SCHS - Chapter 104

Chapter 104

Chapter 104

Relying on her own dating experience, Bai Jing keenly caught a faint whiff of romance in the air, her heart filled with shock. While she was still guessing who Wen Shixue liked, and who could possibly win over Vice President Qin, these two had already started dating behind everyone's backs!

The answer to Chenfeng's unsolved mystery was actually within the question itself. Who could have possibly guessed?!

She was dumbfounded, only able to ask herself in confusion: Is this the legendary 'internal consumption'...

Just then, she saw Wen Shixue slowly turn her head to look at her. She didn't say anything, just lightly raised an eyebrow. Those clear, bright eyes were like a mirror, reflecting all the thoughts in one's heart.

Without hesitation, she pursed her lips and made a zipping motion with her hand, indicating that she would keep it a secret.

If asked what the stupidest thing in the world was, she felt that going against Wen Shixue would definitely be at the top of the list, because it was tantamount to digging one's own grave.

Wen Shixue smiled at her with curved eyes, still saying nothing. She turned her head and gave Qin Zhen a playful wink, shaking her phone: "Manwei agreed."

Qin Zhen nodded. The two walked out of the conference room together. Wen Shixue said with a smile, "Now Secretary Bai knows."

Qin Zhen gently "Mm-hmm"ed, open and composed, showing no sign of displeasure. After a moment of silence, she took out her phone and opened the chat group for their four dormmates.

[Qin Zhen]: I have something to confess

[Qin Zhen]: My current boss is my girlfriend

Yu Hanhan, as someone in the know, sent a long string of "hahahaha," calling her "Emperor's Son-in-law" and "Crown Princess," perfectly embodying the annoyingness even through the screen.

Xue Yu and Song Zimeng were both shocked and bewildered when they saw the message, even briefly losing their ability to react. One didn't even notice the water overflowing from her cup, while the other's finger pressed down on the enter key, creating several blank pages.

After they recovered, the two replied in horror.

[Xue Yu]: ???????

[Song Zimeng]: I'm dumbfounded...

Wen Shixue held her phone, reading the chat history and chuckling, when she heard Qin Zhen ask, "What do you want for dinner?"

Wen Shixue replied without thinking, "Minced meat and eggplant." Then she added, "I want to cook it myself."

Qin Zhen liked eggplant, so Wen Shixue started learning to cook by focusing on eggplant dishes. Now that she had finally mastered it, she was naturally eager to show off her skills a few times to make her wife happy.

Seeing her eagerness, Qin Zhen let her have her way.

Wen Shixue smiled and returned the phone to her. Xue Yu and Song Zimeng's message bombardment followed, full of disbelief, at one moment doubting she was the real Qin Zhen, at another suspecting she had lost a game of truth or dare.

—After all, that was Wen Shixue!

...

On the day of Jiang Manwei's shoot, Wen Shixue personally came to the set.

Jiang Manwei sat in front of the makeup mirror. There was no one else in the room. She slowly opened her eyes and looked at the person sitting behind her in the mirror, asking with a smile, "Vice President Qin didn't come today?"

Wen Shixue crossed her arms, smiling, "She's discussing a project. What's wrong, Teacher Jiang, missing my Vice President Qin?"

Jiang Manwei teased her, "Wouldn't dare, wouldn't dare. I'm afraid of ending up on President Wen's hit list."

She had already learned about Wen Shixue and Qin Zhen's relationship through Xu Jianfan, including the fact that Wen Lianchang and Meng Yuezhu had approved. She sincerely blessed them, and also sincerely envied them.

She was a successful actress who spoke with her work. She was free to date and didn't need to worry about letting down her fans. But with Xu Jianfan's father's temper, they didn't know when they would be able to get past the Xu family's hurdle.

Wen Shixue's gaze lingered on her bracelet. It wasn't a Chenfeng product; it was a unique design that Xu Jianfan had put a lot of thought into. Given that Pan He was also present, the fact that she dared to wear the bracelet so openly indicated that Pan He was likely aware of their relationship and had chosen to keep it a secret for now.

Then Wen Shixue heard her suddenly let out a long sigh, so she pretended to pinch her fingers and said, "Let me calculate why Miss Jiang is sighing. Ah, it turns out you are troubled by love."

Jiang Manwei rested her chin on her hand, smiling as she looked at her in the mirror, "Master, you've calculated so accurately, why don't you help us calculate our future?"

Following her memory of the script, Wen Shixue calmly and confidently summarized their ending: "You two are a match made in heaven. Everything now is just a small obstacle. Once you overcome it, the skies will be clear and the weather fair, and you will have a lifetime of happiness."

The male and female leads were destined for a happy ending. Xu Rangshan and his wife agreeing was just a matter of time. Even if they weren't the protagonists, Wen Shixue believed that with a little time, Xu Rangshan and his wife would naturally come around and agree to their relationship. After all, everything Xu Rangshan and his wife did for Xu Jianfan was based on love, even if their methods weren't perfect.

Jiang Manwei had no idea she was the female lead. Seeing how convincingly Wen Shixue spoke, she couldn't help but find it amusing, "You speak with such conviction, what is our Master's name?"

Wen Shixue tossed her long hair, saying smoothly, "Surname Qin, just call me Master Qin."

Jiang Manwei: "...?"

Jiang Manwei suddenly remembered what Xu Jianfan had told her and couldn't help but narrow her eyes at Wen Shixue, smiling, "You're not going around using Vice President Qin's surname to deceive people, are you? And using her as a shield? Is that how you tricked Jianfan into coming to Chenfeng back then?"

Wen Shixue looked completely unbothered, "Yes, I am."

Jiang Manwei was caught off guard by her honesty and found it even funnier, "But the situation is different now. Aren't you afraid Vice President Qin will turn on you?"

Wen Shixue said casually, "You said it yourself, times are different now. Of course, I'm not using her as a shield anymore."

"Then what is it?" Jiang Manwei asked.

Wen Shixue declared righteously, "Taking my wife's surname is love!"

Thinking about it carefully, she felt that her past self, who had already used Qin Qin's surname, was truly prescient—my wife was by my side all along!

Jiang Manwei applauded her sincerely, "Wen Shixue, you truly live up to your name."

Wen Shixue, "You flatter me, you flatter me."

Jiang Manwei picked up the lipstick on the table to touch up her makeup. Remembering the live stream in a few days, she casually asked, "Has Chenfeng decided what the content of the live stream will be?"

Wen Shixue casually flipped through a magazine beside her, "You can treat it like recommending clothes and makeup to your sisters and girlfriends, just chatting in front of the camera. That way it's more approachable."

Jiang Manwei nodded, "Then you'll have to prepare a sister for me. I can't just talk to the air, can I?" After saying that, she put down her lipstick and raised an eyebrow, looking at Wen Shixue in the mirror, "How about... our President Wen comes on personally?"

Wen Shixue, who was just assigned a task: "?"

She was actually being assigned a task for once?

Jiang Manwei analyzed it for her, "If you find someone else, Chenfeng will have another expense. Among the people at Chenfeng, I only know you. Besides, you're beautiful and the boss of Chenfeng. Appearing on camera will definitely attract more viewers."

"Tell me yourself, isn't it more profitable if you appear in person?"

Wen Shixue: "..."

That makes so much sense.

She actually couldn't refute it.

...

Chenfeng's official Weibo account posted a preview for the live stream. As soon as the names of the two people responsible for the stream were announced, it caused a stir. Many netizens were intensely curious about Wen Shixue's appearance, and some subtly mentioned Qin Zhen's name.

@ShriveledWalletLonelyMe: Jiang Manwei and who???

@CanIComeToYourHouseAndEatTwoSpoons?: Make way, make way, Chenfeng is about to go big

@WhiteChocolateBall: Let me see what the boss looks like, whose subordinates are more divine than gods!

@IWannaPlantTreesInYourHeart: If President Wen can't make it, I'm okay with Qin Jie doing some fan service, I'm not picky [shy][shy][shy]

@DreamingOfBeingARichSecondGenWhoDoesNothing: I second that @LetMeEatSomeMelonToo!: I'll risk my life to +1

Under everyone's anticipation, the day of the live stream finally arrived.

The production team specially decorated a room with a girlish atmosphere. A white fluffy rug was laid under the coffee table, sofas were adorned with stuffed animals of various sizes, and the table was filled with jewelry boxes, small and delicious pastries, and black tea, like a tea party.

The live stream began with Jiang Manwei. She wore a light polka dot dress, her face fair and radiant. She sat on the rug as if she were at home, leaning against the sofa, chatting naturally and skillfully with the screen. Struck by her beauty, the comments in the live stream room instantly grew at a visible speed.

Wen Shixue wore a white overall dress with a fluffy, soft skirt, paired with a white lace V-neck chiffon short-sleeved top that highlighted her delicate, straight collarbones. Her skin was as white as silver snow. Her soft, loose black hair was adorned with a red bow headband, making her look as quiet as a docile rabbit when she wasn't speaking.

Qin Zhen had to admit, her little devil was very suited to a gentle look, which was extremely deceptive. No wonder Zhang Tianhao had compared her to the genuinely quiet Lin Jiayu before.

Wen Shixue stood with her hands behind her back, looking at her obediently, "Then I'll go now, wait for me for a bit."

Qin Zhen nodded, her gaze as gentle as autumn water, until she saw Wen Shixue pull out a can of cola from behind her back.

Qin Zhen: "..."

...She's not forgetting to drink cola even now?

The atmosphere in the live stream room was already heated. Wen Shixue appeared calmly and composedly under everyone's anticipation. She sat down next to Jiang Manwei with a relaxed demeanor, raised her eyes, and greeted the camera, "Hello everyone, I'm Wen Shixue."

Her cheeks were flushed, she was poised and generous, radiant and captivating.

The live stream room instantly erupted. Comments scrolled by like a wheel, dazzling the eyes.

—President Wen is too beautiful! She's dressed so obediently! I'm screenshotting like crazy!

—Understood, people who aren't good-looking aren't worthy of entering Chenfeng

—I'll confidently say hello directly, Hi, wifey

—President Wen, please don't be so strict about gender, give me a chance

—Sorry Chenfeng, from today onwards I'm no longer your 'mom fan', but the CEO's wife—Although the comments are scrolling fast, I still know someone is dreaming again, I've got the chicken coop ready

Wen Shixue was already contemplating drinking cola from a teacup, not noticing that her appearance had caused another surge in popularity in the live stream room.

Qin Zhen sat outside the frame, quietly watching the computer screen, her expression quite cold. Now it was her turn to face the thousands upon thousands of love rivals.

A moment later, a confident and bold "wifey" suddenly rushed into her field of vision. She slowly lowered her eyes, rubbing her forehead with a headache.

Are young people like this nowadays...

She wanted to go public even more.
