Zhou Xiaowen opened her mouth.

Is this still the Jiang Chu she knows?

It feels like you've become a completely different person.

Is this what heartbreak is all about—it transforms you completely?!

"..."

Li Yue and Liu Yuanyuan were also shocked.

Zhou Xiaowen swallowed hard, still finding it somewhat unbelievable.

"And... what about the Xie family's little princess?"

"Hmm?" Jiang Chu blinked. "It's the same, but the process should be a bit faster since the nature of the case is slightly different, but in the end, they will both be sentenced."

Zhou Xiaowen nearly dropped her chopsticks. "What?!"

She mentioned Xie Qingyang to ask if Xie Qingyang would help Wei Jing, or rather, the Wei family.

result--

Zhou Xiaowen: "Who should be sentenced?"

Jiang Chu shrugged. "Xie Qingyang, she committed a crime. Since she committed a crime within our country, and she's not a diplomatic personnel with any immunity... she should be sentenced according to the law."

"What do you mean?" Li Yue couldn't help but ask. "What happened to Xie Qingyang? Did something happen to her family too? That can't be, the Yu Group that day—"

"It was just her personal crime," Jiang Chu said casually. "What does it have to do with other people or the group?"

"What...what did you say?!"

Zhou Xiaowen raised her voice eight octaves, drawing the attention of students at the nearby tables.

She quickly lowered her voice, her face full of disbelief: "Jiang Chu, are you kidding me? Xie Qingyang is going to jail? Isn't she the daughter of the chairman of Tianyu Group? Who would dare arrest her?"

Jiang Chu raised an eyebrow. "First of all, she is not the daughter of the chairman of Tianyu. Secondly, she was arrested because she broke the law. It's that simple."

Zhou Xiaowen shook her head repeatedly as if she had heard something out of the blue: "Impossible, absolutely impossible! My friend told me that the counselor and the dean are very polite to her, and people in the rich second-generation circle all say that she is..."

Jiang Chu: "They've got it wrong. She's just been swindling people out there."

She didn't want to explain the Xie family's affairs in detail to anyone.

Jiang Chu spoke calmly: "Tianyu Group has six core listed entities, ranging from Tianyu Energy and Tianyu Heavy Industry listed on the A-share market, to Tianyu Port listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange and Tianyu Semiconductor listed on NASDAQ. The top-level holding platform, which is not listed domestically or internationally, is called Tianyu Holdings. As a top student from the Finance Department of Peking University, if Xie Qingyang is truly the core heir, or even just the chairman's daughter, she should at least hold shares in Tianyu Holdings under her name, or enjoy a corresponding beneficial interest through a family trust."

She paused for a moment.

"...Check the prospectuses and equity disclosures of several listed companies under the Tianyu Group on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange. The list of beneficiaries of the controlling shareholder's family trust has never included 'Xie Qingyang' or her American name. Tianyu Holdings itself is not publicly disclosed, but going down to the listed entity is enough to explain the problem."

Her three roommates stared at her in shock.

"As for the counselors and those so-called circles of rich kids—"

Jiang Chu smiled slightly. "If your surname is Xie, and you act arrogant enough and drive a multi-million dollar supercar, you could lie and say you're the daughter of the chairman of Tianyu, and many people would believe you. After all, verifying it would not only make you seem ignorant, but it could also offend people."

Zhou Xiaowen was stunned by what she said and subconsciously took out her phone to check.

But seeing Jiang Chu's confident and professional demeanor, her finger hovered over the screen for a long time, but in the end, she didn't type a single word.

If this matter can be investigated, then Jiang Chu really has no reason to lie.

"Then...how did you know?"

Zhou Xiaowen stared intently at Jiang Chu, her eyes filled with surprise, uncertainty, and a sense of absurdity.

"You wouldn't happen to... know some high-ranking executive at Tianyu Group, would you?"

Jiang Chu finished the last sip of soup, grabbed a tissue to wipe her mouth, and did so with an elegant and composed demeanor.

"I have indeed met some of the senior executives, but I know this mainly because—"

She smiled and said, "I'm going to marry Chairman Tianyu."

The three roommates were dumbfounded.

"...I need to understand my partner's family situation and the security of his assets in advance."

After a brief silence.

"puff--"

Zhou Xiaowen burst out laughing.

"You mean you're going to marry the richest man in Beijing?"

Li Yue and Liu Yuanyuan also had very strange expressions.

They knew Jiang Chu was rich now, and they knew she might have a boyfriend with a powerful background, but—

Isn't this a bit outrageous?

"Jiang Chu, stop joking," Zhou Xiaowen said sourly, "Do you even know who that is?"

"Oh," Jiang Chu raised an eyebrow, "Tell me, what do you know about him?"

Zhou Xiaowen was speechless.

She had no idea what he was, only that he was the richest man in Beijing, a powerful tycoon with connections to the highest levels of society.

What else?

She knew that Tianyu Group was an energy giant with a wide range of businesses, but she couldn't say anything about the chairman himself.

Zhou Xiaowen: "..."

"Chuchu," Liu Yuanyuan tried to smooth things over, "Well, anyway, congratulations on your engagement, uh..."

"Come on," Zhou Xiaowen pouted, "you actually believed that?"

Before he finished speaking, several people passed by in the aisle, and one of them suddenly stopped.

The man's companion was still talking non-stop.

"Tianyu's risk control measures were excellent; those speculative funds that jumped in following the trend were completely wiped out. Tsk, as expected..."

"...Miss Jiang?!"

The man interrupted his companion.

Zhou Xiaowen also turned her head to look, and was stunned when she saw it.

Among that group of young men, the leader was Gu Yuanzhe, a directing major.

The Gu family started their business in cultural media and has some business dealings with the entertainment sector under Tianyu.

—At school, Gu Yuanzhe was a recognized top-tier rich kid. He drove several supercars in rotation, changed girlfriends seven or eight times a year, and was always surrounded by a bunch of flatterers.

Beside Gu Yuanzhe were two other second-generation rich kids from the business school, whose families owned local businesses worth billions.

These people were originally extremely arrogant, and they wouldn't even glance at ordinary students in the cafeteria.

Gu Yuanzhe was quite handsome. When he first entered the school, many people said he was the school's most handsome man, so Zhou Xiaowen was able to recognize him.

"...It really is Miss Jiang."

At this moment.

Gu Yuanzhe's gaze fell on Jiang Chu.

Almost instantly, Gu, who usually acted arrogantly in the college and didn't even give much face to the counselor, suddenly put on a smile that was almost fawning, even somewhat fearful.

"What a coincidence."

Gu Yuanzhe took two quick steps, even bowing slightly, his tone extremely respectful:

"You're eating at the third canteen today too? I'm so sorry, we were talking too loudly earlier, did we disturb you?"
