The principal frowned.

If she already had a boyfriend but still came here to pursue student Lin Xuan, what else could it be but two-timing?

Jiang Yutong continued, "What I want to express is that since I already have a boyfriend, it's impossible for me to pursue another man."

The principal became even more confused.

Listening to President Jiang's words, she wasn't trying to pursue student Lin Xuan. Then why would she donate ninety million to Shangqing University for Lin Xuan, just to get the chance to join the chip project team?

The principal was full of doubts, but because Jiang Yutong had just told him to listen to her carefully, he didn't voice his questions out loud.

Jiang Yutong said, "I don't like Little Xuan in a romantic way. I came to the chip project for Little Xuan because I want him to acknowledge me as his older sister."

"Older sister?"

The principal's eyes widened.

President Jiang went through so much trouble just to have student Lin Xuan acknowledge her.

"Principal, you should have heard about our Jiang family looking to acknowledge a younger brother, right?" Jiang Yutong asked.

"I have heard about that." The principal nodded.

At the time, this matter had caused quite a stir.

Lin Li had tried to impersonate their cousin, but it turned out the real cousin was someone else.

Could this person be Lin Xuan?

Jiang Yutong continued to explain, "Actually, the person we want to acknowledge is Lin Xuan. He is my biological cousin by blood. It's just that Little Xuan had his heart completely broken by the Lin family and doesn't want to be involved with family affection anymore, so he has been unwilling to acknowledge us."

The principal nodded in sudden realization.

So that was how it was.

This Lin Xuan was an absolute winner in life!

He had started his own Tianmu Group, his girlfriend was the president of the Su Group, and his maternal family was the Jiang family.

Anyone would be envious of such a life.

But that wasn't the main point. The main point was! If student Lin Xuan and the Jiang family acknowledged each other, Shangqing University would gain another backer.

The Jiang Group was one of the top-ranking companies in the Xia Kingdom. With this connection, the Jiang Group would definitely give more quotas to the students of Shangqing University when recruiting in the future.

In this way, more and better prospective students would apply to Shangqing University!

Student Lin Xuan was truly their school's lucky star!

Jiang Yutong continued, "I heard people online say that in this kind of situation, I have to pester Little Xuan. Once Little Xuan gets annoyed by my pestering, he will naturally be willing to acknowledge me as his older sister."

"So, I tried to join their project team, so that I could have more opportunities to spend time with Little Xuan."

Hearing this, the principal breathed a sigh of relief.

As long as she wasn't here to fight Boss Su for student Lin Xuan, that was good, that was very good.

His position as principal was safe.

A smile appeared on the principal's face. "President Jiang, I wish you success."

Jiang Yutong also smiled faintly. "Thank you."

The principal reached out his hand and said, "President Jiang, the laboratory is just a few steps away. After you."

"Mhm."

Jiang Yutong followed behind the principal and walked over.

When they arrived at the door.

The principal stopped in his tracks. "President Jiang, I still need to go in and ask for student Lin Xuan's opinion. Please wait a moment."

"Alright." Jiang Yutong nodded.

She stood at the door, her mood inexplicably becoming apprehensive.

She wondered if Little Xuan would find her annoying when he saw her later.

But apart from this method, she couldn't think of any other solution to make Little Xuan acknowledge her.

The principal entered the laboratory.

"Student Lin Xuan," the principal said. "Um, the person who donated over ninety million to our school said they are here to participate in the research and development of the chip project right now."

"Alright, let him come over," Lin Xuan said.

"Okay."

The principal returned to the door and said to Jiang Yutong, "President Jiang, student Lin Xuan has asked you to go in. I still have things to attend to, so I won't accompany you."

"Alright." Jiang Yutong nodded. "Principal, you go ahead with your work. I won't bother you anymore."

The principal returned to his office, his face beaming with joy.

His secretary asked in confusion, "Principal, what happened? Why are you so happy?"

The principal replied with a beaming smile, "Our school will soon gain another backer with a very strong background. How could I not be happy?"

The Su Group mainly had a lot of money, but their power in the military and political spheres still couldn't compare to the Jiang family.

With both the Su Group and the Jiang family as their backers, Shangqing University would be able to walk unhindered in the future.

"Ah? A backer with a strong background? Who is it?" the secretary asked curiously.

The principal replied mysteriously, "You'll find out later."

Once the Jiang family and student Lin Xuan acknowledged each other, they would definitely announce it to the world.

Naturally, the secretary would know then.

Secretary: "..."

Principal, do you know that curiosity killed the cat?

Meanwhile.

Jiang Yutong walked into the laboratory.

The members of the project team noticed Jiang Yutong.

The previous skincare product incident had caused quite a stir, so everyone recognized Jiang Yutong as the president of Jiangtong Beauty Company.

Expressions of confusion appeared on their faces one after another.

"Isn't this President Jiang? Why did she come to our laboratory?"

"Just now Lin Xuan answered a call saying someone donated ninety million just to join the project team. Is this person President Jiang?"

"It must be her. I suspect President Jiang has ulterior motives. Could she be here for Lin Xuan?"

"Right? If it wasn't for Lin Xuan, I really can't figure out why a boss of such a company would suddenly run over to participate in the research of a chip project."

"Lin Xuan's charm is really something," a student couldn't help but sigh in admiration.

Lin Jingyue felt a sourness in her heart.

She looked at Jiang Yutong.

Jiang Yutong's appearance and figure were both superior to hers.

She didn't expect that even Jiang Yutong had her eyes on Lin Xuan...

There were truly too many women surrounding Lin Xuan; it would never be her turn.

She really shouldn't have had so many delusions.

Jiang Yutong walked up to Lin Xuan's side.

Everyone in the laboratory was looking at the two of them with gossipy eyes.

"Little..."

Just as Jiang Yutong was about to speak, Lin Xuan said while looking at the mechanical equipment, "This is your first time in our project team, so there should be many things you don't understand. I'll arrange for someone to introduce the current situation of the chip research to you. Once you're familiar with it, I'll assign you some tasks."

"Alright." Jiang Yutong nodded. "I'll listen to your arrangements."

Wait.

Why did this voice sound so familiar?

It sounded like Jiang Yutong's...

But it shouldn't be Jiang Yutong's voice. Her company had a lot of orders right now, so she shouldn't have the time to come and participate in some chip project research.

This person's voice just sounded a bit like Jiang Yutong's, that was all.

Right, it must just be similar.

"Little Xuan," Jiang Yutong spoke again. "Long time no see."

Little Xuan?!!!!

The only ones who would call him Little Xuan were the three Lin sisters, Grandpa Su, and Jiang Yutong...

Lin Xuan had a very bad premonition.

He lifted his head and saw Jiang Yutong looking at him with a faint smile.

Lin Xuan: "!!!"
