"Are you an international student too?" Kevin asked Xin Qianyu, "Which university?"

Xin Qianyu mentioned the name of a school. Wherever this name is spoken out, it will basically be praised like "Wow, Xueba".

And Kevin sneered: "Oh, that."

"That ah", this sentence is very short, and does not contain any vulgar language, but it slaps people on the face like a slap.

Su Zhong didn't notice Xin Qianyu's embarrassment.

Even though Su Zhong was sitting next to Xin Qianyu, the closest one.

Su Zhong is wearing a three-piece suit today, as usual, meticulous, just like the back hair he combed.He has an extremely handsome face, a good temperament, and knows how to dress up. Every strand of his hair can be stained with an elite atmosphere, making everyone feel ashamed—including her boyfriend Xin Qianyu.

Xin Qianyu always felt that being able to be with Su Zhong was a treasure.

— It is a blessing.

Unfortunately, Xin Qianyu is not the only one who thinks this way, almost everyone thinks this way: Xin Qianyu can be with Su Zhong because Xin Qianyu has found a treasure.

In other words, it is a flower stuck in cow dung.

Sitting at the dining table, apart from Xin Qianyu and Su Zhong, the others are all colleagues of Su Zhong, that is to say, they are all "financial elites" in the popular sense.From this point of view, they are indeed qualified to overlook most wage earners.

Kevin belongs to the arrogant type, so he makes this kind of "looking down" very obvious.

There are also reserved and more polite ones. This lady named Rui Lei smoothed things over for Xin Qianyu: "Well, then, Xiaoyu's school is also an ivy league."

Ivy?League is a top-ranked university in the United States and the university alliance that produces the most Rhodes Scholars in the United States.Chinese people are more used to calling him "Ivy League", but people from investment banks and foreign companies like to mix Chinese and English in their speech, so they call it ivy?league.

Anyway, Ruilei said this to save Xin Qianyu's face.

Kevin didn't intend to let Xin Qianyu go just like that, he just smiled: "Rui Lei, you are too forgetful. Except for Harvard, Yale, Princeton, Columbia?, the rest are not ivy leagues."

The institution that Su Zhong and the others work for basically only accepts people from target schools.As a result, they squeezed the elevator to go to the toilet to meet the top students of the world's top 100 universities.However, such a "highly talented student environment" did not make them feel sympathetic to each other, but instead gave birth to a very weird "chain of contempt for academic qualifications".For example, those who study in the United States look down on those who study in the UK, and those who study in the UK look down on those who study in Hong Kong... and in the United States, there are also Ivy Leagues and very Ivy Leagues.Is the subdivision of the Ivy League belonged to Harvard Yale... All these, the barriers are clear.

Su Zhong was very focused when working, so he didn't notice this kind of barrier that he never put on the surface.Of course, this is also related to Su Zhong being at the top of the chain of contempt.No one despises him, and he despises no one.So he didn't feel the existence of the chain of contempt.

Seeing Xin Qianyu's embarrassment, a man named Jones also helped to change the topic: "Then Xiao Yu just returned to China? What will you do now?"

Xin Qianyu replied slowly, "I'm teaching English."

Jones was a little embarrassed.

This is nothing else, because about 10 minutes ago, Jones joked: "The bastards who study abroad are teaching English when they come back."

Doesn't that mean you slapped Xin Qianyu in the face?

Jones now regrets saying that sentence 10 minutes ago, and he just sneered and said: "Oh, that's good, that's good."

How could Kevin be willing to let go, so he pulled Jones and said, "Didn't you just say that?"

Jones pointed to the wagyu sashimi on the dinner plate, and said to Kevin: "Such a good wagyu beef can't stop your stinky mouth?"

With that said, Jones smiled apologetically at Xin Qianyu.

Xin Qianyu also nodded and smiled: He actually knew that Jones had no malicious intentions, and it was Kevin who was really mean.

However, Xin Qianyu still felt aggrieved.

His aggrievedness did not come from what Kevin said, but from his reluctance to speak.

From just now to now, Kevin doesn't know how many times he has sneered at Xin Qianyu. Even Ruilei and Jones, who met for the first time, knew to help Xin Qianyu, but Su Zhong who was sitting next to Xin Qianyu was always Not a word.

Xin Qianyu couldn't help turning her head to look at Su Zhong, and saw the champagne-colored light pouring from the crystal chandelier onto Su Zhong's ruthless face, his thin and light-colored lips moved slightly, as if meditating What - such a picture, if Su Zhong is not wearing a suit and combing his hair back, it looks like a holy monk is chanting scriptures silently.He seems to be immersed in his own world, separated from the world of mortals by an invisible moat.

Xin Qianyu understood why Su Zhong kept silent, because Su Zhong didn't listen to what they were saying.Kevin probably also found out, so he was so unscrupulous.

Anyone who is familiar with Su Zhong knows that Su Zhong should be calculating now. As for what he is calculating, only he knows. Maybe it is analyzing today's transactions, reviewing today's decisions, or thinking that the model he recently built has something to offer. What kind of problem, or when I saw a math problem by chance, I suddenly had to rely on mental arithmetic to solve it.

People have all kinds of hobbies. Some people like to dance, some like to sing, and Su Zhong likes to calculate.

He is very sensitive to numbers and addicted to numbers. Once he starts the number game in his head, he will have such a great time playing it that he can't stop at all.

This is very strange for ordinary people.But Xin Qianyu felt that this was not "strange", but "different".

Xin Qianyu still remembers that when she first dated Su Zhong, Su Zhong was so dazed.Xin Qianyu Xuxu said something, but Su Zhong didn't respond.If it was someone else, Xin Qianyu would definitely leave in anger, but since the other party was Su Zhong, Xin Qianyu was very worried: Am I too boring?

After being uneasy for a long time, Xin Qianyu asked carefully: "Why don't you speak..."

Su Zhong replied: "I am roughly estimating the turnover of this store."

"Ah?" Xin Qianyu was stunned, "What do you mean?"

Su Zhong looked at the front desk and said: "We sat here for 10 minutes, and 15 people paid the bill. If they all ordered the standard set meal at noon, it would be 2250 yuan. The lunch opening time of this restaurant is 6 hour, then this number can be multiplied by 13500, 30 yuan. According to the catering industry survey I have done, lunch in such restaurants in the CBD generally accounts for about [-]% of the whole day... Of course, this is not necessarily accurate, we still have Consider...for example..." Su Zhong swiped his phone and opened the weather app: "The weather forecast shows that it may rain tonight, so the passenger flow will most likely be affected...But about this, I didn't know it when I was doing statistics. I just made a model..."

Xin Qianyu, a math idiot, has already started to faint.

Su Zhong usually speaks very little, and only when he talks about calculations does he become eloquent—however, to Xin Qianyu, this "eloquence" is equivalent to not talking.

Xin Qianyu couldn't laugh or cry at this time, but she also felt that Su Zhong was very cute.

Probably beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

In Xin Qianyu's eyes, Su Zhong really enjoyed farting.

After saying goodbye to Kevin and the others, Xin Qianyu took the initiative to hold Su Zhong's arm and asked him, "What were you thinking about when you were eating just now? You haven't spoken all the time." Xin Qianyu suppressed herself and tried her best to keep her tone Gentle, it doesn't sound like asking a teacher for a crime.

Su Zhong replied: "I'm reviewing today's transaction."

"Oh..." Xin Qianyu nodded in understanding, but couldn't help feeling a little disappointed.

Today was the first time Su Zhong took Xin Qianyu to meet a colleague, but for 10 minutes, Su Zhong was distracted.When Su Zhong came back to his senses, the atmosphere was already tense.Su Zhong didn't seem to feel anything.

Xin Qianyu sighed.In fact, he has a hot temper. If he meets Kevin, he will directly make Kevin doubt his life.But in front of Su Zhong, Xin Qianyu has always used weak, gentle, kind, and pitiful scripts, which cannot be collapsed.

But it is impossible to choke this breath.

Therefore, Xin Qianyu said teasingly: "Well, does that Kevin not like me?"

Su Zhong said: "You are my boyfriend, why does he like you?"

Xin Qianyu: Gan.

Kevin is said to be a "golden collar" with an annual salary of one million, but he is still a wage earner after all.His pride can only come from people who earn less than him.Maybe he didn't have to despise Xin Qianyu so annoyingly.It's just that "despising" is a way for him to regulate himself.

Although the annual salary is almost one million, the annual mortgage is almost 40, not to mention the appearance of keeping a car and dressing up.For a professional like him, it would be embarrassing to see people without wearing a custom-made suit, and he should drive a good car when going in and out. For all these, spending money is as exaggerated as burning Ming coins.

He is decent to the outside world, but to his boss and clients, he is like a dog.

Now there is another place to spend money, that is, children go to kindergarten.

Since he claims to be an "elite", the child must receive an "elite education".Therefore, he has long set his sights on the most prestigious private kindergarten in the area.The kindergarten's optical fee is 20 yuan a year, and this does not include various miscellaneous activities.

Even so, high-paying parents still want to send their children here, begging kindergartens to charge them hundreds of thousands of tuition fees.

It’s not enough for parents to just afford the tuition, they also have to be highly educated and have a decent job. It’s best for the mother to be a full-time mother who can meet the various weird parent-child teaching requirements of the kindergarten.

In order to ensure that the parents are "qualified", the kindergarten interview not only interviews the children, but also interviews the parents.

On this day, Kevin took his wife and children to the kindergarten for an interview.As soon as he entered the door, he was stunned. The person sitting at the interview booth was Xin Qianyu.

Kevin was completely petrified, his face froze and he couldn't move.

Xin Qianyu smiled lightly, as if she didn't know him: "Please sit down."
