Chapter 370: Boss Qin is generous

The last month had arrived.

With another cold wave hitting, this winter was generally colder across the country than in previous years.

While everyone complained about the weather, a long-circulating folk rumor also became a hot topic of discussion.

That was the Maya prophecy about the end of the world, claiming that on December 21st of this year, a major catastrophe would occur on Earth, and human civilization would meet its end.

Since the Maya had five major prophecies and the first four were considered fulfilled, there were quite a few people around the world who believed in this one.

But the vast majority of people still preferred to believe in science, treating it merely as a topic for after-dinner conversation.

Qin Tian had already experienced it once, so naturally, he knew this was a ridiculous lie, and he knew even better that nothing would happen on the 21st; it would be as peaceful as could be.

After dinner at the canteen, the sky had completely darkened.

Qin Tian and Xia Nuannuan, dressed in warm clothes, were taking a walk on campus.

"Brother, do you believe the end of the world is really coming?"

Xia Nuannuan asked with a smile after hearing a few senior students walking past discussing the topic.

"I don't believe it!"

"Why not?"

"Because... I still want to walk through the long years with you."

Qin Tian answered with a warm smile.

Xia Nuannuan was stunned upon hearing this, her gaze lingering on him with a touch of infatuation.

"Don't worry, even if the end of the world really comes, I will definitely stay by your side."

Qin Tian raised his hand and affectionately ruffled her hair with a smile.

"Mmm!"

Xia Nuannuan squinted her eyes slightly and responded, hugging his arm tighter, and whispered in a voice only the two of them could hear: "As long as you are by my side, I'm not afraid of anything."

"Whew... it's really cold this year!"

"Yeah, it's a pity the house isn't renovated yet, otherwise it would be nice to curl up on the sofa and watch TV over there."

"It'll be very soon. It should be done before the New Year, and then after two months of airing it out, we can move in."

"Heehee... I hope the end of the world doesn't come. If it has to come, let it be later; I still want to live in our new house."

Xia Nuannuan said with a smile.

Just as Qin Tian was about to say something, his phone in his pocket suddenly rang.

He took out his phone and glanced at the caller ID; it was Zhao Mingyuan.

"Hello, Brother Zhao!"

Qin Tian answered the call directly.

"Little Brother Qin, the branch near your school is opening this weekend. See if you have time to go over with your classmates to join in the fun and play!"

Zhao Mingyuan got straight to the point.

"So fast? Sure, I'll definitely go."

Qin Tian agreed.

Zhao Mingyuan was full of entrepreneurial enthusiasm now; in just over a month, he had opened four more stores.

This time, the store was located on a street not far from Jiangcheng University, only a ten-minute walk away.

When preparing to open this branch, Zhao Mingyuan had already talked to him about it, but it had only been half a month; he didn't expect it to be opening already.

"It's because all the processes are familiar now, and the location was chosen a long time ago, so it's very fast to set up."

Zhao Mingyuan said with a laugh.

"That's also because you have great ability, Brother Zhao; your efficiency is incredibly fast."

Qin Tian hurriedly offered a compliment.

After all, he was a hands-off boss who didn't do anything and left everything to Zhao Mingyuan to handle, so he still felt quite embarrassed and had to take every opportunity to flatter him.

"Hahaha... don't flatter me too much. If you feel embarrassed, just bring more people to liven up the place."

"That's no problem. We're class monitors, after all; if we shout out to our classmates, plenty of people will definitely be willing to go."

"That's great."

After chatting for a few more sentences, the two hung up the phone.

"Do you want me to tell the girls?"

Xia Nuannuan asked with a sweet smile.

"No need, I'll just post a message in the group."

Qin Tian smiled, opened the class group, edited a message, and sent it out, telling everyone the time and address of the branch opening and promising that everyone could surf for free that day.

After the message was sent, the class group immediately boiled over.

"Holy crap, is this your internet cafe, Brother Tian? You opened another branch?"

"Anyone playing Dungeon & Fighter? Let's go together!"

"Play that crap game? What's fun about a pay-to-win game? League of Legends, let's go."

"I've never been to a high-end internet cafe, a free trial is too good."

"Handsome, generous Boss Qin, can you give us a few more days of free internet cards?"

"We definitely have to check out the store owned by our class, I've been curious for a long time. Sisters, let's charge together!"

……

"See, that's all it took."

Qin Tian browsed the messages in the group and grinned at Xia Nuannuan beside him.

Xia Nuannuan smiled and teased with her big eyes blinking: "Boss Qin is generous."

"Are you teasing me? Come here, little girl, let the boss give you a kiss."

Qin Tian looked at her playful and cute appearance, reached out his hands to cup her face, and gave her a loud kiss.

"Hey, what are you doing!"

Xia Nuannuan touched the non-existent saliva on her face and raised her hand, pretending to hit him.

"Haha..."

Qin Tian laughed triumphantly, like a rogue who had taken advantage of someone, and took off running.

"Stop, don't run!"

Xia Nuannuan shouted and chased after him.

On campus, the two's laughter and joy spread, drawing many envious and jealous gazes from students.

……

……

Compared to the bullshit end of the world that wouldn't come anyway, Qin Tian was more concerned about his own life.

The life countdown he had redeemed a few months ago had only a few days left.

According to the system's settings, once the countdown ended, his soul as a reborn person would likely be sent back to the timeline before his rebirth.

Qin Tian absolutely could not let such an absurd thing happen; he'd rather just jump off the tenth floor and be done with it.

The remaining system points were 888, which could be redeemed for another 37 days, so he wasn't in that much of a hurry.

Additionally, his current wealth value was enough to redeem quite a bit of time.

Of course, unless it was a last resort, he didn't want to use money to buy his life; it felt too strange.

It was like a terminally ill person desperately handing over all the money they had earned in a lifetime to the hospital; the only difference was that he was handing it to the system.

It was just that the system tasks, which hadn't appeared for a long time, made him feel a bit helpless.

Although there were still two tasks left unfinished, it wouldn't hurt to have one more!

As the saying goes, things shouldn't happen more than three times!

Perhaps the system sensed his resentment, because a task really did come.

In the blink of an eye, it was the weekend, the day the internet cafe branch opened.

In the morning, just as Qin Tian was preparing to take the boys from the dorm to the internet cafe, the system task notification sound rang in his head.

【System task triggered: A boss who is always hands-off is not a good boss. Please, host, play your part today and maximize the first-day revenue of the internet cafe branch. Task rewards will increase as revenue increases!】

Qin Tian was stunned for a long time, then looked at everyone with an awkward expression and tentatively suggested: "Um... let's discuss something. Can we not have free internet today? How about another day?"

The boys looked at each other, then let out a chorus of disappointed boos.

"Not going, no money, I'll just sleep!"

"No way, Boss Qin, you're being too stingy, right?"

"This is no fun!"

"What the hell, wasn't there a promise of free trial cards?"

……

"Alright, alright, free, free, but everyone do me a favor."

Qin Tian said helplessly.

"What favor?"

"Do you have friends in other classes or anything? Call them all over."

"Then they get free internet too?"

Zhang Lang asked in surprise.

Qin Tian glared at him.

"What are you thinking? If you call the whole school over to take turns surfing for free, how am I supposed to make money?" ===== CHAPTER 371 =====
