Who Would Fall in Love After Being Reborn?

Chapter 156: Can’t Get Any Deeper
TL: Etude
In the blink of an eye, it was 7 p.m.
Just as Jiang Qin had predicted, once the first round of group purchases was successfully completed, the evening orders began to surge at an astonishing rate, leaving even Su Nai somewhat astounded.
The reason was quite simple.
Winter nights were colder than the days, making it inconvenient and unnecessary to go out.
Moreover, many had seen the little yellow caps in the school and witnessed their roommates and classmates successfully purchasing from the group-buying website, dispelling their fears of being cheated or wasting time.
Most importantly, college students were sensitive to trends and quick to adopt new things.
Home delivery and discounts were irresistible attractions.
So, from noon to seven in the evening, orders accumulated in the backend, were sorted and compiled by the system, and then sent to the merchants and delivery personnel.
Winter items from the pedestrian street were selling like hotcakes on this snowy day.
Items like quilts for sleeping, blankets for studying or gaming, fluffy cotton slippers, thick cotton socks, and thick leggings were almost must-have items.
Additionally, food and beverages from the supermarket were selling exceptionally fast, second only to hand warmers.
However, there were no orders from the Wanzhong Shopping Center, which was a bit disappointing for Jiang Qin.
This was partly due to the high prices of the malls goods and partly because they only delivered at 8 p.m. each day, both of which deterred customers.
Look, the group purchase delivery person is here again.
Ah, is it already 7 p.m.?
Yes, its the last delivery for today. I ordered some fruits, after all, its winter now, and the weather is too dry.
I also bought some hand warmers to stock up. They were very cheap.
Under the cold snowy night, delivery personnel with little yellow caps, breathing out cold air, returned fully loaded and once again entered the school under the orange-yellow street lights, attracting the attention of many students with their chic caps.
Even though the compacted snow slowed down the delivery and delayed arrival times, most people were understanding.
With the cold and slippery conditions, many students in the school had fallen, and even the official website had issued a safety notice. Therefore, people didnt mind a few minutes delay in delivery.
After delivering to the last building, the delivery person Tian Xiangjia even received a bottle of water from a student, feeling an unexpected warmth in this cold night.
He left the dormitory area, parked his tricycle somewhere unobtrusive, then took out his phone, opened the calculator app, and started calculating his earnings for the day.
He was shocked by the amount.
Even after excluding the initial bonus, his earnings were equivalent to what he would make in two full days of part-time work.
He heard the boss was a freshman from the finance department. Damn impressive!
[Sis, Ive switched to a new job, a long-term one. You dont have to work so hard out there anymore. Maybe I can even earn enough for our little brothers tuition fees!]
Tian Xiangjia sent a message to his sister, who was working in a first-tier city, then hummed a song and rode his tricycle southward.
Every person born into this world was struggling against fate, hoping for a better future.
Boss, the last delivery for today is done.
Okay, thanks for everyones hard work. Ive booked a table at Shiwei Tian. Go and eat first. Theres one last wave tonight; it might be a bit more work.
In the brightly lit Room 208, Jiang Qin waved his hand, letting everyone go for dinner.
The successful launch on the first day was worth celebrating. Even a minimum standard like Shiwei Tian was deserved. Losing money was strangely satisfying.
Jiang Qin let go of the mouse, stretched, and looked at the wall clock.
Although the last delivery of the day was over, new orders would continue to come in tonight, accumulating until tomorrow mornings delivery slot.
So, the real marketing challenge wasnt over at eight. For Jiang Qin, maintaining the momentum until the next day was crucial.
As he pondered, everyone in Room 208 put on their coats, moved their hands and feet, and headed out of the entrepreneurship center.
Seeing this, Tang Lin, responsible for the project presentation PPT, couldnt help feeling a bit envious.
Tang Lins envy wasnt just about going to Shiwei Tian for dinner. It was more about the sense of unity, the excitement of working with full vigor, and the feeling of achievement in creating a new consumer method.
And the source of all this was that enigmatic man.
Senior Sister Cao, Hong Yan, Tang Lin, you should join us too.
Ah? Can we go as well? Tang Lins eyes lit up.
Jiang Qin nodded naturally: Everyone is working hard for the same project. It wouldnt be fair if only they get to eat and you dont. Go ahead, eat a lot.
Cao Xinyue gave a thumbs up after hearing this: Not bad, little junior. Ive been here so long and finally heard something reasonable. I wont be polite then. Just dont complain that I eat too much.
Dont be polite, eat all you want. Best if you get so fat that your boyfriend dumps you, then you can come work part-time for me.
Pfft, dont jinx it. Our relationship is going strong!
Cao Xinyue put on her coat with a smile, leading Hong Yan and Tang Lin out of the office.
At this moment, Tang Lin saw an infinite charm in Jiang Qin, shining brightly in the cold snowy night.
Everyone, go have dinner. Ive booked a table.
Damn, that sounded like something a domineering CEO from a novel would say. No wonder so many campus beauties secretly admired him.
A young face with the demeanor of a mature man, unflappable and composed, it was almost lethal.
Tang Lin felt that even she couldnt help but be charmed by such a man.
No, not just a man, but a god!
However, she knew her own looks werent enough to catch the attention of such a radiant man. Perhaps her best friend had a chance, though!
Thinking this, Tang Lin suddenly envisioned a beautiful, aloof face.
Well, the chances might be slim, but they werent zero.
Hong Yan, are you still thinking of pursuing Jiang Qin? I support you! Tang Lin suddenly blurted out.
Hong Yan stumbled at the words, nearly falling at the doorstep: What are you talking about? Didnt we agree not to mention this?
Cao Xinyue turned around in surprise. She wasnt aware of the previous corridor incident: Yan Yan, you pursued Jiang Qin? I had no idea.
Well, sort of
Eh, I never heard about it.
It wasnt recent, it was back at the beginning of the semester, Hong Yan admitted openly.
Cao Xinyues eyes widened in surprise: And now?
There was a mountain I couldnt climb over. And I heard, even that mountain couldnt crush Jiang Qin.
Hong Yan tightened her down jacket and looked at the dim streetlights in the cold night, feeling a bit melancholic.
She always thought the saying lovers dont talk about love was a joke. Who wouldnt want a sweet romance in college?
It wasnt until she learned about Jiang Qin and Chu Siqis story that she realized he truly didnt believe in love.
Empty words are useless, right?
But having experienced Chu Siqis suffocating tactics, she understood where Jiang Qins pain lay.
Love was a waste of time for him.
Otherwise, with Feng Jiejies beauty and figure, she would have already turned Jiang Qin upside down.
So, its better not to pursue such low-success endeavors. Better not to get too deep, only to end up with a bad outcome.
Whats wrong with a mountain? Ive heard of the Foolish Old Man who moved mountains since I was a child!
Tang Lin suddenly sounded defiant.
What do you mean?
A flicker of confusion passed through Hong Yans eyes.
In novels, isnt there always that kind of male lead who doesnt fall for the stunningly beautiful rich girl but instead likes Cinderella? And Hong Yan, youre several levels above Cinderella!
Tang Lin emphasized the word levels heavily.
But as you said, thats in novels, not reality.
Hong Yan smiled faintly, choosing not to respond further.
She had high emotional intelligence, so she didnt let her emotions cloud her judgment. In plain terms, she was very rational.
Her rational analysis told her that pursuing this further was futile and would likely lead to a bad ending.
So, she started to suppress those feelings.
This was where she differed from Tang Lin.
Tang Lin was too impulsive, daring to venture into uncertain endeavors, often ending up hurt in the process.
Hong Yan had advised her many times to think things through and proceed only when there was a reasonable chance of success. But it seemed her words had fallen on deaf ears.
Wait, whos this mountain? Cao Xinyue suddenly asked.
Tang Lin waved her hand, Its Feng Nanshu. Her face looks like she bribed God. Havent you seen her, senior?
Oh, Feng Nanshu. Ive seen her many times. Arent she and Jiang Qin together?
No, although people in the office call her the boss lady, Xue Mei sister said Jiang Qin always maintains they are just good friends.
Cao Xinyue, busy with her work at the general office and her relationship with her boyfriend from another school, had little time for gossip.
Only now did she realize that Feng Nanshu and Jiang Qin hadnt officially confirmed their relationship.
Wow, resisting ordinary girls was one thing, but even resisting someone like Feng Nanshu?
Jiang Qin really took to heart that statement he wrote in his startup application form.
Jiang Qin is indeed a very strange person.
Yes, it feels like he thinks a lot and sees things with a sharp and detached perspective.
But surely, one cant go their whole life without falling in love, right?
I dont know, but it always seems like hes chasing something and at the same time, afraid of something.
