139 Ai Tingya Expresses That Having Luo Feng Is Enough
Song Anrong was very capable. She came up with a perfect company structure plan the next morning. Luo Feng took a few glances and felt that it was practical. He asked her to start recruiting outsiders.
It was unknown if Luo Feng did it on purpose or if it was really nothing.
Ai Tingya felt that she had indeed relaxed a lot since Song Anrong joined the company.
Even though she would still go to the shop to help occasionally, there was less work that she needed to do in the company. This also gave Ai Tingya more time to spend on her studies.
In the Finance Department cla.s.sroom.
Ai Tingya listened to the professor’s lecture attentively and took notes meticulously.
During the break, she would also think about the company. Coincidentally, the professor had mentioned business management today. Ai Tingya compared the development of Ting Feng’s company with knowledge in the books. She absorbed it especially quickly and gained a lot.
Soon, the bell rang.
This was the last cla.s.s of the day. She could arrange the time in the afternoon herself. Ai Tingya wanted to ask Song Anrong how the recruitment was going. She picked up her books and prepared to leave.
“Tingya,” someone called out to her from behind.
Ai Tingya was too deep in thought to hear him. She lowered her head and walked forward.
“… Tingya,” the person called out again.
Ai Tingya paused and looked around blankly, as if searching for the source of the sound.
“Tingya!” Her roommate, Barbara, was completely speechless. She grabbed Ai Tingya and said, “You’re so absent-minded. What would you do if you’re kidnapped?”
“Huh?” Ai Tingya scratched her head. “Barbara, did you call out to me?”
Barbara sighed helplessly. If someone unfamiliar with Ai Tingya encountered such a situation, they would definitely think that she was rude. However, Barbara and Ai Tingya had been together day and night and knew that she was just too engrossed in her thoughts.
“Aiya, you’ll age quickly if you keep worrying like this!” Barbara didn’t know why Ai Tingya had so many things on her mind.
“I’m sorry, I was being obsessive again,” Ai Tingya apologized. She also felt that she was very bad.
She had no choice. Once she thought about something, all her body and mind were on it. It was very easy for her to ignore the people or matters around her.
“It’s fine, it’s fine.” Barbara was already used to it and naturally knew that Ai Tingya didn’t do it on purpose. “Are you preparing to go to the milk tea shop again? There’s a gathering in cla.s.s today. Come along.”
“A gathering… I don’t need to…” Ai Tingya felt that company matters were more important. As long as she could partic.i.p.ate in a gathering at school at any time, there would be many of these.
Barbara narrowed her eyes and looked at Ai Tingya for a while before saying, “Are you thinking that you can partic.i.p.ate next time? Aiya, you definitely can’t keep pushing back the next time. Do you remember that you haven’t partic.i.p.ated in any cla.s.s gatherings or activities since you enrolled?”
“No way!” Ai Tingya only remembered pushing a few times. “Did I?”
Barbara was simply stunned by this. “That’s right! You haven’t been here even once. Do you know what everyone in cla.s.s is saying about you? They’re saying that you’re a flower from a high mountain and rely on your talent.”
“Are they saying that I don’t fit in…” Ai Tingya said sadly. She actually didn’t mean that.
However, her studies and company matters had long occupied her time. Even so, she still felt that there was not enough time. She wished she had 25 hours a day so that she could have an extra hour to study.
Luo Feng always said that Ai Tingya was improving rapidly. Little did he know that other than eating and walking, she spent the rest of her time studying.
Ai Tingya spent most of her time studying even when she went to Ai Zhaojiang’s place. Sometimes, Ai Tingya felt that she had let Ai Zhaojiang down. After all, her grandfather wanted to chat more and understand her granddaughter’s learning life.
Ai Zhaojiang felt very happy just listening to it.
However, Ai Tingya could not squeeze out any time to chat with Ai Zhaojiang. He specialized in philosophy, while she was into finance. They really had nothing in common.
Fortunately, Ai Zhaojiang also liked to read and did not fuss about this. The two of them sat in the courtyard together for the entire day.
Ai Tingya really used all the time she could use to not leave any s.p.a.ce for the gathering.
“That’s right. Many of the male students in the cla.s.s seem to want to ask you out. Every time the few of us go, we have to answer an award-less question like ‘Where is Student Ai Tingya going?"” Barbara smiled as she spoke. “Only you, the person involved, don’t know anything.”
Seeing that Ai Tingya was silent, she continued, “Let’s go and have a meal together. It won’t take long.”
Barbara had actually omitted many unpleasant words. In the beginning, her cla.s.smates only said that Ai Tingya did not fit in very well. Later on, when Ai Tingya became famous on the forum and still interacted less with her cla.s.smates, some people felt that Ai Tingya was very pretentious.
They felt that Ai Tingya must be looking down on her cla.s.smates and only gave time to people who were useful to her.
Barbara felt very angry when she heard these slanders. She was in the same dormitory as Ai Tingya, so she knew better than anyone how hard Ai Tingya worked to study.
Sometimes, the other three would be asleep while Ai Tingya was still studying. She squatted in the toilet in order to avoid disturbing the others.
There were a few times when Barbara woke up in the middle of the night and saw Ai Tingya fighting at night. Seeing this scene, even people who felt that studying was useless would be conquered by Ai Tingya’s hard work.
Those students who did not know the inside story knew to make wild guesses.
The reason why Barbara wanted Ai Tingya to partic.i.p.ate once was to slap those people’s faces ruthlessly. She wanted them to know that not only was Tingya good at her studies, but she was also gentle and kind.
“Let’s go, let’s go. I’ll pay for dinner tonight.” Barbara pestered Ai Tingya and shook her hand.
Ai Tingya thought for a moment and smiled apologetically. “I’m sorry, Barbara, but I still won’t go. I really can’t spare the time.”
“Sigh, even my charm can’t conquer you?” Barbara smiled helplessly. “Alright, alright. It’s fine if you don’t want to go, but you might become more and more insignificant in cla.s.s.”
She was not exaggerating. She was just telling the truth.
“It’s okay. Don’t I still have you guys?” Ai Tingya was not afraid of being lonely. Moreover, she felt that her three roommates were very good people.
At this point, she blushed and whispered, “Furthermore, I think it’s enough if that person likes me.”
Barbara stretched her ears and heard it clearly. She rolled her eyes and said, “Oh, it’s your Luo Feng, right? You really love him deeply.”
“No, he’s really good.”
“I know, I know,” Barbara said. “Hmph, I’ll forget about it this time. You must definitely make time for our dormitory gathering next time. Otherwise, I’ll complain to your Luo Feng that you stay up late often!”
“Don’t!” Ai Tingya immediately cowered.
Seeing her cute appearance, Barbara pinched her face, packed her things, and left the cla.s.sroom.
