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

Looking at the content on the forum, Lu Yang's eye twitched involuntarily.

He clicked on it.

The post included several pictures.

The first image is a close-up of the menu.

The second photo is a close-up of a cup of Bo Ya's Broken Strings, taken quite skillfully with soft lighting.

The last picture shows Xia Ning standing behind the bar, dressed in a maid outfit, smiling brightly and making a peace sign.

Moreover, there were already hundreds of replies in the comments section at this point.

[Holy crap, is this for real? The two beauties from Chengjiang are working at a bubble tea shop dressed as maids?]

Brother, let me speak with you privately!

[Where's the address? Quick! Send it to me and I'll go there right now!!!]

[Aww, my goddess Xia Ning is so cute! She looks absolutely stunning in her maid outfit!]

[Wait a minute, you mean Xia Qing is here too? The Xia Qing who sent Zhou Yu flying? She's wearing a maid outfit??? I don't believe it unless you send me a picture of her face.]

[Hahaha, I dare not film it, I'm afraid I'll get beaten up.]

To be honest, I'd really like to be hit by her once. Please feel free to abuse me.

[You're the Reward Guy, right?]

【…】

Lu Yang put down his phone, exhaled, and then looked towards the store entrance.

There are more people now.

One customer after another entered the store.

It's a world of difference compared to the deserted scene just now.

Lu Yang never expected that Xia Ning and Xia Qing would have such a large following.

Xia Ning kept saying "Welcome" while accepting orders, but she couldn't keep up with the speed of her operations.

The orders were piled up, and she didn't have enough hands to handle them all; she even knocked over the shaker.

"Sis! Come help me!"

Xia Ning turned her head and shouted at Xia Qing.

One or two would be fine, but now that there are more people, she can't handle it.

Xia Qing stepped forward and began making the product as well.

One cup sold out, another one ordered.

When the two of them worked together, the speed increased significantly.

But the crowd kept growing, and the line stretched from the front of the bar all the way to the door.

People were still coming in through the door.

Lu Yang came over and lent a hand.

With three people operating simultaneously, the assembly line was set up.

The rhythm has finally stabilized.

"Boss! We're out of tea leaves for 'Bo Ya's Broken Strings'!"

Xia Ning panicked.

Lu Yang looked back and saw that the tea barrel was empty.

"Use Oolong first."

"But the customer ordered Tieguanyin tea..."

"Tell the customers that Tieguanyin is sold out. If they mind, they can choose another type. If they don't mind, the taste difference is not significant."

Xia Ning nodded quickly and turned to explain to the customers in line.

Surprisingly, no one left.

Not only did they not leave, but some even said, "Sold out? Then we definitely have to try it! The more it sells out, the better it must taste!"

Xia Ning: "6".

This is marketing?!

Lu Yang was also surprised.

This might be the hunger effect...

He didn't intentionally create it, but the effect came out on its own.

Moreover, as queues formed outside the store, a herd mentality emerged.

In this way, word-of-mouth spread spontaneously within the store.

Customers chat with each other, take photos and post them on WeChat Moments, which attracts new customers, who then take photos and post them on WeChat Moments as well.

This directly forms a perfect closed loop!

They've had their fill of milk tea from other shops, but a milk tea shop like Lu Yang's, with its unique and innovative approach, immediately piqued their curiosity.

……

Two o'clock in the afternoon.

The last group of peak-hour guests finally left.

Xia Ning leaned against the bar, her arms outstretched, her whole body slumped, her eyes clear.

"Boss... my hand is ruined, no, I'm almost ruined."

She wasn't exaggerating. From the start of business, except for one trip to the restroom, she spent the entire time making drinks. In just over three hours, she shook over a hundred cups.

My hands are really sore.

and……

I bet I'll be dreaming about shaking milk tea tonight.

Xia Qing's expression didn't change much, but Lu Yang noticed that she was fidgeting with her fingers, bending them one by one.

It must be said that people who have trained have really good stamina.

Lu Yang tallied today's cup output.

More than a hundred cups.

It's not that they can only sell a little over a hundred cups, but rather that they've run out of all the ingredients they prepared.

In addition, Xia Ning and Xia Qing are both newcomers and are not familiar with the operating procedures.

This is already a very good result for the first day of trial operation.

After pausing for a moment, Xia Ning began to review her achievements for the day.

"Boss, one hundred and thirty-seven cups!"

Her tone carried a hint of pride, even more so than when she got a perfect score in school.

"Hmm, not bad, keep up the good work."

Lu Yang responded.

To be honest, the number did exceed expectations, but he wasn't planning to be too happy too soon.

A large portion of today's traffic comes from the popularity of that forum post, which is essentially a one-off event. Once the novelty wears off, the only ones who will stay are repeat customers.

At that point, the competition will come down to the product itself.

But this is all for later.

After all, he was very confident in the product's capabilities.

"Don't worry, boss, I will definitely continue to work hard!" With Lu Yang's approval, Xia Ning raised her little fist, feeling even more motivated.

Just as the three of them were about to wrap things up.

Suddenly, a murmur of discussion arose outside the door.

It wasn't just one person's voice, but several.

Moreover, the voice sounded somewhat familiar.

"This is it? The navigation says it's on this street."

"Hey, look at this place, isn't it that newly opened bubble tea shop in the post?"

"First Encounter Tea House? That's right! This is it!"

The voice just fell.

Lu Yang looked up at the doorway.

Several figures were walking straight into the store.

Walking in front was Yuan Xiangrong, followed closely by several classmates.

One of them is Wang Ziying.

She wore a familiar floral dress, her hair was styled in an updo, and she looked very innocent and pure.

"Ziying, let me tell you, this milk tea shop just opened today, and I heard it's really popular."

"Especially the kinds of milk tea they have..."

Yuan Xiangrong spoke to Wang Ziying.

But he was speaking when he suddenly bumped into a figure, causing him to swallow his words.

Lu Yang?

What is he doing here?

At this moment, Lu Yang was standing inside the bar, his apron still on, still working.

The two locked eyes and remained silent for a moment.

Yuan Xiangrong spoke first: "Lu Yang?"

He glanced around, then looked at the apron Lu Yang was wearing, a subtle expression on his face: "What are you doing here?"

At the same time, several classmates following behind Yuan Xiangrong also noticed him.

"Hey, isn't that Lu Yang?"

"What's he doing here? Is he working?"

"Wait, didn't he get a job as an intern at the Snowfield Group? Why is he working part-time now?"

A murmur arose from the surroundings.

It's worth noting that the news of Lu Yang joining the Xueyu Group spread throughout the school.

How come you're wearing an apron and working at a bubble tea shop now?

It's hard not to overthink this.

Thinking about this...

Yuan Xiangrong instantly became smug.

He smirked and said, "Lu Yang, I told you, you got into Snowfield Company by sheer luck!"
