Chapter 439: Her Arguing Potential

Huo Siyu raised her eyebrows slightly.

She had thought that even if Beauty Yu’s roommate was from the capital, she was just an ordinary person. She did not expect her to be in such a serious family conflict.

She dared to bet that the deaths of Chu Xiaohuan’s parents and Eldest Uncle and Eldest Aunt were definitely related to this woman and her mother.

She had no parents, and her uncle and auntie were no longer around. She only had a pair of aged grandparents at home. Moreover, the person her grandparents favored might not be her either…

What a pitiful person.

Of course, Huo Siyu simply thought that. She did not have much sympathy for her.

Who didn’t have any difficulties in their lives?

She was not the kind of person who would poke her nose into other people’s business.

Even she thought so, let alone Beauty Yu.

What Huo Siyu didn’t know was that Yan Jinyu wasn’t sure if she would interfere in this matter yet.

Yan Jinyu felt that if the truth was what she thought, she might really interfere.

“We already said that we’re family. Why are you still talking about repaying us? You’re treating us like outsiders now. You’re the heir of the Chu Family. The company is yours. After you graduate, it will be handed to you. Before that, my mother will guard it for you. You can go to school in peace.”

“Since you aren’t short of money, I’ll take back my card. If you need money, remember to call me, okay?”

“Yes, I will. After all, Aunt has been in charge of the Chu Corporation for so many years. Almost all the money we earned is in Aunt’s hands. My grandparents and I don’t have any money, so it’s only right for us to ask Aunt for it.” Chu Xiaohuan smiled as if she was only narrating this fact and had no other intentions.

The woman looked at her deeply and then chuckled. “That’s indeed the case.”

“Hello, Cousin Chu!” Qin Xuan greeted her.

Her tone was neither familiar nor distant.

Before this woman could reply, Qin Xuan said, “So my new roommate is the heir of the Chu Family. I only found out now. The outside world says that Aunt Chu is the head of the Chu Family. We juniors have always thought that Aunt Chu is the head of the Chu Family.”

She looked at Chu Xiaohuan, “Xiaohuan, I didn’t expect you to be from the Chu Family. I’ve seen Aunt Chu and Cousin Chu in the past, but I’ve never heard that the Chu Family has an heir. I’m really ashamed that I didn’t know.”

Xiaohuan?

Chu Xiaohuan looked at her.

She met her smiling eyes.

She had been calling her “Schoolmate Chu Xiaohuan” just now, but now, she was calling her “Xiaohuan”.

Why?

The woman frowned slightly at her. “You are?”

“Cousin Chu, don’t you remember me? I’m Qin Xuan. I’m from the Qin Family. Although I’m only from a side branch of the Qin Family, because I often followed Grandfather to the main family to play in my early years, I have a good relationship with the Qin Family’s cousins. You were mostly present when my cousins and friends gathered, so I’ve seen you a few times.”

The woman frowned without a trace when she heard that she was from the Qin Family. Then, she smiled, “So you’re Sister Xuan from the Qin Family. You’ve already grown up and you’ve changed drastically. I actually didn’t recognize you for a moment. I’m good friends with your cousin. Don’t call me ‘Cousin Chu’. It makes us look distant. Just call me Sister Yiran.”

“That’s not appropriate. I’ll call you Cousin Chu. Although our family doesn’t have much of a relationship with the Chu Family, seriously speaking, compared to Aunt Chu, we’re closer to the Chu Family. It’s more appropriate for me to follow Xiaohuan and call you Cousin.”

Before Chu Yiran’s face darkened, Qin Xuan smiled and said, “Oh, I heard that Cousin Chu works under my cousin. As the boss, my cousin has endless work every day. He doesn’t even have much time to accompany his fiancée. Cousin Chu is really much happier than my cousin. She can ask for leave whenever she wants. Is this the difference between a boss and his subordinate?”

Her words were especially insulting and she even emphasized the words “fiancée”.

“…” Huo Siyu. Sorry, that’s me.

Although Qin Xuan had a smile on her face and was extremely warm, anyone with a brain could tell that she didn’t like Chu Yiran.

However, this Chu Yiran…

So this was what she looked like. Huo Siyu didn’t see Chu Yiran’s face when she was wearing a mask that day.

She was indeed decent, but she was just not a very good person.

From the looks of it, Chu Yiran had seen Beauty Yu before. It was no wonder that Beauty Yu would pay attention to her. This was someone who had called Yin Jiujin “Nine” in front of Beauty Yu!

Huo Siyu glanced at Yan Jinyu carefully.

Yan Jinyu still had a smile on her face, but her eyes had become very abstruse. No one knew what she was thinking.

Huo Siyu couldn’t help but shiver and secretly light a candle for Chu Yiran in her heart.

Why did you have to offend Beauty Yu?!

It seemed like Chu Yiran was wearing a wig when she went to the auction that night.

“I don’t take leave all year round, so it’s inevitable that it’s easier for me to get a leave. On the other hand, Sister Xuan, do you have any misunderstandings about me?”

“What misunderstanding?” Qin Xuan blinked innocently. “No, why would Cousin Chu ask that? Did I say something wrong that made you misunderstand?”

“If that’s the case, Cousin Chu, please don’t take it to heart. I didn’t mean it.”

“No, I just thought you didn’t like me.”

Qin Xuan widened her eyes, “How could that be? I like you, Cousin Chu. You’re the only young woman who can survive in my cousin’s circle of men. I think you’re especially capable. I admire you in my heart, really!”

“My cousin and his brothers are all outstanding people of the younger generation. Everyone of them is a young master of an influential family that makes people jealous. They’re not people who were playboys. Many of them even have rules that don’t allow women to get close to them. How can Cousin Chu still be with them?”

“It can’t be that Cousin Chu is thick-skinned and doesn’t know how to read people’s expressions, so she insists on following them, right? Cousin Chu isn’t that kind of shameless person!”

Qin Xuan didn’t care that Chu Yiran almost couldn’t hold it in anymore and continued, “That’s why I said that Cousin Chu is especially capable. I admire you very much. You actually received special treatment from those outstanding young masters of influential families!”

Chu Yiran’s face turned red.

Huo Siyu couldn’t help but laugh.

Chu Yiran, who was already angry at Qin Xuan’s words, became even angrier when she heard Huo Siyu’s smile. “What are you laughing at?”

Huo Siyu glared back at her. “Why are you glaring at me? You’re not letting others laugh? Do you think I’m laughing at you? Then you’re really shameless! I just couldn’t help but laugh when I thought of a funny joke. Don’t flatter yourself.”

Qin Xuan chuckled.

Chu Yiran was furious.

“I’m sorry, Cousin Chu. I’m not laughing at you. I’m laughing at this senior.”

She even exchanged glances with Huo Siyu.

They were clearly not familiar with each other, but she could tell that this senior did not like Chu Yiran either. Then, this senior was her ally!

Chu Yiran didn’t even look at herself in the mirror. She really thought that she was a princess. She would shamelessly approach her cousin every time.

How was she worthy of her cousin!

Chu Yiran looked at them and her eyes darkened. She was about to flare up when she heard a voice. “What a coincidence!”

The few of them looked over. It wasn’t someone they knew, but Yan Jinyu knew her.

Wang Zhi.

“Jinyu, I didn’t expect to meet you here. What a coincidence!”

Yan Jinyu narrowed her eyes and smiled. “It’s indeed a coincidence.” She didn’t know who in their class had been admitted to the Imperial Capital University, but she was certain that Wang Zhi wasn’t among those people who were admitted to the Imperial Capital University.

This was… very interesting.

“J-Jinyu, are you very curious about why I’m here?”

“I’m not curious.”

“…” Wang Zhi’s expression froze.

Huo Siyu held back her laughter.

Yan Jinyu suddenly smiled. “I’m joking. Of course, I’m curious.”

“Jinyu, you’re so humorous.”

“I’m not humorous.”

“…”

“Oh, it was a joke too. I do seem to have some humor.”

Not only Huo Siyu, but even Zhao Linlin, who was shocked when Chu Yiran handed her a 500,000 dollars card, almost couldn’t help but laugh.

“You… have been admitted to the Imperial Capital University too?”

Wang Zhi lowered her head in embarrassment. “No, no. I-I got my family to help me to enter the Imperial Capital University’s art school. Jinyu, I relied on my family’s connections to get to the university that I dreamed of going to. Will you look down on me?”

Huo Siyu thought to herself, You’re really shameless. You make it sound like you’re very close to Beauty Yu. Who are you? Would Beauty Yu interfere in your matters? Don’t flatter yourself!

“Why should I look down on you?” Yan Jinyu asked with a smile.

This smile had a hint of amusement.

Wang Zhi’s expression froze again.

“Your family’s connections are also a part of your strength. You have made it to the Imperial Capital University and that’s your ability. Why should I look down on you?”

“It’s great that you’re not looking down on me. I-I’ve always wanted to be friends with you. It wasn’t easy for me to be thick-skinned and go on a graduation trip with you guys. I barely became your friend, so I-I don’t want us to be distant anymore.”

“Actually, a large part of the reason why I came to the Imperial Capital University is for you. I don’t want to lose you as a friend. I want to go to the same university as you for the next four years.”

Yan Jinyu’s smile deepened slightly. Before she could speak, Huo Siyu beat her to it. “Wait, wait, wait! Schoolmate, don’t give our Beauty Yu such a big hat. You just said that the Imperial Capital University is the university that you yearn for. Now, you’re saying that a large part of the reason why you came to the Imperial Capital University is for our Beauty Yu.”

“It has only been three months since our Beauty Yu transferred to your high school. Three months. With my understanding of Beauty Yu, I’m afraid she didn’t even say a few words to you. How can she affect you so much?”

“Indeed, our Beauty Yu is very charming. No matter if it’s a man or a woman, it’s very difficult to resist her charm. It’s understandable that you want to be friends with her.”

“Since you guys went on a graduation trip together, you can be barely considered friends, but that’s all.”

“What are you talking about? A large part of the reason why you came to the Imperial Capital University is for Beauty Yu. It’s very easy for people to misunderstand that it’s Beauty Yu’s responsibility for making you rely on your connections to enter the university. Our Beauty Yu won’t take such a huge blame!”

“Also, Schoolmate, speak properly. Don’t hem and haw. Those who don’t know might think that you have some unspeakable thoughts about our Beauty Yu..”
