Chapter 631: Chapter 605: Jealousy and Assistance (Thanks to Silver League Master kateliu for the Silver Reward +4)
In Xiaoqian’s school, the overall conditions of the graduate dormitories were not as good as those of the university dormitories. Although not everyone could afford to buy a house like Xiaoqian, a significant number of people chose to rent a house near the school.
Lu Xiaocha remained in the graduate dormitory building, and after having dinner, she led Xiaoqian to use the internet.
“Boss Qian, how far is it from your place to the school?” Lu Xiaocha knew that Xiaoqian had moved out long ago.
“It’s about ten minutes by car. The house was bought by my future mother-in-law, and it’s in my boyfriend’s name. Speaking of which, Xiao Cha, I have to thank you for your help, which allowed me to have an extra house.”n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
Xiaoqian’s level of deception had reached perfection as she could tell blatant lies without a trace.
Lu Xiaocha only knew that Xiaoqian lived off-campus but didn’t know she owned a house.
It seemed as if a beast was roaring in her heart, wondering why people of the same age could easily have everything others wanted while Chen Xiaoqian could not.
Xiaoqian walked ahead, and without looking back, she could feel the agitation in Lu Xiaocha’s heart.
Not everyone has mental illnesses, but everyone has negative emotions, regardless of their education.
For example, jealousy is an emotion that exists in everyone. Everyone is envious, some more than others.
Everyone experiences varying degrees of jealousy in different situations. Moderate jealousy can have a positive impact on people, such as when friends around you are better off than you, causing you to feel jealous and more motivated to work. Seeing that some classmates perform better than you in academics, you may feel jealous and strive harder to surpass them, which we can consider as a benefit of envy.
However, once jealousy becomes excessive, it will turn into a beast that will not only bite others but also harm oneself.
Xiaoqian now wanted to see whether the beast of jealousy in Lu Xiaocha’s heart would bite her.
If she could resist biting, Boss Qian wouldn’t take any further action against her, and they would settle things between them.
But if Lu Xiaocha couldn’t resist… she couldn’t blame Xiaoqian.
They entered Lu Xiaocha’s dormitory, and after turning on the computer, Xiaoqian opened a document and began working on it, while Lu Xiaocha stood by her side and watched for a while, couldn’t help but admire Xiaoqian.
Chen Xiaoqian’s title, “Great Boss Qian,” was not given in vain. Such a complex thesis flowed like clouds and water at her fingertips, even without the need to search for data.
“Boss Qian, don’t you need to prepare materials?” Lu Xiaocha couldn’t help but ask.
Xiaoqian nodded, “They are all in my head.”
She is beautiful, has a wealthy boyfriend, received a national scholarship, lives in a house “bought” by her in-laws, drives a car, enjoys the exclusive favor of the big boss, and even when taking a Ph.D. exam, she has the protection of the big boss. Lu Xiaocha sat on the bed with a book in hand, thinking about Xiaoqian.
This goddess-like woman seemed to have hacked into the game, and there was nothing she couldn’t do.
Lu Xiaocha thought of the expressions of the boys on campus when they mentioned Xiaoqian, thinking of herself from her first year to being a graduate student with no one paying attention to her, thinking of her still trying to find work everywhere due to lack of money to take a Ph.D. exam, and thinking of Xiaoqian’s life. The jealousy in her heart continued to ferment.
Xiaoqian’s fingers didn’t stop typing, but her heart was crystal clear.
Jealousy is a beast that cannot withstand temptation. Even close friends can make mistakes because of jealousy. When the beast grows, it devours a person’s conscience and self-control, reaching out for things it shouldn’t.
Xiaoqian had encountered many psychological counseling cases in which people were betrayed by their best friends or friends. Some lost their men to their girlfriends, and some were sabotaged by their friends. These people would ask Xiaoqian what they owed them.
Little did they know that it’s not about owing someone else, but themselves being too much better than the others.
Jealousy only occurs among people who consider themselves equals. For example, Lu Xiaocha is in the same group as Xiaoqian. In Lu Xiaocha’s heart, there should not be such a significant discrepancy between people of similar ages. It’s like a beggar won’t be jealous of the world’s richest person but will be jealous of a beggar who begs for more than them.
Xiaoqian closed her eyes, thinking of Yu Minglang’s mother, her future mother-in-law, who always asked Xiaoqian why she didn’t watch cliche dramas. She thought Xiaoqian was too focused on her career and studies and didn’t want Xiaoqian to be so tired. She hoped Xiaoqian could relax, but Xiaoqian felt that looking at the world from a psychologist’s perspective could also be fun.
Using her insight to observe others’ petty tricks was much more entertaining than the fake things on TV, right?
It took less than an hour for Xiaoqian to complete a thesis that others would need a week or even longer to finish. She took out the note that Professor Liu had given her, and on it was Professor Qi’s email.
“Ah, maybe it’s because I had spicy food for lunch, but my stomach hurts a bit. I need to go to the bathroom. Xiao Cha, could you help me send an email?”
Xiaoqian stood up.
“Sure.”
When Xiaoqian left, Lu Xiaocha sat in the chair and opened her email, preparing to send the attachment. Suddenly, a voice appeared in her head.
What would happen if Chen Xiaoqian didn’t send this?
This thought flashed, and Lu Xiaocha gathered her thoughts and continued typing the address. When she was just one digit away from sending the email to Professor Qi, she suddenly remembered what Xiaoqian had said during their meal.
Xiaoqian said that the fate of her life, whether it rises or falls, was all in Lu Xiaocha’s hands.
In her own hands? Lu Xiaocha looked at her reflection on the computer screen.
She bought this second-hand computer with a big screen after bargaining for quite a while. Why did she have to live in such a place, and why couldn’t she match Xiaoqian?
The beast in her heart was roaring, “Destroy her, destroy her!”
Lu Xiaocha’s hands began to tremble, and the little good in her fought fiercely with the beast of jealousy in her heart. The world seemed so quiet that she could only hear her racing heartbeat.
After she entered Professor Qi’s email address, she didn’t send the attachment but sent a blank document instead to see if Professor Qi had an automatic reply.
As expected, there was an automatic reply from Professor Qi shortly after she sent the email.
I am Old Qi, do you know I am waiting for you~
Such an informal tone wasn’t what a world-class authority figure should have. Lu Xiaocha heard the sound of flushing water from the bathroom and quickly deleted all the data in the sent section, making sure there were no traces left.
In the inbox, there was only Professor Qi’s automatic reply.
“Xiao Cha, did you send it?” Xiaoqian came out of the bathroom.
“I sent it, and he has an automatic reply.”
“Thank you, you really helped me a lot.” Xiaoqian said sincerely, her eyes shining mischievously like a little fox.
What do you think?
