She didn’t particularly dislike her behavior, she simply hated Qiao Nian! She couldn’t understand why people liked her so much. She couldn’t understand why she was naturally so popular that people would gather around her.
“No. With a score of 588, I believe you’ll be ranked first in the monthly test at our school.”
Qiao Nian was currently ranked first in the monthly test.
It was obvious that Wu Jie was targeting Qiao Nian.
Being praised so openly, Qiao Chen tucked the loose strands of her hair behind her ear. She felt better now. She pursed the corners of her mouth slightly, smiled, and said, “It’s not so exaggerated. I’m just lucky and managed to score better. It’s all thanks to my uncle who found a tutor for me. The tutor specialized in tutoring for the entrance examination for Qing University. It’s said that he was a top student who graduated from Fudan University. The questions the tutor emphasized during my tuition actually came out during the examination.”
She was actually lying.
The real reason she scored so well this time was not because of the tutor Shen Jingyan hired.
It was actually because she recognized that some questions were similar to the questions from the exercise book Qiao Nian had given her.
However, she couldn’t admit this openly.
If she said the real reason, she would be blindly giving credit to Qiao Nian.
When Xu Xu heard that, her face filled with envy. She said, “Did the tuition cost a lot?”
Qiao Chen looked down on her bumpkin dress style and smiled modestly, saying, “I’m not sure. It’s probably not very cheap, but it’s probably not the most expensive too.”
“It must be expensive. Is it not obvious? Specialized tutors like that have always been the most expensive tutors to hire. Just compare the difference between hiring a piano tutor and a tutor that specializes in preparing for the entrance examination. I estimate that one lesson would cost about 3,000 yuan. Furthermore, the prices in Rao City are probably cheaper than the prices in Beijing. In Beijing, one lesson might cost up to 10,000 yuan.” Cai Yan’s family was rich and had businesses related to the timber industry. Her family even drove branded cars like the Land Rover and lived in a villa.
When she said this, everyone started to look at Qiao Chen differently.
Cai Yan wasn’t done speaking. She deliberately said, “By the way, Chen Chen, are you wearing the limited edition skirt from Seven?”
Ever since Qiao Chen stumbled upon a bracelet from this brand previously, she had been a fan of their products.
She smiled and raised her eyebrows slightly, saying, “My uncle bought it for me. I didn’t pay attention to the brand.”
It was from her uncle again.
Everyone was jealous.
Qiao Nian glanced at her dress, which was said to be a limited edition product from Seven. The workmanship was of a better quality as compared to the dress she wore to school previously. However, it was only slightly better.
The most expensive products from Seven weren’t their limited edition products. Their most expensive products actually came from their series.
Even if some of their styles were considered limited edition, they were still considered low-end products. There were only one or two items that could be considered really high class.
For example, the dress Ye Lan bought for her. It was a limited edition dress from Seven’s high-end series.
Wu Jie was also envious that Qiao Chen had an uncle in Beijing. It was said that her uncle was very influential. She was at a level where they would never reach easily.
After she admired Qiao Chen’s dress, she didn’t forget to turn her head back to face Qiao Nian. “Before I forget, you haven’t told us your score yet.”
Liang Bowen was still wondering how the conversation’s topic switched to clothes. At that moment, Wu Jie persistently asked Qiao Nian about her score again. It was very disdainful.
Afraid that Qiao Nian would keep her score a secret, Wu Jie spoke sarcastically. “You were talking about scoring 600 points so casually just now. Chen Chen has already told you her score. How about you? How much did you score?
“It can’t be that you’re afraid! Did you even score 500 points?”
