Chapter 275: If Life Were Just Like The First Meeting, The First Meeting Would Be A Lifetime
Five minutes later, Dragon Brother strolled down from upstairs, radiating refreshment.
As he stepped out of the dormitory, he bumped into Shen Meng Jie, whose face was plastered with shock.
Without thinking, he blurted out, “Did you take a shower that fast?”
“Does how fast I shower concern you?” she shot back, giving him a once-over and curiously asking, “How did you know I just got out of the shower?”
Shen Meng Jie paused for a second before pointing at his still-damp hair. “Duh, obviously I can see!”
Dragon Brother casually ruffled his tousled hair, not dwelling on the details too much. “What’s up?”
“I, um, came to find Huang Fei…” She actually wanted to warn Dragon Brother about the two buffoons, Ye Liang Chen and Xue Shao Hua.
But for some reason, her words morphed into a mission to find Huang Fei.
Hearing this, Dragon Brother chuckled, “I was wondering why Huang Fei seems to be giggling like a fool lately.”
“Almost made me think there was something off with his head…”
Shen Meng Jie rolled her eyes. “Why do you care?”
“I don’t, I’m off. You can contact Huang Fei yourself.” With that, he brushed past her, heading toward where the three little ones were.
Watching Dragon Brother’s departing figure, Shen Meng Jie opened her mouth to say something but ended up releasing a frustrated sigh, her expression souring.
She realized that no matter what, she always ended up losing control whenever she faced Dragon Brother…
The tactics that worked on other guys were utterly useless on him.
On the other side.
When Dragon Brother appeared in front of the three little ones, their faces expressed the same shock as Shen Meng Jie’s: “Did you shower that fast?”
Li Qing Xue, utterly flabbergasted, couldn’t help but ask outright.
Lin Wan Ning also found it hard to believe; at that rate, if it were them, they’d probably still be stripping down, with their hair not even wet yet!
Hu Yu Ying simply found it laughable, convinced Dragon Brother was playing a prank. Could a guy really shower that quickly?
“Look at you all being so surprised.” Dragon Brother thought it strange; it was just a quick shower, why did everyone act as if he achieved something monumental?
For a guy, showering = quick wash, very reasonable.
If the three little ones could hear Dragon Brother’s inner thoughts, they’d definitely proclaim with justice, “That’s totally unreasonable…”
As they walked, Hu Yu Ying spilled all her ideas about the online store to Dragon Brother.
She had been weighing it in her mind but wanted to run it by him first.
Honestly, after hearing Hu Yu Ying’s thoughts, Dragon Brother was a bit surprised because in his previous world, there were indeed methods to drive traffic to online stores through cashback techniques. (Even for the same item, people usually choose the one that’s cheaper, even if it’s just a one-yuan difference.)
And this eventually led to the rise of many third-party promotion platforms.
These platforms undoubtedly attracted customers with discounts.
The ultimate goal of coupons was, of course, driving up transaction volume.
As everyone knows, if an online store’s transaction volume increases, it results in greater traffic and more customers.
Traffic + Customers = Final Revenue.
Customers snagged discounts, promoters earned commissions, and the store gained traffic—a classic win-win scenario.
It’s easy to imagine that if cashback was executed well, the store’s traffic and ranking would both improve qualitatively. The profits from such growth would certainly be considerable.
Turns out, Hu Yu Ying later became a business goddess precisely because she had an ample and advanced mindset.
Many things grow from small beginnings.
When the online store was just starting and most people were still going with the flow, she had already thought of using cashback vouchers to increase store traffic.
Although applying that idea to running an online store might’ve been overkill…
“Do you think it could work, Dragon Brother?” Hu Yu Ying asked quietly.
Previously, when Dragon Brother took her to sell clothes, she wanted to price them at 25 yuan each, only to get a knock on the head for being greedy.
Dragon Brother had warned that drastically lowering market prices was akin to robbing others of their livelihoods, so Hu Yu Ying wanted to hear his opinion…
“Of course it could work; perhaps after you guys, a lot of others will start using similar methods to boost online store visibility in the long run.”
Upon hearing Dragon Brother’s confidence, Hu Yu Ying felt as if she’d just eaten honey; she was thrilled.
She had worked hard to prepare, knowing she had no trial-and-error costs compared to Li Qing Xue and Lin Wan Ning.
Qing Xue had a solid family background and her own advantages.
Wan Ning had musical talent that was through the roof, her future path would be anything but singular.
All Hu Yu Ying had was a little academic prowess and that’s it.
So whatever she did, she wanted to do her absolute best.
With Dragon Brother’s affirmation, she felt free to move ahead boldly.
With him as her support, she was at ease.
Gently taking Dragon Brother’s hand and giving it a slight shake.
A girl’s emotions are very straightforward like that.
Happy is happy, unhappy is unhappy.
Right now, Hu Yu Ying was using every ounce of her strength to convey to Dragon Brother just how happy she was.
Happiness is infectious, and Dragon Brother could feel the little girl’s vibe as he teased her fingers, saying, “Tomorrow’s a holiday.”
Hu Yu Ying’s face turned beet red at his words, tightly linking her fingers with his and softly replying, “Then we should head back early so I can tidy up the room.”
That wasn’t a question; it was a definitive statement.
Honestly, when Dragon Brother heard those words, his heart swelled with delight, and at the same time, he felt a twinge of mischief.
His mind was now filled with thoughts of stealing kisses from the little girl.
He could barely stand being this way.
Observing Dragon Brother’s energetic demeanor and Hu Yu Ying’s bashfulness, Li Qing Xue could only helplessly rub her forehead. “Dragon Brother, don’t you dare…”
But before she could finish, Lin Wan Ning clamped a hand over her mouth.
The handcuffs were already bought; if it weren’t for considering that Yu Ying should hook her brother’s innocent heart, she would have lured her silly brother to bed early and cleaned him out!
Casting a sly glance at her brother and Hu Yu Ying, she asked for so little—just a bit.
Although it was wrong, she found herself struggling to control her own desires.
Without tasting her brother at least once, her heart felt incomplete.
Some people are an encounter for a lifetime; there’s no explaining what’s good about it, but it just feels like no one else can replace them.
The minor mishap on the day she met Dragon Brother, but that little annoyance left her unable to find anything like it in anyone else.
Nor would there ever be someone to stand in front of her and shield her from all harm…
If only life were just like the first meeting; that first meeting would be a lifetime.
