About ten minutes.

Jiang Jianian then took Ye Zhiwei to the vicinity of the Academic Affairs Office.

Ye Zhiwei followed Jiang Jianian around and around, wondering how Jiang Jianian managed to remember such a dizzying route. "I'm getting dizzy. I could walk this road ten times and still not remember it!"

Jiang Jianian did not speak.

Ye Zhiwei then asked, "How many times have you been here?"

"once."

"You remembered it after just one time? Don't you think our school is huge, and the buildings all look very similar? I used to have to go with my classmates to the teaching buildings, otherwise I wouldn't be able to tell which building was which," Ye Zhiwei couldn't help but say.

Jiang Jianian walked ahead of Ye Zhiwei to lead the way, but his eyes were always on Ye Zhiwei out of the corner of his eye. "If you don't know how to get there next time, call me and I can take you there."

"When you went to the registrar's office?"

"Anytime".

Ye Zhiwei was taken aback for a moment, "What if you're busy?"

“You’re never busy when you call.” Jiang Jianian stopped in his tracks. Even as he was walking ahead, he could still notice Ye Zhiwei. He brushed the leaf that had fallen on Ye Zhiwei’s hair away and said calmly, “Ye Zhiwei, you are more important.”

Was he flirting with her?

No, no, he said it very calmly, without much emotional fluctuation in his tone, as if he were talking about something very ordinary.

Ye Zhiwei was at a loss for words, and Jiang Jianian didn't need any response from her. He brought the topic back to the matter of going to the Academic Affairs Office and said to Ye Zhiwei, "We'll be there soon."

The director of the Academic Affairs Office has his office on the second floor.

The two went up the stairs, and after knocking, Jiang Jianian turned the doorknob and opened the door.

Ye Zhiwei followed behind Jiang Jianian. As Jiang Jianian went inside, she peeked out and glanced inside: "Huh, Ye Qingcheng isn't here, and neither is the director of the Academic Affairs Office. Only Ji Shuli and—"

Ye Zhiwei followed them inside and glanced at Yu Jingchen. She didn't have a strong impression of Yu Jingchen, but he looked vaguely familiar.

Seeing this, Ji Shuli laughed and said, "Yu Jingchen, don't you remember? He's the one who built your favorite dessert-themed hotel. Do you remember now?"

Ye Zhiwei suddenly realized, "Yu Shishu's brother!"

Yu Jingchen laughed and said, "It's only because of my family's dessert hotel that they thought of me."

Yu Jingchen spoke to Ye Zhiwei, but his gaze was fixed on Jiang Jianian.

He had vaguely heard that Ye Qingcheng's new wife had a friend's orphan with her. At the time, he didn't think much of it. The Ye family wasn't short of money, so it wasn't a big deal for a new wife to have a child. But he didn't expect that this person was quite remarkable. He was the top scorer in the college entrance examination and a rising star in the research institute. He had heard a friend who worked in a pharmaceutical company mention that the research institute had produced a genius.

Jiang Jianian also turned his gaze to Yu Jingchen. He naturally couldn't possibly know Yu Jingchen, but after hearing Ye Zhiwei mention "Yu Shishu's brother," he had an impression of him.

He didn't know Yu Jingchen, but he was deeply impressed by the name Yu Shishu.

The atmosphere started to get a little strange.

Ye Zhiwei vaguely understood why, but Ji Shuli was puzzled. She felt something was off, but couldn't quite put her finger on it. Ji Shuli coughed and said, "Brother Yu, this is Jiang Jianian. Little Jiang, this is Yu Jingchen, the president of the Yu Group. You can get to know each other."

Ji Shuli introduced them casually, but her tone was noticeably polite when she mentioned Yu Jingchen. It seemed that Jiang Jianian was already considered one of Ji Shuli's own people. Ji Shuli herself might not have noticed, but Yu Jingchen was a shrewd person, so he naturally noticed the difference.

Yu Jingchen gave Jiang Jianian a deep look, then smiled and extended his hand: "I am Yu Jingchen."

Jiang Jianian did not refuse Ji Shuli's request, and politely shook Yu Jingchen's hand, saying succinctly, "Jiang Jianian."
