Chapter 17(1/3)
The man on the stage was tall and straight, and his waist was straight, and his emotions could not be seen in his cold and distant eyes. Before he could speak, the little fan girl in the audience screamed, but the slap marks on his face attracted more attention.
[Senior Lu is so handsome! Finally, he waited until he came on stage! He heard from other alumni that Senior Lu is still single. Should we ask about the contact information later?
Once we take the initiative, maybe there will be a chance.
】
[Look, look, is the mark on Senior Lu’s face a slap mark?
Has he been beaten?
】
[Damn it! It really looks like a slap mark. Who beats this?
Senior Lu's outfit, probably the man who hit him was a man?
】
[It's so weird, no wonder he came on stage two minutes late. Did he have a fight with someone in the backstage?
】
There were many different opinions on the stage. The man on the stage began to give a speech without any manuscript. He had black eyebrows and clear eyes, calm and self-control, and the sound overflowing from his throat was calm and powerful, and every word was clear.
With every move, the aura was strong and the hormones were bursting. Until Lu Yanqing stepped down, everyone was guessing who hit the slap on his face.
Lu Yanqing returned to the audience. When Ran Anqi saw him, she smiled and handed him a bottle of water intimately: "This is for you."
The man in front of him had no expression on his face, his eyes were deep, especially when he was not talking, he seemed to be covered with a thin layer of ice, which made it difficult to get close to him.
This has always been the case since I met him when I was young.
Lu Yanqing's face was not good. He calmly withdrew his gaze and said, "No, thank you."
After all, the two of them had been deskmates before, and Ran Anqi knew his personality and was not annoyed. The slap marks on his face, the traces of the five fingers were clearly visible and red.
Ran Anqi just saw it on the stage, and now it is more obvious when viewed from close range.
Ran Anqi said with concern: "Do you want to go to the infirmary for the injury on your face?"
"It's better to ice."
As he finished speaking, Lu Yanqing's eyebrows gathered, his expression seemed impatient, and there was a layer of cold light in his dark pupils, and he didn't say anything.
Ran Anqi was bored and she didn't want to ask more questions.
She glanced at Meng Wanyan's empty seat and guessed something in her heart.
Wanyan used 10% of the force to use this slap just now, and Lu Yanqing pushed his cheeks with his tongue, only worried that her hands would hurt.
When it was Meng Wanyan's turn to deliver a speech, Principal Zhang took the lead on stage. Her expression was warm and gentle, and she slowly spoke: "Dear teachers and classmates sitting, today is the 50th anniversary of the founding of No. 1 Middle School. Here, I have one more important thing to tell you."
Immediately afterwards, the entire lecture hall was quiet for a moment.
Principal Zhang paused, with a kind and kind smile on his face: "As a member of No. 1 Middle School, I think everyone should know that an alumni has been donating to our alma mater for many years. With her selfless help, so many outstanding students have been able to complete their studies smoothly and become pillars of the motherland."
"Before, she has not been able to participate in the previous school anniversary event due to work reasons, but today, we have the honor to invite her to the scene."
Almost all the students of No. 1 Middle School know this mysterious alumnus. They donate three million yuan to the school every year and are very low-key. Almost all the school's activities are sponsored by her, and there are also special scholarships. In recent years, countless students have been sponsored by her, but everyone has never known who she is.
Principal Zhang suddenly mentioned this mysterious alumnus. Many people were looking forward to it, some were grateful, and some were curious.
There was a vague guess in the hearts of everyone present, perhaps a wealthy and successful middle-aged uncle, or one of the outstanding alumni present.
When Principal Zhang said Meng Wanyan's name, the lecture hall was silent for a moment, and everyone was stunned by the news.
The mysterious person is actually Meng Wanyan?
How is that possible?
!
Everyone knows that Meng Wanyan is a celebrity in the school, but her reputation is not good in the entertainment industry. She has been full of dark materials and has bad reputations. Especially in recent times, she has frequently been on hot searches, such as beating people on the set, being kept, having illegitimate children, etc., countless negative news.
Although everyone envied her for her bright and beautiful appearance and living a life that was highly anticipated, she secretly looked like those netizens, despising and sarcastic. Among the people present, she might be one of the many keyboard warriors.
After a brief silence, the audience started to talk.
[Is Principal Zhang’s words true or false?
That mysterious alumnus is actually Meng Wanyan?
She donates so much money every year, is she really so kind?
It's been several years, so it's too low-key...]
[It's not surprising that she is, right?
Besides, it is easier for celebrities to make money than us. If you make a TV series, you can earn millions. We probably won’t be able to earn so much in our lifetime, right?
】
[That's right, she is really kind. She has helped so many classmates, and it is not as bad as what is said online. At least she has a good character and a positive view. There is nothing to complain about about donating money.
】
[Don’t think too simple. Maybe Meng Wanyan has other purposes, such as taking advantage of this topic and getting a hot search again. She is so good at hyping it up. How could she miss this opportunity? I guess she will still have a "beautiful and kind-hearted" character design at that time.
】
[I don't care what character she is doing. Her donation is a fact, and helping so many students is also a fact. There is really no need to think that people are so vicious. If you have the ability of her, will you donate?
】
Suddenly, there was a mess in the audience, and everything was said. Principal Zhang said "quiet", and the discussion at the scene stopped. Then Meng Wanyan stepped onto the stage in high heels, and the girl wore a white women's suit with a slender waist and a slender figure.
She stood on the stage, and everyone stared at her with their eyes.
The girl looked calm and smiled slightly, and said step by step that she memorized the speech in advance.
Starting from Wanyan's speech, the restless audience slowly calmed down. The girls on the stage had a shallow makeup, delicate eyebrows and eyes, and their every move was thrilling.
"... Someone once said that when the sky reaches a certain level of darkness, the stars will shine brightly, but please keep the love in your heart and go to the next mountain and sea. I believe everyone will eventually break out of the cocoon and become a butterfly."
Meng Wanyan's speech speed is neither fast nor slow, her voice is warm and soft, which is very different from the image on the screen. Her apricot eyes, which are clearly black and white, are slightly bent, and the stars are flashing in her eyes.
In the audience, Lu Yanqing looked at her steadily, her eyes as quiet as a pool, and the clear and shallow look of the girl was engraved in his heart.

After the school celebration, Principal Zhang specially gathered several young people together and had a meal together, in order to thank them for taking the time to attend the school anniversary.
The people in the hall slowly exposed themselves, and some people left them until the end, trying to find Meng Wanyan's signature.
Most of them are students, Meng Wanyan refuses everyone and signs the autograph with a smile.
A little girl in school uniform looked at Wanyan without blinking her eyes. When Wanyan raised her eyes to look at her, the girl blushed with embarrassment and whispered: "Senior Sister Wanyan, you are so gentle, not as fierce as you said on Weibo."
Meng Wanyan pursed her lips and smiled. The depression condensed in her heart slowly dissipated. She spoke in a warm voice: "Then you have to study hard and read less on Weibo."
The little girl blinked and her voice was very small: "Actually you are a very nice person."
Soon, Principal Zhang brought another girl, thin and small, wearing a pair of black-framed glasses. When she saw Meng Wanyan, her eyes were a little dodged, and she even had nowhere to put her hands and feet, and she was nervous and cramped to the naked eye.
Principal Zhang smiled and said, "Wanyan, this is the junior who has always wanted to see you, Tang Xinyu."
Meng Wanyan then remembered that Principal Zhang mentioned to her a girl who is now a sophomore this morning.
But this person looked very young, and Meng Wanyan mistakenly thought she was a high school student at first sight.
Principal Zhang left time until they were alone. Tang Xinyu glanced at Wanyan, then lowered her head, looking a little embarrassed. Wanyan thought she was nervous, so she took the lead and said, "I heard from Principal Zhang that you are still used to studying at A University?"
Tang Xinyu raised her eyes, looked at her, nodded. She was still holding a letter and a gift box in her hand, but she didn't move for a long time.
Wanyan is not good at chatting, and the two of them are speechless for a moment. Just as she is about to speak, the girl in front of her suddenly has red eyes, bent down at her ninety degrees, bowed, and said, "I'm sorry."
Wanyan was a little confused. Before she could figure out why this person said that, the girl turned around and ran away.
Wanyan looked at the letter and gift box held in the girl's hand, and couldn't help laughing, guessing in her heart that the two things might be intended to give to her.
On the way to the hotel, Principal Zhang took Meng Wanyan and Ran Anqi and three others to Lu Yanqing's car.
While a few people were chatting, Principal Zhang couldn't help but ask about them.
Ran Anqi now works in a bank, with stable salary and strong abilities. She has just been promoted to senior executive this year, and Principal Zhang couldn't help but feel relieved after hearing this.
Ran Anqi knew the relationship between Lu Yanqing and Meng Wanyan. When they were both deskmates in the past, Ran Anqi often saw Lu Yanqing and Meng Wanyan together.
Now in the same car, these two people didn't say a word.
Ran Anqi looked at Meng Wanyan, her eyes fell on the girl's beautiful face, and she said casually: "Wanyan, are you artists very hard to work?"
Meng Wanyan looked back and smiled: "It's okay."
Ran Anqi: "I heard that your former boyfriend was also from No. 1 Middle School. Didn't he come today?"
Meng Wanyan curled her lips and smiled, raised her eyes to meet the woman's inquiring gaze: "I broke up long ago, maybe we are not suitable."
After saying that, Principal Zhang was a little surprised, while Ran Anqi was thinking.
Lu Yanqing pursed her lips, but looked at her with no words.
