Chapter 19
After some time, Mr . Mu put down his doc.u.ment and moved his gaze to the new stack of papers with a contemptuous smile .
When he removed his gla.s.ses, the light that shone on his eyes seemed to reveal a cold, heartless gaze that could no longer be hidden .
But when one observed closely, he was just showing symptoms of being nearsighted .
In the middle of June, the sun was scorching hot throughout the capital . Just going outdoors caused people to feel out of breath .
Within this sweltering weather, Gu Jin walked out of her apartment with her shoulder bag and rushed to school .
When Tuesday afternoon came, there weren’t any cla.s.ses for the rest of the day so several students stood under the trees’ shades in twos and threes . Some would treat themselves to ice cream or cold herbal tea .
Meanwhile, within the Hanxing Literature Society, a group of students sat with their desks facing each other as they worked on their project .
The editors, who finalized the paper-based drafts, were responsible for browsing through emails of electronic ma.n.u.scripts and editing them .
On such a hot day, only a single ceiling fan in the room creaked .
“Sigh~ It is like entering a deep ocean after joining the Han Xing Literature Club . Holidays will forever slip through our fingers upon joining . ” The tanned youth responsible for editing the paper version of their ma.n.u.script reached out for a cup of water, only to find that the cup was empty . He removed his thick framed gla.s.ses and leaned against the table in displeasure .
“Scram! If you want to stay in the club, then continue doing so . But if you don’t want to be in the club, just resign,” replied the expressionless Tong Lin, who was president of the literary society .
“Ouch, you just hurt my poor heart . Hey President, are you going out with anyone?”
Yang Zhe put his hands over his chest and made a heart sign with his fingers .
“Ugh…” the other club members grumbled in disgust . They stopped their work and complained, “Yang Zhe, if he chooses a partner, he’ll surely look for someone with an attractive face . Do you think you have this trait?”
After hearing everyone’s mountain of criticisms, Yang Ze finally gave up .
After hearing everyone’s mountain of criticisms, Yang Ze finally gave up .
The room relaxed considerably after enjoying a bit of drama .
When Gu Jin stepped into the literary society’s club room, the members inside all turned their sights towards the door .
Yang Zhe squinted his all-searching eyes and whistled . He said with a handsome, deep voice, “Who are you looking for, s.e.xy lady?”
Just after he spoke, the student next to him smacked him at the back of his head and scolded, “Are you blind? That’s the vice president . ”
Because he was smacked without warning, Yang Zhe didn’t have time to collect himself .
He wanted to retort and say that the woman’s temperament was totally different, but he soon changed his mind once he saw her up close .
