"Mr. Xu, Mr. Shen, has the journey been smooth?"

"It's not that it was smooth or not, it's just a flight..." Xu Zhe sighed as he spoke, "But unfortunately, the passenger next to me was quite talkative."

Yao Hao: "Talkative?"

Shen Lan said: "An old lady asked hundreds of questions throughout the whole process. By the end, the flight attendant was getting a little impatient, and we were both a little depressed by the noise."

Yao Hao was a little confused: "Are you sitting in economy class?"

"Correct."

Xu Zhe agreed. He thought Yao Hao might continue to be confused, but he didn't expect that his attitude would change in the next sentence.

Yao Hao actually exclaimed: "Mr. Xu is really rare. Most young people like you tend to get carried away when things go smoothly. But you are different. You can still maintain the spirit of hard work. You really have the character to do great things."

For a moment, Xu Zhe didn't know how to respond.

Shen Lan couldn't help but laugh and said, "Boss Yao, your communication skills are really eye-opening for me."

Yao Hao: "No, no, no, this is not socializing, nor is it a compliment, this is the truth."

Xu Zhe and Shen Lan were both sitting in the back row. At this moment, Xu Zhe suddenly felt a little regretful. He felt that he should have sat in the front row to see what Yao Hao's expression was when he said these words just now, and whether he felt a little embarrassed.

Shen Lan asked again: "So, how should we plan these few days? When will the auction you mentioned start?"

Yao Hao: "For this kind of private auction, the rules are set by us, and the time must also depend on your arrangements. If this is your first time in Shanghai, do you want to go around first?"

Shen Lan said, "You can play anytime, but let's get busy with work first. I don't know much about Eureka Company and the auction rules, so you can explain it to me. I can also help you sort out your thoughts and check if there are any loopholes."

Yao Hao immediately agreed: "No problem, I will take you to the hotel first, and then bring all the information here. You two can discuss it first, and I will come to see you the day after tomorrow."

Xu Zhe: "Do you have anything to do tomorrow?"

Yao Hao: "Yes, I have an appointment with someone tomorrow. He is a senior executive of an emerging technology company called Deep-mind, and he may also want to join the auction. You may not have heard of this company, but it seems to be quite powerful."

Xu Zhe couldn't help but laugh: "Deep-mind has finally joined the game."

Yao Hao: "Do you know them?"

Xu Zhe certainly knew about this. After all, in his previous life, it was this company that developed AlphaGo and swept the entire Go community. Of course, that was after they were acquired by GoGo. At this point in time, this company has not done anything outside of the circle, and there is no mention of any fame at all.

He casually explained: "I will look up some information in the field of artificial intelligence, and of course I will also look up the more powerful players in this field."

Yao Hao was immediately in awe: "Mr. Xu, you are really amazing. Before they contacted us, even Mr. Zou didn't know much about them. You have looked up information so comprehensively and have such a good grasp of the industry..."

"Alright, alright," Xu Zhe interrupted, "Just drive, no more talking."

Shen Lan teased, "Aren't you used to being flattered?"

Yao Hao's tone was still serious: "I'm not trying to flatter you."

Xu Zhe: "Got it, just drive carefully."

Yao Hao finally shut up, and the car became quiet.

Suddenly, Shen Lan said, "Can you send the information over today? Okay, I can take a look at it tonight."

Yao Hao: "You didn't even rest after getting off the plane. Is Mr. Shen so hardworking? I heard that you just finished the college entrance examination, right?"

Shen Lan smiled and said, "Yes, the questions in the college entrance examination are too boring. I want to see something really interesting."

Xu Zhe was not surprised at all that she thought the college entrance examination questions were boring. But the statement that she would start working tonight did surprise Xu Zhe. He had thought that Sister Lan would be unable to resist and want to drag him along to spend some time together, but she was so focused on work?

But considering the value of this auction, Xu Zhe felt relieved. With such a high price, even the most girly and love-minded girl would be attracted.

So, Shen Lan should be planning to work seriously tonight...right?

340.

Xu Zhe and Shen Lan finished their dinner in the hotel restaurant. Not long after that, Yao Hao brought the information. Then Yao Hao said goodbye and left. Xu Zhe took the file bag and went back to the floor where the room was with Shen Lan.

"The hotel you arranged is quite good," Shen Lan said suddenly. "I was a little worried whether you would choose a particularly cheap hotel."

Xu Zhe: "Because I bought economy class, am I worried that the hotel is also the cheapest? That's not the case. After all, we are going to stay here for a few days, so at least we need a hotel of Xuan Ji's level to feel comfortable."

Shen Lan walked beside him with her hands behind her back, looking around.

Just before dinner, the two of them had already put their luggage into their respective rooms and had seen what was inside.

The interior style is quiet and quiet, and it is relatively clean inside and out. There is also a laundry room with a dryer downstairs... It can't be said to be very high-end, but it doesn't seem to have any shortcomings.

Shen Lan suddenly asked, "Have you been to the Magic City before? Have you stayed in this hotel?"

Xu Zhe said casually: "No, I just saw some good reviews online."

Shen Lan nodded, seeming to be thinking about something.

As Xu Zhe looked at the girl's expression, he suddenly realized that she might be wondering whether he had taken a girl to stay in a hotel before.

In all honesty, if there was ever a time when he was in a hotel with a girl, it was when he was in the provincial capital competing in the informatics competition, and it was also with Shen Lan. He got drunk after a few sips of wine that night, and he still didn't know what happened afterwards.

But Xu Zhe didn't dare to say this out loud, because as soon as he brought up this topic, it would seem that he was guilty.

The two rooms were very close to each other, just diagonally opposite each other.

Xu Zhe swiped open the door of his room, turned around, and saw that Shen Lan did not come in with him, but swiped open her own door.

So he asked, "Didn't you agree to look at the information with me?"

"Today I have been flying and eating, and the weather is so hot that I feel sticky all over. I want to take a shower before reading some materials. When I get tired, I can go to sleep. What about you? Don't you want to take a shower?"

"I……"

Without waiting for Xu Zhe to say anything, Shen Lan smiled and waved her hand, then went into her own room.

So what to do next?

Xu Zhe put the file bag on the table and stood there in a daze for a long time.

It was already getting a bit hot in Shanghai in June. Although the highest temperature had not yet arrived, he had been running around all day and had certainly made him sweat a lot. So, should he take a shower?

The question is, is Shen Lan’s motive for taking a bath simple?

If it's not innocent, I should take a bath like her. When we look at the information together later... wouldn't it be easy for her to misunderstand something?

Xu Zhe paced a few steps to the side, faced the wide glass window, and opened the curtains.

Outside is the bustling street scene of Shanghai.

The sky was darkening, and the remaining sunlight had been completely blocked by the skyscrapers. But for the men and women in this metropolis, the nightlife had just begun.

Xu Zhe sighed, took off his short-sleeved shirt, and walked into the bathroom.

----

At dinner time, Song Xingye waited at the school cafeteria entrance for Tang Lingfei who had hurried over.

Generally speaking, if Xu Zhe was not around and it was just the two of them, they would talk more than when he was around. After all, girls could talk about a wider range of topics and didn't need to worry about anything. But tonight, Song Xingye found that her best friend seemed particularly silent.

After finishing the meal and sitting down, Song Xingye asked, "Fei Fei, are you in a bad mood today?"

Tang Lingfei: "I'm in a normal mood."

Song Xingye: "It seems like you don't want to talk..."

Tang Lingfei pointed to her throat and said, "I'm just a little tired. I took a leave of absence from class this afternoon and I'm practicing vocal music. The teacher is correcting me again. I've been practicing back and forth so many times. I'm really tired."

Song Xingye: "It sounds very hard."

Tang Lingfei shrugged. "Who wouldn't have a hard time? The vocal teacher said that I was one of the best students she had ever taught. My voice quality seemed pretty good. Compared to others, I've already taken a shortcut."

Song Xingye: "So, is there any progress on the album?"

At this point, Tang Lingfei suddenly slapped her forehead and said, "Oh, yes, I need to ask Xu Zhe to help me choose songs! I originally wanted to find him after practicing this afternoon, but I forgot because I was too tired... Fortunately, you reminded me."

Song Xingye had long been accustomed to her occasional confusion, and at this moment, he smiled as he watched her take out her cell phone to call Xu Zhe.

However, the call did not go through.

I called again, but still no one answered.

Tang Lingfei couldn't help but mutter, "What is Xu Zhe doing? Why isn't he answering the phone?"

Song Xingye's smile gradually faded. She knew, of course, that Xu Zhe went to the Magic City with Shen Lan. Was he not answering the phone now because he was spending time with that cool and beautiful short-haired sister?

Fortunately, Tang Lingfei suddenly laughed and whispered, "He answered it, he answered it!"

----

Xu Zhe had just finished taking a shower and changed into a loose-fitting set of shorts and a short-sleeved shirt when he noticed his cell phone ringing.

He walked over, picked up the phone, and answered the call: "Hello, is this Feifei?"

The girl on the other end of the phone smiled and said, "It's me, what are you doing?"

Xu Zhe: "I'm back at the hotel. I was just about to look at some business information."

Tang Lingfei: "Are you busy with work again? I have something to ask you. When do you think it would be a good time for me to release a new album?"

Xu Zhe: "Isn't there a special agent in charge of this?"

Tang Lingfei: "Yes, but she also said that you have a great taste. You were the one who made the song "Faded", and she also said that the first song NIIT picked for me was very good. So, have you found any songs suitable for me to sing recently?"

Xu Zhe: "I haven't paid much attention to music recently..."

Tang Lingfei immediately said, "I understand. You are busy with the affairs of Eureka Company right now. Then I will continue to practice my voice and choose songs slowly."

Xu Zhe thought for a moment and said, "You can practice first. Once the auction here is over, I will help you find a musician to buy the song."

Tang Lingfei smiled and said, "Okay then..."

However, at this moment, the doorbell rang.

Xu Zhe held the phone, listened to Feifei's slightly cheerful voice, walked to the door, and looked out through the peephole.

It was indeed Shen Lan outside the door.

So he whispered, "Then I'll continue working, okay?"

Tang Lingfei: "Okay, okay, you continue to be busy, I also want to eat, bye!"

The phone hangs up.

Xu Zhe swallowed his saliva. Although he hadn't opened the door yet, just a glance through the peephole on the door was enough to make the boy's heart beat faster.

Of course, he still remembered that Shen Lan had been wearing a set of sportswear all day long, which was convenient for movement. But now, she changed into a windbreaker and black tights.

This is enough to make Xu Zhe certain that Shen Lan’s focus tonight is definitely not work!

----

341. Chapter 338 337 Don’t remove your buff

341.

Only Xu Zhe himself knew what a fierce struggle was going on in his heart at this moment.

A thought told him that since it was consensual, why should he resist the kindness of a girl? Shen Lan was already an adult and her college entrance examination was over, so why should he worry about affecting her? Moreover, in two or three months, she would stay in Shanghai to attend university. In the next two years, except for holidays, he would not have many opportunities to see her. Therefore, even if something really happened with Shen Lan, it would not affect his relationship with the other two girls...

But the voice of another thought, though not as loud, was very stubborn, and kept telling him that this was wrong. He hadn't settled the Shura field yet, and hadn't told Shen Lan his true thoughts. If he really wanted to go further, he should at least let her know about his shocking idea of ​​wanting to maintain a relationship with each of them. If he continued to take advantage of her without telling her, wouldn't that be fraud?

Of course, no matter which idea he followed, he would need to face the girl outside the door.

So after Xu Zhe hung up the call with Tang Lingfei, he put away his phone and opened the door.

Then he swallowed and couldn't say anything.

Of course, what you see through the cat's eye is far inferior to what you see face to face. He saw that the girl's tall figure was wrapped in a brown windbreaker, matched with her signature short hair, and she looked neat and handsome.

But under the windbreaker, the slender legs covered with black pantyhose have a unique charming beauty. The thighs are of course slightly thicker than the calves, and the black of the pantyhose above the knees is lighter, with a faint sense of flesh-transparent texture; below the knees, the black is darker. As for the knee area, a graceful arc is revealed.

Under the black stockings, there is a pair of thin boots, the length of which just covers the girl's ankles, which makes people sigh. Of course, Xu Zhe also knows that he can't always look down, so he raises his eyes to look at her face.

He saw a slight blush on that delicate cheek, and her usual cold temperament was tinged with a cool and beautiful color.

She smiled and asked softly, "Won't you let me in?"
