Her phone was set to vibrate and placed on the desk. When a message came through, she saw it immediately and casually picked it up to check. To her surprise, it was from Chen Feng. She felt both astonished and pleasantly surprised.

After the last class reunion, she actually had some feelings about Chen Feng, after all, Chen Feng was the most accomplished among her male classmates.

However, she had always been a reserved woman, not one to flirt with men casually, let alone pursue them. Therefore, she could only keep her thoughts to herself, waiting for a possible future connection.

Now that Chen Feng had suddenly reached out to her, it was only natural for her to have some thoughts about it.

She immediately opened the message. Although it wasn't what she had imagined, she was still quite pleased. She quickly replied: [Okay. I'm free tomorrow at noon, you can choose the place.]

Chen Feng, seeing her agreement, also breathed a sigh of relief. He was really worried that Jiang Shasha would misunderstand or not give him face.

[Okay. Thank you, Miss Jiang, for honoring me. I'll send you the place later.]

Seeing his message, Jiang Shasha quickly thought about her wording and finally just sent back:

[Okay]

And that's how the matter was settled. Both of them were straightforward and didn't engage in unnecessary chatter.

Chen Feng initially wanted to say more to her, but ultimately felt it was unnecessary to avoid bothering her.

On the other hand, Jiang Shasha stared at her phone screen for a full five minutes and only exhaled deeply after seeing that Chen Feng hadn't sent any more messages.

She was actually a bit nervous just now, feeling her palms getting sweaty. This annoyed her slightly.

Her job required her to have a firm mind and a strong character, to have the composure of a mountain collapsing without changing her expression.

Yet she got nervous and sweaty just by messaging Chen Feng, which was really inappropriate.

Jiang Shasha quickly calmed herself down and then began imagining the scenarios for her meeting with Chen Feng tomorrow, preparing for any possible situations. This was a way to be prudent.

After arranging the meeting with Jiang Shasha, Chen Feng told Wu Mengting and asked her for suggestions on where to meet.

Since it was lunchtime, it was naturally also an occasion to have a meal. So, either a Chinese or Western restaurant would work.

Fuman Building was actually fine, but going there with just two or three people seemed a bit extravagant, plus Chen Feng had just eaten there tonight and was already tired of it.

After consulting with Wu Mengting and Sun Xiaorui, the two women searched on their phones for a while and finally made a decision: a western restaurant five kilometers away from Red Villa Bay, located by East Lake. It was a high-end restaurant in a good location with a great view and a decent reputation.

Chen Feng used a mobile app to reserve a table in advance at this western restaurant. Seeing it was only a little past eight in the evening, Chen Feng sent the location to Jiang Shasha, saying if she was not satisfied, he could change the place.

Jiang Shasha quickly replied, expressing her satisfaction with the choice.

And so, the meeting place was settled.

This time, Chen Feng didn't say much to her again, for the same reason of not wanting to disturb her.

And this time, Jiang Shasha was much calmer. She didn't stare at her phone screen and calmed herself after a few minutes when Chen Feng didn't send more messages, continuing to review case files.

The next morning, Chen Feng and Sun Xiaorui woke up a bit late, while Wu Mengting had already finished breakfast and was watching TV, and they hadn't even gotten up yet.

Wu Mengting, of course, knew what the two were up to and, feeling a bit annoyed, drove herself to work first.

By the time Chen Feng and Sun Xiaorui came downstairs, it was almost nine o'clock, and naturally, Wu Mengting was long gone, making Sun Xiaorui feel quite embarrassed.

Previously, Sun Xiaorui would ride with Wu Mengting to work, and now that Wu Mengting had driven off, commuting became a bit inconvenient for her.

Although the company was relatively close, it was still counted by car travel. Walking would take at least twenty to thirty minutes, and even if taking a taxi, it would take a few minutes just to walk to the community gate.

Currently, besides Chen Feng's Buick, there wasn't even a bicycle or electric scooter available.

Chen Feng, not having much to do, was fine with driving her to work. In the car, Sun Xiaorui mentioned she wanted to buy an electric scooter for convenient solo trips.

Chen Feng didn't object, as having a scooter at home indeed made short trips easier. However, having a car was also necessary.

Thus, Chen Feng said that in the future, she could use his Buick as a vehicle, and he was planning to get a new car for himself.

Though he had always tried to remain low-key by driving a thirty-something thousand Buick, now with his improved status and his family knowing about his wealth, it was time to change his ride. He would see what specific car to switch to later.

After dropping Sun Xiaorui at the company, since he was there, he naturally took the opportunity to go up, making his presence known as the boss.

He didn't have anything particular to do at the office this time, just fiddled with his phone and watched videos and news online on his computer.

This quickly passed the time.

By lunchtime, he planned to take Wu Mengting to meet Jiang Shasha.

However, Wu Mengting expressed her wish not to go, as she had some backlog of work and felt it would be awkward for Chen Feng to bring her along to meet a female classmate, which might displease the female classmate.

For her uncle's case, she didn't mind if Chen Feng went alone to meet the female classmate.

Chen Feng didn't think much of it. Since Wu Mengting wasn't going, he went to the western restaurant by himself.

The appointed time was twelve o'clock. He arrived about ten minutes early, and Jiang Shasha followed shortly after, just two or three minutes later.

Sitting face to face, both of them took their menus and ordered.

After ordering, Chen Feng smiled and said to her, "Your outfit makes you look intellectual and beautiful."

Chen Feng's compliment was genuine. Because she was working, she was wearing her work uniform with a badge pinned on her chest. One look and you could tell she worked for the government. If not respectful, it did make people take a second look. After all, she wasn't bad-looking, and her figure was slender.

Office women in professional attire often have an intellectual beauty, especially if they're not unattractive.

Jiang Shasha chuckled and said, "Thank you for the compliment. But compared to Liu Ying, our class beauty, I'm far behind. I thought you'd bring her along this time, didn't expect you'd come alone."

When Chen Feng heard her suddenly mention Liu Ying, he felt a slight discomfort. Liu Ying hadn't been to work for several days, having taken sick leave.

During these days, neither Chen Feng nor she had contacted each other.

Although Chen Feng occasionally thought of Liu Ying, he mostly pushed her out of his mind. Ultimately, he didn't have deep feelings for her.
