeed a behemoth!
"Let's see what they do next. I think they're going to start capital operations."
Chen Jieyu, who was lying in Cheng Zhu's arms, saw that he was still in deep thought, so she said nothing and just looked at him secretly.
The woman is even thinking now: "He must have a lot of work pressure. He must be under a lot of pressure at such a young age."
But it seems that there is nothing I can do to help him share the burden.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but feel a little ashamed, remembering that she had wanted to win him over to be the class committee member of the Computer Science Class 2, telling him that being a class committee member would bring great benefits, and wanted to win him over to be her right-hand man.
Chen Jieyu still felt scared when she heard figures like hundreds of millions being thrown around on the phone.
She would not disturb Cheng Zhu at all at this moment, for fear of disrupting his thoughts.
Even his big hand that kept wandering on his back seemed like a subconscious reaction while he was deep in thought.
In fact, Cheng Zhu was feeling the lines of the counselor's back and felt that her beautiful back felt really good to the touch.
Regarding Yuecha's second round of financing from Shenzhen Capital, Cheng Zhu does not plan to make any further arrangements.
It doesn’t matter, we’ll be beaten anyway.
His next business plan is terrifying and will teach the industry a good lesson.
Excellent businessmen occupy the market, while more advanced businessmen cultivate the market themselves.
Cheng Zhu now has another thing to do.
He looked down at the counselor and said, "I have something I wanted to tell you before, and I'm reminding you now."
"Didn't you say your mom sent you a message telling you about your dad's recent situation?"
"Yeah." Concubine Chen nodded, looking surprised.
She was a little confused. Wasn't she thinking about business matters just now? Why did he suddenly mention them?
"Where do you think he got all this money?" Cheng Zhu asked.
"I'm not sure, but I suspect he's still gambling." Upon hearing this, Concubine Chen's eyes under her gold-rimmed glasses revealed a solemnity, and her brows furrowed slightly.
She had seen this scene too many times.
When Chen Qin was lucky, he would win some money, but in the end he would lose it all.
The ups and downs of gambling are often the most terrifying and will wear down a person's will.
Money comes quickly and goes quickly.
If this happens several times, it will be difficult for you to calm down and do your work properly.
Cheng Zhu, the instigator, nodded slightly and said, "In fact, people like him are easily set up by others."
——Hehe, I sent someone to do it.
He told this directly to Concubine Chen, as a way of giving her a heads-up.
After hearing this, the counselor roughly understood what Cheng Zhu meant.
Although her hometown is just a small place, there are still many people who like to gamble.
In fact, many rural areas have a large number of veteran gamblers who play cards or mahjong all year round.
She also heard that some people were framed at the gambling table, and some were framed when working in partnership.
Based on her understanding of Chen Qin, if someone really set a trap for him, he would fall into it very easily.
"So you have to be prepared and think clearly about what you should do if such a situation really happens." Cheng Zhu said as he continued to stroke his back.
Obviously he is a student and the other party is a counselor, now it seems like an identity swap.
Concubine Chen nodded slightly: "I have an idea now."
Cheng Zhu sincerely hoped that the counselor could settle the matter with his family this time, so he said, "That's good."
After saying this, he suddenly smiled and said, "Now I remember a sentence, but I forgot where I saw it."
"Now that you say that, I'm a little afraid to listen." Concubine Chen seemed to recall something.
"Why?"
"Because when I said that I felt like I couldn't see the future, someone said to me: When a person says he can't see the future, he often sees his own future." She smiled.
Even though she looks so relaxed now, she was really hurt by Cheng Zhu in the barbecue restaurant at that time.
It felt like these words stabbed into her heart.
It's so hurtful and depressing.
Cheng Zhu waved his hand and said, "Then what I said today is not in this style."
"Then tell me what you mean." Chen Jieyu's beautiful eyes under her gold-rimmed glasses met his gaze.
And Cheng Zhu's words really warmed her heart.
“Those who have the courage to end will be rewarded with a new beginning.”
In the bedroom, Concubine Chen silently took note of what Cheng Zhu said.
She could feel Cheng Zhu's comfort, and also understood his hidden attitude in this sentence.
Cheng Zhu naturally hoped that the counselor could break off ties with his family as cleanly as possible.
People do need family affection, but the prerequisite is that it exists in the family!
He hoped that Concubine Chen could have a new life.
The two of them just lay together, not watching TV, just chatting.
Whenever the counselors talk about the past, they feel it is a bit magical.
When she first saw this student in class, she always felt that this person might be a troublemaker in the class.
But who would have thought that the two would end up in the relationship they have today.
"When you suggested that I run for class committee, I really thought you had a keen eye for talent and could see my strengths at first sight," said Cheng Zhu.
"I really didn't think so much at that time." A playful look appeared on the counselor's serious face.
"Huh? You can't even sense my strengths?" Cheng Zhu began to put pressure on him.
He half-pressed his whole body on Concubine Chen, looking her up and down.
Now Chen Jieyu could no longer fail to understand what he meant. She just felt that this bad student could be quite rogue at times.
He leaned down, leaned close to her ear, and whispered something.
Upon hearing this, Concubine Chen looked down and then pursed her lips involuntarily.
Based on her principle of obeying him in everything today, she would also do as he asked.
But she still made a small request: "Can you turn off the lights?"
As a result, Cheng Zhu’s reply made her feel like her brain was about to explode.
"No, I want to watch."
Upon hearing this, Concubine Chen stared at him for a long time. Seeing that he was unmoved, she had to move her position silently, then half-lay on the bed and lowered her face.
She supported herself on the bed with her elbows, her shoulders slightly raised, and she sometimes lowered her head and sometimes raised it.
Since Cheng Zhu was unwilling to turn off the lights, she chose to close her eyes.
The bad student was enjoying the scene in front of him and thought that the counselor had a very small mouth.
She cannot be compared with Ye Zi and Hu Yan in terms of talent, and seems a bit clumsy.
But it was her inner conservatism and clumsiness that made Cheng Zhu, who had too much life experience, find it interesting.
Because you can get a psychological pleasure, she will make you feel: "If it were someone else, she would never do this, but because it's me, she is willing to do anything."
During the whole process, the counselor's long hair inevitably fell from her shoulders and covered her face.
Cheng Zhu would always stretch out his big hands and lift up her long hair.
This made Chen Jieyu, who had her eyes closed, realize clearly: He really has been looking at me!
The counselor's face began to turn red, and she felt a strange feeling in her heart and body.
The beautiful eyes behind the gold-rimmed glasses were still closed, but they did not stop.
Since the counselor was half lying on his side, he saw the counselor's profile.
The sudden action caught the busy counselor off guard and he let out a cry.
This cry was different from usual ones.
Because the sound leaked out from inside when the mouth was in gagged mode.
The sound sounded more dull.
During the whole process, the counselor couldn't help but hug Cheng Zhu's back tightly several times.
She used her remaining consciousness to try her best to control herself so as not to scratch him with her nails.
In fact, it’s no big deal if there are a few scratches.
Is that a scar?
That's a medal only a real man can have!
