Chen Ling's roommate gave an awkward smile.
They could all tell that Chen Ling wasn't the easiest person to get along with.
They would have to keep their distance from Chen Ling in the future.
Chen Ling didn't want to stay around Wang Dahe. She had originally thought that if she stayed in the dorm longer, Wang Dahe, finding no interest, would leave on his own.
But today, Brother Lin Xuan might come, and she didn't want to miss him.
After putting down her luggage, Chen Ling tidied her hair and clothes, applied some lipstick, and touched up her makeup before finally leaving the school.
Her roommates watched her departing back, faces full of confusion.
"She actually dressed up so meticulously. Where is she going?"
"Many students at our school came because of Lin Xuan. She's probably the same, thinking that if she looks prettier, she can attract Lin Xuan's attention."
To be honest, they had also come for Lin Xuan.
But they had self-awareness; they knew someone like Lin Xuan would never be interested in them.
They only planned to catch a distant glimpse of Lin Xuan, with no intention of making any moves to pursue him.
"One has to admit, Chen Ling is quite good-looking, very much the type that makes men want to protect her. I wonder if she really could get Lin Xuan to notice her."
They really didn't want Lin Xuan to like Chen Ling.
He was their idol, belonging to everyone, not to any single person.
Moreover, with Chen Ling's arrogant attitude, if she really got together with Lin Xuan, who knows how insufferably haughty she might become.
Chen Ling arrived near the school gate.
It was the first day of the semester, and there were too many parents coming to the school. Cars were not allowed to enter.
Chen Ling waited at the school gate for Lin Xuan to appear.
Besides Chen Ling, there were many eagerly awaiting reporters and students.
Wang Dahe frowned and asked, "What are you doing here?"
Chen Ling glared at Wang Dahe. "None of your business."
Wang Dahe was filled with anger.
Damn it.
Is Chen Ling crazy?
He just asked a simple question and got scolded for no reason.
Wang Dahe really wanted to just turn and leave.
But then he remembered the bonus Lin Xuan had given him.
He took a deep breath.
He would endure it!
While waiting for Lin Xuan, Chen Ling overheard several female students nearby chatting.
"Have you heard of Lin Xuan? I heard he's super handsome, incredibly talented, and he's also the famous boss of Tianmu Group."
"Of course I've heard of him! I could have gotten into Stanford for grad school, but Lin Xuan is my idol. I saw he became a graduate student at Shangqing University, so I followed and came to study at Yundu University."
"I'm similar. Do you think Lin Xuan might notice me? If his gaze could just linger on me for a moment, I think I'd die of happiness." The girl's face showed a shy expression.
"You're so pretty, maybe Lin Xuan will see you."
"I think you could get his attention too."
They both knew it was unlikely Lin Xuan would notice them, but they still exchanged pleasantries.
Many of those who could get into Yundu University were top students.
Lin Xuan couldn't have attracted so much attention just by his looks.
But Lin Xuan had solved a world-class mathematical problem.
He also started from scratch and, in just two years, developed Tianmu Group into a top-tier large enterprise.
Talent, looks, physique, and the ability to make money—all combined, it was hard for any girl not to be attracted.
It was normal for them to like Lin Xuan.
Hearing their conversation, Chen Ling let out a cold snort, a clear mockery.
The two female students noticed.
They frowned and looked at Chen Ling.
"What are you laughing at?"
Chen Ling crossed her arms, looking haughty. "I'm laughing at your overestimation. Look at yourselves. Thinking you can attract Brother Lin Xuan's attention? Don't you think that's hilarious?"
"You—"
The two girls' faces turned pale with anger.
They were having their own conversation, what did it have to do with her?
One of the girls sized up Chen Ling.
She sneered coldly, "I see you're also here waiting to see Lin Xuan. Don't think he'll be interested in you either."
How could someone like Lin Xuan possibly be interested in such a shallow woman?
"Who says he couldn't be? My relationship with Brother Lin Xuan is much closer than yours," Chen Ling retorted.
When her father passed away, Brother Lin Xuan promised her father he would take good care of her.
Familiarity breeds affection.
She believed Brother Lin Xuan would eventually fall for her.
The two female students couldn't be bothered to argue with Chen Ling.
They shook their heads and stopped paying attention to her.
They continued looking around, afraid they might miss Lin Xuan.
Wang Dahe looked at Chen Ling, his brow deeply furrowed.
"Chen Ling, do you like Xuanzi?"
Chen Ling admitted without hesitation, "Yes, I like him."
"Brother Lin Xuan is so outstanding. It's normal for me to like him, right?"
Wang Dahe's frown deepened.
Xuanzi was Boss Su's man. Boss Su was the most domineering and the most jealous.
For Chen Ling to dare compete with Boss Su for a man, wasn't that seeking death?
Although he really didn't like Chen Ling, she was the dean's only daughter. If not for the dean taking him in, he might be dead by now.
Wang Dahe didn't want to see anything happen to Chen Ling.
With good intentions, he whispered advice, "Chen Ling, Xiao Xuan has a girlfriend. I advise you to let go of these feelings. You can have a crush, but don't make any moves to pursue Xuanzi."
Otherwise, the consequences of Boss Su's jealousy would be more than Chen Ling could handle.
"Also, Chen Ling, no matter what you do, Xuanzi will never like you."
Right now, Xuanzi's heart is completely set on Boss Su. How could he possibly be interested in another woman?
Chen Ling snorted coldly, unconcerned. "Who says I don't have a chance? Where there's a will, there's a way. If I work hard, in time, Brother Lin Xuan will come to like me."
Wang Dahe's brow was tightly knit. "Are you trying to be the other woman?"
"I am not," Chen Ling denied instinctively.
Then, remembering something, she became self-righteous again.
"Brother Lin Xuan and I talked about getting married when we were kids. If anyone's the other woman, it's that Su woman, right?"
Wang Dahe frowned.
A childhood promise to marry?
Could Chen Ling be talking about when they played house?
This train of thought...
Wang Dahe shook his head.
Forget it.
If Chen Ling wouldn't listen, she wouldn't listen. He had already advised her.
If she didn't listen, there was nothing he could do.
A dark glint flashed in Chen Ling's eyes.
No matter what.
Brother Lin Xuan would eventually be her man.
The reporters were also anxiously waiting for Lin Xuan.
"Are we going to come up empty-handed again today?"
"I don't know. Let's wait a bit longer."
