Chapter 84: Chapter 0084: Top Scholar

Chu Feng, having heard Cui Jingyan’s words, felt that what he had just said indeed might have been somewhat inappropriate.

If this were ancient times, given his situation, it would be akin to an elder sister acting as a mother.

However, his words just now carried a sense of taking charge. Even though he meant well for Qin Mei, he hadn’t considered Qin Mei’s feelings. Qin Mei was an adult, and more importantly, she was the relative who had supported his university education.

Chu Feng scratched the back of his head and chuckled, saying, "Sister Yan, you’re right; Sister Mei is definitely much better than me. I’ll just keep quiet and listen."

Cui Jingyan gave Chu Feng a stern look and said, "Go and make some tea."

Qin Mei, appreciating Cui Jingyan’s understanding, gave her a grateful look.

"Sister Mei, you speak; I’ll make the tea," Chu Feng said with a grin, moving the tea set closer.

Cui Jingyan glared at Chu Feng and said, "Sister, you speak; let this little rascal serve us properly."

Qin Mei smiled awkwardly and said, "Actually, I’ve been thinking these past few days, but I’m not very experienced in business. I just have an immature idea, and I don’t even know if it’ll work."

Chu Feng, smiling sheepishly, said, "Sister Mei’s idea will definitely be the best."

Cui Jingyan stared at Chu Feng and said, "Just focus on making your tea; we’ll listen to our sister."

Qin Mei pondered for a moment, then said, "Actually, I’ve been thinking about rebooting Chu Tian’s old building materials business. I’m fairly familiar with this industry, and we wouldn’t need to worry about the supply chain. Plus, the profits in this business aren’t few."

Cui Jingyan, upon hearing Qin Mei’s words, frowned and said, "Sister, I do think it’s a good industry. But so many years have passed, and for the building materials industry, you’re completely new. Entering the business again might not be easy. And the most important thing is that building materials are very laborious."

Pausing, Cui Jingyan looked at Chu Feng and said, "Let the men handle the money-making business; we women should do something less taxing."

Chu Feng said, "Sister Mei, I saw how my elder brother built up the business. It’s lucrative, but it’s also very taxing. Maybe you should consider doing something else?"

Qin Mei said, "Of course I’m aware. If I enter the business now, I would indeed be a newcomer. However, I’m not planning to do the traditional building materials business. I’m considering starting a creative home decor business, particularly targeted at single female professionals.

Many single female professionals own their own homes and are willing to try creative home decor. Although the market segment is small, the customer retention could be very high.

And if we can truly capture this market and secure a significant market share, it would be considerable."

Cui Jingyan’s eyes lit up after hearing Qin Mei’s words, and she exclaimed, "Sister, your idea is brilliant. In the city, the number of single female professionals is increasing. Most of them own their homes, and women naturally love romance and uniqueness. This niche has great potential. Your idea is absolutely fantastic, and I believe that if it succeeds, based on this concept alone, we can secure a foothold in the home building materials sector.

Moreover, it won’t be a problem for us to promote and design. After all, we also own an entertainment company, which can leverage some artists for endorsements. The influence of fans could be tremendous."

Cui Jingyan, a veteran in business, had already formulated a complete business plan just from a few words by Qin Mei.

Qin Mei, somewhat embarrassed by Cui Jingyan’s enthusiasm, said, "Actually, this is just a preliminary idea; I haven’t thought through it that much."

Cui Jingyan said, "Sister, your creative idea will definitely be a hit. I’ve decided to join in. How much more do you need for starting capital? I’ll cover it."

"Sister Mei, this is the money from Xie Kun; it’s originally yours, so take it," Chu Feng said as he saw Qin Mei frown, immediately passing Xie Kun’s cheque to her.

Qin Mei took the cheque and said, "I’ve made a rough estimate that five million in starting capital should be enough for the storefront and the first batch of products."

Cui Jingyan said, "Sister, I’ll cover whatever remaining funds you need. When it comes to profits, we’ll split them evenly."

"Sister Yan, you can’t do this by yourself; how can such a good business opportunity be enjoyed by one person alone? Sister Tingting and I want to invest too; we also want to be strong women," Fan Xiaoxiao interjected.

This time Fang Ting didn’t stop Fan Xiaoxiao.

Cui Jingyan said with a smile, "Alright, count the two of you in too. When the time comes, you both can endorse for free, and those will be your sweat equity shares."

"Sister Mei, don’t worry about the money. If we’re short, I still have some," Chu Feng said.

Cui Jingyan replied, "This is our women’s venture. You men should step aside."

Qin Mei was influenced by Cui Jingyan’s enthusiasm and exclaimed, "Right! This is a business of our own, you little man, go cool off somewhere else."

Fan Xiaoxiao looked at Chu Feng sympathetically and said, "Little Boss, I can’t help you this time either. Because I’m a woman, and I also want to be a powerful woman. Once I become a powerful woman, I could totally make the rules for you, Little Boss."

"Pfft!"

Fan Xiaoxiao’s words made Chu Feng spit out all the tea in his mouth in a single gulp.

Seeing Chu Feng’s embarrassed state, all the women burst into laughter.

Chu Feng, watching the four beautiful women sitting in front of him, swallowed hard.

In the time that followed, Chu Feng completely turned from boss to tea server. He served the four beauties and then listened to their lively discussions.

Of course, Chu Feng would chime in from time to time, but if it was a good idea, the group would claim they had already thought of it.

If it was an unworkable idea, criticism was unavoidable.

The four women chatted till very late, and although it’s not easy for women to become friends, once they do, they become true besties—and very close ones at that.

Now, the four women were just like that, while Chu Feng, a billionaire boss, was completely left out.

Late into the night, the four women just kept talking, leaving Chu Feng to go back and be alone in his room.

But Chu Feng was quite content with the leisure, going back to have a long video call with An Rongrong, flaunting their affection for each other before going out to train with Zhang Shisan.

The next morning, Chu Feng prepared breakfast for five. Qin Mei had stayed overnight, so Chu Feng had to make breakfast for five.

"Xiao Feng, you go check the results. I can handle the cooking," Qin Mei said when she saw Chu Feng making breakfast, urging him.

Chu Feng replied nonchalantly, "Sister Mei, it won’t make a difference if you wait a bit longer, the results won’t run away."

Qin Mei urged, "Go now!"

With no other option, Chu Feng said, "Alright, I’ll check the results first."

However, Chu Feng still muttered, "I already know the results, checking will be the same."

"Little Boss, you check the results. I want to see too. Sister Yan said you are very smart, I really want to see just how smart you are," Fan Xiaoxiao jumped out in her robe and said.

Chu Feng glanced at Fan Xiaoxiao and said, "I should be a bit smarter than you, given I have ’little’ here."

Fan Xiaoxiao exclaimed, "Little Boss, are you saying I’m all boobs, no brains? Hmph! Little Boss, I curse you to score zero on everything."

Chu Feng replied, "Then you’re likely going to be disappointed."

While speaking, Chu Feng opened the website and entered his exam registration number.

"Ah! Such a high score!" Fan Xiaoxiao said as she saw Chu Feng’s score, her mouth agape in surprise.

"Xiao Feng, how did you do?" Qin Mei hurried over when she heard Fan Xiaoxiao’s exclamation.

Seeing the score on the computer screen, Qin Mei was somewhat in disbelief.

"735 points! Little Boss, how did you manage it, what’s your brain made of!" exclaimed Fan Xiaoxiao excitedly.

Such a score was almost what Chu Feng had expected, after all, essays are hard to control.

"Sister Mei, didn’t I say I could bag a Top Scholar for you?"
