After rebirth, I only date bad girls

Chapter 392 What's it like to be a simp?

Liang Can likes ambitious people, like Jiang Yuan, who can truly make money for him.

After standing at the door for a while and finishing his cola, Liang Can returned to his office.

This morning, representatives from Xiaomi Technology arrived, led by a vice president. Their visit was primarily a friendly exchange between the two companies, where they discussed new trends in the future of the industry.

But it's clear to everyone that this exchange was more than just a simple exchange.

Because among the Xiaomi delegation were two employees from Shunwei Capital.

Although they have the same boss, they belong to two different companies. Liang Can sent Tong Zhu, the head of the investment department, to receive these two people separately.

After showing the visiting team around, holding a meeting, and taking a few photos, Liang Can asked Zheng Ting to accompany them to the hotel to rest, as there were other activities planned for the evening.

Well, we adults talk about work at our desks and relationships over drinks; it's all the same routine.

Bosses who don't treat their desks as proper places and let their female secretaries lie on them are all wicked and perverted.

"Junior, I've made all the arrangements for tonight. The gifts for the guests have been delivered to their hotel suites in advance." Zheng Ting reported to Liang Can upon returning.

"Okay, sure." Liang Can snapped his fingers. "It's all about social etiquette. If you're good to me, I'll be good to you too. If we give each other face first, then even if we have disagreements later, we'll have a strong backing."

Before Zheng Ting left, Mu Cheng came in.

"President Liang, Xu Zijing has already started targeting Taobao's Double Eleven according to the plan you decided in the meeting. Guess what? Several other companies have followed suit. Now it's like tigers fighting a pack of hungry wolves. It's really lively online," Mu Cheng said excitedly.

Liang Can didn't even need to guess; he could figure out with his backside which companies were actively responding.

As the old saying goes, you just need to initiate the team fight, and the system will naturally match you with teammates.

With such a large market share and such a significant influence among users, this little incident won't cause them any harm whatsoever; it's not even a serious blow.

But even if we only manage to gnaw on a little bit of the skin, it's enough for the rest of us to have a full meal.

This is the power of market giants.

Liang Can put his legs on the desk and, seeing that Zheng Ting was still there, asked, "What's wrong? Is there something else?"

Zheng Ting nodded: "Yes, your speech at Zhejiang University last time was very successful and well received. So recently, many universities have sent you invitations, not only those in Hangzhou, but also many universities in other provinces. I haven't given you an answer yet."

"Damn it, I just said a few words casually, how did it become such a great success?" Liang Can asked in confusion.

Mu Cheng: “.”

Zheng Ting hurriedly said, "Let alone outsiders, even I, who am someone who spends every day with my junior, was thrilled and overjoyed that day. This kind of reaction from the outside world is perfectly normal; it would be abnormal if there was no reaction."

Mu Cheng glanced at Zheng Ting, wondering what had happened to turn this honest, taciturn engineering student, who used to be clueless about what to do when he was cheated on by a scheming woman, into such a sycophant.

It is often said that a person needs to have core competitiveness in the workplace in order to avoid being eliminated.

It seems that this is Tingzi's core competitiveness.

Liang Can looked worried and then said, "We still have to give face to some universities. So, you can filter them and compile a list for me, and then I'll decide which one to visit when I have some free time."

"Understood, I'll take care of it right away." Zheng Ting quickly ran off.

"and many more."

Liang Can called out to Zheng Ting, then suddenly sighed and looked at Mu Cheng, who was still there, and said with great distress, "Do you think there is such a place now, where I can go without causing a sensation or a commotion, where everyone just treats me like an ordinary person and interacts with me normally? I miss that feeling so much."

Mu Cheng: “.”

Zheng Ting: “.”

Ideally, Liang Can would arrive at a place where nobody knows him, be provoked by some arrogant idiot, and then flaunt his wealth.

Immediately afterward, a discerning passerby exclaimed in shock, "Are you Liang Can?"

Everyone asked in unison, "Who is Liang Can?"

Anyone with a discerning eye would say: "Liang Can is the chairman of Qingning Technology. He owns both the Qingning APP and Pinpinduoduo. He's a rising star in the internet industry, a future leader in the field, handsome and talented—an impeccable figure!"

I'm so excited just thinking about it.

A moment of elation crossed Liang Can's mind, but seeing Zheng Ting still standing there, he became even more puzzled: "Is there anything else?"

Zheng Ting hesitated for a moment before replying, "President Liang, Zhejiang University has also extended an invitation, but it's not as high-level as last time. It's a secondary college that wants to invite you to an event. Logically, from a publicity perspective, you should attend, but..."

Zheng Ting chuckled and said, "I know you dislike Qi Shuping's daughter. She's studying at Zhejiang University, right? Last time, the school's deputy secretary personally asked our Principal Ye for help, so you had to go whether you wanted to or not. This time, I thought I couldn't let you suffer any more grievances."

Liang Can looked up: "You rejected it?"

Zheng Ting immediately said, "Of course I won't refuse outright, but I'll make sure to give the company a lot of credit and say that you're just too busy to make the time."

After saying that, he looked at Liang Can with a smug expression, expecting praise from him.

With his hands in his pockets, Liang Can slowly got up and walked to the French windows. He glanced back at Zheng Ting and said approvingly, "You think what I think and worry about what I worry about. You are indeed very suitable to be the office director, Zheng Ting."

Zheng Ting was overjoyed: "Understood, I'll go and refuse right away!"

"No, I'll schedule a time with them and go."

Liang Can patted Zheng Ting on the shoulder and said seriously, "Senior, I am no longer the willful and reckless freshman I used to be. Now, I am a mature sophomore, and every social activity I participate in is closely related to the company's image."

"Zhejiang University is the most prestigious university in the province. The reputation of the secondary colleges should be respected, and I cannot make decisions based on personal preferences."

After saying that, Liang Can turned around again, giving Mu Cheng and Zheng Ting a majestic back view.

The burden on his shoulders was heavy, and every step he took was a struggle. But Can'er never gave up.

Zhejiang University
Qi Mingyue took the school bus to the club recruitment site.

Every year, after freshmen register and undergo military training, it's right before National Day, so many clubs will postpone their recruitment until after National Day.

Qi Mingyue originally didn't want to come; she had absolutely no interest in club activities.

Even book clubs seem a bit pretentious.

A group of people are surrounding one person, who is holding a book and reading what he considers to be a very good passage.

To be honest, Qi Mingyue is somewhat socially awkward.

In the past, she wouldn't have even glanced at it if she passed by, but now Miss Qi Mingyue has a best friend who loves to cause trouble.

"Bright moon, here it is!"

From afar, Qi Mingyue spotted Lili, dressed in a black dress, white socks, and black leather shoes. Lili was waving enthusiastically at her before jogging over.

"Slow down, you're messing up my bangs."

When the raccoon ran up to her, Qi Mingyue raised her hand and helped her tidy up her bangs.

"Look, these are all promotional materials sent to me by various clubs." Lili handed the booklets in her hand to Qi Mingyue. "Take a look and see if there's anything that interests you."

Qi Mingyue took the booklet, but she wasn't interested in anything about the street dance club, the technology club, or the taekwondo club.

"I'll just accompany you for a stroll. I'm really not interested in club activities or anything like that," Qi Mingyue shook her head.

Seeing this, Lili sighed: "Mingyue, you go to college, but you don't participate in clubs or date. You have nothing to do but study. How boring must your life be?"

Qi Mingyue shrugged and said nonchalantly, "It's okay, I can play with you in my spare time."

"Don't you want to play with me?" Qi Mingyue looked at Lili.

"Of course not. I was planning to introduce He Meiqi to you this Sunday. It would be more fun if the three of us played together."

Qi Mingyue smiled slightly, her smile appearing even more refreshing and refined in the sunlight. Some of the eager senior students around her were already holding up promotional materials, ready to launch their attack.

"But then again."

Lili looked at Qi Mingyue seriously and said, "If I start dating Brother Liang Can in the future, I definitely won't be able to play with you every day like we do now. He Meiqi also likes dating, so she can't play with you as often either. You'll be so bored then."

Is Lili dating Liang Can?
Qi Mingyue wanted to say something, but after opening her mouth, she hesitated and stopped.

Garlic bird, garlic bird, Liang Can might not be as bad as I think.

Just like last time he came to the school to give a lecture, he changed the host because he complained about something.

"Then I wish you all the best. I'm fine." Qi Mingyue took Lili's arm and said in a relaxed tone, "I can sit in the library all day by myself and try to get into graduate school."

"Wow, you're only a freshman, and you're already thinking about getting into graduate school?"

“Be prepared for a rainy day.”

Lili nodded and strolled around with Qi Mingyue.

Qi Mingyue remained silent, seemingly lost in thought.

After a long pause, she pondered for a moment and suddenly asked, "Lili, if it were Liang Can, which club would he recommend you to join?"

Lili thought for a moment: "Brother Liang Can won't make any demands on me. He'll definitely say, 'Join whichever club you like, and being happy is the most important thing.'"

This is exactly the usual way to coax a girl, Qi Mingyue thought to herself.

"But if it were you," Lili chuckled, "Brother Liang Can would definitely suggest you go to the External Relations Department. The External Relations Department is good for developing communication skills, which would be a good way to change your taciturn personality."

External Relations Department?
Qi Mingyue frowned: "Is it the external relations department that goes around soliciting sponsorships before every event?"

"correct."

"I don't think it will develop any skills," Qi Mingyue said calmly. "Student council events with budgets of several thousand or tens of thousands of yuan are something I can pay for myself."

"Oh, that doesn't count!"

"Why not? My money is money too."

As they were talking, a voice rang out as the two passed a club booth.

"Hey junior girls, would you like to learn more about the External Relations Department?"

Qi Mingyue and Lili looked over at the sound and saw a girl with a light-colored face and a face that was quite pleasing to boys, looking at them with a half-smile.

When Zhu Muxi and Liang Can came to Zhejiang University to give lectures, she originally appeared on camera as the host.

Qi Mingyue stopped and looked at Zhu Muxi, asking, "Are you the head of the External Relations Department?"

"Correct."

Miss Qi Mingyue thought for only a few seconds, then said softly, "Give me an application form. I want to join the External Relations Department."

I'm really not afraid.
