Chapter 1269 - 1288: Ostracism
"It’s too expensive, I don’t want it." Fu Xinwu’s family was wealthy too, being the sole heir to the Fu Family in Imperial City. However, her relationship with her father wasn’t good at the moment, and she instead had a close relationship with the Huo Family. Her consumer mindset was influenced by the Huos.
She remembered all of Elder Leader Huo’s teachings!
"What’s there to be afraid of!" He Shasha kicked a small pebble as she walked, sending it skittering all the way to the school gates. "It’s just a lousy watch, barely worth over ten thousand yuan. I’m not that stingy."
Jiang Nanfei’s mouth twitched.
Once inside the school gates, familiar classmates were everywhere. Several girls, who were classmates and friendly with He Shasha, came up eagerly chattering and casting furtive glances at both Jiang Nanfei and Fu Xinwu.
The one whose gaze was the most pronounced was the strikingly featured Xun Ling, filled with jealousy, disdain, and mockery... She had been observing Jiang Nanfei in secret for some time. Besides feeling discontented, she was predominantly envious. She, too, was quite attractive and her academic performance wasn’t bad—otherwise, she wouldn’t have been able to get into university.
But ever since she arrived at school, all she heard about was Jiang Nanfei.
The boys were forever singing her praises, and wherever she went, she could hear people discussing how beautiful, how outstanding Jiang Nanfei was. Her ears practically formed calluses from all the chatter, causing her to be incredibly scornful. Relying on her looks to flaunt herself everywhere, she really overestimated herself.
Xun Ling’s gaze made Jiang Nanfei slightly uncomfortable, and she even found herself subtly squeezed to the edge of her own standing spot. But, considering it was He Shasha’s classmate, she held her peace.
"Oh my gosh! Sha Sha, your watch is so nice." A sharp-eyed classmate exclaimed, holding up He Shasha’s wrist and praising it endlessly.
