Chapter 24
The Dongfang Group is one of the front-ranking business companies in the business world. The college students have more or less paid attention to the more well-known companies for internship opportunities. As such, they have naturally heard of the Dongfang Group. The discussion forum instantly exploded with activity. The anonymous commenter also revealed that Ye Chen is the young master of the Ye Family. However, the Ye Family’s business was a rank lower than the Dongfang Group. If Chu Xiang really is the daughter of the Dongfang group, then it would simply be ridiculous for Ye Chen to give her a breakup fee.
The anonymous commenter logged off, but the students who loved gossiping managed to piece together the complete truth. Bai Xuewei is the daughter of a Chu Family servant. She wears clothes and jewelry from famous brands thanks to Chu Xiang’s generosity. However, she was not satisfied, so she stole Chu Xiang’s boyfriend. She wanted to marry Ye Chen and became his wife for money.
After Chu Xiang drove Bai Xuewei’s family out of the Chu Family estate, they moved into the small apartment owned by Ye Chen. If Bai Xuewei manages to successfully marry into the Ye Family, then she would be branded as a ‘shameless scheming b*tch.’ But if she’s dumped by Ye Chen, then the situation will become even more interesting. They wanted to see if Ye Chen would be willing to give Bai Xuewei a mansion that is worth ten million yuans, like Chu Xiang. Otherwise, Bai Xuewei will probably suffer a double loss, losing both her best friend and boyfriend.
As for Ye Chen, the students believed that he’s probably in love with Bai Xuewei. But after this incident, he had lost his reputation as well as his title as the campus idol. Now, he was referred to as the cheapskate scumbag. Chu Xiang called Ye Chen, ‘a dirty piece of garbage’ and that nickname had caught on with the students. The students who hated him now all referred to him in the school forums as ‘that dirty piece of garbage’.
Bai Xuewei ran home and scrolled through the school forum. Her eyes turned red with hatred when she saw the discussion! The image she had worked so hard to create was now completely ruined. This incident had spread throughout the entire school. What would the Ye Family think of her if they see this?
Chu Xiang didn’t even know that the school forum existed. She drove to the teahouse and called the school counselor on her way in. An argument between classmates is merely a trivial matter, but if the other party is obviously at fault and needs to be held accountable, then the school will deal with the situation.
Chu Xiang, “Teacher, I had an argument with my classmates today in the classroom. Not only did they delay me from going to my internship, but they’re also a bad influence on the other students. If they’re not punished for their mistakes, then I’m afraid that other students will also follow their example. I hope that you can help fix their bad behavior promptly and punish them as examples to let other students know that harassing other students is wrong.”
Chu Xiang briefly retold the counselor everything that had happened and also stated that the students that were present at that time, could testify.
The counselor had seen the discussion in the school forum. Seeing how firm Chu Xiang’s stance was and how Bai Xuewei and the other had purposely caused trouble for her, the counselor said, “I understand. After I discuss this matter with the director, I will give the students involved a proper punishment. You should study well and try not to be too affected by these things.”
“Okay, thank you, teacher.” Chu Xiang managed to settle this problem by leaving it to the teachers. As soon as she hung up the phone, she had forgotten about the matter in the blink of an eye.
She walked into the room that was privately reserved for the meeting and sat down. She took out the documents pertaining to the projects. She just needed a final confirmation from the other party on the documents.
A man walked over and knocked on the door three times, “Hello, my name is Xiao Han. Are you Miss Chu?”
Chu Xiang looked up and saw a young man wearing a high-end black suit. His facial features are very good-looking. The bridge of his nose is tall and it is supporting a pair of gold-framed glasses. His glasses help him hide his ice-cold expression as well as his sharp eyebrows. He gives off a determined yet mature aura.
Chu Xiang’s gaze trailed from his face down to his meticulously tied tie and suddenly understood what ‘suppressing all selfish desires’ meant. The man was like a magnet, irresistible to the average human.
Chu Xiang stood up and stretched out her hand. She smiled at him and said, “Hello, President Xiao. This is our first meeting. My name is Chu Xiang.”
