Chapter 367 Mahjong Game and Special Talent
Ji Ya had always come from the service industry with a keen attention to detail and a strong sense of responsibility, which is why Shen Yuan had her work for him.
After arriving in Star City, Shen Yuan had enrolled her in an Entry Level assistant course and, although she was still 2% shy of completing the entire course and examination, her ability and awareness had already made a qualitative leap.
Her flexibility and adaptability had improved a lot, as had her organizational and planning skills.
Now, wherever Shen Yuan went, as long as he told her the travel time and destination, she could quickly come up with two plans.
At the same time, she would calculate the travel time, take into account the traffic situation in the destination city, and consider whether it would affect Shen Yuan's schedule and rest.
For example, on this trip to Shanghai, Ji Ya's hotel choices for Shen Yuan were Bulgari or Yan Yun Aman, but considering the visits to the branch office and hospital, Ji Ya recommended the Bulgari in the city center.
She also knew that Shen Yuan had a habit of taking a nap and couldn't sleep well on planes, so she recommended a morning flight that would land around 11 a.m. After the flight, he could have lunch and then go straight to the hotel to nap.
She even calculated the time needed from the airport to the hotel at 11 a.m., a day in advance, using both Gaode and Baidu to check the traffic congestion at that time, all to avoid affecting Shen Yuan's meals and rest.
There were many such details that even Shen Yuan himself wouldn't notice, but Ji Ya managed them without fault.
Of course, what satisfied Shen Yuan the most was her time management ability.
Being able to distinguish the urgency and importance of events, prioritizing urgent and important tasks, and arranging the order of other matters rationally.
This was especially profound in managing NPCs.
When and where he had stayed the night with which NPC; when each NPC had their period and for how many days; such things Shen Yuan definitely wouldn't remember, but having Ji Ya there, she would remind and suggest.
For instance, once when Shen Yuan was preparing to look for Qiao Lei, she said, "Right now, Sister Qiao Lei is on her period. Although Sister Jinghan, who lives with her, isn't on hers, you recently visited her home and stayed over at a hotel with her for one night."
"Based on the meeting time and period gap, I suggest choosing Sister Xinyu or Coach Liew instead."
And just like that, Shen Yuan instantly understood and was able to make a more suitable choice.
Indeed, being an assistant in the nurture series was very fulfilling.
Shen Yuan was actually looking forward to seeing how much she would evolve after completing the Entry Level course and getting promoted.
...
At the same time, in a classroom of Renmin University of Yanjing.
In front of the lecture hall stood an old professor with white hair and thick glasses, who, despite the lack of response from the students and even empty seats in the first and second rows, was still speaking passionately and spiritedly.
Zhou Peiwei, sitting in the last row, sneakily took a selfie while the old professor wasn't looking, sent it to Shen Yuan, and messaged, "Jerk, a new day has started. Surely you haven't just woken up?"
After sending the message, she looked out the window with a smile playing at the corners of her mouth, seemingly lost in memories.
"Weiwei, what's up with you? Why are you always grinning foolishly since you came back from Shanghai?"
"Ah, nothing, just too bored."
Zhou Peiwei shifted her gaze and looked at her roommate: "Yingying, what's the next class? This ideology course is just unbearable."
"Human Anatomy, your favorite. But don't change the subject, who did you just send that selfie to? It can't be your boyfriend, can it?"
The girl called Yingying teased with a secretive smile.
"No, what boyfriend?"
Zhou Peiwei's eyes couldn't quite hide away.
"Still denying it? Over these three years of college, I've never seen you send a selfie to any guy. You better come clean!"
"Ah, there really isn't one."
"Just spill it. I promise I won't tell anyone. It couldn't be Sha Jiayu, could it... Eh? Why isn't he in the ideology class today?"
Yingying, full name Tang Yingying, looked around the classroom and truly couldn't spot that familiar figure.
Sha Jiayu was in the same year but a different class, and had been doggedly pursuing Zhou Peiwei for a year. Upon learning her class schedule, he came to their classroom every other day to sit in on lectures, just to catch a glimpse of Zhou Peiwei.
"How could it be him!"
"Then who is it... come on, spill it!"
Tang Yingying was dying of curiosity, as this was gossip too tempting to miss out on.
Zhou Peiwei was considered the most beautiful girl in their year: fair, pretty, with a great figure, and even a bit of a rich girl, her suitors could be lined up from the campus gate to the high-speed rail station.
If she had a boyfriend, not to mention other classes, but several guys in her own would likely be wiping away secret tears at night.
Zhou Peiwei didn't really know how to put it, to claim him as a boyfriend, Shen Yuan hadn't expressed it nor clarified their relationship.
To say he wasn't a boyfriend, they had already done things typical of couples.
Right at that moment, Zhou Peiwei's phone vibrated. She picked it up and saw a message from Shen Yuan.
However, her pretty face turned red upon reading the content.
"Hooligan!"
"What hooligan... What did he send you?"
Tang Yingying leaned in to look, but by then Zhou Peiwei had already locked her screen.
"That's not fair, what did he send?"
With her face still red, Zhou Peiwei didn't speak, but grinding her teeth at the thought of that cheeky face, how could there be such a hooligan in this world?
She had kindly sent him a selfie, and he'd replied with "You're wearing so much, who are you showing it to? Show the layers underneath."
"Stupid pig trotter!"
Zhou Peiwei cursed in her heart, then smoothed her hair and said, "Alright Yingying, there's really nothing. If I get a boyfriend, I'll tell you first thing for sure."
