Cao Jinpeng's words drew Liu Qianqian's attention to this side as well, which made Cao Jinpeng even more smug.

"Don't be fooled by the fact that he lives in our dorm and is dressed in designer brands. It's all an act. He has no real skills whatsoever. If you really want to date someone like him, I won't stop you!"

"However, I'll tell your brother about this. He'll laugh at you for the rest of his life. What era are we living in? Still playing these childish tricks. Hahaha, it's really hilarious!"

At this moment, Liu Qianqian was also very interested in this matter. Cao Jinpeng got excited and then exaggerated the story to Liu Qianqian, describing Li Xiaofeng as extremely despicable, like a clown.

Sure enough, it worked very well. Everyone chuckled from time to time, and even Liu Qianqian had a rare smile on her face, making Jiang Xueying's face turn pale and then red, and she was too embarrassed to back down.

However, no one cared about how Li Xiaofeng felt, what he was thinking, or whether he felt embarrassed or uncomfortable.

Seeing the scene before him, Li Xiaofeng immediately understood what was going on.

Go to college.

He came to make friends with good intentions.

Faced with his roommate's sarcasm, he remained humble and composed, offering only limited retaliation and avoiding any excessive or drastic actions.

After all, in the eyes of outsiders, he really doesn't have much ability, and he's not even as good as children from ordinary families, so it's normal for others to have some opinions.

But what did I do to offend you? I only wanted to make a pretty girl smile, and you made up stories about me like this? What right do you, Cao Jinpeng, have to treat me like this?

At that moment, Li Xiaofeng became enraged.

Since you don't treat me like a human being, then I won't be polite to you anymore.

He reached out his hand to Jiang Xueying and said, "Xueying, it's too noisy here. Why don't we go for a walk in the grove over there?"

He moved closer to Jiang Xueying and whispered, "Cooperate with me, otherwise it will be awkward for everyone."

Jiang Xueying glanced at him, then at Cao Jinpeng who was fawning over Liu Qianqian, and put her hand in Li Xiaofeng's arm. Li Xiaofeng then led her towards the grove.

Cao Jinpeng glanced over, completely ignoring it, and continued his long-winded talk to attract Liu Qianqian's attention.

He felt that after today, Liu Qianqian's impression of him would definitely be deeper, and he would be one step closer to Liu Qianqian. People like Sun Wenxuan would have to take a backseat. However, he did not notice that Liu Qianqian was also looking in Li Xiaofeng's direction with a very curious expression.

Once outside the playground, Jiang Xueying quickly pulled her arm back, lowered her head, and looked somewhat sad as she prepared to leave, but was stopped by Li Xiaofeng.

"Jiang Xueying, are you really planning to leave like this?"

Jiang Xueying looked up, her gaze somewhat cold, and said, "What, you actually took it seriously?"

Li Xiaofeng smiled and said, "That's not what I meant. I mean, after all, I'm Cao's roommate, and I know Cao's every move very well. If you want to pursue Cao, maybe I can help you!"

Jiang Xueying remained unmoved and said in a calm tone, "You wouldn't be lusting after me because of your looks, would you? To tell you the truth, I'm not interested in you!"

"It wasn't lust that got me in love, but rather greed for money!"

"What do you mean?"

"As you just heard from our Boss Cao, my family situation is very ordinary, and I have no family members left. I need to earn money to support myself."

"Pursuing Boss Cao like this isn't the way to go. You might not understand men's minds, but I'm a man, and Boss Cao's roommate. Don't you think I'm a qualified strategist?"

Jiang Xueying looked Li Xiaofeng up and down, thought for a moment, and then asked, "How many do you want?"

"Pay after delivery. If you're not satisfied, you don't have to pay me a penny. If you are satisfied, then you can decide how much to pay!"

Li Xiaofeng didn't actually intend to make money directly from Jiang Xueying; asking for money was just a plausible excuse.

Jiang Xueying smiled and said, "If I deliberately said I was not satisfied, wouldn't you have worked for nothing?"

"I won't work for nothing. Boss Cao made such a fuss about me in front of my classmates, so I'll just hang around in front of you a couple more times to make him jealous!"

Jiang Xueying chuckled: "I think this is your real purpose!"

"Didn't you also want to make him angry?"

Jiang Xueying rolled her eyes at him and didn't say anything.

"There's a saying that goes, 'You can't make a deal if you're too eager!' What kind of family background do you, Miss Jiang, have? I'm afraid it's not even as good as Boss Cao's!"

Besides, Miss Jiang, you're much better looking and have a better figure than that Liu Qianqian, so how did you end up looking so pathetic? Liu Qianqian, on the other hand, is the center of attention. Don't you think something's off?"

Li Xiaofeng smiled slightly and gestured, "This isn't something that can be resolved with just a few words. There are stone benches in the grove; let's go sit down and talk!"

Jiang Xueying hesitated for a moment, but quickly nodded and obediently followed Li Xiaofeng into the grove.

The grove on campus is actually a public space where many students read and chat; it's not a dark, ambiguous place.

Jiang Xueying took out a pack of tissues from her LV bag, carefully wiped the stone bench, and then sat down like a lady, as if she had been trained in etiquette.

"You tell me, I'll listen!"

Li Xiaofeng plopped down, smiling, and said, "Miss Jiang, why is Liu Qianqian so popular? While you can't even handle Cao Jinpeng. Do you know where you fall short compared to him?"

"How am I any less than that little bitch!"

"The problem is that she doesn't show any affection to men, while you've become Cao's lapdog. Have you ever heard the saying? Lapdog, lapdog, you'll end up with nothing."

"What do you mean?"

"It means you've been too good to Boss Cao, you care about him too much, and he doesn't treat you like a human being."

Jiang Xueying remained silent, head down, her thoughts unreadable.

After a long while, she looked up and asked again, "Then what should I do?"

"I suggest you leave him out for a while and see how things go before making any decisions."

"What if that bitch Liu Qianqian takes advantage of the situation and steals him away? I don't want to lose him!"

"Let me ask you, if Liu Qianqian were standing in front of Boss Cao right now and he had to choose, would he choose her or you? What do you think Boss Cao would do?"

Jiang Xueying remained silent.

Li Xiaofeng smiled faintly: "If I never possessed it, how can I say I lost it?"

"How could we not have had it? We grew up together since we were little."

"Do you think this counts as having possessed it? I think the reason you treat Boss Cao this way is because you invested too much emotion in Boss Tao before, making you insecure and unable to see the situation clearly."

"What do you think I should do?" Jiang Xueying asked for the second time.

“As I just said, you can let it air out for a while. You don’t need to worry too much. I share a dorm with him and can report his situation to you anytime.”
