Chapter 871 Your Great-Aunt is Here
"Senior Yu Tong?"
Shen Lu frowned subconsciously.
She remembered that the two had only met once before, and now they had run into each other again?
When did schools become so small?
After meeting once, is it possible to run into each other frequently?
"Junior, since we've run into each other, could you please do me a favor?"
Yu Tong pretended to be distressed.
If it were someone else, seeing the handsome but melancholic senior in trouble, they would definitely choose to help without hesitation.
But he happened to encounter the heartless Shen Lu.
"Sorry, senior, I'm very busy and have classes, so I probably can't help you with anything."
Shen Lu refused almost without thinking.
This person clearly has ulterior motives; Shen Lu must be out of her mind to associate with him.
Do you really think rich girls are all fools who can be easily fooled with a flick of the wrist, and then willingly become your stepping stones?
And you know what? That's exactly what Yu Tong really thought.
From childhood, thanks to his outstanding appearance, he was always successful with women.
Perhaps in Yu Tong's view, Sheng Yanran and Shen Lu were considered rather difficult to deal with.
Compared to Sheng Yanran, he valued Shen Lu more, and there were reasons for that.
Shen Lu is young and focused on her studies; it's obvious that she's lacking in love.
If he gives her even a little warmth, she might never forget him.
Of course, this was within Yu Tong's expectations.
Now that he was being rejected so bluntly, Yu Tong's smile froze for a moment.
"It won't take up too much of your time; this matter concerns Yanran!"
"Yanran is your cousin, you must care about her a lot, right?"
Using Sheng Yanran as bait, this person is indeed quite clever.
As the other party had hoped, Shen Lu's eyes showed a hint of worry: "What happened to my sister?"
"It's really nothing serious. Class is about to start, so how about I treat Shen to dinner after class and we can talk in detail then?"
Seeing that Shen Lu had taken the bait, Yu Tong was naturally not going to give up so easily.
Shen Lu was curious to see what Yu Tong was really up to.
"I have something to do at noon, so I don't have time."
"What about tonight?" Yu Tong still wouldn't give up.
"I don't have time tonight either." Shen Lu had to have dinner with her grandmother and didn't want to waste time with Yu Tong at all.
She never even considered ordering a huge table of food and making Yu Tong pay the bill.
Because if you eat a meal with someone like that, they will definitely try to make up for it. Although Shen Lu is not afraid, she does not want to get chewing gum stuck to her.
"So, when is Junior Shen free?"
If Yu Tong can't see that the other party isn't very willing, then he's wasted his time.
His expression remained unchanged, appearing to be accommodating to Shen Lu.
Shen Lu thought for a moment: "I didn't have classes in the last two periods of the morning, so I was planning to go to the study room."
"Then shall I take up one of your class periods, Shen, and invite you out for coffee?"
Shen Lu agreed.
Yu Tong finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Then it's settled, junior. Class is about to start, so I won't take up any more of your time."
"Shall we go to the teaching building first?"
Shen Lu hummed in agreement and walked forward in silence.
Yu Tong soon realized that he couldn't keep up with Shen Lu's pace.
He was already quite fit from learning to dance, but he never expected Shen Lu to be so fast. Was she afraid of being late for the classroom?
He glanced at the time and quickened his pace to catch up with Shen Lu.
In fact, he didn't need to go to the teaching building at all today; he could have just gone to the dance studio to practice.
The dance studio on this side of the teaching building is actually not as good as the one in the other building.
This is why Sheng Yanran and Shen Lu, although in the same school, don't have many opportunities to meet.
After Shen Lu finally reached her floor and said goodbye to Yu Tong, Yu Tong secretly left the teaching building.
"Why was there a guy walking with you just now? I saw you two chatting and laughing, but I didn't dare to say hello to you."
Shen Lu had just arrived at the classroom when Qin Yue followed closely behind.
"Oh, that's a senior from the dance major, my cousin's classmate."
Shen Lu remained calm.
Those who had been eagerly listening to the gossip were somewhat disappointed.
Her classmates all knew that Shen Lu had a fiancé.
But the other students at the school don't know.
So there are quite a few guys who want to pursue Shen Lu.
However, this girl is often not at school, so there is relatively little gossip about her.
Previously, people were discussing that Shen Lu was so young to have a fiancé, which meant she wasn't leaving herself any way out.
She still has several years of university ahead of her. Can you guarantee that she won't meet a guy she's even more attracted to at school?
What will she do then?
Is she two-timing, or is she cheating on her fiancé and breaking off the engagement?
Rumors are circulating that Shen Lu's fiancé is quite influential. If the engagement is broken off, it'll be quite a spectacle, won't it?
However, only a small portion of them have dark thoughts.
Most people are focused on their studies and only listen to gossip occasionally.
They even hoped that Shen Lu wouldn't ruin the atmosphere of their academy.
Those three in Qin Yue's dorm are already outwardly friendly but inwardly at odds.
They don't usually go out together anymore.
However, the three of them were in agreement on disliking Shen Lu and Qin Yue.
So now, the women sitting together are also eavesdropping.
"Your cousin's classmate is quite good-looking, the kind of handsome guy with a great presence."
Qin Yue was drawn to his physique; he was instantly adorable.
She was just saying it casually; she hadn't even been in a relationship yet. She simply admired every handsome guy, otherwise she would be doing a disservice to God's gifts!
“He is quite handsome, but…” Shen Lu deliberately dragged out the last syllable.
This sound successfully piqued Qin Yue's interest.
"But what?"
"She already has someone she loves."
Shen Lu said that on purpose.
Even if Qin Yue really falls for Yu Tong, that scheming person, it won't work out.
At most, he'll be hanging by a thread by Yu Tong.
Because Yu Tong only wanted to find people who could help his career.
Although Qin Yue's family is not short of money, they all work in the medical field, which is not very helpful for Tong's career.
Even if we could really help them find connections, the Qin family might not be willing.
Actually, people in hospitals don't need to worry about not having connections; the key is whether people are willing to let you use them.
Someone like Yu Tong, who only wants to climb the social ladder, definitely doesn't meet the Qin family's standards for a son-in-law.
"Oh haha."
Qin Yue simply sighed.
"Would you like to have lunch together?"
As soon as get out of class ended, Qin Yue asked.
She was going to the study room later, and if they were having lunch together, she would drag Shen Lu to the study room with her.
This way, the two of them can also have a chat.
She can ask Shen Lu if she doesn't understand anything.
This is much more convenient than looking up information.
Shen Lu suddenly remembered that Ms. Qin was Qin Yue's grandniece.
If Qin Yue knew that Ms. Qin had come to the capital and didn't tell her, it seemed rather unkind of her.
"Your great-aunt just arrived in the capital last night. Why don't you come with me to welcome her home at noon?"
Qin Yue glared: "So, your great-aunt came last night, but you weren't planning to tell me?"
If she hadn't asked if she wanted to have dinner together, Shen Lu would have completely forgotten about her!
