Chapter 568: Chapter 569 Sister Flowers Educated Youth 86_1

Shen Yuan stood at the entrance of the Medical University, watching the college students come and go, and to say she wasn’t envious would be a lie.

When she first heard the news that the college entrance exams had been reinstated, her heart truly fluttered, and she did try hard to review and prepare.

But it was because someone was working against her that she didn’t get into a university.

Even though Shen Jie had good grades while she was studying, it had been so long since she graduated; they were actually starting from the same starting line.

If she had been able to get into university, none of what happened afterward would have occurred, and she could have attended college openly and honorably.

It didn’t matter, though, she was there to receive re-education, but what of it?

It was precisely because of what had happened that she completely lost the possibility of getting a factory job.

Resigned to her fate, she could only be with Gao Jian, since both of them were directly abandoned by their families after the incident.

As for being abandoned by her family, left to live or die, Shen Yuan wasn’t particularly surprised.

But the Gao Family neither sent anything to Gao Jian nor did they correspond with letters; they acted as if they didn’t know about the incident.

It wasn’t until after they were released and returned to the Gao Family that they discovered Gao Jian’s younger brother had taken over their mother’s job.

They completely ignored Gao Jian upon his return, neither welcoming him nor speaking with him.

Shen Yuan knew that Gao Jian had not infrequently sent money home, so why was his reputation poor? Wasn’t it all because of trying to get money for the family that he got into trouble?

But it was just as well; now that he knew the Gao Family’s true colors, Gao Jian had given up on them, even more unwilling to think about subsidizing them again.

Shen Yuan looked down at her clothes again—nice, they were popular in the South.

She snorted coldly as she observed the so-called ’privileged’ students’ clothes. What did it matter if they were university students? Judging by their outfits, she really wasn’t impressed.

She could already imagine the envious look she would receive from a certain person once she saw Shen Jie.

Little did Shen Jie know that an old acquaintance was paying her a visit today. After finishing her duties as a resident assistant for the day, she began to pack up her things, ready to head back.

Between work and the hospital these past few days, she had been working nonstop. It had been a while since she had gone home to check in.

With no classes tomorrow morning, she planned to return home for a visit, otherwise, people might start thinking she was a missing person.

Shen Jie had no idea someone was looking for her, found her bicycle downstairs, and rode straight home.

Shen yuan knew that Shen Jie had been admitted to Medical University and then the entire family had moved to Capital City, but she had no idea where she was now.

She had thought it would take a lot of effort to find Shen Jie, but she hadn’t expected to get the news so easily.

What was more, Shen Jie hadn’t gone to work right after graduation; she had continued her studies instead.

Shen Yuan just couldn’t understand—wasn’t it enough for a girl to get a university degree? Why keep studying?

Doesn’t she consider that being overly qualified with diplomas would hinder her marriage prospects in the future?

Just as Shen Yuan was about to boast, she overheard someone talking about Shen Jie’s boyfriend.

What? Shen Jie had a boyfriend? How could Shen Yuan miss such significant news? She immediately pricked up her ears to listen.

Learning that Shen Jie’s boyfriend was Huo Lei, a fellow ’sent-down youth’ from the farm who had also been admitted to B University’s law department and was now pursuing a graduate degree,

She dismissed the notion of him being a man with limitless prospects. After all, he wasn’t a big money earner.

In Shen Yuan’s eyes, what counted as promising was all about how much money one could make.

If you don’t make a lot of money, there’s no such thing as being beyond measure. Just a graduate student studying law, what can they do, make a lot of money?

Even Gao Jian is better, even though he’s not a university student, he can make money though, he can buy her nice clothes and bags. What could a poor student boyfriend buy for Shen Jie?

But wait, wasn’t it said that Shen Jie went back home? Could it be that she’s living with that man now?

Even though she knew that Shen Jianshe’s family had already moved to Capital City, in her eyes, how could they possibly buy a house there? It must be a house allocated by their work unit.

Unfortunately, no matter how much she inquired, nobody knew where Shen Jie lived, which made Shen Yuan unhappy.

Although she couldn’t show off now, it didn’t matter. She already knew that Shen Jie would come to the school tomorrow afternoon for classes, which was enough.

She couldn’t believe that she wouldn’t see her if she waited for her here tomorrow. Anyway, she had to see Shen Jie’s envious look.

Shen Jie had no idea that Shen Yuan, who made a fortune from her business, desperately wanted to see her look envious.

Shen Jie had never imagined that Shen Jianshe, who always led a steady life and never thought about making a fortune, would actually propose buying a house.

And it was a house in the Q University old residential area. Although it was built before the liberation, the quality was quite good. What mattered most was the location and the school district was also not bad.

Plus, if their child grew up in such an environment, it would be a great influence.

"Normally, such a house should be occupied by the professors themselves or their children."

Shen Jie knew that after many old professors passed away, it was their children who moved in, all for the sake of connections.

"The children of the old professors went abroad, and when they died, no one even noticed." Shen Jianshe worked in the finance department and occasionally interacted with retired faculty and staff.

The old professor who had passed away was also someone Shen Jianshe had met, "He was a very cultured professor. After being vindicated in recent years, his children went abroad one after another."

"It sounds like they’re doing well, all the children went abroad and are living well overseas."

"As a result, when the old man got sick, there was no one to take care of him, and his death was also taken care of by the unit."

"When their children came back, they were not too saddened. They were just in a hurry to deal with the estate, intending to sell the house, saying they would never return."

"Really, what’s the use of raising children." Shen Jianshe truly didn’t understand how they could be like this.

"I was thinking that buying a set like that would be quite nice."

"Although it’s four thousand, the house is pretty nice, and the old man took good care of it."

Shen Jianshe just thought that such a good house for four thousand was an absolute steal.

To buy a house in the Q University old residential area for four thousand, that was a townhouse, was also pretty good.

But then again, it didn’t make sense. Shen Jianshe had only been here a little over a year. Initially, to buy a place to live, including the renovations, had nearly cleaned out the savings of the three elders and the money Shen Xiaohui gave to Huo Huo.

It hadn’t been long since then. Did he really have another four thousand now? Shen Jie looked at Shen Jianshe with confusion.

"My colleagues don’t know I’ve bought a house. I’ve always said that I’m house-sitting for someone."

"So if I buy that house, nobody will think too much of it." Shen Jianshe had left a margin right from the beginning.

Originally, he thought that he shouldn’t let people know he had money just after arriving in Capital City, especially since he was still hoping to get a house allocated by the work unit.

To his surprise, he didn’t get a work unit house but ended up buying one, "It’s just that in the future, if the unit does allocate houses, we won’t get a chance."

Shen Jianshe later found out why no one wanted to buy that house: aside from the price not being cheap and requiring cash payment,

it was also known who bought the house. Once you bought it, you would lose the chance to get a house if the unit allocated one, which nobody wanted to see happen.
