Chapter 894 Climbing the Stairs and Taking the Elevator

Previously, Tang Jiayun led them to dislike Qiao Nan and even insisted that they ignored Qiao Nan. Looking at how affectionate she was to Qiao Nan today, Yu Xiaoxiao and Lü Yan almost could not recognize if this was the Tang Jiayun that could not see eye to eye with Qiao Nan previously.

“Tell me, what is happening?” Lü Yan could not help but nudge Yu Xiaoxiao’s arms.

Qiao Nan had already told us that she would inform the school that she was moving out of the dormitory due to personal reasons. She would not implicate the three of them. Given Tang Jiayun’s character, she would certainly not worry so much. Instead, she could not wait for Qiao Nan to leave as soon as possible.

Previously, when they attended two social events, a few seniors that Tang Jiayun looked up to had been asking about Qiao Nan. They even requested Tang Jiayun to pa.s.s messages to Qiao Nan. Tang Jiayun not only rejected but also expressed that she was not close to Qiao Nan and she was uncertain if there was such a student in the cla.s.s.

Tang Jiayun washed her hands off all the matters that were related to Qiao Nan. Now that Qiao Nan was going to move out, shouldn’t Tang Jiayun feel happy? When those seniors made such requests in the future, Tang Jiayun would not feel so embarra.s.sed to decline them.

It should be a positive matter that Qiao Nan was moving out. Who would have known that at this juncture, Tang Jiayun would fawn greatly on Qiao Nan. She was even trying to stop Qiao Nan from leaving.

Tang Jiayun and Lü Yan wrecked the brains that admitted them to Peking University for a long time but could not figure out the current situation and what Tang Jiayun was trying to do.

Tang Jiayun was the one who took the lead to ostracize Qiao Nan. She was also the one who was trying to gain Qiao Nan’s favor now. Would there be a situation in the future whereby after Tang Jiayun appeased Qiao Nan to stay in the dormitory, she would then badmouth the two of them in front of Qiao Nan so that Qiao Nan would believe that they were the ones who targeted her instead of Tang Jiayun, and Tang Jiayun was just a follower?

If that was truly the case, they would be taking the blame regardless of what happened.

This Tang Jiayun was too mean!

At the thought of all these, Yu Xiaoxiao and Lü Yan were very anxious. They were afraid that Qiao Nan would be tricked by Tang Jiayun and as such, their reputations would be ruined.

“Thank you, but there is no need. I have already finished moving.” Qiao Nan lifted her hands and let go of Tang Jiayun. She refused to let Tang Jiayun touch her belongings. One who is unaccountably solicitous is likely to be harboring evil intentions. “As for the issue regarding the dormitory, the paperwork has already been settled. If I change my mind now, I will have to trouble the teachers one more time. Forget it.”

Tang Jiayun, jointly with Yu Xiaoxiao and Lü Yan, ignored her and gave her psychological abuse. In fact, Qiao Nan was not bothered and did not take it to heart at all. Qiao Nan wanted to move out because of Tang Jiayun’s character. Tang Jiayun appeared to be ignoring Qiao Nan on the surface but she would torture her whenever there was a chance.

Qiao Nan expressed that she wanted to focus on her studies and strive for progress. She could not endure this kind of torture from Tang Jiayun.

All of a sudden, Tang Jiayun was so affectionate to her. Qiao Nan was taken aback greatly and she could not wait to leave. “Cla.s.smate Tang Jiayun, can I trouble you to move away? You’re blocking my way.”

There was a flicker in Tang Jiayun’s eyes as soon as she heard Qiao Nan mentioned that the paperwork of changing the dormitory had been settled.

The changing of dormitory was a mundane and common matter. However, given the nature of such matters, it was, in fact, quite c.u.mbersome to settle.

Why was that so?

The teachers had other matters to attend to. Who would be willing to waste their time on such a mundane matter?

Even if the school had agreed to the change in dormitory, they would certainly take some time to settle it.

It was just the school’s welcome ceremony today and lessons had not even officially begun. So, Qiao Nan must have just informed the teachers that she wanted to change dormitory. Despite this, the administration matters had been resolved immediately. It seemed that the owner of that Mercedes-Benz car downstairs not only had power but also a strong interpersonal network in a place such as the capital.

Qiao Nan was just a country b.u.mpkin, yet she was so blessed. Her means were formidable. How did she manage to find herself such a boyfriend? Qiao Nan said that she was engaged. Could this individual downstairs be Qiao Nan’s fiancé?

Although Tang Jiayun had wanted to plead Qiao Nan to let her ‘widen her horizons’, at the thought of this, Tang Jiayun felt so jealous when she looked at Qiao Nan.

She was obviously better than Qiao Nan. She also had a way of building interpersonal relations.h.i.+ps. Why couldn’t she find a fiancé that was so outstanding?

“Qiao Nan, is that person downstairs your fiancé?” Tang Jiayun could not help asking. “He is the one who helped you make arrangements to move out of the dormitory? Your fiancé is so capable. He is driving a Mercedes-Benz car despite being so young. He also managed to let you move out of the dormitory so soon. Your fiancé is brilliant and dotes on you very much.”

Tang Jiayun sang many praises. She only did not ask what this fiancé of Qiao Nan did and how capable or formidable his family was.

Qiao Nan tugged the corners of her lips. It was no wonder Tang Jiayun became so affectionate. So, Tang Jiayun was so experienced in socializing that she had found an avenue in this. She thought that Qiao Nan had found someone who had a formidable background. “You have misunderstood. I have a fiancé but he is not the owner of the Mercedes-Benz car downstairs. This is my friend’s cousin.”

The one who came to fetch Qiao Nan and s.h.i.+ Qing this time was the son of s.h.i.+ Qing’s uncle, Feng Meng.

“Oh…” Tang Jiayun was a little disappointed but she was also overjoyed. “Which cla.s.smate of yours? Is she from our cla.s.s?” Since it did not have anything to do with Qiao Nan, then that was great.

Tang Jiayun was so practical and realistic that she let go of Qiao Nan. She was no longer helping Qiao Nan carry the latter’s belongings. She was only focused on finding out more information about this ‘friend’. “We are all from the same cla.s.s. It is fate that brought us together from various faraway places. Introduce him to us, please? We can often go out to have fun together in the future.”

Yu Xiaoxiao and Lü Yan heaved sighs of relief. Tang Jiayun’s target was the sister of the Mercedes-Benz car’s owner and not Qiao Nan.

At the point when they heard that the owner of the Mercedes-Benz car was possibly Qiao Nan’s fiancé and he had already helped Qiao Nan settle all the paperwork, even Yu Xiaoxiao and Lü Yan realized that they had ‘followed’ the wrong person, let alone Tang Jiayun.

They were following Tang Jiayun’s lead as they wanted to get to know some people and blend into the life in Peking University as soon as possible. They could then pull strings and get into a club of their choice as well as take on a small leaders.h.i.+p role. When the final school term came, they could then receive a beautiful report card.

Having said all that countless times, the ultimate reason that they wanted to have a beautiful report card was to find a good job upon graduation and stepping into society.

As such, the efforts that they put in now to follow Tang Jiayun was just the starting point of the journey to their future. It was similar to climbing the stairs. They had just skipped the first floor and landed on the second one.

On the contrary, if they had gotten close to Qiao Nan, that would be akin to taking the elevator. With the press of a b.u.t.ton, they could comfortably reach the top floor of the building just at the sound of a beep!

If they could reach the top floor of the building directly, who would still care about Tang Jiayun, this ‘second floor’?

After Qiao Nan’s denial, Yu Xiaoxiao and Lü Yan felt both relieved and glad. Their disappointment had been reduced to half. They were already on bad terms with Qiao Nan. Even if they were as thick-skinned as Tang Jiayun to try to mend the relations.h.i.+p, Qiao Nan might not be agreeable.
