"That simple?" Ke Yanchu wondered if it was really because she was still too young?
She hadn’t expected such an answer.
"Then how did you, as an arts student, end up choosing finance?" Ke Yanchu was afraid Lu Xingzhi would give her another heartbreaking answer.
"I just got a perfect score in math, that’s all." Lu Xingzhi said nonchalantly.
"Hehe..." Ke Yanchu awkwardly tugged at her lips, "Come on, just hurt me all the way!"
Doesn’t your conscience hurt? How could you even say ’that’s all’ like it’s nothing?
"Pfft... Look at you, how pathetic. Look, Little Zhi Liao, there’s an interview video here!" Xiong Yali clicked the video, and there it was, an interview with Lu Xingzhi, then her former school, some teachers and classmates, and the principal.
Apart from Lu Xingzhi, the three girls watched the video together.
As for Lu Xingzhi, she was already up and dressed.
"Little Zhi Liao, I think this news segment, it’s totally a slap in the face for those who said you didn’t get into the university on your own merit yesterday." Ke Yanchu looked at Lu Xingzhi and suddenly thought of this.
"Exactly, my face still hurts!" Thinking of how seriously Lu Xingzhi said she was the top arts student yesterday, they had laughed.
"I should be happy because, on the other hand, you all praised my looks." Lu Xingzhi was already used to it, so when questioned, she remained calm.
Just as they were discussing this topic, Xue Bei was showing the news to Luo Qingchen as well.
"Qing Chen, guess what I just saw? I really didn’t expect it, Little Zhi Liao truly is the top arts student of the college entrance exam. Look, the news is out now, along with an interview video."
"Hmm." Luo Qingchen wasn’t particularly concerned.
"Your reaction isn’t right, why so indifferent?" Xue Bei was shocked himself.
Luo Qingchen shot him a casual glance, "What kind of reaction should I have? What does any of this have to do with me?"
"I thought you should at least be a little surprised." Xue Bei continued to glance at the news, then clicked on the video and noticed a crucial point.
"Qing Chen, the news says Little Zhi Liao’s family background isn’t great! This Yizhou City or whatever, I haven’t even heard of it. You think, her fiancé couldn’t be some country bumpkin who got rich, right? Old and ugly kind." Xue Bei let his imagination run wild.
At this point, Lu Xingzhi seemed like a pitiful little girl waiting for a hero to save her in his eyes.
"Do you think she might’ve found a fiancé just to pay for college because she didn’t have the money?"
Luo Qingchen closed his eyes and said irritably, "Has your intelligence been eaten by dogs? Or has your brain been soaked in water?"
"What do you mean? No need for personal attacks." Xue Bei said.
"Winning the national college entrance exam earns you hundreds of thousands in prize money, and she accepted such an interview, surely there’s money involved. Otherwise, why would it be released just on the first day of school?" Luo Qingchen really didn’t want to be associated with someone .
Has everyone’s intelligence dropped just because they met a pretty girl?
"You do have a point. Her scholarship is probably enough to cover her university expenses. You see, her demeanor doesn’t suggest she’s from the countryside at all! She looks exactly like a lady from a prestigious family." Xue Bei continued.
"Would you please not burden me with these irrelevant things?"
