Hands tucked inside pocket, the ever so familiar impatient tapping of the leather boot on the floor. The slim-fit ck tuxedo that he wore was highlighting his muscr back.
The man''s attention was focused on his phone while his other hand was near his head as his slender finger weaved through his golden ash-blonde hair.
"Mei!!" Li Shuang called out to her and Yu Mei stilled for a moment when she saw the man put down his phone.
Unknowingly, her heart raced in her chest as she watched him turn around.
His face lit up at the sight of her as if he was here for her.
Students and professors were walking through the corridor but for some reason, for a split second, she found herself ignoring everything around as her gaze remained fixated on him.
He seemed to have be more handsome since thest time she saw him but even from a distance she could see the traces of dark circles under his eyes, but it did not reduce his charm a bit.
His striking ash-blonde hair seemed to be in a mess as they rested above his eyebrows. He looked tired yet attractive.
What surprised her was nothing changed about the way his chestnut brown eyes gazed at her.
''''Mei, what are you thinking about?" Li Shuang snapped her fingers in front of her, breaking her trance.
''''What were you saying?" she tilted her head to the side.
"I''ve been calling you repeatedly but you weren''t responding," Li Shuang nonchntly said, "Anyways, you should go to the ss. It''s time for PTM."
"And where would you go?" Yu Mei asked.
"Well, I don''t have parents or any guardianing. I''ll go to the washroom first and then back to the dorm.''''
Even though she had a small apartment, but she mostly lived in dorms, rarely going back to the small apartment.
''''I''ll apany you to the washroom.''''
Li Shuang frowned, "But…"
''''Let''s go," She held her hand and dragged her away, not looking back at a certain husband.
"You''re acting weird,'''' Li Shuang said, without much of an expression on her face.
Just like Yu Mei had guessed, it was indeed Shen Lihua who wanted her future daughter-inw to graduate from the best university, following which Jun Zixuan fulfilled his mother''s wish. It was one year before their marriage.
At that time, he did not have any kind of ridiculous ns to marry her. Considering his mother''s health and the girl''s reputation that screamed ''trouble'', he simply put himself as her guardian since there were some months for her to turn 18.
As soon as the private jetnded in Beijing, he received a call from the Imperial university informing him about the PTM.
And after freshening up in his penthouse, he drove over to the university without dy.
But she was not in her ss and before he could go to look for her, Gu Min, his secretary called him to discuss some work-rted matters.
Jun Zixuan impatiently spoke, "Yes, finalize the third deal and send it to Ren Mansion…No need. I will get the cruc…"
"Mei!!"
Someone called from behind and he froze for a split second. His brown eyes shed with an undecipherable light as he put his phone down and turned around.
His heart stopped beating for a moment when he looked at her.
Dressed in a short burgundy dress with her dark hair let down, with a face bare of any makeup, there she stood, amidst the crowd yet standing out from them.
Not seeing her for two months and she has changed so much but those dark starry eyes of hers were still the same.
She looked like Han Mei. True.
But this time, he was not doubtful about his feelings. He could not exin a few things that he felt but he knew that the person standing in front of him was not a recement to him.
He was very sure about it.
She looked at him for the briefest moment before looking at her friend.
Just as he took a step towards her, she turned around and…left.
She simply left without looking back at him.
The man sulked.
''Was she ignoring me?'' A thought popped up in his mind which was quickly denied by the following thought. ''No, she was just apanying her friend.''
He convinced himself and walked inside the ssroom, knowing that she will eventuallye back here.
When Li Shuang went back to the dorm, Yu Mei also walked towards the ssroom.
''''Prof. May Ie in?" She asked standing at the entrance.
Professor Zhang checked the time on her wristwatch, "You''re 7 minuteste."
''''I apologize,'''' She blinked at the Professor, without paying attention to the chaos in the ssroom, "I don''t mind if you don''t let me inside the ss.''''
Just as she turned around to leave, Professor Zhang spoke up, "Quicklye in. Don''t bete again."
She turned around to look at her, "Prof, I really don''t mind punishment.''''
Professor Zhang adjusted her sses as she looked at her with narrowed eyes, "Are youing in or not?" Though she said that, her expression was screaming ''No is not an option so I won''t take it as an answer.''
Her heels produced soft ''click'' sounds as she entered the ssroom. Without looking at a certain expectant husband who was sitting on her seat, she walked ahead and removed her bag from her shoulder before sitting on an empty seat in the back.
Prof. Zhang adjusted her sses, "You are supposed to sit with your guardian.''''
The ss was in uproar immediately. All the students were sitting with their guardians and students like Li Shuang whose guardians did not attend the meeting were not present in the ss.
The only people who were sitting alone at different desks were Yu Mei Zhen and the mysterious man who reeked of wealth and handsomeness.
The girls had their gaze focused on Jun Zixuan from the moment he stepped inside the ss. From the man''s otherworldly charming appearance to his well-built figure which was highlighted in the expensive ck tuxedo he was sporting.
Sleeves slightly rolled up revealing the limited edition Patek''s Phillipe watch on his wrist as his slender fingers tapped the desk with a hint of impatience. While he casually sat there, doing nothing, his presence was making therge ssroom appear so small. His aura overwhelming them beyond words.
A man so perfect that they felt so drawn to him like moths near the fire.
