Sunday afternoon at 1:30, Starlight Shopping Center.

The atrium, which used to be filled with promotional booths, has long been cleared out, leaving only a stage, which is now a sea of ​​people.

Even more outrageous, the three-story circular corridor connected to the atrium was also packed with people at this moment.

Lin Ran stood on the control panel on the fourth floor, looking down.

He roughly estimated that the number of people present had already exceeded three thousand, and more people were still coming in.

He checked with Tang Chen, and in the end, more than 1,800 people registered to attend the offline conference. The extra people...

Some were dragged along by their roommates for courage, while others were simply there to witness the spectacle of thousands of people meeting in real life.

He hadn't expected so many people to come, but since they were already there, he couldn't just turn them away, could he?

Besides...

He glanced at Zheng Qiao, whose face was glowing red, and he got really excited.

If Zheng Qiao were to chase away someone's guest at this point, he might very well push him off the fourth floor.

Lin Ran doesn't really like these big occasions, and since he also wants to train his assistant, he chose Xia Chan as the host this time.

He glanced at the familiar cicada holding the manuscript, his fingertips turning slightly white as he gripped the card.

Are you nervous?

The cicadas nod their heads like chicks pecking at rice.

"I'm nervous, boss. My legs are a little weak. I feel like these people have bad intentions, like they're waiting to see me make a fool of myself."

"...Just imagine you're holding a concert right now, and treat all these people below as your fans."

Xia Chan tried it out and her eyes lit up.

"Boss, you know what, it actually works! Look at that guy, he looks like a wide rice noodle, um... Boss, I'm a little hungry."

"???"

"You're hopeless."

To maintain the mystery online while ensuring that the secret code could be used offline, Lin Ran's team designed a simple way to verify identities.

Each participant received a wristband at the registration desk, which was printed with their assigned animal and numerical ID from the system. The matched participants would also leave each other with a daily feature notification.

Zhao Feiyu received a "Frog-68" bracelet. Looking at the other party's profile on his phone, which read "Wearing white socks," he felt somewhat confused.

Looking around, there was a vast sea of ​​people, a dense mass of heads.

White socks? What the hell is this? It's like looking for a needle in a haystack.

He was already tall, so at this moment he could only sneakily crouch down to look at other people's socks.

Students passing by looked at him with wariness and subconsciously kept their distance from this pervert who stared at people's feet.

He even almost lifted the skirt of a girl wearing a long dress, nearly being mistaken for a pervert, which scared him so much that he quickly apologized.

Zhou Jiayi received a bracelet called "Frog-67" and the clue she received was "overalls".

This feature is easy to spot; a quick glance is enough to pinpoint the tall boy with his butt sticking out in the crowd.

Holding her phone, she felt a little embarrassed to approach and acknowledge the person in front of so many people, as there were too many people around.

Just then, a girl carrying two cups of milk tea walked past Zhao Feiyu and accidentally dropped the milk tea on the ground.

Zhao Feiyu was startled and instinctively squatted down, hurriedly picking up the cup and scattered items for the other person, and then took out a tissue and handed it to him.

Zhou Jiayi noticed the chaos ahead and quickly went forward, just in time to see Zhao Feiyu wiping the girl's hands with a tissue.

Zhao Feiyu turned his head and saw a short, pretty girl staring at him.

I glanced at her ankles instinctively and noticed they were white socks, then quickly turned my head away.

Damn it, eight out of ten girls wear white socks.

However, he noticed that the girl hadn't left; she was just standing there quietly, looking at him with a hint of something she wanted to say but couldn't.

Zhao Feiyu was stunned. He seemed to sense something and looked hesitantly at the girl's wrist, where a toad was drawn.

Blood rushed to his head, his ears rang, his throat went dry, and his voice trembled slightly:

"You...you are...the Toad Girl?"

Those around Zhao Feiyu smiled knowingly upon hearing his words and quietly moved aside, making room for him.

Zhou Jiayi nodded gently, her cheeks slightly flushed.

"Confirmed!" Zhao Feiyu roared inwardly, his adrenaline surging.

Now! He took a deep breath and silently recited his prepared golden opening remarks:

You're more beautiful than I imagined, more beautiful than I imagined...

This was the conclusion he, Ding Facai, and Liu Zhihua reached after studying it for a whole night. The three Casanovas analyzed it for a long time and felt that no matter what the Toad Girl said, Zhao Feiyu would definitely not go wrong using this sentence as an opening line.

Lin Laosi also mocked the three of them for being straight men.

What does Lin Laosi know?!

Zhao Feiyu must prove himself today.

He mustered his courage, focused his energy, and waited for the toad girl to speak.

"Have you always been this nosy?"

Zhao Feiyu: "You're... huh?"

Zhou Jiayi said this partly because she felt a little uncomfortable seeing him wiping other girls' hands.

On the other hand, she was reminded of the green-haired man who, under the guise of being helpful, had actually been harassing her in various ways, which was entirely out of a self-protective instinct.

However, seeing Zhao Feiyu's bewildered and silly expression, she couldn't help but smile.

……

As the cicadas grew more relaxed, the event reached its climax with the host occasionally throwing in a witty remark.

Some people are happy that someone is worried.

Those who are happy are naturally like Zhao Feiyu, who successfully joined forces.

As for the worries... well, they're naturally a major online dating disaster.

"Didn't you say you look like Eddie Peng?"

"How dare you say that to me? You even said you look like Yang Mi!"

……

"So, after a week of dating, all that's left is appearances? What about all the sweet talk you gave me?"

"What do you mean? It's just an idiom, okay? I'm begging you to just ignore me like I'm nothing."

……

As for the others, they held up tickets worth 29 yuan and wandered around the various shops in the Starlight Mall that were participating in the event.

This ticket can be used on the spot as an equivalent movie ticket, a designated beverage set, or a retail discount voucher.

The online popularity is visibly translated into real offline consumption.

Standing by the control panel on the fourth floor, Zheng Qiao looked at the crowds in the atrium and the significantly increased flow of people in the shops on each floor, becoming more and more satisfied.

The mall usually sees around 4,000 visitors a day, but Lin Ran doubled their visitor count today, and all of them were high-quality customers.

He felt that betting on Lin Ran and his team was the best decision he had made this year.

He patted Lin Ran on the shoulder, his voice brimming with barely suppressed excitement.

"President Lin, I won't say much in thanks. As for when and how the next event will be held, I, Zheng Qiao, guarantee my full cooperation!"

……

Evening, at the 108 Startup Base.

The meeting concluded successfully, and the project team members seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.

A group of people were relaxed and casual, some playing cards, some chatting, making room 108 very lively.

Only one person is still carrying the burden.

Tang Chen.

Tonight, a post suddenly went viral on the campus forum.
