Chapter 431: Can it still be like this?

Shen Ci stopped, and Shi Ye looked at her without avoiding it. He had a clear purpose, and at the moment he didn't find any extra excuses to cover up his intention to get to know the other party.

After a while, Shen Ci smiled and nodded.

Shi Ye's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly took out his mobile phone. After the two added WeChat to each other, he introduced himself: "Shi Ye."

"Shen Ci."

"The Ci of kindness?"

"Hmm."

"Really special."

"Thank you, there are many freshmen who need your help, you go to be busy, goodbye."

After leaving the elevator, Shen Ci left on her own. Shi Ye looked at her back, and then looked at the friend pass message on his mobile phone and raised his lips and smiled.

After sending her brother, Shen Ci also drove back to school by herself. It was also "returning to school + freshman registration". The scene of the University of Science and Technology was not inferior to Longcheng University.

Shen Ci dragged her small suitcase to the dormitory building, and met Jiang Lingchuan head-on.

This surprised her a little.

Because since Gu Lianxing and Jiang Lingchuan talked once last time, Jiang Lingchuan has not come to their dormitory.

Could it be that after a summer vacation, the two have "reconciled"?

Shen Ci felt it was unlikely, because Lianxing has been very hot with her kart coach recently.

"Classmate Shen Ci!"

Seeing Shen Ci, Jiang Lingchuan still greeted her with a stable mood.

Shen Ci had a

Hearing Shen Ci ask this, Jiang Yuan's expression dimmed visibly to the naked eye. He shook his head: "No, I just dropped off a freshman junior at her dormitory."

"Oh..."

Shen Ci felt a bit awkward for a moment and was just about to say goodbye and leave, but Jiang Yuan couldn't help but ask: "How is she doing lately?"

"She's doing quite well," Shen Ci said truthfully. "She's been learning go-karting lately. She's actually quite addicted to it and goes every day."

"Go-karting?" Jiang Yuan thought of the time Gu Lianxing learned to drive and bumped her head into a big lump, and he couldn't help but furrow his brows: "She dares to drive?"

Shen Ci smiled and nodded: "Although it's like a landlubber entering the water, there is still progress. It's just a hobby. Her sense of direction was poor to begin with, so learning this might improve it. Maybe she'll be able to get her driver's license in the future."

Jiang Yuan felt that what Shen Ci said made sense and couldn't help but nod along: "That's true. It's rare for her to have a hobby other than binge-watching shows. That's quite good."

Just as they were talking, the phone in Jiang Yuan's hand vibrated. He subconsciously picked it up to look, and the expression on his face sank along with it.

"What's wrong?" Shen Ci asked subconsciously upon seeing this.

Jiang Yuan looked at Shen Ci. Perhaps because of Lianxing, he also regarded Shen Ci as his friend. He hesitated for a moment before handing the phone to Shen Ci to look at.

"Senior Jiang, thank you just now. You are so handsome. Can I ask you out another day?"

It even ended with a cute, shy emoji.

Girls nowadays really like to be direct.

Shen Ci looked at the message and couldn't help but curl her lips into a smile: "Is this the freshman junior you just helped?"

Jiang Yuan nodded expressionlessly and asked tentatively: "How do I reject her?"

"You're not even going to consider it before rejecting?"

"You know me," Jiang Yuan said helplessly.

Shen Ci was even more helpless, but seeing his pitiful appearance and knowing he definitely hadn't had this kind of experience, Shen Ci still decided to help him out.

"I'll teach you a trick. You can use it whenever you encounter this situation in the future. It's absolutely foolproof."

Saying this, Shen Ci quickly helped Jiang Yuan reply to the other party.

"No need to be polite, Beibei, you are also beautiful-beautiful-doo!"

Three seconds later, the other party sent "..."

Just looking at this "...", one could feel the deafening silence from the other side.

"Done." Seeing this, Shen Ci returned the phone to Jiang Yuan with a satisfied face.

Jiang Yuan took it and looked, but he was completely bewildered: "That's it? What does this mean, Classmate Shen Ci?"

"You can't understand this?"

Jiang Yuan shook his head with a face full of question marks.

"Read out the message I replied with."

Jiang Yuan looked hesitant, but he still cooperated, speaking in a serious and articulate manner: "No need to be polite, Beibei, you are also beautiful-beautiful... doo?"

"Pfft..." Shen Ci couldn't help it; she was amused by his wooden, cute expression and tone: "As expected of you. Such cute words sound like pure 'straight-guy' flavor coming out of your mouth."

Jiang Yuan didn't care about that; he asked persistently: "That's it?"

"Yeah, don't worry. She won't have any more interest in you."

Seeing Shen Ci so confident, Jiang Yuan believed her, though he still had doubts in his heart.

It can be done like this?

Shen Ci didn't explain further. For Jiang Yuan, his state was actually quite good. Apart from the people and things he was interested in, he only had a half-understanding or was completely ignorant of other things. This kind of person was both pure and simple, possessing a kind of honest, dull sensitivity.

And in this era where information spreads rapidly and is forcibly instilled into you from all directions, someone like Jiang Yuan, a semi-primitive man, was truly too rare.

Lianxing, on the other hand, was the other extreme.

So the two people's personalities were truly extremely complementary.

Lamenting this pair of star-crossed lovers all the way back to the dormitory, upon opening the door, Lianxing and Pili had actually both arrived.

"I was just about to send you a message. I thought you weren't coming this morning."

Gu Lianxing stood up to welcome her: "It's almost ten o'clock, why are you only just arriving?"

"I went to Longcheng University to drop off my brother."

"You went to drop him off? I thought Auntie Shen would go."

Shen Ci said helplessly while opening her luggage: "My mom has awakened a career-oriented personality now. Ever since my brother finished the college entrance exam, she has been leaving early and returning late every day. That housekeeping company is now doing quite well."

Gu Lianxing felt deeply about this: "My mom doesn't even look for the residential area's cleaning team anymore; she uses Auntie Shen's employees. She can book them twice a week, and the marble in our house has been polished until it looks like it's been buffed."

Hearing this, Shen Ci smiled: "Thank Auntie Deng for me."

"Aci." Pili walked over at this moment and spoke in a low voice: "There's something I want to tell you."

Shen Ci looked at her curiously, and seeing the smile on her face, she knew it was good news: "Speak."

"The live-streaming earnings from the 'Top 100 New Streamers' period have arrived. I can buy back my Master's courtyard."

"It arrived?"

Pili stood out in the "Top 100 New Streamers" event and won the championship, and according to the competition rules, the agency does not take a cut of her live-streaming earnings during the event period.

But the platform still takes its usual 50% cut, and personal income tax must also be paid according to the law.

Even so, Pili's earnings from these few months were enough for her to achieve complete financial freedom.

Shen Ci didn't ask exactly how much she earned, but Shen Ci had been waiting for this day regarding buying back the courtyard.

"No problem, let's go handle the paperwork this afternoon!"
