Chapter 224: Chapter 193: QQ Tycoon’s Identity at Risk of Exposure

Yue Lingjing was supposed to be the most famous freshman in this class at Technology University.

She possessed beauty that could rival Lin Lu and Shen Qingning, recognized as a knockout among the freshman class.

It’s said that the famously attractive female goddesses at Technology University had varying styles.

Yue Lingjing embodied an elegant beauty, or rather, she had a somewhat classical appearance.

Like some actresses in the entertainment industry are titled as ancient costume beauties and some male actors as ancient costume gods—because some people simply stood out more in traditional attire.

Clearly, Yue Lingjing was that type of person.

When Cheng Zhu first saw her, he thought that she would look especially captivating in traditional Hanfu or a cheongsam.

Now it was 2014, and the popularity of Hanfu culture was still a bit in the future.

By the time Hanfu culture swept through, he estimated that with Yue Lingjing’s looks, just posting a random Hanfu video could blow up and make her an internet sensation.

Previously, he didn’t have a deep impression of Yue Lingjing because she had only spent one year at Technology University before she went abroad.

After being reborn, he had only met her once, when Luo Xi brought her to “Youu Come to Play” to check-in.

Other than that, their lives seemed to have lacked any other intersections.

Well, only seemed, that is.

These past few days for Yue Lingjing were relaxed and joyful.

The reason was simple: she got to see her senior sister’s new paintings every day.

The only downside was, “Lately, her senior’s works have been leaning towards a more Western style, which I’m less fond of compared to her earlier works.”

She had even specifically asked her former art studio senior why her style had suddenly changed.

Her senior replied, “Before, Daddy mainly targeted the domestic market, but now he’s invincible on Taobao and without rivals, aiming to expand overseas.”

Yue Lingjing could tell that every time her Shanghai-based senior mentioned Daddy, she would get excited.

That was understandable, considering she had him saved in her phone as soulmate and saw him as a confidant in the world of art.

Yue Lingjing actually thought he was quite impressive, still a university student yet already dominating the QQ lingerie market.

After conquering Taobao without rivals domestically, he was moving on to international markets!

That must be considered promising youth.

Of course, Yue Lingjing had a favorable impression of him simply because, without him, she wouldn’t have been able to see so many artworks over these months.

“Senior regards him as a source of inspiration, saying whenever he sends pictures of products, her inspiration just flows out uncontrollably.”

In fact, she could also tell that her senior had made rapid progress over the past few months.

And unlike her, her senior came from a modest background, had many quirky preferences, and was best at drawing risqué pictures—it wasn’t easy to earn legal money!

Economic foundation determines superstructure.

Now that her senior’s material needs were met, she spent her free time creating works she couldn’t share publicly, only sending them to Yue Lingjing for appreciation.

All in all, she actually benefited from her senior’s Daddy.

Without him, she wouldn’t have had the recent joy and indulgence.

—All praise to Daddy!

Back to the subject, the senior shared that she and her sponsor agreed to only be lifelong online friends, never to meet offline because the content discussed online could prompt police action if exposed, and she didn’t want to risk social suicide.

All she knew was the sponsor was a university student from Hang City.

Yue Lingjing wondered, “I wonder which school.”

“Senior said so too, I wonder which university in Hang City is so amazing, filled with hidden talented individuals, harboring a God of risqué content!”

At that moment, Yue Lingjing and her roommate Luo Xi were walking out of the campus gate.

They had arranged to meet Cheng Zhu at a café outside the university.

This had prompted Luo Xi to start applying makeup and curling her hair an hour and a half earlier.

She changed her outfit three times.

Yue Lingjing, who only loved the risqué content in comics and had little interest in real-life men, was somewhat puzzled by Luo Xi’s state of mind.

“Didn’t Xixi say she’s no longer secretly in love with him and has no thoughts about him anymore, and now just sees him as an idol?”

“Or is it that when you meet an idol, you also want to show your best self?”

While walking out of the campus, occasional gusts of autumn wind blew by.

Luo Xi had asked Yue Lingjing several times already, “Jingjing, is my fringe messed up?”

“No, no, it looks natural.” Yue Lingjing patiently replied.

In the eyes of others, she was always calm, gentle, sweet, and patient.

This was why Luo Xi didn’t mind showing her emotions in front of her.

I’m just nervous to meet Cheng Zhu, just wanting to look my best.

It’s not like I really think something could happen between us, it just naturally turns into this.

If the other two roommates were here, they probably would have teased her.

When the two ladies arrived at the café, they headed straight to a corner on the second floor.

Cheng Zhu had arrived earlier and already asked Luo Xi what they would like to drink, and then offered to buy them coffee.

“Long time no see.” Cheng Zhu smiled and greeted them.

“Yes, long time no see.” Luo Xi sat down and asked first, “Cheng Zhu, why didn’t you go to the high school reunion during National Day?”

“Was too busy those days,” Cheng Zhu fibbed.

Moreover, that afternoon, Li Xinyue had specifically made a trip to “Youu Come to Play,” only to be ridiculed by Yao Yina and Zhang Qiqi.

“Oh right, makes sense, you are a busy person after all. But although you weren’t there, your name was still frequently mentioned at the dining table,” Luo Xi mentioned.

“I understand, got used to it,” Cheng Zhu said with a smile.

Luo Xi, hearing this, also smiled.

In her heart, Cheng Zhu had already been somewhat like this in high school, only now it was even more pronounced.

After a few pleasantries, the conversation turned serious.

Yue Lingjing clarified her intentions, which slightly surprised Cheng Zhu.

“So, you actually didn’t come to buy the shop but to tell me that your venture capitalist uncle is very optimistic about my place?”

Venture capitalists are eyeing my shop?

“Yeah, right.” Yue Lingjing nodded.

Cheng Zhu never expected that she wasn’t here to buy his shop but to persuade him not to sell it!

They want to invest in me!

Venture capitalists are naturally sharp, and seeing the buzz that “Youu Come to Play” had created, it’s not really surprising to catch their attention.

Especially since Yue Lingjing had also posted about it on social media.

“My uncle specifically talked to me after he recently came to Hang City for a business trip, he took time to visit and even searched for ‘Youu Come to Play’ online.”

“He told me that among the current projects he’s handling, this internet-celebrity claw machine shop is just a general C-level project, but he’s very positive about you and after analyzing your marketing strategies, he believes you can upgrade it to a B-level project,” Yue Lingjing detailed, emphasizing her uncle’s high regard for him.

“But I don’t have that plan,” Cheng Zhu replied directly, “I just want to sell the shop.”

Make a quick buck and be done.

Accepting venture capital meant taking on responsibility, and he would definitely need to commit fully.

It’s simple because in the investment world, there are just so many big shots.

These people hold too many resources.

With some, just a simple gesture could shake the whole business community.

If he was really going to interact with investors, Cheng Zhu would inevitably need to demonstrate his capabilities.

Now being 2014, getting favored by big shots then collaborating could be beneficial.

Otherwise, if you’re fighting alone and achieve a certain level of success, you might want to think about what awaits you at that height.

But to him, a claw machine project truly wasn’t worth dedicating so much time and effort.

Even if it turned out to be highly successful, due to inherent project limitations, the ultimate achievement would be mediocre!

How to put it, the ceiling is just too low!

Even if he pushed it to the limits, it wouldn’t be very exciting.

The money earned in a year probably wouldn’t match what he’d make from “Persistent Visit.”

Not to mention comparing it with high-end internet-celebrity bubble tea brands.

At that moment, Yue Lingjing hadn’t expected Cheng Zhu to refuse so quickly and decisively.

He didn’t delve into asking what exactly her uncle’s position was at the venture capital firm.

Ultimately, he just smiled and said, “However, I will have a new project soon, your uncle might want to check that out.”

…

…

Finally, Cheng Zhu and the two ladies chatted a few more minutes at the café before bidding each other farewell.

Before leaving, Yue Lingjing added his WeChat.

Watching Yue Lingjing’s retreating figure, Cheng Zhu thought, “She’s truly a chosen Hanfu goddess.”

“She’d probably look great in a cheongsam too,” Cheng Zhu thought.

To him, Yue Lingjing was indeed a lady with a unique aura.

Even in his previous life, he had only encountered women of her type with lesser charm and attractiveness.

If it’s said that Yue Lingjing was the most beautiful in this batch of freshmen, Cheng Zhu personally agreed.

The type of beauty she possessed was, after all, of a higher grade and very enduring.

Like many others, upon adding a new friend, Cheng Zhu would first check out her social media which nowadays acted almost like a personal business card.

After checking a few posts, he felt there wasn’t much engaging content and didn’t continue scrolling.

At this moment, Cheng Zhu only thought that Luo Xi was their only mutual friend.

On the other hand, after returning to her dorm, Yue Lingjing went to the balcony to call her uncle, informing him about the situation.

His response was mildly regretful.

Regarding Cheng Zhu’s upcoming new venture, he also expressed that he would like to know once the shop opened.

Yue Lingjing could tell that “Youu Come to Play” wasn’t all that significant to her uncle.

Perhaps he was more interested in Cheng Zhu as an individual.

For some reason, Yue Lingjing recalled a motto hanging in her uncle’s study—Success is In Our Hands.

Putting down her phone, just as Yue Lingjing was about to head back inside from the balcony, her phone rang continuously.

Receiving so many new messages in an instant, from her experience, it was most definitely… her senior sending her more risqué pictures!

She adeptly opened her phone and quickly replied with three emojis to push the risqué pictures up the chat to prevent others from accidentally seeing them on her screen.

These images weren’t suitable for viewing now as she was about to head out to see a movie with her roommates.

Thus, she replied, “Senior, I’ll look at these later and discuss with you then.”

“Alright! No rush!”

“By the way, you menti
