In the evening, as the sun set, Yi Feng finished packing the last graphics card component and attached an apology letter before handing it over to an employee to deliver to the customer.
âWang Tie, this is the last one, right?â Yi Feng turned to Wang Tie and asked.
âYes, Brother Feng, itâs the last one. Weâve contacted and confirmed with all the customers on the list,â Wang Tie responded earnestly.
Yi Feng breathed a sigh of relief, having minimized the impact of the situation.
Had they not addressed it proactively, dealing with customers after their components failed would have been much more challenging.
âAlright, everyone has worked hard today,â Yi Feng said to the employees with a smile.
His smile immediately lightened the atmosphere in the store.
âBoss, we really owe you one today! If it werenât for you, we wouldnât know what to do!â Zhuo Qianqian admired.
âWhen facing a problem, the first step is to calm down. Donât panic, donât get nervous. If you canât solve it on your own, you can contact a colleague or report it to me. Thereâs always a solution. After all, the team, the company, is your backing!â Yi Feng said with a smile.
âYes! I understand!â Zhuo Qianqian nodded vigorously.
âBy the way, Qingqing, have all the components that needed to be mailed out today been sent to the post office?â Yi Feng turned to Zhuo Qingqing and asked.
âBoss, theyâve all been sent out. A total of 34 components, shipped according to the orders on the website,â Zhuo Qingqing replied.
â34? Not bad, it seems our online sales are picking up,â Yi Feng said, pleased.
Although this number was insignificant compared to the thousands or tens of thousands of pieces they would move in the future, it was quite an achievement in todayâs internet resource-scarce world.
These were customers converted from marketing activities, and once the 361 Butler server expansion was complete and user growth accelerated, it would undoubtedly further drive online sales!
Yi Feng checked the time, almost time for Gu Muxi to get off work.
âWang Tie, Iâll be leaving first. Wrap things up and make sure the place is clean before you leave,â Yi Feng told Wang Tie.
âSure, Brother Feng, take care,â Wang Tie replied.
Yi Feng returned to his company, mounted his bicycle, and headed to pick up Gu Muxi.
â¦
Gu Muxi stood at the companyâs entrance, watching her colleagues leave one by one, craning her neck to look for Yi Feng in the departing crowd.
âWhatâs taking Stinky Feng so long? How come he hasnât arrived yet?â she muttered to herself.
âMuxi, let me drive you home?â Ding Bo jingled his car keys, showing off that he owned a car.
Having a car was already a sign of a well-off family; a car was a symbol of wealth.
âNo need, Senior Ding, Iâm waiting for my boyfriend. Heâll be here to pick me up soon,â Gu Muxi declined directly.
âOh, okay then,â Ding Bo pulled a face, hating the thought of Yi Fengâs smug face.
He owed me over two thousand yuan for breakfast!
Iâll remember it for a lifetime!
âMy dear, Iâm here!â Suddenly, Yi Fengâs voice could be heard from afar.
Hearing the sound, Gu Muxi turned and saw Yi Feng pedaling hard on his bicycle, quickly approaching her.
âStinky⦠dear, youâve arrived! You had to come to pick me up after a whole day of work, thank you~â Gu Muxi almost let âStinky Fengâ slip out but quickly pretended to be coquettish.
âHehe, got held up a bit with some stuff, did you wait long? Letâs go home,â Yi Feng chuckled, enjoying Gu Muxi calling him dear.
âAh, Mr. Ding is also here,â Yi Feng turned to see Ding Bo.
Ding Bo glanced at Yi Fengâs bicycle, feeling a surge of superiority.
Iâm driving on four wheels, how can you compare with your two wheels?
âYeah, I was just about to get my car,â Ding Bo held his head high, flaunting his car keys to Yi Feng.
âWow, Mr. Ding has a sedan, you must be wealthy!â
âAh, itâs a Santana, right? I just saw a Santana in the parking lot with two scratches on its body. Was that Mr. Dingâs car?â Yi Feng asked with a smile.
âWhat?! Someone scratched my car?!â Ding Boâs face changed dramatically, and he hurriedly ran out.
Watching Ding Bo run off, Gu Muxi asked in surprise, âWas his car really scratched?â
âLittle fool, hehe, I was just teasing him!â
âLetâs go!â Yi Feng grinned.
Gu Muxi covered her mouth and laughed, âHaha! You should have seen how his face changed! That was hilarious!â
âYi Feng, youâre something else!â
Gu Muxi sat on the rear seat of the bicycle, wrapping one arm around Yi Fengâs waist.
âAlright, little Feng, letâs go.â
âOkay, my lady, hold on tight. Iâm going to speed up,â Yi Feng pedaled hard, and the bicycle shot forward.
Gu Muxi tightened her grip on him.
They hadnât gone far when Yi Feng suddenly braked, causing Gu Muxi to bump into his back.
âStinky Feng, what are you doing?!â Gu Muxi exclaimed.
âThere are a lot of people on the road, just making sure youâre holding on tight,â Yi Feng said with a mischievous smile.
Gu Muxi moved closer, her arms wrapping tighter around his waist, but the sudden closeness made her cheeks turn red.
Stinky Fengâs back is quite broad, huh!
âSit tight, letâs go home,â Yi Feng said with a smile.
On the way, Yi Feng asked, âGu Muxi, how was my acting today? Could I compete with a movie star?â
âStop it, your acting skills are so bad, not even a crowd actor would want you,â Gu Muxi rolled her eyes in disdain.
âHey, Gu Muxi, Iâve been your boyfriend for a day, and youâre still scolding me? Canât you show some appreciation?â
âHave you ever spared me before? You scold me every now and then!â
âReally? I didnât, did I? Iâll sue you for defamation, youâre defaming me!â
âHmph~ I remember it all in my heart!â
âDonât, or else Iâll let you scold me every now and then, no, whenever you want!â
âHuh? Stinky Feng, why do you sound so weird? By the way, where did you learn the meaning of âscoldâ you taught me?â
âOnline, havenât you seen internet slang while surfing?â
âIâve only seen terms like âbamboo leafâ, ârookieâ, âshrimpâ, 9494, and so on.â
Hearing these ancient internet terms, Yi Feng chuckled inwardly, knowing that as the internet becomes more widespread, internet culture will become more prevalent.
âBy the way, Gu Muxi, if you find Ding Bo annoying, why not just give him a suplex? I guarantee he wonât bother you anymore.â
âYou think I donât want to? If it werenât for considering my mom, I would have given him a suplex and a death lock!â
âSo thatâs how it is. No worries, I can still be your shield, continue to be your one-day boyfriend, but⦠youâll have to renew your subscription!â
âRenew? What renewal?â
âEven membership services require renewal, you have to renew monthly.â
âStinky Feng, you still want to negotiate terms with me? Believe it or not, Iâll give you a special training next time?â
âCough cough, no need for special training, forget it. Iâll give you a special membership, permanently free, but you have to answer a membership question, to check if your IQ is qualified to become a permanent member.â
âWhatâs the question?â
âIf your dad calls my dad âOld Yiâ, calls the downstairs Mr. Wang âOld Wangâ, and the gatekeeper Mr. Wu âOld Wuâ, then what does he call the barber Mr. Gong?â
Gu Muxi gave him a look, âOld Gong, of course!â
âAh, wife!â
Gu Muxi: â???â
