1. Ning Sui was a small-town exam ace who had studied hard for ten years and earned a place at one of the best universities in the capital.
Everyone around him was rich or influential. The scraps of resources that fell through their fingers could keep an ordinary person fed for a lifetime.
Ning Sui knew he couldn't afford to offend them, and hoped he might one day benefit from their connections. He did his best to please everyone and get along with all sides.
He brought breakfast one day, helped his roommates with sign-ins the next, and came up with ideas when one of them wanted to pursue a girl. At last, he managed to build good relationships with them.
There was only one person who had always looked down on him. The arrogance and disdain in that person's gaze were completely undisguised. Ning Sui didn't want to force a smile on someone who couldn't stand him, so he treated the guy like he was invisible.
Later, his roommate successfully got a girlfriend, and Ning Sui breathed a sigh of relief.
As he stepped out of the lively private room, Ning Sui had just taken a breath of fresh air when a tall figure emerged from the darkness.
In the shifting light and shadow, his cold, handsome profile looked like a finely carved European sculpture.
He stared at Ning Sui with a chilly gaze and spoke without haste.
"Jiang Yu already has a girlfriend. I'm still single."
"If you're looking for someone to latch onto, why not latch onto me?"
Ning Sui: ?
2. Pei Tingye was the heir to the Pei family's ocean shipping empire, a wealthy young master with his nose in the air.
Lately, there was someone he couldn't stand.
The other guy was a poor kid from a small town who relied on his beautiful, cool and refined face to smile at everyone. He was clearly afraid people wouldn't realize he was a gold digger.
Pei Tingye watched coldly, thinking that with the other guy's foolishness, he wouldn't even know when someone had played him to death. As expected, the other guy didn't dare get anywhere near him.
Later, the other guy latched onto one of Pei Tingye's friends, but that friend already had a girlfriend.
Pei Tingye thought he couldn't let him ruin his friend's relationship. He'd just have to make a little sacrifice for his friend.
So, on the day his friend confirmed his relationship, he walked right up to the other guy:
"Jiang Yu already has a girlfriend. I'm still single."
"If you're looking for someone to latch onto, why not latch onto me?"
