Reborn in 2000: I just want to love a few people properly.

"Hurry up, hurry up, they're in a real hurry over there."

The young man was named Zhang Junyang. He had been hanging out with Song Leisong for a long time. After years of hard work, this group of people had finally established themselves on Weisan Road.

A few days ago, Xu Bo walked into the store in a very arrogant manner and said he wanted to take over the right to use the store for a week.

Although Song Leisong agreed, he also discussed it with his friends after Xu Bo left.

Zhang Junyang felt that money was free money, so he might as well take it.

If you don't pick it up when you go out, you'll lose it, especially when someone brings it to you on their own.

Unexpectedly, business was booming on the very first day of business.

A glass of lemonade costs only five yuan at this bar, but the store sells it for seven yuan, a difference of two yuan per glass.

This time he needs to bring back about twenty cups.

This round trip yields a profit of sixty or seventy yuan.

Why didn't I think of that before?

Shaking his head, Zhang Junyang gave a wry smile: "They still have to be college students."

The girl in front of me was pretty, with her short hair tied back. She was busy making drinks.

"Almost there, just one more cup."

Luo Qiaoqiao was also puzzled. She hadn't expected Xu Bo's shop to be so successful. She had originally thought it wouldn't matter if she came a little later today.

But as soon as I arrived at the store, the manager yelled at me to make drinks, and I didn't have a moment to spare.

"Miss, would it be convenient to exchange contact information?"

A flirtatious voice rang out. Luo Qiaoqiao was startled at first, then chuckled and ignored it, continuing to slap the lemon with her hands.

"With such a beautiful woman, it's a shame she's wasting her time fighting the lemon monster."

The one who spoke was naturally Xu Bo, but his next words took a different turn.

Luo Qiaoqiao hadn't reacted yet, but Zhang Junyang next to her reacted immediately.

He ignored the earlier attempt to strike up a conversation, but when he said those words, a small sense of justice suddenly welled up inside him.

This girl in front of you is so well-behaved and innocent, how could you do this to her!

Just as he was about to turn around and yell at her, he realized it was Xu Bo.

"Junyang, hurry back to the shop when you're done, the customers are getting impatient."

During the conversation, the last cup of lemon tea had already been sealed by machine.

Zhang Junyang glared at Xu Bo, then left with both hands full of drinks.

"What did you just say?" Even now, Luo Qiaoqiao still didn't understand what Xu Bo meant.

He chuckled, albeit a somewhat lewd one, and said softly, "It's nothing."

"Just came to see if you're busy, and to ask when you're going to your tutoring session."

Luo Qiaoqiao will be taking the college entrance exam next year. She should be focusing on her studies, but I don't know what she was thinking when she decided to work.

"Next week, after I get paid, I'll go for tutoring."

Luo Qiaoqiao said with some pride, "I earned all the money for my tutoring myself."

Luo Qiaoqiao is a very good student, consistently ranking among the top three in her class, so her family is quite confident in her academic performance.

They tacitly approved of her working part-time.

"Okay, I'll be almost done here by then, but I'm about to go to university, so I'll spend the rest of my time with you and explain the problems you don't understand."

With a slight pout, Luo Qiaoqiao saw through Xu Bo's thoughts.

"You're going to teach me? Humph~ There are 500 people in the grade, and you're only in the top 400."

With a wry smile, Xu Bo looked at the pure and charming Luo Qiaoqiao and couldn't help but help her comb a strand of hair that had fallen down.

Sunlight streamed into the bar; a man and a woman were inside and outside the counter, respectively.

The boy was tall, with a bright smile on his face, and was reaching out to help the girl fix her hair.

The girl lowered her pretty face, a shy smile on her face, and let the boy do as he pleased.

"Manager, we're out of lemons."

The aunt next to her said in a low voice.

The manager is a middle-aged woman who is usually conscientious and responsible. If an employee makes even the slightest mistake, they will be subjected to a severe scolding.

But now she seemed reluctant to disturb this beautiful scene, and sighed softly.

"Let's calculate it for now, we'll talk about it later."

After the two cuddled for a while, Xu Bo tossed down a hundred yuan and said generously.

"This is the arcade's prepayment. The cost of water these past few days will be deducted from this amount. Any overpayment will be refunded, and any underpayment will be collected. If it's not enough, I'll come back."

"I'm leaving now. I need to go to the train station to buy a ticket, otherwise I won't be able to get a sleeper berth and I'll have to stay home and work on my 'iron butt'."

Luo Qiaoqiao nodded obediently and stood at the door until Xu Bo's figure could no longer be seen.

"We're out of lemons, go get some."

The manager's words interrupted Luo Qiaoqiao's thoughts. After grunting in response, she went back to the back warehouse and picked up a whole box of lemons. Although it was a bit tiring, she still had a faint smile on her face.

......

Weisan Road is right next to Central Avenue. It takes less than five or six minutes to walk to the bus stop from here, and Xu Bo just happened to get on the No. 2 bus.

After swaying and rattling for more than ten minutes, Xu Bo finally got off at Bingcheng Station.

These days, people still have to buy tickets offline at the train station or through a travel agency, but it costs more money.

"Hello, I'd like to buy a sleeper ticket to Hangzhou for August 29th."

Although school doesn't start until September 1st, the journey will take about two days, so Xu Bo made sure to allow enough time in advance.

"There are no sleeper berths left, only hard seats."

"Damn it!" Xu Bo cursed inwardly. "Sis, please help me out. I'm still a student, and I have a ton of luggage."

Sleeper berths are definitely available, but they're in high demand. Most tickets are locked up in advance, so you just need to ask your relatives or friends on the railway to pull some strings.

Glancing at Xu Bo, the ticket seller, an older woman, finally couldn't bear to see Xu Bo's sincere yet somewhat aggrieved face.

She pretended to slide her finger across the mouse a few times as she spoke.

"There is one sleeper berth, 536."

Xu Bo laughed upon hearing this, "Thank you, sis! You're beautiful inside and out!"

The praise made the ticket seller inside very happy, and her tone became a little gentler.

Xu Bo felt a little embarrassed as he rummaged through his pockets. He only had a little over four hundred yuan on him. If he hadn't flaunted a hundred yuan earlier, it would have been enough.

"Xu Bo, you really need to get rid of this bad habit of showing off."

Xu Bo slapped his head hard and pleaded with his older sister.

"Sister, I don't have that much money with me. Could you please hold onto the ticket? I'll definitely be back within half an hour!"

The eldest sister shook her head helplessly and looked at Xu Bo.

"Young man, we can't reserve a ticket."

"Hurry up, are you buying or not?! We're still waiting to buy tickets!"

"That's right, if you're not going to buy, then get out of here!"

"Hurry up! Stop dawdling, there are other people behind us!"

Those behind him, seeing that Xu Bo was not leaving for a long time, urged him anxiously.

It's summer vacation now, and parents are taking their children out to play. Nobody wants to wait even a second longer.

Helpless, Xu Bo left dejectedly under everyone's urging.

Arriving at the train station entrance, Xu Bo reluctantly lit a cigarette.

Tickets are definitely available, even if you try to buy them tomorrow, they will still be available, but they will most likely be hard seats.

"Sigh... thank goodness we didn't go to Chengdu, otherwise how many men would be obsessed with my iron butt..."

Xu Bo sighed and could only prepare to return to Weisan Road.

But to his surprise, the familiar bicycle reappeared before his eyes.

"My dear daughter, why did you insist on riding your bicycle? Wouldn't it have been better to ride in Dad's car?"

The speaker's tone was full of helplessness.
