Chapter 470: Chapter 469 I’ll Pick You Up
At the same time, Liu Zheng also thought of a way, he must ensure that Chen Mengting successfully passes the university entrance cut-off.
The next morning, Chen Mengting crawled out of her quilt early, washed up, and arrived outside Liu Zheng’s room.
"Ding dong!"
"Ding dong!"
"Ding dong!"
The doorbell rang.
Waking from his sleep to the sound of the doorbell, Liu Zheng got up.
After getting dressed, Liu Zheng opened the door of his bedroom.
Seeing the girl standing at the door, Liu Zheng was taken aback as he didn’t expect it to be Chen Mengting.
"Mengting, why are you up so early?"
"Liu Zheng, I have an exam today, so I needed to go to school early to avoid disrupting my studies."
"An exam?"
"Yes, the college entrance exam results are very important this year," Chen Mengting explained.
"Oh, then go ahead, you should hurry there."
"Yeah, Liu Zheng, I’m leaving now, bye!"
After speaking, Chen Mengting turned and left the villa, stopping a taxi on the street and heading to the school.
Watching Chen Mengting’s retreating figure, Liu Zheng sighed softly and thought to himself, "Ah, she’s really a devoted woman. No, I absolutely cannot let someone else snatch her away."
With that thought, Liu Zheng took out his phone and dialed Chen Mengting’s number.
"Dudu dudu..."
The call connected quickly.
"Hello."
Hearing Chen Mengting’s voice, Liu Zheng said, "Mengting, it’s Liu Zheng. There’s something I want to tell you today."
"Hmm?"
"I’ve decided, let’s date!"
"Date? Liu Zheng, what are you talking about? Why suddenly decide to date?" Chen Mengting asked, puzzled.
"Mengting, I’ve been pursuing you for some time, and you haven’t shown any response. Now that I’ve made up my mind, I want to pursue you and I hope you can agree."
"But, but we’ve known each other for less than two days."
"It doesn’t matter, as long as we like each other, nothing else matters," Liu Zheng said.
"This..."
"Mengting, just agree to it. I truly like you."
"Alright, since you’re so sincere, I will reluctantly agree," Chen Mengting finally nodded in agreement.
Upon hearing Chen Mengting’s agreement, a gleam of joy appeared on Liu Zheng’s face as he said, "Mengting, I’ll wait for you. Shall we go to the exam together tomorrow?"
"Okay."
After hanging up, Liu Zheng finally felt a weight lift off his chest.
He then began to eat the various dishes on the table, savoring the food.
Of course, this was just an act Liu Zheng put on outwardly. In fact, he was already contemplating how to improve Chen Mengting’s grades.
After all, this was a very important matter.
In no time, Chen Mengting arrived at school. After filling in her details at the administration office, she headed to her class.
At that moment, there were quite a few people in the class, and they were all boys, looking like they were members of the school’s student council.
As soon as Chen Mengting entered the class, she immediately caught the attention of many of the girls there.
Because most of the girls in the class were high school students who were used to seeing mature girls, not someone like Chen Mengting who was still wearing a school uniform, beautiful and pure, practically a goddess in their eyes.
For a moment, the girls in the class looked at Chen Mengting with eyes filled with envy, jealousy, and resentment.
Feeling their gazes, Chen Mengting’s heart swelled with vanity.
Then, Chen Mengting found an empty seat, sat down, and quietly waited for the next class to start.
Soon, the next class was about to begin.
"Students, class is over," the teacher called out loudly as he walked into the classroom.
"Good morning, Teacher!"
At the teacher’s voice, all the girls stopped their chatter and answered the teacher in unison.
"Teacher, how do you like my outfit?" Chen Mengting stood up, approached the teacher, and asked.
Hearing Chen Mengting’s words, the teacher raised her head and took a careful look at Chen Mengting, then nodded her head, "Hmm, not bad, that outfit suits you very well."
"Thank you, teacher!" Chen Mengting said, her face beaming with excitement.
"Alright, go ahead and chat among yourselves."
After that, the teacher turned and left the podium.
As soon as the teacher left, all the students immediately gathered around Chen Mengting.
"Chen Mengting, my name is Wang Li, and yours?" Wang Li spoke up.
"My name is Chen Mengting. You can call me Xiao Ting or Sister Ting."
"Okay, Xiao Ting, do you have a boyfriend?"
"No, I’m still in ninth grade. I’ll think about that after I’m in twelfth grade."
"Oh, then let’s be best girlfriends."
"Of course, that sounds great!"
Then, several girls started to chat with Chen Mengting in the classroom, chattering away.
"Xiao Ting, you’re really amazing; you actually managed to get into tenth grade. You are our school’s pride, the best boy in our school is you," Wang Li said with admiration.
"Hehe, you’re too kind," Chen Mengting said shyly with a smile.
"Xiao Ting, I think you’re quite beautiful. What type of boys do you like?"
"Umm..." Chen Mengting pondered for a moment before saying, "I like them mature and steady, but they also need to have some capabilities, only then will they be worthy of my status."
"Wow, your standards are really high."
"Of course, I’m going to be the wife of a rich family," Chen Mengting confidently declared.
"Haha, okay, I support you!"
Upon hearing this, Chen Mengting smiled slightly and said no more, because she knew the group of students present would be her future classmates and she had to get along with them well.
However, even though she was the most beautiful among these students, none of them seemed willing to talk to her, which left her feeling very disappointed.
It was because she didn’t understand why, but her personality seemed somewhat aloof.
Just then, she noticed the girl sitting next to her was looking down silently.
She asked curiously, "Why aren’t you talking?"
"Ah?" The girl, upon hearing this, slowly lifted her head to look at Chen Mengting, her complexion a bit pale, "No... nothing’s wrong."
"You seem to be afraid of me?" Chen Mengting asked.
"No, it’s not that, I’m not afraid of you," the girl hastily shook her head and denied.
Chen Mengting smiled, "Good, then whether you are afraid of me or not, either way, you have to become my friend, got it?"
Hearing Chen Mengting speak, the girl’s face showed hesitation, but then she quickly regained her composure and smiled slightly while saying, "Of course, since we’re friends now, I should tell you."
"Good, then let’s be good friends," Chen Mengting said. "Let me introduce myself first, I’m Chen Mengting. What’s your name?"
"Liu Yulan."
"Hm, I’ve got it," Chen Mengting nodded, then continued, "Your family’s situation seems pretty good; they must have money, right?"
"It’s alright," Liu Yulan responded, then quickly added, "Xiao Ting, what about you? What do your parents do?"
"My family works in a small company in Donghai City," said Chen Mengting.
Upon hearing Chen Mengting’s answer, Liu Yulan’s eyes widened in disbelief.
A small company in Donghai City? That was something she had never imagined!
"I work in a small company in Donghai City. Are you interested in working for our company?" Chen Mengting spoke up.
For Liu Yulan, Chen Mengting’s words were like a bolt from the blue!
Donghai City, what a prosperous and affluent place it was!
Working there, the salary would be at least five or six thousand yuan a month. If she could work, she’d be living a life of luxury.
"Are you sure you want to hire me?" Liu Yulan, holding back her excitement, asked again.
"Positive!" Chen Mengting answered without hesitation.
Then, Liu Yulan said, "Alright, I’ll accept your offer with respect!"
"Fine, we’ll go to our company and sign up after class, and then get to know our colleagues," Chen Mengting continued.
"Right!" Liu Yulan answered affirmatively.
"Let’s meet at the classroom door after class; I’m going to leave first," Chen Mengting stood up, finished speaking, and then walked out of the classroom.

Meanwhile, in a villa, Liu Guoqiang sat on the sofa smoking, while across from him sat Lin Feng, who was engrossed in playing a game on his phone.
