Holy crap!
Jiang Yutong!
It was actually Jiang Yutong!
"Why is it you?" Lin Xuan's face was full of shock.
Jiang Yutong frowned. "Didn't the principal tell you just now?"
Lin Xuan suddenly thought of what the principal had just mentioned about the person who sponsored ninety million.
Could it be that this person was Jiang Yutong...
Still holding onto a sliver of hope, Lin Xuan struggled to ask, "Second Miss Jiang, why did you come looking for me?"
Jiang Yutong replied, "I'm here to join the microchip project."
Lin Xuan's heart completely sank.
Jiang Yutong rubbed her nose and explained with a guilty conscience, "Mr. Lin, please don't misunderstand. I didn't join the microchip project to pester you. It's mainly because I'm particularly interested in this project, so I wanted to participate."
Lin Xuan took a deep breath. "If you're just interested in the microchip project, then welcome to our project team."
However, he couldn't shake the feeling that Jiang Yutong spending so much money to join the microchip project was actually aimed at him.
It gave him a massive headache.
He really didn't know how to act around Jiang Yutong.
Forget it.
He could only take it one step at a time now.
Jiang Yutong said, "I'm also a student at Shangqing University now, so I'll just call you classmate Lin Xuan from now on."
"Classmate Lin Xuan, if there's anything I don't understand in the future, can I come and ask you?"
"Yeah." Lin Xuan nodded casually.
Lin Xuan called over a team leader from the project group. "Take her around to get familiar with the project."
Jiang Yutong asked, "Classmate Lin Xuan, do you not have time?"
Lin Xuan frowned.
Jiang Yutong quickly explained, "Classmate Lin Xuan, don't misunderstand. I just think you have a higher level of expertise, and I could learn a lot from you, so I wanted you to guide me."
The eyes of the surrounding students sparkled with gossip.
It was obvious that Jiang Yutong had a crush on Lin Xuan.
Meanwhile, the employees of the Su Corporation looked at Jiang Yutong with high vigilance.
Someone actually came to fight Boss Su for Young Master Lin, and this person was no lightweight. They had to keep a close eye on Young Master Lin and absolutely could not let anyone snatch him away from Boss Su.
The employees of the Tianmu Corporation, on the other hand, had a nonchalant attitude.
Whoever their boss liked and wanted to be with, they would support.
As long as the boss put a little more effort into the company's development, it was fine.
"Classmate Jiang, an introduction to the project is the same no matter who gives it," Lin Xuan said.
"Okay." Jiang Yutong didn't insist any further.
The team leader went to introduce the project to her.
Lin Xuan rubbed his temples, feeling a headache coming on.
If he had known that the person joining the project was Jiang Yutong, he would never have agreed.
Was it too late to refuse now?
Approaching noon, Lin Xuan left the laboratory.
With Lin Xuan gone, Jiang Yutong naturally had no interest in staying behind.
She chased right after him.
"Classmate Lin Xuan, are you going to grab lunch?" Jiang Yutong asked.
"Yeah," Lin Xuan nodded and replied casually.
"Perfect timing. I need to eat too. The servants from the Jiang family packed a lot of food for me, enough for two. Let's eat together," Jiang Yutong invited.
Lin Xuan refused, "I'm going to eat at the cafeteria."
"The cafeteria, huh." Jiang Yutong pondered for a moment before speaking again. "That works out perfectly. It's my first time at Shangqing University, and I'd love to try what the food here tastes like. Let's go together."
Lin Xuan paused his steps.
He couldn't help but glance at Jiang Yutong.
What was going on?
Why did he feel like the Jiang Yutong this time was different from before?
The old Jiang Yutong had a strong sense of boundaries.
Why was it that this time, despite being rejected over and over, she kept pestering him?
"Classmate Lin Xuan, you're not going to say you're not going to the cafeteria anymore, are you?" Jiang Yutong's tone sounded a bit downcast.
Lin Xuan massaged his aching temples. "Of course not. Let's do as you said and go to the cafeteria together."
A smile blossomed on Jiang Yutong's face.
Pestering Lin Xuan really worked. In the past, if there was no specific reason, Little Xuan would never eat with her.
Back in the experimental group, the Shangqing University students watched the retreating figures of Lin Xuan and Jiang Yutong.
They began discussing enthusiastically.
"I can confirm it now, Jiang Yutong absolutely, definitely likes Lin Xuan."
"I wonder if she knows that Lin Xuan is already with Boss Su?"
"Then again, Lin Xuan and Jiang Yutong actually look pretty good together. There's a slight resemblance around their eyes and brows. They have that husband-and-wife look."
"Yeah, I feel like it wouldn't be a bad idea for Lin Xuan and Jiang Yutong to be together."
The employees of the Su Corporation squeezed over and said faintly, "I've already recorded what you just said, and I can send it to Boss Su at any time. If you dare to say Young Master Lin is a good match for other women again, I'll send this straight to her."
The Shangqing University students immediately shut their mouths.
Boss Su was the largest shareholder of Shangqing University and the CEO of the top corporation. She had a thousand ways to make their lives miserable.
If she found out what they had been saying, they would be doomed.
The Su Corporation employees scoffed coldly.
Even just saying that Young Master Lin was a good match for another woman was unacceptable.
Young Master Lin had to belong to Boss Su!
If one day Young Master Lin and Boss Su broke up, Boss Su would definitely revert to her old, terrifying female demon persona.
They absolutely could not allow that to happen.
Meanwhile.
Jiang Yutong and Lin Xuan appeared in the university cafeteria.
Jiang Yutong kept talking, while Lin Xuan only chimed in occasionally.
"Hey, look, there's a gorgeous woman next to Lin Xuan."
Almost all the Shangqing University students and faculty who had been focused on their meals looked up, casting gossipy glances at the two of them.
Their eyes constantly darted back and forth between Lin Xuan and Jiang Yutong.
"Who is she? She's beautiful."
"I know, I know! She's the boss of Jiangtong Cosmetics, which has been super popular lately. The skincare products their company makes are incredibly good. Oh, right, she also has another identity—the Second Miss of the Jiang Corporation."
"Holy shit, that background is insane! Come to think of it, she's not much inferior to Boss Su."
Boss Su had money.
Jiang Yutong's family had power.
"From the looks of it, does Jiang Yutong like Lin Xuan?"
"It seems so..."
"Oh man, I feel like both Boss Su and Jiang Yutong are a great match for Lin Xuan. I don't even know who to support anymore."
"Don't even think about it. Boss Su and Lin Xuan have such a great relationship, there's no way Jiang Yutong could come between them."
Chen Ling was also in the cafeteria. Hearing these words, she clenched her fists tightly.
Su Hua was one thing.
But who did this woman named Jiang Yutong think she was, trying to steal her Brother Lin Xuan?
Unable to hold back any longer, Chen Ling carried her tray of food over and sat down directly across from Lin Xuan.
"Brother Lin Xuan," Chen Ling said affectionately to him. "Long time no see."
"Yeah," Lin Xuan nodded slightly.
Chen Ling's curious gaze landed on Jiang Yutong. "Miss, may I ask who you are..."
Since Jiang Yutong hadn't officially acknowledged her relationship with Lin Xuan yet, she didn't dare to present herself as his older sister.
She introduced herself, "Hello, I'm classmate Lin Xuan's business partner, and I'm currently working with him on the microchip research project."
