At school, by the time Jinian realized she had crashed, the Crystal Lamp Post was already shattered beyond recognition. Thus, Jinian had no idea what the original Crystal Lamp Post looked like, and naturally, neither did Yan Qingge.
The two wandered around the first floor of the lighting mall. Jinian was searching for a Crystal Lamp Post that caught her eye, while the Young Master was trying to figure out an answer: why he had brought her here, and why he was still accompanying her to look at lamps afterward.
Jinian was unaware of the turmoil in Yan Qingge’s heart and ignored his rather unpleasant expression. After looking for a long while without finding anything she particularly liked, she finally waved her hand grandly and ordered the most luxurious crystal lamp in the place, not caring whether such extravagance was suitable for the school auditorium entrance.
Before the crystal lamp was delivered, the two returned to school.
Getting out of the car one after the other, Jinian looked at him and politely said, “Thank you, Senior.”
Young Master Yan, holding the car keys in one hand and the other in his pocket, glanced at her out of the corner of his eye without saying a word and walked inside.
Jinian, in her sixteen years of life, had enjoyed what could be called a uniquely privileged existence.
Born amidst everyone’s expectations, she grew up surrounded by affection and adoration.
Beautiful, smart, and wealthy she was like the legendary favored daughter of the heavens! So, even though she had attended a top-tier elite school before coming here, in her heart, no one had ever been as irritating as Yan Qingge!
Bypassing Yan Qingge, Jinian hurried into the school.
When she reached the auditorium entrance, she froze in astonishment. Her car had already been taken care of, and the Crystal Lamp Post that had been shattered by her car was now standing there perfectly intact.
She abruptly stopped, frowned, and looked around, utterly puzzled. Was she hallucinating? She took two steps forward, circled the large Crystal Lamp Post, then crouched down to search the surrounding area.
Only after finding some remaining fragments that hadn’t been cleared away did Jinian pick them up, examine them, toss them aside, and head into the auditorium.
The evening party was in full swing, but as soon as Jinian entered and walked straight over to Nan Shao, the room suddenly fell silent.
“President, what’s going on with the Crystal Lamp Post?”
“Where did this pretty junior come from? Do you have a boyfriend?” Young Master Shen, living up to his reputation as a playboy, drifted over as soon as he saw Jinian, smiling and speaking beside her, completely disregarding whether she had serious matters to discuss with Nan Shao.
Jinian, being someone who enjoyed banter, looked at Shen Jinchu and grinned. “Senior, for the sake of my safety, you’d better keep your distance. The way you’re getting so close, countless glares seem ready to tear me apart.”
She didn’t bother to lower her voice, and as soon as she said this, the many girls around who had been glaring at her with jealousy awkwardly lowered their heads.
“What’s there to fear? As long as you don’t have a boyfriend, this senior will protect you!”
She shrugged. “I’m someone who avoids trouble, so I generally steer clear of two types of guys: those who are good-looking and flirt with every girl they see, and those who already have girlfriends. Senior, I just want to keep a low profile, so please don’t push me into the spotlight.”
“It’s true that she flirts with everyone she meets. Descriptions like ‘having countless beauties’ seem too modest.”
“Keep a low profile?” Shen Jinchu looked her up and down. “If you want to be low-key, junior, you’d probably need plastic surgery.”
“Why?”
“Your face is just too eye-catching.”
Su Mu smiled faintly, took a sip of her drink, and silently agreed with Shen Jinchu’s words.
As soon as Yan Qingge entered, he heard Shen Jinchu’s last remark. His gaze shifted to Jinian’s face, and he silently admitted that it was indeed a face meant to attract attention.
