Have you wrapped up things at school?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’ll be free after my defense next Monday, basically liberated, and I can finally settle down to work.” Lu Ziming’s tone was very relaxed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For him, who had already joined Tiancheng Capital, graduation was a new beginning in life, and the future was bright.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two exchanged simple updates about their lives.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Ziming said, “Xie Shuyu specifically called my sister today and praised you to the skies, thanking me for introducing you. I know Xie well enough; she never flatters people for no reason. Nice job, Lao Song, seems like you really impressed her, giving us some face.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tang Song chuckled, “We do get along well; Sister Shuyu takes good care of me.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After the roadshow, she sent a red envelope of ten thousand yuan and raised his part-time pay to eight thousand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Damn! Lao Song! Why do I feel like you’re smiling so lewdly? You’re not thinking of relying on a rich woman, are you?” Lu Ziming’s loud voice came through the phone. “No offense, but her standards are pretty high; you really have no chance!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two bantered for a bit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tang Song said, “By the way, Ziming, I won’t be renting the apartment at Qingxin Homestead anymore; I’ll vacate it by the end of the month.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had moved into that apartment when he arrived in Yan City in November.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, Lu Ziming had taken care of him; the contract started in December, and the rent was paid every six months, with no deposit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By the end of May, it would be exactly half a year.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now that he had his own place, there was no need to hold onto it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Ziming was surprised. “What happened?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I recently changed my work location, and Qingxin Homestead is a bit far, so I’ll be moving.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Ziming paused for a moment, “Alright, take your time moving.

Do you want to come along?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Qiu Yu?” Tang Song muttered and laughed, “Forget it; we’re not that familiar, and she didn’t invite me. I won’t crash the party.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiu Yu was quite popular in their major. Although she wasn’t stunningly beautiful, she was above average for their software engineering department.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, during university, Tang Song didn’t have much interaction with her; they weren’t even friends on WeChat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Alright, I knew saying that to you was pointless.” Lu Ziming chuckled, “You’re smart and ambitious; if you were a bit more outgoing, you might even have a girlfriend by now. Well, I won’t keep you. I have to prepare for my defense.
