Chapter 721: Chapter 308: The Sound Coming from Her Mother’s Room...
Lin Qingci was once again convinced by Zhang Jingdong. There was nothing she could do since what he said made sense.
But then she thought of something: "But... we just officially signed the contract yesterday. How could you possibly find a suitable target so quickly?"
Zhang Jingdong started to put on airs: "Do you know what the key point is to determine if someone is truly capable?"
"Wealth, or an official position?"
"No, it’s the sources of information they can access. Essentially, the more powerful a person is, the richer their information sources are compared to others, and the higher the accuracy of the information they obtain!"
"Why did ancient emperors establish intelligence agencies like the East Factory, West Factory, and Jinyi Guard? It was because as the emperor, he needed to have the most powerful information sources in the world and ensure the accuracy of the information."
"Are you trying to say... because you’re more capable than me, your information sources are broader and more accurate?"
"You really didn’t waste your tuition at Harvard; your logical thinking ability, clear self-awareness, and directness when speaking surpass most people."
"Tch... that didn’t sound like a compliment!"
"I was really complimenting you."
"Alright, I understand. I believe you, okay?"
Zhang Jingdong seized the opportunity: "Then since you accused me wrongly just now, shouldn’t you express something to me now?"
"What do you mean?"
"You can’t just accuse me wrongly without any consequence, can you? It’ll severely dampen my enthusiasm for working for the company!"
"Tch... fine, I’m sorry, alright?"
"Listen to your tone, it’s not sincere at all!"
"Hey... don’t push your luck!"
"Lin Qingci, you wronged me, and I’m only asking for an apology, yet you’re still saying this. You’re too much, aren’t you?"
"You... alright, I sincerely apologize to you now, Mr. Zhang, I..."
"Your apology is useless now."
"So what do you want?"
"Kiss me."
"What!? Are you still dreaming?"
"If you kiss me, not only will I forgive you, but I will also work hard for the company over the next period of time, help grow a batch of online influencers quickly, and help the new company website reach 10 million users. How about that?"
"You... no way! Change it!"
Zhang Jingdong sensed her hesitation and said, "Hey, President Lin, aren’t you being petty? I’m just asking you to kiss me over the phone, not even in person."
"Besides, we already kissed yesterday anyway, you..."
"You’re not allowed to mention yesterday!"
"Will you kiss me or not?"
"I won’t kiss you!"
"If you don’t kiss me, I’ll tell Jieyu about this when I see her tonight."
"You wouldn’t dare!"
"Whether I dare or not, you’ll know when she calls you tonight!"
"Zhang Jingdong, is there something wrong with your head? You were the one who kissed me, alright? And now you dare to tell Jieyu about it? How shameless can you get?"
"Who asked me to nicely discuss it with you, and you still won’t agree? My shameless behavior is purely driven by you, right?"
"I’m asking you one last time, will you kiss me or not?"
"You... alright, you win!"
"But... how do I kiss over the phone?"
Zhang Jingdong chuckled: "Just kiss over the phone, and most importantly, make sure I can hear it, come on!"
The other side was silent for four or five seconds, and then suddenly there was a sound, "...Mua."
"Is that enough?"
"Your kiss caught me off guard, I wasn’t prepared!"
Lin Qingci sulked: "What kind of preparation do you need?"
"I at least need to put my face on the phone, so I can feel your kiss!"
"Alright, I’m ready now. I’ll count down three, two, one, and then you kiss, okay?"
Zhang Jingdong tried hard not to laugh: "Three... two... one..."
Although embarrassed and shy, Lin Qingci had no choice but to cooperate once more.
"...Mua."
Zhang Jingdong finally burst out laughing: "Haha... I felt it! President Lin, I’m not angry at all now, don’t worry, I’ll definitely work hard for the company from now on!"
"You better keep your word, goodbye!"
After Lin Qingci finished speaking, she hung up the phone directly.
Zhang Jingdong laughed for a while longer, then put down the phone and glanced at the bed.
At this point, both Kong Xue’er and Sun Yuzhen were already awake.
Thinking about the kiss from Lin Qingci just now, Zhang Jingdong’s enthusiasm for teaching was rekindled, so he came to the bedside.
"You’re up just in time, come on, let me explain a few knowledge points for you during this morning study..."
More than half an hour later, Zhang Jingdong rewarded each of them with a bottle of Life One.
After watching them finish drinking, he embraced both of them and took them to the bathroom to wash up.
Close to 1 o’clock, Zhang Jingdong left the hotel alone.
He first went to Lepin Department Store, bought two laptops and two cameras, and a large backpack.
Then he went to West University.
He parked the car near the library and then sent a text message to Lin Shishi: Miss me?
After a full minute, Lin Shishi replied: Mm.
Zhang Jingdong felt a sense of satisfaction in his heart. The two had just confirmed their relationship last time, and he knew how rare a "Mm" was for Lin Shishi.
So he didn’t continue teasing her and asked: What are you doing?
Lin Shishi: Preparing for exams, studying.
Zhang Jingdong: Come out for a bit. I want to ask you for a favor.
Lin Shishi: Sure, where are you now?
Zhang Jingdong: I’m going to be downstairs at your dormitory. By the way, is Liu Siwen there?
Zhang Jingdong was worried that Lin Shishi wouldn’t accept the things he was going to give her, so he had to get Liu Siwen involved.
Lin Shishi: She’s here.
Zhang Jingdong: Bring her down with you. This is a bit complicated, and I might need both your help.
Lin Shishi thought it was something similar to handing out flyers last time, so she readily agreed: Okay.
After chatting with Lin Shishi, Zhang Jingdong drove the car near their dormitory building.
Then he grabbed the large backpack and got out of the car.
When he arrived at the front of their dormitory building, he saw Lin Shishi and Liu Siwen walking out together.
At that moment, Lin Shishi was wearing a white dress, with her long hair hanging down her shoulders, looking absolutely ethereal!
Zhang Jingdong felt a rush of excitement and went to meet them.
