87 Sir Jue Is Scared
“I don’t think it means anything.” Qiao Qiao shrugged. “The school has been inviting him to lecture. It’s just that he hasn’t agreed before.”
“That’s right. He never agreed, but now he has.” Le Yao heaved a sigh of relief. “Don’t tell me he went bankrupt and got a second profession to earn money.”
“Hehe, that’s impossible.” Qiao Qiao shook her head. “Old Qiao said that Nangong Jue is a money-sucking beast. He’s especially good at making money. If the Nangong family doesn’t treat him well, they’ll definitely regret it one day. Therefore, even if the Nangong Corporation goes bankrupt, he won’t go bankrupt.”
Le Yao was depressed. Was he hiding from her? But that couldn’t be. If he was hiding from her, he wouldn’t have agreed to come to class…
“Alright, stop dwelling on it. If you continue, your head will go bald.” Qiao Qiao patted Le Yao’s shoulder. “Since he’s not here to take revenge on you, isn’t that just nice?”
Le Yao nodded. Indeed, it would be best if they had nothing to do with each other, but her 100 million… This was almost becoming her obsession. If she couldn’t get it, she felt like she was going to be depressed.
“I think that the most important thing right now is for you to hurry back and make a cake to bribe Old Man Ma. Perhaps he will be merciful and approve your graduation certificate.”
“That makes sense.” Le Yao nodded. “Then let’s go.”
In the end, just as the two of them arrived at the school gate, Qian Meiqi sent a message to @ them in the group chat, asking where they were.
“We’re preparing to go home. There’s no class after this,” Le Yao replied.
“Alright then. Poor me. I can only go back to the dormitory.” Qian Meiqi sighed.
“Didn’t you confess to Sir Jue? You didn’t succeed?” Qiao Qiao couldn’t help but ask.
“Don’t mention it. Hundreds of girls rushed up. I couldn’t even squeeze in. When I squeezed in, I didn’t know where Sir Jue went.” Qian Meiqi’s tone was filled with regret. “Forget it. There will always be a chance.”
“Is everyone blind?” Le Yao couldn’t help but shake her head. “That bastard just looks handsome. He’s also rich and capable. What else does he have?”
“Isn’t that what women look for when they look for a man? It’s better than those who are ugly, incapable, and poor, right? Don’t tell me that you weren’t in love with his face previously? If that face was pockmarked, would you still love him to death?”
“You’re right. It’s just that there are so many rich, capable, and good-looking people around me now. Why do I have to revolve around that bastard?” Could this be the aura of the male lead?
“Whether it’s good or not, you have to try before you know. Just like how you…”
“Qiao, if you don’t mention my past, we can still be good friends.”
“Okay, let’s not talk about it anymore.” Qiao Qiao hurriedly raised her hand. “Let’s go, good friend.”
Nangong Jue had been sitting in the car the entire time. As he watched Le Yao and Qiao Qiao leave, he felt a little upset. There was actually a day when he, Nangong Jue, would hide from others. This feeling was really… uncomfortable.
Actually, he didn’t want to hide, but when Hao Kai sent him a message saying that the woman was waiting for him outside and wanted to drag him to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get a divorce certificate, he suddenly chickened out. Then, he asked the girls to cover for him and slipped away.
“Young Madam has already left,” Fang Ming reminded.
“Let’s go.” Nangong Jue pinched his eyebrows.
