Chapter 587: Why Wasn

When Rong Ci met with Nan Zhizhi and the others, Lian Ningqi and Lin Wu were also gathering and chatting outside.

After reading the online news, Lian Ningqi put down her phone and said bitterly, “No wonder she clung to Yu Moxun and went to great lengths to stop you from getting close to Yu Moxun and Nan Zhizhi—apparently, getting close to Yu Moxun brings this many benefits.”

To be honest, her family background isn’t bad either, but figures like Nan Zhizhi, Qi Geng, and Rong Hong—until today, she’s never even met them.

Some netizens say that for people like Nan Zhizhi and Qi Geng, just having the chance to meet them once in their lifetime and say hello fills them with immense pride.

Not just ordinary netizens—even she herself feels the same way.

Rong Ci’s family background is far worse than hers, yet because of Yu Moxun, she easily befriended them—and according to the server who posted the message, Rong Ci didn’t just meet them, she’s also won their deep favor…

Some things Lian Ningqi didn’t say outright, but Lin Wu understood the unspoken meaning behind her words.

Hearing this, she lowered her gaze and said nothing, but her grip on the cup slowly tightened.

Because she knew better than anyone else what the truth really was.

Meanwhile, Ye Qiuyu also saw the online news.

Of course, he hadn’t missed the news about Rong Ci’s award a few days ago.

He had read all of Rong Ci’s papers and analyzed each one carefully—admittedly, every single one of her papers carried exceptional value; each one left him stunned, scalp tingling, and overflowing with delight.

In terms of content, Rong Ci’s award was truly deserved.

But could a mere undergraduate really have conducted such in-depth research within just half a year of entering Changmo?

Were these papers really written by her?

Ye Qiuyu clenched his lips, staring fixedly at the photo of Rong Ci posing with Nan Zhizhi, Qi Geng, and the others.

People like Nan Zhizhi and Qi Geng—he’d probably never have the chance to meet them in his lifetime.

Looking at this photo, he felt he and Rong Ci now belonged to two different worlds; she had reached a height he could never aspire to, living a life he couldn’t imagine.

If it were Yu Moxun, he could understand.

But Rong Ci… what made her worthy?

Thinking of this, Ye Qiuyu’s gaze grew even colder.

…

Ren Jifeng rarely went online, but Yao Xinbo loved browsing the web; when he saw the news, his jaw nearly dropped, and he immediately called Ren Jifeng: “Have you seen the online news?! Why aren’t you in the photo? Uncle Ren had dinner with them—why didn’t he invite you?”

Ren Jifeng was utterly confused.

He went online and checked—when he saw his father dining with Rong Ci, Nan Zhizhi, Qi Geng, and the others, he froze.

“Holy shit, that’s Nan Zhizhi, Qi Geng, and Rong Hong—they’re huge figures! Such a rare chance to meet them, and you—you didn’t even go with them?!”

Ren Jifeng: “...My dad didn’t tell me.”

Yao Xinbo: “Huh?”

After processing it, he blinked in surprise, “Wait—Yu Moxun and Rong Ci both went, so why didn’t Uncle Ren invite you?”

Ren Jifeng wanted to know too.

But before he could speak, Yao Xinbo blurted out: “Could it be… they think you’re not good enough?”

“...” Ren Jifeng: “You’re really my best friend.”

Yao Xinbo was just joking—he chuckled and said, “I’m just curious.”
