He Xinyan also came as a school representative.
As the seminar ended, He Xinyan had only taken a few steps when a man caught up with her.
"Xinyan, wait for me, let's have a meal together."
The man was tall and composed, and his gaze toward He Xinyan was full of admiration.
He Xinyan was all too familiar with that look; she had seen the same burning intensity in many men.
These men admired her purity and intellect, and they admired that her parents were intellectuals. He Xinyan used these qualities to climb the social ladder by stepping on these men.
She acts as if money is dirt because she wants to marry a powerful and influential man, but she doesn't want him to look down on her.
Chen Shu's parents are both government officials, and his family has a good background. His mother works in the Ministry of Education. Even if she cannot directly manage He Xinyan, she can still extend her reach to He Xinyan's school.
If she marries Chen Shu, promotions and raises will be a piece of cake for her. She can be transferred to the education department as a clerk and won't have to teach students every day.
He Xinyan has plans for her future, while Mi Fei idles away his days. He Xinyan asked him what his family does, but Mi Fei avoided answering.
Who doesn't use face powder?
Men love to show off, and Mi Fei didn't say anything, probably because his parents' positions weren't impressive.
As a result, He Xinyan was listless towards Mi Fei and had no energy to please him. This time, when the two had a falling out, she took the opportunity to string Chen Shu along.
Chen Shu was much better off than Mi Fei; he gave her an imported Walkman.
He Xinyan likes to express sincerity with money, which is why she was jealous of Dai Donglin giving Chu Yu a courtyard house.
He Xinyan stroked her hair and smiled gently:
"Brother Chen, you also dine at such a fancy restaurant?"
Chen Shu smiled and said indulgently:
"What kind of young master do you think I am? If I don't come to a fancy restaurant, where else am I supposed to eat? There's a seat over there, let's go sit down!"
The two had only taken a few steps when Chen Shu's eyes suddenly lit up. He abruptly put down his plate and excitedly said to He Xinyan:
"Xinyan, I ran into someone I know. Shall we go say hello?"
"Is he/she your friend?"
"No, I don't have any friends like that. He's from a high-ranking family; his grandfather and father both hold very high-ranking positions, the kind you'd see on the news. My family is just a small, ordinary family; we can't possibly be associated with someone like that. But we met at a friend's birthday party, and when I went over to say hello, he didn't ignore me."
