"Huh?" The boy looked up at her.

"Did Lin come to school today too?" she said, pointing to the doorway and then mouthing the words silently.

"She seems to be outside."

Out of the corner of her eye, Shen Xi, who had noticed Nagasaki Asuna's subtle movements, also looked up, her face showing confusion.

"They're here," Cheng Fei nodded tentatively.

"Did you talk to Cheng Fei about anything?"

"We talked about some trivial things."

Shen Xi looked at the two of them, understood what was going on, and stood up directly, "That's enough for today."

"Going back already? It's rare to have the three of us sitting here together." Cheng Fei looked at her.

"We can be together when we get back, so stop talking nonsense." Shen Xi put the book into her bag.

"Okay." The boy smacked his lips and started packing his things.

Soon, the three of them walked out of the club activity room, and naturally found nothing.

"Where is she?" Shen Xi looked around.

"They ran away as soon as they heard we were leaving." Nagasaki Asuna said with her hands behind her back, looking knowing.

"Nana, your phased array radar is getting better and better," Cheng Fei exclaimed.

"She's smart enough to know her place." Shen Xi was the first to walk downstairs.

Cheng Fei caught up with her, "Teacher Shen, what did you mean by saying we could be together even if we went back?"

"It means going back online." The aloof girl said indifferently.

"Hey, I thought you were up to something?" Nagasaki Asuna followed Cheng Fei on the other side, her hands behind her back.

"Is Teacher Shen trying to anger her? That's so mean."

"Enough with the nonsense, let's go back and test the fox spirit's abilities."

"Uh, another test?"

"Nana, Professor Shen is such a person with a strong research spirit, so just cooperate with her."

"Okay~ I'll listen to my big sister."

"You vixen, don't push me."

"Wrong~"

"Teacher Shen, Nana calling you 'sister' is actually a sign of respect, so please don't be so harsh."

"Cheng Fei, do you really like this feeling?"

"Wrong."

The three of them left the campus after this conversation. Since Cheng Fei was driving a GLS, they could go home together.

After the three of them, Lin Xuanqi watched the tall black SUV drive away with a complicated expression, and then turned around and got into her own black luxury sedan.

……

That evening, Shen Xi called Nagasaki Asuna and Cheng Fei online and carefully tested Nagasaki Asuna's new abilities, including their effective range and energy consumption.

Naturally, aside from obtaining a bunch of data, they made no special discoveries and thus attacked Cheng Fei out of displeasure.

……

For the next few days, Lin Xuanqi arrived at school on time every day, although her purpose was obviously unrelated to attending classes.

The girl was listless in every class, and during breaks she would turn around and try to talk to the boy behind her, even though she was either ignored or treated coldly, she did not give up at all.

Until Friday.

Early in the morning, Lin Xuanqi walked into the classroom carrying her bag.

After so many days, the students in Class 6 had become accustomed to the presence of this young lady and did not react much to her appearance.

The arrogant girl walked to her seat with a blank expression and looked back.

The boy in the back seat had not yet appeared; the seat was empty.

Lin Xuanqi bit her lip lightly, her expression momentarily dazed.

The image of Nagasaki Asuna appearing in the passenger seat of the boy's supercar that morning resurfaced in my mind.

Her nose stung with tears. She blinked, sat down, opened her bag, and took out a carefully prepared box of blueberries.

According to a guide she found online, she has been bringing the boy a fruit every morning, even though it is returned to him without hesitation each time.

The girl placed the box on the boy's desk, turned her head, rested her chin on her hand, and gazed out the window at the playground, weaving through the students heading towards the teaching building.

Zhou Han walked into the classroom, greeting the passing classmates with a lively and energetic air. Her round eyes caught sight of the scene in the corner of the classroom. She sat down casually and whispered to her best friend next to her, "Ruan Jingyi, where did she learn this trick? It's so outdated."

The quiet girl tilted her head and glanced at it, but as always, she didn't offer any opinion.

Time passed by, and when the school bell rang, Lin Xuanqi, who had fallen asleep on her desk, looked up and instinctively glanced behind her, only to find that the boy was still nowhere to be seen.

Meanwhile, the silver ring.

The air at Real Tech headquarters today is heavier than ever.

The employees sensed something was amiss, looked on with curiosity, and whispered among themselves.

Xia Meng stood at the front desk, looking completely harmless, watching Sun Ling lead several groups of unfamiliar people into the large conference room deep inside.

Each of them was dressed in a suit and tie, with sharp eyes, carrying a briefcase, and remained silent. Their footsteps were clear and powerful, as solemn as a small army.

After seeing everyone into the conference room, Sun Ling closed the door and breathed a sigh of relief, patting her chest.

Xia Meng leaned closer, curious, "Sister Ling, are these the investors?"

"Shh." Sun Ling made a shushing gesture and pointed to the gate. "Stand guard, I'm going to get something."

"Oh." The round-faced girl seemed to understand but not quite, and temporarily took her place.

In the conference room, the sounds of the printer running and the rustling of documents being turned mingled together. The bespectacled elite lawyer checked the terms page by page, then placed the document in front of the well-dressed person next to him and whispered a reminder to sign in a certain place.

Cheng Fei put his hands in his pockets and walked to the window.

A young woman with a dangerously styled haircut sat here, arms crossed over her chest, gazing absently at the city skyline outside the window.

"Sister Yufei, thank you so much. I was really going to go bankrupt if you hadn't come." The tall, handsome young man reached out his hand to her, revealing an impeccable smile.

"You," Song Yufei rolled her eyes at him helplessly, sighed softly, and then smiled, "Thank yourself, I didn't invest in you because of feelings."

She shook hands with the boy, her palm feeling warm and smooth to the touch.

"Don't worry, I won't let Sister Yufei down." The boy smiled and nodded.

"Mr. Cheng, we need you here for a moment." A middle-aged woman wearing gold-rimmed glasses walked over quickly and said in a low voice.

“Okay.” The boy nodded in agreement and immediately followed. A young man with a Western appearance came to greet him.

Song Yufei remained seated, gazing at the boy's serious profile as he spoke with the other person, her fingertips rubbing together as she shook hands with him.

The busy atmosphere in the conference room continued until noon. Sun Ling ordered takeout from a nearby upscale hotel and asked Xia Meng to help distribute the mountain of boxes to everyone in the conference room.

By the afternoon, the lengthy document signing process had come to an end, and Cheng Fei saw the last group of people off to their car, returning to the headquarters of RealTech.

The employees, who had been eagerly awaiting the results, all turned their expectant gazes toward the space, which was so quiet you could hear a pin drop.

Under everyone's gaze, the boy with his hands in his pockets looked around and said in a casual, smiling tone, "We've secured funding. Everyone's worked hard these past few days. Let's have dinner together tonight."

As soon as he finished speaking, cheers and applause erupted in the office, surrounding the boy.

Sun Ling and Xia Meng exchanged a glance, and both showed expressions of relief.

……

On the other side, the bell rang for the end of the last get out of class at Yinghua School, and Lin Xuanqi walked out of the teaching building alone.

For some reason, the boy didn't come to school today, and because his phone number had been blocked, she couldn't ask him.

Asuna Nagasaki and Ye Shuang watched her figure disappear into the distance. The obedient girl wanted to chase after her, but Asuna Nagasaki held her shoulder down.

A convoy of black luxury cars left Yinghua and headed towards Nanwan.

Lin Xuanqi was gazing absently at the street scene outside the window when her phone suddenly rang.

The girl instinctively picked up her phone and discovered it was her secretary calling.

She paused for a moment, then pressed the answer button and put the phone to her ear.

"Hey, what's up?"

"Director, we just received a notification from RealTech."

"What notification?"

"Notification of Change in Equity Structure"

The haughty young woman frowned, pondered for a second, and asked, "Real Tech has secured funding?"

"Yes, the capital increase and share expansion agreement was just signed."

"Are you kidding me? Who gave you the investment?"

"The lead investor is Xueyuan Construction."

"School construction? Song Yufei?" The arrogant girl's eyes narrowed, and she gripped her phone tightly.

"It should be. There's also an investment firm; I checked and it's a British venture capital firm." The sound of turning pages came from the other end.

"Huh? From Britain?" Lin Xuanqi's expression became even more puzzled.

"Yes, the Kong family also invested, as did a few smaller ones."

"And the Kong family?" Lin Xuanqi murmured to herself, her heart racing. She quickly asked, "How much did they invest in total?"

"A total of 2.3 billion."

The haughty girl's eyes widened slightly, "So fast..."

"Director, should I send you the documents now?" The secretary on the other end sensed something and her tone became cautious.

"Not for now," Lin Xuanqi said softly, and then hung up the phone.

921. Cheng Fei's net worth skyrocketed again.

When Lin Xuanqi returned to South Bay, she still had her secretary send over the notification letter.

The haughty young woman sat alone on the sofa in her room, browsing documents on her tablet.

"With your trust and support, the company has officially completed its Series A financing. The lead investor in this round was Xueyuan Construction Investment Fund, with follow-on investments from Cambridge United Fund, Kong's Venture Capital, and Deep Blue Vision Capital..."

After reviewing the list of all the organizations, she leaned back on the sofa, pinched her brow, and took a deep breath.

……

Meanwhile, the silver ring.

Two strikingly beautiful young women arrived at the headquarters of Real Technology, next to the upscale hotel.

As soon as Shen Xi entered the bustling little restaurant, she saw a large red banner hanging on the wall that read "Warmly celebrate the successful Series A financing of RealTech".

The cool, aloof girl's face showed a hint of disdain. "It's obviously that lousy person's taste."

"It's good to have some liveliness at times like this," Nagasaki Asuna said, tilting her head with her hands behind her back.

A familiar voice called out from not far away, "Miss Nagasaki, over here!"

In a booth in a corner of the restaurant, Milian raised her arm and waved to the two of them, while Zhou Han and Ruan Jingyi were enjoying the desserts at the buffet.

In the storyline, the blonde girl is an investment representative, and the other two are also employees, so they all came.

After Nagasaki Asuna sat down next to Zhou Han, Miriam eagerly pushed the plate in front of her, "Miss Nagasaki, please try this lobster."

"Thank you." The sweet girl nodded politely.

Shen Xi didn't sit down, her eyes narrowed as she scanned her surroundings. "Where's Cheng Fei?"
