Rong Yan saw the usually restless kid had calmed down, heaved a sigh of relief, and told the proprietress, “The same three bowls of hot and sour noodles I mentioned earlier. Also, bring me a bowl of soy milk, warm.”
“Okay,” the proprietress jotted it down and was about to prepare the order.
Then something came to her mind, and she turned back, smiling at her, “By the way, beautiful, you must be one of our regular customers, right? We’ve recently started a promotion, ‘like’ for a free serving of our new pig’s trotter soup.
Would you like to participate?”
“A ‘like’ and it’s free?” Rong Yan perked up at the mention of no cost.
The proprietress liked her straightforward and unpretentious personality and was even more fond of the high value she brought with her father and son; she had a good impression of her and patiently explained the rules of the event, “Yes, just ‘like’. Specifically, you post our public account on your Moments, and once you get 66 likes, you can exchange them for a portion of pig’s trotter soup.”
“The public account is posted on the table; you can scan it to follow and share.”
66 likes… Rong Yan considered her pitifully few WeChat friends and had already given up, but she still said, “Thank you, ma’am. I got it.”
“Alright, I’ll go make your hot and sour noodles,” the proprietress took her notebook and went back to the kitchen.
Rong Yan stared at the public account on the table, feeling a sense of loss.
Only a fool would pass up free money. The chance for free pig’s trotter soup was right in front of her, yet she couldn’t have it. So frustrating!
Shengxiao noticed her little expression and suddenly asked, “Want to drink it?”
Rong Yan looked up, and just by his gaze, she knew he was ready to splurge again. She quickly shook her head and said, “I want the kind that’s free. If it costs money, forget it. It doesn’t feel the same; it’s not fun.”
It wasn’t that she couldn’t afford a serving of pig’s trotter soup; it was the taste of getting it for free that mattered. She figured explaining it to him wouldn’t make sense. After all, with his status, people were always trying to give him stuff for free, and he didn’t even care to accept them! So, yeah, comparing people can be irritating.
Her thoughts were all too obvious. Shengxiao narrowed his eyes and took out his phone, “Just scan the QR code, right?”
“You also need to post it to Moments and gather 66 likes. Do you even have that many people in your Moments?” Rong Yan doubted it, remembering that when she added him, Shengxiao had mentioned he only had her as a WeChat friend, “Never mind, it’s too much trouble. By the time we gather 66 likes, we’ll have finished eating. Even if it’s free, we won’t be able to drink it. It’s not worth it.”
The distinguished man didn’t say much, just scanned the code following her instruction. Then, he opened his company’s WeChat group on his phone and dropped a link in the chat.
Mr. Li: [Add me, like.]
Those four words caused an uproar in the Li Group’s senior management WeChat group!
Shengxiao had set up a WeChat account for the annual meeting and was added to the group, but the big BOSS had never spoken in the group before.
As a result, many thought he didn’t read the group chats.
After all, for this man, every second meant a six-figure movement of funds; wasting time was equivalent to wasting money.
When he suddenly made an appearance, the high-level executives of the Li Group swung into action, and after a brief moment of shock, they quickly made calls and added him on WeChat.
Shengxiao only accepted 66 people.
The lucky first 66 who added him didn’t even have the chance to get excited; they checked the great man’s Moments and saw just one post.
[Hot! Hot! Hot! Huang’s hot and sour noodles ‘like’ for free pig’s trotter soup-]
The 66 senior executives who had just finally added the big BOSS on WeChat to their inner circle were… perplexed.
Although no one understood what was going on, they all operated on the principle that sucking up to the boss was always right, and they liked the post in droves.. It didn’t take long for the 66 likes to add up!
