I met my whole family through Baidu Tieba.

Chapter 89 I'm at most a self-made millionaire.

Shen Kang was genuinely afraid that he would ruin the website by using the name "Cape of the Sea" that Ma Liang had suggested.

"Uh, actually this is what I was thinking—"

Shen Kang racked his brains and came up with a reason to refuse on the spot.

"I don't know if you've seen Tianya's user report, but over 80% of their users are over 23 years old, with less than 20% under 23. Our target audience happens to be university students, primarily those under 23. So, trying to ride Tianya's coattails won't really help us. Using this name might not only fail to generate buzz but could also create a negative impression. What do you think?"

Ma Liang thought about it and felt that Shen Kang's words made sense.

Then he started muttering to himself again, pondering.

Shen Kang immediately interrupted, "Stop!"

He was genuinely afraid that Ma Liang would think any further. This senior Ma was a naming genius; it was frightening.

You should figure it out yourself.

"Actually, I think your naming idea is pretty good, Senior Ma. Fish come from water, but it doesn't necessarily have to be words like 'sea' or 'ocean.' It could be something else—like 'Northern Sea.' In the Northern Sea there is a fish, its name is Kun."

As Shen Kang thought and fabricated, his thoughts became clearer and clearer.

"The Kun transforms into the Peng, soaring ninety thousand miles high. This is a good omen, indicating that our Beiming community will nurture this 'idle' talent until it transforms into the Peng and soars ninety thousand miles high!"

Ma Liang's eyes lit up. "That's a really good omen!"

After chatting with Ma Liang for a while, and then having a meal, Shen Kang headed towards B13, where the class meeting was being held that day, as it was getting late.

When I got to B17, it was quite a coincidence that I ran into Wang Pan, Feng Moquan, and Jin Chao coming from the other end. Each of them was pushing a bicycle and chatting animatedly about what they were talking about, sometimes chuckling and sometimes sighing, like crazy people.

Shen Kang then walked over directly.

Seeing Shen Kang approach, Wang Pan spoke first: "Old Shen, I was just thinking of giving you a call to remind you again. It seems you still take my words to heart. Not bad, not bad."

-

This pleased Squad Leader Wang.

Shen Kang didn't respond to him, but glanced at the bicycles the three of them were pushing; they were all new. "Didn't you say you were going to buy secondhand ones? Why did you go out and buy new ones?"

A while ago, he overheard Wang Pan and his friends complaining in their dorm that Yang University's campus was too big and walking around every day was too tiring, and they were saying they wanted to buy bicycles to get around. But from what they were saying at the time, they were all inclined to buy secondhand bicycles from upperclassmen, so why did they end up buying new ones?

Speaking of this, Feng Moquan was exasperated: "I did post the ad on that Yangbei forum, but after several days there haven't been any real buyers, and I don't know when I'll receive the car. Wang Pan said the sooner we buy, the sooner we can enjoy it, and we thought that made sense, so we went to look at cars."

Yangbei Forum is the forum that Dai Qiu mentioned, created by students from Yangcheng Business School. Now, all the universities in the Beilu District University Town use that forum.

Shen Kang had, of course, also visited and used that forum; it was quite similar to many university student forums. It even had a dedicated secondhand section where people posted to buy or sell items. Judging from Feng Moquan's reaction, some problems were also apparent—

After the group met, Shen Kang followed them toward B13, lost in thought as he walked.

Feng Moquan couldn't wait to share what they had just been talking about: "Old Shen, when we went to that bicycle shop to buy a bicycle, we ran into a stunningly beautiful woman! I bet you've never seen anyone so beautiful!"

Shen Kang wasn't interested in this topic, so he just gave a perfunctory "oh".

Seeing Shen Kang's dismissive attitude, Feng Moquan turned to Wang Pan: "Old Wang, tell me, isn't that girl exceptionally beautiful?"

Wang Pan pushed the cart, and this time, unusually, he didn't disagree: "She really is beautiful. Even when I was out there, none of the girls around me were this pretty."

Shen Kang thought to himself, "It's really not easy. I can actually get Brother Pan to stop saying things like, 'The girls I used to have were much prettier than this.'"

Hearing Wang Pan's agreement, Feng Moquan chuckled, but immediately sighed, "It's like a beautiful flower stuck in cow dung. Someone in the shop saw her; I heard she's a student at our school, but she has a boyfriend. And her boyfriend is a gigolo, the kind who asks her for money in public!"

As he continued, Feng Moquan became extremely angry.

He felt that the girl should be cherished and pampered, so how could she have found such a boyfriend!

Upon hearing this, Shen Kang's heart stirred, and he formed a certain suspicion. So, he spoke calmly, "Perhaps things aren't as they seem on the surface. That guy might not be some pretty boy at all, but rather a good man with lofty ambitions and both intelligence and courage? And he might not even be that girl's boyfriend?"

Wang Pan looked at Shen Kang with surprise: Wasn't Old Shen loyal to his online girlfriend? Didn't he never express any opinions when discussing these kinds of topics in the dorm before? Why is he talking so much today?

Feng Moquan sighed again: "Even if he wasn't her boyfriend, I feel that kind of girl is not someone we can even dream of."

Wang Pan and Jin Chao nodded silently, deeply agreeing.

After chatting for a while, the four of them arrived at B13. After locking their cars, they went upstairs to 203. There were already some people in the classroom, so the four of them walked towards the window seats on the left rear side of the classroom.

During the journey, Wang Pan noticed something was amiss.

The E-commerce Class 2 has already gathered twice: once for a class meeting on the day they received their military training uniforms, and once for a large lecture on "University Students' Career Planning." But in both instances, Wang Pan and his classmates appeared ordinary and unremarkable. Today, however, is different.

Many girls were looking in their direction, making Wang Pan feel embarrassed, but he was also secretly pleased: it seemed that his becoming the class monitor, coupled with the social events these past few days, had made him famous among the girls and turned him into a celebrity.

Being the class monitor is great, and we should definitely organize social events! Wang Pan thought to himself with delight.

The boys were sitting in a group on the left rear side. Just as the four of them sat down, a boy named Gu Mingqiang in the front row turned around and looked at Shen Kang curiously, asking, "Shen Kang, the girls are saying you're a rich second-generation, that your family has luxury cars and a driver. Is it true?"

Wang Pan's previously smug mood instantly plummeted, and he began to curse Old Shen in his mind.

So those girls were looking at them because of that bastard Lao Shen.

Shen Kang now knew that Wang Pan and his friends were having a social gathering with girls from their class on the street that day, and naturally he knew how the news had gotten out. He didn't know how to answer for a moment, since, as Zhou Man had said, family relationships couldn't be exposed. So he thought for a moment and said, "How many rich kids are there? The luxury cars and drivers all belong to my friends. I'm at most a self-made millionaire."

Given Anjia's current scale and development trend, it wouldn't be a big problem for him to adopt a self-made millionaire.

Gu Mingqiang hesitated for a moment, then asked Wang Pan, "Squad leader, does he always talk like this?"

Goodness, the rich second generation isn't satisfied, they've gone straight to being rich first generation!

"You'll get used to it," Wang Pan said calmly, displaying the composure of a class monitor.

Gu Mingqiang stopped worrying about it and asked Shen Kang, "The girls also said that you're connected to that family and the laundry room at our school? But some girls say you're the owner of that laundry room, and some say you're the manager. Which one is true?"

Feng Mo froze, then immediately questioned, "Old Shen, didn't you say you weren't the owner of that laundry room?"

'

On the day the laundromat opened, he even called to ask, but Lao Shen denied it. But how come it seems that the laundromat really is Lao Shen's?

Shen Kang remained calm: "Why don't you try to recall again? You asked me if I was the owner of that laundromat, and I said no. I really wasn't. I was just the manager. The owner of that laundromat was someone else."

Feng Moquan was a little confused by his entanglement, but he still wouldn't let go, insisting that Shen Kang had cheated, that he had set up a laundry room to trick him into betting, so the bet didn't count, the one lunch he had already treated him to was forgivable, and the remaining nine lunches were all void. Of course, the bet he had insisted on giving Shen Kang was also invalid. When Shen Kang finally agreed after being pestered relentlessly, Feng Moquan felt relieved, feeling that he had finally lost any leverage over Shen Kang.

Wang Pan did not participate, but sat aside looking like he had lost his parents: How come Lao Shen is still the manager of the house and laundry room!

Jin Chao quietly took out his notebook and began to record his new ideas for "Taoist Masters on Campus".

Some students, both boys and girls, kept turning around to look at them, whispering amongst themselves.

However, Wu Jie arrived soon after, and today's class meeting began.

Today's class meeting mainly focused on course selection, add/drop options, and other related matters. Wu Jie informed everyone about the various rules and deadlines set by the school, and also shared some of her experiences and insights on course selection.

After everything was discussed, the class meeting came to an end. The students dispersed and headed outside to go downstairs.

The freshmen were probably still quite shy. Although the news came from the girls, none of them came over to talk to Shen Kang. Only a few boys came over and asked him a few questions as they left.

Wang Pan still felt uncomfortable watching, feeling like he was just a supporting character. But thankfully, Shen Kang was currently in a relationship with an online girlfriend he had never even video chatted with.

Thinking of this, and then of his online girlfriend who weighed 180 pounds and ate five hamburgers in one sitting, Wang Pan felt comfortable. He could almost see that Shen Kang's online girlfriend was just like that.

Thinking of this, Wang Pan finally couldn't help but laugh.
