Chapter 821: I am not that kind of person

~7 min read 1,318 words

Shen Ci was stunned, unsure if it was really such a coincidence or just a shared name.

Su Zheyuan was also stunned. He thought he was just paying the other party, so what did it mean when the other party handed him a business card?

But he still accepted it out of politeness.

Before Su Zheyuan could react, the other party had already headed toward the elevator, clearly going upstairs to change clothes.

Su Zheyuan blinked at Shen Ci: "What does this mean? Is this asking me to contact him?"

Shen Ci took the business card from his hand and glanced at the personal information on it; it was actually the executive CEO of that overseas company.

"He has his eye on you," Shen Ci blurted out.

Su Zheyuan was startled: "Who? Who has their eye on me?"

"This foreigner," Shen Ci gave a playful smile and raised the business card in her hand: "The look he gave you just now was so ambiguous. You'd better be careful."

Su Zheyuan's sphincter tightened immediately: "Don't mess around, I don't play that game."

"Aren't you gay?" Shen Ci teased him on purpose: "Then why did you ask Xu Junhuan for an autograph just now?"

"I was getting it for Xiao Gao; she likes him."

Shen Ci raised an eyebrow and said nothing more.

That evening, while eating at home, Shen Xing excitedly told his sister the news that his team was going to start participating in the University League.

"Sister, you are our team's sponsor. When the time comes, we can advertise for you on our team uniforms."

Shen Ci nodded while drinking soup: "Sure. You can print your sister's cemetery on the clothes and advertise it widely in front of the national audience."

Shen Xing: "..."

Shen Ci couldn't help but laugh first: "I'm just teasing you. Your sister doesn't have any advertisements to run."

"What about that go-kart club of yours? How is it?"

Shen Ci twisted her brow: "Then you might as well print Mom's cleaning company on it. Mom's company needs advertising benefits more."

Shen Jingjing's eyes lit up upon hearing this: "That works."

"Fine." Shen Xing nodded. Since his mother thought it was okay, he certainly felt there was no problem.

Thus, that very evening, Shen Xing found a senior from the school's design department to help design the team uniforms.

The next day, Shen Ci planned to pack her things and return to school.

After getting up, she discovered that Gao Zhan had replied to her message after two o'clock in the middle of the night.

She stared at the message for a few seconds and replied: "Rest well, take care of your health."

Returning to the University of Science and Technology, Shen Ci had just entered the school gate when she ran into Wang Li, a teammate from the Olympiad group. The other party was very excited to see Shen Ci: "Shen Ci, have you seen the news in the group chat?"

"What news?" Shen Ci shook her head. She had directly muted and folded that group; there were no notifications unless she clicked on it proactively.

"The semi-final results are out. We all made it, and you're the group leader again!"

Shen Ci raised an eyebrow and subconsciously asked: "Did Wang Yikun make it too?"

"He made it."

Shen Ci nodded to indicate she knew: "Then good luck in the finals. Maybe we can win a team award."

Just as Shen Ci was about to leave, Wang Li hurriedly stopped her, looking a bit embarrassed: "Shen Ci, Wang Yikun might have been a bit impolite to you before, but we are all from the same school. Can you let bygones be bygones and let Wang Yikun practice problems with us?"

Shen Ci asked with a smile: "Did he ask you to tell me that?"

"He didn't say it directly, but he hinted at it. He probably couldn't bring himself to do it, and you know what he's like."

"Does it make a difference whether he comes or not?" Shen Ci looked at Wang Li and said: "He barely qualified for the preliminary round, yet he managed to pass the semi-finals. If I'm not mistaken, every time we finish practicing problems, you explain my thought process to him, right?"

Wang Li laughed embarrassedly upon hearing this: "You could even guess that."

Shen Ci couldn't be bothered to manage these things. She had promised the teacher she would help her teammates improve together. Now the effect was obvious, and since they had all made it to the finals, it was understandable that Wang Yikun would be anxious.

After all, who wouldn't want to get an Olympiad result to add a brilliant stroke to their file?

"Whatever, let him be."

Shen Ci dropped those words and turned to leave.

Wang Li blinked in confusion: "Is that a yes or a no?"

Returning to the dormitory, it was empty.

Shen Ci tidied up her things simply, then took out her phone and asked in the group: "This princess has returned, where are you guys?"

Pili replied immediately: "At the company."

Lianxing posted a photo of herself sunning her nails: "I'm getting a manicure."

Shen Yuzhen also reported in, sending a photo of hands tightly clasped: "On a date."

Shen Ci: "Zhenzhen, are you dating again?"

Shen Yuzhen: "Yeah, idle is idle. This time I'm dating a 985 student."

Lianxing: "You still have a soft spot for college boys."

Shen Yuzhen: "Not a college boy, he's a dancer at a bar."

Pili: "..."

Lianxing: "?"

Shen Ci: "Is that what 985 means?"

Shen Yuzhen: "You guys don't understand, his waist strength is great."

Pili: "No one asked you!"

Lianxing: "0 people care!"

Shen Ci looked at the messages in the group, but her body felt a wave of emptiness. She sat in the chair and sighed softly.

Calculating in her head, it had been almost a month since she and Gao Zhan last rolled in the sheets.

She faced her body's physiological feedback squarely; she really did miss it a bit...

She opened the chat box with Gao Zhan, just about to ask if he was free tonight, when the next second, Luo Tianrui's call came in.

"A-Ci, I've made an appointment with Lu Kasi. He said he has an hour before lunch to see us."

Shen Ci subconsciously looked at her phone upon hearing this; it was already 9:20.

"I know. Send me the address. You don't need to come, I'll go myself," Shen Ci said.

Luo Tianrui reminded her: "Can you handle it yourself? If it involves professional knowledge, I'm afraid you won't be able to cope."

Shen Ci said: "If professional knowledge were useful, it would have been negotiated already. I have a plan in mind."

The address was indeed the executive lounge of that same hotel.

Shen Ci called Su Zheyuan immediately.

Su Zheyuan didn't ask much; since Shen Ci was looking for him, he agreed directly.

On the way there, Shen Ci didn't forget her main business and still sent a message to Gao Zhan asking: "Are you free tonight?"

Gao Zhan still didn't reply immediately.

At the hotel entrance, Shen Ci and Su Zheyuan met up.

"What's the situation, A-Ci? Is it that film project?" Su Zheyuan asked.

Shen Ci pulled him into the hotel lobby, then took the elevator to the executive lounge floor, seeing Lu Kasi sitting in a window seat from afar.

"Look at that person!"

Su Zheyuan had already seen him: "Him? Isn't this that foreigner?"

"Did I tell you this person has his eye on you?" Shen Ci reminded Su Zheyuan, saying seriously: "I have a project to discuss with him in a moment. Help me seduce him."

Listening to Shen Ci's serious tone, Su Zheyuan's eyes widened in shock: "I am not that kind of person!"

Shen Ci: "You are now!" ===== CHAPTER 822 =====
