A sophomore in college starts by getting a marriage certificate with a female CEO.

Upon hearing this...

Li Xixue's face flushed red instantly.

She turned her head to look out the window.

However, the red marks on her ears could not be hidden.

She opened her mouth, wanting to refute, but found that she couldn't come up with a rebuttal.

After all, it was she who suggested coming to the beach to discuss business first.

But she certainly couldn't answer like that.

Otherwise, what about their reputation?

It's impossible to say that I've been annoyed by the company's problems these days and just want to find someone to get away from and relax, right?

Li Xixue bit her lower lip and said, "I just... made up an excuse in front of Uncle Wang."

"Made up?"

"Yes, it was made up."

"So getting up early to pick out a swimsuit was also a fabrication?"

"I was checking work emails!"

"A bikini in a work email?"

"Lu Yang!"

Li Xixue finally turned her head to glare at him, her face already flushed red, burning from her cheeks all the way down to her neck.

"Try saying that again?"

Lu Yang wisely kept quiet.

See, she's getting anxious.

This proves that I was right.

However, he did not refute it; a woman in a fit of anger is not someone to be trifled with.

Li Xixue turned her face back to the window.

She crossed her arms in front of her chest and leaned closer to the car door, creating distance between herself and Lu Yang.

Whether you believe it or not is none of my business.

"Mmm, it's okay."

"I brought a swimsuit because it was a business trip and I wanted to relax. Any normal person would bring one when going to the beach."

"Mmm, it's normal, it's normal."

"It has nothing to do with you."

"Mmm, it's okay, it's okay."

Lu Yang responded with a "hmm".

His tone was so irritating, it just screamed "I want to punch him!"

Li Xixue was so angry she wanted to grind her teeth.

She wished she could kick this person off the car right now.

But she held back.

Since we were still in the car, it wasn't convenient to take action.

She remembered this grudge.

"and."

Li Xixue spoke again, her tone stiff and unnatural: "The white swimsuit I bought wasn't because you said you liked white. I just thought... it looked nice."

Lu Yang raised an eyebrow: "I didn't ask anything."

"..."

Li Xixue froze for a moment.

It’s over.

Another trick.

Lu Yang didn't pursue the matter further, but the expression on his face said it all.

Li Xixue didn't want to talk anymore.

That guy is awful. Every time I talk to him, I end up embarrassing myself.

……

A few minutes later.

The van was parked in front of the hotel.

The two got off the car.

Li Xixue walked ahead, her steps quick and her high heels clicking crisply on the ground.

All she wanted to do was get back to her room and erase that conversation from her memory.

however.

She stopped in her tracks as soon as she reached the hotel lobby entrance.

at this time.

A group of people were standing at the entrance.

Several young people, both men and women, were gathered together, dragging suitcases and arguing.

Lu Yang saw it too.

Then, his pupils contracted slightly.

Because among this group of people, there were several faces that he recognized very well.

"No way..."

Lu Yang muttered something under his breath.

The group of people in front of me are all my classmates.

Leading the way was Yuan Xiangrong.

He wore a flashy Hawaiian shirt and sunglasses around his neck, looking exactly like a nouveau riche on vacation in Sanya.

Wang Ziying was standing next to him.

She wore a white dress, her hair was down, and she was pulling a pink suitcase.

Besides the two of them, there were several other classmates.

What's remarkable is that even his roommates Wang Hao, Li Yunbin, and Xu Guangkun were there.

In addition, there are counselors Zhang Dalei and Lao Zhao.

The group of people were gathered outside the hotel reception desk, and they looked rather unhappy.

"What do you mean there are no rooms available? We booked a week in advance!"

Yuan Xiangrong's voice came from the crowd.

He was the one who initiated this trip to the beach, and everything had been arranged, but now the situation has changed, and the rooms he booked are no longer available.

The receptionist looked troubled and said, "Sir, I'm so sorry, but these past few days have been peak holiday season, and your room reservation was cancelled due to a system problem. Our hotel is indeed fully booked right now..."

"So you're telling us to sleep on the streets?"

Yuan Xiangrong slammed his hand on the front desk, clearly furious.

More than anger, he cared about saving face.

You should know that, in addition to the students, the teachers were also invited today.

He also confidently assured everyone that he would take care of everything for this trip.

Now look what happened, it's all gone wrong?

Several classmates nearby also chimed in.

"That's right, we came all this way, and now you're telling me there's no place to stay?"

"This is outrageous! I've already taken my pants off, and you're telling me I can't go in?"

"Can't you think of a way? I'll even pay more!"

The receptionist shook her head regretfully: "I'm so sorry, there's no more money available."

Upon hearing this, the group began to discuss among themselves again.

"What should we do then?"

"How about we check out other hotels?"

"I just checked, and this area is basically full at this time..."

Counselor Zhang Dalei and Lao Zhao both frowned.

"If all else fails, how about we go find Lao Yang?"

Wang Hao suddenly suggested.

Li Yunbin nodded quickly: "Yes, yes, Lao Yang knows a lot of people, maybe he really can help."

Yuan Xiangrong laughed: "Lu Yang? What could you possibly need him for? Besides, isn't he working at a bubble tea shop right now?"

"What do you mean, working at a bubble tea shop? How dare you talk like that? They're the boss now," Xu Guangkun immediately retorted.

"If opening a shop with a loan counts as being a boss, then calling him a boss isn't wrong. Besides, his shop will only last a month at most; it'll definitely go bankrupt after that! Just you wait and see!"

Yuan Xiangrong crossed his arms and sneered.

Counselor Zhang Dalei and Lao Zhao looked at each other.

Zhang Dalei pushed up his old-fashioned glasses and asked, "What's going on? Didn't Lu Yang join the Snowfield Group?"

This is exactly what Yuan Xiangrong was waiting for.

He spread his hands, feigning a regretful expression: "Teacher Zhang, you didn't know about this?"

"Know what?" Zhang Dalei asked instinctively.

Yuan Xiangrong laughed and said, "Lu Yang? He was fired by the Snow Region Group a long time ago!"

Was he fired?

Zhang Dalei was stunned.

Old Zhao was also stunned.

Zhang Dalei frowned. "When did this happen?"

"I'm not quite sure exactly when, but it was a while ago."

Yuan Xiangrong shrugged. "Teacher Zhang, think about it. What kind of place is Xueyu Group? It's the leading enterprise in our city. How fierce is the competition? Lu Yang has neither an educational advantage nor any connections. With his qualifications, how long can he last?"

Done.

Yuan Xiangrong glanced at the students around him.

"Besides, the street where he opened his shop has dozens of milk tea shops, all of them big chain franchises. How can a college graduate with no experience or connections compete with them?"

Zhang Dalei pushed up his glasses and sighed.

To be honest, he had always had a good impression of Lu Yang.

When Lu Yang received an internship offer from Xueyu Group, he even sent a message in the class group to praise him.

But now that I hear what Yuan Xiangrong said, it does make sense.

In places like Xueyu Group, let alone undergraduates, even graduate students from prestigious universities face an alarmingly high attrition rate.

Lu Yang was already lucky to get in; it's normal that he couldn't hold on and was eliminated.
