After the lecture ended, everyone dispersed. There were originally some people who looked at Xuan Sheng with a smile and wanted to use this opportunity to get to know him. But who would have thought that when they really wanted to talk to him, Xuan Sheng would reject them from a thousand miles away?
Most of the people who attended the lecture were people of status and reputation. Seeing that Xuan Sheng had no intention of communicating with the crowd, they did not force him. Soon, most of the people in the hall had left.
Xia Wanyuan sat on the chair and waited for Li Nian to come and find her. Seeing that Xia Wanyuan did not leave, Xuan Sheng stayed behind.
Xuan Sheng was different from his initial enthusiasm. At this moment, he no longer insisted on speaking to Xia Wanyuan. Instead, he sat on a chair and supported himself with his right hand. He unconsciously rubbed his ear studs. His eyes were turbulent and his emotions could not be seen.
“I’ve seen your shows, Miss Xia.”
Xia Wanyuan was reading the textbook sent by the lecturer when Xuan Sheng spoke again. His tone was less frivolous now.
“My acting skills are so bad, but you can still watch on?”
Xia Wanyuan herself was too lazy to watch the television dramas that the original owner of the body filmed. It was hard for this person to think that the television series she acted in was good.
“Miss Xia, you are too humble. I admire you very much. This is my name card. I hope that I will have the chance to cooperate with you in the future.” Xuan Sheng handed a black name card to Xia Wanyuan. There was a warm smile in his peach blossom eyes.
“Why aren’t you leaving yet?” A deep voice sounded above her head. Jun Shiling had unknowingly walked to Xia Wanyuan’s side.
“I don’t know where Elder Zhong is.” Xia Wanyuan looked up at Jun Shiling. The coldness in his voice was about to freeze.
“Young Master Jun, I’ve heard so much about you.”
Interrupted by Jun Shiling’s sudden appearance, Xuan Sheng retracted his extended name card. His eyes darted between Xia Wanyuan and Jun Shiling before he smiled and extended his hand to Jun Shiling.
Jun Shiling did not even spare a glance at Xuan Sheng. He only looked at Xia Wanyuan. “Let’s go.”
“Okay.” Xia Wanyuan was about to get up when the ribbon on her dress wrapped around the little hook on the armrest.
Xia Wanyuan turned her head to untie it, but since the little bend was behind her, she could only reach out awkwardly to pull the ribbon.
Xuan Sheng was about to help Xia Wanyuan, when Jun Shiling walked up to her and bent down to untie Xia Wanyuan’s ribbon.
As the hook was behind Xia Wanyuan, Jun Shiling stretched out his arm as if he was hugging her.
Being half-carried by Jun Shiling, the faint scent of sandalwood wafted over. Xia Wanyuan raised her head and bumped into Jun Shiling’s firm chest.
Jun Shiling felt a hint of warmth in his arms. He lowered his head and met Xia Wanyuan’s eyes.
At that moment, the two of them were so close that Xia Wanyuan could feel the heat emanating from Jun Shiling. The noise in the hall was cut off, and it was as if only the area in Jun Shiling’s arms was quiet.
“It’s done.” Jun Shiling clenched his fists and took a step back.
Xia Wanyuan stood up and followed Jun Shiling out of the hall.
Xuan Sheng leaned lazily on the chair and watched Jun Shiling and Xia Wanyuan leave. A teasing look flashed across his eyes.
Jun Shiling had never publicly announced that he had a girlfriend. He did not expect Xia Wanyuan, an unreachable flower on a high mountain, to turn out to be Jun Shiling’s canary in the end.
Xuan Sheng’s interest in Xia Wanyuan immediately disappeared by more than half. However, he had to admit that he had raised this canary well. At least, he had never played with such a high-quality woman. He did not expect that Jun Shiling, who appeared to be restrained by abstinence outside, would actually play the game of hiding a mistress in a golden house.
Xuan Sheng stood up and stretched. He unbuttoned his shirt and strode out of the hall.
t was time for classes, not to mention that Elder Zhong’s dormitory was hidden. Xia Wanyuan and Jun Shiling were the only ones walking side by side on the forest path.
“Why didn’t you say you were coming over during lunch?”
The sun was shining brightly at that moment. Xia Wanyuan was in a good mood as she walked on the sunny path.
“The Jun Corporation has a project to collaborate with Qing University, so I decided to come here at the last minute.”
“Oh.”
Xia Wanyuan did not know much about the Jun Corporation’s business, so she did not probe further.
The tree branches by the road had just been trimmed. Xia Wanyuan picked up a soft willow branch from the bushes and folded it into a circle.
A gentle breeze blew past, and flowers fell onto the grass. Xia Wanyuan squatted by the roadside and picked up many flowers from the grass. Jun Shiling was originally striding forward, but when he saw Xia Wanyuan stop, he stopped and stood at the side, waiting for her.
Xia Wanyuan embedded all sorts of colorful flowers into the ring made of willow branches.
In just a few minutes, a beautiful garland was completed in Xia Wanyuan’s hands.
“Does it look good?” Xia Wanyuan put on the garland over her head. The sunlight seemed to cast a patch of diamonds in her eyes. The colorful flowers on the garland were all dazzling, but they could not compare to the person wearing the garland’s ring. It was exquisite and beautiful.
Jun Shiling looked deeply at Xia Wanyuan, his eyes dark. “Mm.”
“Let’s go.”
By the time the two of them arrived at Elder Zhong’s house, he had already waited for a while. Xia Wanyuan took off the garland and greeted him with a smile. “Elder Zhong.”
“Oh, you’re finally here, Xiao Xia. I have something to discuss with you.”
Elder Zhong led Jun Shiling and Xia Wanyuan to the sofa and sat down. He had the intention of recommending Xia Wanyuan to join the Arts Association of Qing University. The reason he had asked Xia Wanyuan to come today was to discuss with her about sending a painting to the Chinese Art competition that the university was holding.
Taking advantage of today’s lecture, he also spoke to Xia Wanyuan about this matter.
Xia Wanyuan did not expect that the four arts, which she had used to charm people in her previous life, would be so popular in the modern world. She naturally agreed to Elder Zhong’s suggestion.
At first, Elder Zhong had wanted to keep Xia Wanyuan and Jun Shiling for dinner, but as there were many important matters to attend to, there were some problems with the project under Elder Zhong. Elder Zhong chatted with Xia Wanyuan for a while before rushing to the office.
“Zhang Zhe, you brat, do you really treat us as coolies? Your girlfriend is so happy. Has she ever thought about how singles like us will feel?”
Su Mei stretched. Zhang Zhe’s girlfriend was moving out of the dormitory to live outside the school today. Everyone in their dormitory had been called over by Zhang Zhe to move things for his girlfriend. They had been busy all afternoon and were exhausted.
“There are so many beauties in Qing University. Haven’t you always wanted to visit them? I’m just fulfilling your wish.”
“Tsk, with a handsome brother like Xia Yu by our side, how would those ladies notice us?” Su Mei winked at Xia Yu, who snorted lightly.

“I can’t believe I can see the living Jun Shiling in my life. I have no regrets in life!”
“He’s amazing. Even a bad student like me can understand such profound theories.”
“I just want to say that he’s really handsome. There’s no one in the entertainment industry who’s as handsome as him.”
Xia Yu and the rest were about to leave the school when they heard the students discussing the lecture excitedly.
