Chapter 285: Chapter 236: Revealing the Identity of QQ Tycoon (Seeking Monthly Tickets!)_2 Chapter 285: Chapter 236: Revealing the Identity of QQ Tycoon (Seeking Monthly Tickets!)_2 Peering at Chen Jieyu as she wore her gold-rimmed glasses with a slight frown, Cheng Zhu couldn’t help but say, “Have you been told that you actually look quite serious when you’re expressionless or frowning?”

“Uh,” Chen Jieyu caught his gaze for a moment before slowly nodding her head.

She thought he might be somewhat put off by it.

That would make sense, wouldn’t it? It would certainly add a sense of distance.

Others might be all lovey-dovey at times like these, faces full of attachment, but not her.

After all, she was of the mature woman age group; though she hadn’t experienced much herself, she had definitely seen enough TV shows and movies to know about those sweet scenes.

“Men probably prefer that kind of woman, don’t they?” she mused.

Little did she know that Cheng Zhu actually favored her seriousness, desired her ascetic demeanor.

Upon those moments when a strong contrast burst forth from her, any normal man’s heart would swell with an unparalleled sense of achievement.

Up to now, today, she had already revealed that stark contrast five times on the sofa and coffee table.

Damn, what man wouldn’t love that?

What man wouldn’t be hooked?

“I see you’re lost in thought again. On the contrary, it’s because of this that I find your temperament stands out,” Cheng Zhu complimented her, a rarity for him.

Unfortunately, Chen Jieyu had already come to regard the words he said in bed as “not to be trusted, not even a punctuation mark!”

Yet for some reason, her heart still stirred with unusual emotions.

At that moment, Cheng Zhu’s phone vibrated several times.

He leaned slightly to pick it up and take a look.

Honestly, at times like this, he was quite apprehensive about checking WeChat messages.

He had no idea who was looking for him.

Upon opening the app, to his surprise, it was from his dormitory group chat, Room 309.

Dorm leader Dong Dong was frantically tagging him.

“Brother Zhu, what are you up to?” he asked.

Cheng Zhu: “…”

Could he possibly tell you?

If you guys knew, wouldn’t your heads just buzz and explode!

He glanced at Chen Jieyu, noting that she was simply watching TV quietly, seemingly not inquisitive about who was messaging him.

To her, Cheng Zhu being busy with messages was a usual affair.

Cheng Zhu had made several phone calls that afternoon, arranging various work matters, and also communicated with the factory.

Being a woman of her age, with her own job, long past the age of thinking herself the center of the universe, where everything should prioritize her, even when you’re busy.

She understood the importance as well as the hardships of work.

He was already squeezing time out of his work to accompany her. What more could she ask for?

Isn’t it said that older women know how to care for others?

The mature woman was finally becoming sensible.

Of course, her upbringing and environment where she grew up also played a role.

She wasn’t the kind of person who’d make a fuss or behave capriciously in front of men.

Great, isn’t it?

Cheng Zhu looked at her, smiling, “It’s Dong Dong, someone from the dorm is asking what I’m doing, probably something going on, I guess there’s juicy news to share.”

Chen Jieyu’s alarm bells suddenly went off.

Their current situation was essentially them doing “bad things” behind the scenes.

Thus, her vigilance was high, attentive to every little movement.

Cheng Zhu simply typed in the group chat: “Are you sick, @ing me five times, out with it if you have something to say!”

Sure enough, just as he thought, Dong Dong posted a forum thread from the school’s bulletin board into the group.

The content was about Xu Shao and Pei Yan already hyping up for taking over “Youu Come to Play,” preheating their first batch of activities after the takeover.

In a couple of days, “Youu Come to Play” would belong to them, and Cheng Zhu would no longer be the claw machine store owner.

But surprisingly, they seemed quite eager, starting to hype it up already.

“The two buyers of my claw machine store are already promoting it,” Cheng Zhu said to Chen Jieyu.

“Huh? But isn’t the shop not transferred yet?” Chen Jieyu was aware of the specific timeline.

“Yeah, these two are quite impatient,” he said with a laugh.

Cheng Zhu took a quick look; the activities were fairly standard, focusing on customer retention and maintenance of regulars.

The counselor suddenly chimed in, “I also saw a forum post about the claw machine store earlier, and it felt like the words posted were leading you on, with some comments being quite sarcastic and weird.”

“I know, something like: ‘The shop has changed owners, it’s just not the same,'” he laughed.

“You seem quite indifferent?” she asked.

“Yeah, the more these people jump now, the harder their faces will be slapped later on,” he said nonchalantly.

Chen Jieyu had visited the claw machine store twice and knew just how fatal its attraction was to the female consumer group.

It was hard not to go there and check it out.

“Why don’t you see if these activities they are running are any good,” said Cheng Zhu as he passed his phone to her, pulling her into his embrace, one hand resting on her pert buttocks.

Chen Jieyu quickly glanced at the phone and recalling what Cheng Zhu had told her before, she said, “There’s some merit to it.”

“Smart!” Cheng Zhu praised her, his hand patting her right buttock, triggering ripples.

“They kind of stumbled onto a path that seems right for now,” he added.
