I really don't want to date a girl addicted to the internet!

The black luxury sedan stopped in front of Cheng Fei as promised.

Just as the boy was about to climb into the car, he was blocked by the girl's long, slender legs encased in black pantyhose.

"Where's the gift my mother bought for you?" Lin Xuanqi asked, leaning back in her chair as if she were resting with her eyes closed.

The boy recalled for a moment, "It's still in the delivery locker."

"Go get it now." The girl's tone left no room for argument.

"Ok."

Cheng Fei quickly went to the nearby parcel locker, retrieved the package that had arrived yesterday. The box wasn't too big or too small, and he didn't have time to look at it before rushing back.

Lin Xuanqi then let him get into the car.

"Open it and take a look," the girl said, yawning and crossing one leg.

Cheng Fei used his key to cut open the tape, took out an exquisite box, and opened the box to reveal a watch that was clearly very valuable.

"Do you like it?" Lin Xuanqi stared at him with a half-smile.

"This must be very expensive, right?" The boy noticed that the back of the watch was transparent, and he could clearly see the complex internal movement spinning rapidly.

"It's alright," she said, pouting.

"Please thank Sister Lin for me."

"You're getting more and more comfortable calling me that, aren't you?" The girl narrowed her eyes.

"Please thank your mother for me," the boy quickly corrected himself.

"If you want to thank her, go find her yourself. I don't have time." Lin Xuanqi reached out and patted the side. "Change these."

There were several bags next to the girl. He picked one up and looked at it, and found a set of clothes inside, which seemed to be a suit.

"Are you really going to take me to the company?"

"What, didn't you say you wanted to go yourself?" The girl's lips curled into a smile.

"Great! I've been wanting to quit this lousy school for ages. I'll ask for leave first." After sending the message, the boy looked around. "Should I change on the bus?"

"Is it not enough for you to change?"

"Wouldn't that be inappropriate?" He looked at the girl cautiously.

"What's wrong with it?" Lin Xuanqi's smile turned dangerous. "Change it quickly."

"Ok."

Cheng Fei did as he was told, and the girl continued to close her eyes to rest, glancing at him every now and then.

……

134. Cheng Fei got a formal job.

Perhaps because the two maids had measured Cheng Fei's body that day, the clothes fit him very well; it was a neat and stylish casual suit.

Wearing the watch that Mrs. Lin gave him would have made him look perfect, if only he hadn't picked up his soy milk and fried dough sticks and started eating right after changing them.

Lin Xuanqi reached out and tugged at his collar, then nodded. "Not bad, your workouts weren't a waste of time."

"Of course," the boy nodded, biting into a fried dough stick.

"Why are you eating so much today?" The girl noticed that she had two more fried dough sticks than yesterday.

"I'm starving. I only ate a few bites of the braised pork rice from last night." Cheng Fei looked genuinely pained, as if he wanted to complain but didn't dare to.

"You really didn't eat?" Lin Xuanqi stared at him with suspicion.

"Would I dare? I was waiting for you to video call me, but the food's gotten cold and you still haven't done it." The boy ate half a fried dough stick in one bite.

"You're quite honest," the girl said, reaching out to pinch his cheek.

"There's no one more honest than me in this world." The boy slurped up some soy milk, shook his head, and sighed.

Lin Xuanqi didn't respond, remaining noncommittal.

A black luxury sedan drove into the Silver Ring, the central business district of Academy City. The cultural and creative building where Cheng Fei last met Nagasaki Asuna was also nearby.

The car arrived at a skyscraper that stood out even among the towering buildings in this area.

The car didn't park at the main entrance, but instead went from the garage to the quiet underground area.

The bodyguard opened the car door, and Lin Xuanqi got out wearing a coat and walked into the brightly lit passage ahead. Cheng Fei followed behind her without making a sound.

"Stop looking, this is the headquarters of Lin's International Bank," the girl said as she walked.

Two men in suits were already waiting in front of the VIP elevator. They greeted Lin Xuanqi first, and then looked at Cheng Fei.

Good morning, Miss.

"Sir, this is your ID card. Please also register your fingerprints here."

One of them picked up the corresponding equipment.

After Cheng Fei finished doing this and got his ID card, Lin Xuanqi lazily yawned and walked into the VIP elevator, beckoning him to follow.

"So we don't have to go through the main entrance after all," the boy exclaimed as the elevator went up.

"Why do we have to use the main entrance?" the girl beside him glanced at him.

"If you go through the main entrance, a whole bunch of people will definitely greet you with 'Hello, Miss!'" The boy imagined the scene of a domineering CEO making his entrance.

"I'm so annoyed, I'm more like I have nothing better to do." Lin Xuanqi rolled her eyes at him, then said, "Today you just follow me, pretend you're invisible, and don't say a word."

“Okay.” The young man picked up his ID card and looked at it. “Administrative secretary to the director of the investment department, so do I get a salary?”

"Your salary is the same as mine."

The young man was startled. "I'm so sorry, taking so much right away. By the way, how much is your monthly salary?"

“My annual salary is one yuan,” Lin Xuanqi smiled.

The boy choked up.

"What, you don't want to quit because you're not getting paid?" the girl raised an eyebrow.

"Not at all. I'd be willing to pay you anything just to stay by your side, Xuanqi."

"Stop with your sweet talk. Don't worry, there's no salary but there are bonuses, you'll get your share." Lin Xuanqi pinched his cheek.

"How much is the prize money?" the boy asked cautiously.

"It depends on your performance. You're still in your internship. Keep it up, my little secretary." The girl smiled mischievously.

"Understood, I will serve you well." The young man was on high alert.

"Hmm?" Lin Xuanqi raised her chin and lightly touched her rosy lips with her fingertips.

The boy immediately threw himself into his first formal job, even though the job itself was not honorable.

"It smells like soy milk." A moment later, the girl casually pushed him away.

The elevator led directly to a spacious office. Lin Xuanqi had just sat down on the sofa when a mature office lady walked in, placed a stack of documents in front of her, and brought tea to both of them.

Lin Xuanqi picked up the documents and read them one by one.

"May I take a look?" Cheng Fei asked cautiously.

The girl nodded slightly without raising her head.

The boy then picked up a copy she had already read; it seemed to be a recent research report on the container shipping industry, and the long passages of text and data made him a little dizzy.

Half an hour later at 8:30, Lin Xuanqi got up and left the office, with Cheng Fei following behind.

"Now, let's go to the morning meeting."

The girl led him into a conference room.

A group of social elites of different ages and all dressed in suits gathered there in high spirits.

"You sit here." Lin Xuanqi pointed to the seat for Cheng Fei to sit in the audience, and then sat down at the head of the conference table, crossing one leg and leaning back in her chair.

For the next period of time, Cheng Fei watched as a group of people gave a report to Lin Xuanqi. The topic revolved around the recent military turmoil in certain regions, involving shipping, trade, and commodities. The girl occasionally expressed her own opinions.

Watching the balding social elite intently taking notes on Lin Xuanqi's words, Cheng Fei had the illusion that the young girl was actually the emperor, and the rest of the people were ministers.

The morning meeting ended at 9:10. Lin Xuanqi hurried back to her office. There were four screens on the girl's huge desk, displaying a dazzling array of transaction information.

Starting at 9:15, Cheng Fei watched as she studied the candlestick chart on the screen.

This process lasted until nearly 10 o'clock. Lin Xuanqi left the office again, took the elevator to another floor, and had a meeting with another group of people waiting for her in another conference room, listening to their requests for instructions on various matters.

During lunchtime, a young entrepreneur brought his product manager to give Lin Xuanqi a presentation, or as Cheng Fei saw it, a sales pitch, hoping Lin Xuanqi would invest in him.

The girl listened expressionlessly while eating, and finally made an excuse to send him away.

"Why did you reject him?" Cheng Fei couldn't help but wonder. Even as an observer, he felt that the other party's business was promising, and he spoke with a down-to-earth attitude and enthusiasm, possessing great personal charm.

"Intuition," Lin Xuanqi said without hesitation.

"intuition?"

"Although it looks fine on the surface, my intuition tells me it won't work." The girl tapped her forehead.

“Even your researchers think this is a good opportunity,” the young man observed her. “You just trust your gut feeling that much?”

"Of course." Lin Xuanqi said without hesitation, "If you could succeed by spending money to hire a group of people to do analysis and then acting on their advice, then success would be too easy. They are just assistants; my judgment is the key to success or failure."

"That's true." The boy nodded.

Extraordinary luck is madness.

These naturally gifted individuals with extraordinary abilities are incredibly arrogant in their respective fields of expertise. While they certainly have the right to be arrogant given their exceptional talents from a young age, it's true that they are naturally gifted.

The busy time continued until nearly seven o'clock when they finished their work lunch. Lin Xuanqi had a little free time, so the girl lay on a comfortable chair to read a book, while putting her legs up on Cheng Fei's side.

……

135. Cheng Fei enters the investment field

"Xuanqi, what are you looking at?" the boy asked while massaging the girl's long, slender legs encased in black pantyhose.

"Can't you see it? It's 'Servo Control System Design'." The girl's face was hidden behind the book.

"This is a university course, why are you watching this?"

"it works."

"What exactly is it used for?"

"Of course, it's not about taking exams or becoming an engineer. It's just that humanoid robots have a wide range of applications in the future, and their status may even surpass that of automobiles. Servo motors are important components, and I need to understand the technical details."

"You're only a first-year high school student, how can you understand this?"

"I've already finished studying the high school textbooks. You don't think that just because my grades aren't as good as yours, I don't know as much as you, do you?"

"of course not."

“I’ve said it before, your obsession with grades is just a waste of time.”

“You’re right. I’ve realized that now too. I’ve decided to spend more time expanding my knowledge so I can become your right-hand man in the future.”

"What, you've finally figured it out after following me for a day?" Lin Xuanqi put down her book, a playful smile curving her lips.

"After all, whether you rank first or tenth in your grade at Yinghua University, the university you end up attending is the same. In comparison, the time saved by ranking tenth is more efficient to use to learn more useful things in the future," Cheng Fei said seriously.

“Not bad.” The girl nodded, then her smile turned malicious. “But you have to get first place in the grade.”

"Why?" The boy was stunned.

"Don't you say you're a genius? Then prove to me that a genius shouldn't be inferior to Shen Xi."

"There's no need to compare yourself to someone like Shen Xi."

"Are you very afraid of her?" Lin Xuanqi narrowed her eyes, a hint of danger in her expression.
