As Wu Ji spoke, he thought of Bai Weiran's plan.
"How did your chat go? Did you enjoy it?"
He asked the big bear, but glanced at Bai Weiran instead.
Wu Ji's idea was that if his own brother couldn't get the answers he wanted, he would say a few words on his behalf.
Big Bear gets all excited when he talks about this.
"I have a surprise for you, Wu Ji. You'll be very happy."
"Prepare a surprise for me? What surprise?"
Wu Ji let out a strange cry, but before Da Xiong could answer, the lights in the hall suddenly went out, plunging the once noisy room into darkness.
Bai Weiran looked up, Wu Ji looked completely bewildered, Da Xiong chuckled twice, stood up and put his arm around Wu Ji's shoulder.
"It's the one you have a crush on..."
"I don't have a crush on anyone."
"Stop lying. You even called me back then to ask about Senior Mu. I knew then that you had a crush on Senior Mu."
Bai Weiran turned around in a second, and Wu Ji stared in astonishment, looking back in horror.
No, it wasn't me, I didn't do it, let me explain.
The unsuspecting bear chuckled.
"Old classmate, don't say I didn't take care of you, look!"
The spotlight immediately shone on the stage, and a figure slowly walked up and appeared before the audience, causing many people below to gasp and scream.
It's amazing that it still has such popularity after so many years. You can imagine how popular it was back then.
Unlike her disheveled appearance when she met Guoguo, Mu Nanfeng was dressed simply today in a cheap dress she had found at a department store. The dress was too big and didn't fit her well, and there was a sentence written in a fancy foreign language on the front.
The two female classmates at the next table screamed softly.
"Ahhh! It's Senior Mu!!"
"Senior Sister Mu, my Senior Sister Mu!!!"
"I asked Senior Mu if she was coming, and they said she wasn't. Why is she here now?"
This was also what Wu Ji wanted to ask. He stiffened and glared at the big bear beside him with accusatory eyes.
You said you weren't coming?
Big Bear grinned at him.
Good buddy, don't get too excited.
Wu Ji, filled with anger, shame, and resentment, used a pair of scissor-like hands to hold the bear hostage, as if he had taken a terrorist hostage in a hail of bullets, and let out a low growl at Bai Weiran.
"...Young Master Bai, run! I'm here!!"
The only option now is to mend the fence after the sheep are lost and atone for one's sins in order to escape the pursuit.
Bai Weiran glanced at Wu Ji but did not get up.
The female classmate next door was still discussing it.
What do the foreign characters on Senior Mu's clothes mean?
That's what fangirls are like; they want to know everything.
A Baidu search result: "I love handsome guys".
The two fell silent.
Big Bear finally managed to escape from Wu Ji's clutches, coughed twice, and looked back and forth between Wu Ji and Bai Weiran with a suspicious gaze, sensing that something was wrong.
Bai Weiran simply broke the silence with a smile.
"I haven't seen Senior Mu in a long time either. She seems to be doing well."
Their eyes met, and Wu Ji remained silent for a long while before pulling out a chair and sitting down next to Bai Weiran. They both looked at the stage and remained silent.
Big Bear watched the two figures disappear into the distance and scratched his head.
I feel like I've made a mistake, something's weird, but I can't quite put my finger on it.
Mu Nanfeng was there as the opening speaker.
Her hair was tied up, looking very neat, with a short ponytail at the back of her head. She didn't even wear lipstick, showing no signs of being charming or glamorous. However, when she spoke, it gave people a feeling of being bathed in a spring breeze.
He speaks at a moderate pace, with his own rhythm, leisurely and relaxed, without sounding formulaic at all.
Finally, she smiled slightly and raised an eyebrow at the stage.
"...Finally, let me do a little self-promotion. You guys don't mind, right?"
The people below immediately burst into laughter.
"The foundation I'm currently affiliated with donates funds to provide disability benefits for children injured in war zones, assisting them with post-injury rehabilitation and subsequent education. I'd like to give a small plug here; related information is available at the alumni association entrance, so please take a look if you have the chance."
The host coughed twice.
"Senior, it's forbidden to use public speaking time for personal advertising. This is your first warning. If it happens again, you'll be suspended for five minutes."
Mu Nanfeng playfully pouted, and the audience below immediately laughed again, not minding at all, and applauded.
Wu Ji clapped his hands while sighing.
Many years have passed, but Senior Mu's charm remains undiminished; in fact, she is even more captivating than before, exuding a serene and composed aura.
He glanced at his old friend and saw him clapping as well, so he nodded and smiled slightly.
Wu Ji thought, but he really couldn't figure out what he was thinking.
"I wasn't thinking about anything," Bai Weiran replied, almost as if possessed.
"I just felt really happy to see her."
I didn't want to see him until I met him, and even after meeting him, I felt he was nothing special.
He felt very calm.
Bai Weiran was turning to talk to Wu Ji when Mu Nanfeng on the stage glanced in their direction as he stepped off the stage.
Chapter Sixty-Three: Xia Yanle Arrives
In the taxi, Nana happily sang while kicking her legs.
"We're going to find Mr. William!"
"We're going to find Mr. William!!!"
Nana's cheeks were flushed with excitement, her eyes were shining, and after she finished singing, she leaned against the back of the front seat and chatted with the taxi driver.
"You know what? Driver, we're going to do something really exciting."
"Nana, I'm going to do something really exciting with Sister Yanle."
Her smile was innocent and adorable, and the driver, distracted while driving, responded with a smile.
Nana wanted to say something, but then she chuckled and covered her mouth with her hand.
"It's a secret, I'm not telling you, and I'm not telling you—"
"I have horns on my head, I have a tail behind me, and nobody knows how many secrets I have. I'm a little Nana, and I have many secrets, but I won't tell you—I won't tell you!"
Nana sang loudly, while Xia Yanle, sitting in the back seat, crossed her arms and stared motionlessly out the window.
A wave of frustration washed over me.
This feeling of frustration has lingered in my heart for a long time.
She once thought that coming into this world would alleviate this feeling of boredom.
The feeling of annoyance did lessen a little, but seeing Qin Ning and Mengmeng hovering around Bai Weiran every day, the annoyance in her chest gradually grew back.
Yesterday, Qin Ning and Mengmeng kept pestering Bai Weiran to tell him about the funny things that happened to him in high school.
The two of them flanked him, listening intently.
Upon hearing about the three-year college entrance examination and five-year mock exam, they sighed and said how pitiful they were.
Mengmeng kissed Qin Ning's left cheek once, and Qin Ning, not to be outdone, kissed her right cheek twice. Mengmeng then challenged Qin Ning, kissing her left cheek three times, and Qin Ning kissed her right cheek four times.
An Qin looked at them with a smile, appearing happy, but Xia Yanle herself felt quite uncomfortable.
They want to go back, but they stubbornly refuse to take the initiative to go.
I used to be able to easily say I liked him, in a teasing, playful way; I was just someone who enjoyed myself.
But now it's impossible.
She sat quietly to the side until she saw Bai Weiran mischievously step back when Qin Ning and Mengmeng were halfway through their playful argument. Qin Ning and Mengmeng were in the middle of a cheek kissing contest when Bai Weiran stepped back, almost causing them to kiss on the lips. Fortunately, she managed to stop in time, but then angrily raised her fist to punch him.
"Bai Weiran is the worst!"
"Brother Weiran is the worst, the worst!!"
They started making a ruckus on the sofa.
Thinking of this, Xia Yanle immediately pursed her lips.
The impressive Greenland Hotel is already visible from afar.
Nana screamed with excitement.
Xx
In the high-ceilinged hall, Wu Ji led Bai Weiran through the crowd.
"Young Master Bai, this is my senior, Da Yuan. She works in an overseas investment bank and has only been back in China for two years."
"Young Master Bai, this is my senior, the one who is eighteen years ahead of us."
"Young Master Bai, this is my junior from school. She started her own company that incubates micro-influencers."
The person introducing them was very enthusiastic, while the person being introduced gave a puzzled yet polite smile and took the initiative to shake hands and exchange pleasantries with Bai Weiran.
