Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Xu Wanwan hesitated for a moment before returning to the podium. Her voice was calm as she said, “I graduated from an ordinary village high school. My hobbies are painting and music. I hope that I can be friends with everyone in the future.”
After she finished speaking, she subconsciously glanced at the counselor.
“Okay, that’s enough,” the counselor nodded.
Only then did she let out a sigh of relief and walked down the podium.
After Xu Wanwan finished her introduction, the murmurs around her became more and more intense.
“It turns out that our top scorer in Science doesn’t come from a good family. She actually studied in the countryside.”
“So what if she’s from the countryside? She’s quite good at pretending. She even likes art and music.”
“I’m just wondering. Are the conditions now in the countryside so good? How does she have access to all that artistic stuff?”
“Who cares about her? She’s the top scorer in Science. If she wants to say so, she can say so.”
When Lin Jianan heard these words, she became upset and became indignant as she said, “How about you all mind your own business? We all have excellent grades, so why are you all so calculating?”
After she said that, she looked at Xu Wanwan. “Wanwan, those people are just jealous of you. Don’t be angry.”
“It’s okay.” Xu Wanwan did not take these things to heart at all. She said frankly, “They’re right. I really haven’t dabbled in art before.”
“What’s wrong with that? You can come and visit my house. There are many famous paintings and CDs at home. Let’s enjoy them together.”
Xu Wanwan smiled at her. “Thank you.”
“We’re already good friends. There’s no need to be so polite.”
During the lunch break, Xu Wanwan wanted to stay in the classroom for a while, but Fang Ya had gone straight to her classroom.
“Wanwan, my dad is asking you to go to his office. Do you have time right now?”
Xu Wanwan was a little surprised. “You mean Principal Fang is looking for me?”
“Yes! My Dad has something to say to you.” Fang Ya grabbed her arm and said gently, “If you don’t have time, I’ll help you decline now.”
“No need, I have time.”
Xu Wanwan agreed without hesitation.
The principal wanted to talk to her, which was already giving her a lot of face. If she continued to be coy, it would be too inappropriate.
Fang Ya immediately smiled. “Okay, then come with me now.”
Xu Wanwan nodded, then looked at Lin Jianan and said in a low voice, “Jianan, help me look after my seat. I’ll be back in a while.”
Lin Jianan made an OK sign. “No problem!”
While everyone was taking a break, Xu Wanwan walked out of the classroom with Fang Ya. They went around the school building and headed to the principal’s office.
There were a lot of people on the way. Not wanting to draw other people’s attention, Xu Wanwan walked up the stairs with her head lowered.
When she reached the corner of the fifth floor, a dazzling light suddenly flashed in front of her eyes.
Xu Wanwan stopped in her tracks and looked up in a daze.
A boy wearing a black short-sleeved shirt was standing in front of her. His hands were in his pockets, and his posture was casual and arrogant. His eyes were cold, and his face was gloomy.
The boy looked extremely good-looking, especially his eyes and eyebrows. They were very special.
Xu Wanwan looked stunned for a moment, feeling as if she had seen this boy somewhere before.
However, she could not remember where she had seen him before.
Li Xuyi looked coldly at the person in front of him. When he saw that she was in a trance, his thin lips curled into a sarcastic smile. “Why? Are you entranced?”
Xu Wanwan instantly came back to her senses and hurriedly tried to step back. But she missed a step on the staircase and her balance instantly became unstable. She frantically reached out to hold on to the stairs.
“Ha, don’t play with me.” Li Xuyi watched coldly from the side and snorted. “Get lost.”
In the past, he might have had the patience to play with her, but today, not only was his pocket money frozen, but he had also been reprimanded by his brother. Now that he had just come out of the principal’s office, he was in a very unhappy mood.
Xu Wanwan held onto the stairs to steady herself and watched the boy walk past her.
The moment they brushed shoulders, she felt a powerful aura emanating from his body.
It was an aura that was very similar to Li Jingran’s. Although it was not as strong as Li Jingran’s, it was still much stronger than ordinary people’s.
Xu Wanwan’s eyes lit up.
She remembered that Li Jingran seemed to have a younger brother.
In this world, only the son of Fate could emit such strong aura. That meant that the boy just now was also a son of Fate.
Xu Wanwan reacted and was slightly excited. Just as she was about to call out to him, she saw that he had already walked down.
“Stop!”
Fang Ya immediately ran downstairs and stopped Li Xuyi. She said in a hurried tone, “This classmate, what you did just now was very impolite. I’m asking you to apologize to her, now.”
Li Xuyi frowned and was extremely impatient. “Another one?”
He could not understand how much charisma he had. It was only the first day of school and two girls were already on to him.
Fang Ya had grown up in a well-educated and reasonable environment and had never done such a thing. She was so angry that her face turned red. She gritted her teeth and slowly said, “Do you want to apologize?”
“She doesn’t use her eyes when she walks and almost bumped into me. Shouldn’t she apologize to me?” Li Xuyi’s attitude was very arrogant and did not have any intention of compromising.
Fang Ya frowned, unable to do anything to him.
Xu Wanwan didn’t expect her to argue on her behalf. She quickly pulled her away and whispered, “I’m fine. Let him go.”
“But he’s scolding people.” Fang Ya was having trouble letting go of her anger. “We can’t forgive this person easily.”
If it were anyone else, Xu Wanwan would have schooled him on how to behave properly. But this person was also the son of fate. It would be good for her to have a good relationship with him.
“Forget it, I’m fine. Don’t we still have to go to the principal’s office? If we’re late, Principal Fang will be anxious.”
Only then did Fang Ya remember what she had to do. She looked at Li Xuyi unhappily. “If you scold people again in the future, I won’t forgive you easily.”
Li Xuyi snorted disdainfully and turned around to go downstairs.
Xu Wanwan was worried that Fang Ya would find trouble with him again, so she quickly pulled her away. “Let’s go.”
As soon as they entered the principal’s office, Fang Ya pulled Principal Fang and asked, “Dad, who was that guy just now? He bumped into someone and yet, he didn’t apologize. He’s really rude.”
Principal Fang put down his teacup and looked at his daughter’s angry face. He said in a serious tone, “It’s my work time now. Let’s talk about private matters when we get home.”
Fang Ya lowered her eyes. “Alright.”
Principal Fang returned to the original topic and looked at Xu Wanwan with admiration. “Welcome to our A University. Have you gotten used to it already?”
Xu Wanwan nodded obediently. “Thank you, Principal. The school is very good, and the students are very friendly. I’ll get used to it.”
“Mm, since you’ve adapted well, then I’m relieved.”
After Principal Fang finished speaking, he took out a thick stack of envelopes from his drawer and handed them to Xu Wanwan.. “In view of your excellent results, the school administration has specially rewarded you.”
