When she received a message from Bo Jinchuan saying that he had boarded the flight, Shen Fanxing's mood pummeled again.
Xu Qingzhi had been missing in action the entire day. She was either meeting clients or slogging her life away inside her office.
Shen Fanxing put on a white lab coat, and began to conduct experiments on new products in the research and development lab.
She left the laboratory before noon. Just as she entered her office, Xu Qingzhi barged in.
"Let's go, Fanxing! To make up for yesterday's lunch."
Even her words were like a machine gun, firing rapidly without any delay.
"It's only a lunch. Why are you making such a big fuss?"
"I have to eat lunch no matter how busy I am. I'm not a robot. There's a new restaurant in the east part of the city. Let's go and try the food."
…
Xu Qingzhi chatted with Shen Fanxing as she drove.
"Look at us, we're finally working together again. We're in the same company but we don't see each other more than a few times a day. This is really…"
She let out a huge sigh filled with endless regret.
Shen Fanxing's heart felt heavy.
"Yes, we've grown up and reached the age where we should take responsibility and support ourselves."
"Indeed… I just recalled that it will be T college's 100th anniversary soon. Let's attend the event together. I haven't seen the rest of our classmates in years. Let's see how everyone is doing! And I want to see if my idol has maintained his looks!"
Shen Fanxing grinned in response. Qingzhi's words were veiled…
T college…
It was common knowledge that T College in Ping Cheng City was one of the top ranked schools in the country.
With a unique education system, authoritative and experienced figures as teachers, and a complete and well-rounded variety of subjects, it was one of the top choices for many affluent families.
Since it was the centennial anniversary of T College, they were bound to bump into some classmates from T University.
Xu Qingzhi had deliberately avoided bringing that up. But how could Shen Fanxing miss that?
Shen Fanxing didn't respond for a long time. Xu Qingzhi gave her a look, her expression grim.
"Fanxing, we grew up in Ping Cheng City and our social circles are all formed in school. What's more, you didn't do anything wrong. What's there to escape from?"
"No, let me think about it."
"There's no need to consider…"
Xu Qingzhi muttered, causing Shen Fanxing to smile. "Speaking of your idol… Qingzhi, are you referring to… Li Mo?"
Xu Qingzhi pursed her lips but she didn't say anything.
"He's in another city. Will he be there?"
"Of course! There are so many people who will make a rare appearance during the school's anniversary celebration!"
There was more than one person being mentioned.
The newly opened restaurant had excellent publicity, attracting many customers.
Xu Qingzhi had reserved a table beforehand and so, they strode directly to their table.
Not long after Shen Fanxing and Xu Qingzhi had started eating, a slender figure materialized beside them.
"Sister, you're here for lunch?"
Shen Fanxing looked up to see Shen Qianrou smiling at her.
Such pretense…
Shen Fanxing turned to look ahead and indeed, she saw Su Heng clad in a suit walking in their direction.
She gave a sarcastic sneer as Su Heng walked closer.
"Fanxing…" Su Heng was equally surprised to bump into her here.
Noticing that Shen Fanxing didn't intend to talk to them, Shen Qianrou looked at Su Heng aggrievedly as she bit her lips.
"Sister, there is a family dinner the day after tomorrow at a private room at a restaurant. Grandma wants you to attend…"
Shen Qianrou paused, afraid that Shen Fanxing would reject her.
"They should be discussing about the company's anniversary.. Sister, Grandpa had given you a lot of shares back then. So he wants you to pay more attention to the company…"
