Rebirth: Starting with Capturing the Goddess Mentor

Chapter 29 The Competition Ends
After covering himself with a blanket, Chen Yan lay down on the sofa and fell asleep.

In the middle of the night, Jiang Zhixin was probably thirsty, so she got up in the dark to find some water.

She walked out of the bedroom and found Chen Yan fast asleep on the sofa.

"This guy is usually a bit of a rascal, but he's actually quite reliable when it counts," Jiang Zhixin thought to herself, finishing her water before turning and going into the bathroom.

A moment later, the sound of a showerhead came from the bathroom.

About half an hour later, Jiang Zhixin, wearing a thin nightgown and smelling sweet fragrance, came to the sofa.

On the sofa, Chen Yan tilted his head back slightly, a few unruly strands of hair falling casually across his forehead, their color shimmering faintly in the moonlight. Beneath his moderately high nose bridge, his thin lips were slightly pursed, a subtle curve playing at the corners of his mouth.

"He looks pretty handsome from this angle."

Jiang Zhixin muttered something under her breath, then slowly bent down.

Her pink lips, like delicate flower petals, gently touched Chen Yan's lips, like a dragonfly skimming the water, a fleeting touch.

The brief touch felt like an electric current instantly coursing through her body, and then she quickly straightened up like a startled deer.

The blush on her cheeks became even more pronounced in the moonlight. Jiang Zhixin subconsciously bit her lower lip, as if savoring the thrill of that moment.

……

The next morning.

Chen Yan was woken up by his biological clock. He rubbed his eyes, got up, and stretched.

At that moment, the sounds of busy activity came from the kitchen.

"You got up even earlier than me?"

Chen Yan was somewhat surprised. He went to the kitchen and saw Jiang Zhixin busy inside.

She was wearing a pink slip dress underneath and a matching robe on top. Luckily, the living room air conditioning was on high, so she didn't feel cold wearing that.

Hearing footsteps, Jiang Zhixin turned her head and smiled, "It's Saturday today, why don't you sleep in a little longer?"

"Sleeping on the sofa is uncomfortable; my whole body aches and my back aches."

After Chen Yan finished speaking, he deliberately rubbed his waist.

Ok?
Is this implying that I want to sleep in the bed?
Jiang Zhixin looked at Chen Yan, silently considering for a while, before stammering, "Why...why don't you go to my bed and sleep some more?"

Chen Yan was slightly taken aback, thinking that Teacher Jiang seemed different today.

What does it mean if a girl agrees to let you sleep in her bed?
As a consummate scumbag in his past life, Chen Yan naturally knew that this meant the girl had let her guard down, and in a relationship, it meant the progress bar had reached the point where he could confess his feelings.

Chen Yan naturally wouldn't let such a good opportunity pass by. He walked into the kitchen and smelled the steaming hot casserole: "Hehe, I'll take a nap after I finish eating."

"The millet porridge I'm making will be ready soon. Go wash up first," Jiang Zhixin said.

"okay." Chen Yan gave an OK sign, turned around and walked towards the bathroom, where he found that a brand new mouthwash cup and toothbrush had already been placed in front of the sink, and even the toothpaste had been squeezed out in advance.

"What a considerate and thoughtful counselor!"

Fortunately, I didn't do anything reckless last night.

In relationships between men and women, details determine success or failure.

I slept on the sofa last night, so I can sleep in the bed today. Next time I'll be able to sleep in a person's bed.

Only by proceeding step by step can one remain invincible.

……

"Your campus beauty pageant is really popular; all the teachers in our office know about it."

During breakfast, Jiang Zhixin brought up the school beauty pageant.

"The results are pretty good; we should have the results by noon today."

"I checked the list and it seems that the number one student is from our School of Economics and Management. That girl is indeed quite pretty."

"Hehe, in my heart, Teacher Jiang will always be the most beautiful." Chen Yan promptly gave her a compliment.

“But I’m already 24 years old. I’m too old for you 18 or 19-year-old college students,” Jiang Zhixin suddenly said sourly.

Chen Yan smiled nonchalantly: "Teacher Jiang, do you know what age a woman is most beautiful?"

"How old?"

“30 years old.” Chen Yan held up three fingers. “The temperament and charm of a 30-year-old woman are far beyond what an 18-year-old girl can match. Besides, as long as you take good care of yourself, even if you are 40, your skin will still be in good condition.”

"So you like 30-year-old women?" Jiang Zhixin asked back.

After finishing the last mouthful of porridge, Chen Yan suddenly gazed at Jiang Zhixin with deep affection: "I like you at 30."

Jiang Zhixin felt a little embarrassed by his gaze, so she lowered her head slightly, not daring to look directly into his burning eyes. Her long eyelashes trembled gently like butterfly wings, casting a shy shadow under her eyelids.

However, the corners of her mouth unconsciously turned up, but she tried hard to purse her lips, as if trying to hide her inner joy and shyness.

Seeing that this was enough, Chen Yan stopped there, got up, stretched, and said, "Then I'm going to your bedroom to catch up on my sleep."

Jiang Zhixin was taken aback by what he said: Strange, shouldn't he have followed up by asking, "Would you like to be my girlfriend?"

Why are you going to sleep so soon?

Are you that sleepy?
However, she couldn't say anything, since she was the one who suggested he sleep in the bedroom. She could only blankly say, "Oh, okay."

In the bedroom, Chen Yan quickly stripped naked, leaving only his underwear, and then with a "whoosh," he slipped into the warm bed.

As soon as he lay down, he smelled a faint fragrance. The fragrance seemed to be the fresh fruity scent of the shampoo that Jiang Zhixin usually used, and it also seemed to be mixed with the unique body fragrance emanating from her skin, which was as white as mutton fat. The two scents intertwined and mingled, like a gentle dream dance, wafting freely in his nose and in his heart.

The fragrance gave him a sense of peace and comfort, and soon Chen Yan fell into a deep sleep.

When he opened his eyes again, it was already 11 a.m.

Wow! I slept until the sun was high in the sky?
It seems like this is the first time since my rebirth that I've slept so comfortably until this late.

"Ah, this feels so good~" Chen Yan rolled around in bed for a while before reluctantly getting up and getting dressed.

When he came out of the bedroom, Jiang Zhixin was just bringing the prepared food out of the kitchen.

Jiang Zhixin had changed into a set of off-white loungewear, which made her look more gentle.

Seeing Chen Yan come out, she gently tied her hair up, a few strands falling beside her cheeks, and said with a smile, "Time to eat, but my cooking skills are not good, so please don't mind."

Chen Yan looked at the dining table: scrambled eggs with tomatoes, stir-fried green beans with shredded pork, and a bowl of seaweed soup—three simple home-style dishes.

During the meal, Chen Yan realized that Jiang Zhixin's claim that her cooking skills were bad was not an understatement; the food really wasn't very good.

However, he still ate a large bowl of it out of politeness, and even went against his conscience to praise how delicious it was.

After meal.

"Teacher Jiang, I have to go now, I have things to do at the company."

"Okay, be careful on the road."

"Hmm...we're about to part ways, isn't it too much to ask for a goodbye kiss?"

Jiang Zhixin rolled her eyes at him: "That's going too far."

"Okay, then let's hug." Chen Yan lowered his standards.

Jiang Zhixin hesitated for a moment, then stood up, walked to the entrance, and gently hugged Chen Yan. This is a classic example of the "saving face effect."

When we make a large request to someone and are rejected, the likelihood of making a smaller request is greatly increased.

Because Jiang Zhixin was only wearing a loungewear outfit, Chen Yan could clearly feel Xiong Qian's amazing elasticity even through the clothes when they hugged.

So he was no longer satisfied.

He lowered his head and covered her lips with his.

"Ugh...no..."

Jiang Zhixin struggled a bit at first, but eventually she let him take her.

This time, the kiss was deeper and longer than the previous two.

At the moment their lips parted, there was even...

Chen Yan extended his index finger and snapped the thread that was brimming with desire, then chuckled awkwardly, "Sorry, Teacher Jiang, I couldn't help myself."

Jiang Zhixin's cheeks were flushed like ripe peaches, her long eyelashes trembled incessantly, and her eyes were filled with shyness and confusion.

She lowered her head slightly, a few strands of hair falling down to cover her increasingly hot face, her cherry lips slightly panting but she remained silent for a long time.

The air in the room seemed to freeze, and the world seemed to consist only of their breathing and heartbeats. She repeatedly savored the touch in her mind, unsure of what to do next. She could only try to calm the turmoil in her heart during this moment of silence.

a long time.

Jiang Zhixin tilted her head slightly to look at Chen Yan, and parted her lips slightly, her voice trembling almost imperceptibly: "Chen Yan, what is our relationship now?"

Chen Yan blurted out, "It's a teacher-student relationship."

His tone was so relaxed, as if the kiss just now was nothing more than a joke between friends.

Jiang Zhixin's eyes, which had been full of expectation, widened instantly, and the confusion in her eyes was replaced by anger, like a flame that had been ignited.

She bit her lower lip tightly, her already prominent breasts heaving violently.

"Fine, fine, get out of my house right now! If you dare to take advantage of me again, I'll call your parents and tell them you molested your teacher at school!"

"Oh!"

The stainless steel door slammed shut with a loud bang, and Chen Yan was "ruthlessly" pushed out of Apartment 1801.

Outside the heavy stainless steel gate, a biting cold wind howled like a wild horse, and Chen Yan tightened his coat and took out a cigarette from his pocket and lit it.

"Phew~ Luckily I reacted quickly, otherwise we almost confirmed our relationship just now."

Chen Yan exhaled a smoke ring, secretly congratulating himself on his cleverness and alertness.

Having been reborn, how can we give up the whole forest for the sake of one tree?
Even if you want to confirm the relationship, the girl has to confess first. That way, if you get hurt later, you can blame yourself for misjudging people rather than for meeting the wrong person.

This is the strategy of a top-tier player.

He took the initiative to flirt with you at the beginning, stirring your heartstrings;

They continued to launch attacks throughout the process, accelerating the offensive.
Once you've hooked them, hang them high and wait for the fish to take the bait.

……

When Chen Yan arrived at the 102 Startup Base, it was already 11:40. Zhu Lijuan and Huang Shanshan were chatting and gossiping, each holding a cup of hot milk tea. When they saw the young boss come in, they greeted him politely, and Chen Yan smiled and nodded in response.

It's lunch break now, and the other members aren't in the office; they've probably gone out for lunch.

Because Daily Tech operates on a part-time basis, business is busier on weekends than on weekdays.

Although it's Saturday, the company is still open for business. Chen Yan is scheduled to have Mondays off, but customer service staff take turns working because there are many part-time jobs to be done on Mondays, and it wouldn't work without customer service staff.

Chen Yan walked to the innermost part of the office, where there was a separate single office chair, which was his workstation.

Since the 102 Startup Base is just a spacious area of ​​over 100 square meters without any separate rooms, Chen Yan didn't bother to set up partitions, since he doesn't stay here often anyway.

Chen Yan had just sat down in his office chair when Jiang Zhixin sent him a message.

Jiang Yue Zhao Zhixin: "Who told you to reply to my messages randomly? (Angry)"

It seems she realized that I used her phone to reply to Tang Haochuan yesterday. That's quite slow of a reaction; it took her so long to notice.

Chen Yan muttered to himself and began typing a reply.

Chen Yingjun: "What's wrong? I helped you get rid of a simp who was harassing you. Shouldn't you thank me?"

Jiang Yue Zhao Zhixin: "Then you can't just say whatever you want!"

Chen Yingjun: "Okay, okay, I was wrong. I'm sorry. I shouldn't have given up on him. I thought you didn't like him, but it seems you still care about him."

Chen Yan used a strategy of retreating to advance, directly showcasing the art of tea to its fullest potential.

Upon seeing this, Jiang Zhixin immediately panicked, fearing that Chen Yan would misunderstand, and hurriedly said, "No, no, that's not what I meant. I don't like him at all. What I meant was that your reply last night was a bit too explicit."

Chen Yingjun: "I understand. In the end, you still care about him and are worried that what I said was too blunt and would hurt him, right? I'm sorry, I won't touch your phone again."

After Chen Yan finished speaking, he stopped replying.

Jiang Zhixin became even more anxious after seeing this, fearing that the explanation on WeChat would not be clear, so she called directly.

Chen Yan hung up immediately after seeing the caller ID.

Jiang Zhixin continued to play.

Chen Yan hung up again.

At this moment, in Shengtai Times Mountain Apartment.

Jiang Zhixin almost burst into tears, holding back her tears as she sent a message to Chen Yan: "I really didn't mean that. I'll block him right now, okay? Please don't be angry with me anymore."

After saying that, Jiang Zhixin also sent a screenshot showing that she had been blocked.

Seeing that the time was right, Chen Yan went along with it and said, "Alright, then I forgive you."

Chen Yan quietly shifted the blame onto Jiang Zhixin, who readily accepted it.

At the top of the WeChat message bar, "Jiang Yue Zhao Zhi Xin" kept changing to "The other party is typing" and then back to "Jiang Yue Zhao Zhi Xin". It was obvious that Jiang Zhi Xin wanted to say something, but for some reason she wrote it and then deleted it, then wrote it again.

A long time passed, but she didn't send any messages.

After all, she was only 24 years old, just a recent graduate student, and had never even been in a relationship. When she met the "playboy" Chen Yan, she had almost no chance of winning.

Chen Yan glanced at the time; it was 12:01 PM, and the campus beauty pageant had already ended.

So I checked the backend and found that Jiang Muyun was still in first place, with a final vote count of 42003.

The second place went to Zhong Shiyi, with 37858 votes.

Third place: Ruan Yusang, 37210 votes.

Fourth place: Le Wei, 34991 votes.
