"Yes, that's it. First, there will be a selection process, then an awards ceremony, and finally an entrepreneurs' summit. I think a lot of business owners will attend; it'll be quite a lively event."
Xia Wenxi nodded to indicate that she understood, "I'll see when I have time in March."
If it's mid-to-late March, that's likely when the formal re-examination will take place.
Putting aside the question of whether or not to go, Xia Wenxi then posed a profound question to Xia Wensheng.
Do you think you can win the award?
Xia Wensheng chuckled briefly after hearing this.
He said in a very cocky tone, "You know I've always been a confident person. If you ask me if I can, I'll definitely say yes."
Xia Wenxi shut her mouth speechlessly; she had asked that question for nothing.
Xia Hengyuan, however, said, "The competition is fierce; it's not easy to win an award."
Xia Wensheng retorted unhappily, "Dad, your son is a promising young man, can't you have a little faith in me?"
"What good is it if I have confidence in you? I'm not a judge."
The father and son started arguing again. Ke Shurong was too lazy to listen. Just then, a salesperson contacted her on WeChat, saying that the store had just received several new bags. She took the opportunity to show them to her daughter as well.
"Little Bao, Mom has noticed that you haven't been carrying a bag much lately. I saw these few styles that seem quite suitable for young girls, how about I buy them for you?"
Bag……
Xia Wenxi remembered that when she first arrived, she saw a whole wall of bags in the young lady's room, and they were still there in the dressing room.
Xia Wenxi herself doesn't really like those luxury bags, mainly because they're not very useful to her and she doesn't go out much.
Previously, I would either study in the study room or go to Lin Shen's house, and I didn't need to carry my Hermes bag to either of those places.
So when she heard Ke Shurong say that, Xia Wenxi smiled and said, "It's winter now, so I can just put whatever I need in my pocket. I'm too lazy to carry a bag. Besides, I have plenty of bags at home, so Mom doesn't need to buy me any more."
Xia Wensheng had just finished arguing with his father when he turned to this side and said, "Mom, Xia Wenxi will still be in school in the second half of the year. Why are you buying her Hermes? Just buy her two backpacks."
Since her daughter had said she didn't like it, Ke Shurong let it go and didn't insist on buying it.
“What Wen Sheng said makes sense. You still have to go to school. It’s not good to stand out too much.”
Xia Wenxi wasn't worried about standing out or not. This was a university in Fan City, and even if she carried a gold bag, she probably wouldn't stand out.
but……
Why is everyone assuming she can continue her studies, as if the exam doesn't exist, even though the scores haven't been released yet?
Xia Wenxi has started looking into what positions at Hengyuan would be suitable for her these past two days.
If she fails the exam, she can just go straight to work; that would make her seem more nonchalant.
"Hmm... let's talk about this after I pass the exam."
Xia Wensheng was furious at her lack of self-confidence upon hearing this, wishing he could share some of his confidence with Xia Wenxi.
"Be confident! Learn from me."
The next day, Xia Wenxi brought up the matter again with Lin Shen.
"I've already made up my mind that if I don't pass the exam, I'll go to work at a company, but I really don't want to work..."
Lin Shen still remembered the last time Xia Wenxi got drunk and started crying and shouting that she didn't want to go to work as soon as she saw the subway station, so he didn't want to say anything like "Actually, going to work isn't that scary".
"If you really don't want to go to work, there are many other options. Didn't you say last time that you wanted to open a flower shop?"
"Um……"
Xia Wenxi remembered.
"I was just joking at the time, but it's an option, I guess. Maybe even if I get accepted, I'll still have to open a flower shop after graduation."
When will the next boom in humanities be?
"That's a few years from now, so there's no need to start worrying now. Maybe your thoughts will change by then. For example, you might prefer to open a coffee shop or a restaurant?"
"Sure," Xia Wenxi joked. "How about I open a coffee shop downstairs from your company and deliver coffee to your door every day?"
Xia Wenxi was amused by her own wild imagination.
"Then the gossip in your company will be about the untold story of the CEO and the female owner of the coffee shop downstairs!"
"Or perhaps—the CEO would do something like this just to avoid paying for his coffee!"
Lin Shen smiled and asked her, "I'm already looking forward to it, so when are you going to open the shop?"
Looking forward to coffee?
"no."
Just as Lin Shen finished speaking, he opened his front door.
Xia Wenxi felt herself suddenly pressed against the door, and then she heard Lin Shen in front of her say, "Looking forward to paying for the coffee with your body."
"Young man, how dare you say such bold things in broad daylight? Who taught you to do that?"
Lin Shen smiled and leaned closer to her, "No need to learn, you're self-taught."
As her lips were being held, Xia Wenxi thought that this guy must have mastered more than one skill without a teacher.
For example, he learned to kiss very naturally without any instruction.
Xia Wenxi felt her legs go weak in no time and could only support herself by hanging her hands around Lin Shen's neck.
With great difficulty, Xia Wenxi finally found a moment to speak amidst the overwhelming kisses.
"It's a bit hot, and I haven't taken off my coat yet, sob..."
Before she could finish speaking, she was cut off again, and her coat was taken off. Xia Wenxi turned her head and opened her eyes to take a look, only to find that the coat had been neatly hung on the rack.
Xia Wenxi was still wondering how Lin Shen could kiss her while hanging up clothes when she felt her lips being pressed hard, as if punishing her for not paying attention.
But just as she was about to concentrate, she was distracted by Lin Shen's next move.
"You don't need to take it off inside..."
"Okay, go back to your room and take them off."
Then, Xia Wenxi felt her legs lift off the ground and being carried into the room.
As she lay on the bed, Xia Wenxi cried out in her heart: "God, give me back my abstinent boyfriend!!!"
But the next second, Xia Wenxi opened her eyes and saw Lin Shen kneeling on the bed taking off his clothes.
She thought to herself, "Oh God, just pretend I didn't say that."
Xia Wenxi originally wanted to sit up by supporting herself with her hands, but halfway through she realized that the view was better from lying down, so she lay back down.
Her eyes were fixed on Lin Shen's abs, and she boldly stretched out a foot and lightly stepped on it, but was caught the next second.
"Looks like Wenxi wants something a little more exciting today?"
Xia Wenxi tried to pull her foot away but couldn't. Facing Lin Shen's intensely aggressive gaze, Xia Wenxi blushed and buried her face in the pillow.
"I didn't say anything."
"Hmm, you didn't say."
"But I know what you mean, we understand each other."
