Yi Feng led Gu Muxi to the front of his own shop.

"What is this place?" Gu Muxi looked up at the self-built shop door, puzzled.

"My business base. Come on in." Yi Feng smiled, opening the door and entering.

"Brother Feng!"

Han Ping'an put down the hammer in his hand and got up to greet them when he saw Yi Feng.

"Aren't you taking a break this weekend, Ping'an?" Yi Feng noticed his clothes were covered in dust and his eyes had bloodshot, looking somewhat tired.

"I'm not tired, no need for a rest. I want to finish the missions you assigned as soon as possible," Han Ping'an said with a hoarse voice.

"You need to balance work and rest. If you keep going like this, you'll collapse before the work is done."

"Let's call it a day. Your only mission today is to rest well. If I catch you working, I'll dock your pay," Yi Feng said sternly.

He then noticed a stunningly beautiful girl standing behind Yi Feng, with a fresh aura, an oval face, and delicate features, prettier than any female star on TV. He couldn't help but be amazed.

Is this Brother Feng's girlfriend?

She's really beautiful!

Brother Feng really is a lucky man.

"Ping'an, let me introduce you. This is Gu Muxi, the tigress from next door."

"Ow! Gu Muxi, you pinched me again!"

Yi Feng winced in pain, rubbing the soft flesh around his waist.

Gu Muxi glared at him and haughtily said, "Didn't you call me a tigress? You're lucky I didn't eat you alive!"

"Who is he?"

"Han Ping'an, my first employee, a capable lieutenant!" Yi Feng patted Han Ping'an on the shoulder, praising him.

Han Ping'an scratched his head, feeling embarrassed.

"Sister-in-law, hello!"

Gu Muxi glared, her expression one of utter speechlessness.

"Hey, you're calling the wrong person!"

Han Ping'an looked at Yi Feng, his eyes full of surprise.

That look was asking if he had made a mistake.

Yi Feng chuckled and took out 10 yuan from his pocket, handing it to Han Ping'an.

"Ping'an, go buy some food and come back. No work today, just rest well."

"By the way, where's Nannan?" Yi Feng turned his head, noticing Han Nannan was not there.

"She probably went to play next door. She'll come back on her own when it's time to eat," Han Ping'an shook his head and smiled.

"It's normal for kids to love playing, but she's also at the age to start school. Once the shop is on the right track, we'll find a school for her to attend," Yi Feng pondered for a moment.

"Really? Thank you, Brother Feng!" Han Ping'an shouted excitedly, his eyes filled with gratitude.

"Yeah, of course. Now go buy some food," Yi Feng smiled.

"Okay, I'm on it!" Han Ping'an put down his mask and dashed out.

Gu Muxi looked around the shop, surprised, "Yi Feng, how much do you pay for renting this place? And you're hiring people and renovating?!"

"My god, all these computers?!"

"Yi Feng, where did you get these from?"

"How much have you earned?"

Gu Muxi stared at the computers piled up like a small mountain behind the workbench, her face full of shock.

Is this the same Yi Feng who had to split a lollipop into two to make it last?

Just the shop rent and these computers must have cost a fortune!

And he even hired someone!

Incredible!

"Hehe, made a bit from fixing computers, not much," Yi Feng said calmly, with a hint of pride in his tone.

Living another life, if he couldn't even make his first bucket of gold, it would be a waste of his previous life's reputation as a dark horse entrepreneur.

"Wow, all these computers? Can they be used?" Gu Muxi ran excitedly to the pile of computers, touching here and looking there.

She had always wanted a computer to surf the internet and chat with people from all over the country, even the world.

How cool would that be!

She had been longing for a computer for years, but she also understood her family's financial situation didn't allow for such luxuries.

So whenever she heard her well-off classmates talk about computers, QQ, and games, she was very envious.

But she could only envy them in silence.

Seeing so many computers piled up, even though they appeared to be old, her eyes shone with excitement, unable to contain her joy.

An old computer is still a computer. A second-hand one would cost at least four to five thousand yuan, which was quite expensive.

"Only two have been fixed so far, the rest are still being worked on," Yi Feng laughed, patting one of the computers on the workbench.

"This computer is your birthday present."

Gu Muxi was stunned for a full three seconds.

"Ah! What?! A gift, for my birthday?"

"Yi Feng, are you serious?"

"Really?"

Gu Muxi excitedly grabbed Yi Feng's arm, incredulous, repeatedly confirming.

Yi Feng rolled his eyes, "Of course, it's true. When have I ever lied to you?"

"Since we were kids, how many times have you tricked me?"

"Cough cough, a true man doesn't dwell on the past. Let's let bygones be bygones. Anyway, I'm not fooling you this time."

"Really?"

"Really, but… I do have one condition."

Gu Muxi quickly crossed her arms defensively, "Yi Feng, let me make it clear, I'm not selling myself, not even for two computers!"

Yi Feng tugged at the corner of his mouth, "…"

"Gu Muxi! What do you take me for? Do I look like that kind of pervert?"

Gu Muxi sized him up and seriously said, "Looking at you like this, you kind of do."

Yi Feng: "(;?_?)…"

Gu Muxi burst into laughter, her body shaking, "Don't look like that, I'm just teasing you."

"Tell me, what's the condition? As long as it's not too outrageous… I don't mind agreeing."

Yi Feng wanted to say "be my girlfriend," but it felt unrealistic and might scare her off.

"Hehe, I haven't thought of it yet. I'll tell you when I do," Yi Feng squinted, keeping his options open.

"Alright, let me know when you've decided!"

"Let's find a way to take the computer back home. How about we just go online? What do you think?" Gu Muxi couldn't wait, touching the computer.

"We'll get a tricycle to take it back later," Yi Feng said.

"Then you carry it!"

"Hm? Gu Muxi, are you treating me like a beast of burden?"

"Can't I?"

"Hm… not that you can't. I'll be your beast of burden as long as you feed me grass, hehe."

"Hm? Why does your tone sound so lewd?"

"Does it? No, it doesn't!"

Gu Muxi sat in front of the computer, eagerly asking, "Yi Feng, how do you use this?"

"I'll teach you. This is the mouse, this is the keyboard." Yi Feng stood behind her, wrapping his arms around her, and guided her hand to the mouse to teach her the basics.

Gu Muxi felt the breath from Yi Feng on her ear, her heart racing uncontrollably, her cheeks flushing.

"Click the left button to select, right-click to open options, and double-click the left button to open software," Yi Feng instructed seriously.

But Gu Muxi felt his hand was warm, almost electrifying, and she hardly absorbed Yi Feng's instructions.

"Got it?" Yi Feng asked, leaning down.

"Ah? Ah? Yeah, yeah, it's really that simple," Gu Muxi blushed, laughing it off.

"Next, I'll teach you to type using the keyboard. You know pinyin, right? Use this shortcut to bring up the input method, then type. It might be slow at first, but you'll get used to it," Yi Feng explained carefully.

After a while, Han Ping'an returned with snacks.

"Brother Feng, the snacks are here!"

Gu Muxi's eyes sparkled, "I'm going to have some snacks first!"

She darted under Yi Feng's arm and ran to grab the snacks.

"What a glutton," Yi Feng shook his head, smiling, and followed.

Han Ping'an had bought as many types of snacks as possible with 10 yuan.

Gu Muxi was eating cookies, but when she saw Yi Feng pull out a sausage, she wanted one too, but there was only one left.

"Ah, no more sausages? Just one?" Gu Muxi deflated.

"How about… you eat this one? It's tasty and quite long."

"Alright, let me bite the tip then!"

"Just bite gently, be careful not to hurt your teeth."

"I won't, I'm not a child. I'm an 18-year-old adult, okay!"

"Hey, hey, don't lick! If you lick it, what am I supposed to do?"

"Hmph~ Hand it over! What, you disagree? Want to argue with me?"

"Alright, alright, here you go." Yi Feng conceded and handed her the sausage.

Gu Muxi, fearing Yi Feng might snatch it back, immediately stuffed the sausage into her mouth, taking the whole thing in.

"Ha ha! Now it's all covered in my saliva, you've got nothing to eat!" She laughed triumphantly, then happily began to enjoy it.

Yi Feng wore an odd expression.

Just now… did she take the entire 10 cm sausage in?

He hadn't realized she had such a talent!

After eating the snacks, Gu Muxi wanted to learn how to fix computers and pleaded with Yi Feng to teach her.

Yi Feng disassembled a desktop and explained the function and purpose of each component, as well as common issues.

Gu Muxi was very attentive and careful, showing a strong ability to grasp concepts.

But when she learned about the essence of computer components being integrated circuits, she understood the role of capacitors, circuits, and pins.

They stayed in the shop until 3 pm, and Gu Muxi, noticing it was getting late, said it was time to go home.

"You go ahead, I've got some things to do. I'll bring the computer to your place later," Yi Feng smiled.

"Hm? You're not coming back with me? What else do you have to do?" Gu Muxi asked curiously.

"I've still got to fix computers to earn money. Where else would the startup capital come from?"

"Oh, alright, not bad, Yi Feng, quite ambitious! What do you plan to do with the money you earn?"

"I want to marry you."

"Get lost, you've been saying that since we were kids!"
