228 Being Looked down upon
If it were that easy to transmigrate, this world would have been in chaos a long time ago.
“Morning, Chu Ning.” Yan Shen smiled and greeted her.
“Tsk, tsk. You’re so handsome today. Look at how many girls are sending you flirtatious looks along the way,” Chu Ning teased.
“But you haven’t. Is it because I’m not charming enough?” Yan Shen smiled generously as he replied.
“Ah… When did you become so smooth-talking?” Chu Ning looked at Yan Shen in shock. After returning from B City, not only did he become more talkative than before, but he also seemed to have been enlightened.
The two of them walked side by side, from the school gate to the classroom. In the eyes of the other students, it seemed like the vague connection between Chu Ning and Yan Shen had become closer. Although the two parties involved might not have such thoughts about each other, this did not prevent them from becoming the protagonists of public opinion.
“The school belle and the school hunk, they’re a perfect match.”
“What do you know? They might have been a couple in private for a long time. We just didn’t know about it.”
“Only Chu Ning is worthy of Yan Shen. Us ordinary people can only have his leftovers.”
“Yeah, who asked these two to be so outstanding.”
…
“Hmph, I’ll let you be arrogant for a few more days.” Ye Ting thought to herself viciously as she watched Chu Ning’s and Yan Shen’s figures walk further and further away. She was dressed exquisitely and walking slowly behind them.
She couldn’t stand Chu Ning’s peaceful and beautiful life!
Naturally, Chu Ning did not know about these wild speculations and discussions. She was thinking that, in a few days, when the results of the national physics competition were announced, she would be able to ask the school for money and resolve the collaboration issue regarding the cafeteria.
She also had a high chance of winning the Gold Award!
School ended at five in the evening.
Chu Ning usually finished her homework in class. The other students had to face the pain and troubles of doing their homework when they went back, but she only started her real work after school.
Her main task that day was to meet those distributors in the evening.
At the same location as the day before. Zhang Bo had parked the car and was waiting for Chu Ning.
“Let’s go to Jinghu District first. I’ll go back and change my clothes. Then, I’ll go to the Qingnan hotel. It’s the place Wen An has booked for dinner,” Chu Ning said to Zhang Bo as she sat in the back seat.
“Alright, President Chu,” Zhang Bo replied. Although he was a double-degree graduate student from one of the top universities in the country, he had come to a sad conclusion after two days of contact — he was not as good as Chu Ning.
After returning to her home in the Jinghu District, Chu Ning changed into clothes that looked more mature and put on light makeup. Then, she went to the Qingnan hotel according to the address given by Wen An. When she arrived, she looked at the time. It was almost half an hour before seven o’clock.
Chu Ning decided to go up by herself without Zhang Bo’s company.
However, when she reached the private room, she found Wen An sitting there alone.
“Er… President Chu, you’re here.” Wen An was a little embarrassed. Although he had informed them that the meeting time was seven o’clock, it was obvious that Chu Ning was the only one who had arrived slightly earlier.
At the same time, some of the distributors from Qinghe village had already gathered. There were a total of four people. They had planned to come together and meet the President Chu that Wen An had mentioned.
“Hmph, old Qin, who cares what kind of President he is. Let’s join forces and make him go back to where he came from!” A slightly chubby middle-aged man sitting in the back seat said with disdain.
“Zhang Quan, don’t look down on President Chu. I heard from some of the villagers that he’s not a simple person. He has contracted a lot of land in Qinghe village. Once it’s on a large scale, I’m afraid we won’t have a good time in the future,” another man immediately said.
“Who cares how much land he has contracted. I’m saying this today, If the four of us can’t deal with him, then we’ll find the other old guys! I’m sure they won’t let this President Chu come in and take over our market and get a slice of our pie!” A person sitting in the front passenger seat said with an unfriendly expression.
“I’ll follow your lead, I have no opinions,” another person said as he spread his hands, looking indifferent.
The market in M City had been occupied by these people long ago. If Chu Ning were to touch their interests at this time, they would naturally attack her together!
Chu Ning sat in the hotel’s seat and quietly stared at the tea leaves in the teacup in front of her. She was deep in thought.
“Very good. I’ll let you know very soon that times have changed. I, Chu Ning, will be in charge of the agricultural product market in M City.”
