"Thanks."
Pei Wu thanked Shen Yu Nan. She had to admit that the design of this humanoid computer was indeed in line with the needs of the general public in contemporary society. It could not only automatically look up information and handle work matters, but also help with cooking and tidying up the room.
Thinking of this, Pei Wu glanced at Shen Yu Nan again. She planned to start researching such humanoid robots after she returned to the real world after completing her mission.
"Thank you, Shao Sang."
The next day, Shen Yu'nan prepared his most frequently worn black suit in advance and packed it in a paper bag.
"Miss, could you drop me off at the company entrance? It's a bit of a detour for me to get up from the underground parking lot, and I'm a bit pressed for time today."
"good."
Because Shao Sang cannot leave Pei Wu's side for more than five kilometers, the two of them usually travel to and from the company together. However, Pei Wu always drives directly into the underground parking lot, where she has her own lane and parking space, so she usually doesn't run into other people from the company.
This was one of the few times the two of them crossed paths during the day.
Before getting off the bus, Shen Yu Nan gave Pei Wu the sandwiches he had made that morning.
"This is today's breakfast."
Shen Yu'nan continued to prepare breakfast and dinner for Pei Wu and tidy up her room regularly, feeling that this was the system's arrangement. He could get money and also save his stagnant system tasks.
Why not do something that has the best of both worlds?
"Thanks."
Pei Wu and Shen Yu Nan usually get up early, so they arrive at the company early as well. Today's timing was indeed intentional on Shen Yu Nan's part. If they were even slightly delayed, there would be traffic jams on the road, so arriving at the company right on time would be a logical outcome.
This was the first time Pei Wu had driven to drop Shen Yunan off at the company entrance, and it was spotted by a sharp-eyed colleague who then spread the word.
Today, the whole company is talking about Shao Sang getting out of the president's car. Everyone is speculating about the relationship between Shao Sang and President Pei. After all, Shao Sang does odd jobs every day and can't even get close to the president's office. There has never been any interaction between Shao Sang and President Pei in the company.
But when he was driven to work, the relationship became... chilling to think about. The colleagues' secret speculations led to Shen Yu Nan having far fewer miscellaneous tasks today.
Even when he routinely delivered the daily coffee to his supervisor, he was met with a laugh and told not to bother him to deliver coffee again.
"The number of prints for this file..."
"No need, no need, I can do it myself."
Shen Yunan looked at the documents that had been taken from her hand and her smiling colleague, raising her eyebrows slightly.
'Great, that's the effect he wanted.'
Back at his workstation, Shen Yu'nan looked at his unusually empty desk and thought to himself.
Since he returned to Diana as Shao Sang, he has been doing countless chores every day, such as making coffee, printing documents, and running errands.
After agreeing once or twice, people stopped saying even the most basic thank you. They would just give him a cold and indifferent notification. Sometimes, it was just a word from the supervisor, but he would have to run to a popular restaurant and queue for two hours in the sweltering midday heat just to satisfy her appetite.
Although Shen Yu Nan felt that what Pei Wu said to him that day made sense, even after her soul was replaced, she still didn't quite understand the ugliness and struggles of people at the bottom of society.
Pei Wu was indeed as oblivious to the ugliness and struggles of the lower classes as Shen Yu Nan had said. She had a high starting point; both her parents were highly educated, and she grew up in a privileged family. She also inherited her parents' intelligence, making her studies a breeze. Later, she collaborated with Wei Guang Mo to develop games, and even successfully started a company. Her life was indeed very smooth.
In a sense, Pei Wu is very naive; she naively believes that anything in this world can be accomplished as long as you work hard.
However, there are still social classes in this world. It is very difficult for a person to break through their own class and move up to the next level. For example, Shen Yu Nan, a graduate of a prestigious university, is also very outstanding. However, it is difficult for him to get out of the class to which he belongs, such as his family or his gender.
Some people tried to subtly probe Shen Yu Nan to glean some information, but Shen Yu Nan simply smiled and remained silent, which only fueled their speculations.
On this day, Shen Yu'nan could finally relax and do some things he wanted to do.
It wasn't until everyone at their workstations was getting ready to leave that Shen Yunan looked up. He subconsciously glanced in the direction of Pei Wu's office, and even from a distance, he could see the light faintly on in the president's office.
He glanced at the time; there was still half an hour until his appointment with Pei Wu at eight o'clock. Then, he took the black suit he had prepared and went downstairs ahead of time.
The first to fifth floors of the Diana Building are a well-known shopping mall, where merchants are all globally renowned luxury brands. Even the restrooms inside cost millions. In addition to the luxurious decoration, the functional areas are also very complete. Naturally, all of these belong to the Pei family's property.
Shen Yu Nan had already changed his clothes, and even the red mole on the tip of his nose had been drawn on. Following the black tie that Shen Yu Nan was tying, it was not hard to see the voice-changing necklace hanging around his neck.
He stared at his reflection in the glasses for about two or three seconds before lowering his eyes.
At 7:45, Shen Yu'nan was already dressed and sitting by the window in the first-floor coffee shop.
All he could think about was how he should talk to Pei Wu later and bring up the Shen family matter.
After spacing out for a long time, he finally remembered to use Shao Sang's WeChat to send a message to Pei Wu.
My colleague asked me to come downstairs....
Before Shen Yu Nan could finish typing...
Then Pei Wu's voice came to my ears.
"Sorry I'm late."
Shen Yu Nan almost instinctively turned off his phone screen, then put it down with feigned composure and looked up at Pei Wu.
When he politely stood up and said "President Pei," he also noticed the paper bag Pei Wu was carrying.
Suddenly, the scene of Pei Wu asking him about the gift in the car yesterday flashed through his mind.
Shen Yu Nan quickly looked away. Pei Wu seemed unaware of his subtle movements and replied with a "Hello." Then she ordered food from the waiter who had come with her.
"Is American style okay?" Pei Wu asked Shen Yunan.
After completing the Shen family's mission, the system's reward was a comprehensive profile of Shen Yu Nan, including his preferences and some difficult past experiences that wouldn't be included in employee profiles.
Therefore, Pei Wu knew that Shen Yu Nan preferred American style.
The American-style sourness, without even a hint of sweetness, surprised Pei Wu. She hadn't expected that Shen Yu Nan, a young man in his early twenties, would like it. She thought that people his age might prefer something sweeter, like milk tea.
Anyway, all the young men in her research institute were like that, but Pei Wu didn't really understand men.
Shen Yu Nan nodded slightly, which was considered as agreeing to Pei Wu's words, and then sat down.
A long silence fell between them, neither of them speaking first, while the melodious piano music echoed in their ears from the coffee shop.
