The abandoned daughter of a wealthy family turns out to be a lucky charm, changing the fate of her e

It was another hour later when Shen Zhi finished resolving the issues with the employees of the Shen Group. If Shen Linchuan hadn't come downstairs to rescue her, she probably wouldn't have been able to leave today.

Shen Zhi was escorted to the door by employees of the Shen Group Research Institute. The usually highly educated people now looked like little kids being let out of kindergarten, obediently waving to Shen Zhi.

"Miss Zhizhi, come visit again when you have time~"

"Miss Zhizhi, we'll miss you!"

"Miss Zhizhi is awesome! Goodbye, Miss Zhizhi!"

"..."

Shen Zhi smiled politely, her dimples deepening at the corners of her mouth. Instantly, the once noisy corridor fell silent.

I rely on! ! !

Mommy and Daddy! I really saw a fairy!

Shen Linchuan noticed that many people were looking at Shen Zhi, and he jealously blocked Shen Zhi's view, pressing the elevator button much faster than usual.

After entering the elevator, Shen Linchuan began to complain, somewhat aggrieved:

"You seem to be able to get along well anywhere..."

He was left alone to face Li Xin, that workaholic.

Shen Linchuan always thought of himself as a work robot, but he never expected that he would be completely outmatched by Li Xin.

Li Xin held three meetings with him in one afternoon, which were so exhausting that the Shen Group employees were practically out of their minds, but Li Xin remained energetic.

If Shen Linchuan hadn't interrupted and suggested a break, the fourth meeting would probably be in progress right now.

"Zhizhi, what is your older brother's biggest hobby?" Shen Linchuan thought that someone had a lot of opinions about him, so he wanted to ask indirectly.

Unexpectedly, Shen Zhi thought for a moment and replied, "Hmm...a meeting?"

Shen Linchuan: ...

He shouldn't have asked so many questions.

Seeing Shen Zhi patting her shoulders wearily, Shen Linchuan instinctively stepped forward to massage them, his tone tinged with annoyance:

"It's all those guys' fault for being so long-winded. Aren't you tired? After dinner, go back and get some rest tonight."

"Okay... but I'm so hungry~"

When Shen Zhi gets tired, she tends to soften her tone, making it sound like she's being coquettish.

The soft ending tone is like a little hook tickling your heart.

Shen Linchuan unconsciously softened his tone, as if whispering in the girl's ear:

"I've already made a reservation at the restaurant, let's go now."

Shen Zhi thought of something, and the corners of her mouth widened as she teased:

"Is Chef Shen not cooking himself tonight?"

"If I keep cooking, I'll become a top star. Leave some room for celebrities to survive."

Shen Linchuan shook his head helplessly. He only found out in the afternoon that the photo of him frying eggs for Shen Zhi had been widely circulated in the company group. Not only that, but it had also been taken by an employee and posted online, causing quite a stir on short video platforms.

Shen Zhi giggled.

She found Shen Linchuan's massage so comfortable that she didn't feel there was anything wrong with his actions at all. On the contrary, she closed her eyes in enjoyment and made purring sounds like a kitten being petted.

"You can use a little more force~"

Upon hearing this… Shen Linchuan swallowed hard without making a sound, his voice lowered and hoarse, and he replied with an "okay".

"Shen Linchuan, your massage skills are so good, have you given massages to many people before?"

Shen Zhi was enjoying herself when she suddenly thought of this matter and subtly inquired about Shen Linchuan's past romantic experiences.

He's so good at this, he must have talked about a lot of things before.

Meeting the little girl's probing and scrutinizing gaze, Shen Linchuan answered earnestly and clearly, word by word:

"No."

"Zhizhi, from the past to the present, it's always been just you."

Shen Zhi almost couldn't suppress the urge to smile, and replied while holding back a laugh:

"Okay, I got it!"

Shen Zhi pointed to her right shoulder and gave instructions to Technician Shen with a smile:

"Xiao Shen, press the right side again~"

"it is good."

*

Shen Zhi had no idea that after that day, her name would become an instant sensation within the Shen Group, making her an idol for all the technical staff at the research institute.

During breaks and after meals, the group chat messages always contained staff members praising Shen Zhi without reservation.

Lan Xitong became even angrier after seeing this, and she always had a stern face when she arrived at the office.

Even when Director Zhou suddenly called him one day, it was because he had heard that Shen Zhi had visited their Shen Group before and wanted to ask if there were any technical summaries of Shen Zhi's problem-solving skills.

Lan Xitong could only suppress her nausea and forward the information in the group to Director Zhou.

Still unwilling to give up, she asked, "Teacher, is Shen Zhi really as amazing as you all say? Compared to her, or... compared to me, who do you think is more amazing?"

Director Zhou paused for a moment, then asked in surprise:

"Xiao Lan, how could you think that? The two of us combined are no match for the teacher!"

Lan Xitong: ……

Lan Xitong disagreed with Director Zhou's words, but out of consideration for their teacher-student relationship, she didn't say it directly.

On the other end of the phone, Director Zhou thought Lan Xitong was blaming herself for not resolving the previous issues, and kindly advised her:

"But you don't need to feel too inferior. After all, there's no comparison between ordinary people and geniuses, so there's no need to belittle yourself."

"Scientific research is a long-term endeavor; one must learn until old age."

"By the way, this Saturday is Peking University's anniversary. Peking University has invited many outstanding talents in the field to give lectures, including a big name from the National Research Council. You can come and listen to them and learn something new."

Lan Xitong agreed in a deep voice and immediately hung up the phone, casually tossing it onto the table to vent her dissatisfaction, and scoffed disdainfully:

"She's just a lecturer. The research results weren't developed by Shen Zhi alone. If I could access those core secrets, I could definitely become a lecturer too, and maybe even better than Shen Zhi!"

His gaze darkened slightly, the ruthlessness in his eyes standing out starkly against the woman's elegant and poised appearance, as hatred spread...

She must become more outstanding, work hard in secret, and then surpass Shen Zhi to amaze everyone!

What Lan Xitong didn't know was that Shen Zhi was a big shot in the China Research Association mentioned by Director Zhou, and also a specially invited guest.

Shen Zhi received the invitation from the State Council Research Association on Wednesday, and she declined it without hesitation.

Shen Zhi hadn't expected the people from the National Research Council to visit the Li family villa three times. Seeing their sincere attitude, Shen Zhi had no choice but to agree, but added:

"Let me make it clear beforehand, I will only give a basic overview of the content; I don't have time to prepare anything more complicated."

"Okay, okay, you can just say whatever you want."

Just kidding, anything Shen Zhi casually mentions is enough for their National Research Council to study for a long time. Even the gold dust left under the big boss's fingernails is gold!

Since I'm going to give a lecture at Peking University on Saturday, I can't accompany Shen Linchuan.

Ever since that day when they went to see the art exhibition and had dinner together, Shen Zhi felt that her relationship with Shen Linchuan had become very ambiguous.

Although they haven't officially confessed their feelings yet, their way of getting along already resembles that of a young couple.

Every day, they send a ton of useless messages, sharing what the other person is doing and also making plans to meet up with them for the weekend.

Even if they do nothing, they still want to occupy the other person's time.

After thinking for a moment, Shen Zhi took the initiative to send a message to Shen Linchuan.

[Shen Zhi]: I'm busy this weekend~

The implication is that he can no longer accompany the other person.

[Shen Linchuan]: I suspect you installed a surveillance camera on my phone.

[Shen Zhi]: ? Suddenly you're framing me??

Shen Linchuan chuckled softly, his slender fingers rapidly tapping on the screen:

Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence that I also happened to be busy?

The assistant, who was standing in the elevator with Shen Linchuan, secretly glanced at Shen Linchuan's expression in the elevator mirror.

tsk tsk~

What a radiant laugh!

It's obvious he's chatting with Miss Zhizhi again.

Let's chat! With Miss Zhizhi keeping them company these past few days, the atmosphere in the entire CEO's office has improved considerably.

【Shen Zhi】：(ᓀ◞ᓂ..) What's wrong? Are you just trying to save face by making excuses?
