Chapter 15 How to make her willingly follow me?
In the evening, the student union had a dinner party outside the school. In the private room, Chen Zhan sat in the corner and replied to the message from the senior sister. Xu Anan's eyes searched for Jin Hanzhou, as if a pair of eyes fell on him.
When people get together, it is inevitable to talk about the art exhibition. As an outsider, Zhou Jingyu is now on the hot discussion thread of the school forum.
It’s nothing more than how powerful and handsome Mr. Zhou is.
"Chen Zan, you've been interpreting for Mr. Zhou. You must have had close contact with him. What's he like?"
Chen Zhan said softly, "I just helped Mr. Zhou translate two paintings. We didn't have any other communication."
Everyone was a little disappointed when they heard this. Chen Zan was such a beautiful woman, but she didn't even let Mr. Zhou say a few words. How high her standards must be.
Xu Anan tutted when she saw them like this, then took the opportunity to flirt with Jin Hanzhou.
"That's all you can see, but you can't touch it. If we talk about looks, I still prefer the president."
The fact that the eldest lady likes Jin Hanzhou is a recognized fact in the student union, but Xu Anan just likes to talk big and never really takes the initiative to pursue him.
Everyone has become accustomed to her style of doing things.
"Minister Xu is right. I also think the president is more handsome."
"Hahaha, Minister Xu, don't just talk big, you should chase her."
Xu Anan snorted twice again, "What do you know."
She can play straight and tease, but she will never take the initiative.
There was a lot of noise and playfulness during the meal, and the first game ended quickly. Chen Zan didn't drink any alcohol, but she felt hot inside and her cheeks were red. Xu Anan joked that she looked like a peach.
The place where they had dinner was near the central square, and they happened to go to the KTV upstairs to sing.
Chen Zan didn't plan to go, but Xu Anan had to stay as she was in the Propaganda Department, so he asked her to take a taxi and be careful.
She had already booked an online taxi and was standing on the roadside with her hands in her jacket pockets. In the neon-lit night, the street lights made her slender figure look very long.
She glanced out of the corner of her eye and seemed to see a black Audi parked in front of the high-end hotel opposite. She habitually looked at its license plate to see if it was the familiar string of numbers.
Before she could take a closer look, Jin Hanzhou's voice came from behind her.
"Chen Zan."
She turned around and saw Jin Hanzhou already in front of her.
In late autumn, he was wearing a long fir-brown trench coat, which made him look taller.
A hint of doubt flashed in Chen Zhan's eyes, "Senior, why did you come down?"
Jin Hanzhou: "I heard you are preparing for the Innovative Linguistics Competition?"
Chen Zan raised his voice and said softly, "I plan to follow the teacher's advice and sign up."
Jin Hanzhou glanced at her sparkling eyes and handed over a few reference books in his hand. "I've participated in this competition before. I think these books can be useful to you."
Chen Zhan was a little flattered and took it and said, "Thank you, senior."
Jin Hanzhou: "You're welcome. Good luck in the competition."

Inside the black Audi opposite.
Zhang Qing went into the restaurant and retrieved the things he had left behind.
As soon as I opened the car door, I saw Zhou Jingyu taking off his coat, lowering the window and looking at the other side of the road.
His expression was dark and difficult to read, as if he was looking at an insignificant stranger on the side of the road, or as if he was looking at the prey he had to get.
Zhang Qing followed the line of sight and saw, under the clear and gentle street lights, a girl wearing a soft ash-purple sweater, with her half-tied hair obediently draped over her shoulders. She looked up at the boy in front of her with a faint smile on her face.
Anyone who takes a look at this will sigh that this must be the best age to fall in love.
Zhang Qing saw the man's expression and felt a headache coming on. "Mr. Zhou, it's Miss Chen."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Jingyu reached out with his long hands to grab the lighter and cigarettes thrown on the other side.
He pulled out a cigarette and bit it in his mouth, then lowered his head to light it and asked in a deep voice, "Have you ever been in love in college?"
A thin wisp of blue-white smoke rose.
Zhang Qing said stubbornly, "No time."
Zhou Jingyu: "Do you think they are dating so late?"
Zhang Qing was even more confused after hearing this. "Ms. Chen shouldn't be in a relationship, right?"
This sentence "should" is really not based on confidence.
After all, that ambiguous atmosphere really leads to misunderstanding.
"Wei Qiming is sending people to monitor me and find out what I like?"
The man suddenly changed the subject, and Zhang Qingli reacted.
"If she asks me for help again, what conditions should I put forward to make her willingly follow me?"
The faint smile on Chen Zan's face across the street, which even seemed to indicate a peaceful life, really made Zhou Jingyu feel irritated.
Because it reminded him of the arrogance and alienation in her eyes when she looked at him.
The casual, chatty tone startled Zhang Qing. He looked at Zhou Jingyu in surprise: "Jingyu, you don't want to..."
Chen Zhan put the information into his schoolbag and saw the black car again out of the corner of his eye. A hand was casually resting on the lowered window, with a cigarette between its slender fingers. The cigarette was still burning with a scarlet light, so the person inside could not be seen clearly.
She was distracted for a moment, and Jin Hanzhou called her name twice, "Okay, I'll ask you for help when I encounter something I don't understand, okay?"
Jin Hanzhou also glanced across the street. The black car had gradually merged into the traffic flow. "What are you looking at?"
Chen Zhan shook his head. "No, the ride-hailing car is here. I'm going back to school first. You can get in."
Maybe she saw it wrong.

During class on Monday afternoon, a senior student from an off-campus publishing house contacted her and asked if she would like to take a part-time job.
"Zhanzhan, I have three articles here that I need urgently next week. This is a rush order. If you accept it, the price will be 1.5 times higher than usual."
This senior also graduated from Rong University. She was a senior student that Shusula met at the freshman social last year. After graduation, she went directly to the publishing industry for an internship.
Their publishing house is divided into online and offline branches, and there are many articles that need to be translated and proofread. They will privately chat with their junior students in school to see if they want to take part-time jobs to make money.
Chen Zhan likes to take part-time jobs online, so that she doesn’t have to go off campus every day and can work on her computer in the dormitory. In addition, she has strong professional ability, so the senior students always come to her privately to chat with her to see if she accepts the job. If she doesn’t accept, they will look for someone else.
She roughly asked how many words there were, calculated that it was still within an acceptable range, and since the fee was quite high, she accepted it.
The senior student happily sent her a red envelope in advance, but Chen Zan did not accept it. She could just settle the bill together after proofreading the manuscript.
So Chen Zan was very busy in the next week.
Xu Anan asked her to go shopping outside the school twice, but she didn't go.
"You're only a sophomore, working on your computer every day. You haven't even graduated yet and you've already been forced to live like a slave. Can you please treat your face well, go out shopping, meet some handsome guys, and experience some campus romance?"
Xu Anan complained in a resentful tone.
Chen Zhan pushed up his large black-framed glasses and asked softly, "How about I go shopping with you this weekend?"
"If you have dinner with me on Friday, I will forgive you." Xu Anan said proudly.
A trace of embarrassment flashed across her face.
Xu Anan: "Isn't the manuscript due on Friday? Tell me the truth. Who are you going out with tomorrow night? Tell me the truth."
Chen Zhan hummed, and said apologetically, "Senior invited me to dinner tomorrow night, and I've already agreed."
Xu Anan: "Chen Zhan, you have changed. As a punishment, you must accompany me for both days of the weekend."
