In that case, the gap between her and Brother He wouldn’t be too wide.
Although Brother He was not afraid of other people’s gazes and opinions, truly liking someone wasn’t about being fearless because of his affection, it was about finding ways to improve oneself. The most update n0vels are published on 𝗇𝗈𝗏𝖾𝗅✦𝖿𝗂𝗋𝖾✦𝗇𝖾𝗍
Although her academic achievements had already promised a bright future for her, if her financial power could keep up, it would be like adding wings to a tiger.
She didn’t have a powerful family to back her up, but she would build a fortress for herself.
Shen Mianmian was a woman of action and did as she said. With her mind made up, she didn’t sit idle, instead, she went out with Yang Xiaoxi the next day to get some fresh air.
Beijing was a big place with many houses for sale, but Shen Mianmian realized that her current savings were nowhere near enough to buy a house in Beijing; even the cheapest house would cost over a hundred thousand.
Her sixty thousand yuan, which was a considerable sum in Licheng, was insufficient in Beijing.
So, Shen Mianmian set her sights on ’murder houses’ and began to inquire everywhere about where she could purchase such properties. Yang Xiaoxi didn’t understand Shen Mianmian’s idea at all.
"Mianmian, have you lost your mind? If you buy this kind of house, won’t you be stuck with it later?"
Shen Mianmian disagreed, "Xiaoxi, you have better connections. Aren’t there students from Beijing in our class? When you have time, chat with them and find out more about this."
"You’re crazy, definitely crazy," Yang Xiaoxi kept repeating these words.
To buy a ’murder house’—only Shen Mianmian could come up with such an idea. Surely she wouldn’t also want to live in it?
Thinking this, Yang Xiaoxi felt a chill run down her spine.
All night Yang Xiaoxi pondered this matter, to the extent that she even had a nightmare about it.
The next day, she arrived at school with panda eyes alongside Shen Mianmian, and as soon as they approached the classroom door, they heard a male student asking loudly and arrogantly.
"Who is Shen Mianmian? Shen Mianmian, come out! I’m only looking for Shen Mianmian. If you’re not Shen Mianmian, step aside."
"Who is that?" Yang Xiaoxi sized up the young man whose arrogance surpassed hers from the past and turned to Shen Mianmian, "When did you offend someone again? I had no idea."
"I don’t know either." Shen Mianmian felt overwhelmed. After coming to the university, she’d kept a low profile, hadn’t made many friends, wasn’t close to any classmates, and mostly spent time with Yang Xiaoxi aside from her studies.
When the students noticed Shen Mianmian had arrived, they all turned their gaze towards her. The male student noticed where everyone was looking and followed their gaze.
"You are Shen Mianmian?" Indeed a bewitching creature; no wonder my cousin felt threatened.
"I am," Shen Mianmian nodded in affirmation, "I don’t think I know you. What do you want with me?"
"You may not know me, but you know my cousin, right?" Cheng Feiyang looked at Shen Mianmian with disdain.
"And who is your cousin?"
"My cousin is Cheng Xining."
So it was the younger brother of that miss, coming to stand up for her.
"I’ve met her a few times, but I’m not familiar with her. Is there a problem?"
Cheng Feiyang, seeing Shen Mianmian’s unyielding stance as if Mount Tai were pressing down without bending her, became even more irritated, "I’ve come to warn you to stay away from He Nan. She is my cousin’s fiancée. Just focus on your studies and don’t become someone else’s homewrecker."
