Chapter 1216: Yang Lan Has Changed

Although Counselor Zhang was shocked by the exorbitant price, he didn’t say much and just agreed.

Speaking of which, 200,000 for an Exorcism Talisman wasn’t too much. After all, Chi Shuyan’s talismans were all intermediate and high-grade level 4 Exorcism Talismans. Each one cost 100,000, and she just doubled the price.

As for going to the hospital to laugh at Director Huang, she didn’t have the time.

After leaving the office, Chi Shuyan went back to the cla.s.sroom. Before she got there, however, she was stopped by Zhen Yu and Yang Lan.

Zhen Yu was worried that something had happened to her again, and she couldn’t help but ask in concern, “Shuyan, why did Counselor Zhang want to see you? It shouldn’t be a big deal, right?”

As soon as Zhen Yu said that, Yang Lan also echoed her concern.

Chi Shuyan could tell that Zhen Yu was genuinely concerned, but Yang Lan’s expression was a bit stiff and unnatural.

Chi Shuyan sighed and felt that her relations.h.i.+p with Yang Lan probably wouldn’t be able to recover to the same extent in the future. Putting the issue of relations.h.i.+ps aside, she really did like Yang Lan’s character. She was brisk, decisive and generous. However, she easily became muddle-headed when it came to love.

Men and love were more important to her than anything else.

Because she cared too much, it was easy for her heart to be swayed and turn calculative. It was fine if the other party was interested, but if they weren’t, Yang Lan would try to force it. At the same time, she had a strong sense of unwillingness and ambition. It was easy for her to split hairs, which also made her more selfish.

Chi Shuyan just felt that Yang Lan was very dangerous now. It would be fine if she could figure things out herself, but if she ran blindly into a wall, her future wouldn’t be good and she would regret it for the rest of her life.

Most importantly, she was unlucky this year because of her rotten peach blossoms and the fact that it was her birth year; what if she dragged other people down with her?

Chi Shuyan had thought that Yang Lan had learned a lesson after being doused with gasoline previously. Unfortunately, time had diluted the lesson. Now, Yang Lan only had ambition and a man in her heart, and had changed a lot. For example, it was clear how selfish she was when she wanted to borrow luck last time.

Chi Shuyan didn’t plan to be as foolish as before or interact sincerely with her. It was fine to just get along on the surface. Besides, looking at Yang Lan now, she probably wasn’t as sincere toward Chi Shuyan as before, and was probably still wary of her.

Chi Shutan even wondered that if she wasn’t so capable or couldn’t help Yang Lan, would Yang Lan still take the initiative to befriend her?

Forget it, it was better not to think about it. The more she thought about it, the more stifled she felt.

In any case, she would continue to be sincere friends with Zhen Yu in the future, but with Yang Lan, forget it; she really couldn’t afford such a fragile friends.h.i.+p.

While Chi Shuyan was deep in thought, Zhen Yu suddenly recalled something and said, “By the way, Shuyan, Senior Sister Ji Mingshu and a few good-looking seniors were looking for you earlier. Shuyan, why are you so popular? No, it’s not just popularity; your luck with guys is even better! There’s a senior brother in particular called Su Yu who is especially handsome. I once saw a photo of him on the school forum. He’s very well-known in the university and is the idol of our school’s art department. Many girls have a crush on him!”

Zhen Yu’s face was filled with envy and hatred. When she said this, she didn’t notice that when she mentioned Shuyan’s good luck, Yang Lan’s face, which was originally full of smiles, suddenly stiffened. Her expression was extremely unnatural.

Chi Shuyan didn’t take Zhen Yu’s words seriously. She didn’t care if she had good luck with men or not. Why did she need so much luck with men? One reliable boyfriend was enough.

Without waiting for Chi Shuyan to reply, Zhen Yu suddenly changed the subject and said, “But no matter how good that senior brother is, Shuyan, you’re already taken. That Senior Brother Su looks pretty good, but he can’t compare at all with President Qi.” It wasn’t just his looks, but also his experience and aura. In short, that Senior Brother Su was still too young. Even if he really liked Shuyan, it was absolutely hopeless.

Chi Shuyan’s expression froze when Zhen Yu mentioned Qi Zhenbai. Zhen Yu didn’t see it, but Yang Lan did. Her eyes flashed inexplicably as she lowered her head.

“Okay, it’s about time for cla.s.s. Let’s go!” Chi Shuyan said.

When the three were about to return to the cla.s.sroom, Zhen Yu was called away, leaving Chi Shuyan and Yang Lan together.

After Zhen Yu left, Yang Lan suddenly asked in concern, “Shuyan, did something happen between you and President Qi?”

Chi Shuyan didn’t like to talk about her relations.h.i.+p with others to begin with. Moreover, her relations.h.i.+p with Yang Lan was no longer the same as before, so she wasn’t stupid enough to talk about her personal matters with the other party. She was about to say that Yang Lan was thinking too much.

Yang Lan beat her to it and said earnestly, “Shuyan, President Qi’s ident.i.ty is extraordinary. You have to work hard to seize the opportunity. If you miss this opportunity, I’m afraid you won’t get another one like it next time! Of course, given President Qi’s ident.i.ty, what woman wouldn’t like him? Smart women like us have to learn to turn a blind eye and lower our heads first!”

Chi Shuyan frowned when she heard this and almost cursed in her heart. She looked up at the familiar yet unfamiliar woman in front of her. Listening to her words, she felt even more sour in her heart. However, Yang Lan didn’t seem to see her frown and continued, “Shuyan, I’m doing this for your own good! But I think that Senior Brother Su is also good. You can give it a try. If you’re not compatible with President Qi, being with Senior Brother Su is also good. Women must make a way out for themselves!”

Chi Shuyan cursed in her heart and looked at Yang Lan skeptically. Was she teaching her how to be a two-timer?

Chi Shuyan felt very uncomfortable, especially when she heard these words. She didn’t quite understand if the other party was saying this on purpose or not.

If she wasn’t mistaken, Yang Lan should know that both Qi Zhenbai and his family background were extraordinary. Chi Shuyan reckoned that if she found another man today, the Qi family and Qi Zhenbai would probably know about it tomorrow or the day after.

If it was intentional… Chi Shuyan narrowed her eyes dangerously. She really didn’t want to think too badly of her former good friend. She said indifferently, “Let’s go to cla.s.s!”
