Chapter 1301 Bragging
Qiao Nan was softhearted. She would not bear to reject him on the spot. She did not throw the love letter into the rubbish bin but kept it and rode the bicycle to the school gate, where she got into her family car and went back to the Zhai family’s residence to accompany her children.
Qiao Nan did not know that after she left, many students began speculating on the school forum about today’s incident. Some dormitories even made a bet on whether the warrior who confessed his love to Senior Qiao would succeed in the end or not.
Compared to other students, Qiao Nan seldom spent time in school. Therefore, she did not know of the rumors that were circulating in school.
Although Qiao Nan had good looks and seemed approachable and friendly, there were many other beauties in Peking University. Some were prettier or colder than Qiao Nan, or even richer and came from a better background.
However, among all of them, Qiao Nan was the only person whom they seldom interacted with.
She was a beauty who stirred the hearts of many men, but she was the only person whom they found difficult to reach. Therefore, many men who were interested in Qiao Nan could only sigh in frustration. When they chanced upon shooting stars, they would wish fervently that they would be given a chance to get close to her.
Although Qiao Nan was not considered as the school belle in Peking University, she was still considered as the faculty belle.
Everyone liked to look at beautiful people. As men, they were naturally attracted to beautiful women.

However, it was a pity that Qiao Nan did not give them any chance.
It was rare that a warrior was daring enough to take the risk to confess his love publicly to Qiao Nan, who was deemed as the most unreachable sunflower in the school.
If he succeeded, not only would he be a warrior, but he would also be seen as the winner. But if he failed, he would be thoroughly embarrassed.
As a result, many people were curious about Qiao Nan’s reaction and whether she would accept him or not.
Qiao Nan, who always kept a low profile in school, became well-known once again when she was in her third year all because of the love letter. Everyone who kept themselves updated with the latest news would know about Qiao Nan.
Compared to the first, second, and fourth-year students who were very interested to know the outcome, the third-year students, especially those who were in the same faculty as Qiao Nan, appeared to be very calm.
Tang Jiayun had already told everyone of the fact that Qiao Nan had been engaged.
Some of the students had forgotten about it, but there were some students who remembered it very clearly.
Tang Jiayun scooted next to Yu Xiaoxiao, giving her a rare smile. She made a move to link arms with Yu Xiaoxiao. They had been classmates for nearly three years. Yu Xiaoxiao knew Tang Jiayun very well and would not fall for her tricks like how she did when school had just started.
Without waiting for Tang Jiayun to link arms with her, Yu Xiaoxiao took her books and moved to the seat next to her and stated her stand. “There are many seats here. I don’t wish to be in your company and there is no need for you to sit so close to me. It’s better to maintain a distance between us. You can say your piece. If you are unhappy or displeased, the door is on the right-hand side. You can leave right away.” Tang Jiayun was seldom seen in the library. She should not be a dog in the manger.
Seeing that Yu Xiaoxiao did not buy it at all, Tang Jiayun snorted. “You must have heard that someone confessed his love to Qiao Nan. Do you think Qiao Nan will accept him or not? I suppose Qiao Nan will accept him. I have found out some information about the junior. He is in his second year and he is from the student committee. He is very tall, about 1.83 meters, and has a fair complexion. I heard that his family has a company. Since he studied in the capital, his parents bought a house for him in the capital so that he can stay here and carve out his career.”
It was obvious that Tang Jiayun was very envious of Qiao Nan.
The junior was able to carve his career in the capital and he already had a house in the capital. This meant that he could become part of the population in the capital and his household register could be in the capital. He was a good catch. Why didn’t she encounter such a good man?
She did not have very high expectations. The man that she liked did not need to be outstanding in all aspects. She would still find him acceptable if he was not as handsome and not as well-educated. “Why is it that Qiao Nan has such good fortune? She is good in her studies and she has good interpersonal relations. She seldom stays in school, but why is it that she seems to be everywhere? All good things seem to happen to her. The world is so unfair. I wonder what tricks Qiao Nan used to become what she is today.”
Tang Jiayun had to hand it to Qiao Nan for using tactics to get her way.
She scored a high score for her non-academic performance. She was merely the vice president of the club, but she had a lot of bonus points. She was not at school for half of the semester, yet she was awarded the second-prize scholarship.
There were very few people who were able to defeat Tang Jiayun. But no matter how much she tried, she could not defeat Qiao Nan or affect her results.
Yu Xiaoxiao sneered. “I have long seen through you. If the people that you dislike did better than you, instead of working harder to beat them, you will use underhanded methods to destroy them, making them be at the same level as you, or even worse than you. You are too despicable!”
“Yes.” Tang Jiayun admitted right away. “This is who I am. Don’t tell me you are not this kind of person. We used to be from the same dormitory and we should help each other. But among the four of us, Qiao Nan is the only one who is leading a good life. Are you saying that you have never been jealous of Qiao Nan and have never resorted to tricks? Are you saying that you have never cursed her to be unlucky and do worse than you? Yu Xiaoxiao, you are not any better than me.”
Yu Xiaoxiao tightened the grip on her pen. “But I have changed.”
“Fine. I am not a reporter. I am not shooting or taking videos. I am just chatting with you. Since I dare to admit it, why are you pretending in front of me? The three of us in the dormitory can’t take it lying down to see Qiao Nan leading a good life, particularly Lü Yan. She is behaving oddly recently. She is gloomy and sinister. Perhaps she believes in superstition and will resort to doing silly actions to curse Qiao Nan to her death.”
Yu Xiaoxiao was annoyed. “I am not. I admit that I might have behaved in that manner in the past. But I have changed. Anyway, I can give you the answer to the question you asked just now. Qiao Nan will definitely reject the junior. Have you forgotten that on the first day that we entered the university, Qiao Nan told us that she had a fiancé?”
The reason why Qiao Nan did that was to deter any unwanted suitors.
“Crap.” Tang Jiayun gave a mocking smile. “She was merely pretending and keeping up appearances. I remembered she said that she had a fiancé, but have we ever seen her fiancé before?”
