Rich Parents Found Me After I Got a Tycoon System? Yeah, I'm Not Interested

"Of course it does. As an alumnus of our university, there’s nothing wrong with coming back to give back to my alma mater, right?"

What Lu Yunque said made perfect sense, but Yun Zijin couldn’t shake the feeling that something was off.

"So, you’ve settled the ’giving back’ part now?"

Yun Zijin didn’t doubt him. With the Lu Family’s deep pockets, any small contribution from them would be enough to build a new building for the university.

"It’s settled. We were originally planning to have a meal together, but the university staff suddenly had a meeting to attend, so they bailed on me.

As a current student of Dijing University, Zijin, don’t you think you should treat me to a meal to make up for it?"

Lu Yunque’s tone was half-joking, half-serious. 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚

Yun Zijin was silent for a long moment before she finally found her voice. "Isn’t it an awkward time to eat anywhere?"

It was too late for breakfast, but too early for lunch.

Besides, she had already made plans with Qin Sitong to study together at the library.

"Then we don’t have to get a full meal. What do you feel like having? My treat."

Lu Yunque was clearly determined to get her to come out.

Yun Zijin frowned slightly. The main issue was that she already had plans, and suddenly disrupting them made her feel uncomfortable, as if her OCD was kicking in.

"I already have plans with a classmate. How about some other time? I’ll treat you to a meal then."

Yun Zijin didn’t want to change her plan to study at the library.

Seeing Yun Zijin’s persistence, Lu Yunque knew it was probably impossible to get her out today, so he could only relent and give up.

"Alright, it seems we won’t be able to have a meal together today.

This ’some other time’ of yours... it’s not one of those ’some other times’ that never actually happens, is it?"

Everyone knew ’some other time’ usually meant never. He had to lock down a specific time, or this meal would probably fizzle out into nothing.

"How about tomorrow, then? I don’t have classes tomorrow afternoon. You pick the place and just send me the address."

Yun Zijin thought for a moment and casually set a time. "Oh, right, should we invite the others? If it’s just the two of us... people might start some nasty rumors if they see us."

Yun Zijin thought about the post Huang Xueyang had shown her. She had simply been seen in a few different cars, and somehow that got twisted into rumors that she was playing the field. She really couldn’t fathom what the person who made that post was thinking.

However, this person was good at hiding. Mei Lin still hadn’t sent her the poster’s information, which meant the data she’d collected wasn’t complete yet.

"...Fine. I’ll ask them, but I can’t guarantee they’ll be free."

Lu Yunque paused, doing his best to keep his tone calm as he replied to Yun Zijin.

’He was the one who asked her out, but now he had to bring along a few third wheels. He was probably the biggest sucker of all.’

"Okay, I’m at the library now, so I have to go. Just send me the address once you’ve picked a place."

With that, Yun Zijin hung up the phone.

Lu Yunque lowered the phone from his ear and looked at the disconnected call screen, sighing silently to himself.

’The road ahead is long and arduous!’

「The Library.」

"Who called you? You were on the phone for so long!"

Qin Sitong’s eyes were filled with gossip.

"Oh, someone you don’t know. They asked me to dinner tomorrow."

"And you said yes?"

Qin Sitong’s gossipy soul was burning with curiosity.

"I did! It’s not like it’s some shady relationship. It’s just a meal between friends.

I won’t be eating on campus for dinner tomorrow, so you’re on your own."

Yun Zijin said as they walked.

"I know, I know. You’ve got a date. I’ll find someone from the dorm next door to go with."

In any case, she wouldn’t be going with Ren Hui or Li Cui.

Qin Sitong was quite popular on their floor of the girls’ dorm, so Yun Zijin wasn’t worried about her being unable to find someone to have dinner with.

The two entered the library, first claiming two adjacent seats with their bags, then went their separate ways to find the books they wanted to read.

When Yun Zijin returned with a few books she wanted, she found a small crowd gathered around the spot where she had left her bag.

Yun Zijin frowned. Using backpacks, bags, pencil cases, and other items to save seats had become an unwritten rule in the library. ’I haven’t done anything out of line, have I?’

"Excuse me, could you please make some room?"

"Hey! Get in line if you just got here! Can’t you see we’re taking pictures?!"

Someone from inside the group said impatiently.

"I’m telling you, I saved this spot. If you want to read, please find another seat!"

The library was a place that was supposed to be quiet at all times. By crowding around and making so much noise, they were already bothering the people around them, though no one had said anything yet.

The group quieted down, and the people gathered around her seat all turned to look at Yun Zijin.

"Is this your bag?"

The person who spoke was scrutinizing Yun Zijin, but the more she looked, the more shocked she became.

’That watch is a Vacheron Constantin! The bracelet is Cartier! The earrings are De Beers!’

There were other things she couldn’t identify right away, but anyone who could afford a diamond Birkin bag certainly wouldn’t be wearing cheap junk.

"This is your seat? Oh, sorry. We just got so excited when we saw your bag that we came over for a closer look.

Don’t worry, we only took a few pictures. We absolutely didn’t touch your bag or anything inside it!"

No matter how foolish they were, they knew that someone who could afford a Hermes diamond Birkin was no ordinary person. Taking pictures was one thing, but they would never dare touch what was inside the bag.

The few who had been spectating but hadn’t gotten a photo yet, though a bit disappointed, still made way for Yun Zijin.

"Um..."

The girl who had been taking pictures from the center of the group hesitated by Yun Zijin’s seat for a long time before finally speaking up.

"This is a library. Could you please be a little quieter?"

The others might have been too embarrassed to say anything, but Yun Zijin had no such qualms.

If someone made her unhappy, she would make them even more so.

"I... I just wanted to ask... are you... planning on renting out this bag?"

Yun Zijin: ???

’Are you even listening to yourself?’

"No. I’m going to read now. Could you please not disturb me?"

"I’m really sincere! I’ll pay you a thousand yuan above the market rate. What do you think?"

Seeing that this person seemed incapable of taking a hint, Yun Zijin’s expression turned cold. "Do you think I look like someone who needs your thousand yuan? Also, I don’t want my bag appearing on any online platforms. If I find it, my lawyers will pursue legal action against you.

I advise you not to test your luck!"

After speaking, Yun Zijin ignored the girl. At the same time, Ling Er received Yun Zijin’s silent signal, emerged from the shadows, and blocked the girls who had just taken photos, ordering them to permanently delete what they had just taken.

Several of them were reluctant at first. After all, they had finally encountered a diamond Birkin, and in a culturally rich place like a library, no less.

This one set of photos from today would be worth several of their usual social media posts.

But Ling Er’s unquestionable gaze forced them to delete the photos from their albums.
