Good news! My sister Lin finally stopped being abstract today!

After half a month, Lin Zhihao and his team's project finally entered the verification phase.

Everyone has the opportunity to take a break for a while.

The professor said, "Thank you all for your hard work these past few days. Go back and get some rest. I'll give you three days off."

"Yay!" Lin Zhihao was overjoyed. Finally, she could get some rest. She had been leaving early and returning late these past few days, and she felt like she wasn't even herself anymore.

As soon as the group meeting ended, Lin Zhihao couldn't wait to run outside. She had an appointment with someone today, hehe.

Chen Man frowned when he saw her run away without looking back, and then lowered his head to organize the documents.

The old professor could tell from his expression that something was wrong with the young man, but he couldn't interfere in the affairs of young people. Besides, Lin was indeed extraordinary, and after spending more time with her, he felt that Chen Man was a bit unworthy of her.

He was given every chance, but it was all in vain.

The old professor sighed.

"Hey~"

Chen Man paused in his packing, then looked at the old man with a question mark in his eyes.

The old man curled his lip, his face showing disdain. "Ugh~"

After sighing again, the old professor picked up his thermos and left. "Sigh..."

Chen Man, wondering what the other person was sighing about, was speechless.

The man put all the collected materials into the cabinet, and when he looked up, he saw two figures downstairs.

"?"

Lin Zhihao ran a few steps and came to Shi Xingchen. "Okay, I can rest for three days now. How about it? Where do you want to go? It's on me. We haven't gone out together in a long time. Let's celebrate. Didn't you also decide to study at the drama school here?"

Wearing a hat and mask, Shi Xingchen smiled and reached out to tidy Lin Zhihao's hair. "Sister, I'm not the same as before. I'm earning money now. Besides, I'm a man. How can I let you pay for everything when we go out? This time, it's on me, okay?"

Lin Zhihao punched Shi Xingchen in the chest. "Hey, you're pretty quick-witted. You've suddenly developed such a charming side. It's not something I'm used to."

Shi Xingchen bent down and asked, "So, does sister prefer me now or me before?"

Lin Zhihao didn't even flinch. "If you bring that same attitude from the show to me again, I'll beat you up."

Shi Xingchen straightened up. "Oh, hahaha, I know, I know."

As she spoke, Shi Xingchen glanced at the building across the street and saw the man standing by the window.

"?"

Are you a fan?

He was dressed so conservatively today, yet he was still recognized?

Shi Xingchen looked away, took Lin Zhihao's backpack, and put his arm around her shoulder. "Come on, I'm too lazy to pick you up from get out of class for the first time. Show me around your school instead."

"Okay."

The two people left.

Chen Man squinted at the departing figure. No wonder he hadn't liked talking to him lately; it turned out he already had someone else.

Chen Man slammed the cabinet door shut.

Ah.

-

Lin Yu sensed that his brother Man was in a particularly strange mood today. The dark aura emanating from him as he sat in his seat was impossible for Lin Yu to ignore.

"Brother Man, what's wrong? You look so down. Did something happen that made you unhappy? Tell me, and I'll help you sort it out."

Chen Man turned his head and saw Lin Yu's flushed face. "Hmph."

Lin Yu: ?

What's wrong?

He got out of bed. "What's wrong? Why are you in such a bad mood?"

It's rare to see him show his emotions like this, and he's acting really strange today.

Chen Man didn't say anything, but started typing on the keyboard, with cold air whistling out.

Lin Yu and Jing Yifan exchanged a glance.

"?"

Jing Yifan shrugged. He didn't know either. He was already like this when he came back from outside. Logically speaking, after being busy for more than half a month, he should be happy to finally be able to rest. Why was he in such a bad mood?

"By the way, Man-ge, how's that project you and Lin Xue-mei are doing? Your family's involvement should have made it go smoothly, right? How about we go out and have some fun together during the three-day holiday?"

Upon hearing the name "Junior Sister Lin," Chen Man typed even faster. "Do you think everyone is as free as you? She's busy."

Busy with dating!

Lin Yu: ?

Jing Yifan leaned closer to Lin Yu, "I guess it's related to my junior."

Lin Yu nodded, "I noticed that too."

The two men locked eyes, and then immediately grabbed the man from both sides.

"Ugh, I finally have a holiday, why am I still working on this code? Go out and have some fun."

"That's it."

"Oh right, right." Lin Yu took out his phone. "I'll send a message to my junior and ask her to hang out with me. I haven't thanked her yet because she helped me clear up a misunderstanding with my girlfriend last time."

Upon hearing that she was to send a message to Lin Zhihao, Chen Man, who had been about to struggle, suddenly stopped.

Lin Yu: [Junior, wanna hook up?]

Lin Zhihao replied immediately: 【Busy. (Image)】

Lin Yu saw a picture of a table full of nuts, and more importantly, a large, well-defined hand next to the junior was poking at her milk tea!

"!!!"

Lin Yu immediately put his phone away.

Chen Man: ?

"Hehehe, it's okay, it's okay. Junior can't come today, so the two of us will keep you company, hahahaha."

Upon hearing that Lin Zhihao wouldn't be coming, Chen Man immediately thought of the figure he had seen while tidying up documents in the conference room.

The other person even looked up at him.

"Busy, being busy is good."

"What are you mumbling about? Hurry up and let's go, your brother Yu has made arrangements for today."

Lin Zhihao was having a great time, wearing a tank top and looking incredibly beautiful and charming. Besides the two of them, He Manman and the others were also in the private room.

Zhang Nick has successfully terminated his contract with the company under the guidance of Qunling and signed with Xinghui, becoming He Manman's exclusive agent.

Yuanyuan and Dimeng have a very good relationship. Even though they've been together for so long, they're still very affectionate.

The atmosphere inside the private room was incredibly lively.

Lin Zhihao, tired from dancing, sat down on the sofa.

Immediately, hands reached out from both sides, one from Shi Xingchen and the other from Gu Xiuzhe.

Two glasses of mineral water.

Lin Zhihao calmly pushed their hands away, "Tsk, what's wrong with you two? You're already here, and you're still drinking water and raising fish?"

She picked up the 8+1 drink on the table, downed it in one gulp, and then looked at them with disdain, "Tsk tsk tsk."

Shi Xingchen:......

Gu Xiuzhe:......

Ignoring the two of them, she took out her phone and immediately saw the message Lin Yu had sent her: a photo of a man hidden in the darkness.

In the photo, the man is sitting in the corner of the sofa. The room is dimly lit. He has his legs spread apart, his upper body is leaning against the back of the sofa, his head is tilted back, and the top three buttons of his shirt are undone.

There were other people around, making it seem very lively, but he sat alone in the corner, looking pitifully isolated from the whole world.

The light shone on him, giving him an alluring, dreamlike aura.

"Sister, who is this? So sexy." Shi Xingchen said from the side. He saw the photo. Ha, he saw through the man's little thoughts immediately.

“Exactly, what kind of good person would someone be to deliberately send these kinds of photos to little girls?” Gu Xiuzhe’s comment followed closely.

"And this outfit, what are you doing? You have no self-respect."

"That's it."

"This person is just average."

"Yes, yes."

"He's seducing you, those pants, that lighting."

"Don't be shameless."

...

The two of them criticized the photos that Lin Yu had sent to Lin Zhihao from beginning to end.

Lin Zhihao's lips twitched.
