Chen Wei looked at her in disbelief, "Didn't you say she was chasing you?"
"Indeed, she still owes me two hundred and thirty-two yuan and fifty cents. I chase her every day to collect the debt."
[Negative Emotion Points +100]
Chen Wei's body trembled. He had thought Xu Ying was pure and innocent, untouched.
He didn't expect she was someone who threw herself at others, and they didn't even want her.
Then all his hard work chasing her for so long was just a joke!
"Honey, don't be angry. I was also blinded by beauty at the time."
"Since you're so proactive, why did you resist when I tried to hold your hand?"
Xu Yi couldn't help but laugh, "Maybe when she looked at you, it was too stimulating."
[Negative Emotion Points +50]
"You're saying I'm ugly?" Chen Wei's composure finally broke, truly shattered.
The title of "Clown Brother Goblin" fell upon him once again.
"Honey, if I don't wear my glasses, you're also quite pleasant to look at," Xu Ying said, trying to comfort him.
"Get lost!"
Xu Yi: Is there another master?
Chen Wei completely rejected Xu Ying.
Lies don't hurt; the truth is the sharpest knife.
Xu Ying could no longer maintain her facade and cried out, "Xu Yi, are you trying to ruin me? This is my only chance to pass the civil service exam, and you want to sabotage it too?
Can't you stand seeing others do well! I was truly blind."
[Good punch! You dumped him and then came back looking for attention.]
[Sister, you know... I rarely side with the guy.]
[Brothers, Xu Ying is your wife.]
[Your wife.]
[Your wife]
The leaders present couldn't stand listening any longer. Especially the Principal and the Director, they felt utterly disgraced.
The Director spoke calmly, but his gaze was heavy, "Young student, you've said that wrong. Isn't the civil service exam about your own ability? Why are you blaming Xu Yi?"
"Who is this Old Man?"
"..."
"I am Xu Yi's uncle."
"Alright, then quickly have Xu Yi apologize to me."
Yu Shu was once again silenced.
Xu Ying, however, continued her fiery assault, "Old Man, have you lived all these years in vain? I have the opportunity to rely on connections, why would I take the civil service exam?
Chen Wei has connections and a background. He can easily help me pass. Can Xu Yi do that?
When I first started university, I was devoted to him because he was handsome.
But now that we're about to graduate, talking about love is too naive! Dating a guy like Xu Yi is fine, but marriage is out of the question. Married life with him would be a mess."
Yu Shu was stunned, "Are people this realistic now?"
"It's not me being realistic... If Xu Yi also had a background and connections, I definitely wouldn't abandon him."
"Forget it, Uncle Yu, there's nothing to say to him. Let's go," Xu Yi said.
The leaders glanced at Xu Yi with knowing looks, then prepared to leave together.
But Xu Ying called out to them.
"Why are you leaving? He hasn't apologized yet!"
[This woman is invincible, still digging her own grave.]
[If you ask me, she's brainless. So many school leaders are surrounding him. Can't she tell he's someone important?]
[Picking up sesame seeds and losing watermelons, truly foolish.]
[I'm 160cm and 160 jin, and others say I'm a bit pretty. Do you think I'm a good match for Xu Yi?]
[I think you're suitable for breeding.]
[Square warrior? Heh~ Things are starting to get interesting.]
Just then, another figure ran over from outside the cafeteria. Xu Yi focused his gaze and saw it was Yang De.
Yang De had a fawning expression, "Good brother, I heard the supermarket boss was going to cause trouble for you, so I came to help."
Xu Ying was stunned. She did have an impression of Yang De.
Her parents both worked at the Education Bureau, and she had even planned to seduce him back then.
But she never expected him to be such a simp, always activating his powers and being so weird.
"But isn't he usually so snobbish? He looked down on Xu Yi the most. Why is he acting so fawning now?"
Unexpectedly, his next sentence made her freeze on the spot.
"Director, you're here too?"
Then he took out two bottles of green tea, "Look, about my parents' situation..."
Yu Shu: My fists are clenched!
"I'm live-streaming here, and you're pulling this stunt?
"You want to eat purple eggs, don't you?"
"Director?!"
Xu Ying's head was a bit fuzzy, "Yang De, what did you just call him?"
"The Director."
"Which Director?"
"The Director of the Education Bureau, of course. You mean you still haven't recognized him?"
"How could I possibly recognize him?" Xu Ying was bewildered.
"So many school leaders are here accompanying him, can't you use your brain and think about it?"
"I don't recognize the school leaders either."
At this, Xu Ying felt like her entire world was falling apart. She had just called the Director "Old Man"?
She had gone all out against the leader of the department she dreamed of working for in the civil service exam?!
That wasn't the main point, the main point was... he was Xu Yi's uncle?!
While thinking, Xu Ying looked at Xu Yi again, "Xu Yi, he's your uncle? Why didn't you tell me your uncle was the Director?"
Xu Yi frowned, "Why should I tell you?"
"If you had told me, we wouldn't have broken up. We could have been together forever."
With that, she enthusiastically wrapped her arm around Xu Yi's.
But as soon as she touched him, Xu Yi pulled his arm away with a look of disgust.
[Negative Emotion Points +100]
Xu Ying blinked in confusion, "Xu Yi? I know you still like me. I'm willing to get back together with you now, don't push me away."
Chen Wei felt like his world had collapsed, "Xu Ying, what about me? I was just about to overlook your flaws."
Xu Yi shot him a look, "His uncle is the Director, can you even compare?"
"I..."
"Then what about all the happy times we had together before?"
Xu Yi: "Consider it your good memory."
[Negative Emotion Points +100]
Seeing Xu Yi speaking up for her, Xu Ying's face lit up with joy, and she quickly chimed in, "Yes, yes, consider it your good memory."
Unexpectedly, Xu Yi gave her a glare, "I was talking to him, why are you interrupting?"
[Negative Emotion Points +20]
"Brother Xu Yi, don't you like me anymore?"
"Are you worthy? You goblin template."
Thump thump thump~
Xu Ying's face turned pale, and she stumbled back two steps weakly.
"I don't believe it! Then what were all those beautiful memories we shared?"
"Consider it your good memory."
[Emotion Points +100]
"Is there anything wrong with me just wanting to pass the civil service exam?" Xu Ying said agitatedly.
[Good punch, completely wrong, not even wrong yet.]
[If she really manages to pass the exam, we'll all be responsible.]
[I'll advise everyone here, love someone purely, without regard for fame or fortune. That's all for now, my girlfriend's 60th birthday party is starting.]
Xu Yi looked at her deeply, "I'll give you one last piece of advice: be less utilitarian in your relationships. You have to rely on yourself for everything."
(Except me.) Xu Yi added silently in his heart.
[Negative Emotion Points +30]
"Huh? Xu Ying, you're here too?" A sudden surprised voice called out.
Qian Sheng looked at Xu Ying with eyes full of deep affection. It was almost palpable.
Xu Yi rolled his eyes. Another one looking to take over?
"Why is it you?" Xu Ying was a little surprised.
She had a strong impression of Qian Sheng; he was her number one sycophant.
He would always give her money when she was short.
But he had a weird little habit – he'd stolen her socks before.
She'd heard he drank the water the socks had been soaking in for days.
Truly the king of simps.
"It's getting late, you should go eat," Xu Ying just wanted to send him away quickly.
"Have you eaten yet? Should I buy you a bun?"
"No."
"How about some tofu pudding? Sweet or savory?"
Xu Yi chimed in, "Could you get me a chocolate-flavored one?"
Everyone: "???"
[Negative Emotion Points +5]
[Negative Emotion Points +5]
[Negative Emotion Points +5]
[...]
Xu Yi looked at everyone with a strange expression. Wait, I can gain emotion points from this?
Suddenly, Xu Yi felt like he had found a way to open a new world.
Qian Sheng: "Whoa, buddy, who are you? I only accept sweet, savory, or spicy tofu pudding. Chocolate-flavored... get lost, Great Xia."
"I'm her ex-boyfriend."
"So what if you're her ex-boyfriend? Is that so impressive?"
"I can give you a guide on how to win her over."
"Adopt me, Father!"
"Forget chocolate-flavored, I can get you plum sauce-flavored!"
Everyone: "..."
Xu Ying saw the two of them chatting animatedly, completely ignoring her, the protagonist.
She immediately got angry. "Qian Sheng, what do you want? Just leave after you eat!"
"Don't rush, goddess, I'm waiting for my uncle..."
"Your uncle works in the cafeteria?"
"No, he's a manager at Furun Group. He told me today he was coming to school to deal with some student who didn't know their place. I don't know how that went."
"What?"
Now it was Xu Ying's turn to be surprised. "Your uncle is a manager at Furun Group?"
"Yeah."
"Why didn't you say so earlier?"
"You didn't ask."
"If you'd said so earlier, wouldn't we have gotten together sooner?"
Qian Sheng: "???"
"Wait a minute, I'm a bit confused. What does my uncle have to do with whether we can get together or not?"
Xu Ying rolled her eyes. "Don't be naive. Background is definitely the top priority when dating now.
Do you really think you can win a girl over just by spending some money and sucking up?"
Xu Ying grabbed Qian Sheng's arm. "Don't you like me? Now's your chance to confess to me."
Qian Sheng was still reeling from the confusion, his hands trembling uncontrollably.
So... because of my uncle, the goddess is going to accept me?
I won't have to drink sock milk tea anymore?
Before Qian Sheng could speak, Xu Ying impatiently boasted, "Xu Yi, so what if you have a Director uncle? Worst case, I won't take the civil service exam.
Once I join Furun Group, I'll still be someone of status!"
