1188 Your Wishes Are the Most Important at Any Time

“Sister Li, how was my performance today?”

As soon as the car drove out through the gates of the National Art Association, Wei Songze, who was sitting in the front passenger seat, could not hold himself back.

“With such acting skills, it’s a pity that you’re not a movie star!”

Shen Li, who was driving, laughed.

!!

“Well, it’s pretty good. After all, I myself have relied on this trick to get out of things many times in the past.”

Wei Songze clicked his tongue.

“Sister Li, I just did you a favor, can’t you show me just a little appreciation? You have to know that in order to find a painting according to your standards, I had to greet all my brothers at the National Art Association.”

Her request for the painting was very specific, and it had taken him a lot of effort.

Shen Li nodded, “I know. I owe you a favor for this.”

“Sister Li! Don’t do that!”

Wei Songze had just been joking with her,

“Sister Li, you’ve helped me so many times in the past. Isn’t this what I should do?”

“It’s two different things. I still have to thank you for this.”

“Oh–”

Wei Songze tilted his head, touched his chin, and looked at her thoughtfully,

“Sister Li, you seem to care a lot about this matter!”

They had known each other for a very long time, so he knew Shen Li all too well.

It was definitely not a small matter for her to go to such great lengths.

But he just could not figure out what was going on.

“It can’t be just to let Shi Yang see that painting, right?”

The painting was good, but it had nothing to do with her, did it?

Besides, with her status, out of so many people in the National Art Association, who would not give her face?

There was no need for her to do all this for something as simple as just critiquing a painting.

Shen Li raised her eyebrows.

“Then what? What else could it be?”

Wasn’t this the conclusion of today’s show?

Of course, Wei Songzhe knew that it was not that simple. He thought for a while and mumbled, “I don’t know if it was my imagination, but when Shi Yang was looking at the painting, he seemed a little lost in thought. ”

Of course, it was not just his imagination.

Even a carefree person like Wei Songze could tell that Shi Yang had lost his composure.

It was because she had brought the painting with her, and also because she had mentioned Shen Zhijin and Gu Tingyin.

Based on Shi Yang’s usual personality and style, he would be extremely serious when he was helping others with critiquing paintings. He would not have been as distracted as he had been today.

The hunch in Shen Li’s heart became clearer.

Her lips twitched, but there was no smile on her face. She said lightly, “Who knows what he was thinking?”

…

Shi Yang went back to his office, sat down behind his desk, and picked up the materials he had been reading.

It was as if the little episode earlier had no effect on him at all.

Song Miao glanced at him quickly, his mouth having gone dry.

He had been with Shi Yang for many years, so he could more or less figure out his emotions.

His instinct told him not to provoke Shi Yang at this moment.

Even though he did not know what had happened to make Shi Yang’s mood so bad while he was looking at the painting.

He bent down and asked carefully, “Mr. Shi Yang, if there’s nothing else, I’ll take my leave.”

“Yes.”

Shi Yang did not raise his head, merely replying with one word.

However, Song Miao heaved a sigh of relief and turned to leave.

“Wait.”

Shi Yang stopped him again.

“Mr. Shi Yang,” Song Miao turned around immediately. “Is there anything else you need?”

Shi Yang asked, “What’s the situation like at the Yu family?”

“The Yu family?”

Song Miao had not expected him to ask this. He was momentarily stunned before he reacted.

“I heard that the situation is not very good. The joint investigation team has already entered the Yu family, and it is estimated that the Yu family will not be able to escape this time.”

Harming the interests of the country was crossing the line.

Moreover, the Yu family was currently in internal strife. Both sides had completely shed all pretenses of cordiality. Yu Ming was aiming to perish together, so no one would gain an advantage.

“I know. After that, if there’s any news on the Yu family, report to me immediately.”

Song Miao did not understand.

Shouldn’t the National Art Association be the thing he was most worried about now? Why was the Yu family suddenly involved now?

Of course, he did not dare to ask.

“Alright,” he said.

He bowed and left.

Click.

The door closed, and the office fell into silence again.

Shi Yang took off his gold-rimmed glasses and pinched the bridge of his nose.

A moment later, he opened his eyes, and the gentle look on his face disappeared.

He had already known that her personality and shrewdness were really hard to like.

After all, her existence had been a mistake from the beginning.

…

That evening, Shen Zhijin returned from his business trip.

This time, he had gone to the headquarters of the Fino Laboratory in Bai City.

Since last year, he had spent more time in China because he had led the collaborative research project between Xijing University and Fino Laboratory.

After he had acknowledged Shen Li, he had shifted his focus to China.

When he was in the Capital, he would try his best to come home and have dinner with her every day. When he was on a business trip, he would always finish his work and come back as soon as possible.

He just wanted to spend more time with her.

Shen Li had prepared a sumptuous dinner for them both.

During the meal, Shen Zhijin suddenly thought of something.

“Tangtang, your mid-term examination results should be coming out soon, I believe? ”

Shen Li nodded.

“It should be tomorrow.”

Shen Zhijin thought for a moment.

“By the end of your second year, you should have enough credits to graduate. Do you have any plans after that?”

Shen Li’s eyes curved as she smiled.

“Are you still recruiting for Ph.D. students next year?”

Shen Zhijin could not help but laugh.

“Are you sure? Actually, there are a few laboratories that are already interested in you.”

There were some, both at home and abroad, and they were not inferior to Fino Laboratory.

After all, Shen Li’s resume was extremely exciting.

Shen Li asked, “Don’t you want me to stay?”

Of course, Shen Zhijin hoped that she could stay by his side the most. However, her opinion was what mattered the most.

Even he had to admit that those opportunities were very good choices for her.

He looked at Shen Li with a gentle and serious expression on his clean and elegant face.

“Tangtang, you have to know that your wishes are always the first priority to me at any time.”

Shen Li’s heart skipped a beat, and her lips curved into a smug smile.

“Then I’ll take one of your Ph.D. Slots for next year.”

Shen Zhijin looked at her and the smile between his brows stretched.

“Alright,” he said.

The phone beside him suddenly rang.

Shen Li tilted her head and took a casual look. Her eyes immediately narrowed.

[ President Shen, I just received news that Old Master Yu has passed away. ]
