Outrageous! Who said my wife is vain?!
Chapter 28 Influencer Store Visits
Qiqi loves to eat meat. She is a small internet celebrity living in Beijing with just over 200,000 followers on Douyin. Her real name is Li Yaqi.
I've had the desire to dedicate myself to the internet industry for several years now, and I've tried many different approaches.
I've shot makeup videos, everyday outfit videos, various product reviews, and even comedy skits... but without exception, they've all failed.
In fact, she has delicate features, and with Douyin's powerful beauty filter, she can be considered a stunning beauty.
But he doesn't have many fans. Whether he becomes popular or not is a matter of fate. Many internet celebrities become famous overnight for no apparent reason.
Six months ago, she set her sights on the food industry, and her videos mainly consisted of restaurant reviews, food sharing, and immersive mukbang videos, while she would also occasionally shoot some daily vlogs.
With her absolutely genuine restaurant reviews and clean, unpretentious eating habits, she attracted a lot of fans. In less than 200,000 new followers in six months, she has already achieved remarkable success in today's highly competitive influencer industry.
Although her results are quite good, she also experiences a lot of anxiety every day. Besides filming and editing, she spends her time staring at her own data and the videos and data of other big internet celebrities, analyzing what her fans like to watch and what they don't like to watch, and what the current hot topics are.
On the day of its opening, Burger King gained a large group of customers who would come back again and again. In addition to the official Burger King account, these people also spontaneously shared this newly discovered gem of a store on their own social media platforms.
Li Yaqi usually pays close attention to what restaurants or newly opened shops are in Beijing, since exploring restaurants is a major part of her videos.
Seeing how popular this newly opened store in Beijing was on its first day, she naturally had to go and film it – such great material!
It's better to be early than late. The next morning, Li Yaqi arrived at Burger King before 10:30.
After negotiating with Zhao Pan and being granted permission to take photos, Li Yaqi, who had ordered her food and was sitting in a booth, couldn't help but marvel at her own wisdom. If she had arrived any later, there would have been no seats left. In the short time she was waiting for her food, people kept coming in.
Smelling the delicious aroma in the air and hearing the rave reviews from customers at the next table who had already started eating, Li Yaqi knew she had come to the right place; this restaurant was destined to be a huge hit.
After she finished preparing her meal and brought it back, she took a bunch of photos with her camera and then couldn't wait to start eating.
"Wow!" Li Yaqi's eyes lit up. "Family, I've discovered a hidden gem of a burger joint! This shrimp burger is absolutely amazing! (chewing) It feels like shrimp is dancing on my tongue!"
"This pastry is also very special, it's crispy and chewy (chew chew chew). This chicken is so tender and juicy, what marinade did they put in it? It's so delicious! I can't describe the taste! (chew chew chew)"
"The chicken and onion rings actually have a sweet taste from the onions, which blends perfectly with the tender chicken, making them fragrant but not greasy."
Li Yaqi got more and more into the food, and the praise kept pouring out like it was free. Perhaps afraid that her fans would question her later, she turned the camera around while she was talking.
"Family, it's really, really, really delicious. You might think I'm exaggerating a bit, (chewing) but I swear, I'm telling you the truth. If you don't believe me, look how many people are in the store right now. It's not even lunchtime yet, and it's already packed."
After filming her around for a while, Li Yaqi continued her mukbang and explanation in front of the camera.
"I've said 'amazing' enough already, but this egg tart is absolutely amazing (chewing). The crust is incredibly crispy and savory, while the filling is sweet, tender, and bursting with milky flavor..."
……
When Chu Yu brought Mingxi to the Burger King, it was already past 1 p.m.
The main problem was that Mingxi stayed in bed too long. After Chu Yu got up, ate breakfast, and handled a lot of work online, he finally got up lazily.
It also gave him a glimpse into just how popular Burger King is; even before entering the store, he could see the packed crowd through the glass windows.
Not only inside the store, but also at the entrance, there were many customers who had ordered their food and were chatting while waiting for their number to be called to pick it up.
"This restaurant is so popular! There were a lot of people when I ate here yesterday, but it wasn't nearly as crowded as it is today. There are more than two hundred people ahead of me!" The girl said helplessly, looking at the real-time order queue on her phone.
"Yes, I saw it on my WeChat Moments yesterday. Someone said this place is super delicious, so I thought I'd try it today. I didn't expect it to be so crowded."
"But it's worth the wait. It's really, really delicious. I'm not exaggerating when I say it's the best burger I've ever had in my life. It's much better than those fancy handmade burgers."
"Ugh, that makes me want to eat even more! When is it my turn yet?!"
......
Wearing a mask and hat, Mingxi's large eyes widened in surprise. "Brother Chu, is business really that good? There are so many people!"
How much money must he make in a day! Is he already very close to owning a big house?! Mingxi became more and more excited as she thought about it, her big eyes seemingly shining.
Chu Yu smiled and patted his head. "Isn't it natural for business to be good? It will only get better in the future. Let's go inside."
Upon entering the store, the two were struck by its bustling business. The store was packed with people, every table was full, and there were also a bunch of customers waiting to reserve seats.
"Is it not ready yet? When will the food be served? I've been waiting for so long."
"Hello customer, I completely understand how you feel. The kitchen is working overtime to prepare it, but to ensure the quality of the food, please wait a moment. We will do our best to get it to you as soon as possible."
....
"So delicious, so delicious! I can't get enough of it even if I eat here three times a day. I hereby declare that this restaurant will be my new canteen from now on."
"This little castle character is so cute, take a picture of me, I want to post it on social media."
....
Chu Yu raised his hand to signal the shop assistant not to greet him, then pulled Mingxi into the staff break room.
"The lounge is much more spacious and comfortable than the office. Let's eat here; it's quiet too," Chu Yu said casually.
Mingxi looked around the lounge in front of her. It was spacious and bright, with light gray non-slip floor tiles and soft off-white walls.
In the center of the room were several long wooden tables and matching chairs, with a few small green plants on the tabletops. Against the left wall was a long sofa bed.
A simple dining area was set up in the right corner, equipped with a microwave, water dispenser and small refrigerator.
There is also a bulletin board next to it, which displays the work schedule, details of in-store activities, and some safety and hygiene tips.
"Brother Chu, the environment in your lounge is quite nice."
"Maintain a balance between work and rest; make sure you get enough rest outside of work."
"Knock knock knock!" A knocking sound came from outside the door.
"Enter."
After Zhao Pan entered the room, she said, "Hello, Mr. Chu. And this gentleman is?"
Chu Yu introduced the two, "This is my boyfriend, Mingxi."
"Mingxi, this is the store manager, Zhao Pan."
Zhao Pan took one look and exclaimed, "Wow, this is their CEO Chu's boyfriend!" Even though he was wearing a mask, you could tell he was a great beauty just by looking at his exposed eyes.
He quickly greeted him with a smile, "Hello, Mr. Ming."
Mingxi took off her mask, smiled, and said, "Hello, no need to be so polite, just call me Mingxi."
Zhao Pan noticed that the landlady looked even better without her mask, but unfortunately, she wasn't a fan of celebrities and didn't recognize Mingxi, the minor star. She just thought he was really good-looking.
"Okay, Mingxi, haha, calling me that makes us feel much closer. Well then, I won't stand on ceremony. You can call me Zhao Pan or Panpan, it's fine."
"Then I'll call you Panpan."
Then Zhao Pan said to Chu Yu, "Mr. Chu, is there anything you need? Would you like me to make you a cup of tea? And what would Mingxi like to drink?"
Chu Yu said, "I brought him here to get something to eat. You go ahead and do your thing. We'll order by scanning the QR code."
Zhao Pan replied, "After you place your order, could you please send me the order number so I can bring it to you?"
"Yes, thank you for your hard work."
"It's no trouble at all, it's all what I should do, you're too kind."
After Zhao Pan left, Mingxi lay on the sofa and sighed, "Being a boss is really great."
Chu Yu couldn't help but chuckle, "Then why did you say you didn't want to be a boss?"
"Being a boss is too tiring, I'll just be the boss's wife."
"That's ridiculous logic. Alright, come over here and see what we're having for dinner."
Hearing Chu Yu's call, Mingxi got up and came behind him, leaning against his back. Looking at the various delicious foods on her phone screen, she said, "They all look so delicious, I'm so conflicted."
"Order whatever you want, and I'll take care of anything you can't finish." Besides work, he also spends a lot of time working out and boxing, so he has a big appetite.
"Oh! My husband is so good."
They quickly ordered everything, and their meals arrived in less than ten minutes.
Mingxi immediately started taking pictures and videos. After that, she was extremely busy, praising how delicious the food was while eating, and still had to find time to edit the photos.
Although Chu Yu ended up cleaning up most of the mess, Mingxi still rubbed her belly and felt a pang of regret. "It was delicious, but thinking about how much weight I'll gain tomorrow makes me want to cry."
"You're not fat at all, so why are you worried about gaining weight? But you should exercise more. By the way, when we first met, didn't you say you were interested in boxing and even asked me to teach you? Why don't you mention it now?" Chu Yu teased him on purpose.
Mentioning this made Mingxi instantly deflate. He had absolutely no interest in boxing; he had only said those things to get closer to Mingxi.
Then she started to act spoiled, clinging to Chu Yu, saying, "There are other ways to exercise besides boxing."
"What else?"
"For example...going shopping!" Mingxi smiled slyly.
"You."
"Hehe, will you go shopping with me? Okay?"
"I can only browse for a short while; I have an online meeting at four o'clock."
"Okay, I promise I won't interfere with your work!"
