When I Saw The Returns, I Invested In My Future Wife First

163 The Unconfident Zhou Teng Mustered His Courage!

In the milk tea shop, Ai Tingya was sitting in a corner with her laptop in her arms, concentrating on the company’s matters.

Even though Luo Feng had rented an office building as an office location, Ai Tingya rarely went there. Instead, she stayed in the milk tea shop most of the time. She could not help greet customers and make milk tea like before because of something.

Until now, her heart was still on the milk tea shop. She felt that the company could only be considered a logistics department and was mainly in charge of the company’s normal operations. Even though the shop was very noisy, Ai Tingya felt at ease listening to the sounds from it.

Especially since Xiao Fei and the rest were also there. She could chat with familiar people when she was tired. Ai Tingya liked this kind of relaxation mode very much.

Now, as the lady boss of the milk tea chain, she was more like a scenery in the shop. When some regular customers saw Ai Tingya, they would take the initiative to greet her and chat with her. They would talk about the taste of the latest product and give some feedback. Everyone liked serious pretty girls after all.

Gradually, everyone knew that the seats in the corner were reserved for the lady boss.

Ai Tingya carefully browsed through last month’s report and the changes in the company’s personnel. She did not notice that a pair of eyes had been staring at her for a long time.

The boy who peeped at Ai Tingya was called Zhou Teng, a first-year student from the university next door.

He was wearing the latest design of Gucci this winter. Anyone who knew a little about branded goods could tell at a glance that Zhou Teng’s clothes added up to 20,000 yuan, not to mention the brand new Porsche car key hanging on his waist.

People dressed in branded clothes squeezed into the line of students to buy milk tea. It felt like they were carrying branded bags to the wet market.

Many people who passed by Zhou Teng couldn’t help but look at him. He also became the second scenery in the milk tea shop after Ai Tingya.

However, Zhou Teng shrugged his shoulders and shrunk his neck, feeling very uncomfortable with the gazes of the others.

The other two students beside him kept pushing him and saying, “Straighten your back! If you want to be confident, you have to pay attention to your posture first!”

“That’s right. Show off your new clothes and let everyone see its logo. Its value! Be more flamboyant and take a step forward.”

The two students were like parents who expected better from someone. They taught Zhou Teng how to be confident step by step.

Zhou Teng’s eyes were fixed on Ai Tingya and he didn’t pay much attention to the students who were posing for him. It was only when the two girls who walked past him covered their mouths and snickered that Zhou Teng’s ears turned red.

“Aiya, stop messing around. Line up properly!” Zhou Teng shook off the two of them helplessly.

A student insisted, “No, it wasn’t easy to bring you out, and it’s in a crowded place. It’s time to train your self-confidence!”

When Zhou Teng heard this, he was instantly unhappy. He covered his classmate’s mouth and said, “Don’t say such a thing!”

The two students looked at each other. Zhou Teng’s lack of confidence was really in all aspects. Even if others heard him say that he was not confident, he would become unconfident.

The classmate patted Zhou Teng’s shoulder and said earnestly, “We’re helping you. Good medicine is bitter, and honest words are hard to hear. The process of metamorphosis will definitely be a little painful, but it doesn’t matter. We’ll accompany you.”

Another student said, “That’s right. Aren’t you also troubled by this matter? Look, you’ve already bought all the clothes and new cars. From your appearance, you’re already a very bright and handsome young man. If you mold your inner self, it’ll be perfect!”

Zhou Teng pursed his lips and was speechless. He agreed with the two of them, but how could it be so easy to change?

Zhou Teng was born in the countryside but his family was being compensated by the government for development. The houses and land in his hometown had all been expropriated, and he had received more than 10 million yuan in demolition fees. In addition, his father was also a business minded person. In a few years, he had doubled the family’s money.

This was an era where households with tens of thousands of yuan was rare. Their families had tens of millions of yuan. It could be said that they were rich. They could live a more comfortable and leiure life than most people if they did nothing for the rest of their lives.

However, Zhou Teng’s parents had different thoughts.

When their house had just been demolished, Zhou Teng was still in his infancy. A huge sum of money had been spent on normal families. If used well, it would be a ladder to heaven. If not, it would be a sickle to hell.

Therefore, when Zhou Teng was growing up, the Zhou parents had always hidden the fact that their family was rich. They followed the education philosophy of “a filial son is born under a stick” and also suppressed Zhou Teng.

Because of the long period of denial, even though Zhou Teng’s grades had always been good and he was very obedient, he was very timid and not very confident.

It was not until he was admitted to a satisfactory university that his parents felt that he was sensible. Only then did they tell him about their family’s financial situation. After that, they even gave him a huge sum of 100,000 yuan, hoping that he could enjoy his university life.

Zhou Teng had been thrifty since he was young. The clothes he wore were old clothes that his relative’s brother could not wear. Now that he suddenly had money, he did not know how to spend it. He simply bought a full set of branded clothes and wore them, hoping that the clothes would help him increase his confidence.

Unfortunately, the effect was not good.

The two students were also here to help him. Every time he retreated, they would encourage him to move forward. It could be said that they were trying their best to persuade him.

“Hey, hey, you keep looking at that girl over there. If you like her, go hit on her. Exchange contact information with her and ask her out for dinner!” A classmate said, “An understanding girlfriend can help a man obtain great Achievement. I think she looks very gentle!”

“Ah… That’s not good.”

Zhou Teng did have a good impression of Ai Tingya. Their school was not close to the milk tea shop. He came here mainly to take a look at Ai Tingya.

Because he was not confident, he felt that he was not worthy of such a beautiful girl. He habitually avoided her and lowered his head to pretend to drink the milk tea seriously.

Another student couldn’t stand it anymore and snatched his milk tea. “Don’t be afraid of being rejected. Rather, it’s common to be rejected in life. You have to give it a try. Otherwise, we’ll drink until we vomit in the shop today.”

For someone like Zhou Teng, who was used to retreating, it was necessary to use some forceful methods.

Zhou Teng understood this logic. No matter what, he had to take the initiative to ask for their contact information. If he succeeded in getting it, everyone would be happy. If he didn’t get it, he wouldn’t lose anything.

He understood. He understood everything, but he still couldn’t live a good life!

The classmate shook off the car key at his waist and gave him a suggestion. “If you really can’t, slap the key in front of her! I don’t believe that any girl can resist the temptation of a luxury car!”

“This method is feasible! Even if she doesn’t want to date you, she might be willing to start with friends on account of your arrogance.”

Both of them understood that the result was not important. What was important was that Zhou Teng dared to express his feelings to the girl he liked.

“Is… is it really feasible…” Zhou Teng was still a little hesitant.

He stared fixedly at Ai Tingya’s beautiful face and elegant temperament. He gritted his teeth and stomped his feet as he walked forward. He was going all out!
