Chapter 260 Su Xiaoxiao is here too?
"Hahaha!" Qin Shuang couldn't help but laugh, wrapping her arm around Xinxin's shoulder. "I get it, I totally get it! Who could blame you when that guy is so handsome and generous with his money? We were pretty much the same way when we fell for him back then."
Zhou Wenying covered her mouth and chuckled, a look of reminiscence in her eyes.
While chatting and laughing, the car arrived at Rongcheng University. Today was the peak of freshman registration, and the campus was teeming with people, filled with vitality and noise.
Zhou Wenying and Qin Shuang, familiar with the campus, led Xinxin to the registration point for her department.
While waiting in line to process the paperwork, Xinxin looked at the students around her, most of whom were accompanied by their parents. She whispered to Zhou Wenying and Qin Shuang, "Sister Wen Ying, Sister Qin Shuang, I... I don't want to live in the school dormitory. I want to live in the manor with everyone. Is that okay?"
Upon hearing this, Zhou Wenying immediately understood the young girl's intentions; she wanted to be closer to Jiang Jing.
Her eyes darted around, and she came up with an idea. "That's easy. We can help you apply for off-campus housing. As for the reason... just say you're already interning at Xingchen Technology and need to live near the company for the commute."
"Xingchen Technology?" Xinxin widened her eyes. "Can... can I really intern there?"
Qin Shuang patted her shoulder, full of confidence. "Don't worry, it's just a matter of one phone call from Sister Jiang Yan. Let's go get it done now."
They arrived at the office handling off-campus housing applications.
The person in charge of verification was a somewhat rigid middle-aged female teacher wearing glasses.
When she heard Zhou Wenying say that Xinxin was applying for off-campus housing because she was interning at Xingchen Technology, she pushed up her glasses, her face showing undisguised skepticism and disdain.
"Xingchen Technology? An internship?" The teacher said with a sarcastic tone. "Student, you should at least prepare a decent lie, right?"
"What kind of place do you think Xingchen Technology is? It's a key national enterprise. Countless students from prestigious universities break their heads trying to get in. And you, a freshman who hasn't even started classes yet, want to intern there?"
"Doing what? They wouldn't even trust you to pour tea because you lack experience. A certificate from some trash company won't work here. We verify the authenticity of everything!"
She clearly took Zhou Wenying and the others for frivolous students looking for an excuse to move out and play.
Zhou Wenying was irritated by the woman's attitude, but she maintained her composure. She gave a cold laugh and said in a calm tone, "Teacher, please watch your language. We are certain it is Xingchen Technology, and we can provide the internship certificate immediately."
The teacher was momentarily stunned by Zhou Wenying's presence, but then she became even more skeptical and sneered, "Oh, you've got quite the attitude!"
"Fine, show me the certificate. I'd like to see what this is all about."
Zhou Wenying didn't waste any more words with her. She took out her phone, called Jiang Yan, and briefly explained the situation.
In less than ten minutes, an electronic version of the internship certificate, stamped with the bright red seal of Xingchen Technology, was sent to Zhou Wenying's phone.
Zhou Wenying held the phone screen directly in front of the teacher and said coldly, "Teacher, please verify it!"
The teacher leaned in to look. When she saw the thunderous seal of "Xingchen Technology" and the words "President's Office" and "Jiang Yan," her expression changed instantly!
As a university administrator, she naturally knew the weight of Xingchen Technology today and the status of the name Jiang Yan in the Rong City business world.
Her expression shifted from skepticism to shock, and finally, it was filled with a sheepish smile.
"So it really is true... Oh my, look at me..."
"A misunderstanding, it's all a misunderstanding! Student Lin Yuxin is truly young and promising! To be interning at Xingchen Technology before even starting school—your future is limitless! Limitless!"
Her attitude did a 180-degree turn. She began processing the paperwork efficiently, constantly flattering them: "Students, you know CEO Jiang? That's truly amazing! If you need anything at school in the future, just come to me!"
Soon, the off-campus housing procedures were successfully completed.
Holding the freshly issued application approval form, Xinxin was overjoyed. She took Zhou Wenying and Qin Shuang by the hands and said, "Sister Wen Ying, Sister Qin Shuang, thank you so much!"
Zhou Wenying waved her hand nonchalantly. "What are you thanking us for? We're family, don't be so polite!"
Qin Shuang also laughed. "Alright, registration is done, and housing is sorted. Come on, your big sisters will take you out to play, and we'll also finish the task Brother Jing assigned us."
The three of them left hand in hand.
The female teacher watched their departing figures, her face full of envy.
She muttered, "Are students these days... all this impressive?"
Because it wouldn't be convenient for Xinxin to commute to school from the manor, Jiang Jing asked Zhou Wenying to buy a car for her.
Zhou Wenying still quite enjoyed the feeling of spending money like water.
At first, Xinxin refused to accept it, until the two women said it was Jiang Jing's idea, explaining that it would make commuting to school easier for her.
Only then did Xinxin accept this extremely precious gift.
Peace didn't last long; a few days later, Jiang Jing received another call. It was from Su Xiaoxiao, whom he hadn't seen in a long time.
On the phone, Su Xiaoxiao's voice was filled with excitement. "Jiang Jing, Mom and I have arrived in Rong City! We just got off the high-speed train!"
Jiang Jing was stunned. "Xiaoxiao? Why did you and Director Mother come over so suddenly? You should have told me in advance so I could have picked you up."
Jiang Jing couldn't help but complain internally; why does everyone like to launch surprise attacks?
"Hehe, we wanted to surprise you." Su Xiaoxiao said in a cheerful tone. "We saw your news, and we know you must be a busy person now, so Mom said we should just come visit you instead of taking up your time."
Jiang Jing was left speechless, half-laughing and half-crying. So, having only had a few days of peace, Jiang Jing drove to the station once again.
At the station exit, he quickly spotted Su Xiaoxiao carrying simple luggage, along with the gentle, elegant middle-aged woman beside her.
"Jiang Jing, over here!" Su Xiaoxiao waved happily when she saw Jiang Jing.
"Auntie, Xiaoxiao, you must be tired from the trip." Jiang Jing stepped forward, took the luggage from their hands, and asked Director Mother with concern, "Your health has only just recovered, isn't long-distance travel too exhausting for you?"
Director Mother looked at the young man before her, who was even more handsome and upright than on television. A kind and gratified smile appeared on her face. "It's not tiring, not tiring at all. Xiaoxiao is always talking about you, so we thought we'd come and see for ourselves."
After getting them into the car, Jiang Jing said while driving, "Auntie, since you're here, you should stay in Rong City for a few days and enjoy yourselves."
"As it happens, I was planning to buy a car and a house for Xiaoxiao in Rong City, so she'll have a place to stay whenever she visits in the future."
Upon hearing this, Su Xiaoxiao immediately shook her head like a rattle-drum. "No, no! Jiang Jing, you really don't have to!"
"I still don't know how long it will take me to pay back the money you gave for Mom's medical treatment; how could I accept something so valuable from you again!"
Director Mother also quickly waved her hand. "That won't do, Jiang Jing. You've already helped us too much. A house and a car are too extravagant!"
Jiang Jing, however, spoke firmly. "Auntie, Xiaoxiao, listen to me."
"This money really doesn't mean much to me. Besides, since Xiaoxiao is with me, I naturally cannot treat her poorly. It's settled, so please don't refuse."
In truth, this was also decided by Jiang Jing after seeing their data.
After all, with favorability ratings that never drop and the ability to remain devoted, they are worth it.
