Chapter 168

After all, maid shops are the world of girls. They are as beautiful as flowers, elegant and refined, and no matter how many beautiful adjectives are used, it is not too much. They are full of refreshing fragrance, which makes people feel relaxed and happy at the first sniff, and their skin always seems to shine in the lights of the shop.

They always have a heart-warming smile on their faces.

Everyone who walks into the store will instantly feel the loneliness and neglect in their life.

However, Wei Zhen, who has no competitiveness compared to these girls, is unexpectedly quite popular.

Although she couldn't compare with the popular maids, as long as she had a group of regular customers, she would have a basis for survival in the store.

Working part-time, Wei Zhen could earn more than 1,000 yuan every weekend, and after deducting various expenses, he would get at least 4,000 yuan a month. He only had to work eight days a week to get this much money, which sounded so good that it made him dizzy.

If college students who don’t even have the ability to survive can achieve self-sufficiency, their lives will be unimaginably wonderful.

At the most leisurely and youthful age, you can use this money to travel around, buy your favorite clothes, toys, and peripherals, and you don’t have to be shy to ask your family for money to do anything. While feeling independent, you will naturally feel a sense of pride in your financial independence.

Wei Zhen looked at the face reflected in the mirror - he gradually became more beautiful. He curled his eyelashes, put on a little blush, and applied moist lip gloss on his lips. He then gathered his bangs and put on a golden wig. Almost in an instant, the boy disappeared completely, and was replaced by a gentle and petite 2D girl.

Manage your expression and add a bit of coolness to your temperament.

In an instant, even his most familiar friends could not recognize his identity.

"Cough-cough-"

He cleared his throat slightly, searching for the voice he had practiced earlier.

Being a maid is not easy, so he practiced false voice specially. Except for the low pitch, he sounds almost the same as a girl, and even sweeter.

Get ready.

He has completely gotten rid of his identity as a male college student.

It is difficult for ordinary people to imagine why a man is willing to wear women's clothes and dress up beautifully to please others. Wei Zhen has actually received a very normal education since he was a child. His friends and family have never discovered that he has this kind of fetish, and even he himself did not know it at first.

Wei Zhen's life trajectory before his sophomore year in high school was very similar to that of Chen Yuan and the others. He went to school, played ball, and was addicted to various mobile games. Outside of school, he hung out with a group of boys on weekends.

One difference is that he has a good relationship with the girls in his class.

It may be because he has a gentle and delicate personality, unlike those boys who are naughty and careless.

Looking at himself in the mirror, Wei Zhen suddenly had a reverie.

The first time he dressed as a woman was at the graduation ceremony in his second year of high school. Seniors from a higher grade were about to leave the familiar campus and go their separate ways after taking the college entrance examination. The school organized this ceremony and held many activities as per the annual practice.

The head teacher asked his class to put on a program as well. The program required a total of fourteen girls to dance in a group. Excluding one who was on sick leave and one who was too withdrawn and did not like group activities, there were exactly fourteen girls.

At first, it had nothing to do with Wei Zhen.

However, a few days before the show started, a girl broke her leg during the group dance.

During rehearsal, looking at the extremely ugly missing part, the head teacher, who has always been a perfectionist, didn't say anything, but his expression was uglier than the missing part.

The head teacher thought about it and came up with a compromise. Either he would rent a girl from other classes to complete the group dance, or he would find a boy to replace her!

Then, her eyes were fixed on Wei Zhen.

At that time, Wei Zhen came to the dance studio with a group of boys to watch the girls rehearsal. He was smiling, but when he met the head teacher's gaze, he felt cold all over...

He was called to the office and explained the reason. Wei Zhen was unwilling to do it! Please, that was women's clothing. If it got out, how many years would the classmates laugh at him? I'm afraid that after graduation, such anecdotes would be passed down from one level to another, and it might even be mentioned and teased at the class reunion in a few years.

The head teacher appealed to the students' emotions and reasoned with them, using words like "sense of collective honor", "great fire-fighting hero", "you are the only one in the whole class who is capable of taking on this important task", and so on.

Wei Zhen's originally firm heart was shaken.

"We agreed that if the effect doesn't work, you can find a girl from another class to take your place..."

This is what he answered at that time.

Wei Zhen remembered it very clearly. After he agreed, he was taken to a temporary makeup place by two female classmates in the class who had a good relationship with him. The two girls meticulously shaved off the fuzz on his lips, trimmed his eyebrows, put on powder, changed his clothes, and made a wig for him.

He looked at his refreshed self and felt as if he were in a dream.

Totally in disbelief.

Wei Zhen was carried out of the dressing room by two girls and walked to the dance studio with great trepidation. There were waves of surprised shouts... The eyes of the boys and girls in the class were full of surprise. Those expressions are still vivid in my mind when I recall them today.

Not only is his height suitable, but he also has a delicate and pretty appearance, so he can blend in with a group of girls without any flaws.

All the close acquaintances and friends stared with wide eyes, and many of them swallowed their saliva vigorously.

It was this accidental experience of wearing women's clothing that opened the door to a new world for Wei Zhen.

Undoubtedly, he gained more attention from others, either envy or admiration, and the whole world became gentle and lovely. Before putting on this set of clothes, he was just a short man who could not be found in the crowd. No matter his height or temperament, he was an ordinary person who others would not pay any extra attention to for no reason.

Wei Zhen stood up from the dressing table, ready for everything. He was wearing a simple medieval maid outfit, but the cuffs and skirt were shorter, his thin chest was against his white collarbone, and the skirt was black and white. On his long golden hair was a sky blue headband.

He tightened the fake jewel necklace on his shirt tie and turned to leave.

"Xiao Bing? You're so late today."

"Well... I missed the bus and was squeezed into the next one."

"I told you earlier how good it is to live in the dormitory. With your current income, you don't need to work another job."

"No," the girl with glowing white skin shook her head, "This tutoring job pays well."

"Forget it, whatever you want."

Wei Zhen had tried to persuade her in a kind way more than once, but he was helpless with this stubborn girl and simply stopped talking.

If Quan Yafeng were here, he would be dumbfounded.

Because the girl who was talking to Wei Zhen was the white moonlight he fell in love with a few days ago, Li Bing, who was in the same class as them.

She actually works in this maid shop too!

Wei Zhen left first, leaving Li Bing, who was dressed simply, to put on her own makeup.

The plaid shirt she was wearing was a little worn from washing, and her black down jacket was from who knows how many years ago. She was wearing a pair of cheap canvas shoes with velvet on her feet.

What is even more unexpected is that Li Bing, who looks like Cinderella, is actually one of the most popular maid clerks in this store.

……

Some friends in college are very close and can even become lifelong buddies. Not only do they eat and live together, they also joke around in daily life and even interfere with their roommates’ love affairs.

Chen Yuan had no idea that his "good brother" who he had been with for half a year was actually secretly working as Xiao Nan's wife. Quan Yafeng and Liu Nan knew nothing about this either. The only thing they knew was that Wei Zhen and Li Bing had a good relationship. They would never have thought that in addition to being from the same hometown, they were also colleagues.

Chen Yuan walked into the company's gate. There was no one at the front desk except a cleaning lady.

He took the elevator to the workshop on the third floor and curiously observed the scale of the company along the way.

Bauhinia Investment Company is not a big company. It has only seventy or eighty employees and six departments, including management, development strategy, public relations, finance, technology and risk assessment.

The specific operation method is to take projects provided by others, screen and evaluate them, provide technical and financial support, negotiate contract terms, and finally obtain long-term profits.

Almost all the wealthy people have their own investment companies, which are involved in various industries and multi-faceted development.

Therefore, through continuous operation and watering, a towering tree with luxuriant branches and leaves is created, and these projects are the branches and leaves that continuously provide nutrients to the tree.

Pei Youwen has already told Chen Yuan a lot of this simple knowledge.

Chen Yuan looked at the countless cubicles on the third floor. This was the largest department within the company - the Technical Department. There were countless green plants on the tables, as well as various peripherals that looked very high-tech, and even many two-dimensional posters.

It seems that the stacking of countless elements makes it not look like a serious work scene.

The workplace atmosphere is quite lively.

Chen Yuan couldn't help but imagine how he should decorate his workstation if he had one of these workstations. It would be best to choose one near the window, so that he could not only grow green plants but also enjoy the scenery outside when he was tired.

Wouldn't it be possible to keep a good mood while working?
It’s quite novel when you think about it.

Jingle bells, bells, bells—

The phone in Chen Yuan's pocket suddenly rang. He picked it up and the caller's note showed that it was Pei Youwen.

"Hey?"

"Master Jiang, I'll pick you up now. Send me the address."

"No need, I'm already in the company."

"Ah! So soon, wait a moment, I'll be there soon!"

"Well, I'm visiting the third floor now."

hang up the phone.

In a few minutes, Pei Youwen hurried over, wearing a neat suit and his hair was combed meticulously.

He held a steaming bun in his left hand and a can of soy milk in his right hand. Although he hadn't arrived yet, his magnetic voice could be heard from two miles away.

"Oh! Master Jiang~ I already said I would pick you up, but you came so early, which makes me look undutiful and sleep until this hour!"

"Nothing, I just felt bored when I woke up in the morning."

"Master, have you had breakfast? You don't mind the steamed buns and soy milk, do you? These beef buns are fresh out of the steamer."

"Didn't eat."

"Then let's eat together and talk while we eat."

"alright."

Xiao Pei was a little too enthusiastic. Before Chen Yuan even reached out his hand, the bun was already stuffed into his hand.

Before he opened the bag, Pei Youwen beside him had already started to eat it neatly.

"Have you seen this place, Young Master Jiang? It's the company's technical department. The left side is full of workstations, and the right side is the lounge. There are all lazy sofas. If you are tired, you can put on headphones and take a nap."

“I just looked at the workstation.”

"Yeah, it's empty here right now. Mainly because everyone hasn't returned to work yet. The technicians won't start until tomorrow. The people from the management department arrived earlier, so they'll probably be here by the afternoon."

"Don't we usually clock in at 8 a.m.?"

"No, our company doesn't have such a rule. We don't start work until 10 o'clock, but we work longer overtime at night."

"That's good. Waking up early is really torture."

"Because our company's main business is risk assessment, I can say without exaggeration that although our scale is far smaller than those big companies, our risk assessment ranks among the best in the country. Many well-known companies come to us to poach people. We offer those big guys very generous salaries, the working hours are not mandatory, and the atmosphere is more relaxed." Pei Youwen talked incessantly as he walked.

Chen Yuan was very interested in this area and took the initiative to inquire: "Why are our risk assessments so professional? Generally, they are not the most professional ones like those of Alibaba, Tencent, or Qingshan and Hongshan."

"Oh, the direct lineage of Alibaba and Tencent is certainly at the forefront of the industry, but the people we find are not bad either. The most valuable thing in the entire company is this group of evaluators... In fact, many people have talents, just like playing games, Jiang Shao, let me give you an example and see if you can understand it. Some people are talented in mathematics and have naturally stronger logical abilities than others, which we cannot compare with. Some people are talented in expression, whether it is writing or interpersonal communication, they often make people feel like a spring breeze, which we cannot compare with. And there is a type of people who are born with a very keen business sense. We ordinary people can see the development prospects of a project ten steps ahead, and after professional learning, we may be able to see fifteen or twenty steps ahead, but those people can see a hundred steps ahead!"

"Is it that exaggerated?" Chen Yuan was a little surprised. How could this be like a superpower?

"It would be great if it was really as simple as a superpower, but they are all genuine talents. Some of our risk assessors were hired from Mr. Jiang's company, and some were hired by me at high salaries abroad."

“How much is a high salary?”

"Anyway, they are all higher than me," Pei Youwen said with a wry smile, "The annual salary is four million or more... But the money is definitely worth it. An evaluation report made by a genius can bring us tens of millions of net profits every year."

"So where is their workplace? Can I go visit?"

"Of course, I'll take you there."

As he spoke, Pei Youwen took the initiative to press the elevator button and bowed to invite Chen Yuan in.

Xiao Pei's attitude was so respectful, just like he was treating his biological father, which made Chen Yuan feel uncomfortable.

But he said it several times during the classes these days, but Pei Youwen insisted on not changing.

There was no choice but for Chen Yuan to ignore it.

"Then how do you judge whether you have business acumen in this area?" Chen Yuan asked.

"It's hard to judge, usually it depends on the record."

"Battle record?"

"Yes, it's work experience. We only pay people with rich assessment experience. This is not something that can be measured by a test question."

"Oh~ It's like buying it ready-made."
