Lin Jie had a face full of disdain. “Mengqing, you’re really kind. That’s not a rumor at all but the truth. Look at Qiao Xi, she doesn’t even dare to say anything. She must be tacitly agreeing to it!”
Yao Mengqing pretended to be kind and said, “Xi Xi, don’t blame Ah Jie. He’s just too straightforward… If you’re not willing to talk about this, then I won’t ask you any further.
“Ah Jie and I will pretend not to know about this.”
Qiao Xi sneered. These words were so magnanimous!
Pretending not to know about this matter meant that it did exist. It meant that Qiao Xi had indeed used the back door. Seemingly for Qiao Xi’s sake, Yao Mengqing said she would forget about it, making her seem gentle and considerate.
Qiao Xi asked casually, “Who did you hear it from?”
Yao Mengqing still said gently, “Xi Xi, they’re just rumors from the students in the university. Don’t take them to heart. We all know that you worked hard to enter Li City University. That’s enough. With Ah Zheng around, you won’t be fired.”
“I’m afraid the two of you are mistaken.” Qiao Xi raised her eyes, and her gaze was filled with ridicule. She was already tired of looking at Yao Mengqing’s hypocritical face.
“I don’t know where you heard the rumors, Miss Yao, but it seems you haven’t found out that the person who’s removed from Li City University isn’t me.”
The smile on Yao Mengqing’s face vanished instantly.
Qiao Xi slowly said, “I was the champion of the International Real-time Translation Competition for five consecutive years and received the top international design award. That’s why the previous chancellor of Li City University specially recruited me into this university. At that time, more than ten famous universities in the country and abroad had extended invitations to me.
“But I’m from Li City, so I chose Li University in the end.”
Yao Mengqing’s expression changed. She was specially recruited?
The top international design award? And the champion of the International Real-time Translation Competition?
She blurted out, “Xi Xi, you can’t make up countless lies one after another. Even if you didn’t take the college entrance examination, I wouldn’t look down on you…”
“Why does Miss Yao think that I’m lying? Could it be that you think I’m not worthy of being the champion and receiving the design award?”
Qiao Xi smiled meaningfully and said, “Miss Yao, you’ll never be able to catch up to my accomplishments. It’s understandable that you find it difficult to believe.”
Yao Mengqing immediately choked. She felt like a huge rock was pressing on her heart.
Qiao Xi’s accomplishments would forever be beyond her reach?
This b*tch dared to mock her?
Yao Mengqing looked at Lin Jie pleadingly. Lin Jie snorted. “More than ten famous universities invited you to join them? Don’t lie!”
“If you think I’m lying to you, you can go and check. Young Master Lin, you should have that ability. Among the more than ten famous universities, one of them is the one Miss Yao wanted to enter back then but failed.”
Qiao Xi’s lips curled up.
Yao Mengqing was embarrassed and bit her lip.
Qiao Xi’s brows raised. “Young Master Lin, if you still don’t believe me, do you want me to help you investigate? Right, I also want to ask which university you graduated from? I wonder if you have the qualifications to speak to me?”
…
The atmosphere became awkward.
Lin Jie was uneducated. Although he had gone to a decent university, it was only because his family had spent a fortune on him. If he had relied on his own strength, he would not have been able to enter a university.
Seeing that the two of them were silent, Qiao Xi spoke first, “Young Master Lin, aren’t you embarrassed for not saying anything? Let me remind you not to spread rumors in the future. Wang Qing, who spread rumors before this, has already been expelled. Could it be that you haven’t heard about it?”
Lin Jie’s face turned green. He wanted to retort, but he was so angry that he could not say anything.
He was silent for a long time before he slowly stood up. He was strong and calm. “Mengqing and I are just reminding you not to throw Ah Zheng’s reputation around. Since you don’t appreciate our gesture, then forget it! Mengqing, let’s go!”
Yao Mengqing smiled helplessly. “Xi Xi, Ah Jie is doing this for Ah Zheng’s sake. He’s afraid that it won’t be good for Ah Zheng’s reputation. Since the misunderstanding has been resolved, don’t be angry anymore… I-I’ll leave with Ah Jie!”
She followed closely behind and was about to leave with Lin Jie.
Qiao Xi smiled lightly. Were they in such a rush to leave because they were afraid she would look for trouble?
“Song Shijing,” Gu Zheng suddenly said.
Song Shijing walked over immediately and stopped them.. He said coldly, “I’m sorry, but you can’t leave yet.”
