It was the school’s 100th anniversary, so the school arranged for the top three students in each class to attend as representatives .
Teachers, students, and guests filled the rows .
The host was doing a wonderful job as well .
Xuxu, Su Yue, and Bai Jing sat together in a row . Yan Rusheng informed Xuxu that he had something to settle first .
But half an hour later, he still wasn’t back .
Xuxu peered around the venue, looking for him .
“I’m sure all the teachers and students are familiar with our next esteemed guest . He is the President of Flourish & Prosper and he too graduated from Yizhong . ”
The host loudly announced the arrival of Flourish & Prosper’s President .
Xuxu glanced at the stage in shock .
“Let us applaud to warmly welcome President Yan Rusheng from Flourish & Prosper . ”
Applause thundered and echoed around before Xuxu could react .
The gorgeous man, dressed smartly in a suit, strode across the stage towards the host .
The host bowed and gestured at the microphone stand . “President Yan . ”
He gracefully walked to the microphone stand . He began to speak with a faint smile playing on his lips . “The principal insisted that I had to give a speech . I only have a few words . I would like to thank Yizhong, and I would like to thank Teacher Li for organizing a summer camp for our class . ”
He paused as his eyes darted to a specific woman in the crowd . The woman looked surprised… and she seemed touched at the same time .
A tender smile played at the corners of his mouth . “And lastly, Xuxu, thank you for accompanying me through my childhood . ”
Yan Rusheng nodded curtly at the crowd .
After that, he left the stage .
It had everyone dumbfounded . The speech… was way too brief .
The principal and teachers were all silently protesting .
He should have thanked his teachers in his speech and made some touching comments . But all he did was to mention his childhood sweetheart on stage .
Other than Xuxu and Yan Rusheng, no one else knew why Yan Rusheng had thanked Teacher Li for organizing the summer camp for the class .
Yan Rusheng strode towards Xuxu and stood before her . He bent and kissed her tenderly on her forehead .
He then glanced at Su Yue, but she didn’t intend to give up his seat at all since Ming Ansheng was sitting beside her .
He glanced at Bai Jing instead .
Bai Jing understood and rose . “Third Brother, you can have my seat . ”
There was an empty seat behind her, so Bai Jing occupied it instead .
“Bai Jing . ” One seat away was Zhao Zheng . He craned his neck to look at Bai Jing with a smile .
Bai Jing glanced at him with a cold look, but she didn’t respond .
Yan Rusheng sat down next to Xuxu and turned to face her .
Xuxu said in a hushed whisper, “Why didn’t you tell me you were giving a speech?”
Yan Rusheng flashed a charming smile at her . “I wanted to give you a surprise . ”
“So annoying,” whispered Xuxu as she pinched Yan Rusheng’s bicep .
Yan Rusheng intercepted her hand and tightened his grip on her hand .
Both of their hands intertwined tightly as they gazed at the stage once more .
The place holds so many wonderful memories .
Bai Jing stared at Yan Rusheng and Xuxu, a bit envious .
‘Don’t you want to have him…’
Zhao Zheng’s words invoked her desire once more .
Ming Ansheng had just answered a call and he said to Su Yue, “Something cropped up and I need to leave now . ”
