30 To Be Targeted (1/2)

After getting acquainted with them, Xiao Luo gained a general understanding of Fu Jiawei and his party. They were all rich children like Chu Yue and they were university students too. They were not in Huaye, but in Zhonghua Normal University, which was separated from Huaye by an artificial lake.

When they learned that Xiao Luo came from an ordinary family of farmers, Fu Jiawei, Fang Shulan, and Ye Yingying soon lost interest in him. Their enthusiasm towards him suddenly plunged to the freezing point, they pulled Chu Yue and Bai Ling along as they gravitated to other friends for some chitchat and drinking.

All the people who came to this dance party were the children of Jiangcheng's richest families. They should network more at this time.

Contrary to expectation, Xiao Luo was at ease being all alone. He minded his own business as he ate the food.

He had not had his dinner so his stomach was protesting at this moment. He sat down at a table full of desserts and fruits, and started eating without hesitation. Not to mention, the taste was good, and he couldn't stop eating once he started.

Chu Yue, Fu Jiawei and his friends were looking over here from a distance.

”Princess Yue, why did you introduce such a person into our team? Look at how he eats, how rude. He's not at all elegant. With him around, our team's overall image will be lowered,” Ye Yingying complained, her eyes were filled with disgust at Xiao Luo.

”We're all from the same circle, but he's a penniless pauper who's unqualified to be friends with us. If somebody else got wind of this, everyone will certainly laugh at us,” Fang Shulan echoed in agreement.

Fu Jiawei did not express his criticism as the master of the house, instead he looked at Chu Yue quietly. He would never criticize the friends brought by Chu Yue before she clearly had expressed her attitude. Although, he felt the same in his heart, that Xiao Luo was not qualified enough to come here.

Bai Ling argued in defense of Xiao Luo, ”What's wrong with the way he eats? I think it's good. To be able to eat is a very fortunate thing, don't you know that? Also, my family's finances are not great either. According to what you said, do you mean that I shouldn't be here too?”

”Bai Ling, you are Princess Yue's best friend, how could you be the same as him?” Ye Yingying said.

”That's right, he is he and you are you. How can he be compared to you? Look at how he eats, he's gorging himself, just like a criminal just released from prison. He's not cultured at all,” Fang Shulan said coldly.

Bai Ling didn't want to say anything for Chu Yue's sake, so as to avoid spoiling the relationship between everyone. But as a child from an ordinary family too, she felt that their attitude towards Xiao Luo really was a bit too much.

”What's inside or outside the circle? Why haven't I heard of it, I brought Xiao Luo here. Do you want to embarrass me by vilifying him like this?”

Chu Yue spoke up now. Although she was a child of a wealthy family, she was very disgusted with the culture of the insider circle. Otherwise, she wouldn't have Bai Ling as her best friend.

Fang Shulan and Ye Yingying were quite embarrassed. They looked at each other and smiled bitterly. They did not expect Chu Yue to have such a big reaction, she actually criticized them because of a penniless pauper.

Fu Jiawei laughed heartily and broke this awkward atmosphere, ”Princess Yue is right, everyone is a student. Things like insider circles are just people messing around. Yingying, Shulan, if you talk about Xiao Luo like this again, I would have some harsh words for you. ”

”We said something wrong, Princess Yue, don't be angry.”

”Yes, yes, we just said those things randomly. You can't treat it as real.”

Ye Yingying and Fang Shulan changed their stance very quickly, they could not afford to have an argument with Chu Yue all because of some penniless pauper.

”I'm not angry with you, what's with the apology?”

Chu Yue shot an angry glance at Xiao Luo with her beautiful eyes, ”I brought him here for two reasons. One, to let you guys get acquainted, and two, for you guys to teach him a lesson for me, so that he'll stop acting so arrogant.”

”Oh?”

Fu Jiawei, Fang Shulan and Ye Yingying looked at each other, they felt a keen interest immediately.

Chu Yue beckoned them, and the four of them gathered together, discussing in low voices a strategy to make Xiao Luo embarrass himself.

Bai Ling sighed helplessly and cast a sympathic look at Xiao Luo.
