Chapter 240: Chapter 235: The Second Daughter Born Illegally

"Hey, have you guys secured your internships yet? Where are you all heading off to?"

"My family has already arranged everything for me. After I graduate, I’ll start as an agent in our company, get to know the workflow, and then gradually take over the business. What about you, Zhenzhen?"

"I’m different from you, an only child. The company belongs to my brother, so I’ll just get some shares. But my uncle is the head of Yuntai station, and he said that there will be a new variety show next year, and he’s already reserved a host spot for me."

"Being a host is so glamorous. With your uncle looking out for you, then after starring in a couple of TV dramas, you’ll become famous all over the country."

"And what about you, Lu Lu? Any plans after graduation?"

"Get married, what else? But Li Yong said that he’ll handle making money, I’ll just need to be happy and pretty every day."

"You’re really the luckiest, Lu Lu, getting engaged to Young Master Li so early and having him totally wrapped around your finger."

"Not at all!" Lu Lu giggled coyly, then glanced at Ye Xia with a hidden agenda, "Hey, Ye Xia, we haven’t heard you talking about your plans. You’re so beautiful and your grades are so good; you must have received a bunch of offers from TV stations, right? You might overshadow us all with your brilliance!"

"Yeah, Ye Xia, come on, tell us. Don’t keep us in the dark, let us celebrate for you."

The group of girls chat nonchalantly, but their conversation is actually a display of showing off before Ye Xia. They have long learned about Ye Xia’s background—her family doesn’t have much money. It’s true her grades are better than theirs, but none of the school’s professors seem to hold her in high regard, nor did she get any research recommendations! They wondered why she was being so arrogant in front of them.

"Nothing much, I’ve been busy preparing for the cultural performance and I have two papers to write. I haven’t decided on a TV station yet." Ye Xia smiled awkwardly. She did receive quite a few invitations from small local stations and some unknown web dramas, but if she mentioned it, these women would surely ridicule her.

"My uncle is a deputy director at the National Station; I heard that they are planning a program promoting ’Ye Qiu Technology’ and are looking for two new generation hosts from the school. Want to give it a try, Ye Xia? I can get you a spot," said Du Jian, seemingly considerate.

"Oh dear, Mr. Du, how can you not understand Ye Xia’s thoughts!" Before Ye Xia could speak, Zhenzhen, the girl named, looked reproachfully at Du Jian, "By suggesting that Ye Xia takes a shortcut, aren’t you insulting her? She definitely won’t accept it, right, Ye Xia?"

"Heh, yeah." Ye Xia forced a stiff smile, clenching her fists not because of Zhenzhen’s words refusing for her, but because she heard Ye Qiu’s name again.

Since the beginning of this year, she had frequently heard the name Ye Qiu on television and from classmates and teachers—all of them full of praise for Ye Qiu as a genius, as a savior. At first, she thought it was just someone with the same name, but then she saw an interview on TV and realized it was indeed that sister who had severed ties with their family.

How could Ye Qiu possibly be a genius? Isn’t she just a country bumpkin from a rural village?

Ye Xia still couldn’t forget that image of Ye Qiu when she returned from the countryside to the city: her messy hair, that lack of confidence in her eyes, the faded white shirt, the grubby pants, shoes coming apart at the seams. It was the first time city-bred Ye Xia had ever seen someone look so unsophisticated.

She’s my sister? Ye Xia thought disdainfully. She didn’t want such an uncouth sister. If her friends found out, they would probably laugh her to death. Plus, she would have to share a bed and a wardrobe with her.

Does she have fleas or lice on her? Will they bite me?

As a result, Ye Xia made a scene, adamant about not sharing a bed with Ye Qiu. It wasn’t until Ye Qiu had slept on the sofa for a few days that Ye Fu finally brought a one-meter-two small bed from somewhere. But even so, Ye Xia often forbade Ye Qiu from entering her room. With malicious intent, she thought, that bumpkin Ye Qiu didn’t deserve to step foot in her princess room!

Back then, Ye Qiu was so eager to please her, even when bullied she didn’t dare to complain, always had long bangs covering her face and held her head down in low self-esteem. But how has she now become the genius everyone talks about?

"Speaking of that Ye Qiu, she’s really incredible! Heard she’s even a year or two younger than us, and now she’s already a world-renowned figure. Many powerful and wealthy people want to meet her desperately."

"How can there be such a huge gap in intelligence between people? How did she invent all that technology?!"

"I heard that just by selling her patents, she could rival the richest person, but she didn’t sell. Lately, it seems like she’s been developing a holographic online game. Du Jian, did your uncle mention which technology of Ye Qiu’s he’s promoting? It can’t really be the holographic game, right? I’m really looking forward to it!"

"Bang!" Ye Xia was lost in thought and accidentally dropped her cup. She had never actively looked into Ye Qiu’s achievements, and only now did she realize how amazing and wealthy Ye Qiu had become.

"What are you doing! You almost spilled it on my shoes." Lu Lu moved aside with disdain.

Zhenzhen’s eyes twinkled as she joked: "Ye Xia, your name really resembles Ye Qiu’s. Both surnamed Ye, one Summer, one Autumn, could there be any connection between you two?"

"Eh, now that you mention it, Ye Xia and Ye Qiu do look alike!" Qingqing said earnestly as she pulled out her phone to search for Ye Qiu’s photo to compare with Ye Xia’s.

Lu Lu didn’t believe that if Ye Xia had such a solid connection with Ye Qiu, she wouldn’t show off about it. She teased: "I think you guys are overthinking it. If Ye Xia really was related to Ye Qiu, why would she still be sitting here drinking tea with us? Right now, she could easily get an interview with the national president if she wanted."

"That’s true." Qingqing shrugged her shoulders nonchalantly and put her phone away.

Only Du Jian, standing beside, cast a thoughtful glance at the absent-minded Ye Xia.

"This lecture is really enlightening."

"Alas, I heard the school has already waived classes for Senior Ye, not sure when we’ll get to see Ye Qiu again."

Ye Xia didn’t know what was the matter with herself, after the gathering with the rich second generation was over, she had unconsciously come to Qing University, and had been absent-mindedly following the conversation of two girls talking about Ye Qiu.

"You may not know, but the school has arranged a separate room for Senior Ye. It’s said that it’s to facilitate lectures given by Ye Qiu for the Computer Science department students, and even many professors are going to learn too!"

"Does that mean we also have a chance to attend her lecture?"

"Yes, but if we do, we can’t take up the seats of the Computer Science students. We can only stand and listen."

"Don’t even mention standing, I’d be willing to listen even from outside the classroom."

"Then let’s go together when the time comes."

"Sounds great."
