Reborn: I'll Never Fail My Childhood Sweetheart Again Chapter 297 126: Childhood Sweetheart Descends from the Skie

"We've got plenty of fresh stuff here. Look at these prawns, they're huge, and all alive and kicking. And those oysters are nice and plump..."

The Sea mory shopkeeper recomnded various items.

"Ah Xi, Nanaz, what do you guys want to eat? Hurry up and order; we're starving!"

Su Zelin urged impatiently.

"Hmm, let's get so salt and pepper prawns, and roasted oysters too!"

Luo Xi didn't stand on ceremony with Su Zelin; she knew the guy was quite generous.

"I want grilled beef, chicken wings, and tofu skin..."

Nanaz also ordered so skewers.

"Alright, we'll get those, and also a pot of seafood porridge. Make sure to add so extra ingredients; put in all the good stuff. Money's not an issue!"

Su Zelin was equally extravagant.

"Alright, just take a seat while you wait; it won't take long!"

Sea mory went into the kitchen to get busy, and the three of them found a spot to sit, sipping tea and chatting for about fifteen minutes before the food started coming out.

First ca the barbecue and salt and pepper prawns.

They were all starving and tucked in with great relish, thoroughly enjoying the al.

Soon after, a steaming pot of seafood porridge was served.

Su Zelin downed two bowls in a row, feeling warm all over.

But when he wanted a third bowl, he kept stirring his spoon in the pot, unable to find the seafood he was looking for.

"Where are the abalones, my beloved abalones? Why are they gone?"

Even though he had asked Sea mory to add more ingredients, after all, it was an affordable eatery, so abalone wasn't exactly in abundance.

Feeling unsatisfied, Su Zelin glanced over at Luo Xi's bowl: "Ah Xi, how about we make a deal..."

"Don't even think about my abalones!"

The class beauty instantly sensed his sneaky intentions and quickly shielded her bowl.

"Tsk, so stingy!"

The mischievous one smirked, shrugging.

"Here, you can have mine!"

On the other side, Nanaz generously put two pieces of abalone into Su Zelin's bowl.

"Ah Xi, see how nice Nanaz is to ? You're just too stingy. And I even treated you to prawns and oysters!"

Su Zelin grumbled a couple of complaints, then eagerly gulped down the two pieces of abalone, licking his lips with satisfaction.

Stolen food always tastes better.

Others' abalone is truly more delicious!

Luo Xi watched the whole scene, thinking to herself that Nanaz was genuinely nice to this guy, even giving him her abalones.

It seems like her bestie might have a crush on the mischievous class monitor.

Thinking back to the last ti on the train to Yu Province with him, although nothing inappropriate happened, the class beauty felt inexplicably guilty, as if she had sohow wronged Nanaz.

...

A week later.

On a weekend evening, after the digital store closed, Su Zelin returned to the dormitory.

The wave of computer assembly at the digital store had subsided, and business had returned to normal.

Last night, Kang Baohong did an assessnt, and the profits from this assembly peak indeed surpassed the small peak during New Year by nearly two hundred thousand.

However, in the campus computer store, the main assembly business relies on the beginning of the sester and the New Year mini-break. Other tis are off-season, and the entirety of eight off-season months might not match the profits of a single month during peak periods.

This peculiar situation is quite different from the stores in the city center's computer malls outside campus.

But it doesn't matter, as long as the off-season covers expenses, even a few peak periods can sustain the business. Besides, the off-season doesn't generate losses, and there's still so inco. Conservatively speaking, a few tens of thousands a month isn't a problem.

Moreover, the digital store has other untapped profit avenues, like the after-sales agency for accessories previously discussed with Kang Baohong.

Once things calm down, Kang Baohong will find ti to negotiate with accessory suppliers. It shouldn't be a problem, and it would be an additional line of business.

For the first digital store, Su Zelin needs to fully explore its potential. Although it might be a bit complicated at first, once they figure out the operation, opening a branch will be easy as they replicate the money-making model and processes.

He opened his computer and logged into QQ.

Checking ssages daily had beco a habit for Su Zelin.

The store's display units, though abundant, weren't for the staff to use casually. As the store manager, he naturally had to set an example.

"Ding ding ding!"

Just as he finished reading the ssages, a new one popped up. It was from Qin Shiqing.

Sunny Day: "Zelin, are you free tomorrow?"

Handso Since One: "What's up?"

Sunny Day: "Tomorrow's the weekend, and I want to visit your school."

Handso Since One: "What's there to see at my school? Didn't you visit during the Mid-Autumn Festival?"

Sunny Day: "Hehe, during the Mid-Autumn Festival, I just walked around the artificial lake. There are many places I haven't seen yet."

Handso Since One: "Don't bother coming. The Finance Institute is like that, no scenic spots. Just a walk around the artificial lake is enough. Besides, I have to go to the digital store tomorrow. It's busy at the start of the sester, so I can't make ti to entertain you!"

In fact, the digital store wasn't busy now; it was just an excuse.

Sunny Day: "Alright, got it."

After chatting for a while, they ended the conversation, and Su Zelin found it a bit curious.

Why would Qin Shiqing suddenly want to visit the Finance Institute again?

How boring!

...

The next morning, after breakfast, Su Zelin still went to the digital store.

After the peak, Luo Xi and Nanaz didn't need to be reinforcents anymore.

Those freeloaders had bought their computers, so they didn't co to the experience center anymore. Instantly, a bunch of familiar faces were gone, making the store seem quiet, and Su Zelin couldn't help but miss them a little.

But he knew it was alright; it was just temporary.
