Reborn in the Millennium, What to Do When Returning to the Mountains at the Start?

Before her rebirth, Shen Xuewei was over thirty years old. After seven years of estrangement from her family and many years of hard work, she finally had her own small home.

After her rebirth...

Chapter 371 Two Possibilities

Chapter 371 Two Possibilities

A man quickly caught up with her from behind and handed her a business card.

“Ms. Shen, excuse me for interrupting. I am Wang Xiuqi, the chairman and founder of Wudao Interactive Entertainment.”

"I don't know if I can take up a little of your time, let's talk in detail. Songyun said that you and she are good friends, so you may have heard of me."

Shen Xuewei stopped in her tracks, turned her head and glanced at him, sizing up the man who had captivated Lü Songyun and made her willing to give everything for him.

He just looked a bit refined, and the two of them had no interaction. Stopping her so abruptly didn't seem like a good guy.

Shen Xuewei heard a series of bad things about this guy from Lü Zhuyin, and had a mostly negative opinion of him, so her impression of him wasn't good.

She didn't intend to take his business card, and only said something indifferently.

"I don't know him/her, I've never heard of him/her, please don't block my way, thank you."

He watched as Shen Xuewei took a step and continued walking, completely ignoring him.

Wang Xiuqi was not discouraged, but still followed him around like a shadow.

"Miss Chen, I'm so sorry to have taken up your time. It's alright if we didn't know each other before; look, we've met now, haven't we?"

"I apologize for bothering you. I imagine you've heard of Wudao Interactive Entertainment from Songyun; we're a game development company..."

"I heard that Miss Shen has started an investment company and is looking to invest in some promising projects. I wonder if she's interested in our Wudao Interactive Entertainment? If you're willing to invest, our games will bring you substantial returns once they're released..."

"Weiwei, you're back?"

Wang Xiuqi's eloquent introduction was interrupted by Lian Jinian, who had rushed over.

He learned that Shen Xuewei had taken a flight back this morning, and calculated that she would be back at school around this time.

I had just jogged from the dormitory when I saw Shen Xuewei enter the school gate with annoyance on her face, accompanied by a chattering man.

Noticing that Shen Xuewei seemed unhappy, he glared at Wang Xiuqi and stepped forward to push him aside.

When he noticed that Shen Xuewei's expression had relaxed, he knew he had done the right thing.

Wang Xiuqi cursed inwardly at this brat who had appeared out of nowhere, but he could also see that Shen Xuewei and he had a close relationship, so he suppressed the rising resentment.

He adjusted his glasses, then turned to Shen Xuewei's other side and eagerly introduced her:

“Ms. Shen, you really should consider our project. The benefits it will bring you in the future are enormous and sustainable. If you miss it, you will definitely regret it in the future.”

Lian Jinian took the things from Shen Xuewei's hands. Hearing Wang Xiuqi's confident words, she raised her hand to interrupt him.

“Chairman Wang, this isn’t how you attract investment. And don’t tell me you’re someone’s friend. I only value practical benefits and sincerity.”

"If it's a good project, I won't refuse it; anyone can make empty promises."

"If you want me to invest, at least send your business plan, your company information, and so on to my company email address first."

"Okay, I'll vote; if not, it won't matter who votes."

"You don't need to follow me. I'm not in the mood to listen to what you have to say right now. If you say another word, I promise I'll blacklist you and your company."

Wang Xiuqi stopped where he was and did not follow him any further.

Only after Shen Xuewei and her companion had walked several dozen steps forward did he call out, somewhat unwillingly:

"Ms. Shen, please check your email when you have some time. What you just mentioned has been sent to Tuojie's company email address."

The document was sent a few days ago. If he hadn't been waiting for a reply, he wouldn't have rushed to the school to confront people!

There are generally two possibilities if you don't receive a reply: one is that others don't think the project has any future.

Another one is...

Shen Xuewei raised her hand to brush away the strands of hair that were obscuring her eyes and quickened her pace.

Her investment company didn't have any employees at all; she was the only one in charge.

She's been busy with all sorts of things lately and hasn't even checked her email. She had no idea someone would send her information asking her to invest.

She really didn't expect that someone would actually come to her little-known company to invest.

Even a fool would know that it must have been Lü Songyun who told him.

Lian Jinian walked forward a bit, using his body to block the glaring sunlight from reaching Shen Xuewei.

"Weiwei, let me walk you back to your dorm. Are you free next Friday night? Can you come watch me play basketball?"

His eyes were expectant, and his tone carried a hint of inexplicable nervousness.

Shen Xuewei thought about it and agreed.

"OK."

I spent two days in Guangzhou and returned on July 1st.

Over the next week, all subjects took their exams one after another. The subject with the latest exam time was finished on Friday afternoon, after which I was able to have some free time to deal with the backlog of things.

She did have time to go on Friday night, so she readily agreed.

Upon hearing Shen Xuewei's agreement, Lian Jinian's smile became excessively bright.

"Okay, then I'll be waiting for you."

Shen Xuewei teased him, "It's just that you agreed to watch me play basketball, is it really that big of a deal?"

Lian Jinian answered earnestly, "I am happy. I cherish every moment we have spent together."

After saying this, seeing Shen Xuewei looking up at him, he awkwardly turned his head away, his reddened ear tips particularly eye-catching.

The warm yet slightly shy gaze and tone, coupled with the good looks of the person speaking, made Shen Xuewei feel genuinely pleased.

It was lunchtime, so the two of them went to the canteen together for a meal.

Lian Jinian told Shen Xuewei to find a seat first. He got food for two people without any trouble and quickly returned from the long line, placing the food in front of Shen Xuewei.

After leaving the cafeteria, he escorted Shen Xuewei to her dormitory building and returned the bag he had been carrying to her.

Shen Xuewei gave him a portion, and the two chatted downstairs for a while longer.

Several minutes passed, and Lian Jinian still showed no sign of leaving. The girls coming and going in the dormitory building kept looking in this direction.

Shen Xuewei coughed lightly, "Alright, don't you have a habit of taking a nap? You can go back now, I'm going back to my dorm."

"Okay, I'll go back."

Shen Xuewei turned around first and slowly walked up the stairs, followed by Lian Jinian.

Back in the dormitory, only Lu Jiayi was there; Huang Xin and Su Shu usually wouldn't be back at this time.

Lu Jiayi kept her eyes glued to the book, but managed to steal a glance at Shen Xuewei.

"You're back! Did you have fun in Huacheng?"

Shen Xuewei smiled and said, "It's alright. Let's go together sometime."

Lu Jiayi wanted to talk to Shen Xuewei more, but her time was too precious. She only chatted with Shen Xuewei for a few minutes before falling silent and turning her attention back to her textbook.

People who pursue double degrees are always this busy, not to mention she has two elderly people to take care of.

I could only study and review whenever I had free time, hoping to avoid failing and finish the exams smoothly.
