Chen Ming ruthlessly exposed the true colors of his two uncles.

Chen Yitian's lips trembled as if he wanted to say something, but in the end, he nodded under Chen Ming's insistence: "Okay, I'll listen to you, I won't lend it!"

Chen Ming picked up the letter paper and wrote a strongly worded reply in one stroke.

In the letter, he not only refused his two uncles' requests for money, but also bluntly listed their past acts of ingratitude.

Finally, he warned them that if they dared to harass him again, they shouldn't blame him for being impolite!

After finishing the letter, Chen Ming carefully sealed it in an envelope.

"Dad, don't worry, I'll handle this."

Looking into Chen Ming's eyes, Chen Yitian felt a surge of relief.

He patted Chen Ming on the shoulder and said earnestly, "Xiao Ming, you've grown up, and Dad is getting old. From now on, this family will depend on you."

Chen Ming smiled and said, "Dad, what are you saying? You're still young!"

In the afternoon, a technician from the telecommunications company came to install the telephone.

"Master, thank you for your trouble." Chen Ming handed his master a bottle of water.

"Of course, of course," the technician said with a smile, taking the water and quickly starting to install the telephone.

Chen Yitian stood aside, watching his master's busy figure, a gratified smile on his face.

With a telephone, it will be much easier to contact business partners; there will be no need to go to the post office to make long-distance calls anymore.

After the phone was installed, the technician dialed 114 to test it. After confirming that everything was normal, he packed up his tools and prepared to leave.

"Master, how much?" Chen Ming asked.

"Installation fee is 50, and initial installation fee is 100," the installer replied.

Chen Ming paid the driver and saw him off.

"This is much more convenient," Chen Yitian said with a sigh, looking at the newly installed telephone.

Chen Ming nodded: "Yes, it will be much easier to contact each other in the future."

After saying that, he took out a neatly folded white handkerchief from his pocket.

This was handed to him by Wang Qingyue in the auditorium that day; it had her contact information on it.

Chen Ming then took out the pager from his pocket and stroked its brand-new body.

This was from the 800s, a symbol of status and prestige. Carrying it on the street would guarantee you a 100% head-turning rate.

"Hello, is this Qingyue? This is Chen Ming." After dialing Wang Qingyue's phone number, Chen Ming tried his best to keep his tone calm.

But his barely suppressed excitement still showed through his words.

"Chen Ming, this is Qingyue." Wang Qingyue's voice was sweet.

"Qingyue." Chen Ming's voice trembled slightly. "I...I've given you my pager and home phone number so it will be much easier for us to contact each other in the future."

There was a few seconds of silence on the other end of the phone, then Wang Qingyue's soft laughter came through: "Why did you suddenly decide to buy a pager?"

"It's easier to contact you this way." Chen Ming's ears were burning.

"In the future... if anything happens, you can contact me anytime."

"Mmm," Wang Qingyue responded softly, her tone carrying a hint of barely perceptible shyness.

"By the way, Qingyue, when you have some free time, would you like to check out my new business?"

Chen Ming tried extending an invitation, his heart racing involuntarily.

"A new business?" Wang Qingyue on the other end of the phone was clearly surprised.

"Yes, we just opened recently, and business is pretty good. We have some brand-new computers; I'm sure you'll like them."

Chen Ming tried his best to sound relaxed and casual, but he was extremely nervous inside.

Wang Qingyue was silent for a moment, then said softly, "Okay, when?"

Chen Ming was immediately overjoyed. "How about this weekend? I'll come pick you up then."

"Okay, it's settled then," Wang Qingyue agreed softly.

After hanging up the phone, Chen Ming's face was beaming with an irrepressible smile.

He gripped the phone tightly, determined to perform well this time.

……

On the weekend, Chen Ming rode his brand-new Forever bicycle and arrived at Wang Qingyue's current residence on time.

He wore a new shirt today, and his hair was neatly combed, making him look exceptionally energetic.

Wang Qingyue looked beautiful and charming in a floral dress.

Upon seeing Chen Ming, a sweet smile appeared on her face.

"Let's go," Chen Ming said with a hint of nervousness, gently patting the back of the bicycle seat.

Wang Qingyue gracefully sat in the back seat and gently supported Chen Ming's waist.

A gentle breeze carried a faint fragrance, and Chen Ming felt his heart beat even faster.

The two chatted casually as they rode along.

Wang Qingyue was full of curiosity about Chen Ming's "new business" and kept asking for details.

Chen Ming only vaguely said it was related to computers, deliberately keeping her in suspense and wanting to surprise her.

Finally, the bicycle stopped in front of a slightly dilapidated two-story building.

A newly painted sign stands out: "Mingyuan Internet Cafe".

Looking at the scene before her, Wang Qingyue's smile gradually faded.

Her imagined "new business" should at least be as spacious, bright, and luxuriously decorated as the department store in town.

But the "internet cafe" in front of us was far from what we had imagined.

"This is your... new business?" Wang Qingyue's voice carried a hint of barely concealed disappointment.

Chen Ming noticed the change in Wang Qingyue's tone and his heart skipped a beat.

He had originally thought Wang Qingyue would rave about his internet cafe, but he never expected to disappoint her so much.

"Yes, come in and take a look. It's a hidden gem inside."

Chen Ming forced a smile and pushed open the door of the internet cafe.

A whiff of air mixed with the smell of instant noodles and cigarette smoke hit her, causing Wang Qingyue to frown involuntarily.

The internet cafe was dimly lit, with dozens of computer screens emitting a faint glow, and a group of young people were intently staring at the screens.

His fingers flew across the keyboard, and he occasionally let out excited shouts.

"What...what is this?" Wang Qingyue looked at everything in front of her, feeling somewhat bewildered.

"This is a computer, the most advanced technological product available now," Chen Ming explained, pointing to one of the computers.

"It can be used for playing games or for learning; it's a very powerful tool."

Wang Qingyue knew nothing about computers; she just thought the machines looked complicated, and the environment of the internet cafe made her feel very uncomfortable.

She looked around and noticed that some tables were piled with empty instant noodle boxes and cigarette butts, which made her feel that the place was a bit dirty and messy.

"You work here...?" Wang Qingyue's voice was filled with disbelief.

Chen Ming nodded, a slightly embarrassed smile on his face.

He originally thought Wang Qingyue would appreciate his entrepreneurial spirit, but he didn't expect her to be so disgusted with his internet cafe.

"The environment here... isn't very good," Wang Qingyue said tactfully.

Chen Ming felt a pang of disappointment.

"I know that this place is mostly frequented by boys, so it's a bit messy."

Chen Ming scratched his head somewhat awkwardly.

"But I put a lot of thought into the renovation! Look, the graffiti on the wall was specially painted by someone I hired; it's very high-tech, isn't it?"
