Yan Shuyi: "Really?"
Yang Chen nodded and said, "Really! A man’s word is his bond."
Yan Shuyi nodded, released Yang Chen, and said, "Alright! Let’s settle it that way!"
"You go back, I’m leaving," Yang Chen said.
Yan Shuyi nodded and said, "Drive slowly and be careful on your way."
Watching Yang Chen’s departing figure, Yan Shuyi felt a touch of emotion as if she didn’t want him to leave her sight.
"I will definitely see you again. I believe we are destined!" Yan Shuyi muttered to herself.
...
The next day.
After finishing the morning rush, Yang Chen transformed into a delivery guy.
As soon as he logged into the delivery app, the platform pushed several orders his way.
Yang Chen was picky as always, rejecting all orders that had specific instructions.
Unknowingly, Yang Chen had rejected over 30 orders and finally selected a milk tea delivery order past eleven.
The note was simple, just the words "room temperature."
Most importantly, the order was to be delivered to Joy City.
Yang Chen thought he could take this chance to check on his business and meet the chairman of Joy City’s management company.
Soon, Yang Chen arrived at Joy City.
He parked his vehicle and went to find the customer with the milk tea.
Before long, Yang Chen found the buyer and was stunned.
Because the buyer Miss Zhang was Yan Shuyi’s best friend, Zhang Yingying, and at that moment, Yan Shuyi and Zhang Yingying were handing out milk tea to passersby.
Nearby the benches were piled high with milk teas, all from delivery orders.
Evidently, the two were casting a wide net, hoping to encounter Yang Chen again.
Setting everything else aside, Yan Shuyi’s thoughtfulness was commendable.
Yan Shuyi laughed heartily and arrogantly walked over to Yang Chen, holding out her phone to him with two fingers.
Yang Chen smiled, nodded, and added her as a friend as promised.
Zhang Yingying came over and said, "My god, it really worked! Handsome guy, Shuyi ordered 200 cups of milk tea, hoping to run into you again. Look at us, look at us, I feel sick from drinking so much, and we couldn’t finish it, so we had to give it to passersby. Some people don’t trust us and even refused, making us feel so awkward."
Yang Chen smiled and nodded, saying, "You’re really foolish!"
Yan Shuyi: "What else could we do? You didn’t leave me any contact information, so I could only order around that shop where you last delivered hoping to get lucky. Seems like my luck isn’t bad or we are indeed destined, meeting you again. Do you have time now? I can invite you shopping, is that alright?"
Yang Chen wasn’t interested in shopping, but he wanted to see the foot traffic at Joy City, so he nodded and agreed to wander around with Yan Shuyi and Zhang Yingying.
"Alright, then I should thank you," replied Yang Chen with a smile.
Yan Shuyi nodded happily, and at that moment, her mom called her.
She answered the phone and asked, "Mom, what’s up?"
Wang Fang: "Shuyi, it’s a bit tough on my end. Why don’t you meet our vice principal’s son? Just humor him, then claim no interest and leave. Rank has its privileges, you understand mom’s difficulty. Alright?"
Yan Shuyi was reluctant, but her mom had to face the vice principal, which was indeed challenging.
So she said, "Alright! Tell him I’m at Joy City and let him come to find me."
Wang Fang: "Okay! Thank you Shuyi."
Yan Shuyi: "Mom, why are you telling me this? I’m going shopping with Yang Chen; ask him to come find me."
Wang Fang: "Ah? Is Yang Chen there too? Then explain to him, don’t let him misunderstand."
Yan Shuyi: "I know, he’s very easy to talk to, you don’t have to worry."
Wang Fang: "Alright! Ugh... Mom was too rash; I shouldn’t have tried to connect with the vice principal’s family. Sigh..."
Wang Fang hung up the phone and promptly called Vice Principal Zhang Guilan.
Then Zhang Guilan called her son Guo Liang, asking him to come to Joy City to meet and chat with Yan Shuyi.
Yan Shuyi said to Yang Chen, "My blind date will come over later, help me deal with it. Once we get rid of him, I’ll give you a pair of AJ as a thank-you. Okay?"
Yang Chen: "Since we are destined, I am willing to help you. But you need to make it clear, don’t waver."
Yan Shuyi: "Rest assured! I’ll be straightforward. Even if he’s a banana who gave up nationality and looked like Wu Yanzu, I wouldn’t be interested in him. Let’s go shopping."
There aren’t any top luxury brands like LV here, but plenty of other brands like Uniqlo, and Mark Fairwhale.
The price of an LV bag could instead kit you out with a complete outfit here.
So, it’s a good shopping spot for typical white-collar and salary workers.
This is why Joy City has become a major local commercial real estate project in Hai City.
After all, the world still has more middle and lower-class people, they are the mainstream.
Watching the bustling tourists, Yang Chen nodded with satisfaction.
Zhang Yingying laughed and said, "Yang Chen, why do I feel like you’re a leader inspecting the work instead of shopping? Your presence is wasted if you’re not in leadership!"
Yang Chen quickly restrained his demeanor and replied with a smile, "It’s my first time, pardon me."
