A new guide to winning over a girlfriend with an abstract identity is released every week.

As for what might happen, he didn't say, while Lin Qiaoying was lost in her own fantasies.

She felt that Lin Zheng was definitely a scumbag.

The two were in the car, not yet friends, when he started "bullying" her.

If we become friends, wouldn't that be wonderful? ...

Her body trembled.

Lin Zheng was clearly very accommodating, so why didn't she feel any aversion?

Could it be... that his good looks have something to do with it?

Lin Qiaoying remained silent until they left the school and entered a restaurant, at which point she spoke again: "Boss, I saw from your profile that you're from the Southwest region, so I'm treating you to Sichuan cuisine, which should suit your taste."

"It's okay, we'll just eat whatever we want, I'm not picky about food."

Lin Zheng waved his hand, signaling her to lead the way.

At that moment, something appeared before him.

[My ambiguous relationship with Lin Qiaoying has increased by 1, leaving me with two more opportunities.]

Chapter 278 The Thrill of Sneaking Around

Restaurants off-campus are actually not expensive, even affordable, since they cater to students and focus on high volume and low margins.

During the meal, Lin Qiaoying talked about her family situation.

A large family is like a towering tree, with its core industries worth tens or hundreds of billions forming the trunk, and other derivative industries worth tens or hundreds of millions forming the branches.

What about the leaves?

Naturally, it refers to industries ranging from tens of thousands to millions.

All industries unite to form a near-monopoly barrier in a certain field.

Why approximate, and not absolute?

A thousand sails pass by the sunken ship; ten thousand trees bloom before the withered tree.

In any field, new vitality will always emerge due to some internal or external reason, thereby replacing the old things.

The conversation gave Lin Zheng a new understanding of business.

Lin Qiaoying continued to talk about her family situation.

Her family is a branch of the Lin Group, or rather, a branch within a branch.

It serves as a leaf in the process.

Specifically, they operate two storefronts, selling various items.

However, a certain amount of money needs to be paid to the family for the storefront every year.

For the first ten years or so, the brick-and-mortar store business was doing well, with annual net profits reaching hundreds of thousands or even millions. However, now...

It's really hard for brick-and-mortar stores to make money these days...

I'd be grateful if I could just earn back the money I spent on the storefront.

Lin Qiaoying sighed and said in a low voice, "Doing business now is really not as good as working for someone else. My parents don't want to continue renting the family storefront anymore, but they can't find any good jobs for the time being."

What she meant by saying this was that she wanted to befriend the big shot and hoped that he could help her or her family out in the future, and give them a chance to make a living.

Lin Zheng quickly understood what she meant.

He thought for a moment and then said, "Indeed, it's very difficult to find a good job these days. Take our Nancheng University graduates, for example. If they want to start earning over ten thousand yuan a month, they probably have to perform very well in school."

Not to mention those with lower levels of education, finding a job that pays over 10,000 yuan a month is indeed very, very difficult.

Lin Qiaoying nodded repeatedly, expressing her deep agreement.

Her job as a customer service representative at Lin's Leasing was arranged by a relative through her father's connections.

Lin Zheng smiled and continued, "By the way, I'm in Nancheng, currently working on a project. The initial investment is one or two million, and it's the kind of project with promising future prospects."

If you're interested, you can talk to Jiang Luoyu first. If you're really interested after that, you can talk to Yang Wan.

By the way, Yang Wan is the girl I took to Shanghai; I'm currently putting her in charge of this project.

"Oh?"

Lin Qiaoying was surprised, but quickly realized what she meant and thanked him repeatedly with a smile as bright as a peach blossom: "Yes, thank you, boss. I will ask about it."

"What are you thanking me for? Aren't we friends? Besides, we both have the surname Lin, so who knows, we might have been from the same family eight hundred years ago."

Lin Zheng smiled, reached out and put his hand on her shoulder, gently kneading it, like an elder comforting a younger person.

Lin Qiaoying's face flushed again, and her heart raced; she didn't know what she was thinking about.

After finishing their meal, the two walked out of the restaurant together.

Lin Qiaoying skipped around like a little girl and went to the milk tea shop next door to queue up for milk tea.

High-end glass bottle, cute bunny milk tea can, 42 yuan a cup, this girl bought two cups without hesitation.

After taking the milk tea, Lin Zheng happily took a sip.

Tsk~.

The 42-yuan one and the one costing a dozen or so yuan seem to taste almost the same, and the one costing a dozen or so yuan might even taste a little better.

All I can say is that the technology and the sheer skill involved are incredible.

The slightly less palatable kind is what milk tea should taste like.

The two rode their electric scooter and soon arrived at a teaching building that Lin Zheng had not visited before. The basement level contained a large conference room that could accommodate about 200 people.

"Lin Zheng, wait a moment, I'm going to change my clothes."

Lin Qiaoying greeted them and then took small steps toward the interior of the conference room, heading to an entrance on the right, where there was a small cubicle.

A moment later, she changed into a women's suit and black high heels.

She walked towards Lin Zheng with crisp steps and a professional fake smile on her face.

The shyness and cuteness of the little girl that she had shown when they were alone together before had completely disappeared.

Now, the mature and sophisticated version of Lin Qiaoying makes her appearance.

Lin Zheng was stunned for a moment.

Lin Qiaoying looks so mature in this outfit!

Then look at those ordinary college students dressed casually, their faces full of innocence and naivety.

All I can say is that being a minister or something in the student union can actually be a good way to develop yourself.

Just then, a few officers arrived who Lin Zheng vaguely recognized but didn't know.

Lin Qiaoying began to arrange the work.

Everyone went to a small cubicle to find a vest from the study department and put it on.

Then the boys started moving the tables, while the girls did some more delicate work.

For example, place a nameplate and a bottle of water on each judge's table.

Lin Qiaoying even carefully measured the distance between the nameplate and the water with a string, and insisted on arranging them with the same spacing.

Around seven o'clock, some students from the invited colleges began to arrive.

They gathered in small groups and found places to sit down.

Lin Zheng and others greeted students at the main gate and gave directions to those who couldn't find their way.

The debate officially began at around 7:30.

After finishing their work, Lin Zheng and the others went into the conference room and found an empty seat.

After the debate ends, they will need to move the tables back to their original positions and clean up the stage.

Not far away, Jiang Luoyu waved to him, indicating that she had saved a spot for him.

Lin Zheng walked over quickly, and after settling himself in, he looked at the stage in front of him.

Lin Qiaoying was holding a microphone, acting as the host, welcoming everyone to come and support the event, and inviting the judges to give instructions.

She then introduced the identities of the two sides in today's debate.

On one side was the team from the School of Electrical Engineering, and on the other side was the team from the School of Finance and Economics.

And the point we'll be debating today is, "Does breaking up mean the end of a relationship?"

"Lin Zheng, this looks really interesting. I'd like to go on stage and give it a try..."

Jiang Luoyu leaned close to Lin Zheng's ear and whispered something.

"What? Do you want to be a debater, or a host like Lin Qiaoying?"

Lin Zheng patted her head and answered.

"Emmm... hehehe~......"

Jiang Luoyu thought for a moment, then smiled sheepishly: "I was just kidding. I'm short in action. I wouldn't dare to show myself off in front of a lot of people."

Lin Zheng smiled; he knew the girl would answer like that.

"Then you should take some time to get your driver's license. Then we can buy a car together, and you, my little secretary, can be my personal driver."

"Okay!"

......

As they chatted, Lin Qiaoying finished her speech, and the debate officially began.

"I'm so damn envious! I'm crying, when will I ever find a girlfriend as beautiful as her?"

In the row behind them, Li Feng and Chen Kai sat together. Chen Kai, watching Lin Zheng and Jiang Luoyu being all lovey-dovey, almost shed tears of envy.

Li Feng also looked haggard.

That old Lin guy, really is something else.

In the afternoon, he flirts with the department head; in the evening, he flirts with the school beauty.

Hey?and many more!

"The minister is here!"

He let out a soft exclamation and immediately sat up straight.

Because Lin Qiaoying was walking towards them.

"Minister, please sit here, there's a seat available."

He looked at Lin Qiaoying as she approached, immediately put on a smile, opened his mouth, and sent a verbal message.

However......

The next moment, Lin Qiaoying sat down directly next to Lin Zheng.

"Holy shit! I knew it! Damn it!"

Upon seeing this, Li Feng immediately roared with resentment.

It's possible that Lin has really taken down the minister!

Over the next hour, Li Feng's gaze gradually shifted from anger to numbness.

Just because...

Lin Zheng was chatting with Jiang Luoyu while he had his arm around her.

With one hand on his other hand, he kept pulling and tugging at Lin Qiaoying, playing a game of holding hands.

Lin Qiaoying came closer, originally intending only to continue to make herself known to Lin Zheng.

Unexpectedly, Lin Zheng suddenly reached out and grabbed one of her small hands.

She was startled on the spot.

Take a closer look.

This scumbag is currently being all lovey-dovey with his girlfriend.
