After holding it in for a long time, Xia Tian finally managed to squeeze out, "I’m not as superficial as you."

Wei Shuyu responded dismissively, "Yes, I’m superficial. So, honorable classmate Xia Tian, is there anything else you need? If not, I have to get back to work." With that, she shooed him away again.

Xia Tian was left speechless.

Meanwhile, a Bentley slowly pulled to a stop not far from the school gate, drawing the gazes of many passersby.

However, after watching for a moment and seeing no one get out, everyone looked away and hurried to register at the school. After all, this was Yancheng; seeing a few luxury cars was nothing new.

Four people were in the Bentley: Xue Yang, Lin Xi, Si Wen, and the driver, Uncle Liu.

Xue Yang was still on the phone. Lin Xi and Si Wen didn’t rush him, waiting obediently instead. They both knew how busy he could be. It was common for his calls to last two or three hours without a break. They had already played several rounds of a game on their phones, but Xue Yang was still tirelessly on his call.

These calls were usually from Hui City and were similar to teleconferences, which was why they always lasted so long. It couldn’t be helped, since he hadn’t had any time to return to Hui City recently. Certain matters required his decision before others dared to act.

After waiting a while longer and seeing no sign that Xue Yang was about to hang up, Lin Xi turned to Si Wen. "Si Wen, you go ahead and register. I’ll come in a bit." 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞

Si Wen glanced at the busy Xue Yang and replied, "Alright then, I won’t disturb you two. Don’t be too late. I’ll wait for you inside."

With that, she pushed open the car door, grabbed her small white bag, and stepped out.

Today, she had changed from her usual lolita style, now wearing a simple white shirt and a black skirt that made her look fresh yet dignified. Her hair was tied into a high ponytail with a black ribbon, revealing her stunning features and eyes that exuded confidence and composure. Her white backpack rested casually on one shoulder as she strolled gracefully toward the school gate in white sneakers. Her youthful, gorgeous appearance compelled people to take a second look.

"Wow, is that a fairy descending to Earth? She’s so beautiful!"

Wei Shuyu had just sat back down when she saw Si Wen approaching. She shot up from her seat with a smitten smile on her face, her gaze far more fervent than when she had been looking at the freshman boy moments ago.

"What? Is one freshman not enough for you to hit on? Now you’re planning on going after the girls?" Xia Tian piped up again, trying to get her attention.

Wei Shuyu shoved him aside. "Get out of the way! Don’t block my view of the fairy."

Xia Tian’s brows furrowed. He was about to lose his temper when he got a clear look at the person in question and froze.

He had never seen such a beautiful girl. She was breathtaking in just a simple white shirt; if she were to truly dress up, what kind of unparalleled beauty would she be! Just as Wei Shuyu had said, she was a fairy. A fairy looks beautiful no matter what she wears.

"Wipe your drool," Wei Shuyu said scornfully.

The sound of her voice snapped Xia Tian back to his senses, and his handsome face flushed with embarrassment. He never expected that among this year’s new students, there would be someone even more beautiful than Chen Ying. Since Chen Ying was the campus belle, all the male students at Yannorth University had unanimously believed that no girl more beautiful than her could possibly appear. While other female students were also pretty, none of them had ever been this stunning.

Today, reality had dealt Xia Tian a heavy blow.

He even started to think that if he were sitting here like Wei Shuyu helping the freshmen register, he might be able to get the girls’ WeChat contacts ahead of time. As long as he put his mind to it, he could definitely win them over.

What Xia Tian didn’t realize was that the very reason he came to bother Wei Shuyu was that she could use this advantage to get the male freshmen’s WeChat contacts.

Now, it was Wei Shuyu’s turn to flash a disdainful look. "Oh? Didn’t someone just say he wouldn’t be as superficial as me? What’s with that expression now? Don’t tell me you want to get the new girl’s WeChat?"

"Wei Shuyu, you—"

Xia Tian started to flare up, but Si Wen had already reached them, so he was forced to compose himself.

Up close, she was even more beautiful and carried a faint, almost imperceptible fragrance. Unlike the heavy perfume other girls wore with their makeup, the scent from this freshman was subtly cool. It was neither strong nor faint, making one feel more comfortable in the scorching summer heat.

Xia Tian’s heart pounded relentlessly.

He wanted to press down on his chest, afraid his heart would beat so fast it might leap out. But the breathtaking beauty before him made his body stiffen, leaving him unable to move.

He could only watch dumbly as she walked past him and approached Wei Shuyu.

Si Wen arrived at the sign-in table and asked, "Senior, is this where we sign in?"

Her voice was a little cool, yet it was clear and captivating, possessing a unique charm of its own. It was devastatingly effective on men.

Wei Shuyu immediately smiled and replied in a soft voice, "Yes, junior. Please show me your admission notice."

Si Wen took the notice from her small bag and handed it to Wei Shuyu.

Wei Shuyu took it and checked it carefully. Although she had ulterior motives, she didn’t forget her duties. "Si Wen, Business Administration... the admission notice is correct. You can just sign right here, junior."

Si Wen found her class section, located her name, signed it, said thanks, and went inside.

"Why didn’t you ask for her WeChat?" Xia Tian blurted out, his gaze lingering reluctantly on Si Wen’s retreating figure.

"What? So I should get her contact info and then pass it to you?" Wei Shuyu mocked.

"Wei Shuyu, we’re classmates! We’ve even worked together before. What’s wrong with helping me out?"

"I won’t."

Xia Tian was so angry he could barely speak. "Wei Shuyu, you’re such a petty person."

"And you’re a gentleman, a real gentleman. Since you’re such a gentleman, why don’t you just go up and ask for her WeChat yourself? Why resort to such a pointless, roundabout tactic?"

"..."

He couldn’t even move when he saw her, so how could he possibly dare to ask for her WeChat?

Once Si Wen had entered the school, the surrounding students finally dared to whisper among themselves.

"I heard them. It seems she’s a freshman in the Business Administration department. She’s so pretty. With looks like that, she’s definitely the new campus belle."

"I used to think Senior Chen Ying’s looks would be unrivaled at our school for a long time. I can’t believe that just as she graduated, a new junior has arrived who completely overshadows her."

"It’s a good thing Senior Chen Ying graduated, otherwise... there would have been quite a show."

The thought of two campus belles competing was thrilling, but at the same time, it felt like a pity. They wished their school could have a campus belle competition, just like other schools. But in this day and age, there were far too many women with both looks and talent. It took years for a multi-talented beauty like Chen Ying to appear. To have another one this year, they should thank their lucky stars. It was best not to ask for too much. Wanting too much, after all, only leads to loss.
