Chapter 36 - Jealousy

Ying Zenan happened to see Wen Fucheng's post and immediately gave him a thumbs up.

And send a message below.

[Ying Zenan: CEO Wen, remember to inform me soon when you have sealed the deal. You must give me a big red packet.]

Wen Fucheng quickly replied.

[Wen Fusheng: Don't worry, I will not fail to inform you.]

After putting away his phone, Ying Zenan looked smug.

"I don't think this Wen Fucheng is like what the rumors claim in the industry! He's quite a good person." Although Ying Zenan still felt Wen Fucheng was still a little inferior to himself when it came to excellence.

The assistant was tired. Ying Zenan's remark brought back memories of his boss spreading the said the rumors back then.

After Ying Zenan clicked 'like', he turned off his phone and didn't notice the familiar plate, table, and decorations in Wen Fucheng's photo.

Ying Jing still didn't know about the exchange between Wen Fusheng and Ying Zenan.

She went to school because she was going to give a speech at the opening ceremony next semester as one of the top student representatives.

She was early for rehearsal and saw Zhao Qingran, who was also going on stage as an outstanding student representative.

Zhao Qingran took the initiative to greet her.

"You're here for the rehearsal."

The news that Ying Jing was going to give a speech had long been released. There were more than a thousand comments on the university's forum page.

Many people in the lecture hall were coming for her.

"Yes. I heard you moved to school. Is there anything you're not used to?"

"The students are very close. There's nothing I'm not used to at the moment."

"That's good."

Ying Jing thought that after she moved out, Zhao Qingran, a girl, would be too embarrassed to live with a man like Ying Zenan. Even though there was an auntie at home, Ying Jing still felt that she was being inconsiderate. She had wanted to go back for a night every other day.

Unexpectedly, when she called back the next day, the auntie said that Zhao Qingran had already moved to the campus.

Ying Jing didn't have her contact information, so she didn't expect to meet her here.

Zhao Qingran and Ying Jing exchanged a few words, drawing the attention of other students.

When Zhao Qingran returned to the crowd, many people surrounded her.

"Zhao Qingran, you actually know Ying Jing?"

"She just spoke to you for quite a while."

"She even smiled at you. God! She looks so beautiful when she smiles."

"She's so fair in person. She looks even better in person. I'm so envious."

"Zhao Qingran, what's your relationship with Ying Jing? Do you have her contact information?"

… .

Zhao Qingran was not bad-looking either. Her grades had been outstanding since she was young, and she was the obedient child that her parents and teachers spoke of. Even if she got into Hucheng University, she would not receive as much attention as she did now.

Just because Ying Jing had spoken to her, many people came to pay attention to her.

Ying Jing sat in the front row of the audience. It was a little early, so it was not her turn yet.

She knew the script by heart even at home.

Fortunately, the Student Union had prepared milk tea in advance, and Ying Jing also got a cup.

She was slurping contentedly when her classmate came to sit beside her.

"It's really hot outside. Baby Jing, where did you get the milk tea?"

"From the chairman. There should be some by the stage if you want."

"You're so lucky. The chairman personally brought you milk tea." His friend resigned himself to fate and got up to get a cup. He also brought two fans to share with Ying Jing.

After a while, the heat on her body was blown away.

She placed the fan next to her, cradling the milk tea as she concentrated on the rehearsal in the stands.

Until his arm was touched by his good friend, Jin Qingqing.

The lights were a little dim. She leaned towards Qingqing and lowered her voice. "What's wrong?"

"Have you heard? Lu Zishu is coming later."

"Yep."

"That's normal! We're all from the same school." Lu Zishu was also a top student and a member of the student council. It was normal for him to come here.

Ying Jing had no intention of avoiding him for the rest of her life. But she forgot that in everyone's eyes, she was still the same person who chased after Lu Zishu crazily.

"You still don't know Lu Zishu's identity? The forum posts have gone viral. It's about as popular as your post."

That popular post of hers?

What trending topic did she have?

Ying Jing was not a fan of the university forum, so she got a lot of information from the people around her.

News about Lu Zishu had already been broadcasted on television. It was only a matter of time before everyone knew about it.

But what did it have to do with her?

"I have nothing to do with him now."

Ying Jing tried her best to clear up the matter between her and Lu Zishu. After all, she had caused a huge commotion previously. Before she could clear things up, everyone started gossiping again.

It seemed that her pursuit of Lu Zishu back then had left a deep impression on everyone. Some people even bet on whether Ying Jing could successfully woo Lu Zishu.

If it weren't for the fact that these students couldn't fork out too much money, Ying Jing would have bet a million dollars that she didn't like Lu Zishu.

"Yes, yes, yes. You don't have anything to do with him. Don't tell me you've moved on to someone else after a vacation."

And you bloody guessed it right.

Exactly.

"I'll show him to you when I'm free. He's the best in the world. He's thousands of times better than Lu Zishu."

Ying Jing kept talking and did not notice his friend's expression change.

"Um… Lu Zishu is behind you."

"That won't change even if he's in front of me."

After saying that, she turned around and really saw Lu Zishu standing behind her with a faint gaze.

Ying Jing was not to be outdone.

After all, she was telling the truth. She didn't believe he'd dare hit her.

Lu Zishu looked at her silently. He placed a cup of milk tea in the space beside her and turned to leave with a dark expression.

This time, not only was Ying Jing dumbfounded, but the onlookers were also confused.

What goes around comes around!

Lu Zishu actually gave Ying Jing milk tea.

There was a murmur and quiet discussion.

At this moment, the chairman ran over and said, "Lu Zishu especially got someone to buy these. He was afraid that everyone would be tired from rehearsing. He also specially instructed me to buy them for you. Look, I forgot about them when I was busy just now. Come, come, change."

After saying that, he picked up the cup of milk tea without pearls that Lu Zishu had given him and handed it to Ying Jing.

The milk tea in Ying Jing's hand instantly lost its fragrance. She wouldn't have drunk it even if there was a knife at her throat.

"Is milk tea without pearls still called pearl milk tea? Let him drink it himself!"

Her friend came to the rescue.

"She's had such a big drink, I haven't even opened my mouth on this one. Wouldn't mind another, give it to me!"

Jin Qingqing looked at her helplessly.

"What's wrong with you? You actually rejected Lu Zishu."

"Can't I refuse him?"

"Of course, that's not what I meant. I mean … don't you dream about him looking back at you?"

"You said it was a dream. Now that I'm awake, I can't."

It just felt like something was wrong.
