"You actually took the money?"
How can I not be angry?
This means that if taking the roundabout route doesn't work, he's trying to bribe people around him. She said that these people have been speaking up for him these past few days.
"So that's how it is, so that's how it is. You've never said a good word for Shen before, even when he paid you for the design. But these past few days, these past few days, you've actually betrayed me, you actually took his money and betrayed me."
Seeing that things were getting out of hand, Zhang Yanyan quickly explained, "We didn't take any money, we didn't take any money. We only said a few nice words because we received the design fee from Shen. Do you think we're that kind of people? Would we betray you?"
"That's hard to say."
Of course, Lin Wei didn't take it seriously at first.
We've known each other for over a year, so we understand each other's personalities.
Moreover, if Shen Jize wanted to pursue her, he wouldn't do something like this.
Lin Wei curled the corners of her lips, and An Jing immediately saw through her 'pretending'.
"Alright, Vivi was just teasing you."
Wang Ying belatedly realized, "Weiwei, don't tease me with this kind of thing. You scared me to death. I thought you were really angry."
Zhang Yanyan was speechless. "Don't you listen to your own words? You keep saying things like that, I'm starting to think you've actually been paid."
"I never accepted money for saying nice things, but I did take the design fee. You can't be too stingy when you take money, especially when it's so much."
"Why are you hesitant to take your own money? If that's your mindset, you'll be at the mercy of others when you go to work," Lin Wei said, frowning.
But Wang Ying is not like that at all.
"No, no, at most I'll be exploited once, but the second time I'll probably reveal my true colors," Wang Ying said nonchalantly.
Anjing suddenly became worried, "But the salary is paid monthly, so Yingying may really continue to suffer."

After all the troublesome things at school were resolved, Shen Jize did not return.
So much so that during class, she would habitually glance at the seat where Shen Jize usually sat.
One glance or two, and probably no one will notice.
When you see too much, someone will eventually catch the scent.
This time, Shen Jize's leave of absence was exceptionally long, so long that Lin Wei began to miss him.
Finally, just as they were changing out of their cotton-padded coats, Shen Jize reappeared downstairs at their dormitory.
"Weiwei."
Lin Wei was clearly taken aback when she heard Shen Jize's voice.
"Chen, you're back."
Lin Wei's obviously excited tone was not missed by Shen Jize. "Yes, after dealing with the mine, I went back to Hong Kong to handle some remaining issues. But Weiwei, I noticed that you seemed quite happy to see me."
Lin Wei felt a little embarrassed under Shen Jize's blatant scrutiny.
"No, I'm just worried that if you don't attend classes for so long, you'll fall behind in your studies."
"Yeah, I haven't been to class in ages. The subject matter is so demanding, what if I fail the final exam? Weiwei, can you tutor me?"
Despite Shen Jize's almost forceful attitude, Lin Wei actually agreed to the tutoring request.
Lin Wei was puzzled. "Why should I agree? Why would I agree? Does he look like someone who needs tutoring?"
The key question is, would they dare not give him his graduation certificate?
"What a blunder!"
But the fact that they have feelings for each other is basically confirmed.
So, I really need to reconsider my previous firm decision not to date.

In the school cafeteria, Lin Wei recounted everything that had happened during this period, following the professor's instructions.
The course, which lasted for half a month, was completed in just 3 days.
However, even after the lesson was over, Shen Jize wouldn't let anyone leave.
"Weiwei, I heard you're planning to open a renovation company?"
"I heard?" Lin Wei said with a smile, "It is indeed just hearsay."
Shen Jize had been sending people to protect her, and knowing that the other party was aware of the situation, he did not hide it. "My people saw that you were in frequent contact with Liu Jianmin and even gave him a lot of blueprints. Liu Jianmin is not cunning, and after asking around, he found out everything."
"Weiwei, if I said I wanted to invest, would you agree?"
"Ha, why are you investing in this? We're just doing small-scale stuff."
Shen Jize, however, did not think so. "I analyzed the prospects of the decoration industry. No matter which city it is, the city's buildings cannot keep up with the city's planning. Since demolition and reconstruction are inevitable, decoration will definitely be indispensable."
"Actually, I had thought about this before, but I couldn't find the time. If you want to do it, I would love to participate, of course, if you don't refuse me."
"The main reason is that I've seen your drawings. I can fund the construction of a model house. No matter how good the drawings are, they can't compare to a model house. If we take photos of the model house, make them into an album, and then exhibit it, wouldn't that be more attractive?"
Lin Wei certainly knew how to attract attention.
But the expenses are huge. Lin Wei has money, but she can't keep up with all the creative ideas. Who knows how long it will take to break even? She doesn't dare to just create things randomly.
But if someone is willing to pay—
She had done a pretty serious job with the renovation, so why shouldn't she accept it?
Since we've already started, why not expand the plan further, given a sufficient budget, and make them the industry leaders from the very beginning?
“Okay, but I’m only in charge of the design. I’ll go back on Saturday and tell Brother Awang. You can send someone to coordinate with him.”
To his surprise, Shen Jize actually planned to handle the contact himself.
"Okay, I'll go talk to him."
"You talk to him? You talk to him?"
"Yes, you call me 'brother' quite affectionately. I'll go see what kind of brother you are."
Lin Wei found it amusing. "Ah, we grew up together, he's just an ordinary older brother, don't misunderstand?"
Shen Jize followed up on her words, saying, "Misunderstanding? We're just ordinary classmates, what's there to misunderstand? I'm just jealous on my own."
"What are you jealous of? We're too far apart. We're just neighbors, we've known each other since we were kids..."
grow up.
There was something off about what she was saying, and seeing that Shen Jize's expression remained unchanged, Lin Wei really didn't dare to say it.
"Forehead."
"Why did you stop talking?"
"No, he's just a regular older brother. His family treats me very well. If we're talking about people I'm closer to, it's Uncle Liu and Aunt Liu. Don't overthink it."
Shen Jize didn't seem to want to let her off the hook. "Tell me not to overthink it? But Weiwei, you didn't give me the right to not overthink it."
"You..."
Seeing that Lin Wei was about to explode, Shen Jize finally stopped talking. "Alright, alright, I won't say anything more. I know you two are not related, but Weiwei, I can interpret today's conversation as your attitude softening. If I were to pursue you, you would agree, right?"
"Um... you should go after her first. If you're thinking about getting someone to agree before you've even started pursuing them, and you don't do a good job, I won't agree either."
