“Calm down. Calm down.”

“This kind of blind date is very common in our circle, and our parents’ generation seem to be very keen on it.”

“So, most of the time, we are forced to cooperatively act with them.”

“Marriage of convenience?” Liu Ling asked.

“I think there are such considerations.”

“Puh, I’ve only heard about it before, but I didn’t expect it to be true. Is it fun?” Liu Ling couldn’t control her laughter and asked curiously.

“As if it’s fun. We are just forced to work, ok?” Tang Xiao said with a dreadful expression.

Thinking of today’s “surprise blind date” arranged by Mother Su, Su Rui also had a dreadful expression.

“Why, Su Xiao Rui, didnt you quite agree with blind date?” When Tang Xiao saw the expression on Su Rui’s face she raised her eyebrows and asked.

“You don’t understand.” Su Rui sighed.

It’s fine if it’s a blind date, but not a sudden attack ah.

At least let her put on a concealer, draw a delicate eye makeup, and change into better looking clothes.

Today, she thought that she would have to worry about finding the dormitory and teaching building when she came to school. So, for convenience, Su Rui wore casual sportswear and her makeup was just drawing her eyebrows.

It’s not exquisite at all.

“Is it that bad?” Liu Ling looked at Su Rui and Tang Xiao.

“Of course, especially those whose blind date has failed or did something stupid during the blind date. When they meet again at any banquet or opening ceremony, they will be embarrassed till their grandma’s house.^[1]”

Su Rui: I’ve experienced it before, but she doesn’t want to say it.

“Oh, come on, you are from a small household. You won’t understand our troubles.” Tang Xiao smiled and looked at Liu Ling pretending to sigh.

“Go away.” Liu Ling glared at Tang Xiao. She suddenly leaned over to Su Rui.

“Su Rui!”

“What?”

“According to what has been said, wouldn’t you feel embarrassed when you meet Gu Yu Cheng?” Liu Ling asked.

“Puh, don’t worry. They won’t meet.” Tang Xiao burst out laughing in the corner and glanced at Liu Ling. She continued, “You think anyone can meet Gu Yu Cheng ah.”

Although Gu Yu Cheng can hardly be regarded as people of the same generations just like them, he was different compared to herself and the others who are still leeching off from their family, Chairman Gu was busy every day.

It was said that even the interview appointment was scheduled until next year.

What’s the status of Gu Yu Cheng? Generally, the chances of “idle people” to meet Gu Yu Cheng may be smaller than a chance encounter.

Let alone, Gu Yu Cheng would not show up at any opening ceremony or banquets except for his important events and annual meeting.

So Tang Xiao was a little envious of Su Rui.

Why didn’t their family arrange for her to meet such a super high profile person? In this way, she wouldn’t need to worry about being embarrassed when they meet again.

Su Rui thought it made sense when she heard Tang Xiao’s analysis.

When she looked at the direction of the rostrum from far again, Su Rui sighed slightly.

Every girl has dreamed about their future partner as an elegant and classy person.

However, it’s just a fantasy, and not reality.

Moreover, she will not meet Gu Yu Cheng again if nothing unexpected happens.

Su Rui nodded in deep thoughts when she thought about this.

It’s just that Su Rui didn’t expect that she would slap her face very soon.

Gu Yu Cheng, the best alumni, was the last one to speak on the stage.

The opening ceremony was over not long after Gu Yu Cheng finished his speech.

After the ceremony, Tang Xiao, the lost child in class 3 of the music faculty, was finally called back to the class meeting by her temporary class monitor.

As for Liu Ling, she ran to get a close-up look at the graceful appearance of her male gods^[2], and to be closer to the bigshots.

Initially, Liu Ling wanted to pull Su Rui along with her. But when she saw Su Rui’s expression of rejection, she thought of Tang Xiao’s “embarrassment theory after a blind date”. She finally decided to go alone.

So, on the first day of school, Su Rui who was expected to rely on her roommate in school happily became alone.

Between the choices of taking a book from the library to feel the thick culture of University B and going back to the dormitory to live a decadent and comfortable life with potato chips, Su Rui decisively chose the latter.

On the way back to the dormitory, Su Rui took a bag of calories to the supermarket and walked slowly by the artificial lake of the school.

“Su Rui.”

She didn’t know where but a voice came from behind that called Su Rui.

When Su Rui heard this voice, her scalp immediately went numb.

It’s not because she has a deep impression with this voice, but the voice of the person was originally recognisable enough.

Of course, she has been listening to this voice for about 10 minutes in the stadium.

Su Rui stopped, and while she was still facing her back towards him, her whole face was scrunched up and full of embarrassment.

By the time Su Rui turned around and looked back, her expression returned to a proper but distant smile on her face.

“Chairman Gu?”, Su Rui tried to maintain the calm expression on her face when she looked at Gu Yu Cheng. She nodded to Gu Yu Cheng and said, “Long time no see.”

In fact, it didn’t seem long, just a week or two.

However, it’s just a greeting, so it’s enough as long as the meaning was there.

Just that Su Rui was surprised to see Gu Yu Cheng.

Shouldn’t the man who was talking in the stadium just now be returning to the company? What was he doing here?

Also, it seems that Gu Yu Cheng hurriedly walked here?

To look for her?
