Zhang Qi's house was surrounded by villas, so it was very inconvenient to take public transportation. The nearest bus stop was quite far away. The students from K University had taken a taxi together and shared the fare.
Zhang Qi sighed in her heart and said, "Don't talk nonsense."
"What nonsense am I talking about?" The rich second generation followed her into the house and sneered, "You must be reluctant to spend money."
Zhang Qi was unhappy when she heard this and quickly walked in.
She had arranged a lot of activities for everyone to participate in games and win prizes. The atmosphere of the party was quite lively.
Zhang Qi turned around and suddenly saw Zhao Lanfen's figure at the entrance of the hall. He raised his chin at her. Zhang Qi understood and stood up. "I'm going to the washroom."
When she left the hall, Zhao Lanfen was already waiting for her in the living room.
"The one you like left?" Zhao Lanfen asked.
Zhang Qi lowered her head slightly and said, "Yes."
Zhao Lanfen's voice was firm as he pronounced the death sentence. "That one won't do! What kind of person do you like? I think his phone is the most valuable thing on his body, right? "
"But …" Zhang Qi tried to fight for herself. "Senior Yue's grades are very good and he's very capable …"
"So what?" Zhao Lanfen was disdainful. "I've seen many poor scholars. Is he still especially cold and arrogant to you? Is he not the least bit attracted by your family background? Not moved by your wealth at all? "
He wasn't arrogant, but he was really cold. Zhang Qi was speechless.
Zhao Lanfen looked at her and was even more disdainful. "This kind of poor guy is like this. He deliberately puts on a cold and aloof face to show that he's different. You're used to being flattered by others. When you meet someone like this who's good looking, you feel that he's special. Actually, in his heart, he can't wait to marry you immediately so that he can keep a fair, rich, and beautiful girl like you! "
"Let me tell you, in a family like ours, the most important thing is to be matched in terms of social status," Zhao Lanfen said, "Those freeloaders and prostitutes, get them out of here as far as they can. Look at Liang Yingying. Do you think your Senior Martial Brother is better than her? It was nothing more than a modified version of Liang Yingying. When you meet this kind of person, you have to put on airs. You're still young anyway, so it's not like you can't play around. You can give some money to have some fun. "
"But you have to be clear-headed. Don't let a man with a phoenix get married by giving birth to a child. If he dares to do that, I'll have his legs broken first. Then, I'll abort the child to stop him from thinking about it. You're dreaming if you want to trap our family with this. "
Zhang Qi's face turned slightly red. "Mom, what are you saying? Senior Brother Yue and I are just ordinary classmates. "
Zhao Lanfen snorted. "I'm just giving you a heads-up. You're not young anymore, so it's time for you to have some fun. I think that boy who drives a Maserati is not bad. I asked him, and his family owns Luo Ming Electronics. I just went upstairs to check. Back then, they started their business by making electrical wiring boards. They're not bad, and we can barely be considered a match …
Zhang Qi was slightly annoyed. "Mom — —"
"Okay, okay. It's your birthday today, so I won't nag you anymore. It's fine as long as you know what you're doing. "Zhao Lanfen emphasized." Besides, if you're serious, that plaid shirt won't do! Did you hear that? Don't be confused just because he's handsome! "
Zhang Qi gently bit her lip. After a while, she said, "I understand. I know what I'm doing. "
Zhao Lanfen nodded. "It's fine as long as you understand."
Zhao Lanfen went upstairs.
Zhang Qi was alone in the living room for a while.
However, when she thought about how handsome Yue Song looked, she couldn't even bear to call for a taxi. She imagined him squeezing into a bus, and indeed, his handsome looks seemed to have faded quite a bit.
Her mother would never allow her to keep a gigolo. She herself didn't like to live off a woman.
Thinking about this, she finally sighed and gave up.
She returned to the living room with a smile on her face. She seemed to have become much gentler towards the rich second generation who was chasing after her.
However, Zhao Lanfen, Zhang Qi and the rich second generation didn't know. Yue Song had indeed called for a taxi. He had called for his own family's car.
He walked a little further, to a place where the Zhang family couldn't see him directly, and stopped for a while. Soon, the black car stopped beside him.
The driver got out of the car and opened the door for him. "The chairman said that if you go back quickly, you can still make it in time for the afternoon meeting with the client group from America. I've put your clothes in the back seat. "
Yue Song nodded and sat in the car. Once the door was closed, he began to unbutton his shirt.
… …
The car drove to the Yue Clan's headquarters building, and the driver got out of the car to open the door.
He stepped out, and what he stepped on was no longer a pair of sports shoes, but a pair of shiny black leather shoes. His shirt was snow-white, and his suit was well-tailored. The million-dollar watch on his wrist reflected the sunlight and shone for a moment.
The handsome young man had deep eyes and an extraordinary temperament. This was the future successor that Chairman Yue had personally taught since he was young.
When Yue Song walked into the living room, the three receptionists immediately stood up and bowed slightly. "Mr. Yue."
Yue Song nodded.
Yue Song was still young, and hadn't officially taken up any position in the company. He also hadn't participated in too many social events. He studied in peace while learning different things from the Xue Clan and the Yue Clan.
Therefore, not many outsiders knew him, but everyone in the Yue Clan's headquarters building knew who he was.
He walked out of the chairman's private elevator and walked towards the meeting room. Along the way, many people greeted him respectfully.
"Mr. Yue."
"Good afternoon, Mr. Yue."
"Mr. Yue, the chairman is already waiting for you. The client has just arrived."
Yue Song's footsteps were sonorous as he took the folder from the secretary's hand. Without stopping, he said "thank you" and steadily walked forward. He pushed open the door of the meeting room and entered.
The tall and straight figure disappeared. The two young female employees who were in charge of the tea break outside exhaled a long breath and exclaimed, "So handsome!"
"A real-life version of your son!"
The secretary pursed her lips and laughed. "Don't even think about it. He's a few years younger than all of you, and he's still a university student."
The young female employees were shocked. "Sigh — —"
Zhang Yansheng had no idea what had happened on his cousin Zhang Qi's birthday. Because middle school students had their final exams later than university students, Zhang Qi Sheng was still struggling with her final revision!
She and Xu Lichen were not in the same class, so they didn't talk much in school. They only glanced at each other occasionally when they brushed past each other.
It wasn't that they were pretending to be estranged. It was just that they didn't need to chat every day to communicate their feelings.
Moreover, in school, they didn't have the time to chat across classes.
But at the end of the semester, she felt that she couldn't study alone, so she sent a message to Xu Lichen: "If you drop back to class eight, don't say that you know me."
Xu Lichen replied: "Don't look down on me!"
While Zhang Qi Sheng was studying hard, Xu Lichen wasn't having an easy time either.
Ever since he entered class five, Xu Lichen knew that he had fallen into a big trap. In this trap, he couldn't control himself!
From front to back, from left to right, from the class committee member to the top of the class, they were all studying at all times! If he wanted to find someone to talk to in class, he would be shushed by the people around him.
What was even more frightening was that humans were social animals and instinctively sought to assimilate. Therefore, when everyone else was studying but you weren't, Xu Lichen discovered that he would experience symptoms such as anxiety, shortness of breath, chest tightness, and other negative symptoms.
And these negative symptoms would automatically be cured as long as he opened his books and started doing practice questions!
Xu Lichen understood that this was coercion! He was being coerced by this class! He was being coerced by these "good kids"!
But he couldn't control himself! Understanding was one thing, but he couldn't not study!
He didn't have much time to play games anymore. His friends wanted to ask him to go out and sing karaoke or drink, but they couldn't do it anymore. In the eyes of his old friends, it was as if he had been reborn as a completely different person.
He simply couldn't speak of his suffering.
Xu Lichen fiercely thought, "I have to return to class eight no matter what", but he also bitterly studied so that he wouldn't be despised by Zhang Qi Sheng.
When the final exam was finally over, he directly collapsed on his desk!
The top student in front of him turned his head and pushed up his glasses: "Are you done? You don't have time to do practice questions, right? "
Xu Lichen had received a lot of help from this bespectacled bro this semester and they were already close friends.
As if he had shed a layer of skin, he struggled and fiercely grabbed the bespectacled bro's neck: "I'm done, I'm done! I'm done, so don't ask anymore! I'll forget everything after the exam! I just want to go surfing in Hawaii! Diving in the Maldives! Skiing in the Alps! "
"Go, go, go! I'll let you go!" The bespectacled bro frantically tried to break free of his grip, "Let go of me, I'm going to die!"
The students laughed loudly and threw away the heavy pressure of studying. They all discussed where to go after the exam, what to do, and what to eat.
This semester had finally passed.
There were still more than 700 days until the college entrance exam, but they could relax a little during the summer break.
After two days, the results of each subject and the grade rankings were released, and there were regular changes in the personnel of each class. Some were promoted, and some were dropped.
Zhang Qi Sheng looked at herself first. Under the guidance of two excellent teachers, her math and physics were no longer dragging her down, and her grades had improved greatly. She was already above average in the class.
The money was not wasted, and the time and effort was not wasted.
Then she looked at Xu Lichen … Hm? His overall ranking had improved?
Sure enough, people live when trees move! Since he jumped out of class eight, he couldn't possibly be as stupid as he used to be, right?
The corners of Zhang Qi Sheng's mouth curled up.
After looking through the list, he continued to look up. Soon, he found the future top scorer in the list.
He really didn't show off, and he had never "advanced by leaps and bounds," but he had passed exam after exam, moving up step by step, and his ranking was getting higher and higher.
He was so steady that it made her feel at ease!
After all the miscellaneous matters were taken care of, it was time for the holidays.
Xu Lichen asked Zhang Qi Sheng if she wanted to go with him. Even though they were friends, there was no need to create a situation where a man and woman were alone. Besides, she had nothing but money in her previous life, and she had visited almost all the places worth visiting in the world.
Zhang Qi Sheng refused.
On the other hand, Zhang Huan gave the printed itinerary to Liang Yingying, "I've already arranged everything for you. You can take Hehe to Shuoshu and have fun. If there's anything, just call my secretary and he'll take care of it for you. I'll leave Auntie Wang and Little Zhou to you. Take good care of the children. "
Zhang Huan was very pleased that his little wife could finally act like a mother.
"Daddy, you're not coming with us again?" Zhang Heling asked, a little disappointed.
"Daddy has a lot of projects on hand, so I'm very busy." Zhang Huan smiled and rubbed her head, "Be good, and take good care of your brother. If he's not obedient, call your sister. "
Liang Yingying's face looked as if she had eaten feces.
