But now I realize how shallow my understanding was. It turns out that their ancestors were not only rich, but also powerful, and not just any kind of powerful.
I suddenly understood why she always disliked me and targeted me in every way.
Given her family background, she must have been the center of attention from childhood, and no one would dare to steal her thunder. But she ended up in the same college as me by chance, and I stole her attention. How could she not be angry?
"Hello, Grandpa Su." Xu Qianning greeted him sweetly as soon as she entered.
Mr. Su smiled and replied, then turned to look at Su Shenglin beside me.
Before the old man could speak, Su Shenglin immediately nodded: "Hello, Grandpa Xu, hello, Miss Xu."
I know that the Xu family has been visiting the Su family frequently lately, so this is definitely not the first time Su Shenglin has met Xu Qianning.
I was surprised that he addressed me as "Miss Xu" in such a distant way.
Xu Qianning looked at him frankly, "Brother Shenglin, were you alright last night? My grandfather heard about what happened last night, so he came to check on you and Muxi."
so?
I suddenly understood; it turned out that this trip was for Su Shenglin.
It seems that she doesn't mind at all that Su Shenglin already has a girlfriend; she still cares about him and admires him as before.
In this respect, it's quite similar to how Jiang Yi liked Gu Yanqing back then.
On her eighteenth birthday, Jiang Yi confessed her love to Gu Yanqing in front of all the guests, saying that her biggest wish in life was to marry Gu Yanqing.
At that time, I was Gu Yanqing's girlfriend, and I was completely ignored.
This scene is exactly the same as it was back then.
It remains to be seen whether Xu Qianning will be as "lucky" as Jiang Yi and actually become the bride of her beloved.
"I'm fine, thank you for your concern, Miss Xu. And thank you for the clothes you wore last night as well," Su Shenglin replied politely.
Xu Qianning smiled and said, "Brother Shenglin, you're too kind. It's just a piece of clothing, nothing at all."
Before she finished speaking, she turned her gaze to me, her smile carrying a hint of provocation and disdain that only I could understand.
After I added her on WeChat last night, I immediately transferred 30,000 yuan to her.
She didn't accept it and returned it.
They probably felt that the favor was for Su Shenglin and had nothing to do with me, so they wouldn't bother accepting the money.
"Jiang Wan, you're here too..." After laughing, she took the initiative to greet me.
I smiled back and said, "Yes, I came here specifically to visit Grandpa Su."
Mr. Su was somewhat surprised, "You two know each other?"
Xu Qianning said, "Grandpa Su, Jiang Wan and I know more than just each other. We were college classmates, from the same college. Back then, Jiang Wan was a prominent figure in our college, no, I should say a prominent figure in the whole school."
Mr. Su's face showed a hint of interest, and he raised his hand to signal everyone to sit down.
The servant serves tea.
Xu Qianning looked at me and deliberately asked, "Isn't that right, Jiang Wan? You are beautiful and outstanding in every way. Countless male students in the school pursue you and admire you. It's a pity that you got together with Young Master Gu as your boyfriend as soon as you entered the school, which broke the hearts of many male students."
I chuckled inwardly, not at all surprised by Xu Qianning's outrageous move.
My affair with Gu Yanqing has become the talk of the town these past few months.
Just when things were starting to calm down, Su Shenglin and I started a new relationship—but then this sworn enemy of mine got into a huge fight and even brought it up in front of Su Shenglin's grandfather to tease him.
After thinking for a moment, I slowly and deliberately said with self-deprecation, "Back then, I was young and naive, thinking that I could exchange sincerity for sincerity, but I didn't expect to lose so badly. It really made me a laughing stock for many people."
I didn't offer any explanation.
Because there is no way to defend oneself.
It would be better to openly admit it, put yourself in the shoes of the victim, and use this as a strategic retreat.
"Miss Xu is probably laughing at me in her heart, isn't she?" I paused, then leaned in close to her and said, "Since college, we've been neck and neck. Now that I've stumbled in love, you must be happy."
Ha, I don't care if there are any elders here or not, I'll just say what I have to say.
Sure enough, my words piqued the interest of the two old men.
Mr. Xu turned to his granddaughter and asked, "A-Ning, do you and Miss Jiang not get along?"
"No, it's just that some projects or competitions at the academy have limited spots, so competition is inevitable," Xu Qianning said with a smile, trying to save face.
"Jiang Wan is amazing. I'm not as skilled as her, so I have nothing to say." She turned to me again and finished speaking, her expression clearly showing some displeasure.
I went along with it and said, "Miss Xu is too modest. Actually, those things didn't meet your standards, which is why I got a good deal."
"..." Xu Qianning glanced at me and chuckled, "It's good that you understand."
The atmosphere was extremely awkward.
