CHAPTER 403: CHAPTER 403: FLAUNTING WEALTH...

Sheng Qingyan listened to Ji You’s contempt without feeling the slightest bit angered. Rather, she didn’t care at all and even slightly hooked her lips, saying, "My grandpa’s fortune is 150 billion oh, my grandma’s fortune is 150 billion oh, the fortune of my dad, my mom, and my brother are all well over 150 billion oh, and their only heir is just me, Sheng Qingyan oh... As for myself oh, of course, I also have a personal wealth of 100 billion oh..."

Ji You: "..."

Ji You was already stunned.

Even, she opened her mouth wide and couldn’t manage to close it for a long time.

Seeing Ji You’s shocked expression that couldn’t close her mouth, Sheng Qingyan asked with a smile, "Just asking you if someone is a poor ghost, huh?"

Ji You: "..."

Ji You took a deep breath: "You must be lying, right?"

Sheng Qingyan lifted a finger, blowing on his fingernail—a gesture that seemed so effeminate and full of sass, but he did it with a kind of strange beauty.

He also hooked his lips, smiled at Ji You, and raised his tone, "Someone has never loved to brag since they were young, unlike a certain someone oh..." Obviously referring to someone in particular.

Ji You: "..."

Pretending not to hear, Ji You eagerly moved closer, with a flattering face, "Bro, let’s make a deal. When your wealth is unfrozen, give me some to spend? I’m not greedy, just give me 10 billion, 8 billion, that’ll do."

Sheng Qingyan raised a hand to push Ji You’s approaching face away, covering his mouth in disgust, "Not giving oh."

Ji You: "..."

Ji You’s expression changed in an instant, with practical action demonstrating what it means to turn a page faster than flipping a face, she scolded, "No matter how many credit points you have in the future, it can’t cover up the fact that you are now a poor ghost with only 1500 credit points. And those 1500 credit points, I gave you by the grace of my breath, so be sensible, speak politely in front of me. If you upset me, I’ll immediately turn you into a penniless pauper. Hmph!"

The last word with a heavy humph.

Then, Ji You covered her mouth, with a look of disgust, waved her hand as if shooing away flies, and drove the person away, "Poor dead! Stay away from me, oh."

Sheng Qingyan: "..."

Over there, Chu Jiaojiao, Yue Qiyuan, Yue Qiguang, and Shen Changqing were wearing tank tops in unison. They jogged slowly while moving closer to where Ji You and Sheng Qingyan were.

Chu Jiaojiao was the first to arrive, happily greeting, "Fellow student Ji You, good morning."

Shen Changqing, Yue Qiyuan, and Yue Qiguang followed one after another, all saying, "Good morning."

Ji You responded with a smile, "Good morning, fellow students, how many laps did you run today?"

Chu Jiaojiao waved her hand, quite casually, "This is my first time running, still not used to it, I did 10 laps in one hour. I’ll try to increase the pace tomorrow."

Ji You: "!!!"

laps, and only because it was her first time running, she wasn’t used to it.

Now Ji You kind of believed the nonsense Dr. Luo said that ten of her own Physical Strength combined wouldn’t even match a tenth of Chu Jiaojiao’s!

This isn’t human; this is a beast.

Yue Qiguang said arrogantly, "Dad also ran just 10 laps, but he was 30 seconds faster than Chu Jiaojiao. I will keep trying hard tomorrow."

Ji You: "..."

Chu Jiaojiao pouted and said, "Those 30 seconds you were faster by was just because I let you have them. If I didn’t chat with acquaintances for a minute, there’s no way you’d surpass me."

Yue Qiguang had a face that screamed ’I’m not listening’ and said, "Losing is losing, stop making excuses."

Ji You had already grown tired of listening to these animals talk. She turned her head and stared at Yue Qiyuan and Shen Changqing, whose Physical Strength grades were merely B.

Shen Changqing spoke softly, "I did 8 laps, a bit slow."

Yue Qiyuan frowned, "Only 7 laps for me, it seems I’ve been neglecting my Physical Strength training lately, I’m no match for Aqing now."

Ji You: "..."

Ji You didn’t want to listen to these animals anymore.

She ran only 4 laps in an hour, struggling at that, yet others? Each one could easily trounce her.

How depressing.

As the group was preparing to return to the dorms, a bunch of people suddenly approached them. As soon as Ji You saw them, she immediately turned around, wanting to distance herself.

At that moment, Lin Lele spoke up: "Don’t think that just because you won the approval of two professors, you’re better than Senior Xu Siyu. She simply disdained to compete with you yesterday and that’s why you felt proud."

On hearing this, Ji You stopped in her tracks, turned back, and said: "Do you have a problem up here?"

Ji You lifted her hand and pointed to her head as she spoke, "Otherwise, why would you say something so laughable?"

Lin Lele was momentarily taken aback and through gritted teeth said, "Ji You! You!!!"

Ji You leaned in closer, squinting her eyes, "You you you... If you can’t speak, then shut up!"

Lin Lele: "..."

Ji You raised an eyebrow and said, "What? Can’t accept it? Let me tell you, Lin Lele, I have limited patience! If you dare babble nonsense in front of me again, I’ll smash your head in!"

Lin Lele opened her mouth: "You! You! You!"

"Look—" Ji You said disdainfully, "Useless! Can only utter a few words. Let me tell you, don’t think I won’t hit you. When I lose my temper, even your parents won’t save you from a beating!"

Lin Lele’s hands shook with anger, she opened her mouth as if to say some harsh words, but Chu Jiaojiao had already stepped forward like an arrow and after glancing at Lin Lele, said, "Ji You is under Chu Jiaojiao’s protection. Whoever crosses Ji You crosses me, Chu Jiaojiao."

Lin Lele’s pupils contracted, and her mouth opened, seemingly hesitant, but she still bit her lip and said, "Chu Jiaojiao, do you think you alone can represent the Chu family? My Lin family is not to be underestimated either."

"Wrong!" Chu Jiaojiao uttered with assertiveness, "I don’t need the Chu family to deal with you, I alone am enough to take you down! Care to try?"

Chu Jiaojiao was domineering and with those words, Lin Lele involuntarily stepped back, unable to say anything in the end.

This scene unfolded in front of Ji You, and she hadn’t expected Chu Jiaojiao to stand up for her without a second word. Of course, she was touched, feeling that at last, she had a supporter who seemed reliable.

But—

Ji You stepped forward and pulled Chu Jiaojiao aside, saying, "Jiaojiao, you don’t need to lift a finger. I can handle a weakling like Lin Lele myself."

Chu Jiaojiao immediately snuggled up and said with a giggle, "Student Ji You is so mighty and powerful, I will always love Student Ji You."

Although Yue Qiguang, Yue Qiyuan, Shen Changqing, and others didn’t say anything, their presence behind Ji You and Chu Jiaojiao was enough to be intimidating without words.

So, Lin Lele turned around and left in anger.

Seeing her run off, Ji You quickly said, "Go back and attend your classes properly, learn more. And one more thing—pass a message to Senior Xu Siyu for me, tell her I’m extremely sorry she wasn’t there yesterday."
