Although Zheng Anyang had many questions in his mind, he refrained from asking, fearing he might touch upon sothing that would upset Ye Leng’an. Especially during such a joyous occasion, it seed unnecessary.
Ye Leng’an, seemingly unfazed, spoke slowly, “Our engagent ceremony is already in preparation. It will take place before the start of the university term. Principal, please co and attend our engagent ceremony!”
Seeing Ye Leng’an’s calm deanor, Zheng Anyang felt reassured. He smiled and responded, “Certainly! Make sure to send an invitation. I’d like to attend and see what kind of person is worthy of you!”
Upon hearing this, Ye Leng’an furrowed her brow and then looked at Zheng Anyang strangely. “Principal, didn’t you already encounter him before? Have you forgotten?”
Though they hadn’t exchanged greetings at the banquet, the principal must have heard about her and Huangfu Ruiling. Why did he now act as if he knew nothing?
Zheng Anyang paused for a mont, then cautiously asked, “So, your fiancé is Huangfu Ruiling, right?”
“Yes!” Ye Leng’an nodded matter-of-factly. “We’ve been dating for so ti now, and now we’re planning to get engaged. It’s a natural progression!”
They had already held an engagent ceremony in the Hidden World, and now another one was scheduled for the mortal world. While it seed a bit botherso, she was willing to accept it. The crucial point was that Huangfu Ruiling would take care of all the arrangents; she just needed to attend on ti.
After Ye Leng’an’s confirmation, Zheng Anyang took a deep breath, his eyes widening in surprise. Even though he had witnessed Ye Leng’an and Huangfu Ruiling together before, the news of their impending engagent still astonished him.
He held Ye Leng’an in high regard, believing she was destined for greatness. However, Huangfu Ruiling, as the head of the prominent Huangfu family, was at the forefront of the four major families in the capital. Ye Leng’an, on the other hand, was just an erroneously adopted daughter of a small Ye family, and their statuses seed entirely mismatched.
It was unexpected that these two individuals not only got together but were also planning to get engaged.
Observing Zheng Anyang’s reaction, Ye Leng’an couldn’t help but find it amusing. “Principal, shouldn’t this be too difficult to accept?”
“No, I was just a little surprised by this news.” Zheng Anyang quickly regained composure, smiling as he said, “Congratulations. I’ll be sure to arrive early.”
Regardless of his inner thoughts, on the surface, he appeared calm.
Ye Leng’an seed unperturbed and steered the conversation back to business. “Principal, didn’t you ask to co here for my graduation certificate?”
“Yes.” Apologetically, Zheng Anyang patted his head. “I was so delighted to see you suddenly that I almost forgot my duties.”
He rose, walked to a nearby filing cabinet, retrieved a book with a red cover, and handed it to Ye Leng’an across the desk.
Ye Leng’an took the graduation certificate and without inspecting it, stashed it into her bag. She then bid farewell. “Principal, I’ve taken the graduation certificate. If there’s nothing else, I’ll leave now.”
Observing her preparing to depart, Zheng Anyang sighed. “There’s no need to be in such a hurry. You just arrived. I still have sothing to discuss with you.”
Ye Leng’an, not rushing, resud her seat, calmly waiting for the principal to continue.
“You’re this year’s top scorer in the college entrance examination, and you achieved a perfect score.” Zheng Anyang adjusted his expression and stated, “Now, several television stations want to interview you. What are your thoughts?”
Traditionally, major television stations competed to interview the top scorer in the college entrance examination. Additionally, Ye Leng’an was the sole perfect scorer in the past decade, making her exceptionally noteworthy.
Ye Leng’an furrowed her brow, declaring, “I don’t plan to accept any interviews.”
She disliked drawing attention to herself, especially exposing herself to the spotlight.
“I’ll help you decline those interviews.” Zheng Anyang, unsurprised by Ye Leng’an’s response, continued, “However, the school will issue a press release about your situation. Is that acceptable to you?”
It was an excellent opportunity to promote the school, having produced a top scorer after many years. Zheng Anyang was keen not to miss this chance. However, if Ye Leng’an disagreed, he wouldn’t proceed.
Their relationship had always been amicable because Zheng Anyang never compelled Ye Leng’an to do anything she disliked in his capacity as the principal. He didn’t intend to jeopardize this rare teacher-student bond.
Undeniably, there was another crucial factor – Ye Leng’an was about to be engaged to Huangfu Ruiling. Zheng Anyang didn’t want to offend the Huangfu family backing Ye Leng’an.
“Principal, do as you see fit.” Ye Leng’an shrugged, indifferent. “I don’t mind these matters.”
As long as she didn’t have to be present, she was unconcerned. Moreover, the principal had been lenient with her throughout the year; it was ti to reciprocate.
With Ye Leng’an’s response, Zheng Anyang smiled, affirming, “Don’t worry. We won’t utter anything that tarnishes your reputation. The school simply wants to take advantage of this opportunity for publicity, especially with new enrollnts on the horizon.”
A top scorer in the college entrance examination was an excellent publicity hook.
Ye Leng’an showed no surprise, nodding to indicate her understanding.
Continuing, Zheng Anyang said, “There’s one more thing. I wonder if you have the ti to give a speech to this year’s graduating class. It would motivate them to strive for good results in the coming college entrance examination.”
At Zheng Anyang’s words, Ye Leng’an’s expression beca peculiar. She frowned, gazing at Zheng Anyang, and asked in a skeptical tone, “Principal, are you sure?”
