Charm point maxed out, inheriting game assets

Chapter 1226: Chapter 467: Ginkgo Leaves Fall_5

When the conversation got lively, they would open the photo album on their phones, and find some old pictures they had taken before.

At university, she was considered to be in her prime.

President of the School of Business and Management’s student council, the school beauty, participating in various shows and competitions.

In fact, after the huge boom of short video platforms.

She had been consciously marketing herself as “Yan City’s school belle” to grow her account.

The results were very impressive.

By the time she graduated in 2020, her personal account had over 600,000 followers.

Initially choosing to become an HR in a Fortune 500 foreign enterprise was also to accumulate networking resources and look for suitable entrepreneurship opportunities.

Zhang Tianqi valued this, which is why he ultimately chose to co-found Youjie Housekeeping with her.

She also contributed her account, valuing it as a non-monetary asset, becoming an important promotion and customer acquisition channel for Youjie Housekeeping.

Otherwise, given her situation back then, she wouldn’t have had the money to hold 49% of the shares.

So, in terms of entrepreneurship, she didn’t take much advantage of Zhang Tianqi; at most, it was mutually beneficial.

Outside, the night was deepening, while the light inside the house was warm and soft.

Around 8 PM, dinner concluded.

Xu Qing and Shen Yuyan went into the kitchen together to clean up the dishes and prepare a fruit platter.

Tang Song sat on the sofa, engrossed in a variety show on TV.

A light fragrance wafted into his nose, mixed with the scent of fruit.

Shen Yuyan placed a delicate fruit platter in front of him and casually handed him a toothpick.

“Thank you.” Tang Song reached out to take the toothpick, unable to resist glancing at her again.

No doubt about it, this school beauty had something special.

Her bust size looked like it was nearly a D, comparable to Qiuqiu.

Noticing Tang Song’s gaze, Shen Yuyan slightly turned her body, picked up a grape with her fingers, and placed it by Tang Song’s mouth. “This one is super sweet, try it.”

Tang Song nodded lightly, opening his mouth.

The grape rolled into his mouth; he bit it gently, and the sweet juice flowed between his lips and teeth.

“It’s indeed very good.” Tang Song’s tone was calm and gentle.

Shen Yuyan bit her lip, her eyes flickered briefly, then she showed a bright smile: “You watched today’s Qingning Technology release conference, didn’t you?”

“Yeah, of course, it’s being talked about all over the internet now.”

Shen Yuyan moved a bit closer to Tang Song, leaning forward, her tone light and confident: “The release of Lime3.0 has brought multiple opportunities for entrepreneurs in terms of technological inclusivity, cost reduction, and business model innovation. Even in the housekeeping industry, it can be integrated to greatly save on costs…”

Having prepared her script in advance, her voice was clear and fluent, very infectious.

At this moment.

“Ring, ring—” The sudden ringtone of the phone interrupted her speech.

Tang Song took out his phone and glanced at it, a faint smile appearing on his face, “I’ll take a call.”

With that, he got up and walked to the balcony.

Standing on the balcony, Tang Song pressed the answer button, “Hello? Qingning.”

A familiar voice came from the earpiece, with a hint of fatigue and tenderness: “Song, what are you doing now?”

“Having dinner and chatting at a friend’s place, we were just talking about the Qingning Technology conference, you worked hard today.”

“I finally finished my work, and while organizing things just now, I remembered the ginkgo leaf bookmark you made for me when I visited you at Yan City University, do you remember that?”

“Of course, I remember.” Tang Song’s eyes flashed with a reminiscing expression.

During the Mid-Autumn Festival of 2016, around this time, his first love suddenly came from the Imperial City to Yan City to visit him.

At that time, on a road outside Yan City University of Science and Technology, he picked up a particularly beautiful ginkgo leaf, later made it into a bookmark, and gave it to Liu Qingning.

“I can’t find that bookmark anymore, I don’t know when I lost it.” Liu Qingning’s voice was a bit aggrieved, as if she was about to cry.

Tang Song quickly comforted her: “It’s okay, I’ll make you another one.”

“That’s what you said!” Liu Qingning’s tone instantly became cheerful, like a child coquettishly urging him, “I want you to go to that street at the Technology University now, find me the most beautiful ginkgo leaf, and send me a picture!”

“Uh…now?”

“Now! I suddenly miss it so much, I won’t be able to sleep if I don’t see it tonight.” Liu Qingning’s tone was both firm and headstrong.

Tang Song sighed, still with a doting smile at the corner of his mouth: “Alright, I’ll head over and send you a photo in a moment.”

North City Garden is in Yuhua District, about 3 kilometers from the Technology University, so it’s not far.

“Okay, thank you so much, Song, sorry to trouble you.”

After hanging up the phone, Tang Song turned back to the living room.

Shen Yuyan smiled and said, “Finished your call? Let’s continue.”

Tang Song nodded and said, “I need to go out for a bit, let’s talk later.”

Shen Yuyan’s smile slightly stiffened, but she quickly returned to normal, only a fleeting hint of disappointment in her eyes. “Alright, you go ahead.”

Tang Song put on his coat and called out to Xu Qing, who was busy in the kitchen: “Qingqing, I’m stepping out for a while, I’ll be back later.”

Xu Qing, wearing rubber gloves, waved a hand while washing dishes: “Got it, drive safely.”

“Bye-bye.” Tang Song bid Shen Yuyan farewell again, then turned and walked out.

As she watched his back disappear at the door, Shen Yuyan’s smile gradually faded, replaced by a complex emotion.

A bad feeling suddenly crept into her heart.

…

The night was inky, the cold moon hung high, and the stars twinkled.

The glacier white Bentley Continental shimmered with a faint silver glow under the streetlights, like a drifting moonlight, gliding through the silent streets of Yan City.

The wheels rolled over the pavement, making a slight rustling sound, mingling with the coolness of the early autumn night.

About ten minutes later, Yan City University of Science and Technology gradually came into view.

After two turns, Tang Song parked the car at a street corner, his gaze looking forward.

The familiar street still retained its former appearance, with ginkgo trees swaying gently in the breeze on both sides.

Some students, hand in hand, walked past him talking and laughing.

The air was filled with the cool, unique scent of early autumn, mixed with the aroma of earth and fallen leaves.

Tang Song’s thoughts seemed to drift back to the scenes of walking here with Liu Qingning.

Locking the car, Tang Song stepped into the street.

His eyes lowered, carefully examining the ginkgo leaves at his feet, looking for the right target.

After locking the car, Tang Song stepped into the street, his eyes lowered, looking at the leaves on the ground,

He hadn’t walked far.

“Tap, tap-tap—”

Suddenly, light footsteps came from ahead.

In the corner of Tang Song’s eye, a figure slowly emerged from behind a tree.

She tilted her head slightly, a faint smile on her lips, her gaze directly on him.

Tang Song suddenly halted his steps, raising his head to look at the girl in front of him, standing there in a daze.

The light spilled on her, casting dappled halos that blurred the surrounding scenery and his thoughts.

Seeing Tang Song’s dazed expression,

Liu Qingning suddenly laughed, her eyelashes fluttering, casting fine shadows on her cheeks.

Golden ginkgo leaves fell with the wind, swirling around her.

One leaf happened to land on her chest.

Liu Qingning casually picked it up and tossed it at Tang Song, “Hey, what are you daydreaming about? Silly.”
