Chapter 126 - Don't Mind Introducing You As My Daughter
By laughing at her Chinese marks, was he mocking her? She pursed her lips. This guy was definitely showing his true colors right now.
He let go of her hand before raising his hand to stroke her head.
Her eyes widened slightly.
''You've done well," The man said before looking back at the mark sheet.
''Mr. Jun," Professor Zhang adjusted her glasses as she cleared her throat before calling the man, "She needs to improve in Chinese. Even though her marks in other subjects are excellent, but to graduate, she will have to get passing marks in Chinese which is 33."
''I'll teach her," Jun Zixuan said.
''That will be much better. Since she doing exceptionally well in other subjects, I don't have to worry about anything else.''
Yu Mei glanced at the lady, "I can learn by myself," She said.
"I gave you extra classes and your desk-mate Li Shuang have been trying to help you as well. But after being taught by us, you scored two points less," Professor Zhang gave her a look, "On that basis, you aren't eligible to learn Chinese by yourself.''
Yu Mei averted her gaze, having no retort since it was true anyway.
Graduating and getting good marks in Chinese for once was already more than enough for her. The second time was not what she had asked for.
The PTM went on like that while Yu Mei left the classroom followed by Jun Zixuan.
She did not stop and walked straight towards the dorm.
''Meiā¦" The man called out.
''I'll appreciate it if you stop following me around," She paused and spoke without turning back to look at him, "Makes me uncomfortable.''
In the dorm.
"You look like your world has fallen apart," said Mia as she noticed the woman who was furiously sketching designs and tearing off the pages a second later.
The floor of the room was in a mess with torn pages of her sketchbook.
Yu Mei did not reply.
''Why do you have to ignore him?"
She turned around to look at the girl, "You can't be biased towards him just because he is good-looking."
Mia pursed her lips, "A good-looking male.'' She mumbled under her breath.
''I heard that."
Mia: "_"
Yu Mei took out her phone before making a call. The call was answered within two rings.
''President," The man on the other side answered the call.
Yu Mei stood up from the chair, "Director Xiang, I want the financial and weekly strategic reports within an hour,'' she said, satisfied that man was finally learning the proper way to address her.
''Did someone provoke you, lass?" Old Man Xiang asked.
Lass again. The corner of her lips twitched, "Thirty minutes."
"You...Fine.''
"And yes, tell Lyra to behave properly. The news regarding her getting a new boyfriend after a week of her breakup is all over the news outlets. For the world, she is now President Leanne. I don't care about her private life but she can't drag Rosette down with her,'' She said.
"I'll talk to her."
''Yeah. Thanks," Yu Mei hung up the phone before walking towards the bed.
She covered her face in her palms as she sat on the bed with her elbows on her thighs.
The day after she moved to the dormitory, Old Man Xiang called her to inform her that he has found someone who is perfect to play the role of the CEO of Rosette.
Lyra. The woman graduated with a good university major in fashion design, but she came from a middle-class family. Although she was not eligible for business or to be a CEO, she had adequate knowledge of designing.
She did not interfere with Xiang Le's choice and let him go ahead with the woman he chose.
Soon, Lyra was introduced as President Leanne to the world. And the news made it to the headlines for a few weeks.
But a few higher-ups of the company along with Xiang Le were well aware of the situation.
In these months, she worked from behind the curtains and along with Leanne's appearance, Rosette managed to get through the trial. She contacted the higher-ups and Director Xiang using the phone, without meeting them.
Although Xiang Le has seen her, that was when she was still fat. After their last meeting when she had stated her conditions to help Rosette, she had not met him.
While Rosette was on rise, there was one thing she was waiting for. And that was for her brother to look for the current CEO who was an impostor.
But to her disappointment, there has been no move from his side since Lyra was declared as the CEO.
The world might be unaware of it but Han Jian Yu is well aware of who is Leanne.
Right now, in his eyes, his sister was dead so how will he react when he knows an impostor has taken his sister's position?
He would not let it go lightly and might even go looking for the current CEO and that will turn out to be her perfect opportunity to reunite with him.
The next morning, her daily routine continued. She went to the gym and after coming back to the dorms, she took a shower and went to the morning classes.
Since the final exams were starting after a month, the classes have been reduced to give them time for self-study and revisions.
''Will you go with me or stay in the dorms?" Yu Mei asked Mia.
Mia shrugged, "I'll be staying here. Who would want to go anywhere staying inside your body?"
She sat beside the little girl, "Mia, give me some more time, alright?"
Mia glanced at the woman.
Yu Mei let out a soft sigh, "I know that you want to be able to explore the world in your original form but I'm not able to take you anywhere with me," She paused for a moment before continuing, ''I don't mind introducing you as my daughter to everyone since our DNAs match already.''
