Not only had Qiao Nan wished for it, she really joined the ministry.
Tang Jiayun could not help but throw the spoon back into the bowl, giving off a loud sound. True enough, her guess was correct. Perhaps the information on Qiao Nan's profile was false. She did not believe that Qiao Nan did not have any relatives who worked in the government. f𝙧𝘦𝚎𝑤e𝚋𝘯o𝘷𝗲Ɩ - 🅽🅽novel
"What's the matter with you? Tang Jiayun's boyfriend knitted his brows, feeling slightly displeased."Didn't you see that the soup has splashed out?"
Tang Jiayun smiled guiltily. Among all her boyfriends, the current boyfriend had the worst looks, but he was rich."Don't be angry. I was taken aback while watching the news. I didn't mean it." Tang Jiayun had an idea. Qiao Nan was cold and nonchalant; she would never give her classmates a helping hand.
Although Qiao Nan did not take the initiative to help her, she still had her way to stand to gain. She could make use of her name to get things to be in her favor.
"The news?" Tang Jiayun's boyfriend took a look at the news."I thought you hate watching this kind of news?" If he had not insisted, Tang Jiayun would have wanted to change channels to watch those useless dramas.
Tang Jiayun was about to explain when the camera zoomed in on Qiao Nan. Tang Jiayun screamed in delight."Look, it's her, it's her. She was my college classmate. We went to the same classroom for lessons in the four years in college. I did not expect that she would work in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs after graduation and become a diplomat!"
There was disbelief and amazement in Tang Jiayun's voice."Do you know that she used to stay in the same dormitory as me in my first year of college? We were roommates!" Tang Jiayun was really proud at the mention of her classmate, Qiao Nan. It was a rare opportunity to go on television. Not everyone would be able to achieve that.
Furthermore, Qiao Nan was a diplomat. Who would have such good fortune like her to be able to be classmates for four years with a future diplomat? They even stayed in the same dormitory in their first year of college.
"Really? Her boyfriend was somewhat skeptical."How could you know her?" No matter how much money his family spent, they would not have the chance to know people like the diplomat.
"Are you saying that you don't believe me? Wait a minute." They did not eat out today. Instead, they had their meals in Tang Jiayun's rental place. Tang Jiayun wanted to prove to her boyfriend that she was virtuous so that he would fall for her and he would put in good words for her in front of his parents. She hoped that they would accept her and they would get married as soon as possible.
Luckily, they had their meal in Tang Jiayun's rental place. Otherwise, Tang Jiayun could not come up with the evidence to prove to her boyfriend that she was telling the truth."Look, this is my graduation photo. Does this person look exactly the same as the person on television? She is very pretty. If she wasn't cold and nonchalant at school and seldom stayed in school apart from lessons, given her looks, she would have been the school belle at Peking University."
"Really?" Her boyfriend was surprised."You mentioned that the two of you were roommates in your first year of college, but what about the remaining years?" He knew that his girlfriend was vain. But he could not tell that apart from being a student from Peking University, she even knew such a capable classmate.
There was a sparkle of light in Tang Jiayun's eyes."She is a diplomat now. She is very competent. It is impossible for her to share a dormitory with poor students like us. She wouldn't want to be restricted by the rules and regulations. She wanted freedom, so she moved out to stay by herself not long after she started school. I heard that she had her own house in the capital..."
Tang Jiayun, who could not hold her head high in front of her boyfriend's family, was able to sit up straight because of this news.
Qiao Nan and Tang Jiayun were not closely related. No matter how successful Qiao Nan was, it did not concern Tang Jiayun.
However, one was marked by the company one kept.
Since Tang Jiayun and Qiao Nan, the diplomat, had a close relationship, this indirectly implied that Tang Jiayun was just as outstanding. Tang Jiayun's boyfriend came from a well-to-do family. They did not lack money. They only lacked an outstanding daughter-in-law who would make them look good.
Initially, they were glad that Tang Jiayun was a Peking University student and hence allowed their son to date Tang Jiayun. But they changed their mind a few weeks later.
It was common to have a Peking University student as a wife. Peking University might be established in the country, but it was a different situation when overseas. If they wanted to have a good daughter-in-law, they should be looking for students who came back from overseas study. They were too shortsighted to rejoice at finding a Peking University student as their future daughter-in-law.
In comparison, Tang Jiayun's future in-laws felt that Tang Jiayun was not as good. They told their friends to introduce a female student who returned from overseas study to their son. Seeing that things were not in her favor, Tang Jiayun prepared soups and meals for her boyfriend, hoping to gain his affection. It was her dream to get married into a wealthy family and enjoy life as a young mistress.
Now that Qiao Nan appeared on television, coupled with the fact that she was Tang Jiayun's former classmate, the female student who returned from overseas study had no hopes of getting the man. Tang Jiayun got her wish and she was engaged to her boyfriend. They had decided to marry and collect the marriage certificate one year later.
Tang Jiayun had always been good at toadying for personal gain. Although she had the worst relationship with Qiao Nan in school, and she was the one who rallied everyone to ostracize Qiao Nan and to fall out with her, she did not feel ashamed when she made use of Qiao Nan to make herself look better. She sounded cheerful and joyous when she spoke of Qiao Nan. People who did not know their history would have the impression that Tang Jiayun had a good relationship with Qiao Nan in school.
They were classmates for four years in college. No matter what, Tang Jiayun would have a better relationship with Qiao Nan than other people. If needed, they would definitely help each other out in the future.
Compared to Tang Jiayun, Yu Xiaoxiao and Lü Yan were not as smart.
Lü Yan had finally completed her four years of college. To her, those four years seemed to be like a nightmare. She could not wait to forget them and take it that it never happened. It was impossible for her to talk about the four terrifying years of her life upon seeing Qiao Nan on the television.
"Yan Yan, what is wrong with you?" Mother Lü took some vegetables and placed them in her daughter's bowl, telling her to have her meal instead of watching the television."You have been staring at the television for a long time, and you don't eat rice or vegetables. Don't they suit your taste? Should I fry some other dishes for you? Quit staring at the television. It's bad for the eyes."
"N-nothing. There is no need to fry more dishes. These dishes are tasty. Mom, the food you prepared is the best." Lü Yan felt ashamed at the love and concern that her parents had for her.
