Only You See Me as Verdant Mountains

The world treats me like a blade of grass, only you see me as verdant mountains!

Her lonely helplessness, only he felt pity for her; his confusion and hesitation, only she understood him. Eve...

Chapter 384 Two Parallel Lines

(389)

Therefore, even in her junior year, Ye Wenyu continued to work tirelessly, spinning like a top, constantly moving between various jobs. Fortunately, the foreign trade company and the bookstore were satisfied with her performance over the past year and planned to continue employing her. Thus, she continued to work for a high salary of over ten thousand yuan a month. With the money she earned from part-time jobs, coupled with her frugal lifestyle and self-study of investment and financial management, her money began to grow exponentially, like a snowball. By her junior year, she had nearly 150,000 yuan in savings!

This is a huge sum of money that I never expected!

Every time Ye Wenyu thought about her little stash of money, she would smile, feeling sweet and warm inside, like snuggling up to a warm fire on a snowy winter night. That sense of security and peace that seeped into her bones was indescribable. She felt much more at ease and composed about her future life.

It's wisest to rely on yourself! Now, she has the courage to live well on her own, so she will never again be as helpless and lost as her mother was when she first remarried, with nothing to do but cry.

Thinking back to the time her mother told her to sell the house and remarry, all she remembers is feeling like an ant thrown into a flood, struggling desperately, barely surviving.

A person who is diligent and frugal, loves reading, respects and loves themselves, knows how to invest and manage money, and is good at learning and improving their skills, unlike those brainless girls who keep buying and buying as soon as they have a little money, will definitely have a better and better life!

Ye Wenyu began to feel confident about the future.

At this moment, she is like an experienced helmsman, sailing a ship on the sea, full of calm and composure about her life.

She learned from her classmates that Cai Wenchuan had returned to China. Moreover, because he had completed his postdoctoral studies very well without any delays, he had received high praise from a group of professors in Germany. As a result, he returned to Q University and was promoted to professor smoothly. His life seemed to be going smoothly, and he was probably the youngest professor at Q University now.

However, Ye Wenyu didn't see him on campus. She didn't know if he was too busy or if he was intentionally avoiding her. Because she had once loved him, she wished him well and hoped he was doing well.

Time flies. My roommates are busy signing up for Cai Wenchuan's elective courses for the new semester of their junior year. Just like before, they keep signing up for his courses just to catch a glimpse of the campus heartthrob professor. This is a world that judges by appearances. No matter who you are or when, seeing a handsome person will make you happy from the bottom of your heart.

Ye Wenyu understands the phenomenon of "appearance equals productivity," but she will no longer participate in it.

Because she has experienced many hardships and matured, her roommates seem as childish as kindergarteners to her.

So from another perspective, a person grows faster after experiencing hardships. That's a good thing.

One of the roommates, resting his chubby cheeks on his hand, announced to the other roommates with a smile, "Seeing Professor Cai makes me happy. Nothing makes me happier than seeing Professor Cai's beautiful face!"

Ye Wenyu listened from the side, a helpless bitter smile appearing on her lips. She thought of Cai Wenchuan and his inescapable inner demons. He was Lin Tingyue's slave. Being a slave to emotions is even more terrifying than being a slave to life!

Now, more than half a year has passed. I wonder if he has overcome his inner demons? Is he doing any better? Life is like shoes; only you know if they fit.

There's a saying: "I don't know how many snowflakes will fall in a person's lifetime, but everyone experiences a winter in their life!"

Life is like water; only you know whether it's hot or cold.

Ye Wenyu pondered, remaining silent.

"Wenyu, we've all signed up for Professor Cai's elective course, aren't you going to sign up too?" A girl-crazy roommate came over and kindly reminded Ye Wenyu.

Ye Wenyu is no longer the naive girl she was in her freshman year who forced herself to get along with her roommates. Now, after two years of growth, she has become a smart girl with clear life goals. She has her own opinions and principles, so she smiled slightly and said to her roommates, "No, I still have to work to earn my living expenses."

Her roommate glanced at her and chuckled softly, "Little money-grubber!"

Ye Wenyu has learned to be humble, low-key, and avoid attracting attention, and has also learned to play the victim.

After spending a long time with her classmates, she realized that instead of trying to get along with her roommates, it was better to play the victim in front of them. If a person knows how to be humble and low-key, learns to hide their strengths, and occasionally plays the victim, they will have fewer enemies. Her life was already difficult enough; she couldn't afford to make any more enemies and add more obstacles to her life.

Therefore, despite her beauty, she usually avoids wearing makeup and buying new clothes, opting instead for loose, comfortable, and casual attire. Sometimes, without close inspection, she resembles a young boy. Her originally full breasts are often hidden under a loose T-shirt, leading many men to remark, "I can't afford a pair of A cups."

So by her junior year, not a single male student from Q University was pursuing her.

In college, it's a sad thing for a girl not to have any boys pursuing her.

It's as lonely as snow.

As for her other roommates, they had suitors who could form a platoon. Because no one was pursuing her, she gradually stopped being the object of their collective rejection.

So what if she no longer has that ugly birthmark on her face? No one's still after her! She's just a lonely, unclaimed wallflower! So people stopped being hostile towards her!

In addition, her family was poor, and she had been receiving a poverty subsidy for two years. She was also very frugal and simple, always working hard and saving every penny. She was practically the most pitiful student at Q University, so everyone was much more tolerant of her and could get along with her peacefully.

This was something Ye Wenyu in his previous life never expected.

In her previous life, her relationship with her roommates ended in a complete falling out, ultimately resulting in her moving out of the dorm. In this life, she lives a life of leisure, poor and undesirable, yet she is determined to improve herself, working hard and frugally, which earns her the acceptance of her roommates.

Ye Wenyu had no suitors, not only because she hid herself and her family was poor, but also because she was too beautiful! Most men in this world only pursue girls they can get. She was too beautiful, academically excellent, and too outstanding. Many boys felt insecure in front of her and therefore dared not pursue her.

Ye Wenyu smiled at her roommate's "little money-grubber" comment and said, "I'm not as lucky as you guys. If I don't work, I won't have anything to eat, so I won't go to Professor Cai's class."

Her roommate nodded, her eyes filled with sympathy as she looked at her.

One of her roommates was very generous. She took out a piece of clothing she had just bought and presented it to Ye Wenyu, saying, "Wenyu, this is a piece of clothing I bought at the mall yesterday. It doesn't fit me, and I haven't worn it yet. But I think it would suit you well, so I'll give it to you."
