Chapter 309: There’s Progress Here 308
“Sure… can you help me put it on?”
As she said this, Han Yixuan lowered her delicate face, subconsciously trying to cover the blush rising on her cheeks. But the young girl didn’t know that at this moment, not only her cheeks, but even her neck and ears were a bit red, which couldn’t be covered at all.
The experienced Wang Heng certainly wouldn’t falter, and softly replied: “Happy to help.”
Then he picked up the watch and put it on the young girl’s wrist—in the short few seconds, he didn’t actively hold her hand, but since it was putting on a watch, it was natural to touch a few times, intentionally or not, teasing the young girl and making her heart itch.
“Take a look. If you’re not satisfied, just say so. We can exchange it.”
Hearing Wang Heng finish, Han Yixuan finally lifted her face, looked at the watch on her wrist, then gazed at the boy in front of her, and nodded.
The young girl bit her lip and said softly: “No need to exchange it. I’m especially satisfied. But just me receiving a gift feels too embarrassing… Do you have anything you want?”
Wang Heng: “I’m the boss after all. How can I ask a subordinate for something?”
Han Yixuan shook her head slightly: “Not as a subordinate, just as… a gift from a classmate and friend.”
Wang Heng smiled: “The mechanical keyboard you gave me before is great. I’m still using it now.”
Han Yixuan probed: “So what do you use the keyboard for? Playing games?”
Wang Heng: “Mainly typing, and also some things for school.”
Han Yixuan: “You haven’t been playing games much lately?”
This kind of question certainly needed to be probed well. After all, no matter which game he answered, Han Yixuan could secretly note it down, practice it proficiently, and then find a way to play together with him.
Wang Heng: “I do play, but mainly single-player games.”
Single-player?
Can’t play online together, so the meaning seems much smaller. But on the other hand, as long as she plays around a bit, they can have a common language, which seems not bad either.
Han Yixuan pretended to casually continue asking: “What single-player game have you been playing lately? I actually really want to try some, but I don’t know what to play.”
Wang Heng: “Civilization, Crusader Kings, Mount & Blade, FIFA, Need for Speed, Spore, Kinkey…”
Han Yixuan: “You play so many?”
The young girl, who didn’t know much about games, didn’t notice the somewhat out-of-place one among these game names, and was only slightly surprised by the quantity.
Wang Heng shrugged: “They’re all single-player games, unlike online playing together which goes on endlessly. Just as pastime, play around occasionally. Actually, most of the time, my computer is used for programming.”
Hearing this, Han Yixuan suddenly realized a certain choice.
For her, this choice seemed a bit heavy, but for her goal…
The young girl gritted her teeth inwardly, but kept a serene smile on her face: “Speaking of which, I’m pretty interested in programming too. Boss, do you want to teach me?”
That’s right, having Wang Heng teach her programming would mean more and more time together, and the kind with constant conversation and interaction. On the other hand, this also seemed like no small burden.
Wang Heng shook his head: “Besides school coursework now, you also have to learn how to be an assistant in practice. You already have a lot to do. Adding more burden to yourself, do you still have time for entertainment and rest?”
Han Yixuan: “I can always squeeze some out.”
“Better not. Seeing you so hardworking and diligent puts a lot of pressure on me…” Wang Heng suddenly sighed, mocking himself, “Besides running the company to earn money, I actually have quite a few plans too, like delving into big data and AI, doing scientific research and writing theses. But compared to earning money, those things are tiring and slow to show results, so I find it hard to persevere. If only I could be as hardworking and diligent as you.”
Han Yixuan smiled faintly: “President Wang, don’t be too modest. Your current achievements—those geniuses at school couldn’t achieve them no matter how hard they try.”
Right, of course not. After all, no matter how genius, they’re not reincarnators.
Wang Heng smiled and slightly changed the direction of the topic.
He said: “Since you’re so motivated to study, but I often slack off and can’t help playing games and such… In that case, how about we get together to study when we have time?”
Han Yixuan was shocked.
Has this fish really grown up? Not even hooked yet, and it’s learned to jump into the bucket itself!
She subconsciously wanted to nod vigorously in agreement, but then the young girl thought she should still keep a bit of a girl’s reserve, so she smiled: “Besides work time, does the boss want to occupy my personal time too?”
Wang Heng countered: “You unwilling? Then how about…”
“Not unwilling,” Han Yixuan quickly said, “Let me think. It’s just that my school is a bit far from yours, transferring subway back and forth is a bit troublesome.”
Wang Heng: “That’s easy to handle. I’ll reimburse your taxi fare.”
Han Yixuan demurely adjusted the strand of hair by her ear: “Since President Wang is so sincere, of course I won’t refuse.”
Wang Heng: “Actually, you can also say no…”
Looking at his gaze with a hint of playfulness, Han Yixuan of course understood that he was teasing her.
The young girl “hmph”ed and turned her face away, her expression slightly shy and annoyed—but in those peach blossom eyes, a spring-like smile still couldn’t help but ripple.
Him willing to tease means what?
This is progress!

Leaving Han Yixuan, Wang Heng returned to the school dormitory—ever since renting the house to Pei Ningle, Wang Heng had moved back.
Sitting at the desk, he first sent a WeChat to Ye Xun: 【Tomorrow is Sunday. Do you have time? I have something I want to give you. Not sure if it’s convenient to go to your house.】
Then he sent a WeChat to Lu Qi too: 【Sister Lu, your holiday isn’t over yet, right? Do you have time the day after tomorrow? I have something I want to give you.】
In the dormitory, no one else was there at the moment, so the hamster could rest assured vocalize.
It sighed: “No need for me to teach you. You’re already a time management master!”
Wang Heng shrugged: “Just the experience from the previous cycle is enough. Of course no need for your guidance.”
Hamster: “By the way, that thing you bought for Ye Xun, she can’t wear it out, right? High school student—schools have very strict regulations on appearance, no jewelry allowed.”
Wang Heng smiled slightly: “Rest assured, there’s a way.”
At this time, Ye Xun’s reply had arrived.
【Of course I have time! From noon onward. For then, can I trouble Senior Male Student to make our lunch? I’ll wash dishes and buy groceries, no problem!】
Wang Heng: “This girl is much more frank than Han Yixuan.”

Starting tomorrow, strive to update earlier… My schedule has been off lately.
