From Nun to Real Heiress: Expert at Turning the Tables - Chapter 629
Chapter 629: 332 Make Preparations_3
So it turned out that Li Qingyao, Jiang Jinchen, and Charles Gao were acquainted with each other, and for a moment, the gazes of the four people kept shifting between the three of them.
Jiang Jinchen didn’t go in, standing under the eaves at the entrance of the library, looking at the rain curtain, seemingly lost in thought.
Li Qingyao exchanged a few pleasantries with Charles Gao, then went in with her roommates.
“Do you know Jiang Jinchen and Charles Gao? You guys seem to get along very well?” Her roommate couldn’t help but ask eagerly.
Li Qingyao said indifferently, “Junior high classmates.”
“Childhood sweethearts, huh.”
Li Qingyao shook her head, “Don’t make wild guesses, we are just classmates.”
She couldn’t get into Jiang Jinchen’s circle. Besides Charles Gao, this young master didn’t get close to anyone else.
“You have connections with them, which is much better than us. Now the campus beauty Hu Guo’er and the department beauty Lin Ya are both fighting for the campus hunk. In my opinion, they are only fit to carry your shoes. Why would they matter if you make a move?”
Li Qingyao couldn’t help but laugh and cry, “Don’t randomly spread rumors. Is there anything else in your heads besides gossip?”
“This is gossip about the campus hunk! How can it be the same as ordinary people’s gossip? People are betting on who will win the campus hunk in the school forum now. Hu Guo’er and Lin Ya are toads wanting to eat swan meat. It’d be weird if the campus hunk even looks at them, but just now, the campus hunk was looking at you.”
Li Qingyao didn’t know what to say about their thinking. College life was really too boring, which allowed them to have so much time and energy to waste on such boring matters.
“There, that’s Lin Ya. I heard she’s from a small town.” The roommate looked at a young girl walking over from the opposite side.
She was a tall, slender, and pretty girl with clear, transparent, and beautiful skin. She had a pure temperament and a fresh first love face. She became very popular on the internet and had a very high popularity in the school because of a bare-face photo when she first entered the school. If it weren’t for Hu Guo’er taking the spot, the title of campus beauty would have been hers.
Lin Ya was wearing a white down jacket, which made her look even more fair and beautiful. She walked into the study room with her companion.
——
A black car drove in the rain towards Jiangzhou University.
Outside the big auditorium, the Academic Affairs Director Lin Tao and others were waiting in place. Seeing a black car approaching, they hurriedly picked up their umbrellas and greeted it.
A young girl holding a transparent umbrella got out of the car. Dense raindrops hit the umbrella and splashed everywhere.
Her black trench coat accentuated her slender waist, with the hem of the moon-like skirt fluttering. A few eager droplets of rain settled on her wet skirt, like shining dewdrops under the moonlight.
“Ms. Ming Jing, you have finally arrived. Please come this way.” Lin Tao said respectfully.
“Thank you very much.” The girl’s gentle voice softened the cold wind and rain that greeted her face.
“Ms. Ming Jing, you are too polite. It is our honor to have you here.” Lin Tao flattered Ming Jing without a trace. Despite her young age, she held an important position, especially her influence among young people. Her presence today was a great honor for them.
Tao Xianxian held her umbrella and followed behind, but after only one step, her umbrella was snatched away.
Tao Xianxian was stunned, looked up, and saw Du Ze’s handsome but cold face.
“Let’s go, don’t keep the young lady waiting.”
Tao Xianxian pursed her lips and hurriedly followed. Du Ze’s pace always matched hers.
Entering the auditorium, Du Ze put away his umbrella. Tao Xianxian saw his right shoulder soaked with rain and handed him a tissue from her bag, “Wipe it.”
Du Ze didn’t take the tissue, put the umbrella in the umbrella rack by the door, flicked the water off his shoulder with his fingers, and followed Ming Jing with a few strides.
Tao Xianxian stuffed the tissue back into her bag and muttered, “Still the same bad temper.”
While waiting for the elevator, Lin Tao looked at Du Ze and Tao Xianxian with some hesitation and asked, “Are you the top student Du Ze from the business school?”
Du Ze nodded, “Hello, Director Lin, I am Du Ze.”
Lin Tao laughed and said, “It really is you, I thought you looked familiar. This is your girlfriend, I know. The two of you used to be the most famous couple in the business school, and the teachers are waiting to drink your wedding wine.”
Ming Jing raised her eyebrows and looked at Du Ze and Tao Xianxian.
Du Ze’s face remained expressionless, and his hand hanging by his side clenched slightly.
Tao Xianxian smiled awkwardly, “Director Lin, we already…”
“Thank you for remembering us, Director. The elevator is here; let’s go in.” Du Ze interrupted Tao Xianxian.
Tao Xianxian was stunned, subconsciously turned to look at Du Ze, and the man had already walked into the elevator with a blank face.
Lin Tao laughed and said to Ming Jing, “These two used to be our school’s movers and shakers. With their help, Ms. Ming Jing will have added strength.”
The outstanding talents of the Business School, especially Du Ze, could have been directly recommended for further study, but he resolutely chose to enter society and became Ming Jing’s driver and secretary. Back then, many people laughed at him, but now they couldn’t laugh anymore.
Du Ze was the smartest one, now the second-in-command of Zhu Group. When his classmates were struggling in big companies for experience, he had already risen to the ranks of management, a step up to the sky.
He was outstanding in ability, and all he needed was an opportunity. Now it seems that his vision was discerning, targeting potential stocks early on.
Ming Jing smiled and said, “I’m just enjoying the achievements of your school’s education.”
The elevator went straight to the seventh floor of the auditorium. Ming Jing and Lin Tao walked out, Tao Xianxian followed a step behind, and lowered her voice, “What do you mean?”
Du Ze said indifferently, “Better to do less rather than more. We are not the stars today.”
He then strode forward to catch up with Ming Jing.
Tao Xianxian’s heart pounded against her chest, but his calm, indifferent voice gradually calmed her down, like the bleak wind and bitter rain outside the window. The passion that had just risen was instantly extinguished.
The thousand-person auditorium was filled, and all one could see were black heads of people.
Even though Charles Gao and Jiang Jinchen were sitting in a corner, they were still the most eye-catching presence, with many girls around them frequently looking back and stealing glances.
At exactly ten o’clock, when Ming Jing appeared on stage, the whole place erupted in cheers.
The scene turned into a fan meeting, with cheers rising wave after wave.
Charles Gao laughed, “It’s really Ming Jing. I thought she wouldn’t appear in public for a while after the incident at the last press conference.”
Li Jun had a telescope since their position was too far back, and they couldn’t see their faces without one. This telescope was borrowed from the astronomy club.
“She truly is my goddess, her temperament is just perfect.”
Forget about Lin Ya, forget about Hu Guo’er, just go to hell.
