129: Chapter 129 Sudden Attack

Since the furniture mostly came with the rental, Chu Xinyi didn't really add or remove anything.

The biggest item was the desktop computer that Zhao Xiaoshuai had given her.

"Xinyi, if you ask me, this computer is really old. Let's just toss it, and I'll build you a new one."

"No way! I like this one. I just use it to surf the internet and don't do anything else, so this is enough."

Chu Xinyi had completely modified this computer. Except for the case, which still looked like the original, none of the internal parts were the same as before.

Unable to talk her out of it, Zhao Xiaoshuai just assumed his Sister-in-law was sentimental.

His Sister-in-law was just like an ordinary student; she didn't have many nice clothes. After living here for so many years, a single computer and a large suitcase were all she possessed.

Zhao Xiaoshuai had previously bought quite a few clothes for his Sister-in-law at Sun Yingxue's shop. Because it was still the Spring Festival holiday, shipping was slow, and they wouldn't arrive until tomorrow or the day after.

Then he would be able to fill up his Sister-in-law's wardrobe a bit more, and unlock even more casual-wear versions of his Sister-in-law.

Because her classmate was about to move out, Zhao Wei from across the hall came out to see her off.

"Chu Xinyi, I only rented the place across from you because I heard you were here. Now that you're moving away, if my range hood breaks in the future... boohoo..."

Zhao Wei was only halfway through her sentence when Chu Xinyi covered her mouth. "My new place isn't far from here. I'll invite you over to hang out in a few days."

Watching his Sister-in-law joking around with her classmate, Zhao Xiaoshuai also revealed a gratified smile.

It seemed the little girl was much better than her sister; at least she could make friends.

Since the place was very close, it only took about ten minutes to get his Sister-in-law settled into her new home.

This apartment was over ninety square meters. Although it seemed a bit small and cramped by Zhao Xiaoshuai's current standards, it was exactly the size he had once planned for his own marital home.

After all, his Sister-in-law was living alone, so this apartment was big enough.

"Do you want to bring your dad to live in the city?"

Hearing her brother-in-law's question, his Sister-in-law thought about it seriously for a moment before shaking her head:

"My dad is incredibly stubborn; no one can convince him otherwise. He can't let go of those few plots of land. If he doesn't farm for even a single day, he feels uncomfortable all over."

"When he gets a bit older, I'll try to persuade him again."

In fact, after Chu Xinyi started making money online, she had already brought up the idea of moving to the city to her father, but she had never been able to convince the old man.

After she started earning money, she often subsidized the household expenses in Zhao Xiaoshuai's name, so her father now treated farming purely as a hobby and was no longer so exhausted.

So there was no need to force it.

For many of the older generation, making them leave the rhythm of life they've been accustomed to for decades actually makes them very uncomfortable.

"Oh right, Brother-in-law, don't forget the fireworks you promised me."

"Why would you watch fireworks in broad daylight? Wait until tonight, and I'll come pick you up by car then."

"Yay! I'll be waiting."

After a simple housewarming meal with his Sister-in-law, Zhao Xiaoshuai arrived at iSport.

Since taking over iSport, Meng Yawen had been very diligent. Although she didn't seem to be able to help much, she spent the vast majority of her day here.

iSport had been bought as a complete package, and all the existing clientele were perfectly inherited.

Because Zhao Xiaoshuai paid a sufficient price, the previous owner, Ma Dongxi, had also handed over all the supplier information he had on hand.

It could be said that whether she was here or not made no difference to the shop; everything just ran according to the established rules, and all she had to do was collect the money.

However, Meng Yawen didn't think so.

This was a business her boyfriend had personally handed to her. She treated this shop as the crystallization of their love, and deep down, she wanted to run it better and better.

Therefore, in her spare time recently, she had been studying knowledge related to operations and management; she was working even harder than on the night before her final exams.

When Zhao Xiaoshuai found her, she was working hard in what used to be Ma Dongxi's office.

"Hey, you're here! Why didn't you tell me in advance?"

"What, are you afraid of a surprise attack from me?"

"No way! But I didn't put on proper makeup today. Wait for me while I go touch it up."

When they had first met, Meng Yawen basically wore no makeup, and the time she spent on her appearance every day was very little.

But as she fell deeply in love with Zhao Xiaoshuai, and with Chu Xinyi, that "freak," often appearing around her, she gradually learned how to apply makeup properly in private.

The time she spent on makeup every day kept getting longer and longer.

"No need, you're already very pretty without makeup."

This wasn't just empty sweet talk. Excluding his Sister-in-law, the highest-rated high-quality woman Zhao Xiaoshuai had encountered so far was an 8/10 in terms of looks.

An 8/10 rating was already at the level of a campus belle who could absolutely dominate a university; she looked great even without makeup, so his little girlfriend had no need for appearance anxiety.

Don't look at how many top-tier attractive streamers there are online right now; once you strip away the technological enhancements, those who can truly reach an eight are as rare as phoenix feathers and unicorn horns.

Or rather, if you have 8/10 looks in reality, there are just too many paths open to you. Going online to compete is actually abandoning your own strengths.

Because technology levels the playing field, erasing their inherent natural advantages.

"Come on, let's go get some exercise."

Zhao Xiaoshuai had been very farsighted from the beginning, reserving one of each type of VIP private room. None of them were open to the public; they were kept entirely for his own private use.

A short while later, his little girlfriend, now changed into a bikini, looked at him helplessly: "Coming to the yoga studio and making me wear this swimsuit again—what exactly are you trying to do?"

Zhao Xiaoshuai just smiled mysteriously. "You've already guessed it, so why ask me?"

His little girlfriend was dragged to the center of the floor, looking confused. Zhao Xiaoshuai took out his phone and pulled up a picture. "Can you do this pose?"

His little girlfriend took the phone and glanced at the picture.

"Testing me? What's hard about this!"

As she spoke, his little girlfriend tried it a couple of times and grasped the essentials.

This pose was actually somewhat difficult and really tested core strength.

His little girlfriend perfectly replicated the pose in the picture and smiled triumphantly.

Who knew that with a meaningful "Good opportunity," Zhao Xiaoshuai would pounce on her.

You have to realize that Meng Yawen was wearing that string bikini, so the impact of such a position can be imagined.

He kindly helped support his girlfriend's legs, "Stand steady, don't let your legs go weak."

"Ah! I knew you didn't have good intentions!"

...

...

"Liqin, those two have been inside for over an hour. What do you think they're doing in the VIP room?"

The front desk girl, Shen Liqin, looked speechlessly at the lemon-turned-human Gong Meimei. "One is the boss, and the other is the boss's wife. They can stay in as long as they want and play whatever they want. Why are you worrying about it?"

"Whenever I think that the person who went inside with Brother Zhao should have been me, I feel terrible."

'You should go pee and look at yourself in it!'

She didn't end up saying her inner thoughts out loud, but Shen Liqin couldn't be bothered to pay attention to her anymore and just left her there talking to herself.

"Hello, Sister Shen, is my Sister Wenwen here?"

Shen Liqin recognized this little girl with the strange hairstyle. She knew she was very close with the boss's family; recently, whenever she came, the boss's wife would personally guide her in her workouts.

"The boss and the boss's wife are in Yoga VIP001."

"Thank you, sister."

Watching the little girl walk away, Shen Liqin suddenly realized: is it really appropriate for her to just walk in like that right now?
