He recalled what his manager had told him: "You need to be observant and show your seriousness and thoughtfulness as much as possible. It doesn't matter whether they use it or not, you have to show it. Otherwise, why would they give you a chance? You have to show your strengths to stand out."

If he continues to act like a block of wood, Jiang Tian probably won't give him another chance, and their relationship will end tomorrow.

Xie Linchuan stepped forward, glanced at the computer, and tried to make his tone sincere.

"Sis, I graduated with a degree in computer science. If your work requires my help, I can assist you. If you don't need me, I'll go make your bed first, and I'll tidy up your belongings. If you'd like to take a shower, I'll run the water for you."

His tone was stiff, clumsy, and somewhat incoherent.

Surprisingly, Jiang Tian actually smiled.

"Is this your first time out here? What did Lin Shuang say to you? How did she trick you into coming here?"

Xie Linchuan shook his head: "She didn't lie to me, she just explained everything to me and let me choose for myself. I wanted to come. I saw you at the bar back then, and I thought you were very charming and mysterious, and I really hoped to get to know you."

"oh--"

Jiang Tian crossed her arms and looked at him, then suddenly smiled and said, "The things you just mentioned, I have dedicated staff to help me with, so you don't need to worry about them. Since you've brought it up, I can't very well not give you any chance at all. It's rare to see someone as shy as you."

Have you had any similar experiences before?

Xie Linchuan shuddered.

He gritted his teeth and said, "...No."

Jiang Tian nodded: "Then you are truly virtuous and self-disciplined."

Xie Linchuan didn't know what to say. He hated everyone and didn't want anyone to get close to him. This had little to do with being self-disciplined; he had isolated everyone himself.

"I can't tell if what you're saying is true or false, so I can only believe you for now. However, you haven't had a medical check-up. I just find your face pleasing to the eye, and I don't know much else about you, so I definitely can't risk my health."

Xie Linchuan understood the meaning behind her words—this woman was afraid he was dirty.

He fell silent, never expecting to be disliked.

"How about this, you can sleep on the sofa tonight. I don't think you're mentally prepared yet, so there's no need for us to make things like a game. If you're still interested in this, come back to me in a couple of days after you've had your medical check-up."

After all that talk, Jiang Tian still had no such intention.

Xie Linchuan should be grateful to her, after all, he didn't expect everything to develop so suddenly.

But in fact, he felt a secret sense of loss.

Because he felt rejected by this woman, who disliked his body and other aspects of him, this only fueled his competitive spirit.

"Go wash up and go to bed. Don't turn off the lights. If you can't stand the light, call the front desk and ask for an eye mask. I still have to work. Do as you please."

After Jiang Tian finished speaking, she really ignored him this time. She stared intently at the computer, typing something.

Xie Linchuan stood there for a while, then silently went to the bathroom.

After taking a shower, Xie Linchuan looked at himself in the mirror and, remembering the compliments he had received, felt even more resentful.

Whether outsiders are interested in him or not, he still hasn't come to a conclusion.

With a determined heart, Xie Linchuan put on his slippers and went out.

His eight-pack abs weren't hidden; he was only wearing shorts.

Jiang Tian didn't look at him, but subconsciously reached for the cup while drinking water—the cup was empty.

Seeing that the cup was empty, Xie Linchuan silently poured water into it.

Jiang Tian turned her head and saw Xie Linchuan's handsome appearance; the smile on her lips became even more enigmatic.

Xie Linchuan felt inexplicably dizzy from her gaze.

He realized he was indeed a little dizzy—

What is he doing?

Are you trying to seduce this person?

"I thought you college students just stayed in your dorm playing games all day, but I didn't expect you to be in such good shape."

Jiang Tian spoke to him calmly and patiently.

Xie Linchuan replied expressionlessly, "I'm different from them. I've loved exercising since I was a child."

He would get beaten if he didn't train, and he couldn't stand being beaten. That humiliation was something he could never forget. He had to become the strongest person so that he wouldn't be trampled underfoot by others.

"Good habit, keep it up."

After saying this, Jiang Tian looked away and turned her attention back to the computer.

It seems the plan to use a handsome man has failed.

Xie Linchuan pursed his lips and stood still, momentarily at a loss for what else he could do.

His gaze unconsciously fell on Jiang Tian.

According to the information he found, Jiang Tian could be said to have created a business empire on her own.

In reality, she is rather thin, and her age is hard to guess from her bare face.

At this moment, she simply tied her hair into a low ponytail, without any exaggeration.

People who don't know her might just think she's an ordinary working person.

In the bar, she exuded elegance; now she has changed, appearing simple yet possessing an indescribable air of competence.

Would someone like that really agree to cooperate with him? Xie Linchuan pondered this question once again.

Thinking of Fu Mingche, Xie Linchuan still didn't want to give up.

For the next period of time, Xie Linchuan did nothing but pour water for Jiang Tian, ​​because she didn't need it.

It wasn't until almost midnight that Jiang Tian shut down her computer and finished her work.
