Chapter 236: The Perfect Match

In the blink of an eye, the previously lively classroom suddenly fell silent.
Lu Miao reluctantly opened her eyes and looked up.
She saw the homeroom teacher, Li Sihai, walking in with several people behind him, each carrying a large box in their hands.
Li Sihai walked up to the podium and introduced in a nonchalant tone, “These are the staff from Starlight Culture.”
“Starlight Culture? Isn’t that an entertainment company?”
“Yes, I remember several top actors and actresses in the entertainment industry are from this company. They’re quite powerful.”
“Why would the staff from an entertainment company come to our school?
Could it be that they’re here to select students for a movie?”
“That’s not impossible. There’s that director Zhang who always likes to come to schools to scout for inexperienced newcomers.”
The students in the class whispered as they lowered their heads, discussing the situation.
At the front of the classroom, the leading man among the staff, Qin Yue, stepped forward with a smile, “Hello, everyone. I’m Qin Yue, and I’m also Lu Siyu’s agent.”
“Today is the official debut day of Lu Siyu in the entertainment industry. After discussing with the company, she has decided to give each student in Zhenhai
High School a set of study materials and a small gift as a token of appreciation for the school’s support and nurturing.”
Upon hearing it was Lu Siyu, the classmates who were initially gossiping lost interest instantly.
No wonder the morning advertisements were so grand; it turned out to be her official debut day.
To debut in the entertainment industry with an international luxury brand endorsement was unprecedented and remarkable.
If it were someone else, they might have offered their congratulations with joy. However, the person in question was Lu Siyu, and because of Lu Miao’s connection, it wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that their class had a grudge against her.
Now, she came before them with gifts, clearly flaunting her success and intentionally taunting them.
No wonder even Li Sihai was unhappy.
Qin Yue noticed the lackluster response from the students below. They were receiving gifts, shouldn’t they be happy? Why did they seem so uninterested?
Li Sihai didn’t sound very sincere as he spoke, “Let’s thank Lu Siyu for her gifts. ”
The students below politely clapped a few times.
Qin Yue gestured for the people behind him to step forward and distribute the items from the boxes to the students. After they finished, they left, and the classroom immediately erupted into discussions.
“Boss, what should we do with these things? Do you want me to throw them away?” Shen Muhan asked, disdain evident in his voice.
As Lu Miao’s most loyal follower, Shen Muhan was thoroughly disgusted by Lu Siyu’s actions. While it appeared she was giving them gifts, in reality, she was just trying to show off her success and humiliate them, as well as Lu Miao.
Shen Muhan wished he could just throw the gifts right at Lu Siyu’s face.
The other students in the class didn’t know what to do, so they all looked at Lu Miao, waiting for her to speak.
“Why throw them away?”
Lu Miao casually picked up the gift box in front of her and opened it. “Shen Muhan, wasting is shameful. Thrift and frugality are traditional virtues of our
Chinese people.”
“But Lu Siyu is clearly here to deliberately flaunt and mock us. Using the things she gave me is no different than killing me directly,” Shen Muhan retorted angrily.
“Yeah, she just wants to buy the hearts of students from other classes and disgust us in the process. We don’t need her gifts.”
“That’s right, no one cares about her measly offerings.”
The other students in the class immediately echoed with indignation.
Lu Miao looked at the contents of the gift box. The stationery was of good quality, and the skincare products were probably items she would endorse later on. They were all from top brands, ensuring their quality.
In addition, there were a few postcards and blessing cards from Lu Siyu.
“Open the box, throw away the postcards and blessing cards, and then seal it back up. Shen Muhan, call a courier at noon and donate these items, in the name of our class, to the children in poverty-stricken mountain areas.”
Shen Muhan’s eyes lit up, “Great idea! It will not only help the children in the mountain areas but also build a good reputation for our class. Hehe, Boss, you are indeed smart!”
The other students agreed immediately, and everyone sprang into action.
Lu Miao looked at the postcards from Lu Siyu on the table, touching her chin. Lu Siyu’s appearance was refined, her smile sweet, the kind of “girl-next-door” look that many people liked nowadays.
When she had gone to the capital for the knowledge competition before, she had been curious about how Lu Siyu managed to break free from CEO Zhang’s pestering when he was entangled with the love charm. Now it seemed she had found a way and didn’t hesitate to use it. Since she did not have the money to deal with the love charm and CEO Zhang, she might as well use it directly.
As one of the top 20 tycoons in the country, there was no need to talk about resources and connections.
It was probably one of the reasons she could enter the top entertainment company and secure a luxury brand endorsement on her debut day.
Lu Miao checked Weibo on her phone and found that Lu Siyu was trending as the top search, followed closely by the word “explosion.”
When she clicked on the hashtag, most of the posts were wondering about Lu Siyu’s identity and how she managed to secure a luxury brand endorsement on her debut day. Some speculated that she was from a prominent family, while others guessed she was the daughter of a high-ranking executive in an entertainment company. In any case, they thought she was living a glamorous life.
There were also praises about how beautiful and sweet she looked.
As for the scandal about her leaking test questions to foreigners during a talent show and getting kicked out of the show before finishing, it seemed to have been thoroughly wiped clean.
From the moment Starlight announced her debut and the luxury brand endorsement until now, in just one hour, Lu Siyu’s Weibo had already gained tens of thousands of new followers, and she had earned the title of “Starlight Little Princess.”
Lu Miao then searched for “Lu Family” on the web. The first result that popped up was about the Lu family teaming up with the Galaxy Group to enter a new field.
The Lu family had indeed completely exploited CEO Zhang.
One had to admit that when it came to seeking benefits by any means, Lu Siyu and her parents were a perfect match!
Qin Yue returned to Zhonghai No.3 High School after distributing the gifts.
Starlight Culture’s main office was in Beijing, and next, Lu Siyu would go there to undergo training by the company’s system and participate in several events.
After Qin Yue picked her up, the group rushed to the airport.
In the car, Qin Yue looked at Lu Siyu and asked,” Why did the students have a strange reaction when I was giving out gifts at Zhenhai High School? Especially in Year 3 Class 1. Not only were they unhappy when they received the gifts, but they even looked very unhappy? When you were at Zhenhai High School, did you have any conflicts with them?”
When Lu Siyu signed the contract, he had also asked about transferring schools. At that time, she only said that Zhenhai High School did not allow students to enter the entertainment industry, so she had no choice but to transfer to No. 3 High School.
“No, it’s just that the other daughter of the Lu family is in that class, but my parents don’t like her, so she has always hated me. She probably said some bad things about me in class..”
