The car caught up with Liu Chang'an, and Su Nanxiu got out and walked alongside Liu Chang'an towards the school. She looked up at Liu Chang'an's profile; he was now a little taller than he had been back then.

He probably feels that his current appearance is more in line with the general image of contemporary youth, and that he can fit in more perfectly.

Back then, Young Master Ye was truly a dashing figure, absolutely on par with the most handsome men, especially when he wore military uniform, which drove those socialites and heiresses almost mad.

What a pity, what a pity! Even though he was the man of their dreams, he was only Su Mei's bedmate in her secluded chambers. After all, at that time, the most beautiful woman in Jiangnan was none other than Miss Su.

Su Nanxiu still feels a bit proud when she thinks about it.

This kind of thinking in women is no different from the smugness and pride men feel when they sleep with a woman who is popular with countless young men.

Su Nanxiu went to Qin Yanan today to discuss the use of suppositories. She felt that Qin Yanan's chances of agreeing were about 50/50, but she also knew that if Liu Chang'an went to talk to her himself, the chances of Qin Yanan agreeing were zero.

Qin Yanan's intentions are as clear as Manager Sima.

But these are corn cobs grown on our own land; no young wife or daughter of any other family can pick them.

"I'll have to talk to them about this." Su Nanxiu didn't give up so easily. She was never one to give up after a setback. Back when she dealt with the eldest young master of the Ye Family, she tried again and again. How much more so would she try to deal with a young girl like Qin Yanan?

"You go and tell her?" Liu Chang'an smiled, his laughter not as cold as the winter wind brushing past his lips, but he felt that Su Nanxiu was also a bit confused.

"You didn't consider a woman's psychology. If you go and say it, she'll see it as a 'backing down' act." Su Nanxiu said this very calmly, as if she had no part in Qin Yanan's pregnancy.

"Then what's the point of you saying that?" Liu Chang'an said dismissively. This matter has already been settled. Whose responsibility and whose fault it was, those who knew the truth all know very well.

"I'll go and talk to her... You see, in the old days, when a wealthy family's master was having an affair and accidentally got someone's eldest daughter pregnant, the virtuous wife would step in, carefully comforting the young woman, joining her in condemning the master's behavior, saying things like 'It's not easy being a woman,' promising some benefits, and coaxing her to raise the child properly. Without the master present, she wouldn't feel her face was damaged, and might even feel a little proud, because that woman hadn't given the master a single penny yet." Su Nanxiu clapped her hands, her steps light and lively, like a true young girl. "Women, you know, they care about face. In front of me, she has enough face, so agreeing to use suppositories is no big deal, because I don't even have the right to use suppositories."

"I have to go to class now, goodbye." Liu Chang'an glanced at this "madam." Su Nanxiu and Shangguan Dandan must have a good relationship, right? Shangguan Dandan likes to act like his mother, and Su Nanxiu wants to act like his wife. Why don't you two go play your mother-in-law and daughter-in-law game yourselves? Just don't come looking for him.

"I'm going to class too, it's on my way." Su Nanxiu continued walking beside Liu Chang'an.

Liu Chang'an didn't reply, but just looked at the sparse sycamore trees by the roadside. The leaves hadn't all fallen; some withered yellow leaves were still reluctant to leave, stubbornly hanging on the branches, trying to survive the season.

Liu Chang'an remembered seeing Su Nanxiu's back on the first day of school, at the registration desk of the School of Biology.

Su Nanxiu was also in the School of Biology, but not in the same class as Liu Chang'an. They actually always attended the large lectures together, but she never came to class.

Even among her classmates, few knew that they had such a classmate, let alone believed that the rumored 14-year-old prodigy girl admitted to Xiangtan University this year was their classmate.

Su Nanxiu followed Liu Chang'an into the classroom, attracting quite a bit of attention, after all, she was an unfamiliar face.

It's been so long since the start of the semester that I've gotten to know most of my classmates and other students in the same major or neighboring classes. There are practically no unfamiliar faces I don't remember at all.

Su Nanxiu was a complete stranger, but because she was so beautiful, everyone's attention wasn't on whether she was their classmate, but on the fact that she was following behind Liu Chang'an.

Do girls really all like "academic genius" type boys? Liu Chang'an, who successfully established a bad reputation at the beginning of the semester, was like a magnet, attracting one amazingly beautiful girl after another to his side.

Liu Chang'an still sat in the last row.

Qin Zhiqiang and his two companions then entered the classroom. They saw a beautiful girl they had never seen before sitting next to Liu Chang'an, so they consciously moved to the front row.

I always felt that this beautiful girl's eyes and the aura she exuded made her much more unapproachable than Zhu Juntang.

"This is Su Nanxiu, also from our School of Biology. This is her first time attending class." Although Liu Chang'an often skips classes and can't possibly be present for every single one, he was certain that Su Nanxiu had never been before, otherwise there wouldn't be so many strange and scrutinizing glances.

He took the initiative to introduce himself to the three people in front of him. After all, he was just an ordinary person, while Su Nanxiu was a rich heiress. Introducing his classmates to such a prominent heiress might make it easier for them to find jobs in the future.

For example, Guan Yuan seems to be doing very well now since he met Su Nanxiu.

"Hello." Faced with Su Nanxiu, a beautiful girl whose every hair was exquisite, the three of them were all polite and courteous, responding in a very formal manner after being introduced.

Su Nanxiu nodded calmly, neither enthusiastic nor cold, avoiding any sense of rudeness and giving the other person a way out.

This is the most basic form of self-cultivation. For Su Nanxiu, besides being her nature, not easily showing enthusiasm is also a form of self-protection to avoid trouble.

For many who are not so young, indifference is a comfortable attitude towards life, not because they lack kindness, gentleness, and enthusiasm.

"Qin Zhiqiang has a girlfriend." Wei Xuanyi noticed that Liu Chang'an didn't seem to be talking much to the pretty girl next to him, so he turned around, put his arm on the table behind him, and gossiped to Liu Chang'an.

"Congratulations." Liu Chang'an had no doubts or questions, and simply cupped his hands in greeting to Qin Zhiqiang.

Qin Zhiqiang was extremely embarrassed. He didn't know if Liu Chang'an genuinely couldn't figure out what a "girlfriend" was, or if he was teasing him.

"I saw him buying lipsticks last time, he's really spending money! A three-pack for over 800 yuan, and I think it was even the small size," Sun Shutong remarked. "Now tell me, do you spend more money on mobile games or your girlfriend?"

"One shot costs 648, and another costs less than 328. It's still cheaper than mobile games." Qin Zhiqiang said, trying to remain calm as he tapped the table.

"Girls are more fun than mobile games," Wei Xuanyi said enviously, then looked down at the girls in his class. Apart from rich heiresses like Zhu Juntang, Yan Qingcheng was the only one suitable for an ordinary guy.

Wei Xuanyi now thinks Yan Qingcheng is pretty, has a good personality, and is tall... He didn't feel this way when school started; back then, Zhu Juntang had raised his standards too high.

Having been surrounded by beautiful girls like Zhu Juntang from the very beginning of the semester, Yan Qingcheng was naturally just an ordinary girl. Now that the semester is almost over and he still hasn't found a girlfriend, his gaze towards girls has naturally changed.

"Each has its own advantages. It would be best if I had a girlfriend who could play Honor of Kings with me," Sun Shutong said, offering a compromise.

"A lot of girls play this game," Qin Zhiqiang said.

As they chatted, the three of them started talking about mobile games again. Qin Zhiqiang was just casually mentioning it; he now had other hobbies that were not only cheaper than playing mobile games, but also allowed him to make money.

Liu Chang'an sat in the back listening to their conversation, occasionally chiming in. It was the first time Su Nanxiu had seen him interacting with his classmates in their daily lives at school, so she didn't disturb him. She just thought that this guy was really amazing; Su Nanxiu couldn't do that kind of integration at all.

As they were talking, Zhu Juntang appeared. She stood at the door and looked around a few times before seeing Liu Chang'an and Su Nanxiu sitting together.

Zhu Juntang stood there in shock. After hesitating for a few seconds, she slowly moved over and stood next to Su Nanxiu.

"Would you like a seat?" Su Nanxiu frowned slightly. Whenever she saw Zhu Juntang, she felt a little out of breath.

"You... you... you'd better keep your distance from him." Zhu Juntang whispered in Su Nanxiu's ear, pointing to Liu Chang'an on the other side.

After saying that, Zhu Juntang tilted her head and glanced at Qin Zhiqiang in front of her, wondering if Qin Zhiqiang had brought tape to class that afternoon.

"Why?" Su Nanxiu asked, puzzled. "Didn't you like playing with Liu Chang'an the most?"

"Be careful, he might trick you into the RV, tie your hands with duct tape, and gag you, leaving you helpless!" Zhu Juntang said with lingering fear. She never wanted to experience something like that again... unless he had sweet, candy-scented duct tape.

Qin Zhiqiang's plastic tape smells awful, and it might even contain formaldehyde, which could poison the little fairy.

"Isn't this fun?" Su Nanxiu looked at Zhu Juntang with great interest. "What do you think?"

"This isn't fun!" Zhu Juntang straightened up, commenting helplessly, "Are you a masochist?"

"How dare you speak like that?" Su Nanxiu's imposing aura surged forth as she coldly stared at Zhu Juntang.

"I'm just trying to give you a friendly reminder," Zhu Juntang said, exuding an ethereal aura as she confronted Su Nanxiu, "If you don't believe me, fine. Liu Chang'an is best at dealing with self-important rich girls like you; you might just become another one of his mounts."

Zhu Juntang was a little annoyed by Su Nanxiu's confident demeanor. Wasn't Zhu Juntang the same way back then? When facing Liu Chang'an, Zhu Juntang also displayed extraordinary abilities and temperament, but what happened? It was all useless.

Zhu Juntang felt that Su Nanxiu was just like herself when she first met Liu Chang'an, and she also thought that she could calmly and collectedly deal with Liu Chang'an.

Since Su Nanxiu wouldn't listen to Zhu Juntang's advice, Zhu Juntang hoped that one day Liu Chang'an would make Su Nanxiu "Mie Mie baa" too.

"The other mount?" Su Nanxiu sized up Zhu Juntang.

Zhu Juntang was naturally unwilling to reveal herself. However, seeing Liu Chang'an sitting there calmly, Zhu Juntang wanted to go over and bleat a Mie Mie times or call him "Grandpa" to play. But considering that he had abused her at noon, Zhu Juntang not to play with him.

Zhu Juntang walked to the front and sat down with Yan Qingcheng.

"Su Nanxiu actually came to class." Yan Qingcheng flipped through the book with some surprise. She knew Su Nanxiu. At the social barbecue event held at Yan'gui Lake that day, Liu Chang'an brought Shangguan Dandan and ate all of Yan Qingcheng's sweet potato slices. Su Nanxiu was also there.

"That little girl Su Nanxiu is too arrogant. Sooner or later, Liu Chang'an will teach her Mie Mie forget," Zhu Juntang said expectantly.

"Why is it making a 'Mie Mie' sound?" Yan Qingcheng asked, puzzled. She and Zhu Juntang were already quite familiar with each other. When Zhu Juntang wasn't sitting with Liu Chang'an, he would usually come to find Yan Qingcheng to sit with him.

"Anyway, it's Mie Mie bleating." Zhu Juntang was unwilling to explain, and glanced back again, "Even I can't handle Liu Chang'an."

"It's just sitting together, right? We're friends, so how does it have to do with whether we get along or not?" Yan Qingcheng asked.

"Liu Chang'an exudes a mysterious aura that unconsciously attracts girls who know him. My little cousin, though young, probably understands about love and relationships. But Liu Chang'an won't like her, so she can't handle Liu Chang'an," Zhu Juntang sighed.

Yan Qingcheng shifted her body somewhat awkwardly. So this was how Zhu Juntang viewed the girls who interacted with Liu Chang'an.

Fortunately, I didn't have much contact with Liu Chang'an. Of course, I wasn't attracted to him, but after observing him objectively... Liu Chang'an does seem to have that kind of aura.

"And what about you?" Yan Qingcheng couldn't help but ask in return.

"I... of course I don't count." Zhu Juntang hesitated for a moment. Her hesitation wasn't out of guilt, but rather because she was clearly in the right, though she didn't know why she was so confident. After thinking for a moment, she said firmly, "Because he's always teasing me, and all my thoughts are focused on how to fight back against him."

"Is that what you call rebelling against him? I think you're courting death." Although Yan Qingcheng hadn't personally witnessed how Liu Chang'an bullied Zhu Juntang, she had seen Zhu Juntang crying and sobbing quite a few times.

The key point is that after Zhu Juntang finished crying, she tried to get close to Liu Chang'an again, which made Yan Qingcheng feel that Zhu Juntang was the one who was being punished and made to "Mie Mie".

"I've noticed you're also particularly interested in Liu Chang'an." Zhu Juntang was wearing colored contact lenses today, making her eyes appear especially bright and large. She looked Yan Qingcheng up and down with a slightly scrutinizing and suspicious expression.

"This isn't an interesting question, it's just gossip. Don't you like talking about Liu Chang'an's gossip?" Yan Qingcheng asked calmly.

"I like to talk... but I don't dare to talk carelessly..." Zhu Juntang said with a worried look. "I don't know why, even when I'm just secretly gossiping with others, or stirring things up a little, or adding fuel to the fire... he always finds out. Now I'm really well-behaved."

"Then let me ask you something. Even if you tell him, he probably won't find out... Besides his girlfriend, has Liu Chang'an really not... messed around with other women?" Yan Qingcheng's voice grew softer and softer. She could only ask Zhu Juntang for information.

"How is that possible? He's slept with at least 100,000 women." Zhu Juntang held out both hands, looking at Yan Qingcheng's astonished expression, and then said with a hint of smugness, "I'm even underestimating him."

A roll of tape was thrown from behind and landed steadily in front of Zhu Juntang's table.

Zhu Juntang was startled and, forgetting about class, hurriedly grabbed the tape and ran out of the classroom. This was definitely not sweet, candy-flavored tape! The little fairy was determined to fight back!
