If you're not going to marry me, why are you flirting? If you dare run away, I'll sever yo

extraordinary?

It seems that Ye Fan was behind this little scheme.

Fortunately, I was able to get into this school because of some connections. The vice principal of the school was my father's college roommate, so I should only need to mention it to him.

After all, this measure is inherently unfair. If something is to be removed, it should be removed and rectified together. How can there be a situation where something is removed from one platform but retained on another? Isn't this blatant favoritism?

Normally, Qi Nan wouldn't care so much, but now that he's short of money, he absolutely can't back down because of this.

"It's alright, I'll handle it. You just need to keep the morale of our customers stable."

"Okay, boss, I understand."

Qi Nan's words were like a reassurance to Wang Qiang, making him feel much more relaxed.

The call was disconnected.

Immediately afterwards, Qi Nan dialed his father's cell phone number.

"Hey, what do you need? You rebellious son who's cut ties with me."

"I need an advance of 50 million from you; I'm going to escape to outer space."

"Why go to outer space?"

"To fulfill my childhood dream of becoming an astronaut."

"Get lost, kid, give me something serious."

Qi Nan coughed lightly. "Do you remember the secondhand platform project I told you about last time?"

"What happened? Did it fall through?"

"It's going well; we've been profitable for almost two months now."

"I haven't seen any dividends from that."

"We're like brothers, different bodies but the same heart; your money is my money, isn't it?"

"But unfortunately, we have now severed our father-son relationship."

The more dashing he was when he resolutely left that day, the more humble Qi Nan is now.

"No way, you only learn to cherish some things after you lose them. Now I realize how great it is to spend money that you get for free."

"Beep beep...beep beep..."

The other end of the phone hung up on me.

Qi Nan's temples throbbed, and he immediately dialed back.

After connecting.

"Spit it out, or I'm hanging up."

Qi Nan was afraid that he would really hang up, so she hurriedly said, "No, no, no, I really have something to talk to you about."

"explain."

"Are you classmates with our school's Vice Principal Qiu? So I'm thinking of using your connection to ask him for a favor."

"What kind of help?"

Qi Nan didn't waste any words and explained the whole story about the second-hand platform from beginning to end.

After listening, Qi Yunrui thought for a moment and said, "That's acceptable."

"Really?"

Upon hearing this, Qi Nan couldn't help but hum a song called "Father" on the spot.

My old father

The person I love most

The sweetness of life is tenfold

You only tasted three-tenths.

I'll be your child for the rest of my life.

I haven't done enough

I beg you, in the next life

Still be my father

Ah~

The call was disconnected again when he was only halfway through the song.

Looking at the phone screen.

Qi Nan joked, "The old guy knows how to enjoy himself; he listened for so long before hanging up."

...

Meanwhile, at the barbecue stalls along the street, the night sky had completely darkened.

Ye Fan invited Lin Xiao to have some barbecue.

"You two can eat whatever you want, I'll pay the bill today."

Tang Rou clapped her hands and exclaimed, "Wow, why is Brother Ye Fan so generous today?"

"Because something good happened today."

"What good news? Tell me, tell me quickly!"

"Don't rush, we can talk about it after all the dishes are served."

Lin Xiaoxiao smiled obsequiously throughout.

But what I was thinking about was how long it had been since I'd last been to a high-end restaurant.

She used to post all sorts of exquisite content on her WeChat Moments almost every day, but after following Ye Fan for the past few months, she can hardly find any material to post on Moments anymore. Her posting frequency has also decreased from once every one or two days to now possibly not posting even once a week.

When most of the dishes were served, Tang Rou urged, "Brother Ye Fan, just tell us already, stop keeping us in suspense."

"Okay, okay, I'll tell you now."

After sitting up straight, Ye Fan straightened his back and said, "Xiao Xiao, our second-hand platform is about to be reborn. It should be only a matter of time before you break even on your 100,000 yuan."

Upon hearing this, Lin Xiaoxiao immediately perked up.

"What? Brother Ye Fan, are you kidding me?"

The main reason was that she couldn't think of any way Ye Fan's secondhand platform could turn things around given the lack of customers.

"Xiaoxiao, you underestimate me too much. When have I ever lied to you?"

"But that secondhand platform called 'Xianmao' is so powerful, what exactly did you do to be able to steal food from their market?"

Ye Fan smiled confidently, covered his mouth with his hand, and said in a low voice, "Because I got to know a high-ranking person at the school through someone. He's the one who specifically manages these campus platforms. I recently gave him some gifts, and he found a few reasons to take down 'Xianmao' for rectification."

"Really? I didn't know you knew someone high up at the school, Brother Ye Fan."

"Of course, after all, I do have some connections."

Lin Xiaoxiao finally showed a long-lost smile.

Hmph, that Qi Nan, he refused to spend New Year's Eve with me last time. When Brother Ye Fan has money in the future, I'll make you know that my choice, Lin Xiaoxiao's choice, was right.

"Wouldn't that mean we'd have a monopoly?"

Ye Fan said smugly, "Of course, even if they want to make changes, it will take at least ten days to half a month. By then, the lost customers will have already been absorbed by our platform. They will have no leverage to go against us."

"Wow~ Brother Ye Fan, you're amazing!"

Lin Xiaoxiao was extremely attentive, picking up a skewer of pork belly from the table and personally offering it to his mouth, "Ah~ open your mouth, I'll feed you."

"Xiaoxiao, I can take it myself."

"No, no, you're the biggest contributor, let Xiaoxiao feed you instead."

"Thank you."

Ye Fan took a bite, and the aroma of caramelized oil exploded on his tongue.

It's definitely more comfortable to feel supported like this.

Just as he was enjoying his emperor-like treatment, Lin Xiaoxiao continued, "By the way, Brother Ye Fan, if our secondhand project really becomes the dominant force, how much money could we earn in a month?"

"It should be at least tens of thousands."

"That small dividend..."

"Don't worry, you're the major shareholder, I'll give you the highest possible dividend."

Upon hearing this, Lin Xiaoxiao's smile became even brighter. "Brother Ye Fan, you're the best!"

On the other side.

Tang Rou was extremely annoyed, "If I had known, I would have invested some money too. Now I feel like I've lost a hundred million."

Ye Fan comforted him, "It's okay, I'm just getting started, there will be other opportunities in the future."

He was very confident; he had already set his goals ahead of time.
