How can I justify myself as a Magnate if I don't indulge myself?-Chapter 330 - 158: Going Viral Online_2
But for part-time EMBA and MBA students like Gu Heng, this was not the case...
After all, they’d paid a hefty sum to be here, and they were individuals of status—the school understood that limiting these people to only riding shared bikes and electric scooters within the campus was a bit much, so some insignificant privileges were granted...
The Koenigsegg Gemera was a hybrid car; the sound of its supercar engine was computer-generated, which could be turned on or off at will. Gu Heng had once sneered at this feature, thinking, what’s the difference between this and a fake supercar?
But unspoken, this feature proved quite handy in the current situation...
At the very least, he wasn’t drawing an obscene amount of attention by roaring down the road in a Bugatti Divo like last time...
However, as a supercar with a price tag of 20 million, it still had the presence it was supposed to have...
When the creamy white, cool-looking supercar parked at the temporary parking spot outside the Guanghua School of Management, Peking University cafeteria, it instantly attracted a slew of gazes...
The Guanghua cafeteria was one that Gu Heng found on the internet to be one of the most famous among the twelve cafeterias at Peking University, with many students from other departments willing to travel the extra distance just for a meal here...
So it was normal that there were a lot of people.
Gu Heng had also taken up the sudden whim to taste the flavor of Peking University’s cafeteria...
As Gu Heng stepped out of the car, the lingering stares only increased, but he seemed to have grown accustomed to this level of attention and was unaffected as he walked toward the cafeteria...
However, as he moved deeper inside, Gu Heng felt something was off...
On the outside, due to his supercar, attracting attention was nothing out of the ordinary.
But now that he was inside the cafeteria, these students sitting and eating shouldn’t have x-ray vision to see through walls to tell which car he had driven, right?
Moreover, this attention was not just the curious kind—some of the more outgoing students even started discussing in low voices with their dining companions...
During the short one-minute walk, Gu Heng must have encountered over a dozen odd looks meeting his gaze...
If he hadn’t checked and found nothing unusual on his person, Gu Heng would have wondered if he had worn the wrong clothes, maybe accidentally donned Kim Jisoo’s risqué lingerie...

Suddenly...
Just as Gu Heng was about to queue at the food counter to buy a meal, a familiar figure walked past him.
Gu Heng couldn’t help but speak up, "Jiang Ruxue?"
Hearing her name called, Jiang Ruxue turned around and saw Gu Heng standing behind her, surprise flashing in her eyes as she said, "Mr. Gu?"
Today, Jiang Ruxue was dressed in a beige casual outfit, her long hair tied up in a high ponytail; without the constraints of professional attire, her ample bust seemed less prominent...
But in terms of Jiang Ruxue’s beauty...
Even if she were dressed in rags, it couldn’t hide her charm...
The casual outfit made her appear less like a mature working woman but rather brimming with youthful vitality.
After confirming he hadn’t mistaken her for someone else, Gu Heng smiled and said, "Outside the company, there’s no need to call me Mr. Gu; just my name will do."
Jiang Ruxue’s lips moved, but she couldn’t bring herself to call out "Gu Heng"...
Although Gu Heng rarely appeared in the office, the assertive image he had established during that one meeting had firmly rooted itself in Jiang Ruxue’s mind. If it were before, she wouldn’t have minded him asking to be called by his name, but now she truly couldn’t say it...
Seeing her hesitation, Gu Heng could roughly guess what she was thinking and changed the subject, "What brings you here? Isn’t the company busy?"
Jiang Ruxue shook her head, reminding him, "Mr. Gu, today is the weekend... the company is closed..."
Gu Heng paused at that, then let out an embarrassed chuckle, "Is it the weekend today? I forgot, haha..."
Although inwardly Jiang Ruxue was somewhat speechless, her expression didn’t betray her feelings...
Only wage workers care about what day of the week it is...
For a boss like Gu Heng, every day was like the weekend...
The two exchanged awkward glances for a few seconds before Jiang Ruxue cautiously asked, "Mr. Gu, what brings you to the cafeteria?"
Although Jiang Ruxue wasn’t very sociable, it didn’t mean she lacked emotional intelligence...
If Gu Heng were just a regular classmate and the situation became a bit awkward, it wouldn’t matter, but now that he was her boss, even if she was reluctant, she had to say something to ease the atmosphere...
"I came here for classes today and decided to have a meal at Peking University’s cafeteria, to see what your cafeteria tastes like.
But I don’t have a meal card, and I don’t know if other payment methods are accepted here."
Jiang Ruxue heard what Gu Heng said and shook her head, "Some cafeterias accept other payment methods, but Guanghua’s cafeteria doesn’t.
I was about to have a meal anyway; if you don’t mind, Mr. Gu, I can get one for you?"
"That would be great; if it’s convenient, please get me one, and I’ll transfer you the money later."
Lucky he had bumped into Jiang Ruxue at the cafeteria...
Otherwise, he would have been utterly crestfallen after queuing up and discovering he couldn’t buy a meal...
Jiang Ruxue shook her head, saying, "Peking University’s cafeteria is cheap; it won’t cost much, I’ll treat you. You just find a place to sit here, and I’ll be right back."
Without waiting for Gu Heng’s response, she turned and headed straight for the meal window...
Gu Heng, meanwhile, found a nearby spot to sit down...
As Gu Heng sat down, the whispers around him became more frequent...
Even though he didn’t catch exactly what they were saying, he could clearly sense that people were talking about him...
