Chapter 1346 Found Something against You
There was a sinister aura shrouding Lü Yan. It was as if she was carrying a dark cloud weather system everywhere she went. As long as she appeared, the bright sky would turn gloomy and shadow her. Lü Yan sneered. “That’s rare. There is a saying that great men have short memories. I had thought that Vice President Qiao had long forgotten about the existence of a pitiful cla.s.smate like me. Why do I feel so honored to hear Vice President Qiao call my name?”
She said that she felt honored, but the look in Lü Yan’s eyes upon staring at Qiao Nan was filled with sinister curses and resentment.
In this lifetime, she regretted most about entering Peking University and becoming cla.s.smates with Qiao Nan. This had caused her to lose a good future that should rightfully belong to her after studying in a top tier key university. She was in such a bad state now, being neither here nor there. Even when she returned to her hometown, her parents did not seem to like her as much as before.
Why? Everyone was certain that she could not become successful in life, that she could no longer earn big bucks?
It seemed that heaven had eyes now. Those who had done bad deeds could escape for once but not all the time. Qiao Nan, this wretched thing. She had finally gotten a handle of her. “Qiao Nan, do you want to chat with me in front of so many people or find a quiet place for the two of us to chat? On the account that we are cla.s.smates, I will give you an option. Qiao Nan, it’s not that I want to chide you. Do you know what a guilty conscience is? You’re just a college student, yet you used so many luxury products. Do you think that everyone is blind except you?!”
“Hey, what are you going to talk about? Let me listen too?” Tang Jiayun’s eyes lit up. She had said… Lü Yan dared to appear in front of Qiao Nan today. Certainly, she was in for a good show. After approaching Qiao Nan, she smelled something different. “Qiao Nan, when did you start to use perfume?” She smelled really nice. From the smell of it, one could tell that it was not cheap.
As if one Lü Yan was not enough, Tang Jiayun had also joined in. Qiao Nan was having a bad headache. “First, Lü Yan, there’s nothing for me to chat with you about. I remember you. Take it that I have a good memory. Second, Cla.s.smate Tang, sorry, I don’t have the habit of using perfume.” With the triplets by her side, she did not intend to apply perfume for the rest of her life.
“If there is no other matter, can I trouble you to make way? I am rus.h.i.+ng to go home.”
Lü Yan gave a grim and sinister smile. “Since you didn’t do bad deeds, you should not feel guilty. Why are you so anxious to escape? You are taking my courtesy for granted. I will say everything in front of everyone then? Qiao Nan, don’t regret it. Once I say it, you will not be able to sustain your image of a pure and innocent lady in the school.”
Speaking of this pure and innocent image, Lü Yan especially felt like vomiting blood.
Qiao Nan had this image not because of other people but Lü Yan. When they were in the first year of college studies, Lü Yan accused Qiao Nan that the latter made use of her ident.i.ty as a Peking University student and shamelessly became the kept woman of an old man who drove a Land Rover. In the end, the school verified that that old man was, in fact, Qiao Nan’s elder.
Qiao Nan kept a very low-profile in the school, behaving like a bookworm. She was pretty and good at her studies. However, she had never made use of these qualities to befriend other male students. She did not have many scandals too, let alone becoming a kept woman.
Didn’t Qiao Nan’s behavior reflect that of a cla.s.sic, goody-two-shoes lady?
Although this was termed as goody-two-shoes in junior and senior high school, this kind of lady would seem a little dull in college. However, Qiao Nan’s beauty could not be contained. No one shunned Qiao Nan for being a dead fish because of her inflexible life that was akin to that of a nun. Instead, they labeled her as a pure and innocent lady because of the kept woman scandal initiated by Lü Yan.
Pure and innocent lady—as pure as jade!
If Qiao Nan was like a pure and innocent lady who gave others feelings of n.o.bility and innocence, in the recent three years, the lifeless Lü Yan was behaving like a rat in the drain that always seemed shady.
Regarding this, anyone could imagine how much hate Lü Yan had in her heart.
Today, she had finally gotten something against Qiao Nan. Lü Yan could not wait to hold a loudspeaker and announce to the entire school to let everyone know how wretched the true Qiao Nan was after tearing down the layer of mask.
“Qiao Nan, are you still going to pretend? When we were in the first year of our studies, I don’t know what means you used to let the professors in the school help you lie and prove that that old man is your elder. However, you can’t hide it anymore. If I didn’t remember wrongly, you even applied for work and study in your first year. May I ask? A college student who has to rely on working part-time to earn a living allowance, why would she have the money to buy so many luxury skincare products? The products that you apply on your face, a bottle of it is not cheap. It costs almost half a month of ordinary folks’ salary, right?”
“If you use one set of such products for your face, it will cost two to three months of ordinary folks’ salary. Qiao Nan, aren’t you going to explain how you became so wealthy?” At the end of her speech, Lü Yan’s eyes were red with jealousy!
“Goodness…” When those nearby heard that the products applied on Qiao Nan’s face would cost two to three months of the salary of typical folks, those with humble family backgrounds could not help gasping in cold air.
If the products applied on the face were to cost two to three months of salary, besides applying things on the face, what were the family members going to eat and drink? Were they still going to live on?
Lü Yan revealed her teeth and smiled smugly. “Qiao Nan, you still say that you’re not a kept woman!” Besides being a kept woman, who could bear to spend so much money on Qiao Nan, buying these costly luxury skincare products?
Qiao Nan gritted her teeth. She had not applied the items given to her by Auntie Fen for more than a week but had been ‘caught red-handed’ by Lü Yan. Lü Yan even made use of this to blow the matter up. “Lü Yan, you have wide knowledge. If I didn’t remember wrongly, the product that I apply on my face is not available for sale in the local market yet. How did you know so clearly and understand so well about it? I have never brought it to school. How can you tell?”
“I…” Lü Yan’s expression changed. “I can tell from the smell. This brand of skincare products is effective, and most importantly, it has a light fragrance that can last as long as a perfume.” As it was not on sale in the local market, she had thought that she made a mistake when she first caught a faint smell of it on Qiao Nan. She had believed that the fragrance did not come from Qiao Nan but herself.
However, after a couple of times and a few consecutive days, Lü Yan was certain that she did not make a mistake. Qiao Nan had the smell of that brand of skincare products on her.
“Besides me, where else did you smell it from?” Qiao Nan asked without any reservation.
