Chapter 148 Huang Ying’s Preaching
"Huang Ying, do you have a boyfriend?"
Yang Xiaoxiu was somewhat surprised, as evidently the boyfriend Huang Ying mentioned was already a successful individual in society, otherwise, he wouldn’t be qualified to attend a conference at such a high-end hotel.
But then she thought of their schoolmate and couldn’t help but say, "So you and Wang Likai are..."
"Wang Likai isn’t my boyfriend, he’s just pursuing me."
Huang Ying crossed her arms, looking indifferent: "Those little things he gave me wouldn’t add up to more than a few thousand, while my boyfriend bought me this Longines watch for over ten thousand. How can there be any comparison?"
Upon hearing this, Yang Xiaoxiu was quite surprised, as she often saw Huang Ying and Wang Likai being close at school, even to the point of thinking they were together. To Yang Xiaoxiu’s surprise, Huang Ying didn’t seem to care much about him at all.
Yang Xiaoxiu secretly shook her head and couldn’t help but glance toward the elevator in the hotel lobby, feeling curious.
Though she and Huang Ying had different worldviews, she also understood the importance of influential connections and having a patron.
In this era, relying solely on hard work is far from enough.
If hard work truly were the shortcut to success, this shortcut might not be available to her.
Right now, all she had left was the hope that her efforts would be her only chance, nothing else.
However, if she were fortunate enough to be recognized by an influential person, she would try every means possible to seize the opportunity.
