Rebirth: Starting with Capturing the Goddess Mentor

If you flip through Chapter 68 too quickly, you'll miss it; reading it carefully brought tears to my eyes.

Chen Yan was secretly delighted, but he remained outwardly calm and said, "Mr. Xu, what are you saying? I'm more than happy to be able to cooperate with you."

As Chen Yan spoke, he filled his glass to the brim again, then raised the glass and said, "Mr. Xu, thank you for your support of Daily Technology."

"Haha, no problem, no problem. When we get old, it will be the world of you young people."

Xu Feng smiled and clinked glasses with Chen Yan, then drank it all in one gulp.

Then Li Mingjie and Xu Feng continued to chat about gossip in the venture capital circle, and Chen Yan continued to play the role of a "nobody," and no one mentioned the matter again.

This is also one of the characteristics of Chinese drinking parties. Although sometimes the main purpose of the drinking party is to facilitate a cooperation, most of the time, the people at the drinking party are talking about some unrelated topics.

But then, at some seemingly casual moment, the main purpose of the dinner party will suddenly be brought up, and the host and guests will verbally agree to the cooperation while laughing, but they will not mention any details, timing, or terms of the cooperation.

After a few rounds of drinks and five dishes, Chen Yan excused himself to go to the restroom, but upon leaving the private room, he went straight to the front desk to pay the bill.

Goodness, the three of them spent nearly 2000 yuan on the meal, plus the bottle of wine they brought themselves. This meal wiped out one-fifth of Chen Yan's savings.

When Chen Yan returned to the private room, the waiter was already preparing hangover tea, which meant that the dinner was about to end.

However, Xu Feng continued to chat idly with Li Mingjie, as if he had forgotten the cooperation agreement he had just finalized with Chen Yan.

Of course, having reached the position of Director of Didi's East China Region, Chen Yan naturally wouldn't think he could forget about this matter, but since the other party didn't mention it, he couldn't bring it up on his own initiative.

It's like a jerk who promises to buy you a New Year's gift, but when New Year's Day comes, he doesn't do anything about it. You can't exactly ask him directly.
"Hey, where's the promised New Year's gift? Are you kidding me?"

This not only makes you seem cheap, but also lowers your image in the other person's mind.

After drinking a few cups of tea, Li Mingjie felt it was about time, so he called Xu Feng and Chen Yan to go downstairs together.

As Li Mingjie passed the front desk, he went up to pay the bill. The receptionist, a young woman in a red cheongsam, pointed at Chen Yan and said with a smile, "That gentleman has already paid."

Li Mingjie was slightly taken aback, then walked over to Chen Yan and said, "Brother Chen, you're not allowed to come out early to pay the bill next time, are you? Doesn't that embarrass me as your older brother?"

He was scolding them, but his eyes were full of amusement.

Chen Yan replied with a smile, "Then I'll listen to Brother Li and definitely won't buy it next time."

"Hahahaha, you little rascal."

The three of them walked out of the hotel chatting and laughing.

A black Alphard minivan was already waiting at the entrance.

The sharp-eyed driver saw Li Mingjie and his group come out, immediately got out of the car, and jogged over to open the sliding door to the second row.

Although most of these minivans have electric doors for the second row, drivers with high emotional intelligence will still get out of the car and open the doors manually.

It's not for anything else, just for that sense of ritual of showing off in front of others. Some bosses spend thousands of dollars a month to hire a driver, just for that moment of showing off in front of others.

"Brother Chen, where are you going? Do you want me to call a driver to take you?" Li Mingjie asked politely.

Chen Yan thought to himself, "Great, take me back to school. I'll save a few dozen yuan on taxi fare."

However, what came out of his mouth was: "No need to trouble yourself. I have some things to do nearby in a while. You guys go ahead and do your thing, don't worry about me."

"Alright, we'll be going now. Come over for tea sometime."

After greeting Chen Yan, Li Mingjie got into the car first.

Xu Feng then took out a business card from his suit pocket and said, "Xiao Chen, go talk to him about the part-time job tomorrow. I'll give him a heads-up."

After saying that, he got into the back seat of the Alphard.

Chen Yan waved and said thank you for your support, Mr. Xu.

Then, the driver gently pressed the switch, and the car door slowly closed.

After the black Alphard drove away, Chen Yan picked up the business card in his hand and looked at it carefully. It read—

Yue Xinrong, head of Didi Chuxing's business in Jiangxi Province.

inside the car.

Xu Feng reclined comfortably in the second-row seats of the Alphard, and casually began to speak:

"This Chen Yan is no ordinary person. He ate and drank with us without showing any stage fright. His behavior was neither humble nor arrogant, but rather poised and graceful. In this respect alone, he is probably much better than many 30-year-olds."

Li Mingjie squinted and nodded with a smile: "Yeah, maybe in three to five years, this kid's wealth will surpass ours."

Fortunately, Chen Yan didn't hear this, otherwise he would definitely have rolled his eyes.

"If it takes me another three to five years to surpass you two, I might as well just buy a block of tofu and smash my head against it. It would be an insult to my identity as a reborn person."

……

the other side.

Room 308, girls' dormitory, School of Media Studies. Zhang Jingya and Zeng Lanlan were not there, while Cai Meiqi was playing games downstairs.

Ruan Yusang was taking a nap in bed wearing a thin nightgown, absentmindedly scrolling through her WeChat Moments.

Suddenly, a post on her WeChat Moments caught her eye—

Winter has the lingering glow of sunset, just like your late arrival, always tinged with smiles.

The accompanying picture shows a girl standing sweetly under a Christmas tree, smiling broadly.

"This girl is so lucky."

Ruan Yusang subconsciously clicked on the boy's profile and found that his Moments were almost entirely filled with snippets of his girlfriend's life.

Then she remembered what Cai Meiqi had said last night—

"Make him post a photo of you two together on his WeChat Moments to officially announce it. If he's not even willing to do that, it means he doesn't care about you at all and is just playing around with you."

"Are you just playing around with me?"

Ruan Yusang's mind flashed through every detail of the past month, like a movie playing in her head.

She suddenly realized that in this relationship, it seemed that she had always been the one taking the initiative. Apart from the apple on Christmas Eve, Chen Yan had almost never contacted her on his own initiative.

He can even go half a month without replying to my messages...

For some reason, the phone screen gradually became blurry.

A single tear slipped unexpectedly from the corner of her eye.

In the game of love, whoever takes it seriously first is the fool.

So it turns out I was the fool.

Ruan Yusang wiped away her tears, took a few deep breaths, tilted her head back, and then opened WeChat, posting the following message on her Moments:

Fate is like a book; if you flip through it too quickly, you'll miss something; if you read it carefully, you'll shed tears.

The accompanying picture is also very simple: a bright red apple.

The moment this post was published on WeChat Moments, the comments section exploded.

What's wrong with Goddess Ruan?

Are you in a relationship?

[Yu Sang, if you're willing to give me a chance, then every page of my life will be filled with your name.]

[Sang Sang, the caption and the picture don't match at all.]

……

Many former admirers also sent messages directly.

"Yu Sang, is something bothering you?"

"Yu Sang, what are your plans for New Year's Eve?"

"Senior, what did you mean by that sentence you posted on your WeChat Moments?"

……

Before meeting Chen Yan, Ruan Yusang would pick out a few guys from her pool who were good in every way and keep them as backup options, occasionally replying to their messages when she was in a good mood.

But ever since Chen Yan entered her life, she has never chatted with these backup suitors again.

At that moment, looking at the messages on her phone, she felt a sudden surge of anger.

Ruan Yusang deliberately posted this on her WeChat Moments for Chen Yan to see, wanting to know his reaction.

However, those who should have come didn't, while those who shouldn't have come were asking questions enthusiastically!

So, Ruan Yusang vented her anger on these backup suitors, replying first:

"Sorry, I have a boyfriend now. Please don't message me anymore, or I'm afraid he'll be upset!"

After sending the messages, she deleted all of them one by one.

Yes, although Chen Yan was unwilling to publicly post photos of them together on social media, Ruan Yusang had already considered him her boyfriend.

But after waiting for half an hour, Chen Yan still hadn't sent a message.
