The next morning, everyone was reviewing in their own rooms. Even Gong Zi didn't act willfully to disturb Zhou Yi anymore.
After all, they were all here carrying the hopes and honors of their own school.
However, whether they reviewed or not didn't make much difference. One morning couldn't change much.
When Zhou Yi woke up, Gong Zi was no longer in his room.
The girl had bought breakfast and placed it on his bedside, with a note underneath.
"Remember, it wasn't you who took advantage of me. This is just my way of expressing my love for you. I was also happy. Brother, don't feel burdened. You didn't hurt me in any way."
Zhou Yi smiled. He could even imagine the girl coolly raising her eyebrows and holding her head up as she said these words.
One really had to say that she was indeed a girl who played rock and roll. Her style really showed a bit of daring to love and hate.
Gong Zi wasn't as devastated as Zhou Yi had imagined.
Although Zhou Yi had always shown that he was rejecting her.
So what?
If Zhou Yi had easily fallen in love with her, she wouldn't have been so infatuated.
What she wanted was precisely this feeling of "loving but not getting".
However, having had an intimate relationship with him wasn't a complete loss.
Gong Zi happily shared her "victory" in the group chat.
[Gong Zi: I got him, guys.]
[Peach Peach: Holy shit, are you that awesome? You got Zhou Yi?]
[Meng Qianqian: Did he confess his love to you?]
[Wang Haihai in the US: No way. Is this kind of male god really that vulnerable? From the way he sang rock and roll, he didn't seem like a love - struck person.]
[Gong Zi: No, it's me who got caught. I'm in love with him.]
There were a bunch of "holy shits" in the group.
Gong Zi had never said that she was in love with anyone before. This was the first time.
She told her friends that she had spent a pleasant night with Zhou Yi and said that Zhou Yi was amazing.
There were sounds of envy below.
[Wang Haihai in the US: How amazing? Tell us in detail.]
[Meng Qianqian: A top - notch man like Zhou Yi. Even if you just sleep with him for one night, it's a win. Damn, I'm so envious.]
[Peach Peach: To be fair, our Gong Zi isn't losing by sleeping with Zhou Yi. She's got the guts.]
Gong Zi chatted with her friends in the group for a few minutes and then put down her phone.
There was still a competition in the afternoon, and she didn't want to lose to others.
Zhou Yi didn't need to review at all. He had an "ace up his sleeve" and would win no matter how the exam went.
He was on the phone with Jiang Ruolan.
Jiang Ruolan told him that since they were on the hot search yesterday, the account [Zhou Yi's Little Assistant] had received a lot of messages from entertainment companies, as well as invitations from variety shows and musicians.
"Mr. Zhou, what do you think?"
"First, check if the accounts and messages are real. If they are from relatively powerful companies and variety shows, then consider them."
"Okay, then I'll add their contact information and sort them into a table and send it to you later."
"Thank you so much for dealing with this kind of work. I'll give you a raise when I get back."
Jiang Ruolan, who was looking up information on the computer, was stunned for a moment and then suddenly smiled.
Mr. Zhou was really straightforward, but she couldn't just accept it like this.
"Mr. Zhou, you're being too polite. As your assistant, my main job is to share your burdens. Let's talk about the raise after I help you earn money. I don't have the qualification now."
Jiang Ruolan was a proud woman.
In her opinion, Zhou Yi had been kind enough to her. She had only joined the company for a short time and had no achievements yet. How could she accept a raise?
This would also easily cause dissatisfaction among other employees, so she refused.
Jiang Ruolan was trying her best for the first time to earn money for her boss. She felt that if she didn't work hard, she would be sorry for Zhou Yi.
Mainly, working at Huanyu was so wonderful.
Not only did she think so, but most of the employees at Huanyu thought the same way.
"Sister Lan, do we still have no work today?"
When Jiang Ruolan came out to get water, an employee at the workstation asked her.
Jiang Ruolan smiled faintly and said, "Don't worry. Mr. Zhou is participating in a competition. He'll assign tasks to you when he comes back."
Other employees also said:
"But Sister Lan, it just feels so... I've never felt so guilty about slacking off at work before."
"Me too. I feel like I'm just taking Mr. Zhou's money for nothing. I really want to do something for the company."
"Hey, I'm afraid other company employees would think we're crazy if they heard us say this."
Everyone laughed.
"By the way, Sister Lan, did Mr. Zhou really say that we could play games in the company? I'm still a bit scared."
"Really. Before Mr. Zhou left, I asked about the work arrangements for everyone. Mr. Zhou said to play games, slack off, sleep, and rest. He'll organize a team - building activity when you come back. You can think about where you want to go in advance."
Wu Ying and Wen Xin looked at each other and thought they were really lucky to have joined Huanyu.
They didn't even dare to tell their friends what they were doing every day for fear that their friends would be jealous.
They felt that they had gained weight since they joined Huanyu not long ago.
"I feel like I'm in a nursing home. I used to look forward to retirement, but now I feel like I've already retired."
"Give me some of the chips on your desk. Let's talk about gossip."
"Do you know that Mr. Zhou is a musical genius?"
"Yeah, I really love that song 'Blue Lotus'."
"No wonder Huanyu is such a company. Mr. Zhou's thinking is on a different level from those other bosses. He's much better than Long Can."
"I'm so looking forward to the team - building activity. This is the first time I've been so excited about a team - building event."
......
The working atmosphere at Huanyu was really great. There was no intrigue among colleagues, and no one was competing to out - work each other.
The most common things they did every day were chatting about gossip or playing games together in teams, which was a bit like the relationship between college roommates.
In such an environment, Jiang Ruolan also felt very relaxed. Usually, the position of the general assistant was not well - liked by employees.
On the surface, she seemed to be the right - hand assistant of the boss. All the decisions of the company or the boss had to be conveyed by her, so it was easy for her to become the target of everyone's complaints.
But in fact, she was also an employee, and the boss also liked to ask her about the company's affairs from time to time.
It was really difficult to be in the middle.
At Huanyu, she didn't have such concerns.
To be honest, she really missed Zhou Yi during the days when he was away.
Jiang Ruolan stared blankly at the computer and suddenly lost her focus. Thinking of the time when she was drunk, she tightened her grip on the mouse.
If only Zhou Yi wasn't her superior.
But if he wasn't her superior, she wouldn't have so many connections with him.
So, it was an unsolvable problem.
The woman sighed and threw herself back into work.
On the other side, Zhou Yi and his group had entered A University to prepare for the competition.
The venue for this mathematical modeling competition was right at A University.
"No wonder it's A University. It's really beautiful," Jiang Cong exclaimed as he looked at the scenery on the campus of A University.
As the top - tier university in China, A University had a long history. Its campus area was ten times that of Huai University. The school scenery was beautiful, and there were handsome guys and beautiful girls everywhere.
When Zhou Yi and his group entered the campus, they attracted a lot of attention. He was just too eye - catching.
"Is that the Zhou Yi from the hot search yesterday?"
"Yes, it seems they're here for a competition at our school."
"Wow, he's really that good-looking! I thought it was just the video filter."
"Go ask for his WeChat?"
"I'll do it!"
Zhou Yi was stopped by a beautiful girl who asked for his WeChat. He politely declined, and the girl smiled and walked away.
Along the way, Zhou Yi lost count of how many people, including some boys (he had no idea what was going through their minds), asked for his WeChat.
When they arrived at the exam venue, there were already quite a few people standing outside.
The team from Province S also spotted Zhou Yi and his group. Yang Hong, the captain of the S - province team, glanced at Zhou Yi and then indifferently shifted his gaze away.
"Damn it, what kind of look was that? Who does he think he's looking down on?"
Jiang Cong rolled his eyes at Yang Hong in disbelief.
Wang Yuyan snorted and said, "He's already been defeated by our captain. Yet he's still so arrogant. I can't stand him."
Zhou Yi smiled good - naturedly and said, "Let it go. Since he doesn't consider us as one of his own, we don't have to care about him either."
Just as Zhou Yi finished speaking, there was a sudden stir in the crowd.
