My College Classmate Is So Jealous

"Section Chief Tian, this car is so beautiful. Although the pattern on the back looks a bit weird... How come I feel like I've never seen it before?"

The slightly plump woman said with a puzzled look on her face.

She had swiped past this Porsche model on short video platforms before, but she felt that there was an indescribable, subtle difference between those and the one right in front of her.

Hearing this, the mean and harsh-looking Section Chief Tian immediately said sternly, "Shh, keep your voice down, don't let them hear you. This is the GT version of the Panamera, and it even has a custom paint job. It costs over three million to get it on the road. Those who drive this kind of car are either rich or noble. They are definitely not comparable to those little internet celebrities who buy secondhand, low-spec Panameras to show off."

"Th-over three million? Oh my god, the apartments near our factory, even the ones over a hundred square meters, don't even cost three million."

The slightly plump woman touched her chest, her facial expression quite spectacular.

Although she was slightly plump, her figure was very mediocre; you could say her chubbiness was completely pointless...

Among the people she usually interacted with, Section Chief Tian was already considered a successful person.

Graduating from an ordinary local university in Jiangcheng with a degree in design, Section Chief Tian was originally hired by the factory to be an obscure office worker earning a monthly salary of four to five thousand.

As a result, she hooked up with the factory director, and in less than a year of working there, she was promoted to the head of the finance section.

For a university student who hadn't graduated that long ago, she was definitely doing very well for herself.

The slightly plump woman thought to herself that although she was older, she didn't have her skills.

Of course, it wasn't just about skills; she also felt inferior in terms of mindset. The factory director was in his fifties, sporting a greasy beer belly and a mouth full of rotten teeth. When he grinned, it was like releasing a biochemical weapon. She really had no idea how Section Chief Tian could bring herself to kiss him.

Perhaps this was just as the ancients said: "When the heavens are about to place a great responsibility on a person..."

In short, ever since she latched onto the factory director, Section Chief Tian had been living a life of privilege. She commuted every day in the BMW 325 he bought her and lived in the most expensive boutique apartment nearby.

This made the girls in the factory incredibly envious.

These days, you simply couldn't save money just by working a regular job, let alone live that kind of lifestyle.

However, the Porsche Panamera GT parked on the side of the road near the factory was undoubtedly many levels above Section Chief Tian's league.

"This car must be way more thrilling to drive than a regular Audi or BMW..." the slightly plump woman muttered, making an unconscious remark.

She also came from a local working-class family in Jiangcheng. Her family owned an old domestic sedan that was over ten years old, and driving it was, to put it mildly, an indescribable experience.

She had occasionally tried driving Section Chief Tian's BMW once, and to be honest, the driving experience was indeed different.

With this three-million Panamera, wouldn't it feel like flying?

This mere unconscious remark, however, stirred up feelings of displeasure in Section Chief Tian.

Section Chief Tian shot her friend a sideways glance, thinking to herself that this girl was as tactless as ever. She muttered, "It's just so-so. Actually, for cars over three hundred thousand, there isn't much difference in how they drive; it's mostly about emotional value. Even our factory director doesn't drive a very expensive car. A car is just a tool; as long as it's enough for your needs, it's fine. A man's true strength mainly depends on his career and his liquid assets..."

Just as the two of them were dawdling and running their mouths while slowly moving toward the factory gate...

The doors of the Panamera opened, and two figures emerged.

One was the tall and handsome Su Bai, who truly made Section Chief Tian and her friend freeze in their tracks.

In this industrial zone, the overall economic level was quite a bit lower than in the university town, so handsome men and beautiful women were not as common.

Not to mention a top-tier young master like Su Bai, who possessed both striking looks and an air of nobility.

However, what surprised Section Chief Tian even more was actually the gentle and delicate woman who stepped out of the passenger seat.

After staring blankly for a full ten seconds, she finally broke free from searching her memories and recognized who this somewhat familiar person in front of her was.

"Are you... Lu Yuning??"

"Eh?"

Hearing someone call her name, Lu Yuning turned her head to look, and instantly, her mood plummeted.

After being kept by Su Bai, her temperament had changed drastically from head to toe, so it was quite normal that the other party took a while to recognize her.

But Lu Yuning would never forget Section Chief Tian's bitchy aura.

"You, you're Tian... Tian Lili?"

"It's me! Oh my, I can't believe I'd run into an old classmate..."

Section Chief Tian's mind spun quickly, and she immediately put on an enthusiastic smile, starting to exchange pleasantries.

Seeing Lu Yuning covered in luxury brands and stepping out of a Panamera GT, Section Chief Tian instantly realized that this old classmate had definitely struck it rich.

Hiss, you really couldn't tell. Back in school, this girl was just an obscure, plain little country bumpkin.

If you had to point out any defining traits, it would be that she studied very seriously and diligently. She was often praised by the major course teachers, who said she had her own ideas and would become a very impressive designer in the future.

Of course, Section Chief Tian scoffed at this notion, feeling that it was purely the teachers coaxing children.

What designer? Fashion graduates from an ordinary school like theirs were a dime a dozen every year. So what if you had talent and a gift?

You'd still end up entering a factory to work like a dog or going into sales.

Someone like her, who took a shortcut by serving an old man, was already considered to be doing very well.

But as a result, Lu Yuning was...

Section Chief Tian couldn't help but steal another glance at Su Bai.

Damn, he's so handsome.

Could this be Lu Yuning's boyfriend? At this thought, Section Chief Tian was completely consumed by jealousy.

However, on the surface, she still had to maintain her dignity.

Su Bai watched the two of them exchange pleasantries, smiling nonchalantly as he leaned against the car and scrolled through his phone.

Old classmates meeting—the classic routine.

He couldn't be bothered to get involved.

That was until Section Chief Tian asked Lu Yuning what she was doing here today.

Only then did Lu Yuning cast a hesitant glance at Su Bai.

She wasn't quite sure how to answer, so rather than speak carelessly, she simply let Su Bai do the talking.

Su Bai didn't hesitate and replied, "Oh, I acquired a factory, so I brought Ningning over to take a look and arrange some work directions while we're at it."

Whoa!

Seeing his understated demeanor, Section Chief Tian, who had read countless people, was instantly certain that this handsome young man was the real deal.

That aura of authority, cultivated by long-term affluent living conditions, couldn't be faked.

"Sir, you are truly young and promising. Sigh, I really envy Ningning for finding such an outstanding boyfriend."

"It's nothing..." Lu Yuning felt a bit flustered.

"Then I won't disturb you two any longer. I still have to get to work, so I'll be going now."

"Alright, take care."

Su Bai glanced at Section Chief Tian's retreating back, thought for a moment, and suddenly asked Lu Yuning, "You guys probably weren't on good terms in the past, right? I get the feeling you really dislike her."

"Eh?!" Lu Yuning was shocked. "Boss, you could actually tell..."

"Your emotions are written all over your face, you know. You're very easy to read."

Su Bai reached out and pinched Lu Yuning's cheek. "Come on, tell me, did this woman mess with you before? If you really hate her, I'll fire her... From the looks of it, she should definitely be an employee of our factory."
