    Muyun Hotel.


    The Challenge Cuppetition was being held in the lecture hall. By nine in the morning, the hall was already packed. All the participating teams were nervously preparing, and the judges and guests were already in ce.


    An additional guest seat was set up on the second floor of the lecture hall. This was a VIP lounge with an excellent view, allowing one to take in the entire scene of the lecture hall.


    Yun Shenhan, as the person in charge, was also in this lounge, silently watching a man who had suddenlye over as a guest.


    “What exactly are you looking at? It’s just a university studentpetition. What’s so interesting?” Yun Shenhan couldn’t help butin.


    He Jingyao was observing the scene in the lecture hall with great interest. Hearing this, he curled his lips, “It seems that as the person in charge, you’re really not very invested in thispetition.”


    Yun Shenhan was baffled, “Being in charge is just a title. Do I really need to personally organize apetition of this level?”


    “You should at least have a list of participants, right?” He Jingyao said, his eyes still on the lecture hall below.


    Yun Shenhan vaguely sensed something and immediately called his assistant. Before long, a list was delivered to him.


    He almost instantly saw that name.


    Su Zixi.


    So it was her. Only this woman could make the workaholic He Jingyao drop everything toe here.


    Yun Shenhan sneered inwardly, suppressing hisplex emotions, he joked, “What’s the matter? Don’t tell me you still haven’t gotten her?”


    He Jingyao curled his lips, “What do you know?”


    Yun Shenhan’s eye twitched, he held back the urge to retort.


    He Jingyao couldn’t be bothered with Yun Shenhan’s attitude. He had already found the Yanzhou University team, but he did not see Su Zixi’s figure.


    Where had this woman gone?


    She had put so much effort into thispetition. If there hadn’t been an ident, she would never miss it.


    Could something have happened?


    He Jingyao’s brows furrowed. He took out his phone and dialed Su Zixi’s number. He had never exchanged numbers with her, but getting her number was no difficult task for him.


    The phone rang for a long time with no answer.


    He Jingyao’s face gradually darkened. When the first team finished their report and Su Zixi still hadn’t appeared, he abruptly stood up.

    On the other side, Ning Yichen finally agreed to let Su Zixi take him to the hospital.


    The car merged into the traffic. Su Zixi was seriously driving when the phone in her pocket started vibrating wildly.


    It was now nine in the morning, thepetition had already started. It was probably Shen Yushan urging her?


    Thinking about how long she had prepared for thispetition and yet couldn’t attend, Su Zixi still felt a bit distressed. However, she would not waver because of this.


    Ning Yichen also heard the vibrating phone. He nced at Su Zixi, but only saw her still calm and determined profile.


    This version of Su Zixi made it hard for him to connect her with the scheming, narrow-minded woman he remembered.

    Ten minutester, the car finally arrived at Siming Hospital. Several medical staff were waiting there. As soon as Su Zixi stopped the car, they quickly swarmed around, opened the passenger door, and helped Ning Yichen out of the car.


    Su Zixi also got out, ready to follow. But Ning Yichen turned back and looked at her, “If you go back now, you might still make it in time for thepetition.”


    “No need,” she gently shook her head, “Unless I’m sure you’re okay, I won’t leave.”


    Ning Yichen’s expression cooled, “Su Zixi, there’s no need for you to act all concerned in front of me.”
