Meng Lin sighed as he watched the school gradually disappear into the distance. "I don't think we have to worry. This child looks very polite. She probably won't embarrass us."
Zhang Heng nodded. "She can be used to complete the engagement."
Meng Lin nodded. "A big family like the Yan family must be very concerned about their daughter-in-law's etiquette and upbringing. I tested it this morning and it seems pretty good."
The French breakfast this morning was not specifically for Qi Ying to eat something good, but a test.
There were many utensils used during a French breakfast, and every one of them was used differently. Those who were slightly less knowledgeable would become a laughing stock if they were not careful.
This morning, Qi Ying did not show any unfamiliarity at all. She was elegant and used every piece of cutlery correctly.
She sat upright, her slender fingers gently gripping the cutlery firmly. Her chewing was elegant and dignified. The school uniform of Baicheng University seemed to have become an elegant gown for a noble socialite from the Rococo era.
"It's best if she can marry over. That Yan Huai is in a vegetative state. Although he was the head of the Yan family previously, he probably won't live long. When the time comes, we can use this marriage to exchange for more benefits." Zhang Heng turned the steering wheel and looked ahead coldly.
Meng Lin sighed. "Yes, I really don't want Xiao Ning to marry him. Xiao Ning and Yan Bin are very close. If she marries that vegetable, how can she marry the person she likes?"
The Yan family they were talking about was the number one aristocratic family in Baicheng. Yan Huai was the youngest son of the Yan family, and Yan Bin was his nephew.
Both of them were highly regarded children of the Yan family. If they could marry these two, it would be equivalent to controlling half of the Yan family.
"When the time comes, let Qi Ying marry Yan Huai according to the engagement and let Xiao Ning marry Yan Bin. That way, our family's power will be even more stable."
Zhang Heng did not care about so-called love and liking. Now that the Zhang family's business had reached a bottleneck, it would be best if he could use his daughters in exchange for the company's further expansion.
"Then you'll have to arrange the engagement." He held his wife's hand.
Meng Lin nodded and a faint smile appeared on his face.
Zhang Ning led Qi Ying to the freshman registration office.
Along the way, Zhang Ning felt very uncomfortable.
She was originally an influential figure in the school. Wherever she went, there would always be some admirers stopping to look at her.
Zhang Ning was actually very good-looking. She had long black hair and was tall and slender. Although her exquisite facial features could not be considered bright and moving, she had a deliberately sweet face. It was obvious that she was the daughter of an aristocratic family.
In the past, there were ridiculous comments on the school forum that said, "It must be very stressful to be Zhang Ning's classmate. I have to be jealous of her beauty ten thousand times a day."
However, standing next to Qi Ying, she suddenly lost her charm.
Qi Ying was only wearing a simple shirt and skirt. Her hair was also ordinary and long, and her face did not have any makeup. However, her eyes were so bright and moving that everyone who saw her subconsciously stopped in their tracks.
This made Zhang Ning clench her fists in jealousy.
This sister was really a jinx. She had taken away her good luck.
She sent Qi Ying to the entrance of the registration office and found an excuse to leave.
Qi Ying looked at her back and sighed slightly, counting down in her heart.
54321…
When Qi Ying's fingers knocked on the fifth time, Zhang Ning, who was rushing upstairs with her head lowered, tripped over the steps and came into close contact with the ground. A pair of shoes appeared in front of her.
They were black boots studded with rivets. The owner of the boots had dyed bright red hair and wore studs and lip studs.
This was a strange person in their school who was not to be trifled with.
That person looked at Zhang Ning and sneered. "So even the school belle of the Economics Department can be so disheveled."
Zhang Ning frowned and stood up. She looked at the other party but did not dare to say anything.
This boy's family was quite powerful, and no one dared to provoke him in school.
Zhang Ning straightened her clothes and walked away quickly.
She was really unlucky today. It must be because of her strange sister.
She walked to the classroom. When the sleepy girls in the class saw her enter, they all invited her to sit down.
"Xiao Ning, I heard that your sister is back. Did you see her?"
