I am not just a tycoon-Chapter 691 - 420 MVP, Flattery Studies, Counteract Heavenly Gang
This security company is within the top three in terms of scale in the province.
There's a lot of specific information online, such as revenue, profit, and partner enterprises, but the quality of the information is mixed, and it's outdated. It still requires the law firm to conduct due diligence and issue an investigation report for accuracy.
But knowing System's nature, even if it's not a positive asset, it wouldn't be in a loss-making state.
These two companies, representing law and security respectively, not only provide Shen Yuan with two lines of defense but also mean that he has access to an increasing number of resources.
Shen Yuan's eyes sparkled with joy, and he couldn't help but exclaim in admiration, "System rocks!"
After pacing around the room twice, allowing his mood to settle, Shen Yuan went back to bed.
Even though his businesses are growing, he still needs sleep.
Feeling refreshed and full of energy after a 40-minute nap, Shen Yuan changed into his sports outfit and shoes and went downstairs to where Ji Ya was working on a spreadsheet, asking, "Fancy a workout?"
Ji Ya, who was wearing glasses and working on her laptop, turned around in confusion and then her cheeks flushed as she said, "Boss, I'm not really up for it today."
Shen Yuan laughed: "What are you talking about? I mean a proper workout."
Ji Ya's cheeks grew even redder, and her curvaceous butt under the pencil skirt twisted as she said: "Even for a proper workout, I'm not... really up for it."
Shen Yuan slapped his forehead: "Look at me, I totally forgot. Well, I'll exercise alone then!"
Having Ji Ya accompany him in running or working out with equipment would likely result in a bloody scene.
Just as Shen Yuan was about to leave, Ji Ya quickly called after him: "Boss, Fu Yingzi reported that the heads of Silver Shield Security and the law firm's director would like to schedule a meeting. When would you be free?"
"There aren't any plans for today, right?"
"No, this afternoon and evening are your personal time."
"Then schedule it after my workout," said Shen Yuan.
"Alright."
Ji Ya nodded and then opened a spreadsheet on her computer: "However, I must remind you, it's been a while since you've seen Su Xuewei. Do you think you could find some time to see her today?"
The house steward was again making her presence felt. Hearing the name Su Xuewei made Shen Yuan space out for a moment.
It seems like he had neglected her for some time.
Since the villa was renovated, Shen Yuan had barely been in contact with her.
She isn't one of those NPCs who would curry favor with Shen Yuan; she's introverted and shy by nature.
Other NPCs would send Shen Yuan videos and selfies over the mountains, or at the very least maintain contact through messages.
But Su Xuewei? This girl sticks to her routine of sending one message a week, rain or shine.
Because there are so many messages, Shen Yuan often overlooks her messages due to others overshadowing them.
And the messages she sends sound more like reports. For example, the one from last week:
"Shen Yuan, good morning. The weather is nice today. I took my mom and younger brother for a walk in the community; the sun was just right, and the breeze wasn't too dry. My brother likes it here, and so does mom, but there aren't many people coming over for a chat anymore. Fortunately, I bought a phone for mom, so she can chat with relatives and Aunt Zhang from the tube-shaped apartment building when she's bored."
And from the week before that:
"Shen Yuan, good evening. I just got off work. I had a design proposal today; it was quite complicated, so I stayed at the office until after 9 p.m...."
Her words are always simple; she never expresses missing him. After flicking through several pages, Shen Yuan felt somewhat heartbroken.
After pondering, Shen Yuan said: "After meeting with the law firm director and the head of the security company today, I'll go see her."
"Okay."
Hearing that Shen Yuan would visit Su Xuewei, Ji Ya even felt a small sense of achievement.
In the memo spreadsheet, she changed the red mark next to Su Xuewei back to normal and then noted today's date in the meeting time column.
Hmm, no more red marks for the time being.
Ji Ya, looking at all the girls with normal labels, showed a satisfied expression.
She felt a bit like a class teacher, where the last student in the class has finally achieved passing grades without holding anyone back.
"Is there a special spreadsheet for this?"
Suddenly, Shen Yuan's voice came from behind her, causing Ji Ya to jump in fright as she covered her chest, saying, "Boss, you scared me to death."
"I learned it from you; you also like to quietly appear behind me. But you have to keep this spreadsheet confidential, no one else but you and I can see it," Shen Yuan said.
Ji Ya nodded bashfully: "Okay, boss, my computer is password-protected, and both the spreadsheet and memos are locked."
"That's good. But..."
Shen Yuan leaned in, focusing on the spreadsheet: "Why isn't your name on this spreadsheet?"
"I just didn't think I should add it..."
Ji Ya suddenly felt a bit guilty.
"Add it, and include the number of times I 'grace' you; let's see where you rank," said Shen Yuan.
Shen Yuan looked at the monthly leaderboard within the spreadsheet, surprised to see Qiao Lei, Liew Menglu, and Lin Yuchang at the top, with the class belle not even making the top three.
It's been a while since he'd visited the class belle; he wondered how her flower shop was doing.
"Boss, if you included me, I'd... probably be in the top five," said Ji Ya.
"That can't be right... Huh? It seems that's actually the case," Shen Yuan mused.
Initially Shen Yuan thought Ji Ya could only be at the bottom, but on closer thought, Ji Ya had not only teamed up with Liew Menglu before but also typically joined groups with Qiao Lei and Long Jinghan, including for mahjong nights where she'd join in for the five-person game.

Not to mention the times when he was sleeping alone at home and he'd occasionally invite her to warm the bed.
Realizing this, Shen Yuan patted her on the shoulder: "How is it, working for me is quite blissful, right? You really got a bargain."
