Chapter 98: New Arrivals in the Shop

~8 min read 1,453 words

Inside the spacious and bright classroom.

The male teacher on the podium is speaking eloquently, his tone resonant and forceful, while the students are divided into two starkly different extremes; the students in the front row are focused and attentive, taking notes with a "rustling" sound as they listen.

The students in the back row have limited self-discipline; without a teacher behind them to supervise and spur them on, they are like wild horses that have broken their bridles, becoming lazy and scattered. Some are as if their souls have been hooked by their mobile phones, immersed in them and unable to extricate themselves, while others are as if possessed by the sleep bug, slumped over their desks, drowsy.

"You can play games, but don't look at other things." Shen Yan, feeling annoyed by Wu Yueer's pestering, had no choice but to unlock the screen and give her a Warning.

Wu Yueer nodded repeatedly in agreement.

There aren't actually many games on Shen Yan's phone, just "Angry Birds" and "Bubble Shooter".

In his spare time, he uses them to pass the time.

Wu Yueer tapped on "Bubble Shooter" and started playing, beginning from the first level. This game wasn't difficult to begin with, and since Wu Yueer is smart, she got addicted after playing two rounds, her eyes sparkling as she played with great delight.

She only hated that her own phone was too low-end, with such limited functionality.

Once she earns some money later, whoever wants this piece-of-junk phone can have it.

When she played "Angry Birds" again, Wu Yueer was immediately struck with awe. The imaginative game design, where every bird has a unique personality and ability, and their character designs are so lifelike, makes one feel as if they can sense their anger and determination. And the level design is even more ingenious, filled with all sorts of marvelous obstacles and traps that require the clever use of the birds' abilities to break through.

In the process of playing the game, it makes one feel an unprecedented sense of challenge and fun; every successful defeat of the green-skinned pigs fills one with a sense of achievement and joy. And when she encounters difficulties, Wu Yueer becomes high-spirited, striving to think of the best strategy to clear the level.

Good heavens! Even though they are both mobile phones, the technology is completely on different levels.

Seeing that the two of them weren't interacting too much, Lin Yang couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, but he still decided to test the waters, so he sent a message to Wu Yueer.

"Yue'er, do you have feelings for Old Shen?"

Wu Yueer frowned, glanced at Lin Yang beside her, and typed: "Are you sick? We're just good buddies."

Lin Yang: "Hehe! I was just saying it casually. Old Shen has a girlfriend; it's best if you two aren't too close, it's bad if people misunderstand."

Wu Yueer: "Mind your own business, my conscience is clear."

Lin Yang: "Alright, alright! Consider it me saying the wrong thing, I'll treat you to milk tea later."

"Not drinking it!"

Lin Yang looked as if his parents had died; he was done for, he had accidentally angered the goddess.

He just said it, there was no way the two of them were possible.

It was all his own fault! Being a busybody for no reason and having to run his mouth; now he was done for.

Shen Yan naturally didn't know about the secret between the two of them. After finishing the organization of the images, he uploaded them directly to the shop, and with that, the two clothing items were officially listed.

Sales could begin.

During the summer vacation, the sales of that men's t-shirt were quite good, and the online shop's reputation rating crossed the heart and Diamond levels, reaching the one-star blue crown tier in one go.

On the Taobao online shopping platform, there are some default unspoken rules: the higher the shop's reputation rating, the more exposure the products usually get, and converting the traffic entering the shop into actual sales is the core issue of running an online shop.

Under normal circumstances, at this time, Shen Yan should find the more experienced Yu Youwei and ask her to help find people to leave positive reviews. After pondering for a moment, Shen Yan still dismissed this idea.

It was too troublesome to explain!

After that conversation, although Yu Youwei appeared indifferent on the surface, as if nothing had happened, no one knew her true thoughts at the bottom of her heart; it was better not to provoke her if he could avoid it.

Time would always fade everything.

He still had to trouble his little girlfriend. Shen Yan logged into QQ on his laptop and typed: "Qiqi, I've already listed the clothes in the shop, you find a few friends in other places to place some orders..."

Shen Yan briefly introduced the operation of brushing for positive reviews, and Hao Anqi was left dumbfounded.

It was actually possible to play like this; it truly was like a small knife piercing the buttocks—it opened her eyes.

Since it concerned her little boyfriend's money-making plan, Hao Anqi did not delay and immediately contacted a few good girlfriends.

At the same time, a delivery text message was sent to Shen Yan's phone.

Shen Yan sent a message to Chen Shanni: "My grandma sent the peace charm over, you have time to go to the residential complex's guard station to pick it up."

Chen Shanni: "Okay! Thank Grandma for me (smiley face)"

"Remember to put it inside the pillowcase."

"Mm-hmm!"

After finishing the things on hand, Shen Yan looked over toward Wu Yueer.

Ha! The little girl was playing quite enthusiastically, it's just that her accuracy was lacking; the Angry Bird didn't hit the green-headed pig.

Clearly, this level had stumped Wu Yueer for quite some time, and after failing again, she was so angry she was scratching her head and cheeks.

Shen Yan pointed out the way for her, saying: "You have to hit the edge of the stone block below; once it collapses, you can take care of all the green-headed pigs at once."

"Is it here?"

"Right!"

Wu Yueer tried it according to the method Shen Yan indicated, and sure enough, after calculating the angle, the building collapsed all at once, and she cleared the level with a Samsung rating.

"Yay!" Wu Yueer happily made a V-sign.

Shen Yan smiled faintly, and since he had nothing better to do, he just watched her play, pointing things out from time to time, or doing it himself if that didn't work.

"How are you so stupid! You can't even hit this."

"Then you do it!"

After being scolded, Wu Yueer wasn't angry; she handed over the phone with a grin. Shen Yan calculated the angle slightly, the fiery red bird shot out, and in an instant, the target was wiped out.

"Eh! Shen Yan, I've discovered that you're so amazing at everything." Wu Yueer's eyes rippled with light, making it impossible to guess what she was thinking.

"Don't be obsessed with me, I'm just a legend."

"Giggle!"

Lin Yang on the side was truly longing for her, wishing he could replace Shen Yan; his good buddy had actually become brothers with the goddess, leaving him alone on the side.

What a miserable state of affairs!

He never dreamed there would be such a day.

Xiao Chuchu, who was also in the last row, took it all in. She "tsk-ed," this Wu Yueer really had ulterior motives, approaching Shen Yan under the guise of being a good buddy; she was a total schemer.

She had to stir up some trouble for her.

So Xiao Chuchu took the initiative to lean in close to Lin Yang and whispered, "Lin Yang, do you think Wu Yueer likes Shen Yan? Otherwise, why does she always hover around him?"

Lin Yang curled his lip; he had never been interested in this Xiao Chuchu and said bluntly, "You're overthinking it, they're just good buddies."

"That's not necessarily true. Shen Yan is so outstanding in every way, he has a fatal attraction to girls."

"Yue'er is different; she isn't an ordinary girl."

From the probing question just now, Lin Yang had already obtained the answer he wanted and believed it firmly.

How could a great beauty as lovely as a flower like Wu Yueer foolishly like someone who already has a girlfriend?

Hearing this, Xiao Chuchu couldn't help but roll her eyes; with that kind of emotional intelligence and discernment, no wonder he was being played in circles by Wu Yueer, only able to follow behind like a pug.

Serves him right!
