When winter comes, Ding Yue likes to stay under the duvet, unwilling to get up in the early mornings.
The winters in Mist City are simply too cold.
Fortunately, in Ding Yue’s apartment, the central heating keeps the room temperature comfortable.
But, when he thinks about how he will shiver from the cold once he steps out of the door, Ding Yue is not eager to get out of bed.
Ultimately, "work" provided Ding Yue with the motivation to get up. As a worker...no, Ding Yue is no longer a laborer.
As a university builder, Ding Yue has to keep his spirits high, working hard to construct and develop Mist City Arts and Science University.
Today, Ding Yue’s primary task is to show the science fiction novel "Wandering Earth", written by the intelligent robot "Big White", to director Su Yangfan.
"Wen Ruohan, have you gone to the cafeteria yet?"
After reluctantly getting out of bed, Ding Yue picked up his mobile phone and sent a voice message to his secretary Wen Ruohan.
Everything, big and small, in Ding Yue’s current lifestyle and job, is handled by Wen Ruohan, his dependable private secretary.
Ding Yue wants to have his hot breakfast the moment he arrives at the cafeteria.
Therefore, he asked Wen Ruohan. If she had already gone to the cafeteria, she should get their breakfast.
"Principal Ding, are you awake? I’m on my way to the second cafeteria. What would you like to eat? I’ll buy it and bring it to you."
Wen Ruohan quickly replied to Principal Ding.
For any of Principal Ding’s messages, Wen Ruohan immediately replies, not daring to delay.
After all, she holds a high-paying secretary job, even before graduation, all thanks to Principal Ding.
Since the day she became Principal Ding’s private secretary, Wen Ruohan made a decision to work hard and provide all necessary services for Principal Ding.
"No need, I’m coming over in a bit. If you are already in the second cafeteria, get me some breakfast, the usual."
After replying to Wen Ruohan’s voice message, Ding Yue put his phone aside and went to freshen up.
About fifteen minutes later.
Ding Yue arrived at the second cafeteria. At their usual spot, he saw Wen Ruohan.
Not only that, he saw An Yujia sitting beside Wen Ruohan. They were happily chatting while eating breakfast.
Though An Yujia is the CEO of Feiyue Group, her office is located at Mist City Arts and Science University. Hence, her meals are naturally at the university.
Moreover, every meal in the university cafeteria, including breakfast, lunch, dinner, and late-night snacks, is delicious.
This morning An Yujia, cooking breakfast at the second cafeteria, happened to meet Wen Ruohan.
Wen Ruohan considers An as her older sister, and they naturally have breakfast together if they meet.
"How about you two having breakfast together? Made a date? There’s still people making breakfast dates these days?"
Ding Yue smiled after seeing An Yujia and Wen Ruohan. He walked over and sat down.
The breakfast Ding Yue prefers was already prepared on the dining table.
"No, we ran into each other," Wen Ruohan replied.
However, Wen Ruohan’s response seemed defensive. If you didn’t know, you would think something was going on between Wen Ruohan and An Yujia.
"Is it alright if we discuss some work stuff over breakfast?"
An Yujia brought up some work stuff that she wanted to inform Principal Ding about after he had sat down.
"Sure, go ahead." Ding Yue shrugged. His mood was still relatively good, so he listened to what An Yujia had to report on the work.
"Yesterday Principal Ding, you asked me to look for someone. I contacted some friends from the Wharton School of Business after I got back. Most of them said they are not willing to leave America and quit their current jobs."
An Yujia was eating plain porridge as she spoke.
"Ah, as expected." Ding Yue sighed, "To these high achievers, it seems America has better opportunities. However, our Xia Country is experiencing rapid development. There are many opportunities here too."
What Ding Yue said was not false. Although America has its advantages, Xia Country has its strengths as well.
However, many high achieving students studying overseas still believe that America offers them more opportunities.
"Yes, Principal Ding. I did mention this to them too," An Yujia nodded, then suddenly said, "I contacted a girl I know. She is currently working at Morgan Group in America but wants to change her working environment."
At her words, Ding Yue’s eyes widened, "How is it? This younger schoolmate of yours... No, does she want to come to Mist City Arts and Science University?"
Subconsciously, Ding Yue wanted to ask how attractive An’s younger schoolmate was.
He was definitely a lecherous person!
"My younger schoolmate’s name is Chen Yilin. She doesn’t know much about our country, let alone Feiyue Group or Mist City Arts and Science University."
