Lin Manzhi's best friend's WeChat profile picture was of a woman in a long trench coat and sunglasses, holding a bouquet of flowers.
It looked very artistic, effortlessly cool and beautiful, with a great vibe.
"Her na is Jiang Tingyu, sa age as you. She currently works at the Aquarium.
She had a boyfriend in college, but they broke up long ago, and she's available right now…"
Lin Manzhi sent over her information; it was very detailed, not even hiding the fact that she'd had a boyfriend before.
Shen Siyuan didn't mind that she had a previous boyfriend.
After all, for a beautiful 26-year-old woman, how could she possibly lack suitors? Having a relationship history wasn't surprising.
Besides, Shen Siyuan was just going to et her.
Whether it worked out or not was another matter, so there was no need to overthink it.
"Thanks, Sister Manzhi," Shen Siyuan said politely.
"I'll leave the rest to you. You two can chat on your own.
You should take the initiative," Lin Manzhi added as a reminder.
Shen Siyuan replied with an "OK" sticker.
Then he put down his mobile phone, laid his head on his desk, and prepared to take a short nap.
He always had the habit of taking a lunch nap.
No sleep at noon ant being a dead dog in the afternoon.
As for contacting Jiang Tingyu, he would definitely wait until work hours to do that.
Personal matters, of course, should be done on company ti.
But as Shen Siyuan laid his head on the desk, he found that he wasn't sleepy at all; his mind was exceptionally sharp.
Shen Siyuan had actually discovered this problem last night. Ever since devouring the Soul of the Nine Nether Lord of the Underworld and obtaining Divine Sense, his spirit had beco exceptionally vigorous, and his eyes had beco incredibly bright, as if they could captivate one's soul.
So last night, Shen Siyuan had replaced sleep with Entering ditation. It seed he would have to do the sa for his lunch break.
At this thought, Shen Siyuan felt his entire being falling downward from a void. The process was very slow; his whole body felt light and airy, as if he were weightless.
He finally landed in a lake, but like a fallen leaf, he rested on the water's surface, creating faint ripples. His mind stirred with them, but soon, as the ripples dissipated, the lake returned to its calm, and his mind entered a realm of no-thought.
Ordinary people have too many distracting thoughts and find it difficult to enter such a state. But for Shen Siyuan, who possessed the mories of the Nine Nether Demon Lord, entering this state was as simple as eating and drinking.
In this state, not only could his mind achieve ultimate relaxation, but his body could as well. Even his bodily functions slowed down, as if entering hibernation.
But soon, he was awakened by the ringing of a mobile phone.
Shen Siyuan hurriedly opened his eyes.
It felt as if he had just closed them, and it was already ti to start work again.
This was actually the result of not being able to perceive the passage of ti after entering a state of ditation.
Although no one cared if you slacked off at work, blatantly sleeping at your desk was definitely not acceptable. You had to at least put on a show.
At this ti, those who were sleeping all got up. So stretched, so went to get water, so prepared to go to the bathroom to wash their faces… The entire office instantly ca to life.
Shen Siyuan also got up to pour himself a glass of water. Seeing the Cola on his desk, several people offered to transfer him money for it.
"I've sent it to the Red Envelope Group."
The Red Envelope Group was the Operations Departnt's internal WeChat group that everyone was in.
It was called that because the group was literally only used for collecting red envelopes; there was absolutely no daily communication.
Shen Siyuan didn't stand on ceremony and accepted the red envelopes directly.
Although a bottle of Cola was only three yuan, a deal's a deal.
Besides that, he naturally didn't forget Li Wenjuan's money for the Cold Skin Noodles.
If it were one of the Simps pursuing her, he would have definitely refused her money, but Shen Siyuan clearly wasn't one, so he accepted it with a clear conscience.
The noise in the office quickly died down, and everyone returned to their state of slacking off, each doing their own thing.
Only then did Shen Siyuan pick up his mobile phone and add Jiang Tingyu. She accepted his friend request quickly.
So, Shen Siyuan sent her a very classic conversation starter.
"Hello, are you there?"
"?"
Jiang Tingyu's reply was equally classic.
"I'm Shen Siyuan, Lin Manzhi's colleague. Did she ntion to you?"
"Oh, I know. The 'Fresh and Youthful Young Man' she ntioned."
"Uh~, is that how Sister Manzhi described ?"
Shen Siyuan glanced back at Lin Manzhi.
She was focused on her work and didn't notice his gaze.
However, her description of Shen Siyuan didn't seem to be wrong.
Although he was already twenty-six this year, he actually looked much younger than his age. He had fair skin and clear features, giving off an impression of being inexperienced with the world, clean and fresh—what is commonly known as a Youthful Vibe.
Perhaps because of this, he was particularly popular with the Older Sister Type.
"Yes, she was praising you non-stop to .
Are you really that great? But why did you block from your Monts?"
"I didn't block you from my Monts, I just rarely post anything on them."
Her words reminded Shen Siyuan, so he tapped on her profile and started scrolling through her Monts.
Her Monts feed was very clean—it was either food or various animals at the Aquarium. The only few selfies she had were of her in a Diving Suit and a rmaid performance costu, looking extrely stunning.
Such a beautiful girl definitely wouldn't lack suitors. Shen Siyuan didn't know why she had ended up resorting to a Blind Date.
But they had just t, so it wasn't appropriate for him to ask.
Noticing that most of the food she posted was Sichuan Cuisine, he started a conversation with her on that topic.
Then he learned that she was a Sichuan Girl.
"You're from the Mountain City, how did you end up in Binhai?" Shen Siyuan was a little surprised.
"Because I love the sea. Are you a Binhai local?"
"I guess so?"
"What do you an, 'I guess so'?"
"I was born in Binhai, but my parents aren't from here, so I'm half a Binhai local…"
The two of them started chatting just like that.
The girl seed very talkative and not at all pretentious. They chatted for over half an hour, setting a ti and place to et on Friday night before ending the conversation.
However, from their chat just now, they had gained a preliminary understanding of each other and ford a vague impression. As for whether they were compatible, they would have to wait until they t.
But soon, Lin Manzhi looked up and said with a bit of excitent, "Shen Siyuan, Tingyu has a good impression of you. Go for it."
Apparently, Jiang Tingyu had "reported" the situation to Lin Manzhi right away.
It seed their relationship was a very close one.
Her words were like a stone tossed into a calm lake, and the office instantly erupted with excitent.
The first to react was Chen Hao, who was sitting opposite her, craning his neck.
"What's going on? Sister Lin, you set him up with soone? This is discrimination, you know? Why didn't you introduce soone to ? It doesn't matter if she's pretty, the key is whether she's a Rich Woman? If she is, then I'm really getting angry."
"Good-looking people hang out with other good-looking people. Sister Manzhi's friend must be pretty too."
Now that's so high-level butt-kissing.
"Damn it, Sister Manzhi, I'm angry! Why wouldn't you introduce soone to ? You're like my own sister!"
"The hell? You have a Girlfriend, what are you getting involved for?"
"I've been thinking of getting a new one lately."
"Alright, I'm recording this.
If you don't buy a week's worth of als, I'm sending this to your Girlfriend."
"Pah, you dog, playing dirty like that…"
"Brother Shen, you got a Photo? Let see…"
"Don't show him, or else before you even et her, he'll already start getting off…"
…
For a mont, the office was filled with a cheerful atmosphere.
