Chapter 194: Chapter 194 Zhou Hongjin’s Confession5_1

Jiang Biyun and Chen Xiting didn’t return to the dorm until after eight in the evening. They initially planned to go with He Zhilan, but as Zhilan couldn’t find someone to help her at the library, the two of them decided to leave her behind and have fun by themselves.

"He Zhilan, even though you couldn’t come, Jiang Biyun and I still brought back a souvenir from the scenic spot for you. It’s a small bamboo and rattan decorative item and it’s incredibly beautiful!"

Both of them came back together, but there was a clear emotional gap between them.

The moment Chen Xiting returned, she started showing Zhilan the photographs they had taken during their outing, even brought back a souvenir for Zhilan. These photos were taken at the scenic spot with vintage cameras, the cost of developing a single photo was twice as much as the normal ones.

Zhilan found herself somewhat enchanted as she flipped through the photos. She has always loved scenic nature spots, and the place where Jiang Biyun and Chen Xiting went was as beautiful as a fairytale land.

"Beautiful, isn’t it?" Chen Xiting laughed, "You really missed out by not going! Jiang Biyun and I ran into our military training instructor, Lin Deng, on our way back. He treated us to dinner and even drove us back to the school gate!"

"You ran into Lin Deng?" He Zhilan was surprised. She had a vague idea of Jiang Biyun’s feelings for Lin Deng. Since they unexpectedly ran into Lin Deng, shouldn’t Jiang Biyun be even happier than Chen Xiting?

"Right! Our luck was crazy!" Chen Xiting responded, "You wouldn’t believe how much more handsome the instructor looks in casual attire than in his military uniform!"

"I, on the other hand, think he looks better in his military uniform," Jiang Biyun suddenly chimed in, "At least it doesn’t create such a distance."

"What do you mean ’distance’?" Zhilan asked, puzzled.

"He Zhilan, if we hadn’t run into the instructor so coincidentally, we might never have known in our lives that a military school instructor came from such a wealthy family. He drives an imported car, wears designer clothes, even the Swiss watch on his wrist must cost a fortune! The key thing is, he took Jiang Biyun and me to a rather high-end restaurant for dinner today. Judging by his demeanor, he seemed to be a regular there and was quite familiar with the owner."

Upon saying all of that, Chen Xiting turned to look at Gu En’s empty seat, tutted thrice saying, "Lin Deng and Gu En grew up together and Instructor Lin Deng comes from an extraordinary background. Now it looks like Gu En also comes from a distinguished family?"

Even though Chen Xiting knew at the start of the semester that Gu En was a wealthy local from the capital, she hadn’t thought too much about how wealthy until today. Hearing Lin Deng mention his and Gu En’s situations, she realized that Gu En was not only wealthy but also the daughter of a powerful family.

Nobody responded, so Chen Xiting continued on her own, "No wonder she’s so arrogant. Normal people like us just don’t like her."

Chen Xiting’s words weren’t sour grapes, it’s just that Gu En’s personality was indeed not likable.

After hearing Chen Xiting’s words, Zhilan now understood why Jiang Biyun was in a low mood. Compared to others in the school, Jiang Biyun’s family was well-off, which gave Jiang Biyun enough confidence that she didn’t feel any burden even when she fell for Lin Deng. But today, an unexpected meeting with Lin Deng and getting to know him and his background better probably made Jiang Biyun feel disheartened due to the vast difference in their family
