I'm a sophomore in college, what the heck is this "male god cultivation system"?

Chapter 104 Model
One p.m.

"We're here. Okay, I'll come down to meet you now."

After hanging up the phone, Chen Yan walked out of the office, entered the elevator, and pressed the button for the first floor.

The elevator quickly arrived at the first floor. As soon as Chen Yan stepped out of the elevator, he saw Shu He standing in the lobby, looking slightly uneasy.

"Shu He." Chen Yan waved and greeted her, while also glancing at Shu He's outfit today.

When it comes to aesthetics, Chen Yan is too lazy to even describe it in words... She can only say that she relies purely on her looks. If her looks were even slightly lacking, she would instantly become a country bumpkin.

Shu He was also observing Chen Yan...

Chen Yan wore a black coat with trousers today. The fitted style of the coat, combined with Chen Yan's tall and upright figure, created a perfect match.

It's no exaggeration to say that every single male lead in TV dramas who wears an overcoat today would be completely outclassed by Chen Yan.

"Hello, boss." Shu He nodded slightly and greeted him with a touch of social anxiety.

She originally wanted to call Chen Yan, but before she could say it, she thought of her "employee" status and realized that calling him "boss" would be more appropriate.

"Why all the formality? Just call me by my name." Chen Yan said casually. "The makeup artist and photographer are all ready. Come with me and try on your new clothes first."

"Oh, okay." Shu He nodded repeatedly, then hurriedly followed Chen Yan toward the room where the new clothes were stored.

……

On the first day of filming, Chen Yan didn't do the stunts himself... although
However, in most cases, taking photos in person can quickly bring the two parties closer. But based on Chen Yan's current understanding of Shu He, she appears to be socially awkward, but at the same time, she is very guarded. Any abrupt action of his would trigger her "automatic defense mechanism".

Since the fish has already taken the bait, a skilled angler will use various techniques to exhaust the fish's strength, and then easily pull it up when it is exhausted.

Anglers who try to catch a fish by pulling hard and using brute force will only end up empty-handed.

As for the new clothes... Chen Yan did purchase a batch of new clothes some time ago. In the safe in his office on the seventh floor, there are contact information for various partner companies, and the supply channels are all readily available.

On the first day, Chen Yan had Shu He wear conservative clothes, and with the photographer and makeup artist being women, the progress was quite good, and Shu He didn't experience any negative emotions.

……

Half past five in the afternoon.

"Alright, that's enough for today." Chen Yan yawned, looked at Shu He who had just finished taking photos, and said, "Let's take off your makeup later, go out for dinner together, and then I'll take you home."

Chen Yan's words contained not a single question, and coupled with his tone of voice, they conveyed a kind of firmness that was not offensive.

"It's only 5:30 now." Shu He glanced at her watch and said softly, "If we leave work now, wouldn't we have missed half an hour of filming?"

Chen Yan's lips twitched involuntarily...

Leaving get off work early is a good thing that most people would accept without hesitation, so why would anyone specifically bring it up again?

"It's okay. If it's the next outfit, you'll need to redo your makeup, and half an hour won't be enough time." Chen Yan waved his hand. "Anyway, you're not just here for one day. We can shoot tomorrow."

"Hmm...then I'll shoot for an extra half hour tomorrow."

Shu He thought for a moment and then added this sentence.

In her opinion, Chen Yan's salary was already quite good, and besides, Chen Yan was her friend's boyfriend. He was so kind to her, so she couldn't let him suffer a loss.

"Okay," Chen Yan nodded and said, "You should remove your makeup and change your clothes first, and let me know when you're done." ...

Chen Yanding's restaurant is a Japanese restaurant called Youju.

Chen Yan doesn't dislike Japanese food, but he doesn't particularly love it either; he eats it once or twice a month at most.

He didn't even quite understand why this thing was so popular in China, since it was expensive and not particularly delicious.

Of course, Chen Yan also had his own reasons for inviting Shu He to dinner here.

Based on his high school experience, Chen Yan knew one thing very well: "Money can't buy feelings, but it can easily destroy a relationship."

He had a friend in high school who started dating a girl who practiced dance. At first, their relationship was pretty good... until a rich guy also fell for the girl.

The rich guy's approach is simple: just throw money at it.

When that girl had her birthday, Chen Yan's friend sent her a 520 yuan red envelope, and that rich guy immediately sent her a 2,000 yuan red envelope.

After these repeated comparisons, Chen Yan's friend was eliminated.

It's actually quite simple: the rich guy raised the girl's threshold. Originally, she thought a 520 yuan red envelope was already very generous, but she retaliated by sending over 2,000 yuan...

Even if reason tells her that this is due to the difference in the financial circumstances of their families, if reason were so useful, there wouldn't be so many absurd things in history.

Even if she were the most rational person, a thought would still cross her mind: Chen Yan's friend wasn't as sincere towards her as that rich guy.

Once the seed of emotion is planted, it will sprout sooner or later...

You transfer 500, someone else transfers several thousand, and then they subtly say things like, "It feels like your boyfriend is just going through the motions. I wish I had a girlfriend like you..."

It's no exaggeration to say that this approach works for 90% of women... Spending money may not necessarily make a girl like you, but it can easily make her dissatisfied with her partner.

……

Shu He initially thought that Chen Yan meant eating at a roadside restaurant or a street stall, until she realized that Chen Yan was heading towards Wanning Mall...

"Chen Yan, where are we going?"

"Youju, a Japanese restaurant, has pretty good food."

'Chrysanthemum...' Shu He murmured to herself. Although she had no recollection of the store, she felt it must be quite upscale.

When she arrived at Youju with Chen Yan, her original guess was completely confirmed.

Yuju's shop is not large and is decorated in a Japanese style. When the wooden door slides inward, it brings out a smell that is mixed with the aroma of charcoal and kelp.

At the same time, a female shop assistant dressed in a kimono stepped forward and asked, "Hello sir, do you have an appointment?"

Chen Yan gave the last digit of his number, and then the waiter led the two of them into a private room.

Chen Yan handed the tablet to Shu He and asked, "I pre-ordered some dishes. Is there anything you'd like to eat?"

"I haven't eaten much Japanese food before, how about we have them serve the dishes first?"

“Okay.” Chen Yan nodded, turned to the waiter, and said, “Then serve my order.”
