"It's Shang Shili."

Li Zhizhi answered in a voice as soft as a mosquito.

Qiao Jintang scratched his ears and moved his head closer to her, "What did you say? The wind is too soft and I can't hear you."

"The high school I transferred to is the same high school that Shang Shili attended."

I wipe?

Qiao Jintang was puzzled, "That doesn't make sense, then why doesn't San'er know you?"

"I only lost weight in college, sister. At least we see each other every winter and summer vacation!"

Li Zhizhi spread her hands and said self-deprecatingly, "What's more, the Third Young Master is in the legendary aristocratic class, and most of the students in the class are children from wealthy families. How can an ordinary student like me in an ordinary class be qualified to enter the eyes of the Third Young Master Shang?"

Qiao Jintang nodded in agreement, "That's right. If Shang Shili wants to pay attention, he should pay attention to the class belle in the school. You will definitely not even glance at him twice when you pass by him."

This is so heartbreaking, old man!

"No, I just don't understand. Shang Shili's face is just average, his IQ is not high, his vision is poor, and his temper was not much better before. Which eye of yours is cramped to make you have a crush on him?"

After all, Mr. Shang is one of the most popular men in China, so it's not like that...

So bad, right?

Taking a deep breath, Qiao Jintang patted Li Zhizhi's shoulder like an old mother, and said earnestly: "Zhizhi, I know a few handsome guys, how about introducing them to you? You see..."

The faces of Tang Song, Shen Yu, and even Shang Yan, Lu Shaoheng, and Zheng Xuchen flashed through her mind one by one. Qiao Jintang shook her head and said, "Forget it. It's better to build a good business than anything else. Sister Bai has already helped me find a piece of land. I'll hire you as a housekeeper when my building is built."

She touched Li Zhizhi's head and said, "Be good, we don't need men to live well. I will help you get rich. In the future, supporting a dozen young men won't be better than your current life, right?"

That's the truth, but...

Seeing that Qiao Jintang had been led astray by her, Li Zhizhi secretly breathed a sigh of relief, fearing that Qiao Jintang would ask further questions.

How do you know...

"Okay, first tell me why you have a crush on Shang Shili?"

Facing Qiao Jintang's slightly threatening gaze, Li Zhizhi answered reluctantly, "Well, he was playing with a few friends when we were going up the stairs and we bumped into each other. Then he apologized to me and helped me pick up the book."

The corners of Qiao Jintang's eyes and mouth twitched.

Are you acting in a TV series here?

She has never understood the plot on TV where the male and female protagonists fall in love at first sight when they meet. Shouldn't they teach each other a lesson?

"Anyway, that's what happened. I was quite fat and had low self-esteem at the time, but when I saw her smile, I instantly... couldn't help myself."

Li Zhizhi frowned, "Later, I learned that he was the school's most prestigious class, the school bully, and the third son of the Shang Group. I felt even more inferior, and then I met him twice by chance.

He is on the school basketball team. Tangtang, you know that students on the school basketball team are the most popular. What's more, Shang Shili is handsome and rich. There are a lot of people who like him. Whenever he is on the basketball court, there will be people surrounding him."

Li Zhizhi fell into memories, as if she saw the young man with a bright smile and high spirits again.

After the family business failed, her parents quarreled every day. She hid in the house every day, becoming more and more timid and introverted.

Later, her parents finally divorced, her father married a new wife, and her mother took her to Kyoto to work hard.

If my mother hadn't secretly saved some money when our family was financially well off, and hadn't worked hard afterwards, we wouldn't have been able to afford this old and shabby house.

Her parents had just divorced at that time, and she was forced to transfer to a strange city. It really was the right time, the right place, and the right people.

Shang Shili's smile was imprinted in her mind.

Besides, who wouldn’t be attracted by beautiful things? Shang Shili is handsome and rich, and she is not the only one who falls in love with him at first sight!

She began to run to the basketball court frequently. Several girls in her class saw that she also liked watching basketball, and gradually became familiar with her.

Not long after, she learned that Shang Shili was dating a school beauty. It happened to be a Friday, and when she returned home that night, she cried for a long time under her quilt and vowed to forget him.

She also burned a lot of things about him, mostly her mood notes and folded paper stars.

She wrote her wish on each star, hoping that Shang Shili could see her.

However, their relationship ended just as quickly as it began, and they broke up in just two months.

She cheered herself up like an idiot and started to lose weight. It took her half a semester to lose weight. She ate whole grains and boiled vegetables every day and hardly ate anything greasy during that period.

Her mother was so touched that she felt her daughter had finally started to appreciate beauty. She encouraged her to have a boyfriend after graduating from high school.

As long as you don't do anything beyond the rules, we will never stop you.

Seeing Li Zhizhi lowering her eyes and lost in memories, with an occasional sweet smile on her face, Qiao Jintang rolled his eyes repeatedly.

"Are you back to your senses? Hello?"

Li Zhizhi woke up with a start, patted her chest and assured: "Don't worry, you can tell from my current attitude towards Shang Shili that it's all due to my ignorance and stupidity when I was young. Who didn't have a few crushes before? I even had a crush on the president of the student union when I was in college, just because he spoke English well and had a nice voice."

"You call that a secret crush? You call that admiration!"

"So, how did you give up Shang Shili in the end? You can complain as much as you want while I can support you now."

Li Zhizhi's smile froze slightly, and a trace of loneliness flashed across her eyes: "I was rejected by him! As graduation was approaching, many people in my class plucked up the courage to confess their love to the people they liked. I was greatly encouraged and wrote him a love letter. I even went to the door of the bar to personally hand it to him."

She smiled bitterly, and when she looked up again, her eyes were calm: "He got a new girlfriend, a rich and famous lady. He tore up my love letter in front of that girlfriend and told me that I was not his type."

It was early June, the temperature was hot and the college entrance examination was imminent. That period was very hard and stressful, but it was also an unforgettable one for her.

She still remembers that night.

The street outside the bar was very empty, with dim street lights standing alone on the roadside.

He was leaning against a lamp post, a cigarette dangling from his lips, and next to him were his new girlfriend and some of his fellow wealthy friends.

She mustered up the courage to hand him the love letter, but he refused it without even raising his eyelids.

She was ridiculed by those rich second-generations, who said she was unsophisticated and that she was a toad wanting to eat swan meat.

Her self-esteem was deeply hurt that night, and she chose to completely forget him.

until……

Tangtang told her that there was explosive news and asked her to go to the hotel. In the hotel lobby, she met him again.

Unexpectedly, she was very calm, but she subconsciously wanted to avoid him and avoid having too much contact with him.

Qiao Jintang sighed repeatedly when he heard this, "Those rich second-generations who mocked you, do you still remember what they looked like?"

Damn it, she couldn’t even bear to scold Qiao Jintang’s best friend, so when would it be someone else’s turn?
