Chapter 696: Playing House

“Then what do you think of him?” Luo Mengmeng suddenly asked. She was really too excited after being crazy about him.

Feng Yan pricked up his ears. At that moment, he couldn’t even feel his heart beating anymore.

“He’s fine,” Sheng Yang said calmly. There wasn’t any emotion in her voice, and Feng Yan could hear how perfunctory she was being. His hand silently fell.

She treated him the same way as she treated Ming Qi and Lu Zhiyuan. He was delusional if he thought different.

At this moment, Sheng Yang suddenly saw the books Luo Mengmeng had placed on the table. Her expression instantly became vibrant. It was clearly much better than when she was answering the question earlier. “Can you lend me these books?”

Luo Mengmeng was obviously stunned. “These books?”

She thought Yangyang was only interested in science books. She never expected her to be interested in such books.

“Of course, you can. These books are for my elective class. The psychology teacher recommended them. For example, this book ‘Intimate Relationships’ is about dating. People who want to marry must read it. Hehe, I didn’t expect you to be interested in these books, Yangyang,” Luo Mengmeng teased.

Feng Yan heard it, and his handsome expression became a little difficult.

“Mm.” Sheng Yang took the book from her without explaining.

However, Luo Mengmeng was clearly thinking too much. She thought that Sheng Yang was in love. Girls would still behave like girls and start to study how to manage relationships.

Actually, what evil intentions did Sheng Yang have?

In reality, she just remembered that Yi Juncheng had read a book titled ‘Love Psychology’ the last time. Since he had read it, she had to be involved too. Otherwise, if she went against the flow and did not advance, she would end up retreating instead. She could not admit defeat.

In any case, she liked to read books. She could read fast and absorb the information well, so reading was always better than nothing.

After school, Sheng Yang left for Weixing Underground Auction House.

In the meeting room, the usually quiet management staff were all talking loudly. Only the manager, who had interacted with Sheng Yang before, was sitting properly. There was no change in his expression, and his gaze was unreadable, making it impossible for anyone to tell what he was thinking.

“Our new boss is a young lady who is still wet behind the ears. What are the higher-ups thinking?”

“Didn’t you say that nothing has changed? Boss Kang is still the one managing us. With Boss Kang around, what are you afraid of?”

“Haven’t you been keeping yourself up to date with the news? The latest news is that the girl rejected the boss’ help even though he’s her uncle. She’s decided to manage Weixing Underground Auction House herself.”

“…Is she crazy? Does she think she’s playing house?”

“Sigh, who knows? Her father’s family is a famous family in Yan City. I wonder if you’ve heard of them.”

“Regardless of whether she has any business genes or not, how can the Sheng family compare to Weixing Underground Auction House? This is obviously two different routes. The Sheng family is doing a proper business, but Weixing Underground Auction House is involved in private business and needs to integrate with all parties. Can she handle this?”

“Sigh, has our Weixing Underground Auction House been abandoned? Although our performance has been declining in the past two years, we’re still ahead of other auction houses.”

In any case, most of them were not optimistic about it. The rest were neutral and did not express their opinions.

“Manager Ren, what do you think?” Finally, someone asked the manager who had interacted with Sheng Yang before. The manager only smiled. His gaze was like a torch, and he didn’t say anything.

At this moment, a delicate and graceful figure appeared at the door.
