Chapter 332: Chapter 332 - 332: The So-Called ’Friendship Regardless of Age’

Translator: Zayn_

Ji Hui brought Song Qingyou to the lounge.

Along the way, they would occasionally chat.

Song Qingyou guessed that the other party might have suspected her relationship with Jiang Zhihan, which was why he was so polite.

If that was really the case, Ji Hui’s plan would fail.

With that thought in mind, Song Qingyou heard Ji Hui say, “1 work at University A. Not long ago, I happened to see Miss Song meeting with Professor Qin Xiuyuan. Others don’t know Professor Qin and don’t know his personality, but I’ve known him for many years. He’s the kind of person who doesn’t care about anything that has nothing to do with the research project.”

“So, the Professor Song that Professor Qin mentioned should be you. Am 1 right?”

Before Song Qingyou could reply, Ji Hui continued, “Professor Song, don’t be in a hurry to deny it. 1 definitely won’t tell anyone about this. I just want to verify my guess.”

Ji Hui had already called him Professor Song. Although he said that he just wanted to verify, he had already confirmed the result of this conjecture.

Song Qingyou thought for a moment and nodded slightly. “It’s indeed me.” “What a genius!” Ji Hui’s eyes were filled with admiration. “You’re indeed able to achieve great results in any field.”

Whether it was acting or scientific research.

Song Qingyou wasn’t someone who would get carried away just because she heard something nice, so she only asked, “Teacher Ji is looking for me not just to praise me, but to prove his own conjecture?”

Although Song Qingyou didn’t speak much, Ji Hui could tell that she was a straightforward person.

He nodded. “To be honest, after I found out that you were the main person in charge of developing virtual reality technology, I knew that the holographic game project that caused a commotion some time ago was related to you…” “I wonder if the Ji family would have the honor to have a share of the profits?”

Holographic technology naturally couldn’t be used only in the gaming field.

But other aspects were not easy to talk about, so Ji Hui only mentioned games.

“Isn’t Teacher Ji worried about the risk of developing a technology that’s still in development?”

Song Qingyou had no intention of refusing.

Even if it was just for games, the market for holographic technology was very broad. Naturally, the more collaborators, the better.

“Professor Qin praises you endlessly, so of course I choose to believe you.”

Ji Hui smiled and said, “There are always risks in investing.”

Moreover, even though the risk of this investment was not small, the returns were huge.

“Professor Song should need a lot of investment funds in the early stages. 1 happen to have some savings… Even if it’s just to use these investments to exchange for a slot in the game industry, it doesn’t matter. Please don’t reject it directly.”

“I’ll arrange for someone to come over and talk to you in detail.”

Song Qingyou reached out her hand.

Lin Xuyang had not only taken over the logistics company, but he had also taken over her newly-opened investment company.

The investment in virtual reality projects was the company’s top priority.

Therefore, the one who came to discuss with Ji Hui would naturally be Lin Xuyang.

As for how shocked Ji Hui would be after that, it wasn’t within Song Qingyou’s consideration.

Ji Hui shook Song Qingyou’s hand in surprise.

“I hope our cooperation goes smoothly.”

Song Qingyou nodded.

“The banquet downstairs will continue. Professor Song, do you want to go downstairs with me or stay here?”

“Teacher Ji, please keep this a secret.” Song Qingyou stood up, her meaning obvious.

“Don’t worry.”

The two of them only stayed in the lounge for five minutes before they came down from upstairs. This also made some people who had excessive guesses dispel the suspicions in their hearts.

“How did Song Qingyou get to know Teacher Ji? I’ve never heard of them knowing each other before.”

“I just heard from Teacher Ji’s son that he didn’t know that the two of them knew each other.”

“Song Qingyou, you’re so close to Teacher Ji, why didn’t you say anything just now?”

“It’s useless to talk about the previous situation, right?”

“The two of them came out. Why does Teacher Ji seem to be walking behind Song Qingyou? It looks strange.”

“Could the two of them be old friends?”

More and more people were sizing her up downstairs.

Even if they were hiding something, Song Qingyou could still clearly sense it.

The moment Ji Hui went downstairs, he waved and called Ji Yuan over.

“Has that person been chased out?”

“Yes.” Ji Yuan nodded. “He’s the general manager of Hongye Capital.” “Hongye?” Ji Hui thought about which investment company it was and said, “We don’t need to hire people from this company anymore.”

This meant that they were going to cut off all cooperation.

Ji Yuan widened his eyes.

“You haven’t officially apologized to Miss Song yet,” Ji Hui reminded him.

“Teacher Ji, just call me by my name.” Song Qingyou didn’t want more people to find out.

Ji Yuan looked around and wanted to refuse.

“Apologize!” Ji Hui became stern and his voice also became louder. “Not to mention that Qingyou is my good friend, even if she isn’t, you can’t just blindly follow what others say!”

“Yes.” Ji Yuan lowered his head and hesitated for a few seconds before bowing to Song Qingyou.

“I’m sorry.”

Song Qingyou waved her hand. “I’m not angry.”

“You don’t care about it because you have a good temper. This brat has done something wrong. We must let him reflect on himself.”

Ji Hui glared at his son and then thought of a good idea. “How about this? I’ll get Ji Yuan to be your assistant and help you run errands. How about that?”

Ji Yuan was bewildered.

He had never thought that his father would actually ask him to be an assistant to an artiste!

Song Qingyou glanced at him and smiled.

“I don’t need to trouble you, Teacher Ji. I have an assistant.”

Hearing that, Ji Yuan immediately heaved a sigh of relief.

Ji Hui didn’t insist. “It’s good that you don’t want him to be an assistant. Otherwise, he’ll cause you trouble… Young people should have more topics to talk about. You guys are about the same age. It’s good to get to know each other and be friends.”

He raised his hand and patted Ji Yuan’s shoulder. “Qingyou is a very outstanding person. You have to learn from her well.”

“I’ll go entertain the other guests first. Qingyou, if you have anything you need, just order Ji Yuan around.”

After saying that, he turned around to talk to the person who was coming to greet him.

Ji Yuan looked at Song Qingyou, his mind still in a daze.

When he was close to Shen Xiyan in the past, Ji Hui always told him to stay away from her.

Why did he change his attitude when it came to Song Qingyou?

Song Qingyou didn’t care what Ji Yuan was thinking and said calmly, “Mr. Ji, you don’t have to take Teacher Ji’s words to heart. I still have things to do, so I won’t accompany you.”

By the time Ji Yuan reacted, Song Qingyou had already walked into the crowd. Looking at the direction, she was probably going to talk to Ye Guiwan.

Ji Yuan felt relieved. He looked around, trying to find Shen Xiyan.

However, just as he took a step forward, Ji Hui turned around and pressed his shoulder.

“Where are you going?”

“I’m going to find Xiyan. She seems to be troubled.”

“It’s none of your business. You’re not allowed to go!”

Ji Hui scolded in a low voice.

“Take good care of Song Qingyou tonight. Don’t worry about the others!”

Ji Yuan was full of questions, but when he saw Ji Hui’s expression, he did not dare to ask or disobey..
