When facing Xia Zhiyi, Fu Chi was often relatively compliant.
Therefore, Xia Zhiyi always felt that although Fu Chi seemed a bit aloof and not very enthusiastic when interacting with people, he actually had a very good personality.
Not domineering at all.
There was no superiority or aloofness.
In any case, Xia Zhiyi was never unhappy when she was with him.
The flight Xia Zhiyi took from Yue City to the Imperial Capital only took two hours.
So when Xia Zhiyi got off the plane, she walked with the flow of people towards the airport exit while thinking about how to solve her lunch problem.
The prices in Imperial Capital are quite high compared to what I've experienced growing up in Yue City, a... well, a third-tier city.
However, since returning, Xia Zhiyi has not paid much attention to money. Firstly, he has many ways to legally obtain money, and secondly, he is now a person with a real salary. Even with a little girl to support at home, it is not to the point that Xia Zhiyi needs to be frugal.
However, just as they were about to leave the airport, something happened that Xia Zhiyi a little.
He actually encountered fans and was recognized.
Xia Zhiyi: "Wow, I actually have fans? What a surprise!"
The young people who had cautiously gathered around looked on with sparkling eyes. "Wow, it really is Teacher Xia!"
It was a pleasant surprise for both parties.
However, these young people, who were also supposedly studying at university in the Imperial Capital, expressed their admiration for Xia Zhiyi, tentatively asked for an autograph, and then said goodbye to Xia Zhiyi without lingering. They were very well-mannered.
The exchange between the two went unnoticed by those around them; passersby probably thought Xia Zhiyi was in cahoots with the other party.
After meeting up with her assistant who had come to greet her, Xia Zhiyi mentioned the matter. "I didn't expect Sister Chen to be right. I did run into a few people who claimed to be my fans, but they said they were all third-year students at Imperial Capital University, so they should all be older than me. Yet they kept calling me 'teacher,' which was so strange."
The assistant's surname is Ming, Ming Taotao. She is twenty-five years old this year and is a cute girl who looks like a peach. However, she is seven years older than Xia Zhiyi. So after the two got to know each other, Xia Zhiyi still called her Sister Taotao with a smile.
This wasn't something he found difficult to talk about.
Xia Zhiyi has been someone's ancestor and someone's grandson; what does this matter?
When Xia Zhiyi heard Xia Zhiyi call her Sister Taotao Ming Taotao, her affection for Xia Zhiyi kept going up and up!
Especially since Xia Zhiyi's attitude towards her was so natural, Ming Taotao's nervousness on the way here vanished in an instant. Hearing Xia Zhiyi's words, she also showed a bright smile, "Because you're amazing. The accomplished are teachers, after all. Age isn't always the most important thing."
Xia Zhiyi's eyes curved into crescents.
The two got along well until Ming Taotao dropped Xia Zhiyi off at the apartment the company had arranged for him. Only then did Xia Zhiyi say, " Sister Taotao, will you be taking care of things on my end from now on?"
Ming Taotao nodded. " Sister Chen said that if we get along well, I'll be your personal assistant from now on. If you don't feel comfortable, I'll go back to Sister Chen's side first, and she'll find you another assistant."
Xu Chen's work principle is to make things clear in advance, avoid ambiguity, and reduce unnecessary waste.
This drain isn't just financial; it also consumes time, energy, and emotions for both parties. It's not very tactful, but it's highly efficient.
Ming Taotao had actually been working for Xu Chen for a while. She was originally chosen as Fu Yunyi's next assistant because Fu Yunyi's current personal assistant was getting married soon and planned to open a shop in her hometown after the wedding. She had informed the company in advance, so Xu Chen naturally had to make arrangements ahead of time.
However, Xia Zhiyi suddenly appeared at this time. When Fu Yunyi heard that Xu Chen was going to find an assistant for Xia Zhiyi, even though Xu Chen said that there was no rush for Xia Zhiyi, Fu Yunyi still took the initiative to ask Ming Taotao to come and give it a try first.
So Ming Taotao came over.
Xia Zhiyi: "Did Sister Chen just tell you that directly?" He was still a little surprised.
Ming Taotao nodded with a smile.
Xia Zhiyi: "So competitive."
Ming Taotao wholeheartedly agreed, "I think so too. When I first heard those words, I thought Sister Chen was testing me."
The two looked at each other and laughed simultaneously.
At least for now, the two are getting along very well. Ming Taotao's personal abilities haven't been fully demonstrated in the short term, but at least in terms of personality, the two are quite compatible.
So, barring any unforeseen circumstances, Ming Taotao will be staying with Xia Zhiyi from now on.
Xia Zhiyi asked Ming Taotao, "Would you like to go up and take a look, Sister Taotao? If you're not interested, Sister Taotao can wait downstairs for a bit, I'll put my luggage up and come right back down."
The report is for tomorrow; today he can wander around the Imperial Capital at will.
Ming Taotao quickly waved her hand, indicating that she would wait downstairs for a while.
Xia Zhiyi didn't ask any further questions, saying she would come down as soon as possible, and then entered the apartment building.
If he said fast, then he really meant fast. Ming Taotao felt like she had just taken out her phone to share her day's events with her girlfriends when Xia Zhiyi came downstairs.
Ming Taotao:...
Okay, okay.
Xu Chen arranged for someone to pick up Xia Zhiyi, partly to have Ming Taotao help Xia Zhiyi familiarize herself with the environment in the Imperial Capital. At the very least, she wanted to get to know the area around her residence and the university she would be attending.
Xia Zhiyi needs to understand this, Ming Taotao, as her assistant, also needs to understand it.
In this way, if there is any emergency in a critical moment, Xia Zhiyi can clearly state her location, and the company can find someone familiar with the area to come and meet her.
Xia Zhiyi attended University A, which, although not as famous as Imperial Capital University, was still among the top universities in the country. Although Xia Zhiyi chose an unpopular major, it also showed that his college entrance examination score was not low.
There's absolutely no problem saying that Xia Zhiyi is a top student.
And his major...
Information security.
This is why Xia Zhiyi didn't rush to contact the university to ask if he could change his major after returning, because... well, he's familiar with that.
We know each other very well.
It's just that it's not convenient to share it with others right now.
Although Xia Zhiyi's skills are somewhat extraordinary, he did have a history of learning martial arts at a Daoist temple, which his elementary school classmates all knew, so it wasn't entirely unexpected.
As for the others, as long as it doesn't affect those at higher levels, people may be surprised, but it won't arouse suspicion from those above.
But his hacking skills are lacking.
Xia Zhiyi was able to use university to further his career, and the major he was in also gave him more room to develop his abilities.
It also allows him to openly and legitimately find himself the most solid and reliable backer.
