Rebirth: Starting with Capturing the Goddess Mentor

Chapter 169 Jiang Muyun: Can I work for you?

After the two had lunch, Chen Yan drove Jiang Zhixin back to school.

The Mercedes-Benz S400 drove into the university gate and drove all the way to the faculty and staff office building.

Chen Yan parked the car downstairs at the office building. As the engine noise subsided, he turned to the side, his slender fingers skillfully unbuckling his own seatbelt. Then he leaned over and helped Jiang Zhixin unbuck her seatbelt.

"By the way, I'm going to Shanghai tomorrow to expand the market. I estimate I'll be staying for about a month, so I'd like to ask you for leave," Chen Yan suddenly said.

Jiang Zhixin was stunned for a moment, a hint of disappointment rising in her heart, but she quickly composed herself and said sarcastically:

"Since President Chen has already received special approval from Dean Pan, is it really necessary for him to ask for leave from me, a mere counselor with little influence?"

Hearing Jiang Zhixin's sarcastic tone, Chen Yan said with a serious face, "I can not report to the counselor, but I have to report to my future wife."

Ugh, why does this person keep flirting all the time?
Jiang Zhixin felt her heart race a little, and she lightly spat out, "Who said I was going to be your future wife..."

"Then I'll find someone else to do it?"

Jiang Zhixin rolled her eyes at him: "Go, hurry up and go, and find as many as you can."

"Okay, you said it yourself, don't regret it later," Chen Yan thought to himself.

After Jiang Zhixin opened the car door, she turned back to Chen Yan and said, "Be careful on the road, and remember to send me a message when you get to Shanghai."

"OK."

Chen Yan nodded in response, watching Jiang Zhixin's figure gradually disappear into the distance until it vanished behind the office building, before starting the car and slowly driving away from the campus.

After returning to Qiantangyin's office, Chen Yan opened WeChat and saw that he already had 99+ messages.

The high school and university class groups have exploded with activity, with everyone frantically tagging Chen Yan to come out and say hi.

In reality, if strangers see this kind of news, they'll most likely just be amazed for a moment and then move on, just like when we watch those genius teenagers on "The Brain" who were admitted to Tsinghua and Peking Universities at the age of twelve or thirteen.
After watching it, I just thought, "Wow, this guy is awesome!"

But that's about it; I don't really take it to heart.

But what if this person is your classmate?
Then you'll immediately feel unbalanced.

Damn it, why? We're all from the same class and the same school, so why are you so awesome?

Compared to this, don't we seem quite useless?

The university class group chat was alright, because apart from his roommates in room 303, Chen Yan didn't have much contact with his university classmates. In fact, he didn't even remember the names of all his classmates.

So everyone was basically complimenting him. Even Hu Zhanyi, the pretentious young man who used to be somewhat at odds with him, was now calling Chen Ge awesome and chatting happily in the group.

But a few people in the high school class group stood up.

[Class 5, Grade 12, Cizhong High School Group]

Classmate A: Wow, Chen Yan, you kept it a secret! I didn't hear you mention your startup at the winter break gathering.

Student B: Yeah, Chen Yan, come out and tell us how you did it.
Han Jingyao: @Chen Yan, Mr. Chen is so busy these days, he doesn't even bother with us newbies anymore?
Bai Jinxuan: Let me explain to everyone that the 5000 million is not as exaggerated as you think. This is company funds and can only be used for company operations and development. Therefore, Chen Yan cannot use this money freely.

Wei Shengjin: The class monitor is right. Unless the company can go public, the so-called shares and valuations are just a mirage.

Wei Shengjin: If the company is not managed well in the future, not only will it end up with nothing, but it will also waste the best years of college life.

Han Jingyao: Even so, it's still amazing. We're still relying on our families for living expenses, while he's already started two companies.

……

Chen Yan glanced at them and found that they were basically the same boys who had been top students in school, acting as "science popularization masters."

These people cannot accept the fact that they failed in the competition, so they can only gain a sense of existence by belittling others.

Honestly, if Chen Yan were only 18, he definitely wouldn't be able to control himself and would want to poop a huge pile of food to feed them.

For example, take a picture of your 120-square-meter office and post it in a group chat, casually revealing a Mercedes car key in the bottom right corner of the photo, then reply with a seemingly nonchalant comment:
"Excuse me, I just finished dinner with my girlfriend. What were you talking about?"

However, right now, he is inhabited by the soul of a 30-year-old young man.

As for these jerks, well, I can't be bothered with them.

……

After switching out of the high school class group, there were still quite a few private messages on WeChat.

Chen Yan read through them one by one, replying to a few familiar people. As for those he didn't usually interact with, why bother with them?
Effective social interaction for adults requires learning to subtract rather than add.

The standard for effective social interaction is "making you happy" or "advancing your goals".

So, bravely reject those ineffective social interactions and focus on the people and things that are beneficial to you. As he scrolled, Chen Yan discovered a name that surprised him slightly—Jiang Muyun.

To be honest, Chen Yan had almost forgotten that he still had her WeChat.

He and Jiang Muyun don't usually keep in touch, and they're not even close friends who exchange likes on social media.

The main reason is that these two people almost never post on WeChat Moments. Chen Yan is older psychologically and doesn't like using WeChat Moments anymore.

Jiang Muyun found it strange that, despite being in the prime of her youth and bursting with the desire to share, she had almost never posted a single message on her WeChat Moments.

Okay, let's get back to the main point. According to the above theory, Jiang Muyun should be considered an ineffective social interaction for Chen Yan.

But for some reason, Chen Yan couldn't control himself and clicked on her chat box.

Damn, being pretty definitely has its advantages.

Jiang Muyun: [Chen Yan, are you there?]

It would be impolite not to reply, Chen Yan thought to himself.

Yes, my mother taught me from a young age to be a polite and well-mannered child.

Chen Yan replied: [Yes]

Jiang Muyun: [Um, I saw the news, you're really amazing!!]

How do you know I'm amazing? We've never slept together.

Chen Yingjun: [Is there something you need?]

Jiang Muyun: [Emmm, can I work for you? I want to learn from you and improve myself.]

Damn it, you're here to learn?

I'm embarrassed to expose you!

Inside the CEO's office on the 20th floor of Qiantangyin, Chen Yan sighed softly: "Sigh~, it's all because I'm too charming. Sometimes I really envy those people with ordinary looks..."

Several minutes later, Chen Yan replied: "But I'm going to Shanghai on a business trip tomorrow, and I won't be back for at least a month."

Jiang Muyun replied almost instantly: 【Can I come with you? I promise I'll be very well-behaved and won't cause you any trouble. Plus, you can ask me to do any chores you need.】

Honestly, if a campus beauty wanted to go on a business trip with you, could you refuse?
You're amazing, you're so awesome, you'll never find a girlfriend in your life.

"You can order her to do any kind of groceries?"

"Isn't that like hiring a nanny? Well, that's good, it will improve my work efficiency."

"I'm just doing this for work, I have absolutely no other intentions," Chen Yan thought to himself.

Chen Yingjun: [So how much salary do you want?]

Jiang Muyun: [I don't want money, just room and board. After all, I'm here to train myself, and I'd like to thank you for giving me this learning opportunity.]

Chen Yingjun: [Okay, then what about your classes?]

Jiang Muyun: [It's okay, I have good grades. Even if I don't go to class and just study on my own, I can still get a 90 on the final exam.]

Chen Yan suddenly had a strange feeling, as if she was humiliating him.
Chen Yingjun: [Okay, let's meet at the south gate of the school at 8 a.m. tomorrow.]

Jiang Muyun: [Received!]

Jiang Muyun: [Thank you, Chen Yan]

Chen Yingjun: [Don't call me by my name, it's too formal.]

Jiang Muyun: [What's it called? (Question)]

Chen Yingjun: [Call me brother]

On the other side, the girls' dormitory.

Jiang Muyun was lying on the bed when Chen Yan's sudden shove caused her to strain her back.

But considering she needed his help, Jiang Muyun obediently sent a voice message: 【See you tomorrow, brother~】
