Internet moguls are being held hostage by the entertainment system!

Chapter 4: What kind of cringey online name is that? Hehe
Chen Xiu, who lived to the spring of his previous life at age 25, naturally knew the meaning of the character "Meng".

Looking down, he also got a clear look at the female classmate sitting on the ground.

She had a head of smooth black hair that grew on a beautifully shaped head. Her forehead was full, and her two willow-leaf eyebrows were tightly furrowed. A hint of annoyance was revealed in her round and bright peach blossom eyes... Then she stood up.

"Hey kid, how can you be so careless while walking? You made me lose my phone!"

Meng Ziyi stood with her hands on her hips, glaring at Chen Xiu, her full red lips pouting upwards.

What Chen Xiu found strange was that although she said her phone was lost, she didn't immediately go look for it.

Seeing Meng Ziyi staring intently at him, oblivious to everything else, Chen Xiu pointed to the concrete ground behind her.

"It looks like you dropped your phone there."

"I know! But if you bump into someone, shouldn't you apologize to me first? Are all freshmen this rude these days?"

Hearing that she had been inexplicably demoted two levels, Chen Xiu awkwardly raised her eyebrows.

To ensure the success of today's meeting, he did dress younger and his hairstyle had the innocent and simple feel of a college student. Given that they are not that far apart in age, it is normal to be misunderstood.

Having thought things through, Chen Xiu, not wanting to cause any more trouble, smiled slightly and sincerely apologized to Meng Ziyi for the responsibility she also needed to bear.

"I'm sorry, I should be more careful when I walk. I hope I didn't bother you."

"You apologized so easily..."

Meng Ziyi looked sullen, somewhat surprised by Chen Xiu's attitude.

Normally, young people have high hormone levels and are prone to impulsiveness. Even if they are wrong, they will usually argue a bit to save face.

It's rare to see someone like Chen Xiu apologize right away.

As a spicy girl from Northeast China, Meng Ziyi is the type who responds better to gentle persuasion than force. If Chen Xiu chooses to argue, she will not be intimidated.

Now Chen Xiu has chosen to sincerely apologize, and Meng Ziyi has also begun to calm down and "reflect" on his own problems.

"Well, I also have a problem with this. I shouldn't have been making a phone call while looking down and walking so fast."

"Why don't you check your phone first?"

Chen Xiu pointed to the iPhone 5 lying on the ground, hoping the accident would end quickly.

Although his chance encounter with the most beautiful girl at the Beijing Film Academy sounds quite romantic, he didn't intend to have any further interaction with her.

Meng Ziyi probably sensed Chen Xiu's attitude. A hint of surprise flashed across her bright face, but she didn't say anything. She just turned around and ran over to pick up her phone.

She stiffened for a moment when she picked up her phone.

Chen Xiu, who went over to check, could clearly see cracks spreading across the phone screen like a spider web. It seemed that her connection with her wasn't so shallow after all...

Noticing Chen Xiu approaching, Meng Ziyi turned around in a panic: "My phone screen was fine before, um, I really didn't mean to scam you..."

"Can it still be turned on?"

"what?"

"I said, can the phone still be turned on and used normally? If so, first check if there is any problem with the internal screen, and also check the touch screen and earpiece functions."

Meng Ziyi paused for a moment, then followed Chen Xiu's instructions and checked each phone one by one.

The only problem was that the outer screen glass was cracked; all other functions remained intact.

Seeing that the phone was still usable, and that replacing the outer screen wouldn't cost too much, Meng Ziyi instinctively wanted to let the matter drop.

"Let me add you on WeChat. I'll send you a red envelope to cover the phone repair costs."

Chen Xiu took out her phone, opened the scan function, and gestured for Meng Ziyi to show the QR code.

"Huh? Oh oh."

Meng Ziyi opened WeChat in a daze, tapped on her personal business card QR code, and just as she was showing it, a look of suspicion suddenly flashed across her face, and she also turned her wrist down at an angle.

Chen Xiu frowned slightly: "I haven't scanned it yet..."

"Did you wait here specifically to add me on WeChat?" Meng Ziyi asked, tilting her chin up and looking bright.

She was wondering why she had bumped into someone while talking on the phone at school, since she never did.

Now that Chen Xiu mentioned adding her on WeChat, Meng Ziyi, who had witnessed many boys' tricks since childhood, instantly recalled that someone in high school had used the same method to get her QQ number!

At this moment, just as at that moment.

These men all use the exact same methods; they don't even know how to keep up with the times.

Meng Ziyi inwardly criticized Chen Xiu's outdatedness, a smug smile appearing on his lips: "If you want my WeChat, you can just say so. Why did you have to bump into me and knock my phone away..."

Chen Xiu, who had a good understanding of girls' psychology, figured out Meng Ziyi's thoughts as soon as she finished listening to the conversation.

It's quite frustrating to be seen as a scheming little boy.

"I'll add you on WeChat, we just won't chat."

"Who knows, maybe you'll send me some jokes to make me want to chat with you first!"

"So if I send you a joke, you'll initiate a conversation?"

"Hey, hey hey!"

Meng Ziyi stretched out his index finger and tapped the air repeatedly, looking smug as if he had caught Chen Xiu's weakness.

"You've given yourself away!"

"Hmm, how about you delete me after you've received the red envelope?"

"No, that would be too rude. I don't usually delete people."

"Sigh~~~"

Chen Xiu took a deep breath. This was the first time he had ever encountered a situation where he couldn't even get money from someone, and he was actually having a bit of a headache over it. It was truly ridiculous.

Meng Ziyi blinked, pursed her lips, suppressing the urge to curl her lips upward, but couldn't help feeling smug inside.

She felt that it was quite interesting to make a serious person break down like this.

As for adding each other on WeChat, those are minor matters.

She's not naive; she knows perfectly well that if someone doesn't want to chat, nothing the other person sends will make a difference.

However, seeing this classmate who was clearly not old but liked to act calm and mature, Meng Ziyi would want to tease him, as a way of getting revenge for the mistake of bumping into him.

"Alright, since you don't want to add me on WeChat, just tell me your bank card number and I'll transfer the money to you directly!"

Chen Xiu exited WeChat and opened online banking instead.

Seeing that the game was getting out of hand, Meng Ziyi pursed his lips and decided to quit while he was ahead: "The card number is so long, how am I supposed to memorize it! Let's just add each other on WeChat. Here, scan my QR code!"

"Sigh~~"

Chen Xiu felt that she had been tricked by Meng Ziyi, but she had no evidence.

After scanning the QR code and successfully completing the friend verification, he kept asking, "How much does it cost to replace the outer screen? If you don't know, I'll just transfer 1000."

"No, my mom says I can't take advantage of others."

Meng Ziyi held the phone and shook his head repeatedly: "Replacing the glass screen will cost 1000. I'll go get it fixed myself in a few days, and I'll send you a picture of the bill then."

Okay, that's settled, bye-bye!

After saying that, Chen Xiu left without looking back.

Watching his retreating figure, Meng Ziyi glanced down at her WeChat profile.

"Grand Magister... What a cringeworthy username? Hehe."
