Chapter 109 I suspect he did it on purpose
When the topic of her relationship with Gu Lei came up, Su Qianqian lost all her energy.
"Um?"
Ning Shuyin had a bad feeling: "What's going on?"
"Hey, what's going on? There's nothing going on!" Su Qianqian grabbed a cushion and buried her head in it sadly.
"..." She mumbled something under her pillow.
Ning Shuyin practically dragged her best friend out from under the pillow: "What's wrong? Tell me."
"..." Su Qianqian mumbled something else.
Ning Shuyin roughly understood what she meant.
They lived together for three days, but didn't even kiss, let alone engage in any other intimate acts.
"Are you being too... reserved?" Ning Shuyin asked a little shyly.
Su Qianqian bit her lip: "Waaaaah... No way."
I don't know if this counts as an admission or a denial.
Finally, after a long talk in bed, Ning Shuyin came to a conclusion.
Su Qianqian created every possible opportunity.
The first rule of the interstellar woman's code: If you set your sights on a man, act decisively. Hesitation leads to defeat, passivity leads to being left behind.
She "accidentally" knocked over a water glass while chatting, "forgot" to bring a towel or a change of clothes when taking a shower, and ran to Gu Lei's door at night with a pillow in her arms, saying she had a nightmare.
As a result, Gu Lei was like a perfect gentleman god. Polite, gentle, and considerate, but never overstepping boundaries, a purity so pure it was outrageous.
Ning Shuyin felt once again that her KPIs were in danger! No, she had to do something.
Three days later.
Ning Shuyin was holed up in her small apartment. She turned on her personal terminal and, using Situ Linchen's identity card, made a reservation at the most expensive rooftop garden restaurant in Zone 7 of Planet A.
"It needs to be romantic and have the right atmosphere. It needs to be love at first sight, so irresistible that you can't help but kiss it."
Then, she opened the Hyperdimensional Ledger client and connected to a brand new black-box operator.
I just received this yesterday.
The logistics robot carried two exquisite black boxes, each bearing the Royal Hospital's emblem.
A card was attached to the box: "Special customization for Miss Ning: Black Box Operator V9, the latest quantum computer, and an S-class pure white combat suit. All are in beta testing with the latest technology; please use with caution. Of course, I believe you won't be afraid of danger. —Loran"
Ning Shuyin: "..."
System integration assists in the search.
“Find me a spare commercial satellite projection system,” Ning Shuyin said.
The operator screen flashed. Five minutes later, a resource node with no bidders appeared.
Ning Shuyin's eyes lit up, and she quickly made a reservation. She paused for a moment after being redirected to the payment page.
Since there were no other bidders, any amount could be paid. She entered it without hesitation.
Payment: 1 Star Coin.
Transaction successful.
A holographic projection system for a commercial satellite was rented for just one Star Coin.
She wanted to use it to create a surprise "private light show" for Su Qianqian and Gu Lei at that top-notch restaurant.
Light show theme: Countless pink hearts - romantic, unique, and hard to leave without touching them.
That evening, at the rooftop restaurant in the Sky Garden.
Su Qianqian and Gu Lei were having a meal by the window. They were chatting and laughing.
Suddenly, a pink hue flashed across the curtain wall of a distant building.
"What's that?" Su Qianqian pointed to the building in the distance.
Gu Lei squinted and shook his head: "It's too far away, I can't see clearly."
At the same time, the Zhou Group's intergalactic board meeting was underway.
Today is the group's new product launch.
Zhou Zhiheng has reserved the most expensive commercial satellite for the project and secured prime time slots for all mainstream media outlets in the galaxy.
After the board members finished their discussions, they all stood in front of the screen, waiting for the press conference video.
Suddenly, in the center of the screen.
Where the Zhou Group logo should have appeared, a string of pink hearts appeared instead.
However, the screen was filled with a pink light curtain.
Heart-shaped special effects fly around, and the background music is a tender version of "Love of the Stars and the Sea".
The entire board of directors stared in disbelief. Zhou Zhiheng's face was so dark it could freeze, and his purple eyes were as cold as knives.
"Who did this?!"
He flicked his finger, searching through the hyperdimensional ledger. A few seconds later, the result popped up:
[Signal source: Ning Shuyin.]
On the other end, Ning Shuyin had already noticed that something was wrong.
She successfully uploaded the video. However, the satellite signal was not being transmitted from the restaurant.
"System, what's going on? I clearly rented the satellite."
[Host, your calculations are correct, and you have indeed leased the satellite, but you have only overwritten the playback content.]
The satellite's final destination was changed by the controller of the hyper-dimensional ledger. His authority is higher than yours, so…
No sooner had the system finished speaking than Ning Shuyin's personal computer started beeping urgently.
She clicked to answer the call.
Zhou Zhiheng's holographic projection floated in front of her, with a long row of board members behind him.
"Ning Shuyin," he said through gritted teeth, "you used my satellite to broadcast this... light pollution at my most important press conference?"
He pointed at the sky full of pink hearts, his face turning ashen with anger.
Do you know how much this advertising slot costs?
Ning Shuyin: "..."
Her expression froze: "I... how was I supposed to know you wanted to use that satellite! Besides, there was no bidding for that satellite."
The system silently added insult to injury in her mind: [Host, the Zhou Group's stock price has fallen by 9%, and Young Master Zhou's anger level has increased by 99. Please be mindful of your personal safety.]
"Hmph!" Zhou Zhiheng glared at her angrily. "Do you expect me to pay for my personal satellite?"
The young man's handsome face was filled with my displeasure.
The board members behind him didn't dare to breathe, keeping their eyes down and pretending to be just background figures.
Only a few people dared to glance at this mysterious woman who dared to defy the laws of nature.
Zhou Zhiheng glanced at Ning Shuyin, remained silent for a moment, and then suddenly waved his hand to shut down the synchronization with the board of directors.
He was the only one left in the entire holographic projection: "Ning Shuyin, you have to compensate me for my losses."
Another loss...
Ning Shuyin was speechless. Couldn't they come up with something new? The medical expenses settlement from the Star Palace, plus the commission for guiding the K99 ruins, hadn't even been settled yet.
Zhou Zhiheng, however, appeared completely at ease.
"My first option is to compensate me for the direct economic loss of 10 billion Star Coins, as well as the incalculable reputational damage."
"The second option..."
With a light tap of his fingertip, a document was projected in front of Ning Shuyin.
The cover features a row of mysterious symbols from an ancient civilization.
Below, written in the interstellar common language, is the "Song of Tracing the Stars," an invitation to an ancient civilization art exhibition.
"I'm the one who organized this exhibition. Come with me tomorrow night. Our last date was ruined by that old man Caesar, so this will be our first date."
As soon as she finished speaking, the Rose Club's dating invitation interface popped up on Ning Shuyin's personal computer.
"What are you standing there for? Click 'agree'."
Ning Shuyin: "?"
She's starting to suspect that he might have done it on purpose.
