"Am I that kind of person?" Shen Yi asked rhetorically.
They look so alike!
However, in Shang Xian's opinion, he certainly had the right to be arrogant. If she had achieved this level of success at Shen Yi's age, she might have been even more arrogant than him, able to walk around the streets with impunity.
【You're really mistaken. I'm not arrogant at all. Do you hear my name often in Licheng?】
Shang Xian always felt that Shen Yi's tone of voice was a little... cute?
What's going on...?
That's a truly devilish idea.
No, that just means you're low-key, the type who doesn't speak up until it's done, then makes a big splash.
Shen Yi didn't really agree with her statement, after all, no one in Licheng dared to mess with him.
"Speaking of which, I think I heard your name back in college, and it was something that caused a sensation throughout Licheng, but I didn't know anything about it back then." At this point, she had to clarify that it wasn't that she wasn't interested in gossip, but rather that it wasn't allowed at the time…
Shit! Who knows how she was behaving like a ghost all the time when she was working on her graduation project in college? Li Ci almost thought she was possessed.
She studied animation design, and her graduation project was to create an animated short. She was going bald from worrying all the time, sitting in front of her laptop all day long, revising character designs and scripts, drawing like crazy, and as a result, she lost her hair...
If Li Ci hadn't been sending her all sorts of tonics every day to help her stay alive, she probably would have died suddenly at home.
Shang's parents happened to be traveling during that time, and Li Ci, who had been freeloading at her house, started bringing her food and drinks instead. He even took time out of his busy work schedule to come and keep her company. Where can you find such a childhood sweetheart?
Shen Yi thought for a moment before he remembered why he had gained a foothold in Licheng, why no one dared to offend him, and why he was able to hold the top position in the business district.
The story goes back to when he was twenty-one and had just graduated. His family was a large and influential family, but it was a family that couldn't be explained in just a few words. Living in that kind of grand mansion, which was like a deep palace, his personality and temperament were greatly influenced. He became too smooth and calmly smooth.
This is terrifying.
Even if developing his career in Licheng was going against his family, he had no choice but to make himself stronger. When he first graduated, he did have a lot of capital, coupled with his unique business acumen. The new company he founded at the age of 21 even surpassed the family business at one point. Naturally, his father suppressed him to prevent Shenyi from surpassing him. It was not only the pressure from the family, but also the pressure from all the companies, big and small, in Licheng. Overnight, Shenyi was pushed to the forefront.
Everyone was mocking Shen Yi, this newcomer, but the reality was completely different from what they thought. In just one night, the entire business district of Licheng underwent earth-shattering changes. Those companies that had been trying to overpower him eventually ended up going bankrupt due to financial loopholes. The name Shen Yi became a legend in the business district.
That was also the first time he noticed Li Ci. Everyone in the business world was trying to suppress him, especially the top five in the business world back then. Li Ci had always been firmly in second place, but it was a bit strange that he was so steady. Yes, he was curious too, but later he thought that this was Li Ci's strength. The nail that sticks out gets hammered down. Li Ci chose to be second. Although being second for a long time doesn't sound good, it was undoubtedly the safest position.
The tactic of keeping a low profile, and being extremely low-profile, was something I learned from Li Ci.
