Chapter 1371: Chapter 1371: She Actually Likes Him
As she watched, Xia Chuqing changed her position and simply put away her notebook and pen, focusing solely on the man on stage.
The girls around whispered non-stop, “Hey, isn’t it said that the president of Shen Group is very young? Is this the president?”
“Have you even been paying attention? This isn’t the president, it’s the vice president.”
“Ah, could it be that Shen Group chooses their talents based on looks? I’ve heard the president is really handso.”
“Exactly, didn’t our recently issued Fortune magazine feature the president of Shen Group? He’s so handso.”
“Does this vice president have a wife yet?” a girl asked, “I heard the president is married.”
“I don’t know, isn’t there a Q&A session later? Just ask and we’ll find out.”
“Isn’t it a bit inappropriate to ask that kind of question?”
“What’s inappropriate about it? During the open question session, you can ask anything!”
“But do you think this vice president will answer truthfully? So young and successful n say they’re single when they have a wife and child at ho, tricking young girls.”
“Ah, but he’s so handso, I’d willingly be fooled once.”
Xia Chuqing held her forehead, is this really okay…
As she listened, she suddenly rembered what Xu Chaomu had told her—that it’s okay for girls to take the initiative sotis, as n who have been competing in the business world for a long ti tend to be a bit repressed.
Xu Chaomu even used Shen Chi as an example, saying that if she had never taken the initiative, Shen Chi might never have revealed his true feelings in his entire life.
Similarly, she said Xiao Mo was the sa, although Xiao Mo wasn’t as aloof as Shen Chi, he wouldn’t be very enthusiastic either.
At that thought, so considerations she had pondered over for a long ti erged in Xia Chuqing’s mind… such as her actually liking him…
But, how should she tell him that…
If he were a boy around her age, they could laugh it off while speaking out, but Xiao Mo was different, he was mature… Would he think she is particularly childish? Or, does he not have any special thoughts about her at all?
For the first ti, Xia Chuqing realized how tangled and hesitant she was, turns out everyone becos a fool in front of love…
The girls below were still chattering, soone poked Xia Chuqing’s arm: “Hey, Chuqing, why aren’t you saying anything?”
“Ah.” Xia Chuqing ca back to her senses, “I’m listening to the lecture.”
“Really? Then why aren’t you taking notes? I wanted to copy from you.”
“Shush, concentrate on listening, I’ll morize it and review it later,” said Xia Chuqing.
“I didn’t see that coming, Chuqing, you’re so serious, we are all busy looking at the handso guy. Who knows when we’ll get a second chance to see him,” said a girl, “n who have been imrsed in society for years just seem different from college boys, they are especially profound and charismatic, tsk tsk.”
Xia Chuqing glanced at her, she didn’t seem to like the feeling of others discussing the person she liked…
When she turned her head back, she felt two sharp and deep gazes looking in her direction from the stage.
She thought it was an illusion, but upon closer inspection, she realized Xiao Mo was seriously discussing a case!
Xiao Mo spoke very fluently; she even wondered if he often gave similar lectures.
If that were the case, probably many young girls sward around him… He must be accustod to soone like her…
Xu Chaomu had told her that there were many beautiful girls at Shen Group… That is to say, probably in Shen Group, there were many beauties around him, after all, he was at the level of a highly eligible bachelor.
Xia Chuqing felt very conflicted inside, and her thoughts were in total disarray, oblivious to what Xiao Mo was talking about.
Just at that mont, a deep and pleasant voice ca from the stage: “What I just discussed is a classic case from our group’s acquisition projects, and I would like to invite a student to analyze so of the fundantal financial principles involved.”
The audience erupted into an uproar; the question wasn’t difficult, provided that you were listening.
As expected, a bunch of people started chattering: “What case were we just discussing? I was too focused on that handso face.”
“I don’t know.”
“ neither.”
Chuqing Xia was still lost in her own world; she hadn’t even heard the question.
Little did she know, Xiao Mo glanced over the entire room and, without bias, picked on Chuqing Xia’s seat: “Then, let’s have the student in the third row, fifth seat, speak.”
Later on, Chuqing Xia thought that Xiao Mo must have done it on purpose.
Xiao Mo slightly hooked his lip, his smile brimming with boundless affinity.
Soone nudged Chuqing Xia’s arm: “Chuqing, you’re being called, asked to answer the question.”
“Ah!” Chuqing Xia was stunned, “What question?”
Just then, soone handed her the microphone. Chuqing Xia’s voice echoed through it, drawing laughter from the entire room.
“This student is quite humorous,” Xiao Mo curled the corner of his lip.
Chuqing Xia stood up with the mic, at a loss, humorous my ass, you’re doing this on purpose, right?
“If you don’t know the answer, then sit down first and I’ll call another student to answer,” Xiao Mo looked at her.
Why did Chuqing Xia feel a hint of provocation in his eyes?
There wasn’t any beef between them anymore… They had both apologized to each other last ti in the United States.
The departnt head was almost at the point of covering his face. Usually, Chuqing Xia was his prized student, always ready with the answers, any ti. What happened today?
Finally, Chuqing Xia stabilized her emotions and took a deep breath: “I didn’t hear your question clearly just now, could you repeat it, please?”
She didn’t just miss the question; she hadn’t even heard the case.
Xiao Mo gave her so face and repeated the question.
Chuqing Xia figured, common knowledge in finance is nothing more than those few points; she might as well recite them all to Xiao Mo.
In the entire lecture hall, only the two of them were standing, eyes locked. Despite the distance, it reminded Chuqing Xia of that ti in the United States.
And not so long ago, when she cornered him at the staircase in Jin City, and when she spilled coffee on his pants at the airport…
Gradually, she didn’t even know what she was talking about anymore, her eyes never leaving his face.
Xiao Mo didn’t make things too difficult for her. Even though she answered many parts incorrectly, and the departnt head could tell, Chuqing Xia was off her ga today.
Finally, after a grueling hour and a half lecture, it was ti for the Q&A session.
This part was much livelier; students from the audience eagerly raised their hands!
“May I ask, Mr. Xiao, can we ask any question?” a girl stood up, grinning.
“Go ahead.”
“How old are you this year, are you married? If not, do you have a girlfriend?”
An imdiate commotion broke out in the audience, the departnt head wiping sweat from his brow—these rascally kids.
Everyone was looking eagerly towards the stage, waiting to hear Xiao Mo’s response.
