Get married.
For a woman from an ordinary family, marrying up is indeed much more glamorous and luckier than marrying down. At least it is a shortcut to transcending classes and improving life.
People go to higher places.
There are many people who are envious.
Cheng Xi's tone was calm, without any ups and downs, "The eldest son of the Ye family is not married at the age of thirty, so he must have high standards. Whether to marry or not is not my wishful thinking."
There was only a narrow gap left in the elevator door, and she couldn't help but look up.
Zhou Jingchen's handsome face and Zhou Zheng's brows were deep and cold in the light and shadow.
The next second, the door was completely closed.
...
Cheng Xi came to Mingyuan in a car with Mrs. Zhou. Mrs. Zhou didn't leave and had to keep the car, so she took a taxi and rushed back to school.
In addition to the department head, Zhong Wen was also in the office, leaning against the corner with a pitiful look about to cry.
Cheng Xi walked in and glared unconvinced.
She felt enlightened.
The rumor reached the ears of the department leaders.
"Director." Cheng Xi said without changing his expression, "I don't have a sugar daddy."
"Of course you can't!" the department head said in an amiable manner, "Zhong Wen misunderstood. I understand your character. You haven't even been in love in college, right? The teachers think highly of you."
The dean of the department took a glass of water in front of the water dispenser and acted as a peacemaker, "Cheng Xi, you have been wronged. The department will give Zhong Wen a serious warning and the whole school will circulate criticism, okay?"
Cheng Xi didn't respond.
The head of the department took a sip of water and said, "It's really not possible. We have no choice but to fire her. After all, the impact will be very bad."
Zhong Wen gritted her teeth with hatred and had no choice but to apologize with choked sobs, "We have been roommates for three years. I was confused for a moment. Please forgive me."
The situation put Cheng Xi in a dilemma.
Zhong Wen just got a bachelor's degree in the finance department. Nowadays, big and small wealthy families attach great importance to academic qualifications. A major in finance and trade is helpful to the man's business and is easy to marry. Zhong Wen is not afraid of anything but being expelled, and her dream of becoming a wealthy family is shattered. .
Cheng Xi refused to let go. If Zhong Wen was really expelled, her friends outside the school would not be easy to mess with.
It's more or less a problem.
"Inform the criticism."
After Zhong Wen left, Cheng Xi stood there and thought for a while, "Director, has anyone looked for you?"
The department chair rubbed his hands and smiled, "Yes."
The messy emotional farce in the university happens every day, and the school leaders don't bother to take care of it. There are four people in the dormitory, three groups, and there is always intrigue. Unless the trouble is too big and a big shot comes forward to hold it accountable, they will investigate.
"Mr. Zhou's assistant came to school at noon." The department head couldn't help but look at Cheng Xi with admiration, "Your father used to be the Zhou family's driver?"
Sure enough, he sent his assistant to calm down the storm.
In fact, Zhou Jingchen's own face was enough, and the department leader would definitely sell him out. He moved away from the Zhou family, just because he didn't want to have a personal relationship with her.
In all likelihood, he is preparing for marriage.
Cheng Xi returned to the dormitory and Zhong Wen was handing out gifts.
"My boyfriend bought it from abroad. The European and American version are not the same as the domestic version. You can't buy it at the counter." Zhong Wen pretended not to see her and shouted loudly, "I bought a crocodile skin Hermès, which is more expensive than Cheng Xi's one—— "
An Ran was given a bottle of caviar essence mask, and another roommate was given face cream. Zhong Wen put her right foot up on the desk, wearing CL nail polish, and said in a strange way, "Cheng Xi is back, you have no use for such expensive skin care products." But, I won’t send it to you anymore.”
"I don't need you to send it." Cheng Xi took the basin and went to the water room to wash clothes.
When Cheng's father was alive, she had no shortage of good things. Zhou Huaikang and his wife were always generous to the driver and nanny. Even if Cheng's father died, the Zhou family did not treat her badly. She could not afford her mother's medical expenses, so she could only rely on the Zhou family. As for everything else Yes, she didn't want it herself.
Walking to the door of the water room, Cheng Xi heard two female classmates from the foreign language department discussing Zhong Wen's apology.
"How dare she not apologize? Cheng Xi's godfather is amazing. He is a genuine rich man. Zhong Wen's boyfriend is just a rich second generation."
"Are you very old?"
"A bad old man..."
"There are so many people chasing Cheng Xi, but she just can't think of getting along with the old man. He's fat and ugly and she can't help but talk about it..."
Cheng Xi threw the plastic basin heavily into the sink, turned on the faucet, and water splashed everywhere. The female classmate was speechless and left with a wink.
She had known Zhong Wen's insidious methods.
On the surface, he pretends to admit his mistake, but secretly publicizes that he was wronged to gain sympathy, while at the same time inciting hatred and isolating her.
But at least he apologized, which was a great humiliation to Zhong Wen.
Because she was going to Beihang Group the next day, Cheng Xi couldn't sleep well all night. She and Zhou Jingchen met too frequently these days.
The more frequent, the more throbbing, the more off track it will be.
Qin Shang learned that the department manager was taking her with him and offered to go, so Cheng Xi became Qin Shang's temporary assistant.
"Why were you in Mrs. Zhou's box that day?"
Qin Shang drove wildly, and Cheng Xi held on to the seat belt tightly. "General Manager Zhou donated the dance studio and library. The department head asked me to thank Mrs. Zhou."
Anyway, the Qin family and the Zhou family are not familiar with each other, and the Zhou family looks down on the Qin family. Cheng Xi can say anything, but Qin Shang has no way to verify it.
To meet Zhou Jingchen, you need to make an appointment in advance. The front desk lady will line up according to the person's ability. If you are strong, you can make an appointment for a good time for the interview;
Qin Shang made an appointment for a ten-minute lunch break.
Not a good time.
And it's more urgent.
"Class is a legacy built by our ancestors. One or two generations of hard work cannot overcome it." Qin Shang slumped on the sofa in the rest area dejectedly and said to himself, "Does the Zhou family have a red background?"
Cheng Xi checked the information for the last time and checked the market data. At twelve o'clock, Zhou Jingchen showed up on time.
He came out of the conference room surrounded by a group of middle-aged executives in suits.
This was the first time Cheng Xi saw Zhou Jingchen in the company.
Elite, majestic, domineering.
His tie was tied meticulously, and the button was tied to the lower inch of his throat. His dignified mature manly style seeped out from every pore of his body, making people's eyes warm.
He is cold and reserved to the core, even when sleeping.
Zhou Jingchen's sleeping style is more graceful and beautiful than that of a woman.
Cheng Xi's position was very conspicuous, and Zhou Jingchen also noticed her, paused slightly, and ignored her.
"Chief Engineer Zhou!" Qin Shang stepped forward to stop him, "Our Wanli Company has made an appointment."
Zhou Jingchen has a good eye for photographic memory and recognized him as the man wearing a denim jacket from Ming Yuan, "The son of boss Cheng Xi?"
"It's me!" Qin Shang was flattered, but then he was confused, "Do you know Cheng Xi?"
"know."
"do not know."
