Chapter 59: Jingdu University Library
Su Xiyan's heart gave a thump, the words she was about to blurt out were swallowed back.
Now her Jade Ruyi is gone; the only one who could verify it, her grandmother, lies unconscious, and she knows nothing about that person—if she speaks rashly.
Will Yan Moci believe it?
Even if he really believed it, wouldn't that just confirm that her purpose in entering the Yan Family isn't simple?
One is a liar, the other is a fiancée who came with a token.
Su Xiyan dares not gamble, nor does she want to.
She doesn't want things to get more complicated, and her three‑month agreement with Yan Moci will soon pass; when it does, she will have to leave.
Su Xiyan pursed her lips bitterly, looked at Yan Moci, and gave a faint smile.
"If that's really the case, then congratulations, Yan Moci.
Now you're not only awake, but your long‑missing fiancée has also been found.
I think, when you truly wake up, it will also be time for me, this impostor, to step aside."
Yan Moci's face instantly darkened.
He stared fixedly at Su Xiyan, practically wanting to grab her chin and question her,
Why won't you believe him!
Hasn't he shown enough!
Or could it be that Su Xiyan really isn't the girl the Su Family lost back then?
For a moment, Yan Moci also felt doubtful.
Yan Moci's scorching gaze made Su Xiyan feel ill at ease; she felt he was scrutinizing her, which made her feel embarrassed.
Finding any excuse, Su Xiyan left the room.
She wanted to go to Jingdu University; Jingdu University has the largest library in the capital.
The Su and Luo families were both prominent clans in the capital back then; losing a daughter would not go unnoticed by the outside world.
Su Xiyan wanted to know what exactly happened to Luo Yin back then that caused her to run away and bear a child outside.
When Su Xiyan arrived at the Jingdu University Library, it was precisely the time of day when the most people were studying.
After walking a long while, she finally found a spot and chose a corner to sit.
Just as she sat down, she heard a discussion not far away,
"Hey, Yishao, look at that girl—she's hot!"
"I've been at Jingdu University for three years and still never seen such a pretty girl."
"Could she be from another school?"
"Qian Heng, you can't stop your lustful heart in the library! With finals coming, you still aren't studying properly!"
"What nonsense are you spouting with Yishao? I think this girl isn't even from our Jingdu University; she's reading some newspaper."
"Hmph, she's probably all dolled up just to hook a sucker!"
"Huahua, you're being too extreme. Even if she's prettier than you, you don't need to vilify her like that."
"Alright, this is a library—keep it quiet."
A somewhat cool voice sounded, interrupting their argument.
But Su Xiyan felt someone walking toward her.
When the shadow fell beside her, Su Xiyan looked up in puzzlement.
A cool‑toned youth full of teenage vigor stood beside her; Xiwei frowned slightly, "Anything?"
That person pulled out his phone, acting as if it were natural: "I study there every day; you deliberately sat in my line of sight.
"Congratulations, you've caught my attention—let's exchange contact info."
Su Xiyan: Huh? Old man on the subway looking at his phone, jpg.
What the heck is this, what's with what?
I didn't expect this cool‑toned boy to open his mouth with such oily slickness.
Is this the kind of pick‑up line that's all the rage on campus now?
Or could it be that she's out of touch and this is actually some new scam tactic?
Su Xiyan waved her hand speechlessly: "Sorry, I don't add WeChat, don't get cards, don't swim or work out, and don't make friends.
I have the national anti‑explosion app on my phone—don't pester me for nothing."
Leng Yi curled his lip disdainfully: "Playing hard to get? Don't waste my time—I've seen plenty of women like you,
Su Xiyan exhaled a turbid breath,
Ah.
At home I already have to deal with a domineering CEO—after all, he's a real CEO and looks like heaven and earth have no equal.
If we talk about Leng Yi at school, he's definitely the center of attention, but after constantly facing Yan Moci's face, Su Xiyan has become immune to those pretended‑pansy pretty boys.
Nowadays any little brat dares to hit her with that overbearing CEO spiel!
If the older sister doesn't show her fangs, they really think she's Hello Kitty!
Coincidentally, she sees that she's still got nothing and is holding in a breath of anger, and someone comes rushing to look for abuse!
Su Xiyan narrowed her eyes dangerously, "Hu"—she lifted her head, the machine gun in her mouth already primed.
Her target was Leng Yi's pretentious face, and she began to rat‑tat‑tat.
But then another voice sounded,
"Yanyan? How are you here?"
Hearing that familiar voice, this feigned surprise tone, and that affected, deliberate attention‑grabbing voice,
Xiwei.
Su Xiyan turned her head to look toward Su Xiwei, and standing beside her was also Feng Yan.
Su Xiwei saw Leng Yi standing beside Su Xiyan, and jealousy flashed in her eyes.
Su Xiyan, this woman, is truly shameless; no matter where she goes, she always manages to attract the attention of these influential figures!
Speaking again, she became even more pointed.
"Yanyan, you're clearly not a student of Jingda, so why are you here?"
"Could it be that you knew I would come with Feng Yan today, so you came especially to wait for us?"
"I never expected you to still have feelings for Feng Yan, older brother."
"And, Senior Leng Yi? How are you also by Yanyan's side?"
"Could it be that Yanyan is again trying to hook up..."
"Ah, no, I didn't mean to say that Yanyan can't help but act whenever she sees a high-quality man."
Su Xiyan let out a cold snort, glanced up and down at Su Xiwei, and spoke lightly:
"Looking at your physique, you probably don't eat much, right?"
Su Xiwei tilted her head, a bit unable to keep up with the rhythm,
Su Xiyan pursed her lips, coldly laughing, and added:
"It's a pity, though—although you don't eat much, you just remember to eat and not to fight, spending all day rushing over to find me for abuse."
"Pfft."
Hearing Su Xiyan's words, several snickers came from the library.
Su Xiwei's face changed instantly: "Yanyan! Even if I expose you to your face, you can't say that about me."
"Moreover, I'm just stating the facts; I also hope Senior Leng Yi won't have his feelings toyed with by you."
Su Xiyan spread her hands: "I'm just sitting here; he comes over asking for my contact info, I don't give it, and then they say I'm playing hard to get."
"Nowadays, even scammers don't pull this kind of moon-landing extortion."
"Furthermore, playing with feelings? Before slandering me, shouldn't you first look at the color on the head of your Feng Yan, older brother?"
"I don't even know if it's the green grasslands or the Hulunbuir Prairie."
Feng Yan, who had been standing to the side secretly pleased by Su Xiyan's appearance, immediately changed his expression upon hearing Su Xiyan say that.
He coldly said: "I didn't expect this woman's mouth to still be so vicious; although I've decided to marry Weiwei, but a sister like you who doesn't know gratitude—"
"Don't blame me for being rude to you then."
Upon hearing Feng Yan actually say he wanted to marry her, Su Xiwei's expression was beyond delighted.
Moreover, even Leng Yi, who was one of the fish pond's, didn't care at all on the side.
"Hey, Su Xiwei, weren't you walking really close with Yi Shao during the last club activity?"
"Heh, you think you're something, with the main person right beside you, yet you dare to come provoke, not afraid of blowing up the fish pond."
Leng Yi, publicly humiliated by the two women, instantly flew into a rage upon hearing the gossip.
"Enough, all of you shut up!"
But unexpectedly, he heard—
"Who's making a ruckus in the library!"
