"Just as I arrived, I noticed a few boutiques downstairs that I’d like to check out."
Assistant Jin was completely stunned.
He never expected this young lady to pull such a move.
"I must have company when shopping, it’s so exhausting to do it alone, and carrying stuff is so heavy."
"..."
"Assistant Jin, you won’t deny this favor, will you?" Sun Yi stared at him, her gaze inherently commanding.
Assistant Jin wasn’t afraid of her assertiveness, but instinctively, he didn’t want to accompany her.
Changing his mind.
He thought that if he went shopping with her, it might give the boss so space, which wasn’t a bad idea.
"It’s an honor to serve a beautiful lady."
Sun Yi was satisfied.
Sun Ming laughed just in ti, "Xiao Yi, since you young people want to go shopping, I have plans tonight, so I’ll head back first and not tag along with you."
"Uncle, go on then." Sun Yi said.
Sun Ming chuckled and led the employees away.
The many employees of "Starlight Investnt Fund" watched as Miss Sun and President Sun, with great montum, led a group over.
No one expected them to leave so quickly.
Moreover, Miss Sun even took Assistant Jin with her.
The bystanders, silently observing, all showed curiosity in their eyes.
Following behind Miss Sun, Assistant Jin’s refined and handso face froze into a smile.
—He felt... he didn’t need to be so dedicated!
...
Downstairs, where Assistant Jin was helping Miss Sun carry her bag, he heard her say repeatedly, "I already have this one."
—These were all the new autumn and winter collections from various big brands!
Following her from behind, with an expressionless face, he thought, "Since you’ve already moved the entire mall ho, can’t you just spare the shopping trip?!"
Of course, he was very aware that Miss Sun’s real intention in calling him out wasn’t simply about shopping.
Indeed, after a quick glance through several boutiques.
The young lady suddenly flickered her exquisite false eyelashes and asked him, "Assistant Jin, what kind of girls do you think your President Shi likes?"
Assistant Jin straightened up, seriously and calmly replied, "Sorry, I’m not quite sure."
"Last ti at our gathering, I heard your President Shi ntioned he had a girlfriend, you must have seen her since you’re with him every day, right?"
Assistant Jin hesitated for a mont and then nodded.
"Soone as handso and capable as your President Shi must have an outstanding girlfriend, right?"
"What kind of person is she? Can you share with ?"
"Sorry, I can’t describe her." Assistant Jin said with careful wording.
"That’s not possible. Haven’t you seen her? Surely you can share a few details?" Sun Yi exclaid.
"Ah... well..." Assistant Jin very much wanted to escape right then and there.
"For example, what’s her personality, her knowledge, her profession, her appearance, her deanor... all these are describable." Sun Yi focused intently on him.
Assistant Jin continued his wordless silence.
"Is it that hard?" Sun Yi smiled slightly, "I was thinking, since our Manli and your company are strategic partners now, we’ll have many chances to work together. Maybe it’s fate, and I could even beco friends with your President Shi’s girlfriend soday."
Then, she showed a hint of pride in her eyes, "Our family has so resources in the capital. If I get to know her, perhaps I can introduce her to so resources. What do you think?"
"Sorry, Miss Sun, please forgive as a gentleman for not being able to make remarks about my boss’s girlfriend." Assistant Jin, body language screaming ’I want to leave’, said patiently, "Is there anywhere else you’d like to visit?"
Sun Yi wasn’t soone who insisted unreasonably; seeing his impenetrable attitude, she got a bit impatient and simply waved her hand, "No, nothing worth buying."
"Then would you like to take you sowhere now?" Assistant Jin asked politely.
"No need, just hand the bag; I’ll call my driver, he’s waiting nearby."
"Alright, Miss Sun." Assistant Jin handed over the renowned luxury handbag in his hands with both hands.
...
"Back already?" Shi Wangyue heard the noise outside and walked out of the office.
"Yes, President Shi." Assistant Jin had just returned to his workstation, not even sitting down yet.
"How was the shopping?" Shi Wangyue inquired.
As soon as Assistant Jin and Miss Sun left, he promptly seized the chance to text him and report his whereabouts.
Shi Wangyue promptly replied to his ssage, [I’ll cover all expenses incurred today.]
"Miss Sun didn’t buy anything." Assistant Jin said with a smile.
"Oh." Shi Wangyue nodded, "Co in for a mont."
After entering the boss’s office.
Assistant Jin recounted verbatim everything Sun Yi had said to him.
Shi Wangyue, with a faint expression, said, "Your performance bonus is doubled this month."
[I’m ready to go shopping again!]
A full smile broke out on Assistant Jin’s face, "Thank you, boss."
His attitude was very sincere.
...
It was the weekend.
Shi Wangyue had an appointnt in the morning for so business and asked Ning Youguang, "Any plans for today?"
With the sky overcast, Ning Youguang was lazily lounging on the sofa.
"No."
"Is there anywhere you’d like to go?"
Ning Youguang thought for a mont, "I’d like to go to a bookstore."
Shi Wangyue said, "I’ll take you to the bookstore, and after I finish my work, I’ll co find you, okay?"
"Sure." Ning Youguang reached out.
Shi Wangyue picked her up and placed her on the bed, "What do you want to wear?"
He walked to the wardrobe and opened the door.
"It’s so cold." Ning Youguang shivered, "A sweater, a coat."
Shi Wangyue pulled out the clothes she wanted to wear one by one, smiled, and asked, "Do you want to wear thermal pants?"
Ning Youguang gave him a faint look, watching Shi Wangyue amused:
"Okay, then I won’t wear them."
...
Assistant Jin and Old Nie ca to the University of Chinese Academy of Sciences to pick soone up.
Seeing Ning Youguang walking out with the boss, after his initial surprise, he smiled, "Miss Ning, are you coming with us?"
Shi Wangyue said, "She’s not coming with us; she’s heading to the bookstore."
"Alright, alright."
It’s true what they say; a professor is a professor—different from the ordinary person in terms of mindset and realm.
Assistant Jin admired cultural figures like Miss Ning very much.
...
Compared to Jincheng, there were noticeably fewer bookstores in Beijing.
However, this didn’t surprise Ning Youguang at all.
After all, Jincheng is famous in Jiangnan for its deep cultural heritage.
Many renowned and noble families have originated from there, and it’s been a place producing talents since ancient tis. 1314
