Chapter 116 Project Campaign
At dawn, Hu Baoer lay on the head of the bed and scratched Lin You's hair.
Lin You woke up and found that he woke up much later than usual.
There was a note left on the bedside table, written by Shi Jingyuan, which said that he had to go out of town early in the morning and would be back in two days, so she should take good care of herself.
During this period, the frequency of his business trips increased significantly. Lin You was not surprised, but he still felt a little empty in his heart.
She took out her cell phone, took a picture of Hu Baoer and sent it to Shi Jingyuan.
"Tiger Baoer and I will be waiting for you to come back. Just focus on your work. We will miss you."
After this message was sent, it fell into oblivion.
Lin You estimated that he should be on the plane at this time, so he knew that no one would respond.
This morning at 11 o'clock, it is the day when Castle in the Sky will participate in the project competition.
After being busy for so long, the time has finally come to test the success of their work.
Lin You finished washing up and was about to go out when she received a call from Xu Feng. He said he was waiting for her at the gate of the community and would give her a ride to the venue.
She was walking towards the gate of the community with her briefcase in hand. On the way, her cell phone rang.
She thought it was Shi Jingyuan who called after he got off the plane, but when she looked down, she found that it was Shen Yi who called.
Shen Yi: "Senior sister..."
There was a hint of loss in his tone.
Lin You paused and asked in a low voice, "Junior, is something wrong?"
Shen Yi seemed to be hesitant to speak, and after hesitating for a while, he said: “Senior sister, I got a promotion, and I want to find someone to celebrate with tonight, but I don’t have any friends here.”
The well-behaved and gentle junior student spoke heartbreaking words in a pitiful tone.
Lin You said almost subconsciously, "I'll help you celebrate!"
After saying it, Lin You immediately regretted it.
She suddenly remembered what Uncle Shen Yi said in the noodle shop. Uncle Shen Yi said that Shen Yi's condition was not right in the past two months and he was very worried about his condition. He also asked her to go and check on Shen Yi when she had time.
Lin You had no time to distract herself from the castle in the air project during this period. Now that Shen Yi called her, she suddenly remembered a question.
Shen Yi is good-looking and has a good temper. Logically speaking, he should be very popular in the company.
But he said he didn't have a single friend in Jinggang City...
On the other end of the phone, Shen Yi had no idea that Lin You had so many thoughts in such a short time, and he was still very happy.
"Thank you, Senior. I'll go to the supermarket to buy some groceries and cook dinner later. What do you like to eat?"
Lin You: "Uh...anything is fine. By the way, can I bring my best friend along?"
Shen Yi was silent for a moment, then responded again: "Okay. Of course, the senior sister's best friend can come along, it will be more lively with more people."
It is really hard to feel dissatisfied with such a sunny personality. If Lin You had not already had doubts in his heart, he might still regard him as a heartless boy.

Xu Feng waited at the gate of the community for about ten minutes, and Lin You came out carrying a briefcase.
After receiving Lin You's call, Xu Feng drove to the project election venue. On the way, he briefly introduced the information he had learned to Lin You.
"There are five companies participating in the project competition today. Besides us, the other four are all established design companies in Beijing-Hong Kong City."
"One of them is the MH company I mentioned before, which is backed by the Shi family. I also heard some bad news..."
Lin You also became nervous when he heard this.
Through the contact during this period, she has become very familiar with Xu Feng. Xu Feng is an optimistic and open-minded boss. No matter what difficulties he faces, he will face them with a positive attitude.
This was the first time she saw Xu Feng in such a dilemma.
She asked, "What news?"
Xu Feng frowned and said, "Someone from the Shijiazhuang family will come over today to support MH Company."
Lin You pondered for a moment and guessed, "Is it the cousin of the Shi family?"
"That's not the case." Xu Feng smiled bitterly. "If this kind of project requires the young master of the Shi family to step in, it would be too embarrassing for the Shi family. Even if he is shameless, the Shi family still has dignity."
After a pause, Xu Feng sighed and said, "MH is one of the subsidiaries managed by the young master of the Shi family. If he comes out to suppress small companies like us, we will definitely have no chance. But the Shi family will not allow him to do such a shameful thing under the banner of the Shi family. So..."
The car stopped at the traffic light ahead, and Xu Feng turned around and glanced at Lin You.
"So he asked the eldest daughter of the Shi family, who never took care of the company's business, to show up."
Xu Feng laughed sarcastically, "MH's chief designer is a friend of Miss Shi, so when Miss Shi showed up today, she wasn't representing the Shi family, she was just a friend of MH's chief designer."
This is the legendary being both responsible and independent.
You have to use the Shi family's resources while maintaining the Shi family's reputation.
Anyone with a brain can see it, but even if everyone knows what is going on, who dares to say it out loud?
Lin You's brows knitted tighter and tighter, "You mean... Shi Yanran?"
"You know?" Xu Feng was surprised. "Since you know, then you should know that we are likely to have a tough battle today."
Lin You pursed her lips, her eyes firm without a trace of timidity.
"Mr. Xu, I wonder if you've ever heard the saying, 'The more the enemy bluffs, the less certain they are of victory.'"
"Since MH has even chosen Shi Yanran as their mascot, it means they're not sure about this election. I have confidence in our design."
Xu Feng was originally full of worry, but after hearing what she said, he actually felt that it made sense.
"You're right. I, your boss, am not as thorough as you think."
Lin You waved his hand and said a few words modestly.
The car started again and Lin You turned to look out the window.
The warm winter sun made the whole city glow with golden color. Although she comforted Xu Feng with her words, she was really unsure in her heart.
She has seen too much injustice caused by background.
And now, they can only do their best and leave the rest to fate.

The organizer of Shanhai Park this time is not a single company, but a project department composed of more than a dozen groups.
Led by a top 100 construction company, with more than a dozen project-related companies serving as judges, the election method is on-site voting, and the results are announced directly, leaving no opportunity for any behind-the-scenes manipulation.
In today's society, it is a very rare thing to dare to conduct a design proposal election so openly and transparently, so many journalists gathered on the periphery to watch.
When Shi Yanran appeared at the entrance of the venue, reporters raised their cameras.
Shi Yanran, dressed up in a neat dress, held her head high and stood at the door, waiting for the reporters to take enough pictures before slowly walking into the venue.
When she walked to the front row, she suddenly saw Lin You sitting at the side, and her face changed immediately.
"Why are you here?"
