Song Yansheng nodded thoughtfully. He had some impression of Lin Junyi, but the brief glimpse earlier hadn’t brought him to mind immediately.

He asked, "So how did those two get together? Are they dating?"

Shi Nuan pursed her lips, wanting to say no, but she wasn’t entirely sure.

After all, she knew that Lv Nan Nan liked Lin Junyi.

Although Lin Junyi liked Chu Jingyun, it was hard to say if he might gradually develop feelings for Lv Nan Nan!

After a pause, Shi Nuan said, "I’m not sure either, but I don’t think so!"

Song Yansheng didn’t want to concern himself with unimportant people. For him, enjoying dinner with Shi Nuan was the priority, everything else was secondary.

He said, "If that’s the case, you don’t need to concern yourself. It’s ultimately someone else’s business, not ours!"

Shi Nuan nodded. It was indeed none of her business.

Besides, both Lin Junyi and Lv Nan Nan were adults and knew what they were doing.

A ten-year gap between two people, even if they were together, wasn’t a big deal.

While Shi Nuan and Song Yansheng waited for their food, Lv Nan Nan and Lin Junyi sat down at their table.

Lin Junyi handed the menu to Lv Nan Nan and said, "You order, choose whatever you like!"

Lv Nan Nan glanced at him and didn’t hesitate, reaching out to take the menu.

Lv Nan Nan quickly ordered a few dishes, reciting them to Lin Junyi and asking if it was okay.

Lin Junyi was somewhat surprised, as the dishes Lv Nan Nan ordered were coincidentally his favorites.

He already knew Lv Nan Nan had an interest in him; there were many girls who had confessed to him at school, and Lv Nan Nan was just one of them.

But now Lin Junyi felt that this particular "one" might be a bit different from the others.

He suddenly questioned whether inviting her today was the right choice.

But, right or wrong, he had already brought her here, so what could he do?

He nodded slightly and said, "That’s fine!"

Lv Nan Nan gave him a sweet smile and then handed the menu to the waiter.

After the waiter left, Lv Nan Nan looked at Lin Junyi sitting opposite, who seemed somewhat uneasy, and asked, "Mr. Lin, are you... uncomfortable?"

Lin Junyi shook his head, "No... I’m fine!"

Lv Nan Nan "oh"ed softly, then asked Lin Junyi, "So Mr. Lin, why exactly did you ask me here today? You mentioned on the phone that you needed a favor..."

Lin Junyi was silent for a moment before he spoke.

Lv Nan Nan blinked curiously and asked, "What is it, Mr. Lin?"

Lin Junyi frowned slightly, took a breath, and then spoke: "I do have something I need your help with, though the person I initially intended to ask was Shi Nuan. But since the Shi Family is holding a shareholders meeting today, I figured she must be busy, so I had to turn to you instead..."

Lv Nan Nan’s heart skipped a beat, but she didn’t show it on her face.

She smiled and said, "So it’s related to the Shi Group, Mr. Lin?"

Lin Junyi did not deny it, nodding, "Yes."

Lv Nan Nan asked, "What do you want to know, Mr. Lin?"

Lin Junyi pressed his lips together before saying, "Recently, I accepted an invitation from the Shi Group to write a paper on their data. I’ve already connected with some of their staff, and they are willing to cooperate with me, providing most of the data.

However, what I want to see more is not just what they give me, but the experiences of working in the Shi Group. I thought about doing personal research at Shi Group.

But since the school has arranged for me to attend a seminar abroad, that leaves me with less time to prepare this paper, and naturally no time for personal research, which is why I thought of Shi Nuan and you working at Shi Group..."

Lv Nan Nan understood: "So, Mr. Lin, you want me to share my experiences from working at Shi Group with you?"

Lin Junyi nodded, "At the moment, this is the quickest way. Although Shi Group is providing me access to staff from various departments for research, to ensure the data is authentic and reliable, I’d rather ask people personally. You all are my students, and I trust you more." 𝙧𝙚𝙚𝔀𝒆𝓫𝓷𝙤𝓿𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝙤𝓶

Lv Nan Nan pursed her lips, then smiled gently and said, "Sure, Mr. Lin, I’m willing and happy to help you, but I’m a bit slow, so you’ll still need to tell me specifically what I need to do..."
