Entertainment mogul: Starting his business with the internet

Chapter 2 Thoughts

After her rebirth, Song Ci was a darling of the heavens. She was 1.81 meters tall, with sword-like eyebrows and bright eyes, and was handsome and refined. Moreover, in this life, she was quick-witted and had a photographic memory. From a young age, she was the kind of child that other people's parents always talked about.

With the memories of his previous life, he created more than a dozen best-selling novels, including "Left Ear", "East Palace", "The Best of Us" and "Snow Sword", at the age of 17. He was already a well-known young writer in the literary world and achieved both fame and fortune.

After being reborn, thanks to her photographic memory, she easily passed the entrance exam for the finance major at Peking University last month, and her future looks bright.

"Yi-yi, I'm here!"

The rustling sound of high-heeled leather shoes descending the stairs, accompanied by a crisp shout, reached Song Ci's ears.

He looked up at the sound and saw a smiling, vibrant young woman walking towards him.

The girl wore a white polka-dot jacket and a matching polka-dot skirt. Her dark, curly hair casually draped over her collarbone, and exquisite necklaces and earrings adorned her neck and earlobes. Her makeup was like morning dew, and her face, like that of a first love, was crystal clear, captivating all who saw her.

It was his childhood sweetheart in this life, the future top star, Liu Shishi!

Standing on the staircase steps, Liu Shishi carried a delicate little leather bag in one hand and slightly lifted her skirt with the other. She turned gracefully and elegantly, showcasing the beautiful figure of a dancer. She asked the boy in front of her with a charming and innocent expression, "Does it look good, Yi Yi?"

The girl looks stunning today. Her skin is as white as snow, and her delicate nose and mouth exude a serene and elegant charm. Her long, slightly wavy hair is casually draped over her shoulders, radiating a unique allure.

In Song Ci's eyes, Liu Shishi was usually like a tomboy, but today, seeing her so gentle and charming, the stark contrast stunned Song Ci. Hearing the girl's question, he subconsciously replied, "Beautiful, so pretty!"

Hearing the praise, Liu Shishi's eyes curved into crescent moons with joy. She was secretly pleased with herself, thinking, "That scoundrel of a man is captivated by me. It was worth spending over an hour getting ready. I'll win him over sooner or later."

During this time, Ms. Liu had something on her mind. Three months ago, her teacher from the Beijing Dance Academy told her that her body was not suitable for dancing and that she should give up ballet and make plans for the future.

Having been her parents' darling since childhood and never having experienced setbacks or hardships, Liu Shishi was completely stunned. In those days, whenever she thought about her path as a ballet dancer being cut off and her more than ten years of hard work going to waste, she couldn't help but burst into tears and feel heartbroken.

Fortunately, with the care and encouragement of her parents and the comfort and companionship of her childhood sweetheart Song Ci, she gradually emerged from the low point in her life and regained her vitality.

It was during those dark days that Song Ci's care for Liu Shishi made her confront her own heart. The young man's gentleness, thoughtfulness, and accommodation made her completely open her heart.

The first stirrings of love in her heart were like the first rays of sunlight, warm and delicate, silently illuminating her soul. She realized she had unknowingly fallen for this boy she had grown up with. But she discovered a problem: seventeen years of living together day and night, their familiarity had left Song Ci with no romantic feelings for her.

In the past month, even though he had made changes and expressed his attitude through body language several times, Song Ci remained unresponsive, as if he were a block of wood. He still treated her like the little sister who followed him around all those years ago, or the good brother he used to joke around with.

This made Ms. Liu lose her confidence; she felt that she really had no attraction to that jerk of a man.
Liu Shishi felt somewhat helpless. If things continued like this, Song Ci would be busy with his studies at university, and the two of them would have fewer opportunities to meet. If they didn't establish a romantic relationship during the summer vacation, and Song Ci met other girls at university, her hopes would be even slimmer.

Several times she wanted to put aside her girlish reserve and take the initiative to confess her feelings, but she was afraid that if Song Ci really didn't have the same feelings, it would make things awkward for both of them and they wouldn't be able to remain friends. So she kept holding back, hoping to use the summer vacation to let Song Ci feel her feelings through subtle expressions.

Liu Shishi never doubted the charm of Song Ci's men. Her childhood sweetheart was handsome and refined, and his scholarly air, cultivated through years of writing, was particularly attractive to girls. Many girls wrote him love letters when he was young and in high school. As a college student, he was in the prime of his youth, and there were bound to be women pursuing him at Peking University.

Her mother told her that if she liked something, she should bravely pursue it, otherwise, if she missed it, it might be a lifelong regret. Even if she might not be able to grow old with Song Ci in the future, she didn't want to leave any regrets in her youth. She had to try something exciting to see the results.

Therefore, Liu Shishi dressed up specially today, wearing newly bought clothes and jewelry. Sure enough, the effect was remarkable. For the first time, Song Ci showed her a fascinated look. Miss Liu was in high spirits. It turns out that the scoundrel of a man wasn't completely unmoved by her.

Liu Shishi moved gracefully to Song Ci's side, naturally took his arm, and looked up to ask, "Where are we going today, Yi Yi?"

Their arms touched, and the intimacy of their skin sent a shiver through Song Ci's heart. It was as if a subtle electric current was slowly passing through her, making her feel tingly and numb. It was as if the strings of a musical instrument were being plucked, creating a different melody, and a strange emotion arose in her heart.

Since his rebirth, Song Ci and Liu Shishi have been childhood sweethearts, always together, but Song Ci has no romantic feelings for the young girl.

As a child, Song Ci saw the soft and cute Liu Shishi and, with the added filter of her past life, indulged and cared for her, always treating her like a cute little sister.

As the two grew older, when Song Ci entered junior high school, Liu Shishi began to behave like a boy, with a forthright personality, especially when he laughed, which was particularly unrestrained. He was usually very easygoing, and the two gradually became good brothers and buddies. Sometimes when they joked and played around, he would casually call Liu Shishi "Poet Master" or "Haha Liu." Currently, his feelings for Liu Shishi are familial and platonic, but not romantic.

Song Ci had noticed Liu Shishi's change. The young lady's attitude towards him had changed drastically recently. When they were together, Liu Shishi spoke to him more gently, and her posture while walking and eating was more dignified than before. She was becoming more and more like a lady in his presence.

It's just that he couldn't change his mindset of Song Ci after seventeen years of long-term thinking, and it was only for a short time. He had never realized that Liu Shishi had romantic feelings for him before, so he silently ignored the changes in Liu Shishi and just thought that the little sister next door had grown up. He even felt a sense of pride that his daughter had grown up.
