He used his connections to introduce her to several so-called board members of the academy, but Ai Qingyan later discovered that they were just ordinary lecturers.

I gave Ai Qingyan a gift, a mineral necklace that was supposedly a limited edition. Ai Qingyan found the same one on the StarNet, and it was only 199 Star Coins on sale.

What's even more disgusting is that Yuan Mao pretended to be affectionate, sending a message in the middle of the night with a hoarse voice saying he missed her so much he couldn't sleep, while simultaneously sending the same message to other girls he was chatting with on the StarNet.

Ai Qingyan watched coldly, cooperating with the act of being moved, but in her heart she only found it laughable.

Yuan Mao was unaware that when she first arrived, she idly browsed the forum of the First Academy of the Star Federation, hoping to see the latest news from the academy.

As a result, a popular post suddenly caught her eye, titled "Let's expose that rich guy surnamed Yuan who preys on wealthy women."

The post detailed Yuan Mao's glorious deeds and even made a list. It started with Wang Yuan, the youngest daughter of the Wang family, who was swindled out of millions of star coins and ended up throwing them all away at the casino. It also mentioned that Yuan Mao tricked the eldest daughter of the Li family into giving him a top-of-the-line hovercar, which he then sold to pay off his gambling debts.

There was also a third Miss Zhou, who was almost tricked into marriage by Yuan Mao. In the end, her family found out and sent bodyguards to threaten her into breaking up with him.

There were several more, but Ai Qingyan didn't want to watch any more.

In the photos attached to the post, Yuan Mao, whose eyes were blurred, was seen embracing different girls.

Ai Qingyan stared at the screen, a cold smile slowly curving her lips.

So that's how it is. It seems he already saw her as prey when he met her at the new school?

But so what? She only intended to use him temporarily.

This led to the subsequent exploitation, where the scheme was turned on and the father was used even more recklessly. He would also show off his wealth to Yuan Mao from time to time, saying that his father was very rich, but only rich, giving Yuan Mao new illusions.

Downstairs in the dormitory, Ai Qingyan accidentally revealed the limited edition light computer on her wrist to Yuan Mao again. It was actually a second-hand item that she had bought from the black market.

"Sigh, my father recently froze my account..."

"We have to be very careful with our living expenses."

She sighed sadly.

Yuan Mao's smile froze instantly. Since they transferred schools, he had already spent a lot of star coins on Ai Qingyan.

Sometimes he wondered if he had been deceived by this woman, who had spent so many of his star coins and still hadn't confirmed their relationship.

But whenever he had doubts, Ai Qingyan would always give him a little treat, being very affectionate with him, or teasing him.

"However, my father will be coming to Emerald Star next month; he recently signed a deal for interstellar mining..."

But Ai Qingyan then inadvertently mentioned...

This was the first time she had mentioned that her father had come to see her, and Yuan Mao's eyes immediately lit up.

In the days that followed, Ai Qingyan exploited him even more relentlessly, subtly manipulating Yuan Mao into spending money to grease palms at the academy, while secretly transferring the money into her own secret account.

Anyway, Yuan Mao's money was obtained by him through sweet talk and deception from netizens on Xingwang, so Ai Qingyan felt no guilt at all in spending it.

It was Yuan Mao who lied to others, not her.

Moreover, Yuan Mao spent money on her voluntarily; it wasn't that she asked Yuan Mao to spend money on her.
