Inside the car, Jiang Wenxi wore a light blue dress, the hem of which swayed gently with the slight movement of the vehicle, making her skin appear even whiter and more radiant.
Her long, black hair was casually draped over her shoulders, with a few stray strands clinging to her neck, adding a touch of languid ease.
On her left wrist, she wore a simple platinum watch, its dial gleaming softly in the light; around her neck, a blue diamond necklace sparkled, the facets of the diamonds refracting delicate blue light, echoing the color of her dress; on her right wrist, a matching blue diamond bracelet dangled gently, making a subtle clinking sound with the slightest movement of her fingers, exquisite yet understated.
On her feet were a pair of chunky high heels, the off-white heels of just the right thickness, making her legs appear even longer and straighter, while also providing stability and comfort without the fatigue often associated with stilettos. A Rolls-Royce Silver Ghost
in Obsidian Black smoothly
came to a stop, instantly carving out a quiet area in the noisy school gate, attracting countless curious glances.
The male bodyguard in the driver’s seat, Jiang Nan, stood tall and straight, his black suit perfectly pressed without a single wrinkle. His movements as he opened the car door were swift and steady. The ordinary bodyguard in the passenger seat, dressed in understated casual wear, had sharp, eagle-like eyes, quickly scanning the surroundings, checking for potential risks.
Jiang Wenxi sat in the spacious back seat, her fingertips lightly touching the car window. Her gaze swept over the bustling crowd at the school gate, landing on the red banner.
This was where she was about to begin her new life. She was slightly lost in thought, wondering to herself: Have Fu Siya and the others arrived yet?
Behind the Rolls-Royce, a black Hummer and two seven-seater vans pulled up in succession. The four bodyguards in the Hummer immediately sat up straight, while the staff in the vans organized their belongings, ready to respond at any moment.
This display of power was particularly eye-catching at the bustling school gate, making it impossible to go unnoticed.
Students and parents around cast curious and amazed glances, whispers rising and falling:
“My goodness, which wealthy family’s daughter is this? To mobilize such a large convoy!”
“Is that a Rolls-Royce Silver Ghost leading the way? This is incredible! If I remember correctly, you can’t buy this car even if you have the money!”
“I wonder whose child is this, to have such a grand entrance. She’s probably the most prestigious new student in our school this year!”
Amidst the discussions, Butler Jiang Bo was the first to get out of the van next to the passenger seat.
Jiang Wenxi paid no attention to the stares and whispers, glancing up at Jiang Nan.
Jiang Nan immediately understood, got out of the car, quickly walked around to the back seat, respectfully opened the car door, and carefully placed one hand above the door frame to prevent her from bumping her head.
“Let’s go register first,” Jiang Wenxi said softly, her tone calm but with an undeniable certainty. As soon as she finished speaking, she prepared to get out of the car.
In fact, the convoy had already captured the attention of everyone at the school gate as it slowly drove up.
After all, it was a neat and orderly convoy, led by a powerful Rolls-Royce Silver Ghost, followed by a black Hummer and a minivan. The sheer scale of the procession made it particularly eye-catching among the bustling registration crowd.
He was dressed in a well-fitting dark Zhongshan suit, his hair neatly combed. He walked steadily around to the back seat of the Rolls-Royce Silver Ghost, bowed slightly, and gently and respectfully opened the car door, while carefully placing his hand above the door frame to prevent Jiang Wenxi from bumping her head.
Jiang Wenxi stepped out of the car, her light blue dress swaying gently with her movements, revealing her slender, fair ankles and delicate chunky heels.
Sunlight bathed her, making the blue diamond necklace around her neck even more dazzling, giving her an aura of cool elegance.
She had only taken a few steps into the campus when she heard a clear, cheerful voice calling from a short distance away: “Wenxi! Over here, over here!”
Jiang Wenxi looked in the direction of the voice and saw Fu Siya standing by the flowerbed at the campus entrance, waving at her, surrounded by several well-dressed young men and women. Ma Yun and Jiang Xunye spotted her immediately and quickly approached.
Ma Yun’s face beamed with a hearty smile, her tone full of surprise: “Wenxi, you look great today! The light blue dress goes perfectly with that diamond jewelry!” Jiang Xunye nodded in agreement, his gaze lingering briefly on her, his eyes filled with undisguised admiration.
“This outfit suits you very well today.” As she approached, Fu Siya took Jiang Wenxi’s arm, her tone slightly reproachful, “I thought you would come earlier, so I waited for you here early, but who knew you would be so late!”
Hearing this, Jiang Wenxi couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow, her red lips curving slightly, “Didn’t they say there were three days to register? There’s plenty of time, what’s the rush?”
As soon as she said this, the people around Fu Siya nodded in agreement, “That’s right, we were too hasty, there was no need to rush so early.”
Fu Siya immediately grabbed Jiang Wenxi’s arm, her tone urgent and excited, “I just checked, there aren’t many people registering at our finance department, we don’t have to wait in line for too long, let’s go quickly!”
After saying that, she pulled Jiang Wenxi towards the registration point, completely ignoring the bodyguards and nannies still guarding the convoy behind them.
Only bodyguard Jiang Wen quickly caught up, his steps light yet steady, keeping a half-step behind Jiang Wenxi. He lowered his voice and respectfully asked, “Miss, there’s a queue at the registration desk. Shall I go queue for you?”
“No need, I can do it myself,” Jiang Wenxi replied calmly without turning her head.
“Okay,” Jiang Wen immediately agreed, saying nothing more. He simply slowed his pace slightly, quietly retreating a short distance behind Jiang Wenxi, his sharp gaze scanning the surroundings, constantly alert to any potential risks, silently protecting her safety.
Jiang Wenxi’s entourage once again attracted frequent glances from students along the way. Many even stopped to whisper among themselves, exclaiming in surprise:
“My God, this is terrifying! She even has bodyguards with her!”
“Who is that girl in the light blue dress? She’s so beautiful! Look at the people next to her, isn’t that Ma Yun, the second young master of the Ma family? And Jiang Xunye, the eldest young master of the Jiang family? They’re definitely from the upper class!”
“I know Ma Yun and Jiang Xunye; they’re both heirs to some of the city’s top wealthy families. But I’ve never seen this girl before. She looks like she’s from a very wealthy family!”
At this moment, a well-informed student in the crowd whispered:
“Don’t you know? She’s Jiang Wenxi, the owner of ‘Number One Tan Palace’! I heard she just returned to the country recently and is studying finance at our school!”
