When Qian Cheng turned around, he saw Chu Xiang and Zhang Wei sitting on opposite sides. He panicked instinctively and almost knocked over his drink when he raised his hand.
The junior sister became even angrier when she saw him like this.
“Senior, give me a break! What do I lack compared to that Chu Xiang? I heard from students in our department that she comes from the countryside, her family is poor, and her mother works as a nanny in a wealthy household.”
Qian Cheng pushed up his glasses, looking somewhat uneasy. "Qingqing, you know I'm not the kind of person who values family. I value spiritual compatibility more."
“I know, senior, you don’t care about the girl’s family background, but Zhou Chuxiang does. Haven’t you noticed? The guys she’s close to all come from well-off families. No matter how pure and innocent she pretends to be, she can’t change her calculating nature. She just wants to climb up by stepping on men.”
Junior Sister Zhou Ruqing spoke with absolute certainty, so Qian Cheng could only smile awkwardly.
"I didn't notice."
"Of course you wouldn't notice. You guys can't see through girls' tricks at all. Only we girls can see these things. But to be honest, a girl like her is too goal-oriented. She's only getting close to you so she can stay in Beijing after graduation. Don't be fooled by her."
Qian Cheng gave a wry smile in response, but he felt that Chu Xiang wasn't that kind of person.
After joining the student council, Chu Xiang never spoke much, never showed off, and never tried to get close to anyone. Her most frequent activity was writing and drawing in her notebook. What kind of purpose could someone like that have?
As for the junior sister, she talks too much and loves to gossip behind people's backs. If it weren't for her parents being able to help Qian Cheng at work, Qian Cheng would definitely have abandoned her immediately and left without looking back.
Zhang Wei frowned and said, "What's wrong with Zhou Ruqing? She keeps staring at us, pointing and whispering, and her expression isn't good either. You were the one who met Qian Cheng first, so why does she have a problem with you?"
Chu Xiang also felt a little uncomfortable.
Logically speaking, Qian Cheng was just stringing her along. She once thought that Qian Cheng liked her and was quite enthusiastic towards him, but in the end, neither of them took that step. After Qian Cheng figured out that her mother was a nanny in a wealthy family, he stopped paying much attention to her.
Chu Xiang felt she hadn't wronged him, but these two were always making things difficult for her, it just wouldn't end!
"Forget it, let's finish eating and then study. There's no need to pay attention to them."
Chu Xiang took out her English book and started reading. After discovering that the people of Hong Kong were particularly good at English when she went there, Chu Xiang had the idea of learning English properly.
It's not just for exams, but also so that when I go abroad, I can talk to foreigners, learn about foreign customs and culture, and read original foreign books.
Chu Xiang had only read two pages when Zhou Ruqing came over and said, pretending to be serious:
"Hey, you look familiar. You must be from our school too, right?"
Chu Xiang and Zhang Wei exchanged a glance and nodded in unison. Seeing that they weren't very enthusiastic, Zhou Ruqing smiled and took Qian Cheng's arm. "This is my boyfriend, Qian Cheng, the student council president. You should know him, right? Qian Cheng, do you know them? They're from our school too."
Qian Cheng smiled awkwardly and turned to leave, but Zhou Ruqing forcibly pulled him back.
"Xiaoqing, let's go. Aren't you in a hurry to see the movie?"
"The movie doesn't start for another hour, so let's not rush. It's not easy to run into people from the same school, so we should chat for a bit, right? By the way, judging from your looks and attire, you must be my seniors, right?"
Chu Xiang was utterly impressed by her junior sister.
She was a year below Qian Cheng. Her junior sister was Qian Cheng's daughter, a year below Qian Cheng, and in the same year as Chu Xiang.
We often encounter this in class, and there are also large lectures for different classes that are held in the same classroom.
Chu Xiang and Zhou Ruqing see each other all the time. Zhou Ruqing has known her for a long time. Now, not only is he pretending not to know her, but he also said that judging from Chu Xiang's appearance and dress, she must be her senior!
Isn't this implying that Chu Xiang's appearance and attire are old-fashioned?
Is it really necessary?
Zhang Wei was so angry she laughed. "Zhou Ruqing, are you kidding me? We often run into each other in class. Last year you even borrowed an umbrella from me and copied Chu Xiang's homework. Even if you have small eyes, you shouldn't be so blind as to not be able to see the name on the homework when you're copying it, right? Besides, you even borrowed hot water from our dorm. Wasn't it Chu Xiang who lent it to you? If it weren't for Chu Xiang, you wouldn't be able to eat that bowl of instant noodles or wash your feet. She helped you, and you don't even remember her name. Are you so arrogant?"
Zhou Ruqing was not pleased that Zhang Wei would stand up for Chu Xiang.
"I'm sorry, I have a bad memory. I didn't realize you were in our department, and I didn't realize we'd met so many times."
This is a veiled criticism that Chu Xiang has an average face, so ordinary that she wouldn't stand out in a crowd, and despite being seen many times, she hasn't left an impression on anyone.
Women's little schemes are really funny. Chu Xiang was too lazy to argue with her, but Zhang Wei couldn't help but speak up.
"Zhou Ruqing, you're really putting on an act! You have a bad memory, don't you remember we're in the same department, don't you remember we've met so many times! Since you don't remember, you still came up to say hello. I'm telling you, you're way too familiar!"
Zhou Ruqing opened her mouth, "I just have a vague impression..."
"Alright, stop being so vague! Vague impressions, my foot! I admit I'm ugly and my clothes are old-fashioned! But how can you talk about Chu Xiang like that?! Chu Xiang's skin is whiter than yours, her figure is better, her face is younger, and she has great taste in clothes. How can you say she's your senior? I think you're more like her senior! Don't think that just because Qian Cheng calls you junior sister, you're really that young. Look at your size... We have to stick to the facts, right?"
