Chen Cheng had just arrived at the entrance of Sun Xiang's coffee shop and was about to get out of the car.
He received her call and was stunned for a moment as he listened to her.
He said with a chuckle, "What's all this about?"
Sun Xin's tone was very excited, "I'm cured. My heart disease is completely gone."
"I'm just like a normal person. The doctor said I'm even healthier than most ordinary people."
Hmm?
His eyes flickered. Congenital heart disease, had surgery.
It could be completely cured?
Suddenly, Chen Cheng thought of himself.
He was stunned.
Could it be the Succubus Halo?
After thinking about it, Chen Cheng felt it was quite reasonable.
The dual cultivation effect brought by the Succubus Halo could even cause reverse aging, so curing a disease seemed a bit trivial.
A smile curled on Chen Cheng's lips; he really had freaking become like Tang Monk's meat.
If the women outside knew that dual cultivating with him could cure diseases, then...
Then he would be worked to death.
The way he was playing around now.
It was only because he had Endless Vitality supporting him.
Otherwise, five or six times a night, he would have definitely gotten tired of it long ago.
Endless Vitality didn't just restore physical strength, but provided a complete restoration of mind and body.
Human satisfaction and pleasure are all regulated by dopamine.
The recovery of dopamine is even more important than physical strength.
After all, with these luxury cars, besides manual transmission, there's also automatic transmission.
Without physical strength, the impact isn't that big.
But if you don't have any feeling, then nothing else matters.
Chen Cheng chatted with Sun Xin for a while and then hung up.
He stuffed his phone back into his pocket and got out of the car with a laptop from the passenger seat.
He walked around to the back of the car and opened the trunk.
Carrying a cardboard box, he entered the courtyard gate of the coffee shop.
Sun Xin hung up the phone, her face unable to hide her excitement.
She sat in the car, preparing to go home and tell her parents about this.
However, the phone she had just put back into her bag rang.
Sun Xin took a look; it was a strange local number.
After hesitating for a while, she still pressed answer.
As soon as the call connected, a clear female voice came from the receiver, "Hello~ Hi there."
"Is this Ms. Sun Xin?"
Sun Xin froze for a moment, let out a breath, and replied somewhat blankly, "Yes, I am."
"And you are...?"
Sun Xin's tone was cautious; after all, she had been looking for work recently.
The polite tone of the person on the other end didn't sound like a scammer.
Female voice: "Hello Sun Xin, I'm from the HR department of Rice Technology Co., Ltd. My surname is Zhang."
"We noticed that you've been looking for a job recently. Do you have time to come to our company for an interview?"
"Rice?" Sun Xin was stunned for a moment, "Oh, hello."
Reacting quickly, she agreed immediately, "I have time, of course I have time."
On the other end of the phone, "Then shall we set a time?"
Sun Xin hummed in response, "Yes, that works."
"I'm free anytime lately."
The female voice on the other end thought for a moment and asked tentatively, "Then... would this afternoon be okay?"
"You can come over now; I'll check with the hiring department."
Sun Xin was taken aback; the other party seemed very eager.
However, she didn't have time to think too much. She raised her hand to check her watch, "Then shall we meet in an hour... is that okay?"
The other party answered immediately, "Of course."
"Then we'll see you in an hour."
"For the location, let's add each other on green bubble, and I'll send you the location pin."
"Or you can just come directly to our campus."
"..."
The two chatted politely for a few more sentences.
They confirmed the specific time and place.
After exchanging a few more pleasantries, they finally hung up.
Sun Xin put down her phone, feeling like something wasn't quite right.
This HR person was a bit too polite and eager.
For a big company like Rice, no matter how short-staffed they were, the process was usually quite long.
She hadn't even submitted a resume, and they had come looking for her?
Although she had some doubts, Sun Xin couldn't quite put them into words.
After pondering for a while, she temporarily set aside her thoughts and drove to the Rice campus.
A scammer couldn't possibly be at the Rice campus, right?
...
No need to think; this was definitely Chen Cheng's doing.
Chen Cheng didn't think about whether he would owe Lei Jun a favor or anything like that.
Favors are things that are meant to be owed back and forth.
On the other side, Chen Cheng entered the coffee shop carrying the cardboard box and laptop.
Sun Xiang was buried in her work, researching her new cake.
She suddenly looked up, "Welcome..."
Before she could finish, she saw it was Chen Cheng.
Her mouth immediately curved into a crescent shape, and she smiled sweetly:
"Why are you here?"
Chen Cheng smiled and nodded, "Yeah, I came to see my girlfriend," he said, placing the box on the counter.
Sun Xiang's fair cheeks instantly flushed crimson, and she said coquettishly, "Who's your girlfriend? Don't talk nonsense."
Looking at her charming and cute appearance, Chen Cheng's heart half-melted, and he chuckled.
He turned his head to look around the empty coffee shop, "There's not a single person in your shop?"
Sun Xiang's mouth immediately slumped, and she sighed, "Business has indeed been particularly bad this year."
Chen Cheng also gave a bitter smile; there were still two years to wait.
"Forget it, let's not talk about that," Sun Xiang's smile returned as she pointed to the cardboard box Chen Cheng had placed on the counter and asked sweetly:
"What's this?"
Chen Cheng raised an eyebrow, "I haven't been here for a few days, so of course it's a gift for my girlfriend."
"Hmph," Sun Xiang's lips curled into a sweet smile, and she spoke coquettishly again, "Who's your girlfriend?"
It was just that the voice of this sentence was so small that only she could hear it.
This was where Scum Cheng was insidious.
Regardless of whether they were before, as long as the other party had feelings for you.
If you keep saying it, eventually the person listening will start to feel like they are.
It's called psychological suggestion.
Sun Xiang wasn't in a hurry to open the gift. Instead, she pursed her lips, her mouth curving like a crescent moon, "Do you want something to drink?"
"I'll treat you. Since you gave me a gift, I have to give a return gift, heehee."
Chen Cheng rested his elbows on the counter, propping up his chin, his eyes staring straight at Sun Xiang.
"A return gift?"
Sun Xiang nodded, "Yeah."
"Then..." a mischievous smile curled on Chen Cheng's lips, "then I won't have coffee. I want you to give me a kiss."
"Ah?"
Sun Xiang's eyes widened instantly, and in a few moments, her face turned bright red.
She lowered her head bashfully.
After quite a while, Sun Xiang raised her head again to look at Chen Cheng's handsome face.
Gritting her teeth and gathering her courage, she stood on tiptoe and leaned toward Chen Cheng's cheek.
While Chen Cheng's lips curled slightly, he used the hand speed of someone who had been single for eighteen years across two lifetimes to pull out his phone and snap a photo.
The photo captured the exact moment Sun Xiang kissed Chen Cheng's cheek.
It was a brief touch.
After kissing him, Sun Xiang's face was flushed, full of bashfulness, "Are you satisfied now?"
Chen Cheng suppressed a smile; he couldn't tease her anymore. If he did, Sun Xiang might look for a crack in the ground to crawl into.
Chen Cheng nodded, "It's alright."
"Hmph~" Sun Xiang gave a cute snort, "Tell me, what do you want to drink?"
"I'll make it for you."
Chen Cheng glanced at the menu, "The same as last time."
Sun Xiang nodded, "Then find a place to sit first, and I'll bring it to you when it's ready."
After saying that, she quickly turned around to get busy.
She was afraid that if he kept looking at her like that, her legs would turn to jelly.
