Su Chen was minding his own business.
Even though he knew the gold digger Cathy as well as the aloof president Ichiko Mitshua wanted to strike up a conversation with him, he paid no heed.
His target had always been Ichiko Saori, the clumsy-looking yet virtuous Professor.
Su Chen had long guessed that after seeing him spending some quality time with Ji Rumeng yesterday, Mitshua would surely make a fuss with her elder sister Saori which would ultimately make Saori's already turbulent heart even more unsettled.
As the saying goes, the more conflicted a heart is, the easier it is to enter, Su Chen was following a similar approach.
Therefore, he thought of using a new form of approach today.
Today he performed the role of a good student instead of the usual lazy back-bencher who would always be asleep during classes.
As he immersed himself in his new role, classes passed one after another~
The afternoon sunlight passed through the pale window panes, and the air was filled with a scholarly smell of chalk and books.
Because he was absent for some days earlier, students were surprised to see his new change.
Everyone was like- Today he is really…..different?
Throughout the day, Su Chen's posture was straight, his dress perfectly ironed instead of his casual dresses. He was wearing even more formal clothes today as if he had arrived straight from a business party.
Even his previous standing hairs on the front using gel, were now neatly combed into something neat.
He didn't talk, nor did he interrupt or disturb anyone, heck…he didn't even check his phone even once under the desk like he used to.
Even the arts teacher, who had a somewhat little impression of him compared to others, asked in a baffled tone,
"Su Chen?"
"She said his name while calling attendance."
"You were absent, are you…..ahem, well now?"
The afternoon teacher was still at a loss for words against Su Chen's strong momentum.
Before Su Chen could explain, Cathy jumped up from her seat and explained for him,
"Teacher, as you know, our Su Chen opened a new company called Suring, just last night he concluded a million-dollar deal and came here directly without a late night sleep."
After speaking, Cathy looked towards Su Chen with coquettish eyes, the usual trick of a green tea bitch, attracting your attention by repeating what you have said before by glorifying it in her own way.
Everything she said was fine, but when she implied- 'our Su Chen', it was clear she wanted to tell others, she was closer to him, that's why she was the first to inform the teacher about Su Chen's recent behaviour.
Mitshua, who saw all this, clenched her wrists under the table, it was the first time for her to face such unnatural warfare.
As soon as Cathy finished speaking, the fierce-hot girl immediately won cheers from the crowd, some directly chanted- Ship! Ship!
Before sitting back at her seat, Cathy didn't forget to turn around and give Mitshua a triumphant smile.
If you look closer, Cathy's seat was in the middle at such an angle that it was clearly visible from Su Chen's desk, at the same time it was only two benches ahead of Mitshua, so if she spoke something a bit louder, it meant Mitshua could very well hear it, and Cathy meticulously used this opportunity.
"Hmm, millions in money, that means he is rich now."
"A perfect boy like him needs a capable girl like me to relieve his pent-up stress from work."
Even though Cathy had a shrewd personality, she was known for her perfect curves, intoxicating perfumes, and not to forget, the way she coquettishly talked after slightly leaning closer, slightly twisting her bangs with her index finger as if she was talking heart to heart to a close friend.
Cathy's friend who was sitting beside her snorted, "Your personality, you can never improve!"
But in response, Cathy only lightly chuckled.
Her gesture was enough to convey a strong message.
But Mitshua, who could see and hear her, was rattled like a snake.
The pen in her hand was twisted with such a brazen force, that it broke unceremoniously.
Mitshua wanted to perform like she wasn't listening, but her action easily exposed her.
Her eyes kept drifting between the blackboard and Su Chen, the presence of Cathy added a completely new thorn to this perspective.
Mitshua felt weird, all of this was so new to her, she was affected even if she didn't want to.
Slowly, she fell into recollection of old memories.
Just a few weeks ago, the same boy, under a lively crowd, confessed his feelings to her, it was a similar sunny afternoon.
She ruthlessly rejected him, saying we should focus on studies and career first.
But even Mitshua knew it was not the truth.
The real thing was the gap in status between them.
On one side was her status as the esteemed President of a well-known marketing company and on the other side was a little-known backbencher who barely managed to pass exams last time.
Therefore, inwardly, after rejecting Su Chen, Mitshua, after walking some considerable distance, laughed it off as a little episode, but how could she have guessed this little episode would keep plaguing him with every step Su Chen took to success.
Heck, she even used that Su Chen confessing incident as something to joke around with her office subordinates.
Moreover, a part of her thought she did a favour to Su Chen by ruthlessly rejecting him, this would open his eyes to look at how big the gap is between them…..that they were destined to belong to two different extremes of lifestyle.
By doing so, he would stop pestering her and instead focus on his studies so as to get some average job to fend off his average life.
And now?…..He doesn't even glance at her?
Mitshua's intestines started twisting strangely, this was painful for her.
