I am not just a tycoon

Chapter 299: Chapter 273: Coach Liew’s Talent and Soul_2

Shen Yuan gathered his thoughts, continued reading “The Art of Public Speaking,” and picked up a ballpoint pen to underline the key points.

He had always relied on Teacher Lih, but now he had to try to organize the main points himself.

Time always flew when he was focused, and before he knew it, it was time to clock out.

Shen Yuan hadn’t noticed at first, not until he saw employees passing by outside the glass intermittently. He glanced at the watch on his wrist and realized it was already 5:30 PM.

He, too, had an appointment to attend. Luo Bingying had invited him to dinner, and Zhou Peiwei would also be there, at a high-end restaurant Shen Yuan had never been to.

Shen Yuan stood up, stretched lazily, then prepared to leave, when the office’s glass door was pushed open.

In this company, only three people mentored by Liew Menglu could enter Shen Yuan’s office freely, but Liew Menglu and Long Jinghan would at least knock, while Qiao Lei never had the habit of knocking.

Qiao Lei confidently walked in and asked, “Mr. Shen, what are you up to?”

With that assertive tone and the title “Mr. Shen,” Shen Yuan felt it was strange, “Just be normal, don’t call me Mr. Shen.”

Qiao Lei muttered, “Jinghan senior told me to address people by their positions at the company.”

“We’re off the clock now, just call me whatever you usually call me.”

“Calling you Mr. Shen feels too formal, calling you Shen Yuan seems too mundane, and calling you ‘hubby’ like Liew Menglu does is just too cheesy.”

Qiao Lei pondered for a moment, “I really don’t know what to call you then.”

Shen Yuan laughed, “Calling me ‘dad’ is pretty good.”

“Dream on.”

Qiao Lei “hmmphed” and then said, “Then I’ll call you senior, how about that? You are my senior after all.”

“If it makes you happy.”

Shen Yuan walked over and ruffled the head of this capricious junior, then asked, “Where’s Long Jinghan, aren’t you two sisters inseparable?”

“She went to the bathroom.”

Qiao Lei pushed away Shen Yuan’s hand, discontented, and then asked, “Senior, are you joining us for dinner tonight?”

“I have plans tonight.”

“You always say you have plans whenever I ask.”

Qiao Lei stuck out her tongue, then asked again, “It wouldn’t be because Jinghan senior has her ‘aunt’ visiting, so you’re making up excuses, right? But I don’t!”

Shen Yuan remained noncommittal, “I really have plans tonight. Do I seem that lascivious in your eyes?”

Qiao Lei “hehe’d,” “It’s not that you seem lascivious in my heart, it’s just an undeniable fact that you are lascivious.”

“What a bunch of nonsense!”

Shen Yuan cursed, then continued, “Have you decided on the apartment yet, or do you prefer staying at a hotel on a long-term basis?”

“We’ll live in a residential complex, but Jinghan senior and I plan to live in the same complex as Liew Menglu, so we can visit each other often.”

Qiao Lei looked at Shen Yuan, “You must be happy if we live in the same complex, right?”

Shen Yuan responded, “Oh, would you believe me if I said I’m not happy?”

“I wouldn’t!”

“Then why even ask.”

Shen Yuan cursed again, then added a reminder, “But I should also remind you, Liew Menglu’s style isn’t for everyone, and sometimes it’s good to maintain your own character.”

“I know that.”

“Yet, there are some things you really should learn from her.”

Shen Yuan said this, then suddenly lowered his voice.

Curious, Qiao Lei asked, “What is it?”

Shen Yuan whispered something in her ear, causing Qiao Lei’s cheeks to instantly turn crimson, followed by a bashful punch, “I could never say such things.”

“That just means your willingness to improve isn’t strong enough.”

“Alright, I’m leaving.”

Having said that, Shen Yuan strode out of the office.

That night, Liew Menglu’s performance was witnessed by everyone, that was the essence of Coach Liew…

While natural talent in physiological aspects is unchangeable, there are things that can be learned later, it just depends on whether Qiao Lei and Long Jinghan are willing to learn.

Not long after Shen Yuan left, Long Jinghan walked in and looked at Qiao Lei, asking, “Why are you alone, where’s Shen Yuan?”

“He said he has plans tonight.”

Qiao Lei clutched her arm, lowering her voice, “He told us to keep our own character, not to learn everything from Liew Menglu. But he suggested we should still learn some things.”

Long Jinghan became curious, “Like what?”

Qiao Lei mysteriously said, “Moaning sounds, and the lines while moaning, like: ‘Brother, you’re too amazing, why don’t you start with them first, I really can’t keep up.’@@novelbin@@

Long Jinghan’s cheeks immediately blushed, “That… that’s too embarrassing.”

Qiao Lei gritted her teeth, “That’s why I said it can’t be learned.”

“…..”

Meanwhile, Shen Yuan drove to the predetermined restaurant, ready to ask a waiter for directions to the reserved private dining room, when a surprised voice suddenly came from behind him.

“Shen Yuan!”

Shen Yuan turned his head, surprised to see Jin Kangwen and Cherng Xian, along with another unfamiliar man who looked somewhat arrogant and difficult to get along with.

“Kangwen, Cherng Xian, you guys are also dining here.”

Shen Yuan responded with a smile.

Jin Kangwen chuckled, “Yeah, just hanging out with some friends. What about you? Who’s the beauty you’re meeting for dinner tonight?”

“You got it wrong, a beauty invited me to dinner, not the other way around,” Shen Yuan joked.

“Damn, you lucky guy!”

Jin Kangwen laughed and cursed.

Although Jin Kangwen and Cherng Xian were smiling, the arrogant man glanced at Shen Yuan with a slightly displeased expression.

Jin Kangwen then suggested, “If you’re free tonight, want to join us at Tipsy?”

“Can’t promise, depends on my schedule. If I’m free, I’ll come,” Shen Yuan said.
