Chapter 1101: Chen Xi, The Fool

The more Zhao Ling listened, the more her face contorted with displeasure.

Gu Zi was the top student of the province, and she was invited to deliver a speech at the new student assembly? How could that be possible?

She couldn’t help herself, her curiosity getting the best of her. "Are you sure there’s no mistake? I clearly heard that Gu Zi is already married with children. How could she have time for her studies, let alone achieve such a feat?"

The lecturer beamed with pride when he spoke of Gu Zi, completely oblivious to Zhao Ling’s growing discomfort. "That’s what makes Gu Zi so impressive. Even with all her responsibilities, she hasn’t given up on her education. She’s truly someone to look up to. As for her husband, I’ve heard a bit about him. He’s a former military officer who’s now in business, and he’s already a wealthy mogul."

The lecturer paused for a moment before continuing, "I also heard that he moved their entire family to the capital just to make it easier for Gu Zi to attend university. She’s really one of the lucky ones, but then again, she grew up in a prestigious family—born into privilege. Zhao Ling, you’re really lucky to be in the same dorm as her. You should really take the opportunity to learn from her. If you succeed, the university will share in your success, too. Just make sure there are no conflicts between you two, alright?"

It was only then that the class advisor noticed Zhao Ling’s expression—a mixture of frustration and embarrassment.

Realizing that something was off, he quickly surmised that there must be some tension between the two girls. Not wanting to delve further, he offered a few more words of advice before sending Zhao Ling on her way.

Once she left, he sighed deeply. Zhao Ling was a good student—eager to learn, always asking questions—but she lacked a broader perspective. She couldn’t stand it when others were better than her. That was not a good mindset for the future.

Gu Zi walked out of the school gates, intending to head straight for the bus stop. But before she could take more than a few steps, she bumped into Chen Xi. He had just gotten out of a small car and was walking towards her, calling out, "Gu Zi, where are you headed?"

Gu Zi glanced at the bus stop ahead, then at him. "I’m rushing back home. What are you doing here?"

She actually wanted to ask why he wasn’t at the mixer—didn’t he know that Tang Xue was going? But instead, she kept her thoughts to herself.

Chen Xi shrugged casually. "I wasn’t planning on going home yet. I happened to run into you. The bus just left. You wanna take my car? I’ll have the driver drop you off at home, and then I’ll head back."
