Chapter 372: Don’t Pull Him Down
However, this year, this young lady from the Sheng family was in the limelight. Before she even arrived in the capital, all kinds of rumors had already spread. As her ability was really too outstanding, everyone thought highly of her. Furthermore, she even had a shocking identity. She was actually a famous jewelry designer.
All the major media outlets were also predicting that Yan City might make a comeback this time. It was very likely that she would help Yan City’s team suppress Imperial Capital’s team. She would be the first female champion in the business war in the history of Yan City High School.
Therefore, as soon as she entered, many people treated her as a thorn in their flesh.
The moment Lan Xiao saw her, he immediately shot a provocative glance at Gong Sheng before shrugging him off and walking toward Sheng Yang.
Gong Sheng stood still and watched with a smile.
As long as he was not pulled down, it did not matter how Lan Xiao courted death.
His friend at the side said blankly, “Gong Sheng, don’t you like her? Quickly go and greet her. Don’t let Lan Xiao do it first.”
Gong Sheng was so frightened that his palms were sweating. He smacked his friend’s forehead fiercely. “Don’t talk nonsense! If you say such things again, I might turn against you.”
With that, he looked around with lingering fear, afraid that others had overheard the comment just now.
His friend’s head hurt and his heart was in a mess. He could not understand.
Gong Sheng had been in love before, so he shouldn’t be this shy, right?
But then again, the eldest daughter of the Sheng family was really beautiful. Her aura was pure and beautiful. Even from so far away, one could tell that her skin was unbelievably good. It was so fair that it shone.
Lan Xiao was already in front of Sheng Yang. Fang Duo thought that he wanted to say something to Yangyang, so she took the initiative to step aside. Who knew that he would smile evilly and suddenly change direction, walking straight to Wen Zhiya instead. “Miss Wen, long time no see. I still remember the business war last year. You left a deep impression on me. You’re really a heroine.”
Wen Zhiya was confused at first. “Me?”
After receiving Lan Xiao’s affirmative nod, she was surprised, happy, and a little shy. “I didn’t perform very well last year.”
“Oh my God.” Lan Xiao deliberately exaggerated. “You didn’t perform well last year, yet you got such results. I’m looking forward to your performance this year even more. I believe you’ll definitely become the No. 1 of Yan City.”
He was going to such great lengths to praise her. Who wouldn’t like hearing compliments?
Wen Zhiya was about to speak, but Wen Zhiyi beat her to it and looked at Lan Xiao with a warm smile. “Young Master Lan, you’re too kind. My sister still has many shortcomings and needs to learn from everyone.”
It was clear Lan Xiao was treating his sister as cannon fodder. They should not be so foolish to greet him so happily.
Wen Zhiya was a little dissatisfied. Of course, she could see through Lan Xiao’s intentions.
However, her perspective was different from Wen Zhiyi’s.
What was so bad about being cannon fodder? Not only would it anger Sheng Yang but it would also get everyone’s attention. It was killing two birds with one stone.
“Gong Sheng, what are you doing?”
“Nothing.” Gong Sheng smiled. He was filming a video.
Since Lan Xiao liked to dance on the edge of a knife, he would send him off.
After Lan Xiao turned away from Wen Zhiyi and Wen Zhiya, he came to Sheng Yang. After what happened just now, Fang Duo and Ou Ye felt that he was going to cause trouble, so they forgot about their awkward situation. With one on the left and one on the right, they were like the knights beside Sheng Yang.
He had dragged Yangyang down during the business war. At this time, they had to be useful!
Lan Xiao ignored the two of them. They weren’t worthy of him to step on. He looked straight at Sheng Yang. “Oh… you’re the second miss of the Sheng family, right?”
