You didn’t accept my confession, why are you crying because I changed my mind?

Chapter 24: I Like to Flirt With Girls, But I’m a Good Boy

He finally knew what he wanted to do.

That’s right, he was going to build a food delivery platform!

Jiang Zhou’s eyes burned with passion.

Others might not know how promising this industry was, but he did.

In 2018, Dama spent a total of 63.3 billion to acquire “Hungry Yet”.

Its founder, Zhang Rihao, skyrocketed to the pinnacle of success.

63.3 billion!

That number would still be shocking even twenty years from now!

Right now, Jiang Zhou had a startup fund of one million yuan.

It was more than enough to take over the delivery market in Shangjing University.

Next would be Qingbei University, then North China University of Technology.

Through the university towns, he would expand food delivery across all of Shangjing.

After that? Wait for investment, and go big from the jump.

“I’m a genius… a real opportunistic genius!” Jiang Zhou muttered.

He started working through the detailed plans as he headed toward the classroom building.

3:00 p.m.

Time for the freshman orientation.

The male students had shown up at least half an hour early just to scope out any pretty girls.

Back in high school, dating was strictly forbidden.

Not just by the school, but also by their parents.

So now, these first-year college students were basically hormone-filled time bombs.

It was the perfect time for love at first sight.

If you were outgoing, knew how to flirt a little, and weren’t completely broke, dating in college was way easier than in high school.

“That girl in the black T-shirt looks good, quite well-developed too.”

“Yeah, but look at the acne on her face, man.”

“Okay, okay, then how about the one by the window? Fair skin, nice face.”

“Pfft, she looks like she weighs 150 pounds and she’s barely 5’2.”

At the same time, the girls were also sizing up the boys and most of them looked pretty disappointed.

This year’s batch of finance majors was seriously lacking in quality.

Glasses, flat noses, messy hair…

But worst of all, they all had that slightly creepy vibe.

Weren’t these guys supposed to be top students? Where was the scholarly charm?

Then, Jiang Zhou walked in.

He was 180 cm tall (about 5’11”).

He wore a stylish Korean-style shirt — white with blue accents — its sleeves neatly rolled up to the elbows.

The top button was casually undone. Below that, he had on a pair of tailored black dress pants.

Simple, but full of youthful energy.

Jiang Zhou wasn’t the kind of guy who made people swoon at first glance, but compared to the other guys in the room… he was a solid 10.

He paused at the door and looked around the classroom.

But gradually, a slight frown appeared on his face.

His wife from his past life… wasn’t here?

Maybe she hadn’t arrived yet?

Meanwhile, the girls’ eyes lit up as soon as they saw him.

“Oh my god, finally someone cute! Don’t any of you dare steal him from me!”

“Hey handsome, where are you from? You look kinda familiar.”

Jiang Zhou smiled and waved, “Hey, beauties. My name is Jiang Zhou, from Linjiang. Single. I love flirting and lying, but deep down, I’m a good guy.”

“Linjiang? I’ve been there before!” a girl chirped.

“Nice, you should visit again sometime. I’ll give you the grand tour.”

A long-haired girl with bangs giggled. “Aren’t you getting ahead of yourself? You haven’t even asked my name yet.”

Jiang Zhou shrugged. “Names are just labels. I think ‘Beauty’ suits you better.”

“Alright, fine! You’re smooth. I’m Huang Qi, add me on QQ later.”

The guys from Room 208, watching all this unfold, looked about as sour as a bag of lemons.

Gao Wenkai muttered, “What a simp. Look at him, never seen a girl before or what?”

Xu Haodong nodded. “And the girls have no taste. What are they thinking?”

“Girls these days only care about looks,” someone added. “Who asked Jiang Zhou to be better looking than us?”

Zhang Guangfa swapped his phone battery and grumbled, “This is why online dating’s better. No one judges your face, only your soul.”

“Yeah, online dating… where you can’t even kiss them.”

“Shut up.”

As they were talking, two men walked into the classroom.

They wore green-gray work uniforms and were carrying a big box.

On the box, a massive logo: Ashui’s Big Cup Tea.

Once inside, they scanned the room.

“Excuse me, is there a Jiang Zhou here?”

Jiang Zhou turned around. “That’s me. Just leave it there. Thanks.”

“Thanks for your order. Take care!” The two men dropped the box and left.

Now, all the students were staring.

“Jiang Zhou, what’s this?”

“This is our first time meeting, right?” Jiang Zhou said casually. “So I wanted to buy some milk tea for all the lovely ladies. Don’t worry, guys get one too.”

Huang Qi’s eyes widened. “Whoa, seriously? Milk tea for everyone? You really are a bad boy!”

The guys sneered.

Buying milk tea for the whole class?

He was clearly trying to show off.

Even the cheapest cup at Ashui’s cost 20 yuan.

Over forty cups. This dude just spent around 1,000 yuan.

That’s like an entire month’s living expenses for some students!

He might as well walk around shouting, “I have money!”

He was definitely one of those attention-seeking types.

But in reality, Jiang Zhou hadn’t done it just to show off.

An hour earlier, while searching for an office space near campus, he came across Ashui’s milk tea shop.

It was the closest store to the school gates.

If he wanted to partner with local businesses and reach students conveniently, this was the ideal location.

So, Jiang Zhou planned to take over that shop.

And this big milk tea order? It was just a way to make a good impression on the owner.

Plus, he’d need employees for his business eventually.

Winning over his classmates early on? Always a smart move.

“Classmates,” Jiang Zhou said as he stepped onto the podium and cleared his throat, “I didn’t buy this milk tea for any special reason.

“I just hope that, when you all look back on your university days, you’ll remember one thing.”

Huang Qi looked at him curiously. “Remember what?”

Ah, what a great setup.

Jiang Zhou smiled. “I hope you remember that the first milk tea you ever had in university… was from a guy named Jiang Zhou.”

At this point in time, there was no trendy phrase like “first milk tea of autumn.”

So Jiang Zhou came up with his own version, “first milk tea of college.”

It was romantic, low-key, and actually meaningful.

Sure enough, the girls’ eyes lit up at his words.

First milk tea of college…

It really did feel special.

And even the guys were a little shaken.

Damn… so that’s how you woo girls?
