After dropping the three of them off at school, Lin Chen didn't go back to his dorm; he went straight to room 1901.
When I opened the door, I found the lights were on, and Senior Anrou was lying on the sofa, eating potato chips, watching a variety show, and laughing non-stop.
"Boss, you're back."
Lin Chen walked over and slumped onto the sofa: "Senior, can you get me a Coke? I've been driving for over three hours, I'm exhausted."
An Rou stood up, shuffling over in her slippers to get Lin Chen a bottle of iced cola.
Lin Chen opened the bottle and took a sip: "Wow, this feels so good, I feel like I've come back to life."
An Rou walked back, kicked off her slippers, sat cross-legged on the sofa, and said to Lin Chen, "Everything has been arranged with TX. The flight is at 10 a.m. tomorrow. They will arrange for someone to pick us up when we arrive."
"You're amazing, senior. I'll treat you to dinner tonight."
"Then I want a big meal. Boss, haven't you noticed I've lost weight while you were gone?"
Lin Chen looked up and glanced at An Rou's... big white rabbit.
"You haven't lost weight."
"Where are you looking, you scoundrel boss!"
"Ahem, of course it's about the fat on your body. Hurry up and think about what to eat tonight. I'm going to take a shower."
Lin Chen turned and walked towards the bathroom. An Rou looked at Lin Chen's back, her cheeks flushed, and spat out, "You dog boss, you big pervert."
The next morning, Lin Chen drove An Rou to the airport, took a picture of the airport, and posted it in the Shanghai quartet's group chat.
"Comrades, I'm setting off to save those homeless little coins!"
"Hehe, bring me a gift when you come back."
"I want one too."
"Brother Chen, I want one too."
TX was very generous, booking first class for the two of them. After all, it involved a 500 million yuan acquisition project, which was a big step for TX in its mobile game strategy.
Two hours later, the plane landed at Shenzhen Bao'an Airport. TX staff picked up Lin Chen and An Rou and took them to a five-star hotel near TX headquarters.
"Mr. Lin, please rest first. We will arrange a car to pick you up at 9 a.m. tomorrow. I won't disturb you any longer. Goodbye."
TX booked two rooms next to each other, and An Rou knocked on Lin Chen's room door and came in.
"Boss, what should I do if I suddenly get a little nervous?"
"What's there to be nervous about?"
"The other party is Tencent, the largest company in the country."
"I'm still a customer of TX. Shouldn't they treat their customers like royalty?"
"Boss, I didn't know you had other business dealings with TX."
"I'm a QQ user, aren't you?"
"Ah, this..."
"Alright, let's go. The boss will take you out for a big meal, and we'll also buy you an outfit for tomorrow. It's better to dress a little more formally for this kind of occasion."
The two left the hotel, took a taxi to the nearest shopping mall, and found a Cantonese restaurant that was packed with customers.
After finishing their meal, they went to the first floor of the mall. Lin Chen led An Rou into the Armani counter. An Rou tugged at Lin Chen's sleeve and whispered, "Boss, this place is very expensive."
Lin Chen patted her head: "We need to represent the image of Star Technology, you know?"
An Rou was speechless. There were only two of us at Xingchen Technology. Our office belonged to the school, and even our computers were sponsored by the school. What kind of image did we have?
"Welcome, sir. What would you like to buy?"
"Get me a shirt and suit, and also get this lady a business style outfit and a casual style outfit."
"Okay, sir and madam, please have a seat here and wait a moment."
Lin Chen and An Rou sat on the sofa in the shop, and someone immediately brought them tea.
An Rou whispered, "Boss, why do I have two sets?"
"Ahem, well, different occasions call for different clothes, it's a bit complicated." Lin Chen thought to himself, I can't come up with anything. Should I say that I just wanted to buy you clothes?
The shop assistant brought over the outfits that had been matched and led the two of them into the fitting rooms to change.
Lin Chen's tall and slender figure of 180cm makes him a natural suit hanger, which makes the store staff's eyes light up.
"Not bad, let's keep this one."
At this moment, An Rou also came out of the dressing room next door. She was wearing a white shirt, a pencil skirt, and black stockings and high heels, looking every bit the professional woman. But with her cute face and the little white breasts supporting her shirt, the contrast made Lin Chen exclaim that he couldn't stand it.
"Ahem, this one works too. There's another one here, go try it on."
"oh."
An Rou obediently went inside and changed into another outfit before coming out. Lin Chen saw that she was wearing a halter-neck bodycon dress paired with a casual shirt jacket, looking youthful, beautiful, cute, and charming.
"Wrap them all up, swipe your card."
"Okay, sir, that's 26,000 yuan in total. Please come over here to swipe your card."
Lin Chen carried the clothes and took a taxi back to the hotel with An Rou. On the way, An Rou kept using her phone calculator to calculate something.
"Senior, who do you think you are?"
"I'm calculating how long it will take me to save up enough salary to pay you back for these two outfits."
Lin Chen patted her head: "Silly you, this is a work uniform, it's given to you by the company for work. Have you ever seen a company where you have to pay for your own work uniform?"
"Yes, I've seen that. Many of my classmates bought their own work uniforms when they went for internships."
"Uh, so all those companies are trash. Our Xingchen Technology is so much better. They give their employees free uniforms. Tell me how great our boss is."
"The boss is so nice, hehe."
The next day, Lin Chen and An Rou dressed neatly, went downstairs, and got into a car arranged by TX to go to TX headquarters.
