80: Chapter 80 I could do it too!
As soon as Qin Shuang and Zhou Wenying walked into the teaching building, the students in the hallway swarmed them like sharks smelling blood.
"Senior Sister Qin Shuang! You look so good today, you're practically a fairy!" A junior student, who usually didn't even greet her, suddenly crowded over and affectionately linked her arm, her eyes fixed straight on the Cartier bracelet on her wrist.
This was something Zhou Wenying had dragged her to buy, saying it was a gift for her senior sister.
"Yeah, yeah, Senior Sister, you have such a great aura; no wonder you managed to get such an impressive boyfriend!" Another girl also squeezed over, her smile so sycophantic it gave people goosebumps.
Qin Shuang sneered inwardly, but maintained an elegant smile on her face: "Thank you, you're all exaggerating."
She remembered very clearly that just two days ago, this group of people was still whispering behind her back about her being "stuck up" and "pretentious," yet now they were practically dying to stick to her.
Zhou Wenying watched from the side, finding it amusing, and deliberately raised her voice: "Senior Sister, didn't Brother Jiang Jing say he was going to buy you that limited-edition Hermès? When are you going to pick it up?"
"Limited-edition Hermès?!" A chorus of gasps instantly sounded all around.
"Senior Sister, your boyfriend is so good to you!" A girl's eyes lit up, her tone filled with envy, jealousy, and hatred.
Qin Shuang knew that Zhou Wenying was helping her, and smiled faintly: "He is indeed very good to me."
"Shuangshuang, that 911 GT3 RS of yours is so cool! Can you let me take a ride?" A male student she wasn't very familiar with crowded up, his face full of smiles.
"Yeah, yeah, take us for a spin!" A few girls also chimed in, their eyes shining as if they had seen the God of Wealth.
Before Qin Shuang could answer, Zhou Wenying smilingly interjected: "Sorry, the car that Brother Jiang Jing gave can't just be used to give random people rides~"
Her tone was syrupy sweet, but the meaning behind her words was very clear—are you guys even worthy?
Everyone's expression stiffened, but they quickly put on smiles again, not daring to offend Zhou Wenying.
After all, she was the one who had first climbed up to a super-rich guy, and even Qin Shuang had been "brought" out by her.
"Wen Ying, why is your skin so good? Are you using some kind of luxury skincare products?" A girl crowded over, trying to curry favor with Zhou Wenying.
"Yeah, yeah, this dress of yours is the new Chanel model, right? It's so pretty!"
Zhou Wenying smiled without saying a word, just gently linking Qin Shuang's arm and walking forward; having seen through things quite clearly, she couldn't be bothered to bicker with these people.
Seeing that Qin Shuang had no interest in paying attention to them, someone finally couldn't hold back anymore.
A girl with a hot figure and exquisite makeup squeezed in front of Qin Shuang and spoke with affected intimacy: "Shuangshuang, we're all in the same department; you can't forget your sisters now that you've made it! How about introducing Jiang Jing to us sometime?"
As soon as she said this, the surroundings went quiet for a second.
Qin Shuang raised an eyebrow and looked at her with a smile that wasn't quite a smile: "Oh? You want to meet him?"
The girl nodded immediately, her eyes shining: "Yeah! I heard Jiang Jing is handsome, rich, and super generous; if you can drive a supercar, we definitely can too!"
This was just one step away from saying directly: "If you can be a kept woman, so can we!"
Before Qin Shuang could speak, Zhou Wenying let out a "pfft" of laughter, her gaze disdainful: "Sis, aren't you a bit too confident?"
The girl's face stiffened, but she quickly squeezed out a smile again: "Wen Ying, we're all classmates, we should help each other out, besides..." She glanced meaningfully at Qin Shuang, "If Shuangshuang can do it, we're not bad either."
Qin Shuang finally couldn't hold back and sneered: "Sure, then why don't you go try it yourself?"
Her tone was light, but the sarcasm in her words was heavy—did you think Jiang Jing would look at just anyone?
The girl's face turned green and white, but people around them had already started snickering.
[Laughing to death, she really thinks she's a fairy?]
[Exactly, Jiang Jing can look at Qin Shuang and Zhou Wenying because they are school beauties to begin with; where do some people get their confidence from?]
[Exactly, one has a super body, the other has an amazing aura; what does she have, her own sense of self-importance?]
[Tsk tsk, these days, everyone really wants to climb the social ladder.]
The girl was so ashamed she couldn't find a place to hide, and slunk back behind the crowd.
But her failure didn't stop the enthusiasm of the others; soon, someone else crowded up, changing tactics to curry favor with Qin Shuang—
"Shuangshuang, I heard Jiang Jing is a major shareholder of Tencent Group? Can you help me get an internal referral for an internship?"
"Yeah, yeah, our major is a perfect match!"
"Shuangshuang, if you open a company in the future, remember to bring us along!"
Qin Shuang looked at this group of people, feeling only amused inwardly.
—They used to ignore her, but now they were dying to grovel at her feet.
She smiled faintly: "We'll see if there's a chance."
After saying this, she took Zhou Wenying's hand and left amidst the envious gazes of the crowd.
After they had walked far away, Zhou Wenying gave a light hum: "Senior Sister, did you see that? These people were laughing at you behind your back yesterday, and today they can shamelessly come to suck up to you."
Qin Shuang nodded, her eyes a bit complex: "Yeah, it's so ironic."
Zhou Wenying hooked her arm with a grin: "But it doesn't matter, anyway we are 'on the same side' now, no matter how jealous they are, it's useless~"
Around the corner, they ran into Professor Li from their department.
Professor Li was a rigid person who never smiled during lectures, and many people complained about him in private—calling him a poker face.
However, the Professor Li they saw today seemed like a completely different person from his usual serious self.
"Student Qin Shuang, your last paper was written well, it had a lot of depth." Professor Li pushed up his glasses, his tone gentle, "If you are interested, I can recommend you to attend the XX academic conference."
Qin Shuang knew clearly that her paper-writing level had always been above average, and Professor Li had never praised her before.
"Thank you, Professor." She nodded politely.
Seeing this, Professor Li nodded with satisfaction, exchanged a few pleasantries with Zhou Wenying and Qin Shuang with a smile, and then left.
The two of them, Zhou Wenying and Qin Shuang, looked at each other and saw amusement in each other's eyes.
Just as they walked out of the teaching building, the campus forum had already exploded:
[Shocking! It's confirmed, Qin Shuang has climbed up to a super-rich guy, picked up by a supercar!]
[Zhou Wenying and Qin Shuang suspected of sharing a boyfriend, photos from the scene exposed!]
[The rich guys we missed out on all those years, is it too late to grovel now?]
The comment section was even more spectacular:
"Wasn't Qin Shuang quite stuck up before? How come she's also clinging to a rich guy now?"
"Laughing to death, what's with the pretending, who wouldn't suck up to money?"
"If I looked like her, I'd go fish for a rich husband too!"
Qin Shuang scrolled through her phone, the corners of her mouth slightly raised.
Those people who used to look down on her could now only hide behind their keyboards and type sourly.
She couldn't be bothered to pay attention to these people's sour words; as long as she was happy, that was all that mattered.
