Everything I bought on online shopping platforms was genuine.

Chapter 1156 Internet Cafe Owner: You beast, you fucking beast!

Actually, it can't be said that Zhang Wei is lucky. He's never been lucky at all. Before, when the three of them went out to buy drinks, he never won the "buy one get one free" prize.

He used up all his luck on meeting Miss Yuan; after all, since meeting Miss Yuan, Zhang Wei's life has become much more hopeful.

Zhang Wei is much better off now than last year. Last year, his salary was barely enough to afford dating, but now at least he dares to try.

I was promoted to team leader, my salary increased, and I also have extra income from self-media, so my income has become quite considerable.

Inside the private room, Zhang Wei was led out by Director Wang, while Chuan Mei sneaked to the front desk on the first floor.

"Ahem, beautiful lady, is there something we can discuss in our private room?" the Sichuan girl said.

Upon hearing this, Zhang Xiaoli was taken aback.

"Sir, we have dedicated waiters here, you..."

Since becoming famous, the Sichuan girl has been wearing a mask like celebrities when she goes to public places, only taking it off when there are few people around. She did the same when she came to this internet cafe, so Zhang Xiaoli naturally didn't recognize her.

Before she could finish speaking, the Sichuan girl leaned over the front desk and pulled her mask down: "It's me, Li Shiya~ Shh~~"

Zhang Xiaoli was stunned for a while before she spoke, "Who is Li Shiya? Do we know each other?"

Sichuan girl:.

How embarrassing! It was the first time he tried to show off using Li Shiya's identity, and he got slapped in the face. It felt like he had been slapped in the face himself.

"Ahem, I'm an internet celebrity. You can find out by searching me online. I'm not a scammer," the Sichuan girl began her lengthy explanation to the young woman at the front desk.

It took Zhang Xiaoli a while to accept the identity of the Sichuan girl.

"So you're him! I've seen you online, but I didn't follow you," Zhang Xiaoli grinned.

Hearing this made the Sichuan girl even more upset, but thinking about it, she could understand. After all, there are so many people in China, you can't expect everyone you meet to be a fan. If you've seen his videos online, it already means he has a pretty good influence.

"It's good that you've seen it. I'm really not a liar. I just wanted to discuss something with you beforehand," the Sichuan girl whispered.

After much persuasion, Zhang Xiaoli finally agreed to come over. She asked another waitress to help her look after the place, and then went upstairs with Chuanmei.

"They've come in, they've come in! Please come in!"

Miss Yuan, the class monitor, and He Xiaoyue quickly stood up to greet them, since girls are easier to talk to.

"Hey~ Do you still remember me?" Miss Yuan stood at the front, hands on her hips, looking excited.

Seeing this, Zhang Xiaoli nodded: "You're the one who came to the internet cafe with Wei Ge. The three of you used to come here often last year. Oh? Where's the other person? Why isn't he here?"

Upon hearing this, everyone burst into laughter. Lin Mo stood up and said, "That's me. Wei Ge and I are regulars here. I even have a membership!"

"You? You don't look like it! I remember you."

But before she could finish speaking, the Sichuan girl, who had taken off her mask, blurted out, "He went to South Korea for plastic surgery, don't worry about him. By the way, he's still that 'Hand Brother' that people are talking about online!"

“That’s Brother Shou! Several of the other girls in our shop are his fans!” Zhang Xiaoli said with a smile.

Sichuan girl:? ? ?

"No, shouldn't they be my fans?"

"No, they do follow you, but they don't like you. They follow you only to see 'Brother Hand,' which is said to be a rich woman's happy hand!" Zhang Xiaoli said.

Sichuan girl:.

Lin Mo:

"Rich woman's happy hand" is an old term, it feels like something from a dark history.

For the Sichuan girl, today was a disaster.

He tried to show off his status as a popular internet celebrity with millions of followers, but he was proven wrong. The few girls who finally started paying attention to him turned out to be fans of Lin Mo.

"No way, how come he has fans without even revealing his platform account?!" Chuanmei exclaimed, completely losing her composure.

In response, Miss Yuan immediately reached out and shoved him aside, saying, "Shut up! Okay, you've done your job. Go eat the fruit platter!"

With that, he kicked the Sichuan girl aside, then looked at Lin Mo and said, "So, are you going to do it or should I?"

"Um, you, let me do it," Lin Mo said after thinking for a moment.

If we let Miss Yuan come, who knows what outrageous things she might say? As for having the class monitor and the other two girls speak, it's their first time meeting this girl, and at least she has some impression of him.

Thinking of this, he cleared his throat and said, "Come on, don't be nervous, have a seat."

After Zhang Xiaoli sat down, he asked, "Do you have a boyfriend?"

Zhang Xiaoli: ? ? ?

"Huh? No, no!"

Lin Mo: "That's good. We called you up here to ask if you have a boyfriend, and we wanted to play matchmaker for you. What do you think of Viagra?"

He seems to like you quite a bit. He's come over so many times and often tries to talk to you. Wei Ge is a bit shy and not very good with words, so we thought we'd help him out. If you think he's a good person, we'll tell you about him and you can get to know him. If you don't feel anything for him, then just consider it friendship; we don't mean anything by it.

Upon hearing this, Zhang Xiaoli blushed deeply and was somewhat at a loss for words. Seeing that she was about to refuse out of shyness, Lin Mo quickly continued:

"Don't be shy about refusing directly. If you had a partner, we would say no without hesitation, but you are single now, so I want you to think it over carefully. As for Wei Ge, he wants to find a partner and get married in the future, so he is definitely a good person."

Hey Li Shiya, with a top-tier internet celebrity as your after-sales service representative, it's easy for you to expose anyone you find problematic online.

"If you're interested in dating, then consider it. If you don't want to date right now, then forget it!" Lin Mo explained.

While there wasn't much useful information, it at least helped Zhang Xiaoli recover from her earlier embarrassment, because the people in the room were all very serious and didn't seem to be joking.

The private room fell silent. No one urged Zhang Xiaoli to hurry. They quietly handed her food and waited for the final answer.

Several minutes later, Zhang Xiaoli finally spoke: "I have an older brother, but he's already married. I also have a father, but he's getting old and his health isn't very good; he can't do heavy work anymore. My mother is gone."

“No problem, Wei Ge doesn’t care about this. Of course, if you don’t believe me, you can have him tell you himself later,” Lin Mo said with a delighted expression.

Since there was no direct rejection, there's a chance.

“Yes, yes, the fat guy doesn’t care about that. I just asked him. You can see for yourself,” Miss Yuan said, holding up her phone.

The screen above showed the two people's chat box. Zhang Wei replied that it was nothing.

Seeing this, Zhang Xiaoli breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "Can you tell me about him?" This is where Miss Yuan excels, and she immediately replied, "Sister, you've hit the nail on the head."

I know Fatty well; I've known him since I was a kid. He's absolutely reliable. We used to work at his girlfriend's company. Don't get me wrong, it wasn't his girlfriend's company back then. This bastard is a gigolo who's dating his boss.

The fat guy, on the other hand, became the team leader through his own efforts, and there is a lot of room for promotion online in the future.

As for my salary, it was already over 5,000 yuan at the time. It should have increased after I was promoted to team leader, but I haven't asked how much it increased. Now I'm also doing self-media with Li Shiya, and we have hundreds of thousands of followers. Our monthly income is not bad.

"If you two get together, I suggest—and I just suggest—that you two work together. Don't worry about work; just tell his girlfriend tonight, and you can start work next Monday. 8 am to 5 pm, weekends off. Oh, and I haven't asked how much your salary is yet?"

Zhang Xiaoli: "Three thousand, two hundred for full attendance, two shifts!"

"That's definitely better than what you're doing now. He's an only child, so he can at least get a down payment for a house when he gets married. Of course, if he does well in social media, he might be able to buy a house outright in no time."

"You know what I look like," Miss Yuan asked.

This internet cafe is considered high-end, but the salaries of its staff vary considerably.

Those attractive young ladies who provide companionship services can earn tens of thousands of yuan a month, but receptionists like Zhang Xiaoli, who only need to turn on the computer, only get a fixed salary each month.

"We don't need this for now," Zhang Xiaoli said somewhat embarrassedly.

Even if she really wanted to get to know Zhang Wei, she didn't want to give the impression that she was after a better job.

Upon hearing this, Lin Mo pressed his advantage: "So, you agree to make contact first?"

After a long silence, Zhang Xiaoli nodded somewhat shyly.

The next second, cheers erupted in the room, comparable to a five-kill or a chicken dinner, deafeningly loud, and several people jumped up at the same time.

"That's great! It's really not easy!" Lin Mo exclaimed, pounding the chair.

Miss Yuan also pounded her chest and stamped her feet: "Yes, Fatty finally has someone who wants him, it's been so hard! Don't worry, sister, you're one of us now, I'll definitely protect you!"

The class monitor and He Xiaoyue were also very happy, especially He Xiaoyue, who waved her little fists. They had finally managed to get rid of this holdout. Zhang Wei's workload was equivalent to her organizing three social events.

"Quickly, call Zhang Wei back!" Miss Yuan shouted.

He then kicked the girl from Sichuan. The girl looked helpless, but still ran out to find Zhang Wei.

At this moment, Zhang Wei outside looked anxious, unsure of the outcome.

"Don't worry, Wei Ge, I feel there's a great chance. Besides, if it doesn't work out, so be it. We can just go to another internet cafe in the future," Director Wang said with a smile.

Zhang Wei smiled upon hearing this: "I'm not worried, really. What am I afraid of, a grown man like me? I've been rejected countless times, I'm experienced!"

Just then, the Sichuan girl ran out.

"Viagra, Viagra, you've succeeded! Haha!"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Wei's eyes widened: "It succeeded?"

Sichuan girl: "It's done, the girl has agreed to contact you!"

Zhang Wei: "Hahaha, I've succeeded as the Taoist Master! Haha~~"

He just said he wasn't nervous, but now he's smiling more happily than anyone else.

Soon, Zhang Wei returned, but he was a little hesitant and didn't dare to look at Zhang Xiaoli. Seeing this, Lin Mo stood up and said, "Brother Wei, why don't you chat with the girl? We'll go out first!"

"No, no need. I'll go out. You're here to use the internet. I have work to do outside," Zhang Xiaoli quickly got up and left.

Seeing this, Lin Mo quickly kicked Zhang Wei: "What are you looking at? Hurry up and come out with me! What, you want to stay and surf the internet?"

"Oh! Right, I'll go right now!" With that, Zhang Wei ran out as well.

After Zhang Wei left, He Xiaoyue stepped in. Although she wasn't very good at the game, it was impossible to play without her. She didn't know how to use the steel gun, and she didn't even know how to choose a healer to keep the player alive!

Two hours later, everyone lost their appetite while playing games and logged off. It was lunchtime, and after several people reassured and persuaded her, Zhang Xiaoli asked a friend to come and help her take over, since it wasn't time to change shifts yet.

After the group left, some staff came in to clean up, but their expressions immediately changed, and they called the boss over.

Soon, a middle-aged man with a slightly overweight build ran in; he was the owner of Xinxin Internet Cafe.

After entering, I went straight to the second floor and came to this private room. Then I asked the waiter next to me, "What's going on?"

Upon hearing this, the waiter pointed to the computer desk that the group had used, where a piece of paper and a pack of Yuxi cigarettes were placed.

The shopkeeper picked up the paper and frowned immediately. It read, "Sir, we've landed. We'd like to buy you a pack of cigarettes. We're so sorry!"

Upon seeing this, the owner's heart sank. He knew that what he feared most when running this high-end internet cafe was equipment damage. A few hundred or a thousand dollars for a mouse and keyboard was a minor issue, but if the monitor, graphics card, or other components were lost, his losses would amount to at least several thousand dollars, or even tens of thousands.

The boss immediately began to check in a flurry of activity.

"The gaming chair is intact, the 5080 is still here, the screen has no scratches, the robotic arm is intact, the mouse and keyboard are still here, the optical fiber is also intact, bro, what exactly did you do to me? What did you do wrong?!"

At this point, the boss was almost going crazy, tormented by an invisible pressure, but still couldn't find the problem.

When they arrived on the first floor, they discovered that the person at the front desk was not Zhang Xiaoli, but another staff member.

"Hey, where's Xiao Zhang?"

"It seems Xiao Zhang left after talking to his girlfriend. I heard the person say that Xiao Zhang was going to work somewhere else!" the substitute waiter said.

The words had barely left his mouth when the boss froze, then scrambled out to look around, but found no trace of him. He couldn't help but slap his thigh and curse, "You beast, you damn beast! You stole from my internet cafe manager, you deserve to die! You can steal my graphics card, but what kind of skill is it to steal from my internet cafe manager, you bastard!"

At this moment, the boss felt like the sky had fallen. First of all, although the receptionist's salary was not high, Zhang Xiaoli was a long-time employee who had been working there for almost two years.

He left so suddenly. Where is he going to find a stable employee with such a low salary? Nowadays, many network administrators only work for two months before leaving. The turnover rate is too high.

It doesn't matter if the pretty female gaming companions in the store are poached; he can always find some pretty girls to replace them, since the salary is high. But this cheap and good internet cafe manager is the only stable one. It's better to steal his graphics card. At least if he steals a graphics card, he can call the police. But if someone steals a person, the police won't care!
