In an era when everyone was striving and working hard, Jiang Dongdong had a goal of her own.
That was to latch onto someone powerful!
She'd heard the phrase from her cousin, who had been acting strangely ever since a serious illness. It was as if something had clicked into place, and Jiang Dongdong suddenly had a goal in life.
As for who to choose, Jiang Dongdong had her eye on the new transfer student at school.
She'd been craving the chocolate in his desk for ages. You could only buy it with foreign exchange coupons.
Jiang Meilian had come with a mission: to save Pei Huan, the tragic second male lead in the book.
She knew Jiang Dongdong was a scheming social climber who was good at putting on an act.
She'd only broken up with Pei Huan because she'd set her sights on the male lead's father, the hospital director. With her limited perspective, she thought he was the better choice.
A woman like Jiang Dongdong wasn't worth Pei Huan staying single for the rest of his life!
Thinking this, Jiang Meilian wrote furiously: “Pei Huan! Jiang Dongdong only pretends to be your underling. She really wants to bag a rich man and cheat you out of your money!”
Pei Huan glanced lazily at the letter, then looked over at Jiang Dongdong, crouched by the wall and eating like a little puppy.
He prodded her. “Tsk, you're so obviously stupid. You're embarrassing me. Get lost. Don't come looking for me tomorrow.”
Jiang Dongdong had been scolded, and after a moment she felt she ought to argue back.
But the cake was so delicious, and break time was so short. If she wasted time talking, she'd get one bite less. She wasn't stupid!
Pei Huan looked at Jiang Dongdong's smug little face and finally couldn't hold back. He clutched his stomach and burst out laughing.
His laughter made Jiang Dongdong a little worried.
This big brother was great, but his moods were too unpredictable.
How could an underling not understand their big brother?
Looks like she'd have to find another big brother.
Jiang Meilian kept writing, again and again.
On graduation day, she finally received her first reply from Pei Huan.
She opened it. The handwriting was bold and carefree: “Stop sticking your nose where it doesn't belong. I've got enough money to keep her scamming me for the rest of my life.”
She turned the page and found an engagement invitation.
Damn it! Love-brain is incurable!
