Seemingly still not enough, she excitedly pulled his arm and led him to the side.

This location is on the left-hand side of the entrance, and it cannot be seen directly upon entering. There is also a large wall in this location without windows.

"Now that the tables are put together, there is more space."

Su Mengyao gently patted the spot next to her feet a few times: "This is a good place to put a sofa."

Then, with a beaming smile, he pointed to the empty wall and said, "Buy a big-screen TV here."

"Ahem, that's going too far." Mo Xiangwen quickly interrupted her reverie, half-laughing and half-crying: "This is, after all, a startup base; the teachers will come to inspect..."

Su Mengyao's face immediately fell, her lips pursed, and she remained silent, a stark contrast to her earlier exuberance.

Fortunately, Mo Xiangwen seemed to be somewhat rational.

Su Mengli, who was almost petrified, finally breathed a sigh of relief.

While gaming desks and chairs are a bit excessive, they are still within an explainable range, as they are intended to make working less physically demanding for everyone.

Large-screen LCD TVs are beyond ridiculous; they're downright outrageous.

Su Mengli was about to praise him when she saw him pat his silly little sister on the shoulder.

“I think we should also put a long sofa against the wall, and a coffee table in the middle,” Mo Xiangwen said with a smile. “That way, it will look like a place for receiving guests.”

Su Mengyao nodded thoughtfully.

"As for LCD monitors, they're not suitable."

Su Mengli sensed something was wrong when she heard his tone.

"However, a projection screen and a projector are fine, we can explain it as facilitating the communication of ideas and the presentation of PPTs."

Mo Xiangwen smiled at them and said, "What do you think?"

PS: I ran an AI test on Su Mengli and Su Mengyao. Take a look for now. If you haven't seen it yet, please refresh the page. But I still feel that their temperaments don't quite match.

Chapter 82 Shopping Trip

If this is discovered by Teacher Li and the school leaders during the inspection, there's a 99% chance it will be a red temperature reading, right?

Su Mengli opened her cherry-like lips slightly, just about to dissuade them, when she saw the smug smiles on their faces.

My heart softened, and I could only sigh softly to myself.

Oh well, it's not so bad.

As long as they aren't caught red-handed, they should have a chance to explain.

"Yes, a projector would also make it more convenient to watch movies together."

As soon as she finished speaking, Su Mengyao suddenly remembered the two computer towers in her house and tugged at his arm again.

Under his questioning gaze, Su Mengyao hesitated for a moment before asking, "But I want to bring the console over. Won't it be a little inconvenient to use the projector while playing the console?"

“Console games are usually played by two people,” Su Mengli suddenly said. “We can buy a larger monitor, or bring the monitor you use for console games at home.”

Mo Xiangwen nodded in agreement: "Yes, even if the monitor is placed openly next to the computer desk, as long as it is not connected to the computer, the teacher will not be able to tell what it is used for."

"Let's discuss it briefly and make a shopping list," Su Mengli said with a smile. "Next time, we'll go buy everything together."

"No need," Mo Xiangwen shook his head.

Su Mengyao and Su Mengli looked at him with suspicion, wondering what he was up to.

Do you have classes this afternoon?

"No, not at all." Su Mengli shook her head.

Su Mengli and Su Mengyao are in the same major and class. Since Su Mengli doesn't have classes, naturally Su Mengyao doesn't either.

"The sooner the better, let's go to the mall now."

"Brooms and mops can be bought at school, and I can buy the projector and computer online together."

Mo Xiangwen smiled and said, "In other words, all we really need to do is go to the furniture store and buy the tables and chairs."

At this point, he suddenly realized that the kind of table and chairs they wanted might not even be available in furniture stores.

In furniture stores, most of the furniture is relatively standardized.

A typical office desk makes good use of space, but when you sit down, there's very little room for your legs to move.

If he needs to store documents, he'd rather buy an extra box.

Moreover, he was even less certain whether adjustable sofas were available.

The backrest can be adjusted to a certain angle, and whether it has a footrest and a small table are all issues to consider.

That's strange, he didn't seem to have considered having an office at all in the first place.

Why are they even trying to arrange a sofa now?

Mo Xiangwen pondered for a moment, then slowly said, "Speaking of which, it seems that those gaming desks and chairs are not available in regular furniture stores."

"I'll just buy it online along with other things."

“No, there are.” Su Mengli suddenly said with great certainty, “I know which shopping mall has them.”

Su Mengyao, who was standing to the side, nodded repeatedly: "Sister is right."

Mo Xiangwen was taken aback, then nodded: "Really? But since you say you have it, let's go take a look."

"No need, sister, just make a call..."

Before Su Mengyao could finish speaking, Su Mengli, who was standing next to her, suddenly reached out and covered her mouth, pulling her in front of her.

"Does Mengli know the store's phone number?"

Su Mengli remained silent, glanced down at her silly younger sister, gave her a wink, and then secretly pinched her fair cheek.

The two-pronged approach was quite effective. Although Su Mengyao hadn't figured out exactly what her sister was planning, she understood the message of not being allowed to speak carelessly.

Su Mengyao winked at her sister and then nodded obediently.

Only after receiving her silly younger sister's assurance did Su Mengli feel relieved enough to let go of her.

"I know that, but I think it's better to go to the store and take a look."

Su Mengli's expression remained unchanged, as if nothing had happened, and she still had a smiling face.

"Otherwise, if you're not satisfied with the tables and chairs they deliver, returning them will be a hassle."

Su Mengyao glanced at her sister and secretly muttered a few complaints to herself.

This is true.

After all, the table and sofa are quite heavy, so there's really no need to move them around.

“Okay, let’s go take a look.” Mo Xiangwen pondered for a moment, then slowly nodded and said, “Let’s see if the price is right. If it is, I’ll feel more at ease buying it in the store.”

“Yes, and if it’s suitable, we can have them delivered today.” Su Mengli nodded and chuckled, “In this respect, it’s more convenient than online shopping.”

After locking the door, the three of them went to the office of the startup incubator.

However, Professor Li was no longer in the office; only Senior Wang Bin and the unnamed Senior Sister remained.

It was probably close to the end of the workday, and Wang Bin was busy playing games. He just looked up and greeted her before making way for the female student to help him with the procedures.

"Junior, are you sure?" Perhaps because she was in charge of the work, the senior's attitude was much better than last time. She asked with a smile, "Once this form is submitted, it will be difficult to make changes."

"Ah."

"Okay." The senior nodded slightly, then took out another form from the drawer and placed it on the side of the desk closest to him.

"If you need to apply for tables and chairs, you can fill out another application form."

"Then there's no need," Mo Xiangwen waved his hand, refusing. "But I'd like to ask, are there any pre-installed network cable ports in these rooms?"

The senior student paused slightly, but did not answer his question.

Senior Wang Bin, despite his busy schedule, still managed to reply: "There is no network cable interface. The other seniors had to find someone to install it for them."

"If you're busy, I have the installer's contact information. I'll call him later to arrange for him to install it."

"Okay, then I'll thank you in advance, senior."

"It's nothing," Wang Bin replied without looking up.

"Well then, seniors, we'll be going now."

"Yes, you can come to my office anytime if you have any questions."

......

When the three of them arrived at the school gate on the campus sightseeing bus, they had just stepped off the bus when Mo Xiangwen was thinking about hailing a ride-hailing car. Just then, he saw several female students getting out of a taxi outside the school gate.

There is a lot of pedestrian traffic at the school gate, so it is generally not possible to park for long. The taxi slowly started moving.

Mo Xiangwen hurriedly ran and waved. After jogging a few steps, the taxi driver seemed to finally spot him in the rearview mirror and stopped the car in a less crowded spot ahead.

Seeing the taxi stop, he decided to stay where he was and wait for Su Mengli and the others to arrive before walking over together.

After all three people had boarded the car, the driver glanced at Mo Xiangwen, who was sitting in the passenger seat, and asked, "Young man, where to?"

Mo Xiangwen glanced back at Su Mengli, but he didn't know where the shop Su Mengli was talking about was.

"Mengli, where are we going?"

Lanxi Shopping Plaza.

P.S.: I have an upset stomach, so one chapter will be a little late.

Chapter 83 An Unexpected Embrace

Mo Xiangwen really hadn't expected that the shopping mall Su Mengli mentioned was so far from the school.

Even though the road conditions were good the whole way, it still took the experienced driver more than half an hour to reach the destination.

There's not much to say about the shopping mall.

Just like its name suggests, this shopping mall covers an area comparable in size to a plaza.

From any angle, he couldn't see any difference between it and other large shopping malls.

For some reason, Su Mengli and the others knew that the furniture they wanted to buy was here.

Mo Xiangwen's doubts were quickly answered. Su Mengli and Su Mengyao seemed to know the place well, as if they had been there many times before. They easily turned a few corners and arrived at a shop.

The store's overall decor is predominantly dark-toned, accented with numerous colorful light strips and lights. If it were any darker, it might have a distinctly e-sports hotel atmosphere.

However, it's a store, and ultimately it's meant to sell goods.

Making it so dark creates a great atmosphere, but how are guests supposed to look at the furniture?

The various gaming desks and chairs displayed in the store proved that Su Mengli's words were true; she did indeed know where to find what they wanted.

The waitress came over as soon as she saw them come in.

Just when he thought the young lady was going to act as their sales assistant, she walked straight to Su Mengli, said a few words to her, bowed slightly, and hurriedly left.

"Let's go sit on the sofa first," Su Mengyao said with a light laugh. "Of course, you can watch it by yourself for a while if you want."

"Anyway, I think it's the same whether there's a sales assistant or not."

"Mengyao, you can't say that." Su Mengli shook her head, stopping her from continuing.

Su Mengyao glanced around again, and after confirming that no one else was around, she muttered under her breath, "Anyway, I was just telling you guys something."

Su Mengli shook her head and said softly, "You can say whatever you want when we get back, but don't say things like that in the shop."

Seeing that Su Mengli's attitude was quite firm, Su Mengyao stopped dwelling on the topic.

Su Mengyao's eyes darted around, and she smiled again: "Then Xiang Wen and I will go take a look at the chairs first?"

"Okay, go ahead, I'll wait here."

Seeing how familiar they were with the place, Mo Xiangwen decided to let them make the arrangements.

However, he still glanced at Su Mengli, confirming with his eyes, and only after receiving her affirmative nod did he feel relieved enough to follow Su Mengyao into the chairs.

Following Su Mengyao to the experience area, he found that most of the chairs there were gaming chairs, and he couldn't find the sofa chair he wanted.
