Ning Yuan also took a sip of the fruit juice and smiled, "Not only will we arrest those who put up big-character posters, but also those who, if I find out they are the masterminds behind it all... heh!"
As she spoke, she blinked and put the cup down with a hint of disdain.
The two cans of fruit juice that the group of foreign students gave to Grandma Xia had a strong artificial flavor, and she felt that they were nowhere near as good as the sparkling water she made herself.
...
the next day
At lunchtime, the Fudan University cafeteria was bustling with activity.
Students, carrying aluminum lunchboxes, gathered in twos and threes, eating and discussing popular topics at school.
Ning Yuan, Chu Hongyu, and Yan Yangyang sat down to eat together as usual.
Today, Chu Hongyu wore a light blue dress and an acrylic headband. Her long, black hair was draped over her shoulders, making her skin look as white as snow and her beauty even more captivating.
Naturally, it also attracts a lot of attention.
Although she tried her best to ignore the stares and comments, she still had a poor appetite. She only ate a few bites before putting down her chopsticks, resting her chin on her hand, and looking rather unenthusiastic.
"You're not eating enough, you spoiled brat! Eat more so those bad guys can see you can eat and sleep well!" Yan Yangyang said indignantly, taking a bite of her steamed bun.
Ning Yuan smiled and picked up a piece of scrambled eggs with her chopsticks, handing it to Chu Hongyu: "That's right! We'll be open and aboveboard, and do what we should do!"
"Alright!" Chu Hongyu said with a hint of helplessness, but her heart was warmed.
At this moment, Lu Jingui walked past them with an air of nonchalance, followed by two girls who helped her carry her water bottle and lunchbox, looking every bit like a queen on a royal procession.
"Oh, isn't this our Miss Chu? How dare you come to the cafeteria to eat? If I were you, I'd rather stay in my dorm and not come out, so as not to embarrass myself."
Before Lu Jingui even got close, a short, bespectacled girl next to her spoke up in a sarcastic tone. She was Miao Sanlu, one of Lu Jingui's henchmen.
Chu Hongyu suddenly raised her head, a glint of fire flashing in her eyes, about to retort: "You..."
Lu Jingui stopped Miao Sanlu, sighing softly, "Sanlu, don't say that. Chu is also a victim of bad luck in meeting the wrong person. We should understand her."
"Hongyu, ignore her. If a dog bites you, can you bite it back?" Ning Yuan suddenly put down her chopsticks, slowly raised her eyes and stared at Miao Sanlu, her tone carrying a hint of barely perceptible coldness.
Miao Sanlu was startled by Ning Yuan's imposing manner, but still stubbornly said, "What, did I say something wrong? After doing such a thing, you still have the nerve to come out and embarrass yourself!"
"Miao Sanlu, watch your mouth! Are you looking for a beating?" Yan Yangyang slammed his hand on the table and stood up, glaring angrily at Miao Sanlu.
Lu Jingui stopped and said calmly, "Alright, Sanlu! It's not a good habit to say hurtful things!"
Today she was wearing a gray suit-style dress, which accentuated her curvaceous figure, but her slightly aged face still carried an undisguised arrogance.
"Chairman Lu is indeed reasonable." Miao Sanlu looked at Lu Jingui with a fawning expression.
Lu Jingui then looked at Ning Yuan with a gentle smile: "Ning Yuan, there's no need to be so harsh. We're all classmates, we should help each other!"
Ning Yuan gave a half-smile: "Whoever was the first to be sarcastic knows it in their heart."
Lu Jingui's attitude towards her is quite good; he hasn't given up on his idea of taking advantage of his older brother, has he? He really thinks Ning Bingyu is a pushover!
Lu Jingui didn't mind. He walked over to Chu Hongyu, patted her shoulder, and said sincerely and regretfully, "Chu, don't take it to heart. A clear conscience fears no accusation. The innocent will clear themselves, and rumors will stop with the wise. Time will prove everything."
Chu Hongyu felt utterly disgusted by Lu Jingui's hypocritical act.
While picking up some food, Ning Yuan said to Lu Jingui in a leisurely manner, "Chairman Lu is right, time will tell. However, some people should not be too smug. They may end up losing more than they gain. After all, this is not the first time some people have done this kind of thing."
If you dance in front of her, then let Lu Jingui be "happy, happy".
Lu Jingui's expression changed slightly, but he quickly regained his calm and collected demeanor: "Ning Yuan, what do you mean by that? I don't understand."
"Chairman Lu knows what I mean," Ning Yuan said, looking at her with a half-smile.
"I heard that Chairman Lu went to interview Mr. Ning a few days ago, but was turned away. I wonder if that's true?"
Lu Jingui's face immediately turned ugly. She suppressed her anger and said with a forced smile, "Mr. Ning is very busy. I am just a student. Naturally, I am not worthy of the attention of a big capitalist like him."
"Really?" Ning Yuan raised an eyebrow. "I heard from a teacher in the school office that Mr. Ning felt that you were rudely interfering with his work during the interview, forcibly entering his office, which caused him to lose several important documents."
Lu Jingui's face immediately turned cold, and he stared sharply at Ning Yuan: "Ning Yuan, you can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want. You can't attack us ordinary people just because you've latched onto a capitalist. What does his missing document have to do with me!"
Ning Yuan looked completely innocent: "Why are you so angry? I didn't say that, a teacher from the school office said it."
She paused deliberately: "And I heard that Mr. Ning's letter of criticism was sent to the school the day before yesterday. Criticizing you like this could easily lead to the leakage of his trade secrets."
She observed Lu Jingui's expression before slowly adding, "Chairman Lu, do you think this will significantly affect all your awards and commendations this year?"
Lu Jingui's fingers were clenched so tightly that his knuckles began to turn white.
"If you're determined to find fault, you can always find a reason! How dare he frame me..."
Lu Jingui gritted his teeth and squeezed out these words, the image of Ning Bingyu's handsome yet indifferent face flashing through his mind.
Ning Bingyu, that ungrateful man, how dare he treat her like this!
She even thought he had potential and that with proper training, he could become a good match for her, since money is worthless in the face of literature!
Ning Yuan covered her mouth and chuckled, her tone tinged with sarcasm: "Didn't you frame him? If Mr. Ning really disliked the students interviewing him, why would he turn around and rehire Chu Hongyu as his assistant, and even accept the interview?"
As she spoke, she deliberately turned her gaze to Chu Hongyu, a mischievous smile in her eyes.
Chu Hongyu was taken aback at first. She subconsciously looked at Lu Jingui and found that he was staring at her intently with a distorted look in his eyes.
She immediately realized what was happening, straightened her back, raised her chin cooperatively, and curled a mocking smile at the corner of her mouth: "The Ning family said that I know better about boundaries and am not as arrogant and rude as some people, so they want me to start work tomorrow!"
Upon hearing this, Lu Jingui's face turned deathly pale. She stared intently at Chu Hongyu, as if trying to bore a hole through her face.
She never expected that Ning Bingyu would actually hire Chu Hongyu again!
That Chu Hongyu is indeed a slut!
She's a slut who seduced everyone from Ning Bingyu to his bodyguard and driver!
How dare you insult a respectable woman like her!
