C59 Being Mistaken for a Gigolo He Was Envious and Jealous
Lin Dong had finished packing while his roommates were still fast asleep.
It seemed they had stayed up all night gaming and were now catching up on sleep during the day.
Lin Dong didn't wake them; instead, he quietly left the dormitory.
Once outside, he texted Han Qingxue to ask if she was driving. If not, Lin Dong was ready to take his Pagani Huayra out for a spin.
Han Qingxue replied that she had driven and told him to just come outside.
With his car keys in hand, Lin Dong made his way straight to the university gates.
Mornings at Jiangyang University were generally laid-back.
The sun cast a gentle glow over the entrance, bathing the arriving and departing students in warm light.
Today, there was an unusually large gathering of students near the gates, mostly male.
They stole glances at a woman standing near the entrance—Han Qingxue.
After talking with Lin Dong the previous day, she knew he wasn't upset with her.
He had even invited her to assist with a property transfer.
Eager to provide top-notch service, she had arrived at seven in the morning.
Today, she had forgone her usual professional attire for a white dress with delicate cut-out patterns, accessorizing with a Chanel bag slung over her shoulder and her wavy hair cascading down her back.
The breeze played with her hair, making her look like a figure from a painting, poised and ethereal.
Han Qingxue was accustomed to interacting with the wealthy and influential, and her professional experience lent her a mature and composed air. Her beauty and poise drew eyes wherever she went.
The students, unaccustomed to such an impressive presence, watched her with a mix of awe and longing.
A couple passed by, laughing and sharing a milk tea, the girl sipping from it affectionately.
But when the boy caught sight of Han Qingxue, his eyes widened in astonishment.
Her striking beauty and aura made his heart skip a beat.
Next to Han Qingxue, the girls from the academy seemed less alluring.
Though he had been devoted to his girlfriend, the sight of Han Qingxue opened up a whole new world for him, and suddenly his girlfriend didn't seem quite as appealing.
"What are you looking at? Hey! I'm talking to you!"
The girl nudged her boyfriend.
"Ah? What did you say?"
The boy snapped back to reality.
Yet, his gaze remained locked on Han Qingxue, his eyes alight with fervor and timidity.
The girl followed his gaze and instantly felt a surge of anger.
Her own boyfriend was so captivated by another girl. Unacceptable!
"You're mesmerized by that beauty, aren't you? Come on, let's see how I'm going to handle you!"
She quickly grabbed her boyfriend by the ear, and amidst his yelps of pain, she dragged him away.
In the distance, the boy's cries of pain and pleas for mercy echoed.
Han Qingxue witnessed the scene and couldn't help but smile.
Bathed in sunlight, her features seemed to glow, making her incredibly enchanting.
The sight stirred the hearts of other boys.
She was breathtaking!
Han Qingxue remained unfazed by their stares.
At her level, her understanding of affection was profound. The infatuations of these young men seemed superficial to her.
She yearned for a deeper connection, one that evolved from initial superficiality to a hidden, fermenting richness. A feeling that was more rational yet purer—that was the emotion she sought!
She glanced at the Stan watch on her wrist; it was precisely nine o'clock.
Lin Dong should be arriving soon.
As the thought crossed her mind, Han Qingxue spotted a handsome figure at the entrance of Jiangyang University.
It was Lin Dong.
He was dressed simply, yet he had changed into fresh clothes.
Despite his modest means, Lin Dong was impeccably clean.
Han Qingxue's demeanor softened as she approached him with a bright smile, "Hello, Mr. Lin!"
Her stunning makeup made an impression on Lin Dong.
Han Qingxue looked even more attractive than she had the day before. Her professional attire had seemed somewhat rigid, but today's dress allowed her natural elegance to shine through effortlessly!
She was more beautiful and captivating than ever!
Catching Lin Dong's gaze, Han Qingxue modestly lowered her head and said, "Mr. Lin, my car is parked just ahead. Please, follow me."
Lin Dong regained his composure.
Following the incident with Zhang Xiaofeng, he had experienced a spiritual elevation. While Han Qingxue was certainly attractive, he placed greater value on her capabilities.
Led by Han Qingxue, Lin Dong accompanied her to a roadside parking spot where a Porsche sports car was parked.
For someone of Han Qingxue's stature, driving a sports car was no issue; she was the epitome of financial independence.
Lin Dong was admittedly taken aback.
With a warm smile, Han Qingxue graciously opened the passenger door for Lin Dong, inviting him to take a seat.
She then settled herself in the driver's seat and started the car for Lin Dong.
Once Lin Dong was settled, Han Qingxue offered him a delicately prepared breakfast, saying, "Mr. Lin, please have something to eat to tide you over. It's been kept warm, so you can enjoy it right away."
Lin Dong accepted the breakfast and noticed it was still hot, steaming invitingly.
Han Qingxue's attention to detail was truly beyond reproach; she was considerate in every aspect.
Lin Dong was thoroughly pleased with Han Qingxue.
He expressed his gratitude and began to eat.
Meanwhile, Han Qingxue drove off with meticulous care.
The scene inside the sports car caught the attention of the onlookers, particularly the boys who had been admiring Han Qingxue.
They watched in disbelief as their idol, Han Qingxue, humbly escorted Lin Dong to the car and tenderly offered him breakfast before driving away.
She was treating Lin Dong, who appeared so ordinary in his attire, with such deference and thorough care.
Their jealousy was palpable, driving them to the brink of madness.
Some boys were so agitated that they took to banging their heads against the nearest lampposts!
Indeed, comparisons can be maddening. At that moment, Lin Dong became the object of both envy and ire.
