Fu Enterprise
Fu Tingyu sat upright behind his dark mahogany desk. His eyes were lowered as he worked.
But in his heart, he thought to himself. Why hadn’t he stopped her this morning and get her to choose a local university?
Imperial College was too far away.
At this moment, Shi Yan pushed open the office door and walked in. He walked up to the desk and handed the contract in his hand to Fu Tingyu. “Sir, it’s already done. The Xia family will lose more than a few billion this time.”
Shi Yan didn’t know why Fu Tingyu suddenly wanted to make a move on the Xia family. After all, there was no conflict of interest.
Fu Tingyu raised his eyes to look at the contract. He took it with his slender fingers and opened the folder. He glanced at the contract with his pitch-black eyes before handing it to Shi Yan. “How’s the development project of the Xia family in the northern suburbs going?”
Shi Yan took the contract and nodded. “It’s almost done. The Xia family is already in a tight spot. The development of the northern suburbs started in April.”
Fu Tingyu did not want to give the Xia family a way out. The development project in the north was the heart and soul of the Xia family, and they had injected a huge amount of money into it. If it was ruined, it would not only cost them money, but also manpower and financial resources.
Fu Tingyu trusted Shi Yan’s abilities.
“Don’t give them a chance to catch their breath.”
“I understand.”
Shi Yan had never let Fu Tingyu down. He took the contract and left the room.
Fu Tingyu continued to work.

Next to Class 305
Qin Ya had also selected Imperial College as her first choice. After that, she thought about how she had been ridiculed by her classmates just now. The culprit was still Qin Shu. That face of hers had already ruined but was cured. Qin Ya gritted her teeth fiercely when she thought of that face.
There was also the matter from last time. Qin Shu had clearly agreed to go but had not turned up in the end. Could it be that she knew something?
Qin Ya thought of this possibility and hurriedly went to find Qin Shu to ask her about it.
Qin Shu and Ye Xue had just walked to the door of the classroom when they bumped into Qin Ya who had just entered.
It was only then that Qin Ya saw that the dress Qin Shu was wearing today looked quite similar to Xia Yihua’s. However, she did not think too much about it because she did not look carefully either. Instead, she smiled and said, “Elder Sister, why didn’t you come when I asked you out last time? I waited for you for a long time.”
Qin Shu raised her eyebrows and looked at Qin Ya. She sneered to herself and said, “I had originally planned to go but something came up and I couldn’t go.”
Qin Ya heaved a sigh of relief when she heard that. As long as Qin Shu was still unaware, she still had a chance. “Is that so? I thought you had stood me up.”
Qin Shu looked at her with a faint smile. “How was the abandoned house when you visited it by yourself? There’s no air conditioning there, so it should be very hot, right? I wonder what time you stayed there till.”
When Qin Ya heard the words ‘abandoned house’, she thought of what had happened there. Her face couldn’t help but grow red out of shame and anger. She thought that it was Qin Shu who should have had to bear all that, but in the end…
She was so angry that she secretly gritted her teeth. “I went home since you didn’t turn up.”
At the same time
In the classroom corridor
A group of girls surrounded Xia Yihua and praised the dress she was wearing.
“Yihua, your dress is so beautiful. It’s the latest style.”
Xia Yihua saw that her classmates were looking at her dress and knew that they didn’t understand. So she pretended that it was an original design, “This dress was designed by the renowned designer Ms who had just come back from abroad. The pearls on it are worth tens of millions.”
“I’ve seen Ms on TV. The clothes she designed have been on the Paris fashion show. Every style is crazily expensive.”
“Only Yihua can buy the clothes designed by Ms that we can only see on TV. This time, we can see them from close up all thanks to Yihua.”
He Wan supported Xia Yihua so she would get free food and drinks. That was why everything that she said was flattery.
Shi Fei was not willing to be left behind. “Of course. You can tell that the price is not cheap just by looking at the pearls. Besides, the design by a famous designer is not something that ordinary people can afford.”
“I think I saw Qin Shu in the class next door wearing a dress similar to Xia Yihua’s,” whispered a student in the crowd.
“How is that possible? Ms only designs one dress in a certain style. Besides, how can Qin Shu afford to wear such an expensive, high-end, custom-made dress?” He Wan retorted hurriedly.
“Maybe Qin Shu is wearing a fake version? The price of the fake version is not even a fraction of the original,” Shi Fei also explained.
“Qin Shu is shameless. If she knew that the original was here, she would definitely take it off in a hurry to save face.” He Wan couldn’t help but cover her mouth and snicker.
Xia Yihua also felt that Qin Shu was definitely wearing an imitation. The original dress was so expensive and it was bespoke for someone else. How could Qin Shu be wearing it?
“Yihua, don’t be angry. Some people just can’t afford to wear the genuine dress so they wear an imitation version. She definitely didn’t expect someone to wear the same dress, much less the original,” Shi Fei fawned over Yihua.
“Look, Qin Shu is here,” the crowd hurriedly shouted when they saw Qin Shu coming out from the next class.
“Yihua, let’s stop her. We can show her how embarrassing it is to wear imitation clothes.”
Shi Fei, with Xia Yihua’s support, arrogantly looked at Qin Shu who was walking toward them. “Qin Shu, where did you buy your clothes?”
Qin Shu and Ye Xue walked side by side. They were about to go out to buy ice cream together, but they were stopped by someone.
“Qin Shu, are they looking for trouble?” Ye Xue whispered.
Qin Shu glanced at Shi Fei in front of her and said in a cold voice, “Does where I buy my clothes have anything to do with you?”
Shi Fei felt a chill down her spine when she was caught by Qin Shu’s cold gaze. She forced himself to say, “It doesn’t matter much, but you are wearing an imitation version of Yihua’s dress and you have the nerve to leave your house?”
“She definitely didn’t expect to wear the same clothes as Yihua. That’s why she dared to wear it to school. How shameless.” He Wan snorted coldly.
Xia Yihua walked over from the crowd. She wanted to see what the imitation Qin Shu was wearing looked like.
When she saw the dress Qin Shu was wearing, she realized that the cutting of the dress was not bad and that the pearls at her waist were round and shiny.
She felt that this imitation was a little better than the one she was wearing.
Qin Shu also saw the dress Xia Yihua was wearing. It was exactly the same as her own dress, and even the pearls on her waist were arranged in the same pattern.
When the dress was delivered last night, Fu Tingyu had said that this dress was custom-made by Ms. He had personally chosen the pearls and fabrics, which were made of ice silk. It was very comfortable to wear in summer.
There would only be one custom-made dress, so could the dress Xia Yihua was wearing be an imitation?
A hint of doubt flashed across her eyes. Given Xia Yihua’s personality and status, she would not lower herself to wear an imitation dress.
“My boyfriend got Ms to design this dress. An imitation? Can you tell with your eyes?”
Qin Shu walked in front of He Wan and stared at her face with a cold smile. “Who are you calling shameless?”
He Wan was so scared that she subconsciously wanted to step back.
Qin Shu was the first to make a move. She raised her hand and slapped He Wan’s face. There was only a crisp slapping sound.
Did they think that if she did not act, that she was easy to bully and could be easily manipulated?
