The world of film and television begins with university lecturers

Chapter 110 You're Absolutely Broken

In the villa next door, Jiang Nansun was just about to go out to see why Zhu Suosuo hadn't arrived yet.

Therefore, upon hearing the arguing outside, he curiously pushed open the door and went out to investigate.

She immediately spotted her best friend Zhu Suosuo confronting a strange woman at the door. She quickly went over and gently tugged at her arm, saying, "Suosuo, stop arguing. Making a scene in public like this is unseemly. We're going out shopping, let's go home first."

Zhu Suosuo glanced at Jiang Lai resentfully upon hearing this, but with Han Tao present, she didn't want to appear too shrewish, so she let Jiang Nansun pull her into the house, avoiding the awkward situation.

The unexpected encounter with a love rival has thus temporarily subsided.

Jiang Lai gave Han Tao a deep look, her gaze exceptionally firm: "Alright, I won't keep you from going to school any longer, I'm leaving now."

However, as I said before, as long as you are not married, I have the right to pursue you fairly.

I'm serious, I won't give up easily, and I'll come back to you again.

After saying this, she didn't argue any further, and turned to get into her car, her pride shining through.

Then the engine roared to life, and the car slowly drove away from the old villa district on Fuxing Road.

Han Tao stood in front of his house, looking up at the direction the sports car had gone, and shook his head helplessly.

As he turned and went back to his house, he took out his phone and sent a message to Zhu Suosuo.

Having lived two lives, Han Tao has come to understand many things. Those protagonists who shone brightly in TV dramas in his previous life are nothing more than ordinary people in this world.

There's no need to deliberately try to please anyone, but if you really meet someone you get along with, it's fine to be together.

As long as it's consensual, he will never shirk his responsibilities; there's no need to be too serious about the rest.

Just like Jiang Lai in front of him, in his previous life Han Tao thought her mature and sophisticated image was particularly attractive, but that was only from the perspective of an ordinary office worker appreciating her.

Now, his mindset is completely different, and he no longer needs to cling to the perspective of his past life.

On the other side, Jiang Nansun pulled the furious Zhu Suosuo back to her living room, poured her a glass of water, and said, "Suosuo, don't panic. Drink something to calm down. That Jiang Lai was clearly provoking us on purpose."

She's using her family background to deliberately put you down, so there's no need to take her sarcastic remarks to heart and make yourself uncomfortable.

"Nan Sun, how can I not mind!" Zhu Suosuo sat down on the sofa in the living room and sighed deeply. "That Jiang Lai, she looks like she comes from a top-tier wealthy family. She's also very beautiful, drives a pitchfork, and her family background is something I can't even dream of matching."

The key point is that she said she would continue to pursue Brother Han as long as he didn't get married.

She's the eldest daughter of the Jiang Group, possessing connections and resources that most people could never even dream of.

She took a big gulp of water, her tone tinged with inferiority, "Look at me, firstly, I don't have any impressive academic qualifications, secondly, I don't have any family background to support me, and the only thing I can do is be a little bit better looking than her."

If she's really determined to relentlessly pursue Brother Han, I'm honestly not confident; I feel like I have no chance at all.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Nansun sat down beside her and gently patted the back of her hand: "Suo Suo, you can't just look at things based on family background and appearance."

I don't need to say much about what kind of person Teacher Han Tao is; you should know very well after spending time with him.

He has such excellent qualities, yet he can devote all his energy to education, which shows that he has never had any intention of currying favor with the wealthy or caring about family backgrounds.

She paused here, feeling that just saying it like that wasn't enough, so she changed her perspective: "Besides, with Jiang Lai's spoiled personality, how could she possibly persevere?"

She certainly has no shortage of suitors, but most of them are probably driven by a sense of admiration after surviving a desperate situation, coupled with the conquering desire inherent in heiresses, making it difficult for such relationships to last.

But you're different. You and Teacher Han started from similar points. One of you grew up living under someone else's roof, and the other came from a small county town. You have a lot in common.

Believe me, relationships are never about comparing family backgrounds and wealth. What matters most is that two people share similar values, feel comfortable together, and understand each other.

As Zhu Suosuo listened to her best friend's advice, her tense shoulders relaxed a little, but the faint unease in her heart still hadn't completely dissipated.

"Nan Sun, I understand all the reasons you're giving, but a woman's intuition doesn't lie."

She hesitated for a moment, then leaned back on the sofa and muttered to herself, "It's easy for a woman to pursue a man, but this Jiang Lai is too aggressive and her intentions are too clear."

I'm always worried that she'll use the Jiang family's resources to get closer to Brother Han, and with this deliberate interaction day after day, Brother Han will inevitably be swayed.

The moment she finished speaking, a thought flashed through her mind: she had to speed up her development, otherwise she would be handing over the initiative to others.

Jiang Lai is the kind of person who won't stay put; she'll only take the initiative and push things forward step by step. If you continue to let things take their course, someone else will eventually seize the initiative.

Everything Zhu Suosuo wanted in her life, she always got through her own efforts.

Therefore, we must take the initiative to create opportunities, firmly grasp Brother Han, and finalize the relationship as soon as possible in order to completely extinguish Jiang Lai's thoughts or seize the initiative.

Just then, her phone, which was on the coffee table, vibrated slightly, and a WeChat message popped up. The sender was Han Tao.

It was only a few short paragraphs, not sweet words, but it accurately predicted her unease, and the care and comfort between the lines were very obvious.

In that instant, most of the sense of crisis, trepidation, and unease that had been lingering in Zhu Suosuo's heart dissipated, but her determination to take the initiative became even stronger.

Jiang Nansun glanced at the content on his phone screen and couldn't help but laugh and tease, "See, I was right, wasn't I?"

Teacher Han knows perfectly well what's going on, and she even took the initiative to send you a message to comfort you. Now you can finally put your mind at ease, right?

"Mm!" Zhu Suosuo's cheeks flushed slightly as she tapped the screen lightly in reply, "Thank you, Brother Han. I understand. I'll adjust my mindset."

After sending the message, he put away his phone and stood up. His whole demeanor was completely different. His previous gloom was gone, and his eyes showed a more determined look.

"Nan Sun, let's not talk about these troublesome things anymore. Let's hurry up and go out shopping."

I'm also thinking about what reasonable excuse I can find to contact Brother Han more often, preferably to make it a fait accompli.

"Zhu Suosuo, how dare you say such a thing? You're really wicked!" Jiang Nansun pouted, seeing right through her best friend's little scheme.

"That's called striking first," Zhu Suosuo smiled and urged, "Alright, let's hurry up, or Grandma and Uncle will start nagging when they come down."

Jiang Nansun nodded helplessly, took her small bag, and pulled Zhu Suosuo out of the mansion, heading towards her mother Daiyin's car. The two planned to drive to the mall today to load their things.

She learned to drive at the age of eighteen and often drove her mother's car to go out for fun. Zhu Suosuo also learned to drive early on and got her driver's license together with her.

The reason I don't usually drive is twofold: firstly, I'm still in school and don't want to be too conspicuous; secondly, I simply don't have the money to buy one.
