I came here specifically to sever ties with the Zhou family!

"The Second Young Master will be coming later, right? I've seen him on Douyin several times, I didn't expect to actually see him in person!"

"He'll definitely be here, Sister He already told us."

"That's great..."

"Based on my current grades, getting into Tsinghua or Peking Tsinghua University shouldn't be much of a problem. If I work hard and get a Master's degree, I hope to enter Chenyang Group directly instead of a subsidiary."

"I'm thinking more or less the same thing..."

"If I get a chance to talk to the Second Young Master later, I'll definitely thank him properly. I was born in the mountains, my father died long ago, and my mother is disabled. If the Zhou Family hadn't helped me, I probably would have dropped out of school long ago."

The companions around her kept chatting, the main topics being Zhou Cheng and the prospect of joining Chenyang Group in the future.

Only Qiu Yuwei's expression remained unchanged as she kept silent. She felt neither surprise at the luxurious environment of the Haosheng Hotel nor any yearning for Chenyang Group.

She didn't even have basic gratitude toward Chenyang Group... Meanwhile, Zhou Cheng sat leisurely in the car as He Yubing kept talking about her arrangements for those students.

"Second Young Master, Qiu Yuwei is a truly outstanding child, especially since she's already been recommended for admission to Tsinghua through the Olympiad."

"I've already used our resources to have Professor Nie's team contact her. Professor Nie will personally mentor her through a combined Bachelor's and Master's program, and then she'll go abroad to study."

"If she truly succeeds in her studies, after she returns, I'll mentor her for a year myself and then let her go to Xingchen Technology Company. What do you think?"

He Yubing's arrangements for Qiu Yuwei could be described as extremely meticulous.

"Second Young Master, I know Xingchen Technology is our top priority right now, but I can guarantee she won't let us down when the time comes!"

He Yubing spoke, her affection for Qiu Yuwei unconcealed in her words.

With these arrangements, she was using resources to get a professor to mentor her and spending money to send her abroad!

She even wanted to personally mentor her upon her return and arrange for her to go to Xingchen Technology Company.

If he didn't know it was impossible for He Yubing to have children right now...

Zhou Cheng would have suspected that Qiu Yuwei was He Yubing's daughter!

Listening to He Yubing, Zhou Cheng neither agreed nor objected.

Xingchen Technology was one of his future focuses; Zhou Cheng would not let anyone interfere easily!

"We'll see. It's still early," Zhou Cheng said casually.

This was a short drama world, after all; he didn't have much trust in people he hadn't met.

At that moment, the car came to a smooth stop outside the Haosheng Hotel.

Without Zhou Cheng having to open the door, Manager Wu, who had been waiting outside the hotel, quickly pulled it open for him.

"Second Young Master," Manager Wu greeted respectfully.

"Mm," Zhou Cheng nodded.

As for He Yubing, after getting out from the other side, she took out a large pile of gifts from the trunk with the help of her assistant, all in small gift boxes.

She had carefully selected these for the students!

She split half of them and shoved them all into Zhou Cheng's arms.

"These are small gifts I bought for them."

Zhou Cheng held the gift boxes and glanced at He Yubing.

"Couldn't you just have Manager Wu find someone to carry them in? Why shove them into my arms?"

"If someone else carries them in, how could it be as effective as you bringing them in and giving them to them personally?

When you hand the gifts to them yourself, won't they be loyal to you? Won't they work their hardest for you and Chenyang Group in the future?"

"Uh..." Zhou Cheng smiled helplessly.

Why go through all this trouble? Since when was Chenyang Group short on talent?

This made it seem like Chenyang Group was begging them.

Whatever, since He Yubing had prepared them, he would do as she wished... "Second Young Master, I took a quick look just now. Every one of the students our Chenyang Group is sponsoring this time is a potential star, especially one girl who is particularly outstanding..."

As Manager Wu led the way, he recounted how Qiu Yuwei had stood up to the socialites earlier.

His words were full of praise.

"He must be talking about Yuwei," He Yubing said, standing beside Zhou Cheng.

"Oh," Zhou Cheng nodded.

A moment later, Zhou Cheng, He Yubing, and the others walked into the private room.

The manager in charge of the gathering saw Zhou Cheng and immediately led everyone in a round of applause.

While the students clapped, they also kept sizing up Zhou Cheng!

With sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes, his gaze was sharp, carrying an air of non-negotiable dominance.

The deep blue custom-made suit perfectly accentuated Zhou Cheng's physique!

He was dashing, decisive, and exuded nobility!

"The Second Young Master is so handsome!"

"If I could, I'd marry the Second Young Master to thank the Zhou Family for all the help they've given me."

"That's true, and you're very grateful, but bro, you're a guy!"

"Yuwei, the Second Young Master is only in his twenties, right? He's only six or seven years older than me. If I join Chenyang Group later and he's not married yet, would I have a chance?"

"Uh..."

Qiu Yuwei gave her companion a sidelong glance.

At this moment, everyone was clapping to welcome Zhou Cheng, except for Qiu Yuwei.

If she didn't have business here, she wouldn't even have come!

There were thirty students present. They had spent their first two years of high school in their respective provinces. Because of their outstanding grades, they had passed Chenyang Group's preliminary selection and were then brought to Shanghai to attend school!

After the applause ended, the students swarmed forward, surrounding Zhou Cheng and He Yubing, calling her 'Sister He' one after another.

"Everyone, please take your seats first, okay?" He Yubing called out with a smile.

Then she formally introduced Zhou Cheng to everyone!

"The one holding the gifts is the Second Young Master of Chenyang Group, Zhou Cheng. He's also the person who has been helping all of you. So please sit down and wait for the Second Young Master to give you the gifts."

After she finished, everyone obediently sat in their chairs!

As for Zhou Cheng, he had only come because He Yubing insisted, so for now, he was just acting as a tool, following her while holding the gifts.

He hadn't even agreed when He Yubing wanted him to hand out the gifts personally.

So He Yubing had to hand them out herself!

"Here, Xiao Hao, take this gift. Good luck on your exam in two days." He Yubing began handing out gifts with Zhou Cheng in tow.

The gifts weren't expensive, just some accessories.

"Thank you, Sister He! Thank you, Second Young Master!" The student took the gift with a beaming smile, sincerely thanking He Yubing and Zhou Cheng.

Several more people received their gifts.

Finally, it was Qiu Yuwei's turn.

When He Yubing saw her, she specifically took a different gift from her assistant. Clearly, this was one He Yubing had specially chosen for Qiu Yuwei!

"Yuwei, here, this is a gift I picked out specifically for you. Open it and take a look in a bit." He Yubing looked at Qiu Yuwei kindly!

However, Qiu Yuwei only glanced at He Yubing's gift and said directly:

"No need, I don't want a gift!"

"I came this time specifically to cut ties with the Zhou Family and Chenyang Group!"

Her voice was cold, causing the smile on He Yubing's face to instantly freeze.

The others were even more shocked, their brows furrowing deeply at Qiu Yuwei's words!
