Tyrannical Tycoon Haunts Me Relentlessly-Chapter 604: Exclusive Favor 14

Xia Yinian met Yuan Yaying’s gaze with half-lidded eyes.

"Yuan Yaying, you recognize me, not because of that Weibo post a few days ago, right?" She mentioned her identity was different, and it really seemed like a possibility.

Anyway, so much time had passed since then, Xia Yinian figured she couldn’t care much anymore.

Since Yuan Yaying knew her identity, she must be aware of that incident as well, and given she approached her voluntarily, she probably didn’t care too much either.

"That’s one way to put it," Yuan Yaying nodded.

Xia Yinian took a deep breath, feeling somewhat like she was digging her own grave. Could this person be any more direct?

Before she could say anything, Yuan Yaying’s voice rose again.

"Actually, the more important reason is, we are from the same school." 𝕗𝐫𝚎𝗲𝘄𝐞𝕓𝐧𝕠𝘃𝕖𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝚖

"You’re also a student at Kyoto University? How come I have no recollection of you?" Xia Yinian blinked, somewhat disbelieving.

"How many days have you been at school? With so much happening, it’s normal for you not to know me."

"Besides, I’m already in my senior year and rarely on campus," Yuan Yaying frowned slightly, her lips curving up at the corners.

"Still, I recognize you; you should know how well-known you are on campus by now, right?"

Xia Yinian wasn’t mad; people who spoke bluntly like this actually tended to be without guile, which was just her type.

"Do you mean to say, you came over here today specifically to tell me that I’m well-known on campus?" She glanced at the person beside her.

"Of course not, I heard you’re quite familiar with Professor Qin, I came over specifically to bask in your glory," Yuan Yaying said with a smile, raising her eyebrows.

"I’m well acquainted with Professor Qin, and you know that? It seems you have quite the network on campus, when can you introduce them to me?" Xia Yinian commented lightly.

"We’ll definitely find an opportunity, so tell me! What hints did Professor Qin give you? I could use them as a reference."

As soon as the conversation turned, Yuan Yaying had already pulled out a notebook and pen, ready to take notes.

Xia Yinian looked at her, her voice remaining nonchalant: "Are you so sure I’ll share with you?"

"You must be bored; you’ll definitely say something," Yuan Yaying was unapologetically direct.

She was bored, so she had to talk to her; what kind of reasoning was that? Xia Yinian was left speechless.

The person who was pegged as "bored" was gradually worn down until she could only say what the other wanted to hear.

However, Xia Yinian found that chatting with Yuan Yaying seemed to be more beneficial to herself.

After all, Yayin had won third place in the Alchemy Competition during her freshman year on her own merits, not an undeserved reputation.

The two seated together quickly found common ground and enjoyed a spirited conversation.

Whatever drama was unfolding elsewhere seemed unrelated to them.

Suddenly, a growing commotion from afar became impossible for Xia Yinian to ignore.

She looked up towards the boarding gate, and it looked like quite the explosion of activity.

"What’s causing such excitement? Look how worked up everyone is!" Yuan Yaying blinked, standing up.

But it was too far away, and with so many people there, she couldn’t see anything.

"Gossip!" Xia Yinian raised an eyebrow, looking back down at her materials.

Yuan Yaying turned to glare at her but remained on her tiptoes, trying to discern what was happening.

She was indeed very curious.

"Tsh! Who isn’t curious in this society? It might even be some celebrity who’s arrived!"

It had to be a super handsome superstar to excite the girls to this degree!
