Chapter 5
As soon as she sat down, Su Hui leaned on the table and asked her curiously, “Why did you come in with Shen Yanqing?”
“…” Nan Ge stole a glance at the figure on the podium and did not know what to say.
On the podium, the man spoke calmly. His aura was very powerful. Then again, this made sense. She did not understand why she mistook him for a student to begin with.
She even naively thought that he was a senior who was studying for a master’s degree or a PhD.
She would never have thought that he was Shen Yanqing!
Nan Ge was an extrovert. When she recalled what she had said in the elevator, she could not help but dig her toes into the ground.
Oh my god. What did I say to him just now?
She wailed and collapsed on the table in frustration. “I wish I could die now.”
“Huh?” Su Hui did not know what had happened. “What’s going on with you?”
“I just complained about Shen Yanqing in front of Shen Yanqing. I even told him to take responsibility of me!”
These words sounded a little confusing at first, so Su Hui needed some time to think about them.
She looked at the confident man on the stage and then at Nan Ge, who was lying on the table pretending to be dead. She figured out what Nan Ge meant. She patted Nan Ge’s shoulder and comforted her. “It’s okay. A lifetime will pass quickly.”
“Are you trying to comfort me?”
Su Hui knew that Nan Ge had been “bewitched” by Shen Yanqing when she applied for Huai University.
For the past two years, whenever it was the end of the semester, the most common thing that happened in the dormitory was not revision, but Nan Ge’s complaints about Shen Yanqing.
She could already memorize the story between Nan Ge and Shen Yanqing.
“Hey, it’s not a big deal. Don’t think too much. Anyway, you won’t see each other again.”
This time, the consolation had some effect.
Nan Ge paused and thought about it carefully. “That’s true.”
After leaving the classroom today, it would be difficult for her to meet Shen Yanqing again.
In other words, the chances of her and Shen Yanqing bumping into each other again were no less than her winning five million in a row on the lottery.
——
The lecture went very smoothly. After that, it was the Q&A session. The students present were each more enthusiastic than the other.
Su Hui exclaimed, “This is a rare opportunity. Raise your hand!”
After knowing that Shen Yanqing was coming to Huai University for a lecture, Nan Ge made a bold statement. She must take the opportunity to ask questions and let Shen Yanqing take responsibility on the spot.
“Don’t be a coward!”
Su Hui wanted to tease her. When Nan Ge was not paying attention, she grabbed her sleeve and lifted her hand.
Nan Ge was shocked. She jumped up as if she had been electrocuted and slapped her hand away. “I’m already dying here, do you have to help speed up the process?”
After putting down her hand, she looked nervously at the stage.
He couldn’t have noticed her, right?
On the stage, Shen Yanqing seemed to have sensed something and looked in her direction.
Sure enough, her worst nightmare was coming true. She saw Shen Yanqing nod at her. “You over there.”
She turned back in a second and pretended not to pay attention.
The microphone was passed from the front row. Nan Ge was speechless.
The gazes around her were too intense, so she could only brace herself and stand up.
Fortunately, she managed her expression well and said calmly, “Hello, Mr. Shen. I’m a year 19 student in the business school.”
“Well, hello.” Shen Yanqing gestured for her to continue.
“Excuse me…”
If she had not met Shen Yanqing before this lecture, she would have asked a very sharp question to make herself feel better.
The problem was that not only did this man meet her standards in terms of physical appearance, but he was also her type in every way.
So much so that the scales in her heart were already showing signs of tilting.
Nan Ge closed her eyes and compromised. “Have you ever thought that the interview you had two years ago would change the lives of many people?”
Shen Yanqing had actually guessed that she would ask this, so he did not hesitate. “Before today, I really did not expect that the interview would have such a huge impact.”
To be precise, he only found out after hearing Nan Ge’s words in the elevator.
“First of all, there’s no doubt that Huai University is a very good school. However, I still have to apologize to a portion of the students here.”
He bent his fingers, adjusted his glasses, and said sincerely,
“In the interview, there were indeed some problems with my words. Lots of people made the choice to apply for the faculty without having enough knowledge. Out of their trust in my company and me, they chose something different from their original plans.”
“However, the business school has several excellent specializations. With your ability, you can also make a name for yourself in the industry in the future.”
“Of course, I also have to be held accountable for using misleading words at that time and take responsibility for the future of this group of students. In the future when you enter the workforce, if you can’t find satisfactory jobs, Huasheng Group is very willing to provide a platform for everyone to develop.”
In Nan Ge’s ears, his words to take responsibility for some students were no different from calling her by her full name!
For the rest of the lecture, Nan Ge felt like she was sitting on pins and needles. As soon as the lecture ended, she pulled Su Hui and quickly fled the scene.
When Shen Yanqing found the time to look for her, she was already gone.
Looking at the number he had just written on the paper, Shen Yanqing hesitated for a moment before folding it and putting it in his pocket.
...
For the next couple of days, Shen Yanqing also asked someone to find out more about a girl called Nan Youyou. Unfortunately, he was informed there was no such student with this name in the business school.
——
On the weekend afternoon, Nan Ge drove her Lamborghini out on time.
Irelyn was a western restaurant that had just opened. After Nan Ge entered, she waited for a long time before the manager finally arrived.
The interview was very straightforward, and Nan Ge had no problem with the pay.
Just one question…
“Galactic Tummy Protection Team?” Looking at the position column, Nan Ge fell into deep thought.
The manager said, “It’s the position for a delivery man.”
“…”
She looked incredulous. “Do you want me to be a delivery guy?”
“Yes, Miss Nan.” The manager smiled slightly. “President Nan said that you urgently needed money. At the moment, this is the only thing that suits you here and the salary is relatively higher.”
...
Nan Ge thought about it carefully and agreed.
After all, there was an endless supply of university students these days. If someone threw a brick out the window, any random guy it hit was a university student.
Moreover, she had yet to graduate, so she could not expect to work at the management level.
Considering her older brother’s lousy restaurant, there was not much else she could do here.
Nan Ge participated in training in the restaurant during the day. Her attitude was even more serious than when she was in class.
The restaurant was open for business at night. Nan Ge was quick to learn things and quickly got to work.
However, there was a new problem. In the afternoon, it suddenly snowed in Huai City, and it had not stopped yet. The snow on the road was so thick, she had no idea if she could drive her Lamborghini at all.
For the first time, Nan Ge did not quite believe in her driving skills.
The manager felt that it was not a big problem and pointed at the electric scooter outside. “It’s fine. The restaurant will provide you with a vehicle.”
Nan Ge went speechless.
Half an hour later, Nan Ge finally arrived at the destination with great difficulty.
This was the famous wealthy district of Huai City.
After exiting the elevator, Nan Ge pressed the doorbell. As the door opened, Nan Ge looked at the information on the order chit.
Mr. Shen?
With a click, the door was gently pushed open from the inside. A warm current mixed with a faint fragrance brushed past her face. Nan Ge hurriedly stood up and handed the box over without looking.
“Good evening, Mr. Shen. I’m the delivery guy from Irelyn. This is the meal you ordered. I wish you a good meal… huh?”
