Rebirth: Starting with Capturing the Goddess Mentor

Chapter 12 Inviting the Counselor to the Movies

Early the next morning.

Chen Yan placed the stamped business plan on Jiang Zhixin's desk: "Come on, Teacher Jiang, come with me to pick out a good storefront."

Jiang Zhixin looked at the plan from left to right, her delicate face filled with disbelief.

"How is that possible? I just submitted it yesterday, and you got it first thing this morning?"

Listen to this, you even came with me to pick out a good storefront. Is it possible to freely choose a storefront?
Do you think this is your family's business?
"Xiao Jiang, you're still too young. You can't judge things by appearances alone," Chen Yan said with a serious expression.

"Chen Yan, watch your tone!" Jiang Zhixin said, feigning anger.

Damn it, there are other teachers in the office!
Call me "Xiao Jiang," don't I have any dignity?
However, she still accompanied Chen Yan to the startup park in the end.

Who can blame her for being a responsible counselor!
The university's entrepreneurship park is located next to the main entrance of student dormitory area 3, with two sides inside and outside.

The inner side faces the student dormitory, while the outer side consists of street-front shops, directly opposite Xuelin Street. There are approximately 15 shops in total, but currently only 5 are vacant.

Chen Yan walked around the area and chose a shop on the outer side of the street that was closest to the dormitory entrance.

After all, if you're running a business, you definitely need to choose a place with relatively high foot traffic.

"Teacher Jiang, this is the room I want. Could you please go to the logistics department and apply for the key for me?"

Chen Yan pointed to a shop that was about 100 square meters and said.

"Okay, I'll tell you when I get the key."

"Oh, by the way, could you also clean the inside for me? It's covered in dust."

After Chen Yan finished speaking, he waved his hand and left.

"What!?"

Jiang Zhixin suddenly raised her head, looking at Chen Yan's dashing departing figure with disbelief.

Is this the guy who said he'd save up for a dowry to marry me just a few days ago?

Look, is this human language?

I ran around doing everything for you, and you didn't even say thank you, and now you want me to clean up for you?!
"asshole!"

Jiang Zhixin stomped her foot, staring at the drab storefront, her delicate oval face flushed red with anger…

Over the next few days, Chen Yan attended classes as usual, but he never knew which page the teacher was on. He was always on his phone replying to messages and posting the latest part-time jobs.

9 month 30 number.

The day before the National Day holiday.

Chen Yan received a call from Jiang Zhixin; the keys to the startup base had been issued.

Chen Yan hurriedly went to Jiang Zhixin's office, only to find her not there. The key was on the table, so he grabbed the key and headed straight for the startup base.

The shop Chen Yan chose has the address number 102. To the right is the student supermarket 101, and to the left is a women's clothing store with a row of stockings of various colors and styles displayed at the entrance.

As far as I can remember, it was opened by three female students from the fashion design school.

Upon opening the glass door of the shop, Chen Yan found that it had been cleaned spotlessly, and even the old office chairs had been replaced with new ones.

"Damn, is Teacher Jiang lusting after me? I just said it casually, and she actually cleaned for me?"

Looking at his own "handsome and dashing" reflection in the glass, Chen Yan couldn't help but think to himself.

With an address, registering a company becomes much simpler. Just find a middleman at an agency to handle the process, and the business license will be issued in about 2-3 business days.

With the site and business license secured, all that's missing is the funding to launch the project.

Based on Chen Yan's previous experience in fundraising, he could be looking for angel investment now. However, his current part-time business revenue is not high enough, which means he has too few bargaining chips to ask for a higher price.

The National Day holiday is the peak season for part-time jobs. Chen Yan has already finalized cooperation with 5 companies, and these are all large clients with at least 50 employees.

Looks like I won't be able to go home this holiday.

……

In dormitory 303, Li Wenxin lived the farthest from home, but he was a rich second-generation and had already bought a business class ticket back to Shandong.

Zhang Feifan and Wang Risheng both live relatively close to each other, with their homes generally within a 2-hour high-speed rail journey.

So, on the evening before the holiday, Chen Yan was all alone in dormitory 303.

The usually bustling 303 was unusually quiet at this moment.

"Damn, Lao Jin went home too. It's really boring."

Chen Yan lay on the bed staring at the ceiling, and Jiang Zhixin's alluring face inexplicably popped into his mind.

So, the brain directs the hands to pick up the phone and press the dial button.

"Beep...beep...beep..."

"Hello?" Jiang Zhixin's pleasant voice came through the receiver.

"Teacher Jiang, did you go home during your holiday?"

"No, the highway will definitely be very congested tonight. I plan to go back tomorrow."

"Well... I'm free anyway, and I'm all alone in the dorm. How about we go see a movie together?"

There was no sound from the other end of the microphone.

Jiang Zhixin's heart felt as if it had been gently touched by an invisible hand, and the first thought that popped into her mind was panic. She hadn't expected Chen Yan to extend such an invitation. "I'm your teacher!"
Is it really appropriate to invite your teacher to go to the movies alone?

Besides, I don't think I've ever gone to the movies alone with a guy before?

"Teacher Jiang, are you still listening?"

"Um...yes, what are you looking at?"

When Jiang Zhixin said those words, she was stunned, as if they had just slipped out of her mouth uncontrollably.

"So Young" or "Iron Man 3".

"I want to watch 'So Young'."

“Sure, where are you? I’ll come find you,” Chen Yan replied.

"No need, no need. Just wait downstairs in the dorm. I'll get ready and come pick you up."

"See you later."

After hanging up the phone, Jiang Zhixin's face instantly burned.

Good heavens, I've rejected countless boys throughout my life, and I can come up with excuses for rejection without even thinking. How come this time...

Is it really because he's getting old and his Dao heart is unstable?

Meanwhile, Chen Yan was unaware that Jiang Zhixin was currently engaged in a fierce internal struggle alone in her apartment.

He climbed out of bed on his own, picked up a hairdryer, and started styling his hair.

Twenty minutes later, Chen Yan received a message from Jiang Zhixin and walked out of the dormitory building humming a little tune in a flamboyant manner.

A white Audi A4 was parked at the entrance. When Chen Yan came out, the car window slowly rolled down, revealing a girl wearing sunglasses. Behind the sunglasses was an extremely charming face.

"Get in the car," Jiang Zhixin said.

Chen Yan opened the car door and sat in the passenger seat, immediately greeted by a pleasant lily fragrance.

A string of crystal wind chimes hangs on the rearview mirror, radiating colorful light under the refraction of the setting sun.

"Why aren't you going home for the holiday? Aren't you from Ningbo? It should be easy for you to go back."

The counselors had all seen the students' enrollment information, so it wasn't surprising that Jiang Zhixin knew Chen Yan was from Ningbo.

"I was very busy during the National Day holiday and didn't have time to go back."

Chen Yan adjusted to a comfortable sitting position and complained.

"What are you busy with all day? You're always skipping classes. Be careful you don't fail your final exams!"

In reality, university professors don't pay much attention to students' academic problems. Unless you cause any major trouble, they generally won't bother with you.

Moreover, Jiang Zhixin was just a counselor, not even a teacher in the strict sense, so she only gave him a reminder and did not seriously stop his truancy.

"I'm busy with business, and sometimes I just can't find the time."

"What? You've already started a business?" Jiang Zhixin asked in surprise.

"Hey! Drive carefully, don't look at me!"

"Oh, okay." Jiang Zhixin adjusted the steering wheel and asked, "What kind of business are you in? As your advisor, shouldn't I have the right to know?"

"Okay, okay, you pay for the tickets later. I'll let you know when I get there."

???

Jiang Zhixin rolled her eyes at him, her pink lips unconsciously pursing slightly, adding a touch of coquettishness to her charming face.

Okay, okay, so this is my first time going to the movies with a guy, and I'm supposed to pay for it?
Ten minutes later, the white Audi pulled up in front of the movie theater.

Jiang Zhixin unbuckled her seatbelt: "Can you tell me now?"

"The startup project I told you about last time, the business is to help companies recruit part-time workers. Students can not only earn money but also develop their skills. Business owners can save time and effort. As for me, I earn a service fee in the middle."

"It sounds like a win-win-win situation, so have you made any money yet?"

Chen Yan stroked his chin thoughtfully: "Um... I haven't calculated it exactly, but since the start of the semester, it should be close to 2, right?"

"What?"

Jiang Zhixin initially thought Chen Yan was joking, but seeing his calm and composed demeanor as if he were talking about a trivial matter, it didn't seem like he was joking.

It's only been 10 days since school officially started, right? 10 days = 2?
My God, my monthly salary, including housing fund, is only 5000!

Are freshmen these days really this amazing?
Oh no.

He must be the only one who's special, right?
Jiang Zhixin's lips parted slightly as she stared blankly at Chen Yan.

His face was calm, his deep eyes serene, only occasionally flashing with a subtle, eerie light, as if he were looking... looking under my skirt! ? ?

Jiang Zhixin was wearing a very short skirt today. When she was sitting, the skirt only reached her upper thighs. Because she was turned towards Chen Yan, from his angle, he could just see her panties...

Jiang Zhixin's face instantly flushed crimson.

Then, with a loud "smack!"
A light slap mark remained on Chen Yan's left cheek.
