Chapter 777: Chapter 777 - 777 New School Beauty Candidate

Not far away, a girl in a green dress walked slowly towards them.

She was about 1.7 meters tall and wore white sandals.

Her eyes sparkled like the stars, her skin was as smooth as coagulated cream, and her dense black hair was simply tied with a hairband.

Her features were delicate, and her figure was impressive.

At any university, she could have been the school beauty.

Jiang Xu glanced over as well.

And immediately, a look of surprise crossed his face.

This girl looked somewhat familiar.

But he apparently did not know her.

Was it an illusion?

The girl was heading this way.

Suddenly, Wu Mengmeng and the others felt as if a cool breeze had blown over them on a hot summer day.

Refreshing and pleasant.

“Brother Xu, long time no see.”

The girl actually greeted Jiang Xu.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Wu Mengmeng and Xia Xiaozhan immediately sent gossipy glances his way.

What the hell?!

How did Jiang Xu manage to provoke such a beautiful girl, a school beauty no less?

An Nuonuo also looked at the girl with curiosity.

She felt the girl looked somewhat familiar.

At first, Jiang Xu was just a bit puzzled.

But upon hearing her voice, he suddenly realized, “Are you Zhou Mengmeng?”

“Yes, Brother Xu, it’s been a long time,” Zhou Mengmeng said with a mix of joy and shyness.

She looked the very image of a girl with a springtime crush.

Wu Mengmeng and Xia Xiaozhan immediately became anxious on behalf of An Nuonuo.

Something about this sister seemed off.

Jiang Xu explained to An Nuonuo, “Her name is Zhou Mengmeng, Zhou Qingyue’s cousin. Back in high school—cough cough, I saw her a few times.”

He didn’t want to admit that back when he was still fawning over Zhou Qingyue in high school, he had seen this Zhou Mengmeng a few times.

But at that time, Zhou Mengmeng was just a twelve or thirteen-year-old kid.

And her skin was dark, making her completely unrecognizable compared to now.

After his reincarnation, since he no longer doted on Zhou Qingyue, Jiang Xu hadn’t seen Zhou Mengmeng again.

In his previous life, he seemed to remember hearing she had gone to study in the Capital city and later married a wealthy foreign tycoon.

This life had changed, possibly influenced by Zhou Qingyue?

“Oh, she’s Zhou’s cousin,” An Nuonuo said as she realized, then smiled at Zhou Mengmeng, “Hello.”

“Sister Nuonuo, you’re so beautiful,” Zhou Mengmeng said with a touch of shyness.

“Mengmeng, you’re beautiful too.”

“Um, I have something else to do, so I’ll be going first.”

After exchanging a few words, Zhou Mengmeng chose to leave.

But she didn’t wander off far, instead, she hid behind a tree, watching the few people.

Her gaze was especially fixed on Jiang Xu.

“Mengmeng,” a girl with freckles on her face came running over, “where did you go just now? I’ve been looking for you for ages.”

Zhou Mengmeng shifted her gaze and smiled sweetly, “I just saw Brother Xu and went to greet him.”

“Wow,” the girl with freckles exclaimed, “do you really know him?”

“Mmhmm,” Zhou Mengmeng nodded, “I saw him a few times when I was little. He’s good friends with my sister, and his wife is also very beautiful.”

The girl with freckles pouted, “An Nuonuo? She’s not as pretty as you are.”

She was Zhou Mengmeng’s loyal sidekick.

And believed none could compare in terms of looks.

“Not at all,” Zhou Mengmeng chuckled, “Sister Nuonuo is the prettiest. I can’t compare with her.”

“How could that be?” the girl with freckles disagreed, “I admit An Nuonuo is indeed very pretty, but you are young.”

“You’re only eighteen, the age of a blooming flower.”

“It’s been said, right, that whether a man is 18 or 98 years old, they always like 18-year-old girls.”

“I think that only someone like you is worthy of a man like Jiang Xu.”

“And, when comparing a brand-new car to one that’s been driven for several years, even an idiot knows which one to choose.”

Zhou Mengmeng’s mouth corners lifted subtly, but she chastised, “You can’t talk like that anymore; it’s not good if someone hears.”

The freckled girl didn’t take it seriously, but she didn’t continue discussing the topic either.

She said, “Alright, let’s go register and, by the way, claim this year’s title of Magic University’s school beauty.”

————————

At noon, on the second floor of the school cafeteria.

Jiang Xu, An Nuonuo, Wu Mengmeng, and Xia Xiaozhan, the four of them, were sitting together.

“Oh my gosh,” Wu Mengmeng exclaimed while looking at her phone, “just the first day of school, and Zhou Mengmeng has already become the top school beauty, and Nuonuo is now second.”

“Let me see.” Xia Xiaozhan leaned over, equally shocked, “She is actually more than five hundred votes ahead of Nuonuo?”

Wu Mengmeng frowned, “Although I admit that Zhou Mengmeng is indeed pretty, she’s not to the level of completely surpassing Nuonuo.”

“Exactly,” Xia Xiaozhan huffed, “I feel like this ranking isn’t very accurate.”

They said this out of sincerity.

It wasn’t because the boss was nearby.

It certainly wasn’t because they wanted to suck up to the boss’s wife for a promotion and raise.

It was purely the truth.

Of course, if the boss was willing, they wouldn’t refuse.

Jiang Xu also opened the school’s forum.

The first dozen or so posts were about Zhou Mengmeng, with more than half relating to her.

He clicked into one randomly.

It was a photo of Zhou Mengmeng taken in front of the school fountain.

Just a side profile gave off a pure, attractive, and vibrant vibe.

The comments below were almost all praises.

After reading a few, Jiang Xu realized it seemed like someone was deliberately leading the conversation.

Praising Zhou Mengmeng, belittling An Nuonuo.

Jiang Xu’s face showed displeasure.

He wasn’t sure if this was the students’ doing or if someone was deliberately trying to stir things up.

Didn’t they know who he was now, daring to talk about my wife?

Jiang Xu wasn’t going to indulge them.

He directly posted a thread.

The title was: Any of you dare to talk bad about my wife, come to this post, and show me you’ve got guts.

As for the content, it was just a ‘smiling’ emoji.

Then he hit send.

Jiang Xu rarely posted in the school forum.

As soon as he published, it immediately caught everyone’s attention.

Jiang Xu refreshed the page, and there were already dozens of comments:

[Wow, my senior brother rarely makes posts]

[Is this a knight’s fury for his beloved, loving it]

[Hmph, Jiang Xu is awesome, I see these newcomers don’t know what’s good for them, daring to talk about Jiang Xu’s wife]

[To be honest, Zhou Mengmeng really isn’t as pretty as An Nuonuo]

————————

“Mr. Jiang is impressive and authoritative,” said Wu Mengmeng, who had also seen the post, giving Jiang Xu a thumbs up.

“Look,” said Xia Xiaozhan, “all those negative comments about Nuonuo are gone.”

No help for it; Jiang Xu had become top capital now.

If he wanted to mess with someone, it was very simple.

And with this matter, he was still standing on the moral high ground.

Even if it got out, it wouldn’t affect Jiang Xu’s reputation.

Jiang Xu sent a message to a senior student.

He asked him to check whether this incident had anything to do with Zhou Mengmeng.
