Chapter 164: I Wouldn't Want It Either!

By the time Le Mingrong learned of this matter, Yang Tianxing had already driven away in a flashy manner.

"Thank you, Brother Yang."

Le Mingrong arrived at a public phone booth next to the 4S dealership and sincerely made a call to express her gratitude.

"It's a small matter. Since the commission goes to someone anyway, it might as well go to someone I know."

Yang Tianxing said with a smile. Although the car's performance was average, it was a new car after all; the bright red little Xiali weaving through the heavy traffic of Chang'an could occasionally become an inconspicuous piece of scenery.

"I really thank you. This way, I don't have to go back to my previous company."

Le Mingrong's voice was somewhat choked with emotion.

Yang Tianxing felt quite moved as well. Aside from girls like Deng Yidi whose experiences were too complex, she had already lost faith in marriage, which was why she treated "being a mistress" as a life goal.

In his previous life, Le Mingrong had never met Yang Tianxing, and he didn't know what her choices had been. Perhaps under the heavy burden of life, she had truly compromised half-reluctantly, so Yang Tianxing felt that saying he was saving a young soul didn't seem wrong.

"You have high comprehension and are quite capable of enduring hardship. Would you be willing to work for me in the future?"

Yang Tianxing asked. He had originally only had such an intention, but Le Mingrong was even more proactive: "Of course I'm willing! Brother Yang, just call me anytime, and if there's something I don't understand, I'll study it earnestly!"

Yang Tianxing smiled: "Then let's see when the opportunity arises."

After hanging up the phone, Yang Tianxing arrived at the entrance of the Yanta campus of Jiaotong University; Tian Jiayi had notified him to come and pick up the legal regulations for Rocket 101.

The two were not that familiar, and Tian Jiayi still had to knock on the car window with a "thump, thump, thump" to be sure.

"It's too hot outside, you should get in the car first."

Yang Tianxing leaned out and said.

Tian Jiayi gave an "mm," opened the car door to sit inside, and then handed the documents to Yang Tianxing.

As soon as Yang Tianxing touched the thickness of the documents, he immediately felt the sincerity. The level and dedication of those previous students were insufficient; aside from the "copy + paste" shortcut keys, there was basically no original thought of their own, nor had they considered how to safeguard Yang Tianxing's interests.

But this copy from Tian Jiayi was estimated to be over 40 pages, and the heavy weight in his hand was not light.

"When passing by the Small South Gate, I saw a dessert shop had opened. Quite a few people were queuing, and I didn't know your taste, so I just bought a little bit."

Yang Tianxing flipped through the materials while handing over the snacks.

Tian Jiayi was somewhat surprised, thinking that this boy was quite attentive to details; Little Zhiliao happened to be a girl who liked detailed surprises.

"A newly bought car?"

Tian Jiayi asked while cupping her chin, preventing the pastry crumbs from falling onto the brand-new car mats.

"Yeah, just picked it up."

Yang Tianxing said nonchalantly: "Please sit for a moment; if there are any questions, I can ask you in person."

Tian Jiayi nodded and took a moment to size up Yang Tianxing; the way he looked at the materials was quite serious.

Thus, the impression of Yang Tianxing gradually took shape in Tian Jiayi's mind: a bit of money, a bit roguish, a bit of romantic detail, a bit serious—it was actually becoming more and more compatible with Little Zhiliao.

In fact, Yang Tianxing was also very shocked inside. This legal basis was truly too detailed; it considered almost every problem that could arise in work, even including contracts for part-time university students, and all of it started from Yang Tianxing's perspective.

However, as he flipped through it, Yang Tianxing's nose suddenly sniffed. A faint, delicate fragrance emanated from the A4 paper; this scent was very prominent when mixed into the cabin of the new car, and it also made him feel very familiar.

There were also some obvious creases on the paper, which indicated that at the last moment, someone had been hunched over this document, modifying and checking it word by word to ensure there were no loopholes.

Yang Tianxing observed Tian Jiayi through the rearview mirror and silently shook his head.

Judging from the quality of the document, Tian Jiayi was not the type of person who could sit under a desk lamp or lie on a bed, holding a pencil in one hand and pondering over a document in the other, for her own sake.

"The taste is not bad, right?"

Yang Tianxing asked.

Tian Jiayi smiled and nodded: "Yeah, girls all like to eat these little snacks. I'll take some back for my roommates."

"The quality of this legal proposal is very high; I need to take it back and study it carefully."

Yang Tianxing asked tentatively: "Now, I would like to invite you to be the legal consultant for Rocket 101. What does Student Tian Jiayi think?"

"Uh..."

Tian Jiayi thought to herself how this could be; she wasn't even familiar with the content of the document. Thinking of the entanglement between Yang Tianxing and her good friend, Tian Jiayi hesitated for a moment, but finally said: "I'll reveal one thing to you, but you must promise me not to tell anyone."

"Okay."

Yang Tianxing actually already had the answer in his heart.

"This document actually wasn't made by me; it was made by Little Zhiliao."

Tian Jiayi sighed: "She has been busy with this document recently and missed several rehearsals for the freshman gala. She even specifically consulted a cold-faced female professor on some key issues. Otherwise, how could you think the document quality would be so high? It's because Little Zhiliao put her heart into it; she even put more effort into it than her own affairs."

"As expected."

Yang Tianxing wasn't too surprised. Tian Jiayi had no close relationship with him, and only Little Zhiliao would do such a thing.

"I don't understand why you two had a falling out."

Tian Jiayi said earnestly: "But in Little Zhiliao's heart, she is still thinking of you. She is just too proud; even if she has sacrificed for you, she won't admit it."

Yang Tianxing nodded silently; this was Little Zhiliao.

Tian Jiayi raised her head and looked at the watch on her wrist: "We have another class later. Do you want to go to the classroom to find her? I'll create this opportunity for you."

"Thank you."

Yang Tianxing was not pretentious and immediately followed Tian Jiayi to the lecture hall at Jiaotong University.

It happened to be the break time; many students were chatting, some were sleeping on their desks, and others had gone to the restroom.

Although there were many people in the lecture hall, Tan Zhizhi was easy to distinguish, because as long as one followed the gaze of most of the boys, that was her.

"Creak."

Yang Tianxing walked straight over and sat in the chair next to Little Zhiliao.

In a trance, there seemed to be a familiar feeling; that experience of eating in the cafeteria at the Chang'an campus of Jiaotong University returned. Yang Tianxing felt a murderous aura behind his head.

"What are you here for?"

Tan Zhizhi turned her head and discovered it was Yang Tianxing, asking unceremoniously.

This tone seemed unfriendly, but if someone were truly familiar with her, they would know that Little Zhiliao rarely used this tone to speak to others. She liked to politely shut people out; her using this unceremonious tone actually meant that she had already let him in.

Not only did he enter the door, but he also stirred up a storm in her heart.

Yang Tianxing took out a document: "You did this, right?"

"Jiayi said so?"

Xiao Zhiliao asked in return.

"No."

Yang Tianxing shook his head: "This has your scent on it; I'm familiar with it."

This sentence was overly ambiguous, yet coming from Yang Tianxing's mouth, it seemed normal.

Xiao Zhiliao turned her head away, blushing as she softly cursed: "Scoundrel!"

At this moment, the teacher walked into the classroom with a book, and Tan Zhizhi glanced at Yang Tianxing without saying a word.

Yang Tianxing had made up his mind to attend class together, but he first had to resolve the misgivings in Xiao Zhiliao's heart.

Therefore, Yang Tianxing coughed and said: "Um, I'm single now."

Tan Zhizhi opened her small mouth in surprise, and after a long while, she asked: "You dumped her?"

"No."

Yang Tianxing waved his hand: "There were some misunderstandings; we aren't suitable to be together right now."

Yang Tianxing spoke vaguely on purpose, conveying the meaning of a breakup while leaving room for explanation.

Unexpectedly, upon hearing this, Xiao Zhiliao's sculpted, delicate brows suddenly furrowed, and she picked up her book and walked to a different seat.

"Only when another girl doesn't want you do you think of looking for me? Well, I won't want you either!"
