Chapter 386: Chapter 386: Chi Yue Hosts a Banquet
On Monday, during the public elective course, Chi Yue finally appeared in front of Xia Chuyi again.
According to Jiang Shuqin, these past few days, Chi Yue had been inviting this person and that person out to eat, literally using money to shut the mouths of those who gossiped about her.
Upon hearing this news, Xia Chuyi’s first response was, “Why not invite everyone to ‘Youwei’?”
Those in class 201 who knew she was the behind-the-scenes owner of “Youwei” fell silent collectively.
In the end, it was still Jiang Shuqin who grabbed her arm and gave it a shake, saying, “You’re addicted to hitting up the rich, aren’t you?”
Xia Chuyi remained incredibly calm, saying, “Chi Yue has caused me so much trouble, so why can’t I hit up a wealthy person for some compensation for mental distress?”
Mental distress compensation?” Jiang Shuqin laughed, “That actually makes perfect sense.”
There are some people and some things that just can’t be brought up.
No sooner had the classmates from 201 finished speaking than they saw Chi Yue come over and say to them, “I want to invite everyone out for a meal today, same old place, ‘Youwei’. All of you from class 201, come along.”
The classmates from 201 looked at each other.
These days, there really are rich people delivering themselves to be slaughtered.
“Oh, right!” However, Chi Yue quickly slapped her forehead and said, “I don’t need to invite Xia Chuyi, right?”
“After all, she works there; she can certainly eat her fill from the leftovers.”
The classmates from 201 shook their heads secretly.
Where are these leftovers coming from? Chi Yue probably hasn’t eaten at ‘Youwei’ even once…
Besides, if Xia Chuyi wanted to eat braised pork rice, would she need her to invite her?
Xia Chuyi nodded calmly and indifferently, telling Chi Yue, “Indeed, you don’t need to invite me.”
The collective inner voice of her classmates: because she can just make it herself.
Of course, they didn’t actually say that out loud.
By the time school was out, Chi Yue really did put on a very generous act, rallying everyone together.
Just as a flock of them were about to leave the classroom, suddenly the faculty advisor arrived.
“Xia Chuyi!” the faculty advisor called her.
“Teacher, is there something I can help with?” Xia Chuyi asked, looking quizzically at the faculty advisor who had come to find her.
The other students nearby couldn’t help but become curious as well.
All they heard was the faculty advisor saying with full admiration, “The History Department replied saying Professor Bao is very satisfied with you and wants you to continue the good work!”
“Chuyi, you’re doing an excellent job; you really do our faculty proud!”
“I heard that at the History Department, more than a dozen students failed before, but in the end, it was an outsider from our faculty whom Professor Bao decided to keep.”
As he said this, the faculty advisor couldn’t help but wear a hint of pride.
The task of assisting the professor was something all of her classmates knew about.
But no one expected Xia Chuyi to gain recognition from the professor, across departments no less!
For a moment, everyone looked at Xia Chuyi with envy.
Xia Chuyi smiled slightly, thinking to herself: Everyone probably thinks it’s the work she did for Professor Bao that earned her this praise, right?
Little did they know, it must have been the praise from Mrs. Gu, the real boss behind Professor Bao.
After telling Xia Chuyi this, the faculty advisor left.
“Wow, Chuyi, you’re amazing!”
“Chuyi, what kind of person is that professor, really?”
The focus of everyone there shifted from the meal to Xia Chuyi.
“You guys!” Chi Yue wanted to lose her temper, but quickly suppressed it, saying, “Alright, alright, it’s after school, let’s not talk about school matters anymore.”
“Let’s go to ‘Youwei’!” Chi Yue called out.
“Yeah, let’s hurry up and go eat!” Zhan Yi and the others were the first to respond.
