A sophomore in college starts by getting a marriage certificate with a female CEO.

Financial fraud.

Lu Yang understood the weight of those four words better than anyone else.

If it's just ordinary bad debt, then it's at most due to the target company's poor management.

However, once financial fraud is involved, the nature of the matter is completely different.

It's important to understand that Xueyu Group spent hundreds of millions to buy this company, and on paper, it appears to have ample assets. But in reality, the valuable assets had already been emptied by the original shareholders through shell companies overseas.

What we bought was just an empty shell.

Hundreds of millions gone down the drain.

Moreover, once the acquisition is completed, what will happen to Xueyu Group's stock price if the target company is found to have committed financial fraud?

At best, Li Xixue, as the actual controller, will have to bear the responsibility for the decision-making error, and the board's trust will collapse directly.

In severe cases, if the information is suspected of being false, an investigation will be launched directly.

At that point, Li Xixue's troubles will not be just about losing a few hundred million, but will shake the very foundation of the Xueyu Group.

It was at this time that...

Wang Hao, who had just finished a game, suddenly leaned over to take a look.

"Old Yang, what are you doing? There are so many tables and numbers, it's making my eyes dizzy."

"Get to work."

Lu Yang didn't even look up.

Staring at the pile of incomprehensible information on the screen, Wang Hao felt his head spinning: "Wait, you're only in your internship, why are you working yourself to the bone? By the way, we don't have classes this afternoon, how about we go out and have some fun?"

"What's so cool about that? Go work in the store."

Lu Yang said calmly, "Clear out the waste in the kitchen this afternoon, and I'll treat you to barbecue tonight."

Upon hearing that there was barbecue...

Wang Hao's eyes lit up instantly: "Godfather, you promised to treat me to barbecue, no take-backs allowed."

Xu Guangkun chimed in, "I want pork belly, all you can eat."

Lu Yang closed his laptop: "Enough."

The old professor's lectures were both dry and lengthy, and I finally made it to the end of get out of class.

Wang Hao quickly packed his things: "Let's go, let's go to the store."

Li Yunbin said, "What's the rush? You're not going to see a maid."

"Can't I go see my three hundred dollars?"

Li Yunbin ignored the money-grubbing guy and instead asked Lu Yang, "So, Lao Yang, is there any progress on the maid recruitment?"

Lu Yang nodded: "A little."

The group walked out of the teaching building, scanned four shared electric scooters, and each rode one over.

Upon arriving at the shop, the three divided up the tasks.

Wang Hao was in charge of sweeping the floor, Li Yunbin was in charge of wiping the walls, and Xu Guangkun was in charge of taking out the trash.

Lu Yang then took a measuring tape and began measuring the dimensions of each corner.

The renovation team will be starting work tomorrow, so we need to take the measurements today.

He had already decided on the location of the bar area; it would be set directly opposite the main entrance, so that the first thing customers would see upon entering would be the maids standing behind the bar.

The visual impact is off the charts.

The operating room is placed in a small cubicle at the back; it doesn't need to be too big, just big enough.

The seating area is by the window, with four to five sets of two-person tables.

The interior design features a Japanese-style natural wood color scheme, complemented by warm-toned lighting strips.

"Old Yang," Wang Hao suddenly stopped sweeping, "I have a question."

"explain."

"What's the name of this shop?"

Lu Yang thought for a moment.

To be honest, he hadn't really thought about this matter in detail.

"What suggestions do you have?"

Wang Hao was the first to raise his hand: "How about calling it 'Godfather's Shop'?"

"Get lost." Lu Yang coldly uttered a single word.

Li Yunbin pushed up his glasses: "'Maid Milk Tea'? That's a cute name, and it's memorable."

"That's terrible."

Lu Yang shook his head.

What are these people thinking?

Xu Guangkun thought for a moment and then said, "How about 'Please come in, esteemed guests'?"

"Are you trying to lure Uncle Hat here?"

Lu Yang rolled his eyes in annoyance.

A name should be easy to remember, distinctive, and not too straightforward.

If you put up a sign saying "Maid Milk Tea Shop" at the entrance, it's no different from hanging up a sign that's barely operating.

"Let's call it... 'First Encounter Teahouse'."

"First time seeing a teahouse?"

Wang Hao read it twice, "Is there any special meaning behind this name?"

There's no explanation.

Lu Yang put away the measuring tape. "If it sounds good, that's all that matters."

The three of them continued working for about an hour.

The surrounding trash and oil stains on the walls have all been cleaned up.

Lu Yang looked around and nodded.

"That's about it."

Wang Hao slumped to the ground: "Godfather, I've finished the 300 yuan job. When are you going to pay me back for the barbecue?"

"late."

"And now?"

"Waiting for someone."

Wang Hao was taken aback: "Waiting for whom?"

The question hadn't been finished.

Two beautiful figures appeared at the shop entrance.

There were two girls.

The one walking in front was wearing a cream-colored short-sleeved T-shirt and a light gray pleated skirt. She wasn't very tall, about 1.65 meters, and had a high ponytail. She had a slim waist, long legs, and delicate features.

The one walking behind had a completely different demeanor.

He's noticeably taller, probably a little over 1.7 meters.

Her long hair was loose and fell naturally down to her chest.

She has an oval face, cool-looking eyebrows and eyes, and full lips. When she's not smiling, she exudes a distant and unapproachable aura. She's wearing a black tank top with a thin denim jacket over it, denim shorts, and canvas shoes.

One is sweet, the other is cool.

In terms of style, they're like the girl next door and the girl next door's older sister.

Wow! What a beautiful girl!

The three of them stared wide-eyed.

The next moment, the two girls walked over following the navigation.

The girl walking ahead asked hesitantly, "Excuse me... is this the address for the job interview?"

Upon hearing this, Lu Yang smiled and replied, "You're Xia Ning, the one who was supposed to come for the interview, right?"

The girl walking in front immediately nodded: "Yes, my name is Xia Ning."

As she spoke, Xia Ning introduced the oval-faced girl behind her: "This is my younger sister, Xia Qing."

However, he hadn't finished speaking.

Wang Hao, Li Yunbin, and Xu Guangkun rushed over instantly and greeted the two women in unison.

"Hello, hello! My name is Wang Hao!"

"Li Yunbin, a finance student!"

"Xu Guangkun, my friends all call me Brother Kun!"

They had expected the girls Lu Yang recruited to be pretty, but they didn't expect them to be this pretty!

To be honest, if they were in school, they would definitely be considered school beauties!

Xia Ning instinctively grabbed Xia Qing's hand and took a half step back.

He was clearly frightened by the three of them.

Xia Qing didn't move much, but she frowned slightly.

If the three people in front of her dared to take another step forward, she would immediately punch them away.

Lu Yang immediately interrupted the three of them and pointed to the back door: "You three go to the back and move the rest of the waste out."

Li Yunbin protested, "Why should I? I want to be an interviewer too!"

Xu Guangkun also expressed his desire to be an interviewer: "We can't expect you to get all the dirty and tiring work while we do all the hard stuff, can we?"

Lu Yang immediately transformed into the strictest father: "Get out of my way!"
