Chapter 24 Mr. Zhou, do you like my sister...?
She wants to talk about this, and Dr. Zhang won't be sleepy anymore.
Many times, he felt that he was more like an emotional expert than a psychologist.
"Oh? What man?"
Chen Ci said, "A very handsome, intelligent, and wealthy man with a good personality."
“…Oh.” Dr. Zhang smiled at her. “How did this man become connected with you?”
"I hit his Rolls-Royce."
"……"pretty.
It's hard not to suspect that it was a deliberate attempt to stage an accident.
“To be specific, it was Shen Feifei who hit him.” Chen Ci continued, “Later, due to some coincidences, Shen Feifei met him a few more times. Yesterday they went out to eat together, and he gave her a T-shirt worth more than five thousand yuan.”
"..." Although he didn't quite understand why someone with over five thousand yuan would give a T-shirt as a gift, Dr. Zhang still displayed professionalism at this moment, "Is he pursuing Shen Feifei?"
Chen Ci stared at him with wide eyes: "Is this pursuing someone?"
Dr. Zhang smiled and said, "In my humble opinion, a man wouldn't give a woman a T-shirt worth over five thousand yuan for no reason."
Chen Ci said, "Then you are indeed quite shallow."
Dr. Zhang: "..."
"So how do you interpret his behavior?" Dr. Zhang maintained her professional smile.
Shen Ci said, "Shen Feifei said that she helped him fend off the soda and got her clothes dirty, so he bought her a new one."
"Isn't this dress a bit too expensive as compensation?"
Chen Ci nodded: "It's obvious that he is indeed very rich."
"..." Indeed, after all, you managed to crash into a Rolls-Royce.
“However, Shen Feifei also felt it was too precious, so she asked him this question.” Chen Ci paused here before continuing, “She asked him if he was being so nice to her because of me.”
Dr. Zhang looked at her and asked, "What did he say?"
Chen Ci pursed her lips and said, "He said Shen Feifei is a very good person and deserves to be treated well."
Dr. Zhang slightly curved his lips, revealing a smile different from before: "Is this the reason for the change in your condition?"
Chen Ci didn't answer, so Dr. Zhang continued, "You care a lot about his opinion?"
Chen Ci explained, "He is the first person in all these years to treat Shen Feifei so well."
Dr. Zhang said, "Your good friend Li Linrui, and the golden retriever and dog you mentioned to me before, are they treating Shen Feifei badly?"
“It’s different.” Chen Ci looked at him. “You just said that no man would give you a T-shirt worth five thousand yuan for no reason.”
"So now you think this is what you're pursuing?"
"..." Chen Ci coughed lightly, then said, "To be honest, I actually have quite a few people pursuing me. There were quite a few people who liked me when I was in school, and after I started working, some business partners even confessed their feelings to me. Of course, that's normal, since I am indeed quite popular."
"..." Dr. Zhang smiled. "Then why is it different when it's Shen Feifei?"
"Because nobody likes her."
Dr. Zhang was silent for a moment, then looked at her and slowly said, "Your mother does not represent everyone."
“Not only my mother, but Shen Feifei is also unpopular at school.” Shen Ci lowered her eyes slightly, and after a while she raised her head to meet Dr. Zhang’s gaze. “But I’m different. I’m lively, cheerful, enthusiastic and interesting, and everyone likes to be my friend.”
Dr. Zhang said, "Doesn't Shen Feifei have any good points? She may not be good at socializing, but she is still sincere, brave and kind. Aren't these qualities worthy of being liked?"
"But who has the patience to discover her sincerity, courage, and kindness?"
“People who really want to understand you won’t lack patience.” Dr. Zhang paused for a moment. “For example, that rich man who is very handsome, intelligent, and has a good personality.”
Chen Ci: "..."
It was completely dark when I left Dr. Zhang's. Chen Ci came straight over after work and hadn't eaten yet.
She took a taxi back to her apartment complex and ordered a bowl of spicy hot pot downstairs.
There were quite a few people walking their dogs in the evening. Chen Ci was sitting at the entrance of the shop when a Samoyed passed by and even came over to rub against her, letting her pet its head.
"It's a 'sheniu' (a type of dog). When it sees a good-looking person on the street, it runs over to let them pet it," the owner explained to Chen Ci while walking the dog on a leash.
Chen Ci stroked the Samoyed's fluffy head and said to its owner with a smile, "It's okay, such a cute big dog, of course I have to pet it, right?"
"Woof!" The Samoyed wagged its tail even more enthusiastically at Chen Ci.
After the owner took the Samoyed away, Chen Ci's spicy hot pot was ready. She tied her hair up with a hair tie and lowered her head to eat.
Shen Feifei also likes dogs, but the dogs don't like her.
She was never allowed to touch her maternal grandfather's dog when she was a child.
If dogs are like this, how much more so are humans?
The next day, Chen Ci went to work as usual, and Gao Yang also went to the TV station to wait for Li Linrui as usual.
But before he even reached the TV station entrance, someone put their arm around his shoulder. Two people he'd never seen before hooked their arms around his shoulders, trapping him firmly between them.
Gao Yang was startled, especially since one of the two men had a full-sleeve tattoo and the other had dyed blonde hair.
"Who are you?" He struggled against the two men, but found he couldn't break free. "Do we know each other? Have you got the wrong person?"
The golden retriever laughed and said, "No, I'm looking for you, Gao Yang."
"..." Gao Yang didn't know where they came from, but he was certain he didn't recognize them. "Who are you people?"
The golden-haired man said, "You don't need to know who we are. You just need to know not to cause any more trouble for Li Linrui."
Gao Yang frowned. These two were actually sent by Li Linrui? When did she get to know people like this?
These two are obviously street thugs. How could someone like Li Linrui, who claims to be a highly educated woman, possibly have anything to do with them?
"Li Linrui is under our protection. Since you're out here, you'd better keep your eyes open." Gouwa looked at Gao Yang expressionlessly and warned him.
Gao Yang felt a little uneasy, but still managed a weak laugh: "Who are you trying to scare? I, Gao Yang, am not someone to be trifled with!"
Gouwa increased the pressure on his hand, and Gao Yang's expression immediately changed.
It hurts.
"Brother, it's not worth it for a woman. Don't make things worse." Gouwa patted Gao Yang on the shoulder twice as a warning before letting go of him with Jinmao.
As soon as Gao Yang was free, he raised his hand to rub his shoulder. He glanced at Gouwa and Jinmao a few times, then quickly turned and left.
After watching him walk away, Gouwa sent a message to Shen Feifei: "Sister Feifei, we've scared Gao Yang away. We'll keep an eye on him for the next few days."
Chen Ci looked at the message he sent and replied, "Okay, thank you. You guys be careful too."
Dog: Don't worry, we know what we're doing.
Gouwa: By the way, I didn't have a chance to ask you last time, is Mr. Zhou, who came to eat crayfish with you, your boyfriend?
Chen Ci: "..."
Why are even they so gossipy?
Feifei: No, we're just ordinary friends.
Gouwa: Doesn't that Assistant Tian seem like just a regular friend?
Chen Ci: "..."
Feifei: Are you looking for him to invest?
Gouwa: "..."
After Chen Ci sent this message, Gouwa indeed quieted down, and Chen Ci put down her phone with satisfaction.
Zhou Shilin was on his way back to the company. He was sitting in the car when he saw Zhou Mingye's WeChat Moments from last night.
It's crayfish from Uncle Li's restaurant, the takeout version.
Zhou Mingye: This is a crayfish restaurant that only those in City A who know the ropes can find. Get the same crayfish here.
Below is a comment from Chen Ci: "Does the store also offer delivery?"
Zhou Mingye replied to Chen Ci: "My assistant bought it for me and brought it back in a thermos."
Zhou Shilin snorted. Zhou Mingye had been a copycat since he was a child, and he hadn't changed.
He commented to Zhou Mingye that the food tasted even better when it was freshly made at the store, and then put down his phone. Unexpectedly, after Zhou Mingye saw it, he specially messaged him privately and sent him a huge soybean smiley face.
Zhou Shilin: Are you trying to make me laugh to death?
Zhou Mingye: ...Some people are really shameless, going out to eat with two sisters at the same time.
Zhou Shilin: Chen Ci didn't go.
Every time Shen Feifei appears, Chen Ci inevitably experiences stomach discomfort.
Zhou Mingye: You seem quite disappointed, don't you? [smile]
Zhou Shilin: Didn't you meet with both of them before?
Zhou Mingye: I didn't know they were two people!
Zhou Mingye: Although the two of them are somewhat different, people are multifaceted, and I have never doubted that!
Zhou Shilin looked at the message he sent, his eyes flickered, and he replied, "You're right."
Zhou Mingye: What? You actually think I'm right? [Stunned]
Although he didn't understand which statement was correct.
Zhou Shilin didn't give him an answer, but simply replied, "Smart people tend to overthink, while fools can sometimes see the truth of the world."
Zhou Mingye: "..."
Those who praised him didn't understand, but those who criticized him made their accusations very clear.
Zhou Shilin was about to lock his phone when he received a message from Chen Ci.
Chen Ci: Mr. Zhou, my sister isn't very good at social etiquette; she actually accepted such expensive clothes from you [crying emoji]. If you have time sometime, I'll treat you to dinner as a return gift [kneeling emoji].
Zhou Shilin: The clothes were originally compensation for her, so there's no need to return the favor.
Zhou Shilin: But eating is fine.
He thought for a moment and sent Chen Ci the address of a tea restaurant: "Let's go for afternoon tea tomorrow."
Chen Ci opened the restaurant he sent her and looked at the average cost per person... Is President Zhou trying to eat his 5,000 yuan back?
Chenci: Actually, I also know a good place for afternoon tea.
Zhou Shilin: Then next time let's go to a place you know.
Chen Ci: "..."
Zhou Shilin: This time it's my treat, so you can eat without worry.
Chen Ci: Ah, it was agreed that I would return the gift.
Zhou Shilin: As I said, there's no need to return the courtesy.
Chen Ci kept deleting and revising in the chat box, but in the end she only sent a cat thank-you emoji.
The next day was a day off. Chen Ci had brunch in the morning and then started preparing for afternoon tea with Zhou Shilin. Considering the average cost per person at that restaurant, Chen Ci specially picked out a dress that was commensurate with the price to wear.
She had originally planned to take a car to the restaurant by herself, but before she left, she suddenly received a message from Zhou Shilin saying that he was already downstairs at her house.
Chen Ci: Huh? How did you know where I live? [Stunned]
Zhou Shilin: I found out when I brought Shen Feifei back last time.
Chen Ci: "..."
Was it actually President Zhou who personally brought her back last time?! She remembered Shen Feifei riding a motorcycle!
Chenci: I'm coming down right away!
Zhou Shilin: No rush.
Zhou Shilin said there was no rush, but Chen Ci was still very anxious. As soon as she reached the entrance of the residential area, she saw the luxury car parked by the roadside.
Zhou Shilin changed cars again today, but Chen Ci immediately recognized it as his car.
She walked up, and Zhou Shilin, who was sitting in the back, rolled down the car window: "Get in."
"Oh, okay." Chen Ci opened the car door, bent down and sat inside.
Today, there were only Zhou Shilin and the driver in the car; Tian Xu's usual passenger seat was empty.
"Didn't Assistant Tian come today?" Chen Ci pulled over her seatbelt and fastened it.
Zhou Shilin only told the driver to drive away after he saw that she had fastened her seatbelt: "It's the weekend, he's on vacation."
Chen Ci exclaimed in surprise, "So Assistant Tian actually gets a vacation?"
Zhou Shilin paused for a moment, looked at her and said, "I can't tell for now which of us is more like a capitalist."
"Pfft." Chen Ci couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Her laughter was still echoing in the car when Zhou Shilin spoke again: "Isn't Shen Feifei coming to dinner today?"
Chen Ci's laughter gradually subsided. She turned her head to look at Zhou Shilin for a moment and asked him, "Mr. Zhou, do you like my sister?"
