Can't Take My Eyes Off You novel Chapter 217

"I heard Zhang Xiqing already quit school. People like Hu Yuan, who got into our school because of Zhang Xiqing, was also asked to leave." Lin Qiayou exclaimed. "The bulletin board in our school also took down Zhang Xiqing's freshmen profile, leaving only yours."

Zhang Xiqing leaving school was nothing surprising to Jiang Yao. She knew that with the Zhang family's downfall, Zhang Xiqing had lost all her backing and was too prideful to stay put in Nanjiang Medical University where she knew she would get ridiculed constantly.

Her brazen attitude and aggressive personality had earned her plenty of enemies along the way and she was wise enough to understand that and leave.

"I wonder whose tail did the Zhang family step on to receive such torment. The Zhang family”well-established here in Nanjiang City”gone in two days?!" Zhou Xiaoxia stroked her chin in deep thought. "They were so wealthy that there was nothing they couldn't pay their way out of. I still cannot believe a big corporation like the Zhang family vanished in such a short time!"

She continued, "The world of the rich and the powerful is too terrifying. Thank goodness we are all just ordinary people. We may not be rich but at least we can live our lives in peace."

"Yes, the Zhang family is rich, but remember, there are wealthier and far more powerful people here in Nanjiang City. The people they infuriated must be of an even higher social standing than they were." Wen Xuehui lowered her voice and added.

The girls were all racking their brains trying to figure out who that elusive individual was. Jiang Yao stood aside and listened, amused with the frantic discussion that was going on.

They did not realize that the person of interest was, in fact, standing right beside them listening to their conversation.

It was a little before evening when Jiang Yao received news that Lu Xingzhi had arrived at his platoon safely. He did not call her earlier as he had too much work to be done.
