Chapter 592 Yiyi's Coming of Age Ceremony
It's late at night.
The lights in the girls' dormitory where Meng Yiyi lives have been turned off. Only Chen Qianhui, a night owl, has a night light on on her bed. She is staying up late practicing Taoism and playing with her phone.
Her night light has a unique shape.
It's a moon rabbit.
Soon, she noticed that the innocent little girl sleeping on the bed opposite her was also holding a cell phone in the dark and seemed to be typing.
This is very rare.
As soon as Yi Yi entered school, many of her classmates were amazed by her beauty.
Even in a school like Communication University where there are many handsome men and beautiful women, she is one of the most outstanding freshmen.
This special temperament is unique.
There are quite a few boys who are interested in her.
After becoming the [Pure Desire Ceiling], it became even more.
The desire to conquer of many boys was aroused.
Wow, the ceiling of pure desire makes me want to sleep even more!
But in fact, with the pure little white flower's skills, even if she only has one-fifth of her peak skills in her previous life, she is able to easily control the male college student who is known for being stupid.
No one in this group can beat her.
If she wanted, they would all be her dogs!
At this moment, Chen Qianhui was quite curious and wondered who Yi Yi was chatting with late at night.
So, she also sent a WeChat message.
"Tell the truth, who were you chatting with at night?"
Yiyi, who was sleeping on the bed opposite, looked up at her. They smiled at each other and then typed on their phones.
"With my brother." Yiyi replied.
Is that half the truth?
"Brother?" Chen Qianhui immediately became excited and all the WeChat messages she sent had a question mark in them.
She continued typing with a smirk on her face: "Could it be that he is the kind of brother I recognize?"
Chen Qianhui directly sent a smirking emoticon, not hiding the fact that she was teasing Yi Yi at all.
When I was a student, it was very popular to recognize brothers and sisters.
Especially those born after 1990.
So much so that the line in Xu Song's song "Superfluous Explanation", "She is just my sister, and my sister said the color purple is very charming", later became a popular meme.
He is holding concerts now, and the fan support color, which was originally blue, has been turned into purple. Many girls will deliberately wear purple clothes to watch his concerts, so that everywhere you look, you see girls wearing purple.
Of course, most of the so-called recognition of brothers and sisters during school days do not have particularly pure motives.
Yiyi replied: "Oh no."
Then, Chen Qianhui sent her an emoticon that meant "secretly observing", and she simply didn't reply.
At this moment, the innocent little white flower was naturally busy chatting with her brother Cheng Zhu.
Cheng Zhu asked her if she was asleep. She was about to fall asleep when she replied immediately: "Not yet."
She didn't know why, but she felt very complicated now.
A little happy, a little aggrieved, even a little nervous?
All the complexity comes from the four most fatal words in the relationship between men and women
——Worry about gains and losses!
Cheng Zhu knew clearly in his heart that Yi Yi had definitely seen him.
But after thinking about it, the dog man did not take the initiative to mention this matter.
In any case, he did not show on the spot that he saw Yi Yi, and he pretended not to see it.
So, he just took the initiative to come to Yiyi to talk about his birthday.
"Would you like me to book a place for a midnight snack on the 11th?" he asked.
"Or do you have any plans?" Cheng Zhu asked.
"No, I'm fine with anything." Yiyi typed back.
On the contrary, Cheng Zhu fell into a brief silence after seeing this sentence.
Many memories from past lives came flooding back.
In the past, Yiyi often pretended to be ignorant even though she knew the truth. Because she was sensible, she acted as if she didn’t know or didn’t care about many things.
This is also one of the reasons why she can become the semi-concubine.
Just like what Cai Lan wrote in his essay "Brain":
"Sometimes a man doesn't have to do I with his muscles, but with his brains. You will understand later."
But she is still a minor after all.
Cheng Zhu was mentally prepared, thinking that if she really had any small emotions tonight, he would comfort her.
He would not use the standards of his previous life to judge Yi Yi at this moment.
After all, they are young, and after all, it is the [Youth Limited Edition].
People cannot have it all.
But he didn't expect everything to be so familiar.
Yiyi never seems to make things difficult for him.
After a moment of silence, Cheng Zhu typed again: "How about this, let me arrange everything and provide you with a one-stop service."
From the sound of it, I guess he will be more careful.
Yiyi looked at her phone, and the gloom in her heart dissipated a lot.
She thought that Brother Cheng Zhu didn't see her in the cinema.
"Okay!" Yiyi sent a WeChat message.
She also posted an emoji of a kitten waving two glow sticks.
The innocent little white flower might suffer from insomnia tonight.
She will constantly think of the scenes she saw in the cinema, and will begin to look forward to her own coming-of-age ceremony.
Zhang Qiqi: I seem to have insomnia.
The rich man, who had been busy all day, was now sleeping naked on the bed.
She didn't know where she heard it from, but she said it was good for the skin.
Today, she was actually a little exhausted both physically and mentally.
It's video shooting, commercial shooting, and meetings.
After returning home, she planned to go to bed early.
"There's still a lot of work to do tomorrow."
But the phone call from Yiyi just now made her fall into low spirits instantly.
At the beginning, Zhang Qiqi was actually quite nervous.
"Could it be that my junior has other women besides me and Lin Lu?" This thought flashed through her mind.
After having sex with Cheng Zhu several times, she has come to realize the reality.
——He is so good at it!
This boy is so skilled and amazing.
Zhang Qiqi was already of college graduation age. Although she had never experienced anything before, she was not completely ignorant.
In a few years, she can at least be called a 5G surfer.
She works as an internet celebrity, so she checks Weibo very frequently.
This place always likes to scold men in many aspects, including physical aspects.
She had read many articles saying that most women had never experienced the feeling of reaching the summit with a man in their lives.
The vast majority of men do not have such ability and level.
A bunch of sisters expressed their agreement in the comment section below, and many actors with good acting skills said that they were very tired of pretending.
Oh, man, you don’t really think you are so strong, do you?
But Zhang Qiqi knew very well that she had really gone to the cloud and was really standing on the cloud.
Moreover, he only needed one hand to unbutton his shirt, and it only took one second.
She also saw on the Internet that many boys couldn't find the entrance at the beginning.
But he...he...oops!
In order to help her understand her position, Cheng Zhu was too lazy to pretend in many things.
Because of this, she could sense something from the side.
Sometimes she would wonder: Am I Cheng Zhu’s only woman besides Lin Lu?
She couldn't get the answer in her mind.
So, after getting Yi Yi's answer on the phone, her first reaction was... Thankful?
"Fortunately, fortunately, it wasn't someone else, it was Lin Lu!"
But what follows is an extremely complex set of emotions.
The reason was simple. She had confessed to Yi Yi that she liked her junior brother Cheng Zhu, and had also hinted that she was pursuing him.
Now, my cousin saw him dating someone else!
This is actually equivalent to making a fool of yourself in front of your family, which is shameful.
And the other person was Yi Yi, the Yi Yi who she always felt admired her.
She didn't know how to describe this uncomfortable feeling for a moment.
"It's just uncomfortable."
Besides, she remembered one thing after she hung up the phone.
"Yiyi's birthday is in a few days."
"I also told her that I would help her celebrate her coming-of-age ceremony and asked her to make an appointment with a junior student."
"Now, she already knows that Cheng Zhu is in love with Lin Lu."
"Then, even if he really comes, my situation will be a bit awkward."
"Whether you speak or do things, your hands will be tied."
She still has some dignity to maintain. She wouldn't want her sister to notice that she is trying to undermine her sister, right?
There may even be some people trying to avoid suspicion on purpose, pretending that everyone is just friends now.
This gave Zhang Qiqi a headache, and she began to hope that Cheng Zhu had something to do and wouldn't be able to be there.
"How come I was on a date with Lin Lu and was bumped into by Yi Yi?"
"Alas." The rich man sighed while lying on the bed.
In fact, some of her thinking patterns have changed unknowingly.
Time flies, and October 11th is here in a blink of an eye.
Today is the day Cheng Zhu and Yi Yi agreed upon.
But he still had a lot of things to do during the day, and the two of them had originally agreed to celebrate his birthday in the early morning.
At two o'clock in the afternoon, Zhang Xuhao came to the company and met Cheng Zhu in his office.
During this period, because the military advisor was too busy, Haozi had to come to Hangzhou to find him by himself.
Brother Hao, who is on the rich list, doesn't feel it's hard at all.
On the contrary, after this trip, he felt it was extremely valuable and almost knelt down to Cheng Zhu!
This guy is not a military advisor, this guy is a prime minister!
The reason was very simple, Cheng Zhu gave him some advice again.
During this period, some basic integration work between [Are you hungry?] and [Baidu Takeout] has been completed.
In today’s takeout market, Brother Hao is the boss!
Although Wang Xin's well-trained team is very powerful and their strategy of "surrounding the cities from the countryside" is correct, our Blue Knights still have the advantage!
The second half of the final battle of the takeaway war has actually begun.
Zhang Xuhao now firmly dominates the markets in first- and second-tier cities, and is now competing with Miduan for the lower-tier markets!
But this did touch Lao Wang's foundation.
So this battle will be very difficult to fight.
When Haozi has no clue, he will come to Cheng Zhu.
The [Foodie Beans] gameplay he suggested earlier worked really well!
What a pity, Mi Tuan has already started copying.
We launched the [Foodie Beans], and then he came up with the [Rice Grains].
Damn, copying so fast!
He is worthy of being Brother Wang, who has started nine businesses by plagiarizing foreign projects.
“Fortunately, we launched [Foodie Beans] early, and many users have already accumulated a large amount of beans.”
“As a result, reliance on and loyalty to the platform will increase.”
This time, Cheng Zhu also knew that the decisive battle had entered the second half, so he decided to give Haozi some more advice.
"Hey, listen carefully to what I'm going to say next. I'm very busy today."
"Also, I've already told you that I have plans for tonight, and the other party has already made an appointment with me, so I can only have dinner with you today, and I won't arrange any nightlife for you. It's not that I'm not hospitality enough!"
Zhang Xuhao didn't care at all: "Why are we doing this?"
"I'm very familiar with Hangzhou. If I want to have fun, I can have fun by myself!" The little fat man waved his hand indifferently.
Cheng Zhu took out two cans of ice cola from the refrigerator and handed one to him.
After sitting down on the sofa, he said directly: "I think we can launch a new subsidy model if we are hungry."
"Ah? But our Foodie Beans model has only been launched for a short time. Do we need to create a new one? Wouldn't that be too cumbersome?" Zhang Xuhao was puzzled.
Cheng Zhu looked at him and said, "We are still burning money now, right?"
"yes."
"In addition to exchanging foodie beans for red envelopes, there are actually many free red envelopes that can be received, right?"
"yes."
“My advice is don’t give it away for free, let the customers pay for it.”
"What is that? What does it mean to spend money to buy money?" Zhang Xuhao was stunned for a moment, but soon realized that there was something mysterious here.
Cheng Zhu was in a hurry and didn't let himself think, but gave the answer directly: "For example, if a mechanism is introduced, I can spend 8 yuan to buy 4 red envelopes of 6 yuan each."
"It feels like I spent $8 and got $24, right?"
"Yes." Zhang Xuhao nodded.
"However, you can only use one of these four red envelopes at a time." Cheng Zhu looked at him and continued.
When Zhang Xuhao heard this, his not-so-big eyes instantly brightened up a little.
He has already understood at least half of the tricks here.
He immediately said: "The example you gave is very good. I even think the number is particularly good. Spend 8 yuan to buy 4 red envelopes of 6 yuan each."
"In this way, the customer actually spent an extra 2 yuan on the first order!"
“But as long as he continues to use it on Ele.me, he will start making money from the next order!”
"Also, he must make a loss on his first order."
"Only in this way will it feel like he really spent money to buy the coupons." Zhang Xuhao became more and more excited as he spoke, and his eyes became brighter and brighter.
"That's right." Cheng Zhu nodded.
This is actually not a very rare method, and many shopping malls like to use it.
After you buy something, you will be given a discount coupon, but these coupons can only be used to deduct the price when you place an order, in order to stimulate consumption.
[Are you hungry?] You can’t do it this way here. The deduction must be made directly on the first order.
Because everyone is still in a money-burning war, we can’t let users spend 8 yuan more on the first order. That would make them unhappy, and the threshold is too high.
What we want is that you spend 8 yuan, but immediately get 6 yuan off, which means you only spent 2 yuan.
Two dollars is actually a very subtle number.
This method is actually similar to the function of Foodie Beans, which is to increase user stickiness and increase the number of times users use it.
It is helpful to stabilize the current old users.
The business methods are old ones, with only a little innovation in them, or it can be said that they are not innovation at all, but are applied very flexibly.
Even so, it is enough.
Because this combination of punches is perfect for the current battle situation!
Mi Tuan: Come on, come on, place your order with me.
User: No, no, I’m hungry and I still have red envelopes that I haven’t used up. I bought them with my own money!
The two of them sat in the office and chatted for more than half an hour.
Cheng Zhu also suggested: "In fact, we can also develop some merchant voucher functions."
"For example, if I want to sell more orders for my pomelo tea on Ele.me, I can provide merchant coupons to old customers, and they can get a discount of one or two yuan when they come to buy next time."
“These costs can be borne by the merchants themselves.”
"Because actually now the internal competition among businesses is gradually becoming fiercer."
“Everyone thinks that food delivery platforms are very promising and will definitely surpass dine-in restaurants in the future.”
"We can also burn the money in other people's pockets, don't just burn our own money!" Cheng Zhu said.
"Yes, yes, yes!" Zhang Xuhao began to slap his thighs happily.
After the chat, Cheng Zhu went off to do his own thing, leaving Zhang Xuhao alone in the office.
Haozi didn't feel bored because he called people in the company immediately and then held a video conference, which was very efficient.
At six o'clock, Cheng Zhu and Zhang Xuhao went out to eat together.
After dinner, he called his driver, Xiao Wang.
"Hey, Xiao Wang, have you finished everything I asked you to arrange?"
"Mr. Cheng, everything is ready. The fireworks have been placed on the lawn of the B&B. According to your instructions, we bought the most expensive, largest and most gorgeous ones." Xiao Wang said.
"Okay." Cheng Zhu hung up the phone.
To him, he knew Yi Yi's preferences too well.
In his previous life, his strategy to conquer her was 100% complete, and the degree of development was ridiculously high.
Now, he is a reborn person and the other party is a minor, which makes it easier to deal with.
"Taking girls to set off fireworks is actually a very vulgar thing to do, and there is not much novelty." Cheng Zhu was very sure of this.
So much so that in his previous life, when he and Yi Yi were in the ambiguous and "passionate love" period, he never thought of taking her to set off fireworks. He felt it was meaningless.
Until the Chinese New Year, they set it off once just to add to the festive atmosphere.
That night, Yiyi's reaction was huge.
He could feel that she was really super super happy.
Cheng Zhu was still a little confused about this.
"Do you like fireworks so much?" he asked.
"Well, I like fireworks very, very, very much!" replied the innocent little white flower.
"Why?" Cheng Zhu was curious.
"Because fireworks are short-lived." Yiyi replied. In her outlook on life, perhaps beauty is always fleeting.
"Um?"
"Boss, have you ever heard this saying? It seems to be written by a Soviet writer: People do not live for a lifetime, nor for a few years, months, or days, but for a few moments."
"I haven't heard the complete version, I only saw it on Zhihu: People don't live a lifetime, but a few moments," he replied.
In his previous life, Cheng Zhu actually sometimes wondered, Yiyi liked me, was it because I gave her a certain "moment" in her life without even realizing it?
He's not sure.
But if conditions permit, he hopes that tonight can become a "moment" in Yi Yi's life.
