1459 Gu Jingyan Instantly Became A Prominent Figure
Gu Jingyan also pulled Lu Beichen out. Her main intention was to tell him about lunch. However, they b.u.mped into some roommates as soon as they stepped outside.
They saw Gu Jingyan and wanted to call out to her, but they then saw someone beside Gu Jingyan. Who was that?
Wasn’t that Lu Beichen?!
“Lu… Lu Beichen…”
“No way. Why is Gu Jingyan together with him?”
“They seem to know one another.”
The group stared at Gu Jingyan.
Gu Jingyan also already sighted them. She glanced at the attention-grabbing Lu Beichen and said, “Okay, okay. I’ll see you in the canteen. I’ll go ahead first.”
“Alright.” Lu Beichen put his hands in his pockets and stood there. He was so handsome that he made people blush.
Gu Jingyan skipped towards her roommates.
“Ah, Gu Jingyan. You and Lu Beichen…”
“Gu Jingyan, be honest with us. Why were you with Lu Beichen?”
The two girls immediately cornered Gu Jingyan and interrogated her.
Gu Jingyan said, “Hey, hey, hey, we’re all in one school. What’s the big deal about knowing him? We’d be in close proximity professionally or not. It’s normal that we would meet frequently…”
Who could meet Lu Beichen frequently…?
“We also b.u.mp into him frequently, but how is it that we’ve never talked to him after so long?!”
“Hey, that’s because you guys never talked to him.”
Indeed, they’d be squealing infatuatedly upon seeing him. They have never talked to him.
But they already heard long ago that although Lu Beichen looked like he wasn’t that difficult to get close to, he was very aloof in person. If he did not like a person, he would not give face to them at all.
After all, a man like him didn’t have to look up to anyone else.
The two flanked Gu Jingyan as they went back.
Before they reached the door, Liu Yi also came over.
“Who did I see you with just now?” Liu Yi looked outside. “Was that Lu Beichen?”
Gu Jingyan patted him. “What? Didn’t I tell you that I was going to look for him?”
“You really went? I thought you were joking.”
“Cough. Why would I joke about that for no reason?”
“Wouldn’t you? I thought you were joking. You’re really…”
Liu Yi looked outside for a long time.
He felt a little jealous. Lu Beichen was both rich and handsome. He was really lucky and that was why a girl like Gu Jingyan was destined to be his.
Although Gu Jingyan would never have any ‘love at first sight’ feelings, she was such a pretty girl, and men were bound to have fantasies about her.
Needless to say, if she gave them even a little bit of hope, every one of them would drop everything for her in a heartbeat.
But if she really fancied Lu Beichen now, Liu Yi could only give her his blessing. Why would such a good girl like her fall for a guy like him? This much he understood too.
But he still could not help feeling disappointed.
In the afternoon, Gu Jingyan waved bye to Liu Yi. “I’m off to lunch.”
Liu Yi watched as Gu Jingyan went in. Lu Beichen and the others soon joined her and they went to have lunch together.
He laughed bitterly and sighed. The reality was indeed cruel.
However, this scene was observed by many other students in school.
In the few short days of Gu Jingyan’s arrival, her name was already making waves.
Many people secretly went to find out more about her. Many also talked about her beauty.
Although many people didn’t know her and some haven’t even seen her, they already knew that a beauty had arrived in the faculty of finance, and her name was Gu Jingyan.
Now, everyone was even more aware that as soon as Gu Jingyan arrived, she began hanging out with Lu Beichen’s gang.
This wasn’t the only impressive thing about Gu Jingyan.
In her first few days of school, she submitted a paper that was straight away published in a world-renowned finance magazine. The school publicly praised her for it.
Everyone also instantly knew that Gu Jingyan was a straight-A student. She entered Q University because she was directly invited as the top student in B City. But because she kept a low profile, the school had never publicized it.
On this day, the paper was published. The teacher then congratulated her in cla.s.s.
At the same time, the teacher also brought up Gu Jingyan’s glorious history.
Everyone turned to look at this beauty who could have clearly just relied on her looks for her career. Instead, she was so talented too.
Liu Yu was seated with her. He looked at her admiringly. “Wow, Gu Jingyan, so you’re that impressive.”
Gu Jingyan asked, “What do you mean by that? You didn’t think that I would be this impressive?”
“Well, I thought that since you’re such a pretty girl, you could just get by with your looks.”
Gu Jingyan sneered. “So what you’re saying is that I’m like a wallflower?”
“Well… Not exactly. It’s just that most pretty girls like you probably wouldn’t study so hard.”
Gu Jingyan rolled her eyes. “That can only mean that you don’t know many girls like me.”
Yeah, of course. He only knew one girl who was this pretty.
Because of the teacher’s words, Gu Jingyan instantly became famous.
She was already being talked about because she was pretty. Now, everyone knew that Gu Jingyan was so capable too.
In the blink of an eye, Gu Jingyan became a prominent person. When she went out. Lu Beichen could still hear others saying, “I heard that Gu Jingyan has been invited to join the student council. They probably want to nominate her for president.”
“Wow, that’s impressive. Q University’s student council president… Then, she wouldn’t be an average person anymore.”
“That’s because she’s so capable.”
Boss Xu said, “Wow, it looks like our big beauty Gu is already gaining fans at top speed.”
Lu Beichen smiled and did not say anything. He heard another guy say, “Ha. If I can marry Gu Jingyan, I wouldn’t mind slogging it out in my next life.”
“Ha, then you’d better earn a billion yuan first. Otherwise, I doubt you’ll be able to marry her.”
“You’ll never know if you don’t try. No. I’ll serve her some drinks tonight. Which floor is her room at? I’ll give some hot water to her.”
“Forget it. There are plenty of guys lining up to give her things every day. If you want to go, you’ll have to join the queue.”
Lu Beichen’s eyes darkened. “What a joke. There are people giving Gu Jingyan drinks?”
Boss Xu shrugged. “Yeah. What did you think? It already started a few days ago.”
Lu Beichen scoffed coldly. “Seriously, attention-grabbing. Isn’t she tired of trouble?”
“This isn’t her fault either,” Boss Xu said. “The teacher’s publicity was too effective. On top of that, she is indeed very attractive.”
“Nothing to do with her? She only knows how to cause trouble. Seriously.” Lu Beichen said as he placed his hands in his pockets.
Just then, Gu Jingyan arrived.
Gu Jingyan entered their cla.s.s and called out to them. “Hey, let’s go and eat. What are you guys doing?”
Now, going to their cla.s.s was already a normal occurrence. In the beginning, she would be dragging them out. After a few times, she was now the one being surrounded by them as they left.
