Online dating backfired? A wealthy heir begged me to continue lying to him.

Su Ruan's eyes widened.

Sister Qingqian, you're likely to get into trouble if you keep doing this.

She looked at Lu Yanci with a hint of pity.

It seems like Qingqian doesn't really care about you.

Lu Yanci was momentarily bewildered by the pity in Su Ruan's eyes.

Then it suddenly dawned on me that the bitch woman might actually suspect him of having something going on with Su Qingqian.

Lu Yanci: Let me calm down for a while.

When did he give Su Ruan the impression that he was brainless?

Pen, ink, paper, and inkstone: "Didn't you say before that you were lying to me? What do you really look like?"

After sending this message, Lu Yanci waited to see Su Ruan's reaction.

But she found that Su Ruan's phone hadn't rung at all, and she didn't even look at it.

That bastard woman turned off the alarm when she was in the library, and she hasn't turned it back on since.

Lu Yanci was powerless.

Never mind, she'll always check her phone eventually. Once she does, she'll know that he never mistook her for Su Qingqian.

Wen Yubai glared at Lu Yanci with resentment.

So what if you're from the same college?

So what if we can work on research projects together?

My junior sister is also my master's top student. When she's giving me acupuncture, you, Lu Yanci, can't even get a word in edgewise.

After a chaotic meal, Su Ruan and Su Qingqian decided to continue to the library.

Lu Yanci naturally joined them.

Lin Mo looked at Su Ruan, then at Lu Yanci.

Brother Lu, is this really okay for you?

While the rest of us were working in the lab, you, the eldest, sneaked out to date.

But Lin Mo resigned himself to his fate and headed towards the laboratory building.

Having missed out on Dingshiji's investment, they can't afford to break away from Lu Yanci's team again.

Wen Yubai followed for a few steps, but eventually turned onto another road.

His supervisor has a meeting this afternoon that requires his attendance, and he cannot be absent.

The same three people who went to the library in the afternoon were the same ones from the morning.

Even the seating arrangement was the same as in the morning.

Su Ruan originally wanted to wait until Lu Yanci sat down before making her choice, but Lu Yanci simply stood there without moving.

Su Ruan got angry and sat down directly opposite Su Qingqian.

This is a seat she's familiar with.

She thought Lu Yanci would choose to sit next to Su Qingqian, which would at least make it more obvious, but to her surprise, Lu Yanci actually sat next to her.

Su Ruan just rolled her eyes silently.

Lu Yanci deserves the difficulty in pursuing Su Qingqian, given his current situation.

Su Ruan decided to stop paying attention to Lu Yanci and Su Qingqian's relationship issues and focus on studying her information.

I'll also write a research proposal for Lu Yanci.

What snapped her out of her concentration was news of Zhou Zhengyang.

"The contract terms have been basically finalized and sent to your email. Contact me if you need any changes. I need to get some sleep; I've been up all night and can't stay awake any longer."

Su Ruan felt sorry for Zhou Zhengyang for three seconds.

I'm starting to feel grateful that I don't have to work hard or stay up late.

That's a good find!

Zhou Zhengyang is not only capable but also hardworking; he's practically a well-trained mule.

Su Ruan put down the documents in her hand and began to study the contract that Zhou Zhengyang had sent her.

Noticing Lu Yanci's gaze, he also sent a copy to Lu Yanci.

Lu Yanci is a domineering CEO type, so it's safer to let him review the contract.

Sure enough, as soon as she finished reading, Lu Yanci sent her a comment.

He truly deserves the title of a professional CEO, comparable to a top-tier professional lawyer.

Not only were all the details taken into account, but the contract terms were also rigorous and meticulous.

After making a few additions, Su Ruan sent it to Zhou Zhengyang.

After sending the message, she noticed that Lu Yanci was still looking at her.

Su Ruan then remembered that she hadn't sent the thesis proposal to Lu Yanci.

She then supplemented and improved the thesis proposal on the computer and sent it to Lu Yanci.

Then, I went back to looking at the materials.

Lu Yanci stared at the thesis proposal sent by Su Ruan on his phone, speechless for a long time.

Su Ruan saw the contract and remembered the thesis proposal, but didn't even glance at whether there were any unread messages.

On the other side, Zhou Zhengyang had just settled down in a hotel room next to Dingshiji when his phone rang with a message notification.

Out of work habit, Zhou Zhengyang picked up his phone.

He assumed it was Su Ruan asking him about the contract details.

Unexpectedly, Su Ruan sent over a very detailed contract annotation.

He only read the first item before he was wide awake.

Then quickly examine each item in detail.

The more I looked, the more shocked and excited I became.

In the end, he could only lament that after so many years, he was still not as talented as someone who had just entered the industry.

No, this can't be considered a natural talent.

These details and additions are not something that can be achieved through intuition alone; it comes from her genuine understanding.

They understand investment, business operations, and contract terms.

This cannot be simply summarized as having vision and courage.

Thanks to Lu Yanci, Su Ruan has become a super boss in Zhou Zhengyang's mind, far surpassing him.

He is rich, well-connected, insightful, decisive, and highly capable.

Zhou Zhengyang, who had previously felt slightly uneasy about the future because of following Su Ruan, was now full of confidence.

He carefully reviewed the annotated contract again before revising each of the contract terms.

At this point, Zhou Zhengyang stopped sleeping and went out to print out the contract, which he then took to Dingshiji.

Seeing that Zhou Zhengyang had returned shortly after leaving, Ge Wenpei hurriedly asked, "Did something go wrong with the contract?"

Zhou Zhengyang handed the contract in his arms to Ge Wenpei. "There's nothing wrong with it. It's just that our CEO Su added a few more details. Take a look, and if there are no problems, you can sign it."

Ge Wenpei took the contract and examined it carefully.

She remembers every single contract clause clearly.

After browsing through it, I found that this version is more rigorous, completely fixing any potentially controversial parts.

She had seen many contracts drafted by so-called big companies before, and she had also helped Zhou Zhengyang draft and finalize the previous contract. Now, seeing this contract, which was practically perfect, she was even more shocked.

"What's wrong? Is there a problem with the contract?"

He Hongsheng walked over and asked with concern.

Ge Wenpei shook her head.

"No, this contract is very meticulous."

Stanley Ho breathed a sigh of relief. "That's good, that's good."

"You absolutely must not let investors who only provide money and don't do anything cause any problems."

Ge Wenpei: ...

Manager Zhou is still here.

I glanced at Zhou Zhengyang and saw that he had a simple and honest smile on his face.

She realized that the soldier that the cheerful girl led was also cheerful.

But she still glared at her simple-minded husband.

Ho Hung-sang realized he had said the wrong thing and quickly shut up.

Seeing his wife's sharp glare, he chuckled.

Ge Wenpei smiled helplessly, "Since you agree, shall we sign this contract?"

Stanley Ho nodded repeatedly, "If you say it's okay to sign, then sign it. I don't understand business matters, so it's up to you."

Ge Wenpei smiled.

He handed me the pen.

Stanley Ho took the pen and contract and quickly signed his name.

After Stanley Ho finished signing, Ge Wenpei also wrote her name on the back.

"Please give the contract to Mr. Su. We'll be waiting for your good news."
