There was a sea of people on the sports field after school. Male and female students from Senior Grade One to Senior Grade Three surrounded the plastic rails around the track as they waited for the start of the battle between men.
The teachers quietly observed the situation from where they were standing on the teaching building, and would step in to maintain order when it became necessary. Some of the teachers sighed inwardly at Lotus Sunâs influence.
As expected of the eldest daughter of Huaguo Water Curtain Group⦠If the person the two boys were fighting over wasnât Lotus Sun, it would never have caught the attention of the whole school.
âIf only they were just as energetic during the after-school supplementary lessons.â A teacher clapped her hand to her forehead with a wry smile.
âBut why didnât the director and headmaster stop them?â
âThe headmaster said that with school just starting, itâs good for students to exchange pointers once in a while. Also, thereâs an exchange meet coming up between schools in our Peiyuan district and other districts.â
âAnother one? What is it this time? Sword techniques? Talismans? Or survive skills?â
âI heard it would be an exchange of body techniques. Xia Ming is in fact an excellent candidate. Each school will be sending a delegation of ten members, and Headmaster Chen has already settled on the name list. Itâs just that for the final spot, Headmaster Chen is stuck between choosing Xia Ming or Wang Ling.â
âWang Lingâs overall grades arenât as good as Xia Mingâs, right?â
âThatâs true, but in all the school exchange activities which Wang Ling participated in last semester, our school ended up winning.â When the teacher said that, the teachers around him instantly understood.
The strength of a mascot was no joke!
They almost forgot that this Student Wang Ling was a mascotâ¦
The duel was about to begin, but Lotus Sun was nowhere to be seen.
After confessing her love to Wang Ling in public, Lotus Sun was so ashamed, and she was escorted home by the bodyguards with a red face. However, some bodyguards who remained behind would broadcast the duel live so that she could watch it from home.
At that very moment, Lotus Sun stared at the image of the crowded sports field, a very complicated expression on her face. She had never imagined that she would one day confess her love to a boy in public, and even cause a fight for her affections.
Well, it wasnât her fault that she was pretty!
â¦
Elsewhere, in the massive chairmanâs office on the top floor of Huaguo Water Curtain Groupâs building headquarters, a vigorous-looking old man with gray, grizzled, slicked back hair and a pipe between his teeth was also paying attention to what was happening at the school.
Sun Yiyuan, chairman of Huaguo Water Curtain Group, already knew about his granddaughter confessing to a boy in public.
When he heard this, the old man had been very shocked and almost choked on his spit.
âWhat? Rongrong confessed to someone?â Sun Yiyuan felt that it was incredible. Since long ago, it had only ever been his own granddaughter who had been confessed to, and she turned them down politely â Old Man Sun never imagined that his granddaughter would take the initiative to confess to someone herself
âThatâs right; I heard that Eldest Young Miss confessed to a boy in a very loud voice, and even said that she wanted to be with him forever.â Standing on the side, his assistant, dressed in a white uniform, tactfully described what happened.
He thought that Old Man Sun would be angry. After all, it wasnât as if Eldest Young Miss had never been pestered by sons from some high-ranking families before. However, these people left her alone after receiving a large amount of money from the old man, half as a bribe and half as blackmail.
But the assistant was surprised by Old Man Sunâs unexpected attitude. Rather than get angry, the old man conversely seemed very pleased this time. âRongrong has never told any boy before that she wants to be with him. It seems she means it this time.â
âIs that what the chairman thinksâ¦â
âOtherwise?â Sun Yiyuan asked, âWho is the boy Rongrong confessed to?â
The assistant pulled up the live broadcast at No. 60 High and pointed to a handsome boy with dead fish eyes on the screen. âActually⦠Chairman, you may have heard of this boy: heâs the classmate whom Eldest Young Miss took to the Xiao Family Compound last semester, and they were attacked by Shadow Streamâ¦â
âOh, itâs him! But⦠Whatâs his name again?â
âIt seems heâs called Wangâ¦â The assistant patted his head. The words were clearly already on his lips, but he couldnât speak them for some reason.
Wang Lingâs Great Shielding Spell was still working to some extent at that moment. Only when a person saw Wang Lingâs true appearance would the effect of the shield be dispelled.
Of course, this true appearance referred to seeing Wang Ling in person, and not through a live video like this.
Even if a person saw Wang Lingâs face in the video, they still wouldnât be able to remember anything about him.
âItâs fine if you canât remember â investigate it later. The duel is more important right now.â Old Man Sun waved his hand indifferently, and his assistant breathed a sigh of relief.
The assistant used a magic artifact to directly project the live images into the air.
Both boys wore school uniforms, but from what Wang Ling could see through his trademark dead fish eyes, Old Man Sunâs gaze was firmly fixed on Wang Ling.
âHis looks are passable, but the dead fish eyes make him look a little listless.â Old Man Sun nodded thoughtfully. âIf itâs confirmed that this Student Wang is going to date Rongrong, ask him if heâs willing to get double eyelids and eyelift surgery â Iâll cover the costs and damages.â
ââ¦â The assistant was silent before saying, âBut the young miss said that she liked everything about Student Wangâ¦â
âOh⦠is it like that⦠so Rongrong likes this type? When they went to the Xiao Family Compound, I thought Rongrong just randomly brought along a boy to accompany her â I didnât think she would start to like him then.â
Old Man Sun sighed. âForget it. Since itâs what Rongrong likes, he can keep his eyelids. Howeverâ¦â
With that, Old Man Sun turned to stare at this assistant on the side. âWhy does Rongrong tell you everything???â
The assistant froze and looked a little terrified. âEldest⦠Eldest Young Miss initially asked me to keep it a secret, but⦠but this is too big a matter, and Iâm worried that it could have a bad impact, which is why I decided to tell you, chairman.â
âMm, itâs good that you didnât keep it from me, but you promised Rongrong you wouldnât tell me, and you didnât keep your word. The merit offsets the offense, so thereâs no reward or punishment â you shouldnât have any complaints, right?â
âNoâ¦â
In the assistantâs heart: MMP.
Old Man Sun continued to look at the screen. âHow old is this Student Wang? Compared with Rongrong?â
âHe shouldnât be smallâ¦â The assistant undid his pants for a look 1. âI donât know how big he is, but he should be bigger than me? Thereâs nothing to compare with Eldest Young Miss, since she doesnât have oneâ¦â
âShut up! I asked about his age!!! I want to know if heâs older or younger than Rongrong! I want the exact months and days!!â
ââ¦â
