Jiujiu took a sip of milk tea. It was sweet but not greasy. It was worth the price.
She scooped a spoonful of milk pudding into her mouth. As she chewed, she looked at Li Jiuge, who was conversing with Xu Dongchen in English. She pretended not to understand and asked, "Sister, what are you talking about with Xu Dongchen?"
Li Jiuge explained to Xu Dongchen in English about the recent stock market. "I'm talking to Xu Dongchen about studying. It's boring, so I don't think you're interested."
He was talking about the stock market, but he was telling her that he was talking about studying. He was bullying her because she didn't understand English.
Li Jiuge's words made it seem as if she had shared a secret with Xu Dongchen. Xu Dongchen couldn't help but steal a few more glances at her. The two of them winked at each other in tacit understanding.
Jiujiu looked in Xu Dongchen's direction and tilted her head. She smiled and asked, "I see. I'm not interested. However, a few days ago, I heard from my father that the stock market has been in turmoil recently. He wants to invest a sum of money. Can Xu Dongchen teach me?"
A second ago, Li Jiuge was discussing the stock market with Xu Dongchen. The next second, Jiujiu was asking about the stock market. Li Jiuge was shocked. Could Li Jiujiu have heard what she had just said?
However, Li Jiuge immediately denied this thought.
If Li Jiujiu could understand what she had said, she wouldn't have brushed it off so casually. It must have been a coincidence.
Xu Dongchen had wanted to cultivate his relationship with Jiujiu. When he saw that Jiujiu was interested in the stock market, he immediately smiled and struck up a conversation with her. He even took the initiative to ask which stock Jiujiu was interested in and if he could give her some advice.
What had originally been a small secret between Li Jiuge and Xu Dongchen instantly became a matter of public discussion.
Jiujiu glanced at the livid Li Jiuge. She spread her hands and said indifferently, "No, I'm not interested in stocks."
Xu Dongchen, who had wanted to have a deeper conversation with Jiujiu, could not say a word.
Li Jiuge was furious that Jiujiu had ruined her plan. She couldn't help but say, "Jiujiu, you're going to inherit the Li family business in the future. You don't care about the small amount of money in the stock market.
Li Jiuge's words... Jiujiu, but she didn't expect Jiu. and even shamelessly said, "Jiuge is right. I will inherit the Li family business in the future. how can I only focus on the stock market?"
Jiujiu nodded and continued eating the pudding in front of her.
Li Jiuge was first shocked by Jiujiu's shameless boasting. When he saw the admiration in Xu Dongchen's eyes turn to shock, he couldn't help but smile.
Since she liked to talk nonsense, she would let her talk nonsense until Xu Dongchen completely lost interest.
After eating dessert, the three of them went out for a walk. Xu Dongchen took the initiative to send Jiujiu and Li Jiuge back.
After returning home, Jiujiu went upstairs and invested all the money that Meng Ting and Li Chen had given her into a stock that she liked. She was ready to make a big profit. Then, she began to read Xu Dongchen's information.
Since she wanted to win Xu Dongchen over, she naturally had to know him. As for Li Jiuge, her thoughts were written all over her face. Jiujiu couldn't be bothered to understand her.
After sending Jiujiu and Li Jiuge off, Xu Dongchen didn't go straight home. Instead, he went to the company.
When he saw Xu Dongchen, Xu Jin waved his hand and motioned for his secretary to leave. He asked, "How did you play with your Uncle Li's daughter today?"
Xu Dongchen took off his jacket and sat opposite Xu Jin. He repeated what had happened that afternoon.
Hearing Li Jiuge's little movements, Xu Jin held a string of prayer beads in his left hand and slowly turned it. After a while, his eyes moved slowly in their sockets. He chuckled and said, "Old Li's daughter is interesting."
Xu Dongchen felt that Jiujiu didn't understand what he said to Li Jiuge, but Xu Jin didn't think so.
If she didn't understand, she would have talked about the stock market for no reason. However, he was a little dissatisfied with the adopted daughter of the Li family.
The Li family and the Xu family were obviously trying to matchmake Xu Dongchen and Li Jiujiu. There was no reason that Li Jiuge didn't know. She knew, but she still came over. It was obvious that she did it on purpose.
Xu Jin had seen too many women like her.
Xu Jin lowered his eyes to hide the disgust in his eyes and ordered, "Continue to date Jiujiu. As for Li Jiuge, if she wants to go out with you next time, find a reason to reject her, understand?"
Although Xu Dongchen didn't think that there was a problem with Li Jiuge following them, he nodded when he saw that his father didn't want her to follow them.
Soon, it was November.
Although Li Chen and Meng Ting didn't have any opinions about whether Jiujiu had a degree or not, no matter what they did now, it depended on this. If they wanted to hand the company over to Jiujiu, they couldn't convince the public without some real talent.
Therefore, Li Chen arranged for Jiujiu to go to the business school of University A, where Li Jiuge was currently studying.
Li Chen and Meng Ting personally sent Jiujiu to the door of the class. After watching Jiujiu find a place to sit down with her textbook, they left the teaching building and walked towards the teacher's office.
The dean had been waiting in the office for a long time.
Although he didn't like Jiujiu very much, on account of Li Chen and Meng Ting's donation of 50 million yuan, he would definitely let Li Jiujiu graduate with honors even if she slept and fought in school every day.
After discussing with the dean, Li Chen and Meng Ting left with peace of mind.
As soon as Jiujiu sat down, she heard the other people in the classroom talking.
It was a bit of a stretch to say that they were talking because these people were almost shouting directly in her ear.
"This is the young lady from the Li family. I didn't expect her to come to our business school."
"She stayed on the mountain for 17 years. She didn't even go through nine years of compulsory education and directly came to the business school as a transfer student. She has money. Awesome!"
"Poor Senior Li. She became her stepping stone as soon as she came back. Did you hear that at the banquet last time …"
Originally, Jiujiu didn't want to pay attention to these gossip. However, seeing that these people were about to talk about Li Chen and Meng Ting, Jiujiu couldn't help but stand up and turn to the person who was whispering at the same table. "Can you speak louder? I also want to know how Li Jiuge became my stepping stone. "
Although they were all talking bad about Jiujiu, they were caught by Jiujiu and asked directly. The other person's expression was a little ugly. He smiled awkwardly and waved his hand. "No, no …"
"No?" Jiujiu raised her eyebrows. "Why did I just hear you say that Li Jiuge was very pitiful? She became my stepping stone as soon as I came back?"
The classmate who said this was five seats away from Jiujiu. He didn't expect Jiujiu to hear so clearly. His face instantly turned red.
The other people who were gossiping about Jiujiu saw that Jiujiu's ears were so sharp. They instantly closed their mouths and didn't say a word.
After dealing with everyone, Jiujiu turned around and continued to read the textbook in her hand.
