Chapter 116: Chapter 116: They Can’t Possibly Win Against Them
After hearing Lan Yu out, the few boys present all paused for a moment.
Rely on their... good looks?
Stand at the door first to attract customers?
They all unconsciously conjured up classic scenes from some ancient pleasure quarter.
Lu Youye instantly imagined himself decked out flamboyantly, warmly ushering in passing girls, saying, "Dear customers, please come in."
Hmm—why does that sound kind of exciting?
Lan Yu was still enthusiastically coming up with ideas: "I just thought of some photos Han Jing showed me before, and Shengbao, your three other brothers are also so handsome. If you could invite them too..."
"Stop right there!"
Though Lu Youye hadn’t known Lan Yu before, they hit it off after a few exchanges.
He immediately said, "My oldest brother is busy as a dog, in and out early until late; my second brother is untouchable and unapproachable, it’s impossible for him to join such a chaotic event."
"My third brother’s vacation ends next week, and if he really came, it would no longer be a matter of who’s the most popular. I reckon our place would explode. You’d better stop thinking about them."
Lan Yu was a bit disappointed upon hearing this, but still very excited.
"That’s okay! The attractiveness of you four alone is enough to hold up the scene, so let’s decide on that!"
...What do you mean, ’let’s decide on that?’
It seems they haven’t been asked if they agree, right?
Lu Youye was someone who would do anything just to be with his precious little sister. Han Jing didn’t care, as long as it was fun.
The problem was Lu Youming and Huo Yu. These two were more reclusive than the other.
Lu Youming kept a poker face, so Lan Yu took that as his consent.
Huo Yu saw the faint smile in Lu Sheng’s eyes and also silently nodded.
Thus, the handsome guys’ café project was agreed upon in a snap.
The group decided to just report the project and find a time to discuss the specific issues. Lu Sheng then said, "I have plans tonight, how about coming to my place tomorrow night?"
Han Jing and the others knew that Lu Sheng was referring to the apartment they had visited last night, but Lu Youye and Huo Yu didn’t know.
Huo Yu didn’t ask, and Lu Youye simply didn’t care—wherever his sister went, he would follow. The place itself didn’t matter at all.
By evening, the other students from Class A had all left school.
The vast classroom was empty and silent, with only Tang Yiyi, Lin Ya, Hu Yun, and Lu Qianrou sitting together.
On the table in front of Lu Qianrou lay a huge stack of school anniversary event project sheets.
Lu Qianrou had sworn to herself that morning that she would not let Lu Sheng trample over her like this. She must find an opportunity to bring Lu Sheng down.
As luck would have it, the school just happened to be organizing the anniversary celebration.
She had decided that she would use the anniversary fair to regain her popularity at school and firmly establish her footing, pushing down that vile Lu Sheng.
She couldn’t believe that she would always be outdone by her!
Lu Qianrou was the class president, and all project sheets were handed to her.
So, she had already thought it through. She wanted to see what activities others in the class, especially Lu Sheng and her group, were preparing before deciding what they would do.
Lu Qianrou rummaged through the pile of papers and managed to find the project sheet with Lu Sheng’s name.
Tang Yiyi and the others immediately crowded over to take a look, seeing a team of six people: team leader Lan Yu, and members Lu Sheng, Lu Youming, Lu Youye, Han Jing, Huo Yu.
The line-up had them all dumbfounded.
No way, didn’t this Lan Yu just transfer to Beijing University Affiliated High School today? How has she already gotten so chummy with those Shengjing folks? And now she’s the team leader of this event??
Lu Youye is from Class E, right? When did he start mingling with Class A and these people to plan events? And he’s always hated being arranged by others, how come he’s obediently being a team member now?
And the craziest part is, why are Lu Youming and Huo Yu among the team members??
In class, Huo Yu is practically invisible; since the start of school, they haven’t seen him talk to anyone in class.
And there’s no need to mention Lu Youming. His aloofness and reclusiveness are notorious in Shengjing. How come he’s participating in these activities bustling with loads of people?
What kind of event could it be that brings together people with such different personalities?
Lu Qianrou is also completely baffled, while Tang Yiyi and the others quickly glance at the name of the event on the list. It’s blunt and straightforward.
Five striking characters shine forth — [Handsome Guys Café]
...Handsome Guys Café??
"Damn it," Tang Yiyi couldn’t help but swear, "I was still wondering what kind of event wouldn’t be weird for that group to do together."
"But if it’s a Handsome Guys Café, with Qianrou’s Fourth Brother, Fifth Brother, and Han Jing, plus that Huo Yu, the appeal of their looks is indeed very attractive."
"If that bitch Lu Sheng really goes through with this project with that Lan Yu, wouldn’t they steal all the limelight from us?"
"What can we plan to be more attractive than them and overshadow them entirely?"
Now is the era where looks reign supreme.
Which girl doesn’t like to look at handsome guys?
Lu Youming and Lu Youye, as well as Han Jing, are usually voted by the school girls to be at the top of Shengjing’s Most Handsome Students list.
But these people usually don’t bother with any girls at school, one more aloof than the other.
Now it’s great — if they become waiters in the café, anyone who enters has the chance for a close encounter with these gods, even the possibility of intimate service by them.
Who wouldn’t be thrilled?
Even Tang Yiyi’s heart races at the thought of that scene; after all, the twins Lu Youming and Lu Youye are handsome enough on their own, not to mention when they’re together it’s hard to look away.
At this moment, Lin Ya suddenly says: "If they are running a Handsome Guys Café, why can’t we make a Beautiful Girls Café?"
At Lin Ya’s suggestion, everyone’s eyes light up.
Right, girls like to look at handsome guys, and don’t boys also like to see beautiful girls?
Furthermore, the number of boys at Shengjing is twice the number of girls. If it’s about attractiveness, surely they could draw in more people than Lu Sheng’s group.
"Look here, Qianrou," Lin Ya says to Lu Qianrou, "You, Yiyi, Hu Yun, plus me; that’s already four of us. You could invite a few more beautiful girls over."
"Aren’t you close with Fu Chen’s cousin, Fu Siya? Fu Siya is so beautiful, and she’s the CEO of the Fu Group."
"If you can get Fu Siya to come, not only would our sponsorship be secured, but we might also attract media attention thanks to her."
"Plus, you’re also on good terms with that popular young star, Yao Xuantong, right? If you could invite her, just her fans alone could blow our popularity through the roof."
Upon hearing this, Lu Qianrou couldn’t contain her excitement.
— This idea is simply brilliant!
Their four beauties, plus Fu Siya and Yao Xuantong; their level of attractiveness certainly wouldn’t be inferior to the likes of Lu Sheng’s group.
Moreover, if Fu Siya and Yao Xuantong really could come, no matter what Lu Sheng’s group does, their popularity wouldn’t surpass theirs.
Therefore, Lu Qianrou immediately said, all fired up: "It’s settled then, I’ll contact Siya and Xuantong tonight."
"If they can come, I’ll go to The Thorn Birds to find someone to help us design and expedite the production of waitstaff uniforms. We’ll be sure to stun everyone at the event!"
