Chapter 844: Is My Way of Leaving Home Wrong?

~8 min read 1,462 words

At Beijing University, luxury cars were often seen, but sports cars were rare.

Those who usually appeared on campus, besides students and teachers, were mostly successful alumni, senior brothers and senior sisters who had graduated long ago.

The luxury cars they drove were mostly business-oriented or steady sedans.

But if it was a luxury sports car, generally only wealthy young masters would drive one.

And today, on the school's anniversary celebration day, the appearance of this luxury sports car immediately attracted the attention of many students outside the building.

At this moment, the car door opened, and a man and a woman stepped out.

"Holy crap! An Aston Martin! Which tycoon is this?" Wang Jin exclaimed in shock.

"Eh, wait, isn't that girl our classmate Li Xiaoxiao? Did she strike it rich?" The girl beside Ceng Darong asked with a look of astonishment.

Wang Jin was speechless for a moment and said, "Are you stupid? One look tells you this car belongs to the man beside her."

"Hmm? That man seems a bit familiar!" Ceng Darong suddenly frowned.

Su Xiaoliang's face darkened: "I recognize him; he's two years younger than us, named Xia Yunhai!"

"Someone from the Xia Family?"

"Mm!" Su Xiaoliang nodded.

Everyone immediately widened their eyes, greatly shocked.

They all knew clearly that there was only one Xia Family in the Capital City; this powerful and prestigious clan was renowned throughout the Capital and indeed all of China.

The businesses they were involved in ranged from finance, real estate, and oil mines to restaurants and hotels; they could be called nobility!

"Li Xiaoxiao is actually dating a descendant of the Xia Family; she's really made it this time!" A classmate immediately said enviously.

"Wow! It looks like things are going to get lively today!"

"Li Xiaoxiao had quite a conflict with Lin Yuxi back in the day; Lin Yuxi was ranked first as the campus beauty, while she was ranked second, and she has always been unwilling to accept that."

"Sigh, now that she relies on this connection with the Xia Family, she's probably going to surpass Lin Yuxi."

"That's not necessarily true; back then, didn't the Xia Family's eldest young master, Xia Luoqing, also pursue Lin Yuxi? It's just that Lin Yuxi didn't agree."

Everyone discussed heatedly.

Meanwhile, the expressions of Ceng Darong, Su Xiaoliang, and the third person also turned ugly.

Back then, there were many wealthy young masters pursuing Lin Yuxi, among whom Xia Luoqing's status was the most extraordinary; he could almost be called the number one Crown Prince of the Capital City.

Therefore, they had always suspected that Xu Que's car accident back then was related to Xia Luoqing.

It was just that after Xu Que's car accident, Xia Luoqing almost vanished without a trace; no one could find him, and given how immense the Xia Family was, the three of them could not investigate any clues at all.

Later, the three of them shifted their target to this Xia Yunhai, planning to start their investigation through him.

Who would have thought that just as they started tailing him, they were discovered by Xia Yunhai's bodyguards; the three of them were beaten severely, hospitalized for over a month, and after clearly realizing the gap in strength between themselves and the other party, they could only let the matter drop!

Seeing Xia Yunhai again today, Su Xiaoliang recognized him immediately, and fire instantly rose in his heart.

Ceng Darong and Wang Jin also looked ugly, but ultimately dared not step forward to cause trouble again.

After graduating and stepping into society, they became increasingly aware of society's cruelty and increasingly understood the huge gap between themselves and these financial conglomerate heirs.

If they rushed up to cause trouble now, they probably wouldn't even touch half a hair on Xia Yunhai's body before being beaten into the hospital again!

"Hello, my old classmates, you've come too?"

At this moment, Li Xiaoxiao, holding Xia Yunhai's arm, walked in with graceful strides in full dress.

Seeing the group of dumbfounded old classmates inside the building, a triumphant and proud smile spread across Li Xiaoxiao's face, as if she had long expected this scene.

At this time, everyone else reacted, and a female student immediately spoke up: "Wow, Xiaoxiao, long time no see, you've become even more beautiful!"

"So beautiful, I almost didn't recognize you!"

"Is this your boyfriend? So handsome!"

"You two are such a perfect match, a match made in heaven!"

Many classmates immediately greeted them enthusiastically; just based on Xia Yunhai's identity alone, it was worth them putting aside everything to curry favor with Li Xiaoxiao!

Li Xiaoxiao looked fully satisfied, because this kind of scene was precisely the reason she came to attend the school anniversary.

Only Xia Yunhai kept his head down, minding his own business playing with his mobile phone, completely ignoring everyone.

In his eyes, none of these people were even as interesting as a mobile phone; if it weren't for Li Xiaoxiao clamoring to come, he would have been too lazy to make a special trip to the school.

"Eh, I heard Yu Xi is also coming; where is she? Haven't seen her in so long, I miss her a bit!" At this moment, Li Xiaoxiao scanned her surroundings and asked with a faint smile.

She had another purpose for coming today: to strike a blow against her old rival from back then.

Hearing this, everyone bitter smiled in their hearts, having already guessed her intention!

Clap! Clap! Clap!

Just as everyone was preparing to speak and tell her that Lin Yuxi was upstairs, a sudden sound of footsteps came from the stairwell entrance.

A figure walked down; wearing a simple and capable women's small suit, it was none other than Lin Yuxi.

Everyone's gaze turned toward her, and the sound of discussion stopped abruptly.

This situation was similar to when you were just bad-mouthing someone behind their back, and then they suddenly appeared, making you instantly feel guilty.

Li Xiaoxiao also looked at Lin Yuxi in shock, and a flame of jealousy instantly ignited in her heart.

Several years had passed, and she hadn't expected Lin Yuxi to still be so charming; compared to her university days, she had lost a bit of innocence but gained a captivating mature charm.

Xia Yunhai, who had been playing with his mobile phone, was startled by the sudden silence around him and lifted his head.

Upon seeing Lin Yuxi's appearance, he too was stunned.

Back during their university days, he had been deeply moved by this campus beauty Senior Sister Lin, but upon hearing that his cousin Xia Luoqing was also pursuing her, he had reluctantly given up the idea.

He didn't expect that upon seeing this Senior Sister again today, he would feel moved once more.

"Oh, Classmate Lin, long time no see!" At this moment, Li Xiaoxiao took the initiative to speak, greeting Lin Yuxi.

At the same time, she wrapped her arm around Xia Yunhai's arm, pressing it tightly against her chest, as if declaring that Xia Yunhai was her man, and moreover showing off to Lin Yuxi.

"Hello, Xiaoxiao, long time no see!" After a moment of surprise, Lin Yuxi nodded faintly with a smile and walked down.

At this moment, she had already guessed what Li Xiaoxiao intended to do, but she had no mind to indulge in such childish tricks; she needed to rush to the Grand Hall for the school anniversary celebration to find Xu Feifei.

However, Li Xiaoxiao had no intention of letting Lin Yuxi off so easily and immediately spoke up: "Eh, Classmate Lin, after so many years apart, why are you still alone? Didn't you bring a boyfriend along?"

Saying this, Li Xiaoxiao suddenly covered her mouth in feigned surprise and apologized: "Oh, sorry, I forgot your boyfriend died several years ago! I heard that after you broke up with him, he couldn't handle it and ran off to commit suicide by crashing into a car. How pitiful; what a useless man, yet you actually fancied him!"

"Eh, by the way, what was his name again? Xu Que?"

As soon as these words were uttered, the expressions of everyone present turned subtly grim; Li Xiaoxiao's remark was somewhat vicious.

Lin Yuxi's expression gradually turned cold and sharp.

Su Xiaoliang, Wang Jin, and the others clenched their fists even tighter, their faces filled with rage.

Fury surged in Ceng Darong's heart, and he opened his mouth, ready to angrily rebuke Li Xiaoxiao.

But just then, a burst of cold laughter suddenly came from outside the building's Gate.

"Heh, did I leave the house the wrong way today? How come the moment I arrive, I hear some idiot saying I'm dead?"
