Chapter 25
At this mont, the President of Academic Affairs and several heavyweight leaders were talking on the stage. Everyone was silent, and so was Anhao. The only difference was that she did not clearly listen to whatever they were saying.
Everyone started applauding, which caused her to raise her head in ti to see Yi Zeyang appearing on the stage.
He turned up in a well-cut suit just to give the students a lecture. Therefore, his style was quite low-key yet charming at the sa ti, while the gentleness and friendliness of his subtle smile on his handso face was still there even after five years.
This was definitely the man who once enlightened Anhao in her life’s journey.
There were thousands of students in A High School who already completely filled the lecture hall. And as usual, Anhao was sitting at the left of the back row to avoid being seen.
Besides, her once long hair had been cut short, and she had changed from the princess he was proud of into the gangster she was now. So, he probably could not recognize her even if he saw her.
“Yi Zeyang was a gifted student who studied Business Finance in MIT at Boston, USA. Six months ago, he ca back to inherit his family’s business. And now, he’s the general manager of YiShi Group, and the chief director of the company’s financial investnt and analysis firm. Let’s give Mr. Yang a big round of applause…”
As the applause continued to echo, Anhao’s ears were buzzing and unable to hear a thing.
The Yi Zeyang she once knew was a competitive high-score student, and his very existence was like a legend, being spread throughout various dostic high schools and universities. But now, he returned to China after furthering his studies in the United States for several years, and he was even more charming and calr than ever.
“Hi students. My na is Yi Zeyang, and A High School invited today…”
He was sowhat carefree when giving his welcoming introduction, but nurous girls on the scene looked at the guest professor with twinkling, sparkling eyes, like all of them were cheering for a handso guy.
Anhao scratched her head and then looked down at her blank notebook. She could neither listen a single word nor jot down what she heard from him.
’These idiots only knew that he’s handso and charming. Who would’ve thought that he was already engaged a month ago.’
In addition, his fiancee was the granddaughter of a general in so army, and could be counted as his equal and quite influential as well. Even the countless girls sitting here were not on par with her.
So, for Anhao, no matter how good he was now, he was just a dream she had five years ago.
Ever since she started joining the Gu family after leaving the Yi family, she and such a successful man like him were literally two worlds apart. He looked tidy and promising; as for her right now, she had already fallen into an abyss.
“Anhao! He’s so freaking handso!” Chunchun whispered beside Anhao while excitedly poking her arm non-stop: “His voice sounds beautiful too!”
’Of course he’s handso! When did I have a bad taste for boys? He’s the Prince Charming who I had a crush on when I was little!’
Anhao took a glance at Chunchun sideways: “Will you stop poking ?! It hurts!”
Chunchun’s excitent wiped out at once and saw Anhao facepalming, not looking at the man on the stage at all. She then whispered in utter shock, “Anhao, I thought you liked watching handso guys the most. What’s with you today?”
Anhao’s mouth twitched: “So what? I’m getting my period, so I’m not in the mood to see, alright? So stop poking my arm, it hurts.”
Seeing Anhao being a bit cranky, Chunchun rolled her eyes at her, “You jerk off after getting your period? And you don’t wanna see so handso guy? Well then, your loss!”
Huang Amao on the other side winked at Chunchun, signalling her to stop touching Anhao again: ‘Sothing must be bothering Anhao, better not make things worse.’
Chunchun saw Amao’s line of sight and kept herself shut again. However, she still couldn’t help but push Anhao’s arm: “He’s truly goddamn handso…”
The man’s voice in her ears was llow. Anhao was angry not because of Chunchun, but because she could barely take this atmosphere anymore as her mind was filled with the past. With Chunchun poking Anhao again, she was like she reached her breaking point in a split second, irritably about to cover her head with her school uniform and take a nap.
Noticing that Anhao unexpectedly got impatient with her, Chunchun’s little heart suddenly broke: “Gu Anhao, what the hell are you doing?!”
In a panic, Chunchun forgot to control her volu. At a mont’s notice, everyone in the silent lecture hall heard her voice. Then, they turned around to look at the ridiculous Chunchun, Anhao and Amao with strange expressions.
’Gu Anhao…’
The man who was speaking on the stage also stopped his voice in an instant. Upon hearing those three words, he gently folded the speech draft in his hand, raised his head and turned toward the direction of the voice.
Knowing that she herself was screwed the mont Chunchun suddenly called her na out loud, Anhao panickly raised her head and looked around the hall. Witnessing the strange looks on the other students, she at last set her sights on the stage in a great flurry.
The mont both her and Yi Zeyang’s eyes stared at each other, Anhao almost wanted to directly find sowhere to hide.
Under the table, she instantly pinched Chunchun’s hip, whispering while gnashing her teeth, “Damn it, Chunchun! Now you’ve done it!”
Chunchun was baffled. But because sothing was seemingly off with Anhao, and now this, she was really panicked until she could not control her voice.
At this mont, everyone witnessed that Yi Zeyang, standing on the stage, put down the speech draft in his hand and then silently looked at Gu Anhao.
His originally carefree face suddenly gave out a subtle, gentle smile.
Anhao hastily facepald.
“My God, he’s so charming when he smiles! Look!” Chunchun whispered while dragging Anhao’s sleeve non-stop.
Anhao had never seen Chunchun this girlish before. She then instantly roared back and glared at her: “Stop being so love-struck!”
Chunchun stared at her without rhy or reason. At the sa ti, she pointed her finger to the stage: “But Professor Yi’s looking at you!”
Anhao had no choice but to put down her hand after stroking her forehead, and then lifted her head to see Yi Zeyang’s eyes again. The mont she looked at him, she was like she already saw herself in him. As his eyes displayed a warm look which made her feel familiar, she grinned with a stiff smile.
“Gu Anhao! Su Chunchun! Huang Mao! It’s you three again!” From beside them ca the voice of the President of Academic Affairs.
They turned around, only to see the President of Academic Affairs had already sneakily headed up the stairs and stood beside the trio, staring at them.
“Can’t you three not let worry? I don’t mind you joking around in school every day, but inviting Professor Yi to give a lecture to all you 3rd Graders is no easy task for us. So, would you do the principal a favour and try not embarrass yourselves? And don’t be playful whenever you like!”
After being taught such a lesson by the President of Academic Affairs, Anhao shot a glance at Chunchun and Huang Amao beside her. She witnessed that the two of them never gave a damn about him and ignored his stern expression at the sa ti.
