Ji Xizhi saw Chu Ang’s message, and her hand paused on closing the laptop.
Then she sat back down and typed a reply.
Ji Xizhi: I don’t know.
Chu Ang quickly replied: Junior, even though you’re only in your first year of research, you still need to take your own future seriously! (pounding chest.jpg)
Ji Xizhi: I just sent two draft papers to the teacher.
Chu Ang: ...... Senior, we’re from the same school, how about paying some attention to my future?
Ji Xizhi watched Chu Ang effortlessly switch how he addressed her on WeChat, she was already getting used to it.
After all, she had been both a senior and a junior before.
Ji Xizhi thought for a moment, then proactively asked: What’s up with your future?
Being asked this by Ji Xizhi, Chu Ang immediately felt a strong sense of camaraderie.
He quickly replied: There’s a banquet tomorrow inviting quite a few teachers and students from the academy. Our teacher has one invitation, I wanted to ask if you’re going? If you’re not going...
Chu Ang didn’t finish the sentence, but the meaning was obvious.
He wants to go, but there’s only one invitation.
Ji Xizhi: Is it the Feng Family’s banquet?
Chu Ang: You know about it?
A few days ago, when visiting the forum, that Xue Fan mentioned sending her an invitation, but she declined since she wasn’t interested in banquets.
Unexpectedly, Chu Ang was also talking about the same banquet now.
Ji Xizhi replied directly: I’m not going, you can go yourself!
Seeing this, Chu Ang felt a surge of excitement!
He has been under the teacher’s guidance for several years, and despite seeing other seniors and juniors, Ji Xizhi was the most favored by the teacher.
For this banquet’s spot, typically, it would be him or Ji Xizhi unless something unexpected happened.
Chu Ang had already found out that some senior researchers would attend this banquet, he wanted to seize the opportunity to ask for advice and expand his network.
So he asked Ji Xizhi in advance, considering that many students close to graduation were eyeing this opportunity.
Even though Ji Xizhi was only in her first research year, if she wanted to go, Chu Ang didn’t plan to hog the spot, he would just think of another solution.
But unexpectedly, Ji Xizhi declined so straightforwardly, Chu Ang was moved on the spot.
Chu Ang typed vigorously: Such loyalty! When senior brother comes back, I’ll definitely be there for you...
Chu Ang wanted to write ’help with your paper,’ then looked at the previous few lines of chat, silently deleted it, and replaced it with ’share experiences with you!’
Ji Xizhi: ... No need, I’m going to sleep.
She saw Chu Ang reverting to his previous address, shook her head, closed her laptop, and got ready to take a shower and sleep.
The live recording of this episode of ’Life Experience’ was scheduled for early the next morning. It was initially set for tonight, but due to rain in recent days and rehearsals, they hadn’t been able to go jogging for morning exercises.
Uncle Wang’s reputation was still being ridiculed, so Director Wang decided to end the live broadcast after the morning exercise the following morning.
Director Wang: No matter what, I absolutely can’t let my lifetime reputation, uh, glory be ruined by this show.
The other guests knew this as well, so everyone went to bed after showering tonight to prepare for the early start tomorrow.
When Ji Xizhi went upstairs after taking a shower, everyone was already asleep, and the lights were off.
She silently climbed into bed and fell asleep.
Zou Li had waited the whole night and finally saw Ji Xizhi coming upstairs to bed.
Zou Li quietly flipped open her phone from under her pillow and whispered, "Ji Xizhi, don’t go to sleep yet."
Zou Li took an early shower and got into bed, and while lying on the bed playing on her phone, she saw the trending news about Ji Xizhi’s fan benefits.
Zou Li had only been on the show for a week, not long, but she already sensed that Ji Xizhi wasn’t as bad as rumored, well, not bad... actually, Ji Xizhi was quite nice.
She hadn’t met Ji Xizhi before and had only heard rumors; now that she met her, her perspective gradually opened up.
With Ji Xizhi’s personality, there’s no man in the entire entertainment circle who is worthy of her!
And even if by some long shot there is a match, it surely can’t be Ji Fengyuan. With Ji Xizhi’s demeanor, she looks capable of punching through a CEO’s head, she simply couldn’t imagine how Ji Xizhi could be expected to fawn over anyone.
