Chapter 1910: Am I a High-profile Person?
Students who were interested in business all ached to join the Chamber of Comrce, because it was a good place to build connections. However, only those who owned a successful business would be accepted.
In addition, the Chamber of Comrce wasn’t only open to new faces, but was also willing to accept senior students, because so students started up a business during their study in the university. Therefore, among the 5 new mbers, 2 were senior students, while 3 were new faces.
After all, freshn were mostly between 17 to 19. Only a few of them had a start-up, and even fewer of them could be successful.
In fact, very few of them established a new company on their own. Most of them relied on their families’ support to beco successful.
Anyway, they had so skills.
Once Gu Ning walked inside, she beca the focus of everyone’s attention. They all had heard of Gu Ning, but not many of them had seen her. They were aware that she was pretty, but was still stunned by her outstanding appearance when they saw her in real life.
Afterwards, several people looked at her unkindly. Two were girls, and the other was a boy.
Gu Ning was already used to unreasonable hostility, so she stayed calm.
“Hi, Gu Ning, have a seat!” Nie Chenyang gave Gu Ning a gentle smile.
“Hi, President Nie.” Gu Ning gave him a nod, then walked to the sofa. However, right after she had a few steps, a girl aggressively walked over to block Gu Ning’s way.
“President Nie, how co I don’t know Gu Ning is one of our new mbers? Her na isn’t on the list.” Yuan Yilin questioned.
Yuan Yilin was the vice president of the Chamber of Comrce. She was also Yuan Shuyan’s older cousin. However, they weren’t closely related, because their grandfathers were biological brothers, but their fathers were cousins.
Hearing that, Nie Chenyang frowned in displeasure. “This must be the fault of our staff. They lost Gu Ning’s information chart, but I told Gu Ning to send a new one, so her na should be on the list.”
In fact, Nie Chenyang had the suspicion that soone deliberately dumped Gu Ning’s information chart.
After all, mbers of the Chamber of Comrce weren’t on the sa boat. There were people of the dominant families drawing others over to their own side. They were always secretly competing against one another.
If soone dumped Gu Ning’s information chart on purpose, who could that person be?
Nie Chenyang thought of Yuan Yilin at first, because Gu Ning didn’t get along with Yuan Shuyan, and that wasn’t a secret. Yuan Yilin was Yuan Shuyan’s older cousin, so it was reasonable if she did that for Yuan Shuyan.
However, it was just a suspicion and he didn’t have any evidence, so he didn’t say it aloud. If he did, it would only make the situation worse.
Hearing that, Yuan Yilin looked annoyed. To her surprise, Nie Chenyang already found out and fixed it.
Because of that, Yuan Yilin had to close her mouth.
Compared with Yuan Shuyan, Yuan Yilin was much better at socializing. She knew when to stop and shut her mouth. Otherwise, she wouldn’t be able to own a successful company at such a young age and beco the vice president of the Chamber of Comrce.
After that, they began to have the eting.
It was just an introduction eting where new mbers got to know old mbers, so it wasn’t formal. Therefore, it didn’t last long and was over in half an hour.
The president and two vice presidents gave a speech first, then they began to introduce themselves.
In the end, Nie Chenyang said, “Today’s just an introduction eting. The National Day holiday will begin tomorrow. I wish you all a happy holiday, and we’ll have a formal eting after the holiday is over.”
Our regular eting is normally on Saturday, so we need to occupy so of your free ti, but we won’t have it every week. Normally it’s held once a month, and a larger one every season, or when it’s necessary.”
The small etings are simply a gathering of all the mbers in our school. mbers outside will be invited for the large etings. They’re mostly successful entrepreneurs with a high status.”
Although we won’t force you to be present, we do hope you can be present as long as you have ti, because it’s good for everyone.”
Nobody was forced to co, but no one was willing to be absent for no reason.
“Alright, you can leave now.”
The eting was over, and people left one after another.
Right after Gu Ning walked out of the teaching building, Yuan Yilin stopped her by calling her from behind.
“Vice President Yuan, may I help?” asked Gu Ning.
“Nothing special. As a senior, I just want to remind you to keep a low profile. There are countless people with power in the capital. If you offend soone you shouldn’t annoy by accident, your future might be affected, which won’t do you any good,” said Yuan Yilin.
Hearing that, Gu Ning had a frown. She understood what Yuan Yilin was implying. In fact, after learning her na, Gu Ning guessed that she could be a mber of the Yuan family.
Given Yuan Yilin’s aggressive attitude towards her at their first eting, Gu Ning was sure Yuan Yilin disliked her.
Yuan Yilin was either jealous of her or afraid she might steal the man she admired away. If not, there was only one possibility that it had sothing to do with Yuan Shuyan.
If Yuan Yilin was a mber of the Yuan family, she and Yuan Shuyan should be cousins. In that case, it was reasonable that she hated her.
Besides, Yuan Yilin now talked to her in a threatening way, so Gu Ning was more sure that she was a mber of the Yuan family.
Knowing that, Gu Ning thought of the fact that her information chart had been deliberately removed. It might have sothing to do with Yuan Yilin too.
Gu Ning was unwilling to think of her as a bad person, but it was possible given Yuan Yilin’s unkind attitude towards her today.
Either way, Gu Ning didn’t bother to pay more attention to it, because it didn’t cause any harm.
“Am I a high-profile person?” Gu Ning blinked at Yuan Yilin with an innocent expression, as if she had no idea that she kept a high profile.
Hearing that, Yuan Yilin was mad. She could see that Gu Ning was playing dumb with her. “Gu Ning, rumors about you are everywhere in our school recently. Isn’t that enough to prove your high profile?”
“Oh!” Gu Ning sighed in a resigned tone, “I can’t help it. Perhaps because I’m too outstanding, there are always people who are jealous of . They keep making things difficult for , but I’ve never ever caused trouble for anyone of my own accord.”
“You...” To Yuan Yilin’s surprise, Gu Ning was so confident in herself. All of a sudden, she didn’t know what to say. However, Gu Ning was right, because she indeed hadn’t heard of rumors that Gu Ning had caused trouble for anyone. Instead, she seed to be the victim.
