Maximize Interest, My Money Grows Infinitely-Chapter 258 - 189: The Director is Very Sensible

For Chen Cheng, it had been quite a few years since he last stepped into the school library.

When the quiet atmosphere and the musky scent of countless books piled around him hit, it felt like he was back in his college days.

Carrying the book list that Liu Zhiying had given to Chen Cheng, Liu Zhiya was searching for them one by one in the borrowing area.

The sunlight streamed through the window, casting its warmth on her fair face, and the feeling of youth was very much embodied at this moment.

"Xi Chuang Fa Yu..."

She murmured softly, her gaze sweeping over the bookshelves while occasionally looking down to double-check the titles, "What book is this?"

With the Law School’s collection as vast as the sea of stars, searching in Liu Zhiya’s manner was obviously like finding a needle in a haystack.

But when Chen Cheng saw those sparkling eyes looking at him, he understood that this was just Liu Zhiya’s own way of cutely coaxing.

She had come to borrow books for Liu Zhiying so many times, there was no way she didn’t know how to use the index.

Chen Cheng asked with a smile, "Can’t find it? Need my help?"

Putting on a look of distress, Liu Zhiya crinkled her nose pitifully and said, "Yeah, it seems that book isn’t in this area. I’ve been looking for so long that my legs are getting sore..."

As she spoke, she purposefully rubbed the calves beneath her pleated skirt.

The natural sheen of her skin, combined with those knee-high white cotton socks, added an unspeakable sense of innocent allure to her clumsy acting.

Chen Cheng’s lips curled into a smile, and he whispered quietly, "How about you skip your poise class later?"

With a mix of shyness and anticipation, Liu Zhiya said, "Brother Cheng, then I’ll ask the teacher if I can take a leave."

Chen Cheng nodded, "Sure. After you get leave, sneak into a performance class."

"Hmph!"

Seeing through her act, Liu Zhiya puffed her cheeks and shot Chen Cheng a coquettish glare.

Chen Cheng chuckled and patted her head, "Alright, go check where your sister’s books are. Let’s finish up so I can get you back to school."

Reluctantly, Liu Zhiya headed over to the search terminal, and Chen Cheng found a spot to sit down.

Just as he settled in, his phone vibrated.

Pulling it out, he saw a message from Wen Shulin: "Still in the meeting."

Chen Cheng checked the time. It had been almost eighteen hours since she left the office of the Governor of Jingzhao. It seemed this issue they were dealing with was indeed tricky.

Chen Cheng replied, "Li Ya’s penalty revocation has been approved. I’ll bring it to CGG later."

Wen Shulin responded with a kiss emoticon, with no further conversation.

After about twenty minutes, Liu Zhiya had found all the books she wanted to borrow and returned the ones she had previously borrowed.

"Brother Cheng, I’m done."

Chen Cheng stood up, "Okay, let’s go."

They walked out of the library and got into the car, with Liu Zhiya sitting in the passenger seat.

"Should I drop you off at the entrance?" Chen Cheng started the car.

Liu Zhiya nodded slightly, "Yes, I can go in by myself."

She looked back at the stack of books on the back seat, "Brother Cheng, are you going to deliver these to my sister now?" fɾēewebnσveℓ.com

Chen Cheng shook his head, "Later, still have things to do."

Liu Zhiya smiled sweetly, "Brother Cheng, you’re such a great help. You’re so busy throughout the day, yet you still take the time to look after my sister."

Chen Cheng held the steering wheel with one hand and turned his face slightly, "So how are you planning to thank me properly?"

A spark glinted in Liu Zhiya’s eyes, and she hurriedly kicked off the red and black AJ sneakers and stretched her impossibly long legs over.

Chen Cheng smiled faintly, "Eh? Why do I detect a tangy scent?"

"Ah? I just put on new socks this morning." Liu Zhiya frowned.

Chen Cheng pinched the toes beneath the white socks, "Just teasing you."

"Brother Cheng, you’re getting naughtier!"

"We’ll buy a pair of cute socks next time, I bet you’d look great in them."

Liu Zhiya agreed, swinging her petite feet, "As long as you like it, Brother Cheng, I can wear anything."

"What if I get you yellow rain boots?" Chen Cheng said with a laugh.

Liu Zhiya’s eyes sparked with an idea, "Then I’ll tie a high ponytail and perform a dance from Youth for you, Brother Cheng!"

Chen Cheng laughed out loud, "Now you’re talking about cosplaying for me?"

Liu Zhiya giggled nonstop, "Who asked you to be my Brother Cheng?"

...

...

After dropping off Liu Zhiya, Chen Cheng drove to CGG.

This time, he didn’t go to Wen Shulin’s office or enter CGG’s underground parking, but instead, he stopped by the Starbucks at the bottom of the company’s building and ordered two cups of coffee.

Before long, Wen Shulin appeared in the shop.

She was still in the same outfit as the day before, looking utterly exhausted, yet upon seeing Chen Cheng, she mustered up energy to greet the man with the brightest of smiles.

Chen Cheng pushed the cup of Americano towards her, "You must be worn out?"

Wen Shulin took a sip of coffee and rubbed her forehead, "Yeah. Still no conclusion yet."

She took another big gulp, "What about you?"

Chen Cheng passed the revocation letter to her, "Here you go."

After Wen Shulin read it carefully, it was probably the best news she had seen in the last day and night.

"Thanks."

"What’s with the formality." Chen Cheng smiled and asked, "Tell me about your side."

He added, "Not that I’m gossiping! It’s just not clear on the Internet. How high up are we talking about?"

Wen Shulin collected her things calmly, lowering her voice, "Actually, it’s just a tutorial group leader, equivalent to a department manager."

Hearing this news, Chen Cheng’s eyebrows unconsciously raised, "And such a small matter has you so... hot under the collar?"

Wen Shulin sighed, "It might seem trivial, but it’s quite a headache to deal with."

"Let’s hear it, what exactly is going on?"
