Chapter 223: Do you remember that classic line?
Su Ruochu felt like her brain was crashing a bit.
For a moment, she didn't react.
Staring at Chen Fan in confusion, "You... you said this internet cafe is yours?"
Chen Fan smiled and nodded, "Yes."
"But... where did you get enough money to open a shop?"
Chen Fan: "Remember that website I sold before? I used the money from that to open this internet cafe."
Su Ruochu was even more confused.
She had only known that Chen Fan's website had sold for a lot of money, but she had never imagined a website could sell for enough to open a business like this.
"Come with me!"
Reaching out his hand, he pulled the still dazed Su Ruochu upstairs quickly.
Standing in the hallway, looking down at the crowded lobby below.
"How's that? Business is going pretty well, right?"
Su Ruochu finally reacted, staring at Chen Fan and asking.
"This shop really is yours?"
Before Chen Fan could open his mouth, a staff member passed by.
"Hello, boss."
Okay, Su Ruochu believed it now.
Because she didn't think Chen Fan would spend money hiring people to play this kind of joke on her.
With Chen Fan's introduction, she took a simple tour of the internet cafe.
As they were leaving, Su Ruochu still felt it was rather dreamlike.
"My roommates are even members here. Last time someone complained that the membership here is particularly expensive."
Chen Fan laughed, "You go tell them, next time they come here and give your name, I'll give them all free memberships."
Su Ruochu rolled her charming eyes, walked a couple steps ahead, then turned to look at Chen Fan.
"You never told me about this before, why did you suddenly want to tell me today?"
Chen Fan smiled, "I didn't say it before because I wasn't confident it would be successful."
"The reason I'm telling you now is because I feel I have the confidence to say this in front of you. I have the ability to be responsible for you, to be responsible for our future together."
Su Ruochu's face turned red as she listened, turning away and muttering.
"What nonsense."
"Then... then why did you have to choose today to say it?"
The corner of Chen Fan's mouth curled up slightly, "Because..."
"Today is a special day."
Su Ruochu's heart skipped a beat.
Chen Fan kept teasing by dragging out his words.
"Today is the day my second aunt's neighbor's younger uncle's son just had his first month birthday."
Su Ruochu puffed out her cheeks angrily.
But Chen Fan just laughed: "Of course, there's also a more important reason."
"Today is the birthday of the girl I like."
"So, no matter what, I had to make an effort and show up in front of her."
Chen Fan walked up to the confused Su Ruochu.
"Happy birthday."
He reached out and gently ruffled Su Ruochu's hair.
"Silly girl, you didn't really think I forgot, did you?"
Su Ruochu's eyes turned red, almost crying from feeling wronged.
She really thought Chen Fan had forgotten.
It made her anxious and uneasy these past two days, her mood a mess, unable to even study properly.
Su Ruochu suddenly raised her hand and punched Chen Fan's shoulder.
"You're so bad."
"You clearly knew, why did you have to pretend to forget my birthday, happy to see me so anxious?"
"I hate you..."
Chen Fan reached out and grabbed her swinging fist, smiling as he spoke: "I pretended to forget your birthday earlier just to prepare a surprise for you."
Su Ruochu pouted, "Surprise? More like a fright."
Chen Fan grabbed Su Ruochu's wrist, gently pulling her into his embrace.
"Before, when we were dating, no matter how many vows or grandiose words I said, I felt I had no foundation."
"Because I didn't have the ability to make a girl happy."
"Now, I feel I have a little bit of that foundation."
"Because I can confidently say, my business, my savings, I earned it all myself."
"Do you remember that classic line from The King of Comedy?"
Chen Fan imitated Stephen Chow's tone as he shouted loudly at Su Ruochu.
"Su Ruochu, I'll support you!"
This shout attracted the curious gaze of many passersby.
Su Ruochu's face turned bright red as she angrily raised her hand and punched Chen Fan again.
"Why are you doing this, isn't it embarrassing? Let's go quickly."
"You haven't said if you agree or not yet?"
"I don't agree, I never said I'd marry you."
"You have to marry me. We've made vows before."
Chen Fan raised his hand, shaking the red string on it.
"The heavens are witness, you're destined to be of the Liu-Su family in this life."
Saying that, he pulled Su Ruochu tightly into his embrace without warning.
Being so intimate out on the street, Su Ruochu felt a bit uncomfortable, her face red as she lightly patted Chen Fan.
"Let me go quickly."
"Not until you agree with me first."
"You're coercing me..."
"Will you agree or not, if not I might force a kiss on you..."
"You..." Su Ruochu's face flushed red with shyness as she spoke: "I agree with you."
Chen Fan immediately let go and stepped back.
"That's better. Wife, get on the bike."
Su Ruochu looked at Chen Fan with a shy expression.
"What else are we doing? Where are we going now?"
"Of course, to see the surprise I prepared for your birthday."
"For your birthday, I prepared several surprises."
"You don't need to do anything today, just listen to me and follow me."
Su Ruochu let out a shy humph, expressing displeasure.
"Humph, so domineering."
But as she said that, after getting on the bike she happily wrapped her arms around Chen Fan's waist, leaning against his back, the corners of her mouth curled up slightly.
The university district.
Chen Fan pointed at the First Encounter internet cafe in front of them.
"Look at the name of this internet cafe, how about it?"
Su Ruochu curiously peeked inside.
"Why are we at an internet cafe again?"
"This name... it doesn't sound like an internet cafe name at all, I don't know what the owner was thinking, they must be some artsy youth..."
Chen Fan gave a wry smile, "It's because the name was inspired by yours."
"Mine?"
Su Ruochu looked surprised.
Chen Fan smiled: "If life is only like the First Encounter. First Encounter internet cafe."
Su Ruochu's eyes went wider and wider, staring at Chen Fan in disbelief.
"You mean..."
"That's right. This internet cafe is also mine."
Chen Fan smiled and took Su Ruochu's hand, not waiting for her questions as he led her into the lobby.
As soon as they entered, Su Ruochu was stunned.
Because this internet cafe had an even larger area than Starry Sky, and was more impressive.
But of course, the bigger surprise was still to come.
"Boss..."
"Hello boss."
As a few staff members greeted him enthusiastically, Su Ruochu suddenly stared open-mouthed at a familiar figure quickly coming down from the second floor office.
"Hong… brother Honghai?"
Zhou Honghai smiled and nodded.
"Ruochu, long time no see."
Su Ruochu was completely dazed.
"Brother Honghai, you... what are you doing here?"
Zhou Honghai smiled, "I work here."
"I'm currently the manager of this internet cafe."
Zhou Honghai glanced at Chen Fan, smiling as he explained to Su Ruochu.
"I'm currently working for Chen Fan, so I'll have to call you Madam Boss from now on."
That word "Madam Boss" instantly made Su Ruochu's face turn red with shyness, feeling a bit flustered.
"I..."
The situations and surprises she had encountered today were just too much, going from great sorrow to great joy, Su Ruochu's mood was simply like a roller coaster ride.
Chen Fan held Su Ruochu's little hand and smiled as he explained to Zhou Honghai.
"Brother Honghai, you keep working, I'm just bringing her to look around casually."
"Got it."
Zhou Honghai smiled and nodded at Su Ruochu.
"Next time you get a chance, come find me, I'll treat you to a meal."
Watching Zhou Honghai leave, Su Ruochu immediately pulled on Chen Fan impatiently.
"Tell me the truth, how many more secrets do you have that I don't know about?"
"Well..."
Chen Fan immediately put on a serious thinking expression.
Su Ruochu: "..."
"Don't tell me there's really something you're still hiding from me?"
