Xu Wei felt an even greater sense of crisis.
"Lin Zhi, let's go back to school together tomorrow. You have been exhausted these past few days, so go back and get some good rest for a couple of days. And you should also take some time off for dating," Xu Wei said the last sentence with a bit of a tease.
Dating?!
Lin Zhi gasped inwardly, How could she have forgotten her first rotten peach blossom!
At the age of 20, Lin Zhi was in the prime of young womanhood. She was naturally beautiful with a fresh and pure aura, which caught the eye of a man while she was working part-time as a ceremonial hostess at a business event.
That man was Zhou Yi, CEO of an enterprise, and he was only 28 years old. Despite an eight-year age difference, the Lin Zhi from her past life did not think he was too old at all.
Zhou Yi was quite handsome, favoring white shirts and black suits, and he drove a black Mercedes valued at over a million.
She remembered the time his car stopped in front of her, the window rolled down, and there he sat in the back with an air of a business elite and a faint successful man's smile on his face, looking exactly like the successful men on TV.
Lin Zhi, who hadn't seen much of the world, felt a bit flustered at first sight, unsure of why he was stopping her.
Zhou Yi was very polite, directly handing her a business card, maintaining a proper smile as he said:
"Hello, I am the President of Zhou Corporation, here's my card. Our company is in need of a lady with your image and qualities to be our spokesperson. If you're interested, you could contact me. We're a legitimate company, so you don't need to worry about anything, and the compensation will be quite generous."
At that time, Lin Zhi hadn't thought much of it and really believed he wanted her to be a spokesperson. She happily accepted the business card and was very grateful.
"Thank you. What kind of spokesperson do you need me to be?" she asked.
Seeing how easily she agreed, Zhou Yi showed a smile that Lin Zhi couldn't read.
"We can discuss this when you come to our company tomorrow. By the way, what's your name?"
"Lin Zhi."
"That's a nice name, Miss Lin. I look forward to your reply tomorrow," Zhou Yi truly seemed eagerly expecting her response as he smiled at her.
Lin Zhi was attracted by his refined smile and immediately nodded, assuring that she would definitely go.
What young girl doesn't harbor a lovey-dovey heart?
Although Lin Zhi had no delusional thoughts, she still felt an inexplicable sense of anticipation.
The next day, she put on her prettiest dress and went to Zhou Yi's company for the interview. She thought she would be received by someone else, but it turned out Zhou Yi personally received her.
He even invited her to discuss the collaboration over a meal.
Then, he took her to a nearby upscale restaurant, a place so fancy and expensive it left Lin Zhi, who was poor at the time, dumbfounded.
A small portion of beef actually cost more than 200, robbery!
And Zhou Yi, without batting an eye, ordered quite a lot of food. The meal probably came to about a thousand or two...
A thousand or two was Lin Zhi's expenses for two months.
She earned about a thousand a month from part-time jobs, barely enough for the most basic expenses.
But for Zhou Yi, that was just one meal.
Lin Zhi was indeed stunned by such extravagance. In front of Zhou Yi, she subconsciously felt inferior, and deep down she admired and appreciated the capabilities of such a person.
Zhou Yi was also very philosophical in his conversation, completely different from the young boys at school.
