Chapter 46 What's meant to happen won't happen.
Qin Nianke raised an eyebrow. "Come on, Teacher Qin's class is in session. Did you notice the gold lucky cat sticker tucked behind his phone case?"
Yan Buyu nodded, as if glancing at it briefly, "And then?"
Qin Nianke took out her phone and searched for it. "Look at this, actually more girls buy it, especially the cute version with a bow."
The target audience for this product is girls.
Even if a boy were to choose, he wouldn't pick such a cute one, since there are clearly more androgynous versions available.
"That means he didn't buy that phone sticker himself; it was a gift from a girl," Yan Buyu concluded.
“Not only that,” Qin Nianke pouted. “According to my analysis, his phone case and phone charm were gifts from girls, but I don’t know if they are the same ones.”
"Oh!" Yan Buyu exclaimed in surprise, "He still has a small rubber band on his wrist!"
“Look!” Qin Nianke spread her hands. “If all these things were made by the same girl, then what’s the difference between this and being in a relationship? But he says he’s single.”
Pretending to be single when you have a partner is a sign of a jerk.
If these items were made by many girls, it means he's a scumbag who casts a wide net.
"I've really learned a lot from Teacher Qin." Yan Buyu looked at Qin Nianke with utmost respect.
"That's right. When you have a boyfriend in the future, you must bring him to me first. I'm his future mother-in-law." Qin Nianke touched up her makeup in front of the mirror. "I think Lu Yun is not bad. At least he doesn't have as many philandering affairs as Xie Yi."
"I'm not thinking about dating for now. If it weren't for a certain lady going to meet a skinny guy today, I wouldn't even have gone to eat with him." Yan Buyu glanced at her sideways, "Don't cause me any trouble in the future."
Qin Nianke replied without any hesitation, "Hehe, we're sisters."
Yan Buyu received several more WeChat messages on his phone from Lu Yun.
She glanced at it only once before turning her phone to silent and focusing on the lesson.
She was different from Qin Nian; she couldn't take the living expenses and tuition fees given to her by the Shen family for granted.
She must learn something useful and have a job that can support her after graduation to be worthy of them.
After afternoon classes ended, Yan Buyu woke Qin Nianke up.
"We're going to your cousin's for dinner tonight. I'm going to my older brother's place first. You'll come with me, and we can go together later?"
Qin Nianke thought about it carefully, "Is your older brother still that serious now?"
"It's alright," Yan Buyu thought carefully for a moment, "To be honest, I had a prejudice against him before, but after spending time with him this time, I found that he is actually a very nice person, he just doesn't like to joke around."
"I think I'm not going. I prefer guys who are a bit humorous. I'm a little scared of your older brother, who's such a rigid old man."
Yan Buyu frowned. "My older brother isn't old at all! He's the same age as your cousin, okay? And he's not that old-fashioned either."
Qin Nianke opened her mouth and said, "Fine, you used to forbid me from talking about my brother, but now even he's starting to protect him."
"Okay, I'm off now. The driver is here to pick me up. I'm going home to have a spa treatment with my mom. See you tonight."
"Bye-bye." Yan waved to her without saying a word.
When she arrived at the next street, Gu Feng was waiting for her in his car. Seeing her come over, he smiled and opened the car door, "Miss Yan."
"Thanks."
After getting into the car, Gu Feng, who was sitting in the passenger seat, turned his head and said, "Miss, it's actually not a big deal to drive to the school gate to pick you up in the future. I just drove around there, and there were quite a few cars picking up children at the gate."
"I'll think about it," Yan Buyu smiled. "Is Big Brother still busy?"
"Yes, Mr. Shen has a multinational meeting this afternoon, and it's not over yet."
Yan Buyu glanced at the time; it was already 5 PM. It hadn't been easy.
Upon arriving at the company, Gu Feng led her to Shen Yanzhou's office. "Miss Yan, Mr. Shen said you should wait here for him. There is some tea and refreshments prepared for you inside."
Yan Buyu stood at the door, looking wary. "Is this Big Brother's office?"
"Yes, miss."
"Could I wait somewhere else?" Yan Buyu took a step back. "Aren't there a lot of confidential documents inside? It wouldn't be appropriate for me to be in there by myself, would it?"
Gu Feng was taken aback at first, then couldn't help but laugh, "It's alright, Miss, confidential documents won't be kept in the open. President Shen's computer is password protected."
Having said all that, it would seem pretentious for her to say anything more.
After finishing his meeting, Shen Yanzhou rubbed his temples wearily as he came out. Seeing Gu Feng standing outside the door, he asked, "Has Bu Yu come to pick you up?"
“Yes, Mr. Shen,” Gu Feng said with a smile, “Miss Yan just refused to come into your office to wait for you no matter what she said.”
Chen Yanzhou paused, "What?"
He then explained, "Ms. Yan is worried that there are confidential documents in your office."
Shen Yanzhou understood, and a beautiful smile appeared on his lips. His sister was truly sensible.
Pushing open the office door, you see a small, silent man sitting upright on the sofa reading a book, directly opposite the reception area.
I glanced at the table, took two bites of the cake, and drank half a glass of juice.
"Big brother!" Yan Buyu stood up with a smile. "You've finished your meeting?"
"Please sit down." Shen Yanzhou walked over and sat down next to her. "What book are you reading?"
"I've only just started reading 'The Snowball'," Yan Buyu said, glancing at the cover.
"Want to be the next Buffett?" Shen Yanzhou asked with a smile.
"It's just something to pass the time," Yan Buyu said a little embarrassedly as he put the book away. "When are we going over?"
"Let me change my clothes. I'm meeting Jingxu at seven o'clock."
Shen Yanzhou's office has a lounge where he keeps several suits and several sets of casual clothes.
He went inside and changed into casual clothes. Seeing that it was almost time, he took his sister straight to Si Jingxu's residence.
On the way, he talked to Yan Buyu about investment again, saying, "You need to have a long-term vision. You need to read more current affairs, politics and economic news, both domestic and foreign. Don't underestimate any news that is broadcast. A single sentence can determine the life or death of an industry."
Yan Buyu listened attentively and said, "I understand, brother."
Si Jingxu changed his clothes early and waited at home.
I keep checking my watch and then my phone.
I didn't receive a reply to the message I sent to Yan Buyu, and I don't know if there will be any other issues.
"Sir, Miss Qin has arrived." The butler spoke cautiously, noticing Si Jingxu's unpleasant expression.
Sure enough, Si Jingxu's expression worsened.
What should come doesn't.
Qin Nianke also felt awkward. What was the point of her having a meal with Si Jingxu? If it weren't for Yan Buyu coming, she wouldn't have brought him to his house even if she had to turn against her parents.
"Cousin," Qin Nianke greeted softly.
"Sit down," Si Jingxu said coldly.
"Buyu and her brother haven't arrived yet?" Qin Nianke said, taking out her phone. She didn't want to be alone with her scary cousin. "I'll give her a call."
Si Jingxu's expression softened, and he didn't stop it.
Qin Nianke tried calling and messaging, but the other party didn't answer. "That's strange. They're not even answering my calls. Did they lose their phone?"
