Chapter 775 - Exaggerated Lies

Xie Yuning almost couldn’t hide her smirk when she saw Yue Fenrong direct that question at Gu Qingjiu, with whom she was displeased.

If Gu Qingjiu spent so many years in the army, how would she get the chance to know a rich person?

No matter what, she wouldn’t be able to compare to Xie Yuning’s.

Gu Qingjiu thought for a bit before answering vaguely, “My boyfriend does business and I got to know him from the army.”

Helian Niancheng was from the royal family, but he was indeed doing business.

“What business?”

The female classmate who asked the previous questions continued to probe relentlessly.

Yue Fenrong turned to look at Xie Yuning. “Yuning’s boyfriend does business too. You might get the chance to work with them?”

Xie Yuning took the chance to climb the pedestal. “Oh, I won’t dare. They do big businesses that we common folks can’t compare to.”

Even though those were her words, the scorn was evident in her tone.

Zhong Xiaoxiao eyed Xie Yunning. The way she gloated was disgusting.

Gu Qingjiu placed her chopsticks down and nodded. “That’s true. My boyfriend’s family is involved in more businesses. Generally, projects worth less than a hundred million will not be considered.”

Penalan’s royal family was one of the richest families in the world.

The families were involved in major business projects all over the world.

People of Xie Yuning’s boyfriend’s caliber was a joke and was not even worth mentioning.

Gu Qingjiu’s words caused people around to be stunned.

Xie Yuning’s gloating expression stiffened. She screeched in retort, “Even exaggeration has its limits!”n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

It was no wonder why she was so agitated. Normal people wouldn’t believe such words too.

What Xie Yuning lacked were her observation skills. Gu Qingjiu was clad in branded clothes that she couldn’t even recognize, what else could she hope to understand?

Yang Han’s lips twitched a little, looking at Gu Qingjiu as if she was a lunatic.

No one believed Gu Qingjiu.

If they were still talking about a rich family like what Xie Yuning was saying, it was still within an acceptable range. However, what Gu Qingjiu talked about was at a level they wouldn’t even dare to imagine.

Indeed, if it wasn’t for Gu Qingjiu, they wouldn’t even have the right to hear about it.

Gu Qingjiu didn’t react to their disbelief. In an indifferent expression, she looked at Xie Yuning. “What, why do I need to fabricate these lies? My boyfriend comes from a rich family but that is not my business, so it was not something I talked about every day.”

These words mocked Xie Yuning.

Zhong Xiaoxiao trembled, finally chuckling out after unsuccessfully holding her laughter in.

Hearing Zhong Xiaoxiao’s chuckle, Xie Yuning’s expression darkened completely.

She stood up and sneered, “Hundreds of millions, what a funny person. Do you know the concept of hundreds of millions? Have you seen anything that was worth that amount? Your over-exaggeration is seen through. If your boyfriend is so capable, why did you not bring him here?”

“Why would I bring him along?”

Gu Qingjiu shrugged innocently. Zhong Xiaoxiao who was beside asked in mirth, “Yuning, didn’t you always say that your boyfriend treats you very well? Why didn’t you bring him along?”

“What has this got to do with my boyfriend?”

Xie Yuning rebuked naturally.
