Chapter 52 - Simple, Vulnerable Woman
Days passed and Jiang Chanming continued to suffer from the sudden scandals that hit his company.
While he is doing his best to win over the raging board members, Lu Shi and Jiang Mian are also doing their best to win the sympathy of the people.
Jiang Mian issued an apology to Jiang Yue. She used all her acting talents as she cried and begged for Jiang Yue's forgiveness in an interview.
After the interview, Jiang Mian suddenly got sick and was admitted to the hospital. The doctors informed the media that it was because of depression.
Jiang Mian's situation earned her some sympathy. The mother and daughter pair thought that they could fall everyone.
However, who is Jiang Yue?
Jiang Yue already know what they are planning.. So, she did the best thing, okay maybe the second best thing that she is good at, ignoring them.
She chose to stay silent and watched the show that the mother and daughter pair wanted to brew. Jiang Yue can't really help but applaud both Lu Shi and Jiang Mian.
They almost used all of their efforts just for their plans ah. Just like what Lu Shi said, they are going all out!
And for what?
Just to get Fu Jin from Jiang Yue.
And to think that Fu Jin is not even hers.
Yet.
"You know, I always thought that the almighty Young Master Fu is worth something like this. I mean look at the effort that Jiang Mian is doing just to gain a little sympathy from you." Jiang Yue said, her voice a little bubbly.
"Hmmm..." Fu Jin just nodded and chose not to say anything. This did not happen in his previous life. His interference in Jiang Yue's life must have made a lot of changes.
However, Fu Jin does not have any time to dwell with unimportant people right now. They are on their way to see the results of the National Exams!
This is a very exciting event for him ah. Fu Jin's lips curled as he took a peek at the necklace hanging in Jiang Yue's neck.
The necklace suit Jiang Yue's pale neck. He always wanted to give this necklace to her in his past life. However, his cowardice won over his feelings.
The glowing appreciation in Fu Jin's eyes didn't go unnoticed by Jiang Yue.
Seeing his intense gaze, Jiang Yue can't help the little red hue from showing in her ears. She already knows what Fu Jin is thinking and to be honest, she is quite excited to know the result of the exam as well.
Wait, did she just blush?
Jiang Yue widened her eyes then lowered her head in embarrassment.
Since when did this guy's gaze had this effect on her?
Sensing that Fu Jin is still looking at her, Jiang Yue made a direct eye contact with him as she gives him a glare.
This guy should just stop looking at her like this. She is also a woman ah.
A simple, vulnerable woman!
When Fu Jin saw her reaction, he immediately chuckled. His beloved is the most beautiful.
"So, are you going to stay in the car?" Jiang Yue asked her gaze unfocused, trying to avoid another eye contact.
"Yes." He answered.
"Why?" She asks clearly confused. "Do you already know the result of the exam?"
"No. But I already know that I will win," he answered while giving her a smirk.
He couldn't wait. Minutes from now and Jiang Yue will become his official girlfriend.
He started to wonder how it would feel to hold her hands whenever he liked to.
"Really?" Jiang Yue cocked her head. This man sure is confident.
Still, Jiang Yue could not deny the fact that she is also excited. The result of this exam does not really matter.
The bet says that she will always become his girlfriend; the only question is when.
Maybe she is also looking forward to becoming his official girlfriend.
Who wouldn't? Fu Jin is perfect. He is handsome and kind. He is also honest and supportive. Aside from that, the best thing about Fu Jin is he can COOK and BAKE!
I mean, What is the most important thing in a relationship aside from love and respect?
Sex? No! of course not!
It's food!
A relationship will not work without delicious food!
Jiang Yue let out a chuckle while weird thoughts started to flood her mind.
It is almost two month's since her company and cafe started and so far a lot of people liked it.
Everyone loved the food in her cafe. What they don't know is that the recipes are personally made by Jiang Yue and Fu Jin.
Jiang Yue even consider the cafe as their baby. A product of their hard work. Of course, she will not mention this to Fu Jin. She will keep these thoughts inside her forever. Or maybe not!
"Young Miss, Young Master we are already at the University." She heard Bei'Ye said in his low tone.
Bei'Ye and Fu Jin had been tagging with her in the last two months. Fu Jin even bought a house near Wang's estate so he does not have to travel so long to see her.
And she would be lying if she will say that she hated it. In fact, she likes his company. She feels like his presence is making her a little happy. Giving her warmth and comfort.
"Are you sure you are not going inside?" She asked Fu Jin for the last time before going out of the car.
"Yes. I will wait for you in the car." He answered. Fu Jin decided to stay not because he is so confident of the result. He decided to stay because he would like to buy a dozen of purple tulips to congratulate her.
Jiang Yue just nodded before getting out of the car and walk towards the university.
Today, a lot of people are at the university. Both parents and students are waiting for the announcement of the top 10 people who passed the National Exams with flying colors.
The result of the National Exams will be announced in the same way all throughout the top universities in the country.
First, they will mention the top 10 students then show the remaining names of the passers. However, the results will only be posted on the most prestigious school in the City. And in this case, it is Jiang Yue's school.
Jiang Yue dialed Shen Rong's number as she walked towards the cafeteria. There are a lot of people at the university today. So, she agreed to meet with her friend in the school cafeteria.
"Jiang Yue over here!" She immediately heard Shen Rong's voice the moment that she took a step inside.
She made her way into Shen Rong and was taken aback when she saw Miss Shen nervously fidgeting beside her. She gives a warm smile to both of them and occupied the vacant seat across Shen Rong.
"What's wrong?" She asked. She had sensed that the atmosphere is quite weird.
"Don't mind her. She is just nervous about the results." Shen Rong shrugged."So, Jiang Mian sent an invitation to her birthday tomorrow. She never invited me before. Don't you think it's weird?"
"Don't know, she also sent an invitation to my grandfather." Jiang Yue said. Of course, it's not weird. Jiang Mian and Lu Shi are planning for such a great show. They needed more audience.
"Teacher Shen, you should relax. Take it easy. It's just an exam result." Jiang Yue turned her attention towards the tense Miss Shen.
"Jiang Yue this is not just another exam result. This is Elder Sister's last chance to prove to this university that she is still fit to teach here. If she will not have many passers from her class then Headmistress Lu will kick her out of the school." Shen Rong explained. This time she gives her sister a pat in the back.
"What if someone from her class enters the top ten?" Jiang Yue inquired.
"Hmp! Top ten? Keep dreaming!"
A shrill and annoying voice suddenly jeered. Interrupting their conversation.
