Chapter 232: Chapter 231 Mian Ge Got it By Himself

The classmates’ tone was both envious and admiring, each commenting one after another, their eyes uniformly fixed on the book “enshrined” in the center of the table, shining and gleaming.

Bai Fangfei sat amid the crowd, lovingly touching “Her Secret,” and modestly smiled, “This really isn’t anything special. After all, our family is going to cooperate with Ya Qing!”

“I admit I’m jealous! Today, I’m pure lemon essence again…”

“Monitor, do you have any extra copies? Even if they’re not signed, it’s okay!”

Bai Fangfei shook her head. It was difficult enough for her to have this one book, how could she have the energy to buy more for these classmates!

Moreover…

She gently touched the signature on the book, her eyes flickering. Never mind, no one knew anyway.

Pang Hao and Shouhao looked at each other from outside the circle, somewhat confused.

Bai Fangfei also had a signed book?

They were unaware of the Bai Family’s secret deal with Ya Qing, only knowing Bai Fangfei deliberately flaunted it to make Lu Mian look bad, which was shameful. They snorted and left the gathering, secretly pleased.

Bai Fangfei might not have any extra copies, but they did!

Twenty of them, no less!

Nonchalantly, Pang Hao and Shouhao walked back to their seats, each pulling out a signed copy of “Her Secret” from their backpacks and with a “slap” laid it on their desks.

Soon, some keen-eyed person spotted them, and a buzz of astonishment spread throughout the classroom.

“Pang Hao and Shouhao, you guys got the book too?”

“Where did you buy it?”

Others turned to look their way, and those originally crowding Bai Fangfei swiftly surrounded Pang Hao and Shouhao.

Bai Fangfei was suddenly left alone, a chilly breeze blowing over, quite a change from just moments before when she was the center of attention.

She looked quite upset, fiddling with her workbook.

Ni Xiaoxiao tried to cheer her up: “Fangfei, cheer up. They have theirs, and you have yours, and yours is a signed copy; they can’t compare to that!”

Bai Fangfei’s body stiffened, she nodded with a complex look in her eyes, but then she overheard–

“Be careful not to touch it; this is Ya Qing’s signed new book, very rare!”

Bai Fangfei’s face turned a sudden shade of green.

Ni Xiaoxiao was taken aback, uncertain what to say, simply patting Bai Fangfei’s shoulder: “Don’t worry, they have theirs, and the classmates probably just feel a bit envious.”

The class instantly became noisy again, the commotion much greater than when Bai Fangfei had shown off her signed book.

“How did you two get those, anyway?”

“Point us in the right direction! We want one too!”

Pang Hao and Shouhao didn’t take credit for themselves, they explained nonchalantly, “We don’t have that kind of luck, of course, it was Brother Mian who got them for us!”

“Lu Mian?”

“Oh!” Everyone finally understood, “She must have gone with the monitor to meet Ya Qing!”

They admired the kind of boss who could bring signed books for his buddies…

“How could that be! Bai Fangfei stood our Brother Mian up, she didn’t let Brother Mian into the company at all!” Shouhao scoffed, “Brother Mian got these on his own merit!”

“…”

The class fell quiet for a moment, everyone silently digesting the statement. When they looked back at Bai Fangfei, there was a hint of speculation and inquiry in their eyes.

Because of her status as class president, no one said anything outright, but everyone got the message.

But that’s not the point!

“Lu Mian got each of you one?” someone asked, restraining their curiosity.

Suddenly, everyone wished to be one of Lu Mian’s close associates, basking in the boss’s favor… such bliss…

Pang Hao tried to stifle his laughter, his shoulders shaking, struggling to keep it in. Yet, he mimicked Lu Mian’s demeanor, leaning back in his chair, appearing nonchalant as he spoke.

“Not exactly.”

Amidst the curious gazes of his classmates, he casually said, “Brother Mian brought back a whole bunch, like around twenty or so.”
