s an individual.Cheng Zhimin's heart softened instantly. She felt personally valued, and her vanity was unprecedentedly satisfied. Especially when she passed by other people's siheyuan courtyards on...She could feel that Shi Yan liked her, and she could also feel that he had strong feelings for her.

These feelings are clear and need no questioning.

A mature man's mind is inscrutable.

She scrolled through her phone late at night, becoming more and more awake with each scroll. Finally, on her own social media platform, she quoted a saying she didn't know the origin of.

This is the most beautiful moment. I know we'll go to bed, but I don't know when that will be.

Bold and blunt, she found her words to be quite reasonable.

As soon as it was posted, several night owl fans replied and liked the top few comments:

Deceive yourself, someone who has been there tells you, the best time is when you're in bed.

Sister, are you still in the ambiguous stage

Isn't your brother-in-law not good enough

At this rate, I worry for you all.

Lin Zhixuan saw this comment and imagined the scene, laughing uncontrollably. With Teacher Shi's experience, she probably wouldn't succeed.

I rambled all night, and I don't know when I fell asleep. The next day, I was woken up by Shi Yan.

When he awoke, he was fully dressed and impeccably groomed, his hands propped on either side of her, leaning down to look at her:

"I have a meeting this morning, do you want to get up now and I'll drive you to work, or sleep in a bit more and I'll call a car for you"

"You go ahead, I'll sleep for a while longer." She had stayed up late last night and since the office wasn't far, she wanted to get some more sleep.

"Okay."

Her relationship with Shi Yan wasn't public knowledge at the company, and she relished the subtle feeling of secrecy in their romance.

Arrived at the company right on time, and submitted my card just at the last minute.

As the new year approaches, the Human Resources department is very busy. They need to complete the year-end summary for the department and develop a talent cultivation plan for next year. They also need to communicate with leaders of various departments about the new performance evaluation system for next year and assist the administrative department in organizing the company's annual meeting.

As soon as she stepped into the company, she was stopped by the HR manager: "Zhiyao, this is the new regulations for next year. Please take it to the legal department and have Tinglan review it to see if there are any further modifications needed."

"Okay." Lin Zhifei received the new file and opened it for a quick glance. There were still a few suggestions from the HR manager, all highlighted in red.

She immediately saw the company rule prohibiting office romances, which had been heavily crossed out by the HR manager.

She let out a little surprised sound and asked, "Is this rule not in effect anymore"

The HR manager replied without looking up, "Yes, Mr. Shi said the company needs to be more humane."

"Oh."

What did Teacher Shi say

Lin Zhiyao saw the annotation "Hong deleted" and his whole being was stirred, his eyes twinkling with a smile.

I sent a screenshot to Shi Yan and asked him openly: "Mr. Shi, was this made just for me"

She just loves to brag.

Shi Yan probably didn't look at his phone during the meeting. Two hours later, he replied: You can understand it that way.

Lin Zhiyao smiled foolishly at her phone. How could someone be like this Using such a calm tone to say the sweetest words of love.

She took advantage of the situation and continued to ask: "Teacher Shi, do you really want to make our relationship public Let the company employees know. Wouldn't they say that you are sexually harassing a pretty college student, damaging your image"

Shi Yan replied: "Under the table rules Who is under the table ruling whom"

Lin Zhicheng was very self-aware: "It was me, it was me who was so bold and infatuated with the boss's handsome appearance that I couldn't extricate myself. That's why I did such a crazy thing as infiltrating the company and using power to seduce the boss."

This is a statement of fact.

Shiyan on his phone almost laughed out loud when he saw her reply: Yingrong Baby, go study literature first.

Lin Zhiyao reacted: Phew phew phew, I was talking about his handsome appearance.

Shi Yan smiled and put down his phone, took a sip of the iced coffee in front of him, and the smile at the corner of his lips still couldn't stop.

Opposite him, his old classmate and good friend, also the head of the client company attending this meeting, Zhang Cheng, teased: “Wow, you look so happy. Are you in love”

"Well, she's an interesting girl. I'll introduce you to her another day."

The other party was apparently caught off guard by his candid admission, sounding incredulous: “You’ve let go”

Shi Yan didn't deny it, which could be considered as an admission.

It doesn't matter whether he is willing or not, he has never been dissolute.

The past two years, I haven't dated because as I got to a certain age, love wasn't a necessity. I felt that dating was quite tiring and didn't have the energy or time for it. So these past two years, if it didn't feel right, he wouldn't bother starting a new relationship, which made my friends think he was playing games.

"Going to get married Then my Qin Ma would be so happy."

Zhang Cheng's thinking is broad, or perhaps it's a common stereotype after all. After all, men in their 30s are generally rational and realistic. When they date, they usually aim for marriage. Otherwise, who has the energy to waste

Shi Yan smiled: "She's still a young girl."

At their age, they are indeed rational and realistic. But anything can happen; there's no telling what might happen if they encounter someone like Lin Zhiyao.

She was youthful, passionate, bold, and intelligent. She knew how to please people with her words and actions. She didn't expect special treatment just because she was younger, and being around her felt refreshingly easy and joyful.

Zhang Cheng shrugged: "Qin Ma still asked me to arrange a few more blind dates for you, it seems they won't be needed."

"You can keep it yourself."

Shi Yan before occasionally went on blind dates, just to please his mother.

But he's a very picky guy, most girls don't catch his eye. Every time he went on a blind date, when facing a girl who seemed interested in him, he would directly tell her: "Sorry, we probably can't continue to meet next time."

He presents himself with the air of a modest gentleman, politely expressing his opinions without being ambiguous or wasting time.

So every time after a blind date, the girl on the date not only doesn't get angry but also admires his character and integrity.

Zhang Cheng always said that under the guise of a polite and gentlemanly demeanor, he hid a heart of utter coldness.

Indifferent

It's just not being overly sentimental.

After chatting for a while at Zhang Cheng's company and finalizing the cooperation items discussed in the meeting, he left to return to his own company.

As soon as he drove his car to the company building, a call came from his mother. Her voice was excited.

"Yanyan, do you have a girlfriend"

Zhang Cheng, what a big mouth!

"Hmm."

"When can you bring it home for Mom to see It's better to strike while the iron is hot. In a few days, it will be New Year's Day, come back then." Ms. Qin had made her own arrangements.

"Mom, we've only just met. Don't scare her off. I'll take her back to see you when the opportunity arises."

Mom is too enthusiastic, Shi Yan has a headache. With the girl's carefree personality, taking her to meet parents now would probably scare her to death.

When Madam Qin heard her son's serious attitude, she immediately laughed and said, "That's right. You two take your time talking. Mom is not in a hurry."dn't even looked at him properly since they walked in.So it's no wonder she was suspicious. Seeing this text message, she even suspected that it was a duet between the mother and son, one playing the...
