Chapter 724: Chapter 259: Nanaz and Ah Xi Are Lifelong Best Friends! (2)
Besides money, it’s also important to play the emotional card.
The loafer would occasionally invite Yan Qiuwen out for a meal, and she happily obliged, going whenever she was free.
Perhaps geniuses are too lonely, and it’s rare to find someone to talk to.
But even after doing a lot, Su Zelin still felt unsure about whether Yan Qiuwen would leave when her internship ended next semester.
Anyway, before that, he could only try his best.
Moreover, "special moments" apply not only to girlfriends but also to friends and employees.
Yan Qiuwen has fewer "special moments" than other women because not many things interest or concern her.
However, for women, especially young girls, certain "special moments" are almost universal.
"If there’s nothing else, I’ll get back to work now."
Despite Su Zelin’s ungrudging praise, Yan Qiuwen remained calm and unruffled.
If it were another employee, getting such affirmation from the boss would have made them beam with joy.
"Okay, go on!"
Su Zelin suddenly remembered something and kindly said, "Qiu Wen, don’t work too hard these days, take a good rest, drink more warm water, and if you plan on taking your annual leave early, that’s fine too!"
Yan Qiuwen was slightly startled.
How did he know?
Today, her period started.
Su Zelin’s sudden concern was obviously because of this.
Both are geniuses, though the loafer’s studies were not as focused as Yan Qiuwen’s, but his knowledge was more diverse.
If it was a woman he interacted with frequently and knew well, he could even tell at a glance if it was that time of the month for her.
Even women least affected by their period appear different in energy, and with careful observation, it can be noticed.
If the subject is a young girl, the loafer can even smell it.
His nose is more sensitive than a dog’s.
Many young girls usually have a subtle fragrance, but during their period, this scent mysteriously disappears, perhaps related to physiological changes.
High cost-effective special moments, huh?
Doesn’t work on me.
Yan Qiuwen pouted but still said, "Thanks."
After hesitating for a moment, she added, "Do you have some free time, my parents want to meet you."
Yan Qiuwen’s parents were quite interested in Su Zelin as well, given that the loafer was their daughter’s research subject, and they found him quite peculiar.
Not only did his IQ rival their daughter’s, but he also possessed the actual psychological age of over thirty, something Mrs. Yan had never encountered before.
There are some precocious young people whose psychological age seems over thirty, but it’s just an illusion, and their actual psychological age isn’t that high.
Experts like Mrs. Yan can easily differentiate between precocious individuals and those with a true psychological age through simple tests.
However, Su Zelin seemed to have genuinely lived over thirty years, even more than thirty-five, which is extremely rare (three and a half years of past life + rebirth).
"Your parents want to meet me?"
Su Zelin was quite surprised.
He quickly figured out the reason.
Amidst many better internship options than New Era, both state-owned and private, his parents should be curious about why she chose a company with limited scale, and they also probably knew he was her daughter’s research subject.
But with Yan Qiuwen being so extraordinary, her parents would be even more remarkable.
Apparently, they are honorary members of a research institute.
Hopefully, they won’t send me for dissection.
At this thought, the loafer couldn’t help but feel anxious.
"Don’t worry, it’s just a dinner at my house to chat, nothing else!"
Yan Qiuwen reassured him with a bit of annoyance.
With her assurance, Su Zelin breathed a sigh of relief and replied with a dry laugh, "Sure, when?"
After all, her parents are professors with a high status and also the parents of his money tree, so he couldn’t refuse.
"Let’s talk when you’re done with work and on your annual leave."
Near the end of the year, every company is usually at its busiest, let alone when Su Zelin has personal matters aside from work.
Qin Shiqing returned today.
He might also have other girlfriends returning these days.
He definitely wouldn’t want to miss such "high cost-effective special moments."
So Yan Qiuwen decided to wait until after his annual leave to save Su Zelin from any awkwardness.
"Alright, that’s perfect!"
Su Zelin thought Qiu Wen was considerate, waiting for him to finish other things before arranging it.
Furthermore, to retain Yan Qiuwen, starting with her parents might be quite effective.
...
At noon, quite a few guys gathered at the entrance of Zhejiang University, waiting for their girlfriends who just returned from their internships in Shenghai.
Such "special moments" are evident to anyone with a decent sense.
Upon a long-awaited reunion with their girlfriends, not showing up to pick them up would surely lead to a breakup.
If caught in such a common "special moment," one must consider how to stand out.
The more straightforward ones came empty-handed, planning to help with luggage.
The slightly more thoughtful ones carried flowers for a more romantic gesture.
But Su Zelin was different from the others.
The loafer never took the usual path.
He carried a plastic bag with a few packs of snacks: dried plums, candied orange peel, olives, and sour ginger peel.
Such acidic snacks help stimulate the taste system, relieve motion sickness, and when consumed after disembarking, aid in quick recovery from it.
Besides the snacks, there was a thermos containing not only warm water but also slices of lemon and mint, which served a similar purpose as the snacks, but drinking them is easier to absorb, offering better results combined.
