Chapter 60: Revised: Chapter 39 [Goodbye, Lu Sisi]_2

Chen Yan rephrased: "I want to ask you to first talk to the owner. If they want money, help me negotiate a cash compensation price.

If they want the property, then help me find your manager to handle this matter.

It’s a two-choice situation. You help me with the negotiations since you’re an insider and understand the intricacies better than I do.

Although I’m willing to compensate and can offer more, I don’t want to be taken advantage of. You get what I mean?"

Lao Hu suddenly understood: "Hmm, put this way, I get it, but..."

Chen Yan waved his hand: "I won’t let you work for free. I’ll give you ten thousand yuan as a hardship fee, okay?"

Hu Shangke was about to say "Just running an errand, no need for that much," but Chen Yan waved his hand again, indicating for him not to speak.

"I give you ten thousand, and I’ll offer another ten thousand for you to give to the tenant of this house, the junior studying civil engineering.

The house is wrecked, and he’ll need to find a new place to stay. The landlord definitely won’t return the deposit. There weren’t many of his belongings in the house; I checked, just some old clothes.

I’ll cover all these losses, totaling ten thousand yuan."

Hu Shangke nodded: "That’s more than enough. He had a little under half a year left on the lease. With the rent and deposit for this shabby place combined, six or seven thousand at most. You’re giving extra."

"Consider the extra for emotional distress."

Chen Yan transferred twenty thousand yuan to Lao Hu on the spot, ten thousand as Lao Hu’s fee, and ten thousand for the civil engineering junior.

"You negotiate this for me. Let me know the outcome, and I’ll take full responsibility."

Leaving this mess to Hu Shangke, Chen Yan walked away.

·

Originally, he planned to take a taxi back to the villa, but since he was already in University City, he remembered the messages sent by Lu Sisi...

He hesitated, then decided to go to University City. Initially, he intended to go directly to Lu Sisi’s school. Halfway there, he remembered that Xiaozhao had messaged him a few days ago asking for his address. He must have something to discuss.

Since he was already in University City, he decided to meet up with Xiaozhao first.

Chen Yan wasn’t someone who valued romantic interests over friends, so he returned to his own school first.

As he neared the boys’ dormitory, he spotted Xiaozhao pacing back and forth near a utility pole with a hesitating expression that looked like he was constipated.

Chen Yan walked up and patted his shoulder, making President Zhao jump. Seeing Chen Yan, he quickly covered Chen Yan’s mouth and dragged him behind the dormitory.

"What’s wrong? Acting like a thief."

"Hush!"

Xiaozhao steadied himself, looking awkward.

"What’s going on?" Chen Yan grew more curious.

Xiaozhao pointed to a distant spot by the roadside, whispering, "Look!"

Chen Yan peeked out and glanced.

By the roadside, near the girls’ dormitory, stood two girls. Clearly, they were the common school pair of "Red Flower and Green Leaf."

One girl had a well-proportioned figure, long flowing hair, and decent features, at least qualifying as a cutie.

As for the other, not much needed to be said.

Because traditionally, in the "Red Flower and Green Leaf" pair, the friend of the pretty girl was either a tank or a tomboy, sometimes both.

Chen Yan laughed and asked, "Which one do you like?"

Xiaozhao glared at Chen Yan: "What do you think?"

Chen Yan laughed: "If you like her, go talk to her."

"I... I don’t know how." Xiaozhao, red-faced, stammered: "Bro, teach me."

Chen Yan paused: "Do you think I know how? I’ve never dated anyone."

"Stop lying! Xiaopang told me after delivering something to you that there’s a pretty girl in your room."

Chen Yan shook his head: "We’re studying together. I’m tutoring a freshman junior."

Xiaozhao looked at Chen Yan wistfully: "Bro, did you forget that you’ve already graduated?"

Chen Yan: "..."

"Even if you hadn’t graduated, bro... you’ve flunked more exams than I have. What can you possibly tutor?"

Chen Yan’s face stiffened: "Do you want me to teach you or not?"

"I do!"

Chen Yan slowly said: "Just go up. Remember, be confident, composed, and a bit casual. First, grab her attention, then just openly ask for her WeChat. Once you’ve connected, you can chat more later."

"Confident, composed, casual... How do I embody these traits to attract her attention?"

Chen Yan whispered something into Xiaozhao’s ear.

Xiaozhao’s eyes widened: "Bro, don’t fool me. I didn’t study much!"

Chen Yan assertively: "Remember, I’ve already spent time alone with a freshman girl in a small room. Believe me or not."

Xiaozhao took a deep breath, hesitated, then finally clenched his teeth and marched forward.

When he reached the two girls, Xiaozhao deliberately stopped and coughed loudly.

The girls, chatting, looked up upon hearing the noise, their attention caught.

Then...

Xiaozhao suddenly jumped up and did an air basketball shot!

Even making a "swish" sound with his mouth.

Girl A: "..."

Girl B: "..."

After two seconds, the girls burst into laughter!

The pretty girl laughed so hard she almost bent over to the ground.

Xiaozhao was dumbfounded and instinctively looked back at Chen Yan...

Chen Yan turned and ran!

·

Hmph, that’s for saying I flunk exams often!

·

Chen Yan ran more than two hundred meters in one go. With his enhanced physical condition after starting Primordial Qi Nourishing, Xiaozhao wouldn’t catch him even with two more legs.
