Although Jiang Jianian waited until Ye Zhiwei got up before leaving, he would soon have to appear again. He didn't even have time to prepare breakfast for Ye Zhiwei. It was only after Ye Zhiwei urged Jiang Jianian that he didn't need to prepare these things for her every day if he really had something to do that he reluctantly left the kitchen.

My phone has vibrated for who knows how many times.

He was really busy. Although she didn't know exactly what he was busy with, Ye Zhiwei didn't want to become a burden to Jiang Jianian. Without Jiang Jianian, she started to take good care of herself and sometimes even ate in the cafeteria with her classmate who was a fan of hers.

Compared to takeout food that is mediocre, expensive, and not clean, Yenching University's canteens offer much better taste and prices.

However, every time Ye Zhiwei came to the cafeteria, the little fan girl's eyes would become very subtle, and she would even rush to pay the bill. When Ye Zhiwei was puzzled, the little fan girl touched Ye Zhiwei's shoulder and asked heavily, "Rich lady, have you gone bankrupt? You... have actually fallen so low as to eat in the cafeteria with me? Shouldn't a rich young lady like you be unable to get used to eating in this kind of ordinary people's cafeteria?"

Ye Zhiwei: ...

Ye Zhiwei's silence was interpreted as tacit agreement by her little fan.

The young fan looked at the rich woman who had fallen so low as to eat in the cafeteria with her with pity, and felt even more sorry for her. In order to appease Ye Zhiwei, she made an important decision.

Ye Zhiwei drank milk, swiped her card; Ye Zhiwei prepared some fruit after the meal, swiped her card again; and finally, Ye Zhiwei even planned to take some snacks with her. The little fangirl felt that this was already an unbearable burden, and said in despair, "Rich sister, although I really want to help you and let you transition from heaven to earth, your one day is almost a month's living expenses for me."

Ye Zhiwei chuckled and said, "Sigh, but I really want to eat snacks. Does that mean a poor girl who's gone bankrupt doesn't deserve to eat snacks?"

After a half-hearted wail, the little fangirl looked at Ye Zhiwei's shopping cart, which was full of expensive items, and with a determined heart, said in a very spoiled manner, "Buy!"

Then I heard a beep, and my heart felt like it was bleeding.

After inserting the straw, Ye Zhiwei started drinking her milk, asking as she drank, "Why do you look so lifeless?"

"Rich lady, are you really bankrupt? How can you still be so extravagant even after going bankrupt? We need to learn how to get through a month of poverty, instead of being so wasteful."

How much did I cost you?

The young fan said with heartache, "It's one thing to spend a hundred or two hundred on food, fruit, and milk, but why are your snacks so expensive, sister? They've cost you almost eight hundred in total. If I'm a little more frugal, my monthly food expenses are only a little over a thousand."

Ye Zhiwei practically drained the money her female fans had spent on campus card top-ups, and they ended up having to pay by phone at the school supermarket.

Ye Zhiwei smiled and said to her little fangirl, "Give me your campus card."

After receiving the campus card from the fangirl, just as the fangirl thought Ye Zhiwei was about to buy something else, she went straight to the automatic recharge machine. After a series of transactions with her campus card and bank card, the fangirl's phone, which was linked to the campus card, received a text message notification: "Dear student XXX, you have recharged 8000.00 yuan on your campus E-card. Recharge time: X month X day, X hour X minute."

The little fan stared wide-eyed in disbelief.

"First, it seems I'm not bankrupt yet, so I can't be a bankrupt heiress. Second, if my family really goes bankrupt, but the company is a limited liability company and the Ye family's initial investment was in full, then bankruptcy would simply mean the company is gone. But even if the company is gone, my family seems to own quite a few villas, seaside villas? My brother seems to have given me several limited-edition sports cars? Each car is worth tens of millions, I think, I forget the exact amount. Anyway, my cousin really likes sports cars, but he's fickle and often buys one and then gets a new one—oh right, and my dad seems to have invested in some promising new technology industries in my name. I haven't counted them carefully, but I heard that one listed company is doing very well, and the initial investment of several million has multiplied several times—"

The little fangirl's eyes widened, and she grabbed Ye Zhiwei's arm, refusing to let go. She cried and pleaded, "Rich lady, please, really, take me in! I'll do anything you ask, even be cute and sleep with you! I'll do anything you want, waaaaah!"

The young fangirl clenched her fist secretly and redefined her life goal: from now on, her goal was to be taken care of by a rich woman like Ye Zhiwei. That would be so blissful, it would be better than being a living god!

The two joked and laughed all the way, never expecting to run into Lin Yutong on their way to the west gate of such a big school.

Lin Yutong also noticed Ye Zhiwei. She had lost face in front of Ye Zhiwei before, but something good had happened to her recently. Lin Yutong's face was radiant, full of spring-like joy. Seeing Ye Zhiwei, she couldn't hide the smugness in her eyes. She said to Ye Zhiwei with a half-smile, "Hasn't Jia Nian been with you lately? Why are you out shopping with a girl now? I remember last time you were clearly chatting and laughing with Jia Nian—"

Ye Zhiwei originally planned to just ignore Lin Yutong and walk away when she ran into her, not wanting to talk to Lin Yutong much. Unexpectedly, she and her little fangirl hadn't gone far when Lin Yutong took the initiative to stop Ye Zhiwei.

Ye Zhiwei frowned and said, "This has nothing to do with you, does it?"

"I'm just curious," Lin Yutong said with a smile. "Don't laugh at me, but I really do like Jiang Jianian. I was interested in him the moment he showed up at school. He fits my aesthetic and requirements for a boyfriend, so I started to pursue him. The confession wall is full of my work. I even asked a friend to find out that he didn't have a girlfriend. Although I don't know what's going on between you two, the fact that Jiang Jianian has basically never been around you these past few days, and that you can only eat with this girl, shows that your relationship isn't that great, right?"

Ye Zhiwei said expressionlessly, "You seem to pay close attention to my activities. You seem to know who I'm with and what I'm doing."

"It's not exactly paying attention, but my friends all know I like Jiang Jianian. I bumped into you two shopping together before, and I was afraid you were really a couple, so I told my friends. They offered to keep an eye out for me, but I don't know how to refuse people..." Lin Yutong's words were sarcastic, as if she was deliberately trying to annoy people.

Ye Zhiwei frowned and sneered inwardly, while the little fangirl next to her was stunned. She knew that Lin Yutong liked Jiang Jianian and dominated the school's confession wall, but she really didn't expect that Ye Zhiwei and Jiang Jianian actually knew each other. She remembered that she had encouraged Ye Zhiwei to pursue Jiang Jianian because the two of them looked very compatible.

Is this what they mean by "I thought I was shipping a really obscure couple, but they actually are"?

The young fan was shocked, but she immediately prepared herself to help Ye Zhiwei confront Lin Yutong, the notoriously psychologically unstable actress from the performing arts department. However, before she could even speak, Ye Zhiwei said expressionlessly, "I thought any girl with a shred of self-respect should have reflected on whether she went too far and annoyed people after being rejected like that last time, instead of continuing to shamelessly pester you like you. Your behavior is almost sexual harassment, isn't it?"
