My Virtual Girlfriend-Chapter 370 Chen Yan is Too Terrifying

Chen Yan actually didn’t know what would happen next. However, he had a feeling that everything would be related to the one encounter he had with Zhang Yonghao and... Jiang Xiaoyun.

But as for what specifically would happen, he had no idea.

And since even Chen Yan was unclear, Song Chuang was even more in the dark.

He stared at Chen Yan, foggy-headed, feeling like Chen Yan was talking about some profound mysteries.

If it were someone else speaking like this, he most likely would think they were just showing off or intentionally obscure. But Chen Yan... had proven his capabilities countless times with actual deeds.

So hearing Chen Yan’s words, Song Chuang always felt like there were some hidden meanings...

He couldn’t help but ponder them.

Just then, Chen Yan stood up, went outside the office, and called out to Jiang Xiaoyun, "Xiao Yun, come here for a sec."

Jiang Xiaoyun, with her ponytail and a bright sunny demeanor, turned around quickly upon hearing the call.

Seeing that it was Chen Yan, a happy expression immediately spread across her face: facing this boss who had treated her well, she always felt gratitude.

So she quickly handed over the documents she was delivering to another employee and then spun around to come into the general manager’s office.

Chen Yan had already sat back down in his chair. Seeing her approach, he smiled and said, "Xiao Yun, do you have any hobbies you usually enjoy?"

Jiang Xiaoyun tilted her head, looking at Chen Yan with her bright, expressive eyes, a hint of confusion in her gaze.

Chen Yan pondered for a moment and said, "I don’t have any specific plans on this trip to Tiandu. Show me any fun activities you usually do tonight."

Hearing Chen Yan’s words, Jiang Xiaoyun quickly nodded, then she pulled out a sticky note from her pocket, wrote a line on it with the back of her hand, and showed it to him, "Chen, how about indoor climbing?"

Seeing the note written by Jiang Xiaoyun, Chen Yan inexplicably felt that going there would lead to something good. So he nodded, "Sure, let’s go there."

After speaking, he looked at Song Chuang, who was still contemplating his words, and said, "Song, come along too."

Song Chuang snapped out of it and quickly waved his hands, "No, no."

He chuckled ruefully, massaging his lower back, "My old arms and legs can’t handle the games you young folks play."

Chen Yan said with a smile, "It’s okay. Join us. If you don’t want to play, you can chat at the bottom."

Hearing Chen Yan put it that way, Song Chuang hesitated for a moment, but then agreed.

Seeing both her bosses, Chen Yan and Song Chuang, agreeing to go climbing with her, Jiang Xiaoyun was a bit dazed until Chen Yan said, "All right, then Xiao Yun, the activities tonight are up to you to arrange. Thanks for the effort." Only then did she come back to her senses.

But the matter being so, all she could do was nod firmly.

The day passed quickly. In the evening, the three of them changed into casual clothes and went together to the indoor climbing gym that Jiang Xiaoyun had arranged beforehand.

Arriving at the climbing gym, Chen Yan and Song Chuang, under the guidance and assistance of Jiang Xiaoyun and the coach, began to climb.

Chen Yan, with a "Constitution +7" buff, caught on very quickly.

Indoor climbing is essentially a simplified version of rock climbing, safer and less difficult, but still quite thrilling.

Chen Yan was in great shape, so after a few tries, his movements had become proficient.

Song Chuang was truly like he described himself, "old arms and old legs," and after fiddling around for a bit at the bottom, he took off his equipment and sat aside to rest.

Jiang Xiaoyun, however, was a revelation.

She seemed to really enjoy and excel at this sport, agile and graceful in her movements. She tackled the higher difficulties with no fear and showcased a radiant smile the whole time she played.

Compared to Chen Yan, who relied on brute strength to simply power through, she was truly in her element.

After playing for a while, Jiang Xiaoyun continued to climb, while Chen Yan sat with Song Chuang to chat.

Looking at her retreating figure, Chen Yan commented with a smile, "Xiao Yun’s personality is really sunny and optimistic."

Song Chuang nodded, "Right. She always seems like she has no worries. Despite being mute, which can be inconvenient or open her to discrimination, she seems completely unaffected."

Chen Yan nodded in agreement.

As the two were chatting and Jiang Xiaoyun was climbing, suddenly a rather familiar voice sounded next to Chen Yan, "Mr. Chen?"

Chen Yan turned his head and saw Zhang Yonghao, who he had just met that day, wearing a sports vest, with a white towel in hand, standing beside him.

He appeared to have just finished exercising, covered in sweat, even his hair drenched and sticking together, wiping himself with the towel.

Seeing Zhang Yonghao, Chen Yan too showed a look of surprise, "Mr. Zhang? You’re here too?"

Recognizing for sure that it was Chen Yan, Zhang Yonghao laughed and said, "Yes. After work, I like to partake in some thrilling activities to experience that sense of adventure."

"I’ve recently taken a liking to climbing. So I’m here to try out indoor climbing first."

"I noticed you guys before but wasn’t sure. Now that I’ve come over, I realize it indeed is you."

Having said that, he laughed and asked, "Do you also like climbing?"

Compared to the businesslike atmosphere at the company in the morning, perhaps because of their shared interest, Zhang Yonghao seemed much more enthusiastic.

But Chen Yan didn’t continue down that path and instead shook his head, "No. I don’t like it."

Zhang Yonghao clearly appeared taken aback, pausing in his sweat-wiping, evidently not expecting Chen Yan’s denial.

Then he saw Chen Yan point to Jiang Xiaoyun and say, "I’m just in Tiandu and was a bit bored tonight. So I had a colleague bring me out to play."

"Turns out she chose indoor climbing."

Saying this, he paused, then added, "But indeed, it’s quite interesting."

Hearing Chen Yan’s words, Zhang Yonghao laughed out loud, saying, "Mr. Chen is really straightforward."

After that, he glanced at Jiang Xiaoyun and commented, "I noticed her earlier. This girl seems truly skilled and agile at this."

He then paused, curiously asking, "She is...?"

Obviously, he had some misunderstanding about Chen Yan and Jiang Xiaoyun’s relationship.

Chen Yan explained, "She’s just a regular colleague. Our company’s admin."

Continuing, Chen Yan patted Song Chuang, who had been silently observing, and introduced, "This is our branch’s General Manager Song. Xiao Yun is the branch admin and is in charge of hosting me this time."

After Chen Yan explained this, Zhang Yonghao showed an expression of realization.

Chen Yan turned to Song Chuang and briefly introduced Zhang Yonghao. Learning that this was the boss of Headline Company and also the boss that Chen Yan aimed to approach, Song Chuang looked utterly surprised.

He felt that his own boss was incredible!

How had they managed to run into the target of their campaign?

Was this... his boss foresaw the future, or was it just a case of extraordinary luck...

As the three chatted, Jiang Xiaoyun finished her round of climbing, took off her equipment, and returned to where Chen Yan and the others were.

Seeing Song Chuang, she also looked surprised, then quickly bowed slightly, as a gesture of greeting.

Chen Yan explained on the side, "Xiao Yun has been mute since young and can’t speak."

Hearing Chen Yan say this, Zhang Yonghao looked at Jiang Xiaoyun in astonishment, then turned his surprised gaze back to Chen Yan, before smiling and greeting Jiang Xiaoyun.

After chatting a bit more, Zhang Yonghao left to continue his own climbing.

Song Chuang watched this interaction with some anxiety, urging Chen Yan to go talk and not miss this great opportunity.

Yet Chen Yan just shook his head and continued climbing with Jiang Xiaoyun.

The gym echoed with their laughter and the sweat they shed together.

During a break, Zhang Yonghao came over again and chatted some more with Chen Yan and the others. This time, he was even more enthusiastic and relaxed.

In the course of their conversation, they even touched on the subject of charity.

When he heard that Chen Yan had founded a charitable foundation planning to invest several hundred million and would operate it privately and transparently, Zhang Yonghao’s eyes lit up with interest.

In the end, he left with a sense of being unfinished, exchanging WeChat contacts with Chen Yan and agreeing to chat some more another day.

Compared to the strictly business demeanor of the morning or even the first time he had come over to chat with Chen Yan, his whole attitude had undergone a noteworthy change.

This left Song Chuang, who had witnessed it all, utterly astonished!

Zhang Yonghao, with his Headline Technology, was also a billionaire and a rising star in the tech world.

Moreover, he was known in Tiandu circles for disliking socializing and being aloof, preferring to immerse himself in his business endeavors.

And yet... just in one evening, he had almost become confidants with his own boss?!

His boss’s capabilities were terrifying!

Thinking back to his boss’s words at noon about "needing just one encounter."

Originally, Song Chuang didn’t understand what this meant. But after witnessing tonight’s events, how could he not understand the importance of that "one encounter."

Without this "one encounter," even if Chen Yan and the others had turned up here and behaved impeccably, Zhang Yonghao wouldn’t have recognized Chen Yan.

And what was particularly chilling upon further reflection was how Chen Yan knew that Zhang Wanhai would be here?

Did he have some other source of information?

As for Jiang Xiaoyun’s arrangement, Song Chuang found a plausible explanation after some thought: Chen Yan had perhaps instructed her in advance or hinted at it...
