Chapter 340: Zi Yi Asks Zi Xuan, Why Can’t I Be Here?
Since Dou Xiangling had said it this way, Zi Yi did not say anything else.
After all, these types of things can only be resolved by the person involved.
The two of them started to talk about their Grandfather.
“Grandfather is able to talk now. He can even get down from the bed and walk a few steps.”
Having said that, joy could be seen on Dou Xiangling’s face. “I heard that Grandfather has been taking the prescription you made and his complexion has gotten much better too. After we return from the compet.i.tion, he might even be able to be discharged from the hospital and come home to recuperate!”
Zi Yi was also happy from the news she heard.
Dou Xiangling pulled Zi Yi’s hands and said, “Yiyi, why don’t you visit Grandfather before we go overseas? Even though he did not bring it up, but when I went to visit him last night, he even asked about your situation during the military training.”
Zi Yi thought about it for a moment and nodded. “Then I’ll go and visit him in the morning tomorrow. At that time, we can directly set off to the airport.”
“Sounds great.”
After they chatted a while more, they headed towards the First Auditorium.
M.Uni’s First Auditorium was located in between the School of Foreign Language and School of Sciences and it was the largest auditorium in the school compound; it could accommodate up to 8000 people.
There were around 5000 freshmen and coupled with the various directors and faculty members, it would only be around 6000 people.
When Zi Yi and Dou Xiangling made their way over, the freshmen were walking in one after another.
Everyone could not help but stop and look in her direction when they saw Zi Yi.
“Quick, look over there. That’s the beautiful girl from the independent enrollment examination who scored the first place and yet, she enrolled in the Archaeology Major.”
“Oh heavens, isn’t she too beautiful? She’s even prettier than the photos on the school forum!”
“We were all tanned from the military training, so why is she so pale?”
“I heard that when she was in military training, her good looks had distracted everyone around her from the training, and the leader had directly transferred her to the military dog training camp.”
“I wonder if she has a boyfriend?”
“Not only is she beautiful, she even has such a hot body. The heavens are simply unfair!”
Many of the male students stopped walking after they saw her.
Dou Xiangling could not help but laugh. “Yiyi, you will definitely receive plenty of love letters in the future.”
Zi Yi coldly glanced at them and looked away while she raised up her hand to reveal the ring. “I already have a boyfriend.”
Dou Xiangling was a little surprised to see the ring on her finger. “Mr. Lu gifted it to you?”
“Yep.”
Dou Xiangling did not speak after that, but she was feeling complicated emotions deep down.
Yet, the women had breathed out a sigh of relief.
However, before they had fully relaxed, they heard a nice-sounding voice call out to Zi Yi.
“Junior Zi.”
When Zi Yi and Dou Xiangling looked over, the other people had also followed suit.
“Oh my~ So handsome!”
“Isn’t this the Head of the Marketing Department of the Student Union, Chu Xuan? Why is he looking for Zi Yi?”
Just as everyone was paying full attention to the situation, Chu Xuan walked over with a smile.
“Junior Zi, do you remember me?”
Zi Yi looked at the man before her and coldly replied, “Yes, I remember. Why are you looking for me.”
“I am Chu Xuan, the Head of Marketing Department of the Student Union. On behalf of the Head of Culture and Sports Department, I’m here to invite you to partic.i.p.ate in tonight’s New Year’s Eve event.”
Zi Yi furrowed her brows and was about to reject him.
Dou Xiangling raised her hand and patted Zi Yi’s hand as she smiled and said to Chu Xuan, “Student Chu Xuan, my cousin just returned from the military training and she has made no preparation in advance. Isn’t it too much for you to invite her to partic.i.p.ate in a program like this?”
Chu Xuan hastily tried to explain. “You are mistaken. The program does not necessarily require you to do a song or a dance. I heard that Student Zi is skilled in painting, you can simply complete a painting for the program.”
After he said that, he smiled and deliberately asked, “Could it be that Student Zi is not confident of her skills?”
“Having confidence or not is not something a program in an event can prove. Senior Chu, since your Student Union wants me to perform, you should have informed me before my military training. If you’re telling me only now, can I a.s.sume that the Student Union is deliberately trying to make things difficult for me?”
Chu Xuan was not stumped by Zi Yi’s harsh words. He still maintained a smile and said, “How could it be considered as making things difficult for you? We all believe that Junior Zi has the capability.”
Zi Yi narrowed her eyes and looked at Chu Xuan.
Chu Xuan lowered his eyes and said, “You can obtain credits from partic.i.p.ating in the evening event. Aren’t you tempted by it?”
“Nope.”
Zi Yi was originally about to think about it. The moment she heard what he said about credits, she suddenly did not wish to even consider it.
Receiving credits is as easy as ABC for her and she does not need to partic.i.p.ate in such events.
Chu Xuan did not expect Zi Yi to leave. Just as she wanted to speak up again, a sharp voice sounded from the side. “Zi Yi, why are you here?”
Zi Yi’s footsteps paused when she heard the voice.
Everyone looked towards the female student who was fuming in anger.
Dou Xiangling furrowed her brows and came closer to Zi Yi as she whispered in her ears, “Yiyi, is she that younger sister of yours?”
“That’s right.”
When Zi Yi replied to her, Zi Xuan had already dashed over in anger.
She looked at Zi Yi and questioned, “Why are you here?”
“Why can’t I be here?”
Zi Yi looked at her and snorted.
She originally planned to ignore the Zi Family members as long as they did not appear before her to cause trouble, on the account of the original owner of this body.
However, the young lady before her does not seem to have the same thoughts.
Zi Xuan felt that the presence of Zi Yi was humiliating for her. When she saw that she actually dared to stand here in broad daylight, her face turned red from anger as she shouted, “This is M.Uni, not a place that you can mess around in. If you want to mess around, please go outside.”
“Mess around?” Zi Yi spoke these two words in a playful manner then she sized up Zi Xuan up and down. “As expected of someone who has turned stupid from studying.”
“You–”
Zi Xuan was so angry that her chest undulated heavily.
Dou Xiangling couldn’t stand it any longer and said, “Yiyi’s younger sister, if you continue to act like this, the princ.i.p.al will personally come and visit you shortly.”
Zi Yi’s lips curled up and she looked at Zi Xuan. “What my cousin said is right. Talking to someone who lives in her own world is simply a waste of time.”
After she said that, she whispered in Zi Xuan’s ears, “Keep your eyes open wide and see how a person who you regarded as an idiot becomes someone who is out of your reach.”
The original owner had always been called an idiot by her younger sister. Since that was the case, she shall let her know the feeling of being inferior to an idiot.
Following that, Zi Yi turned around and headed into the auditorium together with Dou Xiangling.
Zi Xuan stood there with an ashen expression.
Right now, there were many people surrounding her as they commented about her behavior.
“Who is she? To think she said that Student Zi is here to mess around?”
“Student Zi clearly came here to partic.i.p.ate in the opening ceremony like us.”
“That’s right, could it be that she doesn’t know that Student Zi was the top scorer of the independent enrollment exam?”
…
When Zi Xuan heard the whispers, she felt as if she had been struck by lightning and stood there motionless.
It was only after a long time did she conceal the shock and disbelief on her face and headed towards the auditorium.
She did not believe that an idiot, who only knew how to spend her dad’s money and mess around with people from the underworld, would be the one who scored full marks in the independent enrollment exam!
She had to verify it personally!
