Chapter 9 : Rich Family’s Young Miss 9 (1/2)

Though Xiao Wei didn’t trust Shi Sheng’s words, she couldn’t help but succumb to the common vices all women were prone to – curiosity and suspicion. In the end, she still ended up waiting outside the dormitory building.

She just so happened to be in time to see Su Yiyi getting off of Nangong Jing’s car. As the villain, she immediately embarked on her road of courting death; Once Nangong Jing had left, Xiao Wei straight up went and gave Su Yiyi a slap.

“Just because she’s rich she thinks she can just bully people!” Now even Xia Ning had a face full of anger. The other three inhabitants of this dormitory were all children of normal families. Xiao Wei was one of the popular girls of the Art stream so it wasn’t a surprise they knew of her background.

However, Su Yiyi couldn’t bring herself to care right now about the two who were angered for her as her mind was filled with, ‘Why is Xu Chengyue here?! She looks like she’s planning on staying in the dorms this time? Is she planning on taking revenge on me?’

While Su Yiyi’s thoughts were in a mess, Shi Sheng’s phone rang. Seeing Chu Tang’s name on the screen, Shi Sheng’s face darkened.

‘I send him messages everyday but he only ever replies when he feels like it. If he doesn’t he completely ignores me. What’s he calling for now?’ With that in mind, she let the phone ring for about 10 more seconds before picking it up.

“Come downstairs.” Two simple words in an unhurried voice was all she got before all she could here were the sounds of people busying themselves.

Shi Sheng, “…” ‘Damn you!’

She got up to take a look out the window and as expected saw a Porsche parked downstairs. Shi Sheng definitely recognised Chu Tang’s car. For the sake of that damnable hidden quest, Shi Sheng could only pick up her bag and head outside.

“I thought she wasn’t staying in the dormitory? Why did she suddenly decide on moving back?”

“Dunno, she was here when I got here.” Xia Ning shrugged.

The other girl humphed in disdain. “She must be kept by somebody. We’ve hardly ever seen her come back to the dorms and she’s wearing all branded clothing. Maybe she got dumped so she moved back in?”

“An’an, how could you say that about Chengyue…” Su Yiyi spoke in a soft voice.

“I didn’t say anything wrong. Look at how proud she’s acting, who’s she looking down on eh?”

Xia Ning ran to the window and looked out just in time to see Shi Sheng knock on the car window. “Hey, come check it out, that car’s a Porsche right?”

An’an and Su Yiyi both went to the window side, upon which their gaze was immediately drawn to that eye-catching car. They only saw Shi Sheng seem to exchange a few words with someone on the car before opening the door and getting on.

“Look I was right, wasn’t I? She’s totally being kept.” Though An’an’s tone was filled with disdain, her eyes couldn’t hide the envy she was feeling. ‘That’s a Porsche. Someone who can own that kind of car definitely has a high status!’

Su Yiyi gave a forced smile. “We shouldn’t stick our noses into other people’s business.”

Due to Xu Chengyue hardly ever showing up, and hence having little time to interact with her dormmates, only Su Yiyi knew that Xu Chengyue was from a rich family.

They weren’t able to mingle with the elite class. Even if they heard some rumours from someone, those people would always refer to Xu Chengyue as Miss Xu. Added on to how Xu Chengyue hardly ever showed her face, it was no surprise they didn’t know about her family background.

……

Shi Sheng was dragged by Chu Tang to a high-class party filled with successful people; The type that would only be seen on the business and finance channel on TV. She really didn’t understand why Chu Tang wanted her to be his companion for the party.

By the time Chu Tang sent her back, it was nearly 11pm.

“Mr Chu, my appearance fee?” Shi Sheng extended her hand.

‘Those people at the party looked at me weirdly. I feel like I’ve been stared into a Swiss cheese, I need something to make it worthwhile.’

Chu Tang looked down at her hand before extending his hand to hold it.

“What are you doing, playing foul?” Shi Sheng jerked her hand back, dislike clear in her tone.
