Back to the 1980s: Becoming the Villain's Lucky Wife

Chapter 420: Chapter 450: You Guys Have Good Taste

Qin Jiao said, "My family is doing so well now, and it’s all thanks to your mom’s help. No matter what, since she invited me to her wedding, I have to go. Besides, in this lifetime, I want to see her happy."

Although they were mother-in-law and daughter-in-law in their past life, their relationship had been very unpleasant. They had treated each other as adversaries from the start, which made it impossible for them to ever truly connect.

In this lifetime, however, their relationship started off well. Even now, despite her fake marriage to Shen Yi, she found herself willing to grow closer to Du Liya.

Shen Yi was overjoyed to hear this. "Great," he said. "I’ll go tell my mom right now. I’ll ask her to help us with the passport applications and all that."

"Mhm."

Qin Jiao watched him go, a helpless smile on her face as he left so cheerfully. She then turned back to her book.

Christmas was still a while away, so she needed to make the most of her study time. She opened her civil law textbook.

Time flew by after that. Qin Jiao’s days were packed, and she would occasionally sit in on classes in the computer science department. At first, she would sit in the back, but one time, Shen Yi, who was sitting up front, turned around and saw her. Then, while the professor was looking down, he hunched over, grabbed his book, ran to the back, and plopped down right next to Qin Jiao.

School had been in session for a while, and Shen Yi was so handsome and smart that many of his classmates knew who he was. Now, watching him brazenly sit next to a beautiful girl, they immediately started winking and exchanging glances.

Shen Yi glared back at anyone who dared to give him a knowing look.

But when it was Qin Jiao’s turn to glare at him, his expression turned into a cheeky grin, leaving her at a loss for words.

After class ended, someone who was friendly with Shen Yi and knew Qin Jiao was his girlfriend joked, "Hey, gorgeous, you’d better keep a good eye on Shen Yi. He’s already been voted our Department Heartthrob!"

Shen Yi’s eyes went wide. "What nonsense are you spouting!"

Qin Jiao was surprised to see that while Shen Yi’s eyes widened, he wasn’t genuinely angry. It seemed that somewhere along the line, the once ill-tempered Shen Yi had managed to make quite a few friends in his class.

When the corners of his mouth lifted into a smile, he looked bright and handsome, with just a hint of a bad-boy charm.

One could say that the Shen Yi before her now was far more charming than the man he had been in their previous life.

Qin Jiao smiled and said, "My boyfriend is the Department Heartthrob, huh? That’s great. You all have good taste."

Everyone: "..."

They hadn’t expected Shen Yi’s girlfriend to be not only beautiful but also so poised. Seeing how calm and composed she was, the guys who had been teasing them were the first to look embarrassed.

As for the few female students in the computer science department, they let out a quiet sigh upon learning that the beautiful girl was Shen Yi’s girlfriend.

’Why are all the handsome guys always taken so early?’

’And of all people, their rival is that formidable! It’s so infuriating!’

Amid a few bursts of laughter, the group started to trickle out. Shen Yi said in a low voice, "Jiao Jiao, why didn’t you tell me beforehand that you were coming to sit in on a computer science class? I could have saved you a seat."

"It’s fine. I saw there were plenty of empty seats in the back."

"From now on, just tell me beforehand which class you want to sit in on."

Seeing how insistent Shen Yi was, Qin Jiao decided not to argue the point. Just as she nodded, a few students walked toward them. As it happened, they were all from the law school.

Among them were Xu Zhengyang, who had a crush on Qin Jiao, and Li Man, a sophomore who had a crush on Xu Zhengyang and was also hostile toward Qin Jiao.

The campus was large, but since they were in the same college, Li Man had long since noticed that Qin Jiao and a guy from the computer science department were inseparable. With Xu Zhengyang present this time, she seized the opportunity and said with a smile, "Qin Jiao, this must be your boyfriend, right? You sure move fast. The first semester of freshman year isn’t even over, and you’ve already found someone?"
