In the evening, Lu Fei was cooking on the balcony behind the room. As he heard the door opening outside, Tong Xiaojun felt a sense of joy upon seeing Lu Fei's busy figure.
However, she still had worries when she decided to come back with Lu Fei. She was afraid that he might just be temporarily remorseful and would return to his old ways in no time. That's why she chose not to remarry Lu Fei for the time being.
"I'm back. Go wash your face and rest for a while. We'll eat soon," Lu Fei said as he flipped the frying pan.
Looking at Lu Fei's appearance, Tong Xiaojun had the urge to cry. She felt a surreal sensation.
"Why are you crying? Who bullied you?" Seeing Tong Xiaojun's strange expression, Lu Fei put down the spatula and asked with concern.
"Who's crying? I'm happy," Tong Xiaojun wiped her tears and smiled. "You never cooked at home before."
Lu Fei smiled and turned back to continue cooking. He knew that Tong Xiaojun was shedding tears of joy. "If you like it, I'll cook for you every day!"
"Lu Fei, you've changed!" Tong Xiaojun abruptly said.
"Changed? How?" Lu Fei knowingly asked.
"Changed for the better. You've become somewhat unlike yourself. I can't believe you would undergo such a big transformation after our divorce. If I had known, I would have divorced you long ago."
Hearing this, Lu Fei didn't know how to respond and felt a bit awkward. He turned around, glanced at Tong Xiaojun, and softly said, "I'm sorry."
"Go wash your face, let's eat."
"Okay!" Tong Xiaojun obediently nodded.
At night, Lu Fei took off his clothes and prepared to get into bed. Tong Xiaojun glared at him, leaving Lu Fei stunned. "What's wrong?"
"Who said you can get into bed?" Tong Xiaojun asked.
"If not on the bed, then where?" Lu Fei looked around. The small room didn't even have a sofa.
"Anyway, until I completely forgive you, until we remarry, you can't sleep with me," Tong Xiaojun said each word deliberately. "You can refuse, and I can leave immediately!"
Hearing this, Lu Fei felt somewhat helpless. He knew that Tong Xiaojun was testing his patience. He could only nod reluctantly, "Alright, I'll follow your lead!"
"Also, during this period, if you mess around, I will call the police!" Tong Xiaojun said sternly.
Lu Fei's head buzzed upon hearing these words, but he still nodded with a determined expression, "Alright!"
"If you want, you can go find other women."
"How is that possible?" Lu Fei exclaimed.
"Why not? Haven't you frequented prostitutes these years?" Tong Xiaojun asked.
"Uh..." Lu Fei fell silent for a moment. As he prepared to sleep on the floor, he said, "I won't do it anymore."
He thought that once Tong Xiaojun agreed to come back with him, everything would be back to normal. But he didn't expect that it had only just begun...

Early the next morning, Lu Fei received a call from Su Hongcheng.
Su Hongcheng was very efficient in his work. After all, Lu Fei wanted to open an internet café, so Su Hongcheng naturally had to help find a location. Once the location was found, a large amount of pressure would be lifted off him, relieving some of the burden.
"Rent? I won't rent, I'll buy!"
"What? You want to buy?" Su Hongcheng couldn't believe it on the other end of the line, but then he realized that Lu Fei had Victory Electronics behind him, so nothing was impossible.
"Is there a problem?" Lu Fei asked.
"No problem, of course there's no problem. Wait a moment, bro, I'll negotiate with the other party and give you a fair price." Su Hongcheng laughed.
"Okay!"
Lu Fei hung up the phone and glanced at the soy milk and fried dough sticks on the table. He felt delighted because it was prepared for him by Tong Xiaojun before going to work.
At this moment, Su Hongcheng was making a phone call to his old friend.
"Lao Zhang, you better treat me to a meal today, or I won't spare you!" Su Hongcheng chuckled.
"Lao Su, shouldn't it be you treating me? I offended the tenant for your sake. Luckily, the tenant didn't want to cause trouble, or else things wouldn't be so easy," Zhang Zhiyang said with a bitter smile on the other end of the line.
Lu Fei asked Su Hongcheng to help find a store location, and Su Hongcheng was more than willing to help. With a store, Lu Fei could set up his internet cafe, and Su Hongcheng could supply him with fifty computers. It was a win-win situation, so he asked his old friend Zhang Zhiyang for assistance.
Zhang Zhiyang wasn't exactly a boss himself. He worked in real estate sales and had access to a lot of property resources from developers. He was responsible for selling them and had a team of salespeople under him. As long as the houses were sold, he would profit from it.
In this society, connections were important. Zhang Zhiyang managed to obtain sales rights from several bosses, showing his capability. But these days, it was really difficult to sell houses, especially in the residential areas and even more so for commercial properties.
What do you do when the stores don't sell? The sales team came up with a solution: renting them out. They started by offering free rent until the shops started making money, and then they would discuss the rent later when the business owners had enough funds.
Although they were receiving rent now, the number of buyers was very low. The developers still had about sixty percent of the commercial properties in Fucheng city under their control.
"Okay, okay, I know it's tough for you. Don't complain to me anymore," Su Hongcheng said with a laugh. "That's why I tried my best to persuade my client. Finally, he agreed to buy the store. Guess what? He actually nodded his head."
"He wants to buy it?" Zhang Zhiyang was surprised.
"What do you think? Shouldn't you treat me to a meal now?" Su Hongcheng said with a grin.
"Definitely, buddy! Now that it's a done deal, I'll treat you to a big feast!"
"Great, I'm looking forward to it. Hurry up and arrange to clear out the shop over there. The other party is in a hurry!" Su Hongcheng urged.
"Hahaha, Lao Su, it seems like you're the one in a hurry!" Zhang Zhiyang laughed.
"Aren't you in a hurry too?" Su Hongcheng laughed along. He was naturally in a hurry because the sooner Lu Fei's shop opened, the sooner he would earn money.
"Alright, enough talk. I'll prepare the documents and come to your place to meet the client. That's settled."
"Okay, see you then!"
After hanging up the phone, Zhang Zhiyang was excited. After a long period of silence, another store had finally been sold. It was a storefront worth around 200,000 yuan, and with a commission rate of 5%, he would earn 10,000 yuan. He was naturally ecstatic.
Although Fly Entertainment No. 1 wasn't as busy as on Sundays, there were still quite a few people. In the afternoon, after Lu Fei received the money from Taozi, he deposited it into the bank. It had been four consecutive days, and Sunday was the busiest day, earning 47,000 yuan in a single day. These past few days, the daily revenue was around 35,000 to 36,000 yuan. He now had over 150,000 yuan in his account.
This fast increase in money left Taozi dumbfounded, but he was no longer surprised. Ever since Lu Fei decided to open the internet cafe, he counted money every day. His dream in life was to count money until his hands cramped, and he was surprised that it happened so quickly. Today, he even felt too lazy to count the money.
Lu Fei also found counting the money troublesome, so he had been wanting to hire an accountant specifically for this job.
A few people had come to apply for the position these days, and their qualifications were good, but he wasn't completely at ease because he wasn't familiar with them.
The field of accounting was very complex. An accountant could make your company's books appear balanced and still make money from it.
Right now, Lu Fei only had one internet cafe, so there might not be much to gain, but his Fly Entertainment stores would spread rapidly like a high-speed train. When that happened, if one store swind
