Back to the prime of life

Chapter 67: Not Young Anymore (Happy New Year)

On Saturday night, people in dormitory 308 really started discussing Qin Jun's participation in the singing variety show.

They have already searched online, and now a certain southern TV station has begun warming up, announcing that this year's singing talent show will be launched soon. The model is divided into singing areas. There are a total of six major singing areas in the country, in addition to the provincial capital Jinling, there are also Jinan, Chengdu, Guangzhou, etc.

However, the official start time and registration start time have not been determined.

"Old Lu, will you go when the time comes?" Qin Jun said to him from below.

Lying on the bed, Lu Changge pulled his thoughts away from Xu Weiguo's affairs and muttered, "Are we going to Jinling?"

"Yes, we will take the train then. I have never taken a train before." Qin Jun said.

Lu Changge realized that there was no high-speed rail yet. At the same time, he thought of Xu Qiuxue. If he wanted to go, he could go meet her.

"No problem, I'll go with you." Lu Changge reminded again, "But you have to calculate the time so it doesn't conflict with our classes."

"What's there to be afraid of? I can just skip classes when the time comes. I haven't attended many classes anyway." Cheng Yongyi looked like a rich second-generation rich kid.

Hui Chuankun said, "But escaping occasionally would be different from escaping together, right?"

Cheng Yongyi said, "If the time is not right, you don't have to go. We can go instead."

These words made Hui Chuankun speechless.

Old Cheng is like this sometimes, he speaks without thinking.

"We don't know the exact time now. Let's wait until it's decided. If it's on the weekend, then there won't be any problem." Lu Changge came to the rescue.

"I hope it's not the weekend." Qin Jun sighed.

He actually didn't want everyone to go, so he held the auditions. It would be embarrassing if he wasn't selected.

But he also knew that it would be difficult for Li Ming and Lu Changge not to support him in such a matter. If the two of them went, the rest of the people would basically go one after another.

"You have some confidence." Li Ming patted his shoulder. "After all, you have been professionally trained by your mother since you were a child. Even if your talent is not as good as mine, at least you have put in so many years of hard work."

"The talent you boast about is indeed strong." Qin Jun mocked directly.

Li Ming didn't care. He first exchanged a few words with Qin Jun, but he didn't feel it was enough, so he went to provoke Tang Huaicheng who was half lying on the bed.

"Old Tang, have you found any results for that senior student of yours? When we all go to Jinling, can you take her with you?"

Tang Huaicheng is honest outside, but he is very sultry when he returns to the dormitory. He said, "Speaking of this, I have to ask Brother Qin for help. You can either ask your sister-in-law to do something and bring An Min over as well."

"No, you figure it out yourself."

"How can you be like this? You rely on others every day to chase girls." Li Ming laughed and said, "Our great comrade Lu Changge once said that if a woman doesn't like you, everything is in vain."

"Did I say that?"

"Then tell me now."

Lu Changge was truly impressed by this guy. He bent his right hand and placed it under his head, saying slowly and calmly, "I don't know if it's because I've been so upset lately. As for me, I suddenly feel that a simple life is best. Two thatched huts, three acres of thin land, two kittens, and three or five beautiful wives..."

"Puff..." Cheng Yongyi, who was drinking water, spit out a mouthful of water. "Fuck, I've always been a playboy, I don't even dare to talk about three or five wives!"

"Haha."

In the end, even Hui Chuankun joined in the conversation.

The next day, Sunday, Lu Changge helped Zuo Shuya move and she packed all her things.

She cares about how things are going.

Lu Changge knew what she was referring to, "Don't worry, he has collected all the things."

"How much did you give him?"

"Why do you ask that?"

Zuo Shuya was a little dazed. "To be honest, I always felt that this kind of thing... would be very embarrassing to do."

"Why are you embarrassed? It's not you who did it. Besides, they are more used to it than us." Lu Changge said with a smile.

"No, this kind of... is quite direct, don't you think?"

"Don't worry about it. I'll take care of it. But you, has Zhou Chunjin's ex-wife come looking for you again?"

Zuo Shuya sighed, "It's not his problem right now. I just feel sorry for his ex-wife and child. And Rongrong has advised me twice."

Lu Changge thought of Chen Rong.

"How did you and Chen Rong meet? Are you close?"

"It's okay, we are college classmates."

Ok.

He felt that Chen Rong was holding back, perhaps out of intuition. But this was a matter between Zuo Shuya and her friend, and Lu Changge couldn't say much, otherwise it would seem like he was trying to sow discord.

In fact, he had a rough and simplistic judgment: he thought Zhou Chunjin's side must have hired someone to do Chen Rong's work. Of course, this was not free.

However, this was just his own judgment. He and Zuo Shuya had not been friends for decades, so he had to be clear about what he could say and what he could not say.

"It's up to you."

Zuo Shuya said, "I want to at least wait until your problem is resolved, so that he won't have anything to threaten us with."

"Well, thanks."

"Hi." Zuo Shuya waved her hand, meaning don't be too polite, and then said: "By the way, I want to talk to you about business today."

Because of Zhou Chunjin's incident these days, their lives have fallen into some kind of chaos.

But life always comes back to the real business of making money.

The good news is that after the Spring Festival and into March, the sales of Taobao stores finally broke through the freezing point and began to pick up. Including the past two days, the orders have remained above 3 for seven consecutive days.

There are still ten days until March 3rd, but the current sales volume has reached the number of the previous calendar month, 23 orders.

It’s the only consolation after bad luck.

There were also people sending me messages on that work QQ.

One of them, named 'Xiao Lou', caught Zuo Shuya's attention.

The other party said that he was the moderator of a job search forum and offered to put an advertisement at the top of her post, but the prerequisite was payment.

Zuo Shuya's heart moved. She was already worried about how to expand sales, so this was like a pillow thrown away when she was about to fall asleep.

But she always had to discuss such matters with Lu Changge first.

She led the people to the work room where the computer was placed. Since the house she rented this time was three bedrooms and one living room, and the house was big, she made a room similar to an office on the right side of the living room.

There is a table and a movable blackboard inside, and the computer is also on the table.

From now on, this will be where they record videos and discuss class content.

"This guy said he was a moderator. I think we need some advertising, so we could try collaborating with him. But after all, we're separated by a computer, and I'm worried he's a scammer, or that the advertising won't be effective."

"Who? How did you know him?" Lu Changge asked.

"Look, here she is. Actually, she is one of our clients." Zuo Shuya brought up the chat interface and showed it to him.

Looking through the past records, Lu Changge found that they talked a lot about video courses or workplace topics.

"You're really patient."

"Isn't it just to be a good customer service representative?" Zuo Shuya seemed helpless.

Lu Changge thought for a moment, "It's not impossible to believe this. Try paying him a little money at the beginning. Even if you lose something, it won't be much. And I don't think he'll cheat you."

"why?"

"Because men can't bear to cheat on beautiful women, they will only be cheated by beautiful women."

Zuo Shuya knew that she had a good figure and was good-looking.

But for some reason, when Lu Changge said it this time, she felt a vague sense of shyness in her heart, and her legs unconsciously moved closer together.

She has a slightly mature temperament and the charm of a young woman. Her body is thin, giving people a soft feeling like a willow swaying in the wind.

Lu Changge didn't hesitate and took a few more glances.

Scientific research has proven that every glance at a beautiful woman can extend your life by two minutes. So he's not being lustful or vulgar, he's just cherishing his life.

"I'm a divorced woman, how could I be concerned about the factors you mentioned?" Zuo Shuya was calm as an adult, but she was a little overwhelmed by his gaze. She felt numb all over, as if a long-dry land was finally greeted by a downpour.

Lu Changge said, "Don't you know that some men prefer girls who are a little older? They don't like the liveliness and radiance of younger sisters, but prefer the gentleness of older sisters."

"That's nonsense. How old are you? Do you know all that?"

“It’s not small anymore.”

Zuo Shuya's thoughts wandered. She laughed to herself, flicked her hair, and asked, "Are you like that too?"

"I can't say for sure, I like it to be refreshed every day."

"You are not serious."

Lu Changge smiled nonchalantly, "That's all. I'll leave this matter to you. Be careful to protect yourself and don't reveal your real name or other personal information. You can handle the rest as you wish."

"Okay. I'll tell you after I've negotiated a price with him."

"to make."

He had a quick lunch here at noon, and since he had classes in the afternoon, he didn't stay here for too long.
