Jin Lan was pushed to the ground by her, and his heart gradually cooled. She was willing to come to him only to repay a kindness, not out of love.
He gave a wry smile, slowly got up, and sat back at the dining table, picking up his chopsticks to continue eating.
Jiang Yan washed her face, ran back to her room to change, and then left without looking back.
The apartment door was closed. Jin Lan paused his chopsticks and continued to eat with a blank expression.
The originally delicious food now tasted bland, yet he still shoveled large mouthfuls into his mouth. In the end, he raised his hand and swept everything on the table to the floor, leaving a mess.
...
After the holiday, Ye Wan and Jiang Yan both returned to school. Jiang Yan was like a changed person now. She no longer chattered about handsome men and beautiful women, dedicating all her energy to her studies. She had also chosen two elective courses: Business Administration and Law.
Seeing her so serious, Ye Wan also chose an elective course in addition to her Chinese language classes, opting for Design.
This meant they could no longer attend classes together all the time.
When Ye Wan attended her elective class, students from the design department were also present. They all stared curiously at Ye Wan, the campus belle. Zheng Zi'er hadn't even noticed her when she arrived, which made her furious. In the past, she was always the center of attention.
She felt Ye Wan was doing it on purpose, deliberately choosing to attend classes in the design department. While appearing to be unassuming and serene on the surface, she was actually a calculating schemer.
"Zi'er is here. What good is being the campus belle when our Zi'er is CEO Gu's girlfriend?" a female voice said loudly.
Ye Wan, who had been reading, hadn't noticed the surrounding situation at all. Suddenly hearing "CEO Gu," she looked up. Could Zheng Zi'er's boyfriend also be surnamed Gu?
"That's the CEO of the renowned Gu Corporation! He dotes on our Zi'er like a treasure!"
Ye Wan's eyes widened in shock after hearing this. Gu... Gu Yunting? When did he become Zheng Zi'er's boyfriend?
Recalling the scene where Zheng Zi'er stopped Gu Yunting to talk that night, was it true?
Ye Wan frowned, lowered her head, and continued reading.
Zheng Zi'er, seeing the expression on Ye Wan's face when she looked at her, finally had her vanity satisfied. She knew everyone had misunderstood her relationship with Gu Yunting. Gu Yunting had only told her to get lost that day. She had initially wanted to clarify, but then she suddenly didn't want to.
If she could spread rumors about being with Gu Yunting, she would benefit. Why would she clarify?
Proudly, she sat two seats away from Ye Wan. Zheng Zi'er smiled and looked at Ye Wan, "Ye Wan, you must have heard of Gu Yunting, right?"
Ye Wan glanced at her and nodded. Heard of him? She'd known him since she was seven.
However, Ye Wan now felt that Gu Yunting's taste was truly not good. Lin Feiwei was a bad woman, and this Zheng Zi'er didn't seem like a good person either.
"It's useless even if you've heard of him. People like you will never have any connection with him in this lifetime. You are destined to be two parallel lines!" Zheng Zi'er proudly raised her head, believing that only a wealthy young lady like her was worthy of standing beside an excellent man like Gu Yunting.
Ye Wan looked at this girl with inexplicable hostility towards her, who acted like a peacock with a condescending attitude. She simply found it amusing and ignored her.
Seeing that Ye Wan seemed indifferent, as if her punch had landed on cotton, Zheng Zi'er felt deeply uncomfortable. She deliberately said, "Indeed, I heard your family is very poor. How could you understand the world of the rich? Our world of the rich is a height that people like you can never reach!"
