Chapter 58: Ice Skating Rink Accident
The woman stood up and waved to call the server over.
"I don't often go to internet cafes, but if you're looking for me, you can have the front desk call me."
She took out her bank card to pay the bill.
"I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."
"Let me see you off."
The two of them walked out of the coffee shop together. The woman had driven a red Mazda.
As she was about to get into the car, the woman suddenly turned and looked at Chen Fan.
"I forgot to ask, what's your name, little brother?"
"Chen Fan. Chen as in 'ear east,' Fan as in 'ordinary person.'" Chen Fan said with a smile.
The woman nodded slightly, and for once she said something teasing.
"At your age, with your way of thinking and knowledge, you're hardly an ordinary person."
"My surname is Tang."
"Nice to meet you, Tang Jie."
It seemed that Chen Fan's calling her "Tang Jie" had amused her.
The woman smiled for the first time.
"No need to be so polite, you can call me Sister Tang in the future."
"I'll go first, and I look forward to your good news."
Watching the woman drive away, Chen Fan's smile faded, and he fell into a dilemma.
"Should I take over the internet cafe or not?"
"It takes 200,000 yuan in a week..."
And 200,000 yuan was only the cost of taking over the internet cafe. After taking it over, he would still need to renovate the entire layout and style of the internet cafe.
There would also be electricity bills, equipment maintenance fees, and rent...
Calculating everything, if Chen Fan wanted to take over this internet cafe, he would need at least 300,000 yuan.
But at the moment, Chen Fan only had 50,000 yuan on him.
To come up with 250,000 yuan in a week, even as a reincarnator, it would still be no small pressure.
Chen Fan even considered selling Yuming.com at a low price.
But he quickly dismissed this idea.
Selling Yuming.com would be selling his first bucket of gold, the foundation of everything he had.
He absolutely could not sell it cheaply.
If he didn't have enough money, he would have to think of other ways.
Chen Fan racked his brain, trying to find any clues for making money from his memories.
What major events happened this year?
In January, the sequel to Journey to the West was released in theaters, and humans successfully cloned a monkey...
Mobile Communications was established, and the three major portals were listed on NASDAQ one after another. The Great Emperor became the new president of the northern country...
Gladiator won the Best Actor Oscar, and the Old Strategist won the Golden Rooster and Hundred Flowers Film Festival for Best Director for My Father and Mother... Zhou Dudu made his debut with the album of the same name...
However, none of this seemed to have much to do with Chen Fan.
Wait a minute?
Chen Fan suddenly stopped in his tracks and looked towards a store by the side of the road.
Standing by the side of the road, he could vaguely hear the sound of music coming from the store.
A flash of inspiration suddenly struck Chen Fan's mind.
Jay Chou's debut... debut... singing...
That's right!
Chen Fan felt like giving himself a slap.
How could he have forgotten about this while pondering over international events?
As a reincarnator, what could be easier and more effortless than copying songs to make money?
All he needed was to remember the lyrics, and it required absolutely no investment. It was truly a win-win deal.
Thinking of this, Chen Fan became a little excited and looked carefully at the store in front of him.
"Little Snowman?"
Chen Fan was stunned.
Wasn't this the ice rink that the Adidas guy had mentioned when he provoked Chen Fan and his dormmates?
Chen Fan peered through the iron railing towards the inside.
It turned out that this ice rink was an outdoor one.
He could see a large square inside where many customers were skating on dry ice skates.
Besides this, there was also an indoor rink, which was probably for ice skating.
Chen Fan thought it was no wonder these guys chose to meet here.
Such a large venue, even if they got into a bloody brawl here at night, chances are no one would notice.
Chen Fan couldn't help but step inside.
He had no interest in roller skating.
What attracted Chen Fan was the song playing over the loudspeakers on the dry ice rink.
He wanted to find some inspiration, to see what songs were popular this year, so he could decide which one to copy.
"I'd rather you be cold-hearted, let me wholeheartedly forget..."
Hmm, this is by Yu Quan.
At this time they were indeed very popular, but a few years later, this group would face their biggest crisis.
"Because I love, so I love, feelings don't need to be generous..."
Hmm, this is by Vinci Chow.
This star, who was nominated by the media as the successor to the last Heavenly King of Hong Kong, who could have imagined that twenty years later, he would prefer being a chef.
"Men cry, cry, it's not a sin..."
This is by the Heavenly King Liu.
"I'm afraid I won't make it in time, I want to hug you..."
"Dazed and in the dark, holding back shooting stars, burning without hurting a frozen dead heart..."
This is Richie Jen's 'The End of the World'...
Huh? That's right.
Chen Fan suddenly remembered.
The day before his college entrance exam, he had sung Richie Jen's song 'Missing You' in front of Su Ruochu.
Although this song wasn't famous among Richie Jen's works.
But what if he didn't hurry up and register it, and after a few years, Richie Jen suddenly released an identical "Miss You", wouldn't that be awkward?
How would he explain that to Su Ruochu then?
Although there were many classmates who heard Chen Fan sing at the time.
After a few years, they would probably have forgotten.
But Chen Fan dared not gamble on that possibility.
To conceal his identity as a reincarnator, he had to be thorough and plug all the holes that could potentially expose him.
Thinking of this, Chen Fan excitedly clenched his fist.
"Then I'll publish this song first."
With his decision made, Chen Fan felt a little relieved and turned to leave the dry ice rink.
But just a few steps out, he heard a cry from behind.
"Ah, move out of the way..."
Chen Fan turned his head in confusion, only to see a girl wearing dry ice skates wobbling towards him.
"Quick, get out of the way..."
She looked flustered, but Chen Fan recognized her at a glance.
"Xu Qiuci?"
Chen Fan instinctively tried to dodge to the side, but unexpectedly, she also moved in the same direction in her panic.
So the next second.
Bam.
The two collided head-on.
Xu Qiuci crashed straight into Chen Fan's arms.
Her body instantly lost balance, and the two of them staggered and fell to the side.
Thump.
A dull thud.
Chen Fan's back slammed against the hard ground.
Xu Qiuci ended up sprawled on top of Chen Fan.
Her pretty little face was pressed tightly against Chen Fan's head.
Her beautiful little mouth was directly against Chen Fan's cheek.
Their eyes met.
Both of them froze.
Xu Qiuci froze, unsure of what to do.
Chen Fan froze too, because the back of his head had hit the ground, and it was still ringing.
Most importantly... to protect her earlier.
Chen Fan's hands were still in a raised, supporting position.
Looking up.
Chen Fan's expression suddenly stiffened.
Because his hands were now in the most inappropriate place.
His two hands were cupping her chest, pushing upwards.
In his dazed state, Chen Fan had unconsciously groped.
"So soft..."
