"Did all three of you go to take the exam?" Chen Jin asked with a displeased expression after Song Wenwen hung up the phone.
"Yeah, you already know, don't you?" Song Wenwen was puzzled. They had never hidden their reading from Chen Jin.
“I know you and Shanshan went, but I didn’t hear that Qiao An went too.”
Jiang Shanshan didn't think too much about it. "We all took the exam with Qiao An. If Qiao An hadn't said she would guarantee my residency, I probably wouldn't have taken it. But it's quite difficult, and I don't know if I can pass."
"Why didn't you tell me? You all participated but I didn't." Chen Jin felt a surge of anger for no reason. How could they exclude her? What kind of person is Bi Qiaoan? We're all in the same dorm. Is it necessary to play such tricks?
"Ah Jin, if I told you, would you take the exam?" Song Wenwen asked when she saw that Chen Jin was angry.
"No!" Chen Jin said through gritted teeth, his voice firm and resolute.
"That's more like it." Song Wennuan felt that Chen Jin was being a bit dramatic today. If you want to take the exam, no one's stopping you. You didn't say anything about those two in the dorm always carrying books around, but you can't sit still when you hear that Qiao An is participating?
What did Bi Qiaoan do to offend you?
"Hmph, even if you pass the exam, you'll only earn five or six thousand a month. The Shen Group pays twelve thousand a month." Chen Jin's tone was tinged with contempt. He had only been caught off guard by things getting out of control and hadn't reacted in time. Now that he had calmed down, he knew that Bi Qiaoan was no match for him.
Song Wenwen and Jiang Shanshan exchanged a glance, then pursed their lips and remained silent.
Having finally resolved a worry, Bi Qiaoan slept soundly that night, only to be woken up by Shen Yanming for lunch the next day.
"I'll take you back to school in a bit. You can stay in your dorm for a few days while I go to the southern province to collect some supplies."
Bi Qiaoan paused in her act of picking up food. "How long will it take?"
"I'm not sure, I need to check the safety of it. I'll try to be back within a week. Take care of yourself."
"good!"
After the meal, Shen Yanming drove Bi Qiaoan back to school. When they passed a bakery, Bi Qiaoan got out of the car and bought a cake, eight egg tarts, and four cups of milk tea.
As soon as Bi Qiaoan arrived at the dorm, she was bombarded with Jiang Shanshan's voice, "Ahhh, Qiaoan, is this the delicious food you brought us? You're like a mind reader, how did you know I wanted cake? Qiaoan, I love you so much! Come here, give me a kiss, mua~"
"Shanshan, control yourself!" Song Wennuan smiled and stepped forward to pull Jiang Shanshan off Bi Qiaoan. "But it is indeed a coincidence. Shanshan was saying last night that it would be great if Qiaoan brought her a cake. I didn't expect you to actually bring a cake today."
"Haha, that's quite a coincidence. Enough with the chit-chat, let's dig in, ladies."
Jiang Shanshan didn't stand on ceremony and took the initiative to take on the task of cutting the pieces.
Chen Jin took hers, pursed her lips, and said, "Qiao An, I heard you also took an exam yesterday. How did it go?"
"It's alright, anyway, it's all filled up." Chen Jin really cares about her, but Bi Qiaoan doesn't mind, as long as Chen Jin doesn't join in the fun.
"If I had known you were going to participate, I would have signed up too. Maybe all four of us in our dorm would have passed!"
Sure enough, it was the right thing to keep Chen Jin in the dark, otherwise I don't know how I would have died of vomiting.
"Hehe, I only took the exam because I wanted a stable life. You're beautiful and capable, so of course you should go to a big corporation to expand your territory and conquer all, so as not to waste the talent that God gave you!" As long as she could get rid of Chen Jin, Bi Qiaoan would flatter him no matter how loud the praise was.
"Look at what you're saying, I'm not as good as you make me out to be!" Chen Jin's mood instantly improved, and a hint of shyness appeared on her face.
"Yes, yes, yes!" Bi Qiaoan nodded like a chick pecking at rice, begging you to spare me and stop eyeing my little patch of land.
"By the way, Xiao Fei and I are getting engaged on May 20th. Everyone is welcome to come and join the fun!"
"Huh? So early, Jin, are you going to get married right after graduation?" Jiang Shanshan exclaimed in surprise.
“Xiao Fei’s grandfather passed away recently. His family said that he should either get married within a year or wait three years. Xiao Fei and I discussed it and decided to get engaged first, and then get married after we start working, save up for a down payment, and buy a house.”
"So, it doesn't necessarily mean we'll get married within a year. We'll get married whenever we buy a house?" Song Wenuan asked.
"That's what I was thinking, but Xiao Fei said that based on our combined salaries, buying a house by the end of the year is still very possible." Chen Jin nodded with a smile. Xiao Fei's salary was high, which was one of the reasons she agreed at the time.
"Congratulations!" Bi Qiao was delighted. Let these two love and hate each other, so they won't go and harm other good families.
"I'm so envious!" Jiang Shanshan thought to herself. Chen Jin is a winner in life. You can't be envious or jealous of him.
"Yes, congratulations! If you need anything, we'll come and help you." Song Wenuan's first words were indeed full of warmth and comfort.
"Thank you!" Chen Jin smiled, picked up a spoon and scooped out a piece of cake. Mmm, so delicious. It must be expensive. Once I start working, I can buy whatever I want without feeling guilty.
As Bi Qiaoan ate, she thought about it. In her previous life, Xiao Fei's family did indeed have such a story. At that time, Xiao Fei wanted to marry her as soon as possible. Xiao Fei kept trying to persuade her that he wanted to move into her house after the marriage, but she disagreed.
Later, the two had increasingly bigger conflicts and broke up after graduation.
Thinking about it this way, Xiao Fei didn't really like me that much in my past life. Maybe adults just become more realistic and have to consider cost-effectiveness when choosing a partner.
In his past life, Xiao Fei chose to confess his feelings to him perhaps because he owned a house, or perhaps because he was certain he would join the Shen Group. Their breakup in that life was probably because he felt he couldn't gain anything from him anymore. Without those advantages in this life, Xiao Fei changed his target for confession.
For Xiao Fei, choosing Chen Jin was a very smart thing to do. Chen Jin is beautiful and capable, and as an orphan, she can devote herself wholeheartedly to her family in the future. For example, right now, Chen Jin has chosen to take out a loan with Xiao Fei to buy a house without hesitation. If it were someone else, they might have considered it and asked Xiao Fei's family to come up with a huge dowry or something.
That's fine, it's good!
Time flew by, and while her classmates were busy, Bi Qiaoan had nothing to do.
Shen Yanming still hadn't returned by the time Chen Jin got engaged. He had only been away for a week, but now it had been almost a month.
Shen Yanming would call Bi Qiaoan almost every day to report his whereabouts.
Bi Qiaoan misses Shen Yanming very much and wants to go find him, but Shen Yanming says that following him is too hard and tells Bi Qiaoan to enjoy her last days of university.
Chen Jin and Xiao Fei's engagement ceremony was very simple; they just held a simple ceremony at a restaurant.
This was the first time Bi Qiaoan had met Xiao Fei's family. Xiao Fei's parents seemed very kind. Upon learning that they were both middle school teachers, Bi Qiaoan nodded inwardly. In a sense, they had raised Xiao Fei very well.
Seeing how happy Mr. and Mrs. Xiao were, Bi Qiaoan sighed inwardly, "They really are a family destined for each other!"
