Chapter 85: Situ Jingyi
Chapter Eighty-Six: Situ Jingyi
The next morning, Qing Tian and Song Shishi arrived at the school gate. The school gate today could be described as bustling, with dense crowds of students gathered, and no one knew what they were looking at.
Qing Tian stopped and asked Song Shishi, “Why is everyone crowding over there?”
Song Shishi was also full of questions, “I was just about to ask you, Sister Qing!”
Song Shishi’s good sisters came over, looked at Song Shishi and Qing Tian, and shook their heads, saying, “Shishi, a peerless beauty has come to our school. This person is both talented and beautiful. This is bad news…”
Song Shishi said confusedly, “What’s wrong with being talented and beautiful? What does it have to do with me!!! Let them be as outstanding as they want, as long as they don’t bother me!”
Yawen raised her index finger in a “no” gesture, “It really has nothing to do with you. That great beauty is here for Ji Xiangyu! Sister Qing. Hee hee!”
When Qing Tian heard Ji Xiangyu’s name, she was even more confused. Who was this person with such a powerful aura?
Qin Hailan and a few sisters were wearing sashes, which clearly read: Your choice is yours to make, your choice paves the way for Xia Yang, vote for Xia Yang, and ensure peace!
Qing Tian was stunned. What did “vote for Xia Yang, and ensure peace” mean? Wasn’t this slogan a bit too cowardly?
Putting that aside for now, what was Qin Hailan’s intention? Was it possible that everyone was here to campaign today?
As soon as this conclusion was reached, Qing Tian was pulled by Song Shishi to Qin Hailan’s side. Song Shishi said with a smile, “Qin Hailan, it’s rare that we all agree. How can such a great task be without us? Xia Yang is the undisputed candidate for Student Union President!”
Qin Hailan glanced at Song Shishi, then took a sash from the side and said reluctantly, “Here, take it. Campaign well, and don’t disgrace us!”
Song Shishi excitedly took the sash, immediately put it on herself, and distributed it to others. When it was Qing Tian’s turn, Qing Tian wanted to refuse. She thought about how Xia Yang had saved her last night, and she couldn’t bring herself to refuse. Although she still hoped Ji Xiangyu would win and hoped Xia Yang would attend her grandfather’s birthday party, she selfishly wanted Xia Yang to win the election.
People are truly walking contradictions!
Song Shishi was inexplicably very enthusiastic about Xia Yang. Qing Tian watched Song Shishi and the others hand out flyers to every passing student. Suddenly, she had an idea. She knew why Song Shishi was so active: because Ji Weiwei was standing opposite them. The two of them had been competing in secret and openly. It was a pity that Li Minghao was ultimately devoted to Shishi. If Li Minghao knew about Ji Weiwei’s persistence and actions, what would he think?
Qing Tian encouraged herself, saying: I must persevere!
So, she also enthusiastically handed out flyers to every passing student, saying enthusiastically, “Take a look, voting for Xia Yang is your wisest choice!”
This was the first time she had shown this side of herself to people she didn’t know well. The usually cold her was a stark contrast to her current self.
Everyone was greatly surprised by this.
Ji Weiwei’s side was always crowded with people. Some boys were even screaming, and even girls were screaming because of it. Qing Tian curiously asked Qin Hailan, although she really didn’t want to ask her, she finally did, “Who is over there?”
Qin Hailan said helplessly, “Isn’t it Situ Jingyi, who just returned to the country? A great beauty who is both talented and beautiful. She’s currently campaigning for Ji Xiangyu. Look, all the students are attracted to her.”
Qing Tian was very curious about this Situ Jingyi. Because of the dense crowd, she hadn’t been able to see Situ Jingyi’s appearance.
As she was staring blankly at that side, someone stood beside her, took a flyer, and said, “Who designed this? It’s not bad!”
Qing Tian saw Xia Yang and smiled slightly, “It was designed by Qin Hailan and her classmates. I’m just helping out. The credit all goes to Qin Hailan!”
Qin Hailan leaned over and said kindly to Qing Tian, “You’re being too polite. I find it awkward to hear!”
Xia Yang put his arm around Qin Hailan’s shoulder and said affectionately, “A Lan, thank you!”
Qin Hailan was flattered by Xia Yang’s sudden intimate gesture. Coupled with Xia Yang’s thanks, she blushed even more shyly and said, “No, no… it’s just a small favor, and it’s what we should do. Our Princess Gang is here to support you, Xia Yang!”
Qing Tian looked at the shy Qin Hailan and stood aside smiling gently. Actually, if you looked closely, Qin Hailan was quite good. She and Xia Yang were a perfect match.
Xia Yang also thanked Qing Tian, saying, “Qing Tian, thank you!”
Qing Tian smiled warmly at her and continued handing out flyers!
However, just as she was about to hand one out, she saw Ji Xiangyu standing not far away. He was also looking at her. Separated by two or three people, they looked at each other. Qing Tian felt a pang of bitterness. He must have been very upset after receiving her message yesterday. Since fate didn’t want them to be together, why should she be persistent?
She saw Ji Xiangyu visibly freeze when he looked at the sash on her body. She also felt very awkward, but she couldn’t just take it off and pretend it wasn’t there!
However, she didn’t want Ji Xiangyu to misunderstand her not showing up. So, as she walked forward to explain to Ji Xiangyu, she saw a tall, graceful, and charming girl in a white dress walk up to Ji Xiangyu, affectionately link his arm, and whisper something softly in his ear. Her every smile and glance was like a fairy descending to earth, so beautiful that even Qing Tian felt she was incredibly captivating and hard to look away from.
Especially when she smiled slightly, any man would have fallen to his knees.
Ji Xiangyu was still looking at Qing Tian, and Qing Tian looked at them, feeling very uncomfortable. When Situ Jingyi looked at Qing Tian, she also smiled slightly at Qing Tian as a greeting.
Qing Tian got goosebumps all over from her slight smile. It was too gentle, as if it could ooze water.
Qing Tian didn’t want to continue this awkward smile, so she turned and hurried to Xia Yang’s side. Xia Yang hadn’t noticed what had just happened and naturally put his arm around Qing Tian’s shoulder, saying, “Can you help me write my speech draft at noon? I’ve never written one so formally, and I might not know many things!”
Qing Tian smiled and nodded, but her mind wasn’t on this at all.
Ji Xiangyu, on this side, was in a bad mood because of Qing Tian’s deliberate distance. Moreover, Qing Tian was wearing a sash to campaign for Xia Yang, which made him even more certain that Qing Tian was distancing herself from him. As for why, he really couldn’t figure it out!
Qing Tian continued to hand out flyers with a heavy heart, but her aura was significantly weaker than before. She looked at the beautiful woman clinging to Ji Xiangyu’s side with a bitter expression. It was one thing for her to cling to him, but she also had to hold his arm. Qing Tian’s mood soured. What was the relationship between this woman and Ji Xiangyu?
