Chapter 178: The Rebellious Girl’s Transformation Plan
by xennovelJiang Qin felt that the term “edification” was actually a mysterious word. He had never seen anyone who had been enlightened to reform their evil ways. However, there was one aloof little cutie who suddenly learned to call him “brother” after being edified.
Moreover, she learned it quickly and well, and could now receive and send freely.
This is the so-called learning well for a lifetime, learning badly in a flash.
It’s quick to lead someone astray, but it’s impossible to edify someone in a good direction without a lot of time.
He Yijun may not be unaware of this principle, but for the sake of his rebellious daughter, he must have tried all sorts of methods. Now, one more is no more, one less is no less.
As a businessman, President He is shrewd and cunning, not easy to deal with, but if you put him in the position of an old father, he must be full of loopholes and soft-hearted.
Attack him unprepared, poke his weaknesses, achieve the goal, and retire successfully.
Jiang Qin’s ability to take his entrepreneurship to this level is mainly due to his ingenious strategy of attacking the heart.
“President Jiang, please have some tea first. I’ll go call Manqi over. She’s playing computer games next door.”
“Okay, President He.”
After a while, Jiang Qin had already drunk his second cup of tea before he saw an irritated He Manqi.
She recently dyed her hair blonde, cut a slanted bang covering one eye, and the exposed eye was heavily shadowed. Her ears had three piercings on each side, with the highest one even pierced on the cartilage.
Jiang Qin almost spat out the tea in his mouth, thinking that this was exactly the same as Gao Wenhui’s avatar.
In the era when non-mainstream was prevalent, fashion was indeed the same everywhere.
No wonder she’s the mother of rebels, so damn rebellious.
“Hurry up and call him brother.” He Yijun had a stern father’s expression.
Jiang Qin was inexplicably demoted by a generation and immediately disagreed, “President He, I don’t want to call you uncle. It’s better to let Manting call me uncle.”
“Uh, right, call him uncle.”
He Manting sneered and flipped her long hair, “Why don’t I just call him grandpa then?”
Jiang Qin had no objection to this, thinking that this was indeed a case of a doting father and a filial daughter.
He Yijun’s old face instantly turned as black as the bottom of a pot, “Look at this child, spoiled by me since childhood, doesn’t understand anything. As long as it’s something that can go against me, she won’t miss a single thing.”
“Take it slow, no rush.”
He Manqi glanced at them, “What do you want me for? I haven’t finished my game yet!”
He Yijun pointed at Jiang Qin, “Follow your uncle to Linchuan University for a walk and relax.”
“I’m not going. I finally got the school to give me a break, and I still have to go to school. Kill me!”
“Is that a break for you? That’s called suspension.” He Yijun was so angry that his mouth went crooked.
He Manqi had a proud look, “Suspension, break, what’s the difference?”
Jiang Qin directly sat up from his chair, “University is different from high school. You can go and take a look, just treat it as playing. When you go back, you can brag to your girlfriends, saying that a cold and aloof male god took you for a tour around the university.”
“?”
He Manqi thought to herself, “Like hell he’s a cold male god”, but she was still a bit tempted and said, “Then I’ll give you face this time. If it’s not fun, I’ll come back immediately!”
He Yijun breathed a sigh of relief, “President Jiang, sorry for the trouble.”
“No trouble, it’s all for mutual benefit.”
Jiang Qin waved his hand and took He Manqi to Linchuan University.
They first went to the entrepreneurship base 208 for a round and dealt with some order issues.
Lu Feiyu, Dong Wenhao and the others were playing cards, with paper strips pasted all over their faces like a curtain.
Su Nai, Wei Lanlan and a group of girls were painting their nails while chatting about the various gossip exposed on the forum.
He Manqi looked with wide eyes, “This is the legendary university?”
“This is indeed the legendary university.” Jiang Qin’s mouth twitched.
Group activities √
Afterwards, Jiang Qin took He Manqi to the teaching building, visited the internal layout, and walked around the classroom doors.
Seeing those little couples holding hands to class together and the college students openly playing with their phones in class, He Manqi continued to stare with wide eyes.
“This… is university??”
“This is university.”
Classroom experience √
Next, Jiang Qin took her to Xitian, the water bar, the sports field, and the maple forest.
Young couples were everywhere, showing off their love in all sorts of poses. There were also many people having get-togethers, playing cards, mahjong, and building blocks. All the activities made He Manqi’s eyes widen.
“Is this what university is like?”
Jiang Qin nodded silently with a cold face.
Extracurricular time √
Jiang Qin thought for a moment and felt that the only thing left unvisited was the dormitory environment, but with the stinky feet smell in the boys’ dorm, there was really no need to visit.
So, he brought He Manqi to the girls’ dormitory building of the School of Finance and called Jiang Tian, saying that his sister from his hometown came to visit, and asked her to take He Manqi upstairs to look around.
The reason for not choosing the little rich girl’s dormitory was that there were more normal people in their dorm, which was boring. But Jiang Tian’s dormitory was different. The girls inside had their own unique characteristics and were very attractive.
After a while, He Manqi walked out of the dormitory building with a dazed head, and her eyes showed a hint of awe when she looked at Jiang Qin.
“What did you chat about?”
“They said you are Linchuan University’s number one cold and aloof male god.” He Manqi swallowed.
Jiang Qin smiled calmly, with modesty appearing on his face, “They’re right.”
“They also said many campus belles like you, but you don’t pay any attention to them, very cold yet charming.”
“Don’t say things that everyone knows. Tell me something I don’t know, something fun.”
He Manqi thought for a moment, “They said they’re going to a hot spring together during the New Year holiday, and also said some guy got rejected after confessing today. They even compared… whose chest was bigger. Do you know about this?”
Jiang Qin, “…”
“Do you need me to tell you the comparison result?”
“No need, my eyes are the ruler.”
Dormitory atmosphere √
Jiang Qin changed the subject, “Now you’ve seen all aspects of university life, any insights?”
He Manqi pursed her lips and thought, “University seems very fun, completely different from high school.”
“Manqi, the things you played in high school, skipping class to go to internet cafes, those ways of gaining pleasure are seen as abnormal in others’ eyes. That’s not true happiness. Compared to what we play in university, it’s not on the same level at all. You saw it yourself, the joys of university are diverse. But if you can’t get into university, you won’t be able to experience this life. When you grow up, you’ll regret it, because university is almost the most beautiful time of your youth.”
“Really?”
“What do you like to play usually?” Jiang Qin asked back.
He Manqi thought with her arms folded, “I like going to internet cafes with my girlfriends to play Audition Online.”
“Then if you go to university, you can play Audition Online with your girlfriends in the dorm every day. Your dad won’t be able to control you at all and can only call you longingly, asking ‘Girl, what did you do today? Do you have enough money to spend?'”
He Manqi took a deep breath, “Brother Jiang Qin, I want to go to university.”
Jiang Qin gave a thumbs up, thinking to himself that with this statement from her, he could report back to her dad.
Learning well lasts a lifetime, learning bad takes an instant.
If you want He Manqi to yearn for university, you can’t show her the studying and exam preparation, that’s too bitter. If she sees that, she’ll think, “I’m already fed up with high school, and university is still like this. I might as well drop out now!”
But if you show her the lively and interesting side of university students, she might fantasize about that life herself.
Because for He Manqi now, studying is something her dad forces her to do, and she’s completely unwilling herself. But if it’s transformed into studying in order to have fun in university, it’s probably different.
Of course, He Manqi’s enthusiasm may only last three minutes. After today, she may revert to her previous state. But in any case, President He owes this favor.
The current effect is not bad, but in Jiang Qin’s view, it seems not explosive enough.
“Manqi, dye your hair back and cut this diagonal bangs. It’ll look much cleaner and prettier.”
“No way!” He Manqi widened her eyes, “That’s so outdated! All the girls in our school are like this!”
“Outdated?”
“Of course, black hair is so outdated!”
“Looks like I need to forcibly correct your aesthetics.”
Jiang Qin took a deep breath and took out his phone to call the little rich girl, asking her to come over with a ponytail.
After a while, Feng Nanshu appeared from the girls’ dormitory building with a ponytail, wearing a light pink crew neck sweater inside and a short white down jacket outside. Her eyes sparkled as she ran over with pattering steps.
He Manqi was stunned, her eyes wide open. When she met those aloof eyes, her heart trembled involuntarily and she quickly lowered her head.
“See, beauty and ugliness have nothing to do with hairstyle.”
Jiang Qin pointed at Feng Nanshu and said, “I’ll find you a shop and let’s change your hair back, same as this sister’s, okay?”
He Manqi was in a daze for a while, and suddenly a light flashed in her eyes, “Okay!”
Feng Nanshu glanced at He Manqi, her delicate nose wrinkling slightly, “Jiang Qin, who is she?”
Jiang Qin coughed, “A sister of a business partner.”
“Hold my hand and take me for a walk.”
“Let’s get in the car first. I’ll take you to get He Manqi’s hair cut, and then we’ll eat together.”
After a while, the three of them found a relatively large hair salon outside. He Manqi was so excited that she had to get the exact same haircut as Feng Nanshu, no matter how much it cost.
She felt that the sister in front of her was too beautiful, both in appearance and temperament, all devastatingly cool.
What did she dye her hair and pierce her ears for?
It was for this unique sense of cool!
But now it seems that despite all her efforts, she couldn’t even touch Sister Nanshu’s level.
It doesn’t matter if you can’t reach it, start by imitating!
So, the hairdresser cut He Manqi’s hair exactly the same as Feng Nanshu’s.
He Manqi herself had a good foundation, she was just trying too hard to be flamboyant, which made her look outdated instead. Now, after changing to Feng Nanshu’s style, she more or less had a bit of a goddess flavor.
High nose bridge, big eyes, black hair in a high ponytail, simply pure and aesthetic.
After the haircut, He Manqi took off her earrings and studs and secretly imitated the little rich girl’s gaze in the mirror.
Holy!
Am I this much of a goddess?
He Manqi felt like she discovered a new continent, her heart pounding at her brand new image.
“Brother Jiang Qin, am I pretty?”
Jiang Qin smiled calmly, “When you go back to school, all the girls will be gritting their teeth, and all the boys will be tongue-tied. If your studies improve a bit more, my god, you’ll be many people’s ‘white moonlight’.”
He Manqi widened her eyes, “What does ‘white moonlight’ mean?”
“Just like your Sister Nanshu. Even many years after graduating from high school, when people talk about who the most divine girl in school was, they probably think of her. I remember back then in school, many boys would specially go to the back door of their class to peek at her. This is ‘white moonlight’.”
After saying this, Jiang Qin looked at Feng Nanshu, “Why is your face so red?”
Feng Nanshu looked at him with clear eyes, “Brother Jiang Qin, am I pretty?”
“Don’t learn this!”
“Oh.”
