<h4>Chapter 1287: You’ve High Standards Because You’ve Set Your Sights on a Rich, Handsome Man</h4>
Everyone was busy buying new year goods since the lunar new year wasing to an end.
He Xiyan went out to buy new year goods on the third day after returning to her hometown.
She brought some of her favorite snacks, such as purple potato fries, caramelized melon seeds, sandwich cookies, and 1 kilogram of mandarin oranges. Then, she headed to the market to do some grocery shopping.
She lived alone and didn’t eat a lot, so there was no need for her to buy new year goods in bulk. After all, she wouldn’t receive any guests at home over the new year.
She had many rtives including two uncles and one aunt on her paternal side of the family, an aunt and an uncle on her maternal side of her family. Her maternal grandparents were still alive as well but her rtives hardly ever contacted her. They didn’t seem to want anything to do with her ever since her mother passed away.
She knew that they were afraid that she’d borrow money from them to further her studies.
She found it ridiculous because although she had borrowed quite a bit of money, she had never once approached her rtives for money.
She still remembered that when her mother was in a critical condition in the hospital, she had approached her rtives to borrow money but not one of them had been willing to lend her a single cent. Her aunt and uncle would sneak out of the backdoor and pretend that they were busy whenever she visited.
Their actions left her feeling bitterly disappointed because her parents had treated their siblings extremely well.
This was especially true for her maternal uncle. Her mother had lent over 300,000 dors that the family received as the insurance payout from her father’s car ident to that uncle to buy a house. However, her uncle had refused to return the money even when he knew how critically ill her mother was. He even reneged on his promise to lend her money to continue her education.
She felt extremely angry whenever she thought of her uncle’s detestable face.
She resolved to head over to his ce the next day and urge him to return the funds.
She would go to her uncle’s ce every year even though she knew that he didn’t have any intention of returning the money.
She whipped up a delicious spread of braised carp and chicken with chestnut for herself after she returned home. She was always eating vegetarian food on campus and had almost forgotten what meat tasted like.
She ced the food on the table and scooped a bowl of rice for herself.
She sat at a leisurely but her enjoyment of the meal was interrupted almost 30 minutester with a phone call.
It was a call from a male ssmate. He was Chen Shaoping, someone who was very active in the studentmunity.
“Hello...” she said as she brought her phone to her ear.
Soon, she heard himugh as he said, “He Xiyan, I’ve got the information you wanted on that handsome man. His name is Mo Yixuan and he’s from Ye City. He seems to have studied at Harvard before and has returned to Ye City for reasons that I’ve yet to find out. He’s currently undertaking his Master’s at our university. I’ve even obtained his current address that has been sent to you via text. Oh yes! He’s very popr with thedies...so you must decide whether you’d be able to win his heart. Ha ha... there’s always me if you’re rejected!”
He convulsed inughter.
He Xiyan’s face burned bright red and the fact that someone else was privy to her thoughts made her feel extremely embarrassed and awkward.
She remained silent for a long while.
“Thank you...” she said as she finally thanked him.
“Ha ha...no worries. You’ve got really high standards and you’ve set your sights on a tall, rich, and handsome man!” he said with augh.
She didn’t know how to react.
Her face burned with embarrassment and there were no words to describe how awkward she felt.
She hastily thanked him once more and hung up.
Then, she opened up her WeChat application and saw the address details that Chen Shaoping had sent across.
