Chapter 54: 054 Visit

Zhao Yiling struggled to suppress the excitement in her heart and tried to speak in as calm a tone as possible, "It’s Li Hanjiang."

Her eyes twinkled with light.

She had not expected that Li Hanjiang would take the initiative to ask her out, especially since after that night, she and Li Hanjiang no longer had any further interactions.

Moreover, she and Li Hanjiang had not exchanged phone numbers.

Now, with Li Hanjiang actively reaching out to her, his intentions were quite clear.

The most respected man in Capital City was contacting her, and Zhao Yiling felt like her heart was no longer her own.

Li Ruyu couldn’t stop smiling, "So what did Mr. Li say?"

She knew that her daughter’s charm was irresistible. Looking across all of Capital City, who could surpass her own daughter’s excellence?

Zhao Yiling took a deep breath, her cheeks quietly flushing with two spots of red, "Mom, he said he wants to visit our home on Sunday and asked me to inquire if it would be convenient for you."

Li Hanjiang wants to visit in person?

This revelation was so overwhelming that Li Ruyu felt a bit dizzy.

After a moment, she regained her composure and excitedly said, "Convenient, very convenient. I’ll go tell your father right now to cancel all his plans for Sunday so we can properly entertain Mr. Li."

With Li Hanjiang, a true powerhouse, no one in the circle of noble ladies would dare look down on her again!

The social circles of the noble ladies each had their own spheres, which together formed one large circle.

The so-called circle of noble ladies is all about comparison.

Comparing husbands, skincare products, wealth, children...

Whoever wins the comparisons becomes the standout of the circle, the victor in life.

And the object of envy among all the noble ladies.

In that circle, there were quite a few people whom Li Ruyu hated with itching teeth but couldn’t do anything about.

From now on, Li Hanjiang was going to be her son-in-law, and then she could strut freely in the circle of noble ladies. Who would dare to say a word against her!

Thinking about it made Li Ruyu even more excited.

In contrast to Li Ruyu’s unabated excitement, Zhao Yiling was relatively calm. She nodded, "Then mom, you get ready. I’m going to visit Dr. Tian Luo first."

Zhao Yiling slipped her phone into her pocket and did not immediately reply to Li Hanjiang’s message.

At this moment, she needed to stay clear-headed and not let herself be overwhelmed by happiness.

With someone like Li Hanjiang, you couldn’t chase him too desperately. You had to be slightly reserved with him, coldly indifferent at times.

After all, what you can’t get is always stirring your desire.

What’s easily obtained is often taken for granted.

All men have this inferior nature.

Moreover, with a magnate like Li Hanjiang, women threw themselves at him like carps crossing the river every day.

She couldn’t follow the flow any longer.

She had to do the opposite, letting Li Hanjiang know that she was different from those vulgar and cheap women out there.

**

At South Bridge No.2 Middle School, Class 10, during the lunch break.

Miao Xinran was holding her cell phone, and her face was full of excitement as she played a game.

Chu Jin, on the other hand, was wrestling with a challenging math problem.

Just then, Zi from the Tian Luo space warned, "Jin, the system detected that someone is trying to harm you!"

"Harm me?" Chu Jin raised an eyebrow, "Who?"

The previous Chu Jin was extremely timid, always bullied by others, and with no strength to fight back.

After her rebirth, she didn’t seem to have offended anyone.

Chu Jin really couldn’t think of anyone who would want to harm her.

Zi nodded with an inscrutable expression, "Yeah, and not just one, their enmity levels are all over 90%!"

Chu Jin narrowed her eyes slightly, "That serious? Can you detect who it is?"

A 90% enmity level, that clearly indicated a murderous intent.

Zi shook her head, "The system doesn’t have that high level of access yet, but if you consider upgrading the system, it can unlock that ability."

"Sure, let’s upgrade," Chu Jin replied without a second thought.

After all, her life was at stake, as her enemies lurked in the shadows while she was exposed.

Zi tore open a pack of spiced melon seeds and said excitedly, "Upgrading costs 20% of Faith Value, Jin, how many levels shall we upgrade?"

Chu Jin touched her chin thoughtfully, "Forget it, let’s not upgrade for now."

Zi: "..."

*What should I do if my host is too stingy? Anxiously waiting online!*

After moping for a while, Zi quickly bounced back and started cracking melon seeds in the air with a crunch.

She was crunching away when she suddenly stopped and looked over in the distance with a frown, a face that couldn’t stand it anymore.

Chu Jin also looked curiously in the direction Zi was gazing at.

She saw a male classmate throwing away trash and walking back to his seat.

Nothing special.

Chu Jin asked curiously, "What are you looking at?"

Zi said with a look of anger, "It’s so irritating, the guy who just drank yogurt didn’t even lick the lid! What a waste!"

Chu Jin looked baffled, "... Should I go pick it up and lick it for you?"

Zi huffed, "Jin, you’ve changed!"

Chu Jin raised an eyebrow, "No! It’s you who’s changed!"

Just then, a figure walked up and stopped beside her.

A hand with distinct knuckles placed an English test paper in front of her.

At the same time, a scrutinizing gaze fell upon Chu Jin.

It was without malice, more curious and appraising.

Chu Jin instinctively looked up and saw a tall and thin figure with handsome, well-defined features and a light smile, exuding a somewhat youthful air.

It was Zhang Fangyi, their class’ English representative, a sunny and helpful big guy who loved basketball.

He had a decent family background, and many girls in the class secretly had crushes on him.

"Classmate Chu," Zhang Fangyi began politely, "the English teacher wants you to visit her office."

"Okay, thank you." Chu Jin nodded and stood up to walk in the direction of the office.

As soon as Chu Jin left, Miao Xinran put down her phone, grabbed Zhang Fangyi by the collar, and asked, "What does Ms. Wu want with our Jin all of a sudden?"

Miao Xinran was always straightforward, and as she’d say, "We’re all children of the jianghu, spirited individuals, why bother with such trivial manners?"

But Zhang Fangyi was different; he was always a well-mannered and scholarly student.

He had never been so close to a female classmate before. His face flushed red, and he stammered, "I-I-I... don’t know..."

To get from Class Ten to the office, one had to pass by Class Nine and a long corridor; the office was at the end of it.

When Chu Jin was passing through the corridor, she saw Liu Yike coming out of the office.

In her eyes was an unmistakable look of triumph as she saw Chu Jin.

As she brushed past Chu Jin, she whispered in a voice only the two of them could hear, "Chu trash! I’ll let you know the consequences of offending me!"

A deep malevolence flickered in Liu Yike’s eyes, mixed with a bit of excitement.

After speaking, she walked on with her head held high and chest out.
