Obsessive Tycoon and His Swan Girl
Chapter 163 - 163 163 A Complete Contrast to Jiang Zhe

Chapter 163: Chapter 163: A Complete Contrast to Jiang Zhe Chapter 163: Chapter 163: A Complete Contrast to Jiang Zhe Pei Yuan said, “I’ll try my best.”

“About the medicine I mentioned before, you don’t have to deliver it; I’ll take it all with me today,” Jiang Zhe said.

Knowing she had brought a driver, Pei Yuan had no objections and had the medicine packed and sent to Qin He’s car.

Pei Yuan said, “There’s a mall nearby, I’ll buy some more things, and you can take them back for your friends.”

Jiang Zhe did not refuse.

Lin Huaiyuan and Qin He also went with them.

Lin Huaiyuan’s opinion of Jiang Zhe had completely changed by now.

Qin He was still shrugging, wondering if Jiang Zhe would really accept gifts from Pei Yuan?

It was nothing particularly special that they bought, just some nutritional and dairy products, but Pei Yuan didn’t hold back and bought a whole lot.

While in the mall, Jiang Fanyue saw Jiang Zhe shopping and paused for a moment.

“Fanyue, what are you looking at?” Han Jiayan asked.

“Aunt Gu, I think I saw my sister,” Jiang Fanyue said quietly.

Han Jiayan looked in the direction of Jiang Zhe and saw her shopping with several men.

For some reason, those men were revolving around Jiang Zhe, circling her like stars around the moon, putting her at the very center, and they bought quite a lot of things.

Han Jiayan was initially somewhat disdainful but then saw Pei Yuan and was surprised, “Isn’t that the renowned cardiac surgeon Doctor Pei?”

“Who is Doctor Pei?” Jiang Fanyue asked.

“A world-famous cardiac surgeon, a master of surgery, highly esteemed. How could he be mixing with Jiang Zhe?”

Although there was disparagement in her words, her tone was more envious.

In all of Beijing, who wouldn’t want to know Pei Yuan?

But with so many powerful people around Pei Yuan, people like them simply couldn’t get on the list.

The Han Family was only a middle-class household in Beijing; the chance to meet Pei Yuan was virtually non-existent, let alone for someone like her who had married out of Beijing.

This time, Jiang Fanyue had come to see Zhou Yaming, and she accompanied her back using the visit as an excuse, also hoping to reconnect with her own family and network more in Beijing’s circles.

That’s why they were shopping for gifts today.

Little did she expect, she hadn’t managed to make any connections yet, while Jiang Zhe was already out shopping with Pei Yuan.

Jiang Fanyue whispered, “Is that doctor so young?”

“Who knows how old he really is. Anyway, I heard about him a long time ago. How does Jiang Zhe know him?”

Hearing the envy and astonishment in her voice, Jiang Fanyue couldn’t help but feel a pang of sourness.

She whispered back, “Maybe my cousin introduced him. That one over there is my cousin, who works at the Pharmaceutical Research Institute, and has a good relationship with Jiang Zhe. The last time I went to see my cousin, he didn’t see me.”

Han Jiayan frowned upon hearing this, immediately realizing it was the cousin from Wangjia Alley.

She had also heard a few things from Gu Jiaheng before.

“Jiang Zhe is afraid you’ll take her social connections, so she will certainly speak ill of you. But what good are those connections to her? How long can she hold onto them?” Han Jiayan said, her disdain for Jiang Zhe rising.

She looked at Jiang Fanyue earnestly, “When you meet Professor Zhou Yaming, make sure to perform well. You have great prospects ahead and will definitely not be inferior to Jiang Zhe.”

Sooner or later, when Jiang Fanyue was truly established in Beijing, meeting Pei Yuan would be a matter of time!

Jiang Fanyue’s spirits lifted.

After buying the items, Pei Yuan sent Jiang Zhe off in the car.

When Qin He had arrived, the car was empty; by the time they returned, it was filled to the brim.

Watching them leave, Lin Huaiyuan originally wanted to ask Pei Yuan, but after some thought, he decided not to ask anything.

On this end, Jiang Fanyue had bought gifts and was visiting Zhou Yaming at his home.

Zhou Yaming didn’t usually care about these small gifts, but Jiang Zhe had really angered him last time, and now Jiang Fanyue was here with gifts, showing meticulous manners and utmost respect, which put him in quite a good mood.

“Did you have any original popular music pieces before?” Zhou Yaming asked.

“Yes, I’ve written some before,” Jiang Fanyue replied immediately. In fact, she hadn’t focused on this before but was very skilled at playing the piano. However, since she had come this time, she had certainly prepared well.

Zhou Yaming glanced at it and saw that it was far from the songs Miss J wrote for Xu Jin.

But Xu Jin had become famous throughout the land, and those songs were top-notch in themselves. Comparing them would be unfair to Jiang Fanyue.

Jiang Fanyue looked at him with earnest eyes.

From the moment she received the call until now, her attitude had been very submissive and polite, and the greetings on WeChat had never been missed.

Zhou Yaming usually didn’t care about these things, but compared to Jiang Zhe, Jiang Fanyue made him feel much more at ease.

He would not have been impressed with Jiang Fanyue’s abilities.

However, the thought in his heart was still very strong. It could be said that the displeasure he got from Jiang Zhe, he now needed a complete contrast to resolve it.

“Here’s the deal,” he said. “I won’t say much else. Before the college entrance exam, if you maintain your current academic performance and impress me with an original song, you can come directly to me and learn from me. Note, not learning with the students in my class, but from me, personally.”

A light sparkled in Jiang Fanyue’s eyes—learning from Zhou Yaming!

Being admitted to his class and learning from him personally were completely different concepts.

The former was at best a teacher-student relationship, while the latter was a genuine mentor-student relationship—a much closer connection!

She was so excited that her fingers trembled, and it took her a while to speak, “I will definitely work hard, Professor Zhou! I absolutely won’t let down your expectations! Please wait for my best work!”

Zhou Yaming was pleased with her attitude and pointed to the gift, “Take it back then, I appreciate the thought.”

Han Jiayan was waiting outside for Jiang Fanyue.

Seeing her come out with the gift, her mood suddenly dropped.

“Aunt Gu!” Jiang Fanyue beamed, “Professor Zhou said that if I can give him a touching original pop song before the college entrance exam, I can become his student!”

“Really? Why didn’t he keep your gift?”

“He said if he takes a liking to me, it’s for my abilities, no need for gifts or the like. My studying well is enough!”

Han Jiayan was naturally thrilled that she had personally accompanied Jiang Fanyue to the National Conservatory of Music and gotten such results, “That’s great, then. You just focus on completing the assignments Professor Zhou has set for you. When you have some free time, I’ll introduce you to some friends in Beijing. That way, when you come to Beijing to study, you won’t be without friends.”

“Thank you, Aunt Gu!”

This was a double joy for Jiang Fanyue.

But she still had some regrets—if only Zhou Yaming had come to Jincheng and sought her out in front of so many people!

She wouldn’t have been looked down upon at the dinner party, losing so much face.

On the other hand, that Professor Fan Yin had approached Jiang Zhe… she wondered if Jiang Zhe had agreed?
