Jiao Yushi didn’t even think about her suggestion before saying, “Sure.”

His tone was extremely casual.

Chacha was surprised. She originally thought she would have to spend some time convincing him, but she didn’t expect him to agree immediately.

He didn’t even think about.

Chacha didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. “Student Jiao Yushi, aren’t you being too hasty?”

Jiao Yushi asked back, “Am I?”

Chacha nodded. “Yes. I only said one sentence and you immediately agreed. You didn’t even ask a single question about the game plan, development direction, and the likes. Don’t you think you’re being rash?”

Jiao Yushi said, “This is out of trust in you.”

Chacha butted heads with him. “Trusting people casually is also very rash.”

Jiao Yushi tolder her, “I don’t think I’m being rash, but rather that you lack confidence in yourself. You’ve gain millions of followers in just over two months. Not only are you able to manage it, you even opened a media company and has developed people well. I don’t think you’ll make such a request without any preparation.”

Chacha spread her hands. “I’m not really prepared, I only thought of it two days ago.”

And regarding Weibo, she really didn’t do much business and relied entirely on luck.

Jiao Yushi showed a very shallow smile. “I believe you will prepare well for this matter next time. If your answer is still negative, then you can find someone else to partner with, I don’t mind.”

Chacha chuckled. “How can that be? I’ll prepare well. For the specifics, take some time to have a meal with me when you’re free and we can have a good discussion.”

Jiao Yushi replied, “Tomorrow.”

Chacha asked, “Is seven o’clock tomorrow night okay?”

Jiao Yushi said, “Yes.”

Chacha made an appointment with Jiao Yushi, then said goodbye and returned to the private room. When the people inside saw her coming back, they were silent for a moment, and then started dancing wildly again.

Everyone was having a great time. Tomorrow was the weekend and a holiday, so the thought of it made them even more joyful.

As the night wore on, everyone was pretty much done eating, drinking and playing, and the music had also been turned off. The private room had quieted down and Chacha asked, “Do you guys want to go for a walk around the bar?”

Vice President Liao Boyi waved his hands quickly and said with a wry smile, “I won’t go. I’m an old man and can’t stay up late. You young people can go play and have fun. Tomorrow’s a holiday so you don’t need to worry about not being able to get up early.”

He’s actually only about forty years old, plus he works out regularly and eats healthily so he appeared like he’s in his early thirties and doesn’t even come close to being an old man.

But he likes to keep in good health and doesn’t like to stay up late.

Those who have lovers raised their hands one after another, stating that they also weren’t going. They need to go home or else their sweethearts would beat them up.

Liao Boyi wouldn’t go and neither those people who exude the sour smell of love, so there weren’t many people left. With so many absent, even if the remaining singles wanted to go, they were too embarrassed as there were just a few of them. So they all expressed that they were just going home to sleep.

Chacha saw that no one wanted to go and said nothing more.

Everyone went back to their own homes.

The next day, Chacha got up at dawn, washed up and had breakfast. Once she was done, she turned on the computer and wrote a plan after doing some research.         

Since she had only thought of ​​cooperating with Jiao Yushi some time ago, she really still hadn’t prepared anything.

Moreover, her current idea was also very simple, which was to sign Ning An first. She only had a rough plan for the overall direction of the company.

Their appointment was at 7 this evening, so she would be very busy.

———pr

Chacha wasn’t the only one who’s busy, Jiao Yushi was as well.

After he got up in the morning, he turned on his laptop, made his plans, and looked for information. To start a new company, initial capital was indispensable.

At noon, Shi Qian called him.

“Yushi, come to Yusong. I’m so pissed right now. Come and play with me!”

“Okay, I’ll be there at half past two.”

“Hurry up, I’m being tortured to death by Du Siyuan, this scumbag. Come and help me get back at him!” Shi Qian’s voice showed signs of collapsing. Then, Du Siyuan’s voice mocking Shi Qian came from the other end of the phone, and the two soon began cursing at each other.

Jiao Yushi hung up the phone and took his laptop to Yusong Recreation Club.

As soon as Jiao Yushi arrived, the lobby manager greeted him warmly, “Good noon, Mr. Jiao. Have you eaten yet?”

Jiao Yushi froze, he indeed forgot to have lunch.

The lobby manager saw his expression and immediately said, “Would you like me to arrange lunch for you?”

Jiao Yushi nodded and said, “En, I’ll have sushi. Have it delivered to my lounge room.”

“Okay, I’ll go and arrange it now.”

“En, go ahead.”

Jiao Yushi went to his room and changed into sportswear.

His exclusive lounge became a shared space with his friends. They themselves have one as every member had a room of their own, however, they like to stay there with Jiao Yushi.

Firstly, it was convenient to gather together, and secondly, his lounge could provide a clear view of half of the city’s scenery, which was quite spectacular from a distance. It’s not that the other rooms weren’t good, it’s just that this one was particularly good.

Jiao Yushi was lucky. When he came there to sign up for membership, this much-sought-after lounge happened to be vacant and he picked it up.

His friends were playing at the moment so the room was quiet.

After changing his clothes, he headed for the indoor tennis court. Several of them especially like to play tennis and they usually gather in there.

The place was very spacious, with a good view, various equipment, and pleasant design style.

Shi Qian and others were playing inside. Jiao Yushi wasn’t familiar with some of the people inside but they would greet each other whenever they met.

The others didn’t like him much and even looked down on him a little. But they didn’t say anything rude, so Jiao Yushi didn’t bother with them and treated them like air.

Two beautiful girls were sitting in the resting area, watching the guys play.

They must’ve been brought by the other two people, as they like to take girls with them wherever they go.

Jiao Yushi walked to the resting area and sat down on the empty side. He took out his laptop and continued reading.

Shi Qian noticed Jiao Yushi’s arrival, but the game at hand wasn’t done yet. And Jiao Yushi was looking at the laptop screen intently, so Shi Qian didn’t immediately greeted him and call him to come and play.

After one round, he lost again.

His opponent, Du Siyuan, showed a mocking expression and said, “Xiao Shitou^[1]little stone, you’ll never be able to beat me in tennis in this life.”

Du Siyuan has a tough and masculine appearance, with a tall figure, beautiful muscles, and sharp facial features. Although he’s only nineteen years old, he gave off a feeling of someone who had already joined the society.

Shi Qian waved the racket in his hand and walked towards Jiao Yushi, saying, “Heh, Yushi’s here, can I still not beat you?”

Du Siyuan shook his head. “Only the weak will rely on others to win.”

Shi Qian smirked. “This is called effectively utilizing the resources around you.”

Luo Wenyao and Tao Yongchang courteously smiled from the side.

When they came in the court, they happened to meet Shi Qian and Du Siyuan and were roped in to make up the numbers.

Luo Wenyao was fine as he teamed up with Du Siyuan and won ten games in a row. It couldn’t be any more enjoyable.

But Tao Yongchang felt unwell. It’s as if Shi Qian was saying that he was weak and Jiao Yushi was strong.

Tao Yongchang had always disliked this only son of the Jiao family who suddenly appeared out of nowhere a few years ago. Saying that he disliked him was already mild. He really looked down on Jiao Yushi.

The other party hadn’t received a good education from childhood and live in the mountains with a group of equally despicable people. As soon as Jiao Yushi appeared, he used his power to bully others and sent them to the hospital——  Although the others were indeed the ones who started the fight.

Additionally, the other party had a cold face all day long.

Apart from his status as the only son of the Jiao family and his good appearance, there was nothing attractive about Jiao Yushi.

Although Tao Yongchang would greet him, he still didn’t want to have much contact with Jiao Yushi. In his opinion, people like Jiao Yushi, who had no merits except his family background, would lose all their wealth sooner or later, so there was no need to make friends with him.

However, he didn’t understand why Shi Qian and Du Siyuan took a special liking to Jiao Yushi.

Tao Yongchang felt upset and his words were thorny, “Oh, I didn’t know that the young master of the Jiao family is good at tennis.”

Luo Wenyao had similar thoughts with Tao Yongchang when it came to Jiao Yushi, but his words were more moderate, “Rumors like this always had an element of exaggeration.”

Shi Qian and Du Siyuan exchanged looks and saw the same mood in each other’s eyes——  These two were idiots.

Actually, the two of them weren’t particularly familiar with Tao Yongchang either. They just attended the same school before and would occasionally encounter each other at banquets. This time, the other two were just pulled in to make up the numbers.

Shi Qian said coolly, “What did I say that is exaggerated? Do you think I haven’t learned language well?”

“How can that be?” Luo Wenyao smiled and said, “I just haven’t seen Young Master Jiao play tennis before.”

Du Siyuan sat down beside Jiao Yushi and patted him on the shoulder. “In that case, Yushi, you can team up with Xiao Shitou and play a game with them. It’ll only take a few minutes.”

After saying that, he turned to Luo Wenyao and Tao Yongchang again with a particularly hearty smile. “You guys are lucky to see our Yushi’s skills.”

At this time, not only Tao Yongchang felt upset, but also Luo Wenyao, who had won ten games in a row.

Du Siyuan was insinuating that they’d lose in only a few minutes.

“Alright, I want to see how good Young Master Jiao’s skills are.”

“Don’t lose, we’ll be disappointed.”

The two people were provoked and immediately talked back.

Jiao Yushi didn’t say much to them. He got up, took Du Siyuan’s racket, and walked into the court with Shi Qian without even bothering to throw the other two a look.

Tao Yongchang and Luo Wenyao were furious but they didn’t want to yell ungracefully, so they could only silently plan to teach the country bumpkin a lesson.

When Jiao Yushi stopped, he turned to look at Shi Qian and told him, “Just stand on the side.”

Shi Qian smiled and said shamelessly, “Alright. I haven’t enjoyed the pleasure of winning while lying down for a long time. You have to work harder and let me eat soft rice^[2]to live off a woman; in this case, to rely on Jiao Yushi’s support, hehehe.”

When the two people who had just walked to the opposite side heard his words, they got angry at Shi Qian, who they didn’t dislike at first, feeling that the other party had become really stinky.

Also, people who would regard a country bumpkin like Jiao Yushi as a brother weren’t that smart.

Shi Qian said, “The rules are, whoever scores ten points first wins. One point is deducted for not catching the ball and the other team will also get one point.”

Du Siyuan shouted, “I’ll do the scoring!”

In the previous game, the ball fell on Jiao Yushi’s side of the court, so he picked it up and hit it towards the opposite side, saying, “You guys serve first.”

“Okay.” Tao Yongchang gritted his teeth and the anger in his eyes could no longer be concealed.

Whoever serves first had an advantage. As long as the angle was tricky, the ball would be particularly difficult to catch. In this way, there’s a high probability of scoring a point first.
