On the other side, Qiao Chen was preparing to leave.
She had arrived in Rao City at four in the morning and did not return home as it was too late. Hence, she and Shen Jingyan stayed in a hotel.
At noon, Xu Xu and Cai Van, who knew she was returning from Beijing, called her to tell her that the class was preparing a party for her.
They wanted her to make a trip down to First High School.
If this had taken place a few days before, she might not have wanted to go.
After all, she had spent a month in Beijing and gained a lot of exposure living with Shen Jingyan and Wei Ling. She personally experienced the life of the upper class and felt some disdain towards these people in Rao City.
But she was in a great mood these few days.
Moreover, she had transferred out of First High School in such a hurry that it was embarrassing. Now that she was a student of Qing University and her ex-classmates wanted to celebrate for her, she agreed, with some intention to show off.
Since she was going to attend the party, she had to make sure that she was well-dressed. She spent so much time preparing that, by the time she left the house, it was already five in the afternoon, five hours after Xu Xu had called her.
Qiao Chen didn't mind the time. She picked up her belongings and had just stepped out of the door when she heard Shen Jingyan talking to a man.
"Brother Shen, what's with that Qiao Nian? I've asked Wei Ling, but she said you're closer to her. Do you know what's her background..."
Wei Dongshan paused midway when he saw Qiao Chen appear in his peripheral vision. He immediately turned to ask her.
