"Okay, cousin."
Today, we are completely short-staffed, which is beyond Tang Ping's expectations. Moreover, the internet cafe must implement an eight-hour, three-shift system from now on, otherwise the working hours will be too long and people will not be able to handle it.
"Thank you everyone! Late-night snacks are on me!"
Tang Ping paid each of the neighborhood women who came to help, and also gave them a late-night snack, which was accompanied by his mother Zhou Xiaofeng and his aunt.
Tang Ping himself didn't have time at all, because Meng Yu had also arrived.
There were fewer people at night, so Meng Yu sat at the bar and punched Tang Ping on the shoulder with her fist, saying, "How could you be so disloyal? You opened such a big internet cafe without even telling me. Don't you consider me a friend?"
"No, no, I was just worried you wouldn't be comfortable in this kind of setting. Besides, I already felt bad for asking you for help last time, and I still owe you a hot pot meal." Tang Ping said, waving towards the bar: "Two glasses of First Love Sweetness!"
"What's wrong with that? Internet cafes are a trend. I've seen them before when I was in Beijing. But why is yours called an internet cafe? And it looks more upscale, even better than a regular coffee shop."
"I designed it myself, isn't it pretty good?"
Tang Ping looked around with satisfaction. He had explained the entire interior design of the internet cafe to the workers step by step, and he was very satisfied with the final result.
The color scheme is dark and the lighting is well-coordinated, giving it the feel of a music bar.
"Hmm, you also have a talent for business, but it's a pity. If you had studied design, you would definitely have been a genius. By the way, I also like surfing the internet. Are there any discounts available in the future?" Meng Yu asked, biting her straw.
Tang Ping said directly, "Look at what you're saying. Ah Hui, come and arrange a membership card for Miss Meng, number 0001. She can have free internet access forever and order as much milk tea as she wants."
Li Hui and a new employee were on duty that night. Upon hearing this, they immediately began to make arrangements.
Meng Yu exclaimed in surprise, "Wow! Tang Ping, you're being too generous! I feel so bad, I'll just pay for the top-up myself."
"No need, really no need, you can come anytime. By the way, I happen to be free, shall I treat you to hot pot?"
Tang Ping suggested.
Without Meng Yu's help, the opening of my internet cafe will probably be delayed for a while longer.
Meng Yu was somewhat tempted, but quickly said with a dejected look, "No, thank you. Old Meng rarely cooks for dinner, and I'm already very full. If I eat a late-night snack, I'll probably get fat."
"Oh, you're quite thin. Shall I take you for a ride?" Tang Ping couldn't help but laugh.
"Okay, same as always, you have to take me home before 10 o'clock!"
"Yes, sir!"
The motorcycle sped through Lovers' Street and soon arrived at the riverbank where they had met before. Meng Yu seemed to be in a good mood.
Tang Ping suddenly remembered something and took the opportunity to ask, "Meng Yu, if you were to have children in the future, would you prefer a boy or a girl?"
Why ask such a strange question? As for me, I'm fine with either boys or girls.
Meng Yu leaned against the railing, the night breeze gently blowing through her hair, making her extremely beautiful and captivating.
“I’m different; I have to have a boy.”
"Why? Oh, Tang Ping, I didn't know you were a sexist. Humph, your kind of moral education is so outdated!"
Tang Ping stared straight at Meng Yu and smiled, "No, it's because I can't like any girl other than you."
Meng Yu was stunned for a moment, then couldn't help but giggle, playfully punching Tang Ping with her fist, and said, "You're so annoying! You're deliberately trying to make me happy, aren't you? Where did you learn that?"
“You don’t need to learn this. Just seeing you makes me imagine the future, and I can’t help it,” Tang Ping said.
This is a blatant confession of feelings.
Meng Yu's pretty face flushed slightly. She lowered her head, twisting her fingers together, and said, "It's too late. Take me home."
"Alright!"
Tang Ping smiled and wasn't in a hurry for Meng Yu to express her feelings. After all, he had already made it clear that he liked her and was pursuing her openly and honestly.
Whether Meng Yu agrees or not depends on her future efforts.
When pursuing a girl, you need to be patient.
When they got downstairs, Tang Ping watched Meng Yu go upstairs again before leaving.
Meng Yu was in a good mood when she got home and even hummed a song.
In the living room, Meng Dehai and Aunt Cui were still watching TV.
"Old Meng, aren't you asleep yet? You need to go to bed early and get up early as you get older!"
Meng Yu greeted them as she changed her shoes and went to the bathroom to take a shower.
After the door closed, Meng Dehai glanced at Aunt Cui beside him and asked in confusion, "What's wrong with this girl? She was so bitter and resentful towards me during the day because of the news reports, but why is she in a better mood at night?"
"Your daughter's dating, just ignore her. I'm turning off the TV." Aunt Cui rolled her eyes at him and got up to grab the remote.
"Dating? Didn't An Xin say there wasn't much progress? Honestly, these young people nowadays..."
Meng Dehai shook his head, picked up his teacup, and stood up. As he entered the room, he thought for a moment and then called out to Meng Yu, "Come run with me on the mountain tomorrow! I'll wake you up in the morning!"
......
Tang Ping was in a great mood. The audio-visual store was open for business, and the internet cafe was also open. The combined profits from the three businesses were so high that it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that they were making a fortune every day.
Most importantly, he confessed his feelings to Meng Yu today, and Meng Yu didn't seem to mind, which means there's potential.
With both career and love on the horizon, Tang Ping was in high spirits. He rode his bike home happily, and as he passed under an overpass, he suddenly heard voices coming from not far away.
Tang Ping quickly stopped the car and, upon closer inspection, saw a brand-new black sedan surrounded by a group of thugs in black clothing under the overpass.
Inside the car, a well-off middle-aged man was being forcibly dragged out.
Not far away, there stood a fat man with a fierce expression, and at his feet was a deep pit.
"Xu Jiang? Is that Bai Jiangbo in the car?"
Tang Ping was stunned for a moment, then immediately remembered that this was the place where Xu Jiang was going to bury Bai Jiangbo alive.
Instinctively, Tang Ping wanted to leave. He just wanted to do business properly and didn't want to get involved in these troubles.
But for some reason, the system beeped again at that very moment.
bite!
Life Choice System:
1. Stop Xu Jiang, uphold justice, and you will be rewarded with [one million yuan in cash and a sand quarry]!
2. Ignore the situation, leave evidence, and you will be rewarded with [Firearms Mastery]!
This time, Tang Ping had no choice but to stop and hide behind a mound of earth, quietly observing.
The first option offers a very generous reward of one million, enough to pay off a bank loan or open a branch of an internet cafe.
Add a sand quarry, and in this era of rampant infrastructure development, having a sand quarry with a few dump trucks is a business that can make a fortune every day.
To be honest, Tang Ping was a little tempted, but when he thought about how Xu Jiang was a madman and his powerful backing in Jinghai, Tang Ping felt it was unnecessary.
