22. Astonishing Moments.

In the midst of Dang Yuyan's deep inner conflict, Tang Song's attention had returned to the system.

Impatiently selecting the "Industry Exchange Card (1 million)," he immediately used it.

"Ding, successful use of the item, industry selection in progress..."

"Congratulations, host! You have obtained a random industry (Time Coffee Shop). Please go to 118 Heping Road, Huaxin District, Yancheng to claim it after 3 days."

Time Coffee Shop?

Not winning a property made Tang Song feel a bit disappointed. After all, his biggest dream was to settle down in Yancheng.

However, a coffee shop worth a million yuan could still generate a steady income if managed properly. The system-given industry should not be a loss-making venture.

Now, the next step was to consider how to run this coffee shop. Tang Song couldn't personally handle it, being a player with the system and unable to waste all his energy on it.

Hiring someone to manage it would be the best option, preferably someone close, like a family member or girlfriend, to avoid potential financial disputes.

However, Tang Song didn't have many relatives in Yancheng, and a girlfriend was nowhere in sight.

As Tang Song contemplated, Dang Yuyan whispered, "Tang Song, can I take a photo with Mr. Li later?"

Tang Song was puzzled, "Why?"

After some hesitation, Dang Yuyan confessed, "There's a sales leader in our company who often harasses me. Mr. Li is a big client, so if..."

She didn't finish her sentence, but it was clear she intended to use Li Mingbo's influence to deter the unwanted advances of that leader.

"Sure, no problem," Tang Song agreed readily, patting Li Mingbo, who was sitting beside him. "Brother Li, let's take a photo together."

He then tapped Dang Yuyan's arm, displaying a soft and delicate touch that made Tang Song somewhat distracted.

"Li Ge, don't make fun of us. The young lady here is a bit shy," Tang Song awkwardly chuckled.

Dang Yuyan remained silent, not just out of shyness, but also a tacit agreement.

Click.

Secretary Chen, standing at the door, pressed the shutter button on Dang Yuyan's phone.

"Let me see, let me see," Dang Yuyan hurriedly checked the photo just taken.

In the picture, she stood close to Tang Song, her white chiffon dress showcasing her slender arms draped around Tang Song's, her graceful neck slightly tilting towards him, and a smile of happiness on her enchanting face.

Beside her was a tall and handsome man, broad-shouldered with a narrow waist, fair skin, thin lips, a straight nose, and a white T-shirt revealing subtle muscular contours, exuding masculine charm.

Three other imposing executives stood on each side. Li Mingbo happened to stand on her left.

Everything was even better than she expected.

At this moment, Dang Yuyan felt like she had finally found her Prince Charming.

Tang Song chuckled, "Beauty, remember to send me a copy of the photo later."

With the precedent of completing a hidden task, Tang Song realized the importance of expanding his social network. The rewards the system might offer were worth looking forward to.

Thinking of this, he continued to engage in conversation with these middle-aged gentlemen. Dang Yuyan stood there quietly, enthusiastically observing for quite some time before sharing the photo with Tang Song.

Along with it, she sent a shy expression.

Tang Song could only reply with a hugging.gif.

Dang Yuyan's eyes sparkled as she replied with the same hugging emoji.

Then, she opened her Moments, shared the photo, and started crafting a caption.

"An incredibly happy day! Today, I unexpectedly met Mr. Li Mingbo, the head of Hengda Motors. He's a wonderful person, and I've learned a lot from our conversation. It's my first time having a meal with so many big shots; I was a bit nervous, but fortunately, I had old classmates to accompany me."

After hesitating about who could see the post, she decided not to block Tang Song.

She thought, whatever, let's just show it to everyone.

Clicking 'Publish,' she breathed a sigh of relief.

Then, she remembered something, sneaking a peek at Tang Song, who was chatting happily with the executives.

Under the posted update, she added a comment.

"The photo also includes Mr. Wang, the president of Zhongcheng Group, Mr. Bai from Baolong Motors, Mr. Zhang from Tianhai Realty, Mr. Liang from Guangyuan Trading, and the owner of the banquet restaurant, Mr. Xie. Shivering with excitement~ I feel so small!"

Dang Yuyan's Moments were regularly updated, featuring beautiful pictures and sharing small surprises from work and life. Because of the recent harassment from her supervisor, she hadn't posted anything for a week.

This time, having just posted it, several regular friends quickly liked and commented on it.

Li Lili: "Wow, Yuyan, who's the handsome guy next to you? Please introduce me!"

Zhang Yuhang: "Goddess, have you found your Mr. Right? I'm crying."

Chen Xiaoting: "The banquet restaurant across from our school, I haven't been there in a long time. I miss the roast duck."

...

These were her old classmates or ordinary friends, unaware of the identities of those in the photo.

Next, it was just a matter of waiting for colleagues at the company to see this dynamic. She believed it wouldn't take long to achieve the desired effect.

After a while, she reopened her Moments.

Finance - Xu Bo: "Is that really Mr. Li? I thought my eyes were playing tricks on me."

Team Leader Liu: "Little Dang, you've really hidden your true self!"

Human Resources - Zhang Yuqin: "My goodness, and that's Mr. Wang from Zhongcheng Group. I've met him at an event before."

Mingyang: "My bestie is in love, and I had no idea???"

Ding, ding, ding. WeChat messages suddenly started ringing incessantly.

Dang Yuyan checked and found someone had continuously mentioned her in a work group.

Development - Wang Shunyu: "@Dang Yuyan, are you pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger?"

Development - Liu Xuecheng: "Yuyan has such connections, she could easily transfer to the sales department."

Sales - Li Jingyuan: "What are you guys talking about? I don't understand..."

Seeing the confusion from colleagues in other departments, Wang Shunyu directly forwarded the photo from Dang Yuyan's Moments.

In an instant, shockwaves spread.
