Chapter 109: Their Bottom Line is That They Have No Bottom Line
TL: YYang
“The comments section was actually telling the truth! I saw that silver G-Wagen with my own eyes this afternoon!”
“I saw it too, I saw it too! That car is so cool!”
“Saw it +1”
“I’m numb. We’re both university students, but he uses a 3-million-yuan G-Wagen for transportation, while I can only ride a 300-yuan bicycle.”
“Don’t be discouraged, brother. At least you have one advantage.”
“What advantage?”
“When there’s a traffic jam, he has to wait in line obediently, while you can weave through freely.”
“…”
“Everyone, does anyone know him?”
“He’s from the Business School, Class of ’20, International Trade, Section 2. I saw the photo. Damn, he’s tall and handsome!”
“Holy crap, you guys dug up his photo that fast?”
“Forget the photo. His height, weight, how many girlfriends he’s had, his WeChat ID, we have it all.”
“Sister, private message me.”
“What sister? I’m a guy!”
“Why are you, a guy, investigating his information?”
“None of your business!”
“Excuse me, bro, can you private message me?”
“Private message me one…”
“Private message me one…”
“…”
After the G-Wagen drove onto the Foreign Economics College campus, many grade-level and class group chats were abuzz with discussion. Investing 10 million in a startup base, driving a 3-million-yuan G-Wagen, being tall and handsome, and having a net worth of at least a hundred million.
What girl wouldn’t be smitten by these credentials?
Usually, they could only see this kind of guy in Kuaiyin short videos, but now one had appeared in real life right beside them.
Forget the girls, even several guys who were into sword-fighting were getting restless.
Everyone often talked about crossing social classes, but in a country of 1.4 billion people, how many could actually achieve financial freedom?
By working?
Even after graduation, no matter how strong their work ability was, after struggling for twenty years, they would at best be high-level employees.
What’s more, for a university like the Foreign Economics College, the fact that they were studying there meant their grades were average to begin with. So, to truly achieve a class leap, latching onto a tycoon was undoubtedly the most convenient path.
In their freshman year, some girls might not have been so realistic, but starting from their sophomore year, especially for juniors and seniors facing internships and job hunting, they had already stepped into society.
When they attended campus recruitment and various job fairs and saw that the starting salaries for recent graduates were only 3K-5K, their longing for a wealthy life would become even stronger.
If Shen Yuan were a fifty or sixty-year-old man, perhaps many girls would hesitate. But the key was that Shen Yuan was a 21-year-old guy, and he was tall and handsome. Was there even a need to think?
Just go for it!
Whether this top-tier handsome and rich guy would be interested in them or not, they had to at least try!
Not only were many group chats discussing this topic, but the two “little fairies” in Fang Minhui and Chen Ling’s dorm were also talking about it.
“Have you heard? The information revealed on the official account is true. A Mercedes G-Wagen really drove in this afternoon.”
The speaker was Zhuang Yueyue. She lowered her voice and said to Zhu Qiaofeng.
The two of them were not in the same class as Chen Ling, and their relationship was very poor. They usually ate and went shopping in pairs, and even if they ran into each other on campus, they wouldn’t greet each other.
Although Fang Minhui wasn’t in the dorm right now, Chen Ling was still there, and she didn’t want Chen Ling to hear.
“You’re just finding out now? I’ve already found his WeChat ID.”
A faint smile hung on the corners of Zhu Qiaofeng’s mouth.
Zhu Qiaofeng was the girl who played the double standard game perfectly, restricting her roommates’ schedules and behaviors in every way, yet failing to adhere to them herself. She was also the person Chen Ling and Fang Minhui disliked the most.
Zhuang Yueyue was a bit surprised. “You’re that fast?”
Zhu Qiaofeng’s lips curved up. “If you’re not proactive in chasing rich guys, there’s something wrong with your brain.”
Zhuang Yueyue was a bit puzzled after hearing this. “Don’t you have a boyfriend?”
Zhu Qiaofeng said nonchalantly, “So what if I have a boyfriend? If he really takes a liking to me, I’ll just kick him to the curb.”
Zhuang Yueyue’s mouth twitched. But she knew her friend’s character. Forget a top-tier handsome and rich guy like this, even if someone with better conditions than her current boyfriend appeared, Zhu Qiaofeng would kick her current boyfriend to the curb without hesitation.
The two of them couldn’t help but raise their voices as they chatted. Chen Ling, who was reading a BL novel on her bed, heard them and sneered disdainfully, but she didn’t say anything.
Their relationship had long been like that of strangers. Taking the initiative to strike up a conversation was out of the question.
Zhu Qiaofeng suddenly sighed again. “But he still hasn’t accepted my WeChat request.”
“Huh? Did you add the wrong one?”
“I don’t think so…”
Zhu Qiaofeng thought for a moment. She had just spent 10 yuan to buy it from someone in a group chat. Could it be fake?
Zhuang Yueyue reminded her, “Isn’t Shen Yuan in Class 2? The same class as Chen Ling and Fang Minhui. Why don’t you ask them?”
Zhu Qiaofeng was in a bit of a dilemma. “My relationship with them is already like that. Why don’t you go and ask for me?”
“Uh…”
Zhuang Yueyue suddenly felt that her question was really unnecessary. But if your relationship with them is bad, mine isn’t much better.
But after thinking about it, she was also a bit curious about this Shen Yuan, so she raised her voice and asked Chen Ling on the bed, “Chen Ling, there’s a guy named Shen Yuan in your class, right? Are you familiar with him?”
Chen Ling smiled playfully. “Yeah, I am. What’s up?”
“What’s he like? Is he easy to get along with?”
Zhuang Yueyue asked again.
Chen Ling glanced at them disdainfully. “You two, just forget it. He wouldn’t be interested in you.”
Chen Ling was annoyed by these two roommates, especially the hypocritical Zhu Qiaofeng.
‘Why would Shen Yuan be interested in you?’
‘Look at your cup size. Do you have a 36D like Minhui?’
‘And you dare to go after Shen Yuan?’
‘And you say you’ll kick your boyfriend to the curb? How ridiculous. I wonder if the boyfriend you talk to on the phone every night would vomit blood if he heard that.’
‘He’s really had eight lifetimes of bad luck to have a girlfriend like you!’
Zhu Qiaofeng was a bit unhappy hearing Chen Ling’s sarcasm. “How do you know he wouldn’t be interested? He’s never met me before.”
Chen Ling snorted softly. “Then go and meet him yourself. See if he even bothers to talk to you.”
After saying that, Chen Ling turned over to face the wall, too lazy to argue with these two anymore.
Chen Ling didn’t even want to tell them that Minhui was actually Shen Yuan’s girlfriend, and that the two Prada bags were bought for Minhui by Shen Yuan.
They didn’t deserve to know!
Zhu Qiaofeng couldn’t help but roll her eyes. ‘What kind of person is this? Isn’t it natural to help a roommate set up a connection?’
‘It’s like I’m asking for your life.’
‘Serves you right for being single!’
After a while, Zhu Qiaofeng calmed down and sent another friend request, this time including her class and name.
“Shen Yuan, I’m Zhu Qiaofeng from the Business School, Class of ’20, Human Resource Management, Section 1. Can we get to know each other?”
It wasn’t just Chen Ling’s dorm; other female dorms at the Foreign Economics College were discussing this topic. Some people even went to find Fu Yingzi.
Fu Yingzi was using her three-year-old laptop to monitor the dynamics on the official account and Weibo, while also lurking in various group chats to gather first-hand intelligence to report to Shen Yuan at any time.
Speaking of which, she was actually the first person to react and the first to get in touch with Shen Yuan.
This was thanks to her being a student council officer in the Youth League Committee, and the startup base project happened to be followed up by the Youth League Committee, so she had a head start.
Although she didn’t end up as Shen Yuan’s girlfriend, she at least became his subordinate.
After the G-Wagen drove onto campus, public opinion immediately shifted. At the same time, people were constantly digging up Shen Yuan’s personal information. Some even found out through the Youth League Committee that Fu Yingzi was liaising with Shen Yuan about the startup base.
So just now, her roommate had asked her if she could arrange a meeting, maybe for a cup of coffee or a meal.
But Fu Yingzi knew that Shen Yuan had picky tastes, and it would probably take someone of Fang Minhui’s level. So she just made some excuses to brush them off.
Besides, she was just Shen Yuan’s secretary, not a eunuch helping him choose concubines. How could she introduce people for such a thing?
“Sister Yingzi, hello there! What are you doing?”
Just then, the ajar dorm room door was pushed open, and a tall, slender girl with delicate features walked in.
Fu Yingzi turned her head and saw that it was her junior, Long Jinghan. Junior Long was also a member of her broadcasting station.
“What’s up?”
Fu Yingzi asked, “Is there a problem at the broadcasting station?”
Fu Yingzi would be a senior in the second half of the year, and she would have to step down as the head of the broadcasting station. Long Jinghan was the candidate she had recommended to the Youth League Committee leaders to be the next head.
Recently, she had been busy helping Shen Yuan, so now, most of the major and minor affairs of the broadcasting station were being handled by this junior.
“No, Sister Yingzi, everything is fine at the broadcasting station.”
Long Jinghan moved closer to Fu Yingzi and said in a cloying voice, “I missed you, so I came to see you.”
Fu Yingzi looked up at her and said with a smile, “If you have something to say, just say it. There’s no one else here.”
Long Jinghan pursed her rosy lips, leaned in, and whispered, “You’re liaising with Shen Yuan about the startup base now, right? Can you introduce us?”
Fu Yingzi smiled knowingly. As expected, Long Jinghan had come for this. She wasn’t surprised, because Long Jinghan had a similar personality to her; they were both ambitious girls. She had only ended up at the Foreign Economics College because she had a fever during the college entrance exam and didn’t perform well, and she wasn’t willing to repeat a year.
Fu Yingzi subconsciously sized her up. She was slightly shorter than herself, but still 168 cm. She was curvy where she needed to be and slender where she needed to be. Her features were also very delicate. She was actually very suit…
‘No, no…’
Fu Yingzi was slightly taken aback. When she came to her senses, she wanted to slap herself. She had just said she wasn’t a eunuch selecting concubines, so how did she get into character so quickly?
‘I…’
‘I really didn’t mean to…’
At this moment, in the male dorm 503 of the Foreign Economics College.
Shen Yuan was watching his Prestige Value soar through the panel. In just over half an hour, it had shot up from 0 to 2300.
According to the system’s rewards, he could get a lottery draw for every 500 Prestige Value points. But just then, he noticed his phone in his pocket kept vibrating. So he had to take it out to see what was going on.
When he opened it, he was stunned.
There were suddenly dozens of girls adding him on WeChat. Some were direct adds, while others included their names.
“Senior, I’m Wu Miaozhen from the School of Foreign Languages, a sophomore in Spanish. Can we get to know each other?”
“Hello, junior. I’m Zhai Changling, a senior from the School of Physical Education. Let’s go for a run or play ball sometime.”
“Shen Yuan, I’m Zhu Qiaofeng from the Business School, Class of ’20, Human Resource Management, Section 1. Can we get to know each other?”
These were relatively normal. Below, there were some who directly revealed their measurements and special talents.
“Senior, do you have a girlfriend? I’m a 36D, you know. You can get to know me.”
“Hello, Shen Yuan. Are you looking for a girlfriend? I’ve studied ballet. Add me, and I can send you a video to see, haha.”
“Height 168, bust 85, waist 63cm, hips 80cm. Please add me.”
“…”
Shen Yuan was a bit shocked. The bottom line of these girls at the Foreign Economics College was even lower than he had imagined. It seemed there were quite a few girls who wanted to take a shortcut!
However, Shen Yuan was picky now, and photos were highly edited. He certainly wouldn’t make a move without seeing them in person.
Shen Yuan continued to scroll down and found that there were even a few guys who had sent him friend requests.
“…”
When Shen Yuan saw these add requests, he was first stunned, then so angry he wanted to curse.
‘Stupid fucking faggots, get lost!’
‘You bunch of perverts!’
‘Go to hell!’
‘I don’t know which idiot leaked my WeChat ID. Leaking my height and weight is one thing, but is a WeChat ID something you can just leak?’
Shen Yuan immediately opened his friend permissions and turned off all the options under “Ways to Add Me.”
There was no way he was letting them take a shortcut.
They all had to go through the proper procedure!
