Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Hearing what Qi Xiaoxiao said, boys and girls all gasped.
“Whoa… Qi Xiaoxiao, your boyfriend’s family is so well off? Having a net worth of tens of millions!” a girl told Qin Xiaoxiao with glittery eyes.
Another guy spoke up after her, “Qi Xiaoxiao’s status is different now. She’s the future madam of Sheng Yuan Company! The whole company will belong to her in the future eh!”
A wave of “oh” resonated in the room with what the guy said.
Qi Xiaoxiao grew even smugger at that.
The guy then continued to say, “Hey, Qi Xiaoxiao, don’t forget us when you’re rich and successful in the future yeah!”
The reminder attracted everyone’s clamor.
While Yun Jian’s identity as a member of the Advanced Special Forces was shocking, the students preferred to pander to Qi Xiaoxiao in comparison, knowing that the latter could possibly end up as the future madam of Sheng Yuan Company. That was because Qi Xiaoxiao would become rich!
People were realistic. Honor was unworthy of a mention in the face of profit.
Qi Xiaoxiao picked up a cup of tea and drank it like a wealthy mistress while everyone else showered her with praises and admiration.
Yun Jian was not affected by that kind of atmosphere as she sat chatting with Chen Xinyi, Zhang Shaofeng and Ling Yichen at the corner of the dining table.
“Master, you’ll be studying out of the city when you go to the military school. You’ve got to come back and visit us!” Zhang Shaofeng spoke up longingly.
They were friends for almost a year now. It was not something to be forgotten so easily.
“Yeah, Jianjian, we’re going to Longmen City’s senior high school while you’re going to be away to attend senior high elsewhere. You have to make sure to come back and visit us when you’re free!” Chen Xinyi said gripping Yun Jian’s hands.
“Yes, that’s right. There’s me too. I’ve gotten into the same senior high with Shaofeng and Xinyi!” Ling Yichen butted in swiftly.
Taking in the anticipating gazes from the three of them, Yun Jian nodded with a smile. “Mn, I will.”
Come to think of it, the first friends she made since she left Xinjiang Town and came to Longmen City were Zhang Shaofeng and Chen Xinyi; she even knew Ling Yichen shortly after that. To this day, three of them had remained by her side.
Despite that, Yun Jian knew that all good things must come to an end—just like Lu Feiyan back then. If they were fated to meet, they would be bound to meet.
One must go on with their life on their own. No one could be there along the way until the end because everyone’s longevity and experience were different. No one could be sure of anything.
“My boyfriend’s here!” It was during then Qi Xiaoxiao who sat at the table next to Yun Jian’s suddenly looked at the door in excitement and got up to run over.
To Qi Xiaoxiao, she managed to change all because of her boyfriend. She had also grown much more confident now that she had a boyfriend.
Back when she was in school, she was ugly and did not know how to dress herself up. Having left school now, she had learned how to dress up and doll herself up.
Now, she could even boldly and “humbly” disclose the net worth of her boyfriend’s family then get people around her to exclaim. Such satisfaction pleased Qi Xiaoxiao.
Yun Jian did not look up but her three other friends looked toward the door, seeing a man in his early twenties who wore a pair of distressed pants and stood at the door in self-assumed coolness.
One glance was enough to tell that it was how a typical delinquent would dress.
Qi Xiaoxiao dashed to him to hold his arm and showed off to everyone else, “This is my boyfriend, Lin Zihang… He’ll be footing the bill of all the expenses for this gathering today!”
