Chapter 27: Chapter 27 - The Heart Aches Again after Many Years_1
That seed to suggest that she had long forgotten their past, and that her recent display was all an act.
Which one should he believe?
Eleven’s expression changed, like a sudden shift from a smile, turning into a state of bewildernt.
"Oh, her? Her na is Fang Eleven; she’s the top student in this class, excelling in all areas. I thought her performance just now was very good; CEO Jin really has a great eye!"
"Let
introduce to everyone——"
"No need for introductions!" A girl in the back row stood up and said, "Jin Xiangbei, CEO of Jin Corporation!"
The girl continued, "My best friend Yao Ruoshui’s fiance!" She announced proudly.
"...Fiance, so they are already talking about marriage? No way...so of us still had hopes..."
Jin Xiangbei frowned.
The word ’fiance’ made him feel quite uncomfortable.
He glanced at Eleven, wanting to see her reaction.
No reaction?
After everyone understood why Jin Xiangbei was here, his praising of Eleven made them even more jealous, and the whispers of "why wasn’t I the one performing" started surfacing.
Jin Xiangbei walked to the center of the podium, looked at everyone, and said, "If I choose her just based on her performance, that wouldn’t be very fair to the rest."
"Yes, it’s unfair! We also can perform well! Give us a chance too!"
The fact that Jin Xiangbei was personally in charge of finding a fresh face for the new product’s advertisent surprised everyone, and they all praised him for his professionalism.
"So, one performance opportunity for everyone, sa the as before." His wandering gaze eventually fixed firmly on Eleven, making her feel slightly uncomfortable.
Throughout the session, Eleven couldn’t focus, didn’t want to watch anyone’s performance.
She had been avoiding Jin Xiangbei’s gaze.
"Fang Eleven, would you like to try again? Perhaps you could improve! I’m looking forward to your progress!" The instructor was very satisfied with Fang Eleven.
"No——"
"Great," Before Eleven finished, Jin Xiangbei unexpectedly stood up and walked down, "I saw your performance earlier. This ti, I’ll be your partner and experience it firsthand."
Eleven stood there speechless, looking at Jin Xiangbei with eyes full of confusion.
His proposal surprised everyone in the lecture hall. Why didn’t they receive the sa treatnt?!
Eleven didn’t respond. What exactly was he trying to do?
"Great! CEO Jin is responsible for selecting the ’main character’ this ti; this is an excellent suggestion, Fang Eleven. Aren’t you going to seize this opportunity? Opportunity knocks but once!"
Eleven slowly descended from the steps.
"Do we still need another perforr? Who’s going to act as the other one?"
Jin Xiangbei’s words received a resounding response. Without even looking, he picked the nearest girl with her hand raised. The girl excitedly sprinted over.
"Ah!" The girl exclaid as she was suddenly swept up into Jin Xiangbei’s arms, her happiness off the charts as the girls below expressed their jealousy.
Jin Xiangbei held that girl close but his sight remained on Eleven.
In that mont, all the mories suddenly flooded Eleven’s mind.
Jin Xiangbei, Yao Ruoshui...
Those mories were too real, and a flash before her eyes conjured the image of their naked bodies intertwined.
Her heart, after all these years, hurt again at that mont.
Eleven pressed her hand to her chest, clutching her clothes tightly, her eyes instantly watering. This ti, before the tears fell, she tried her best to hold back, but ultimately couldn’t resist the pain welling up from the depths of her heart. Amidst silent sobs, the tears slipped past her lashes and fell.
