The little girl tilted her head back, looking at him expectantly. Seeing that the man hadn't moved for a while, she shook her slightly sore little hand that was raised in mid-air, and pouted pitifully, "Ah Zhou, I want a hug~~"
Yan Jingzhou's gaze lingered on Gong Ning's flushed face for a few seconds. Just as he was about to reach out, he suddenly caught a fleeting glimpse of a misty look in the girl's bright black eyes.
His eyes narrowed instantly, and the temperature of the air that had been cool around him dropped sharply.
The onlookers, who had been watching the situation unfold, saw Yan Jingzhou's expression suddenly turn very bad, and their tense nerves immediately relaxed, their expressions gradually softening as well.
I knew it!
How could Gong Ning possibly know Professor Yan? She must be drunk.
She actually dared to dream that Professor Yan would give her a hug!
Dream on!
The crowd continued to cast mocking and sarcastic glances at Gong Ning, secretly pleased with themselves.
Now, let's just wait and see how this goes!
Oh dear, this forum at Liangda University is going to be a great place for after-dinner entertainment!
Some people, not wanting to miss out on the excitement, even took out their phones and opened live streaming apps to broadcast the event live!
Yan Jingzhou suddenly grabbed Gong Ning's fair and smooth chin, his deep, husky voice carrying a hint of impending danger, "Have you been drinking?"
The tone was flat and deep, and it was an affirmative sentence!
The moment Yan Jingzhou appeared, Gong Ning subconsciously let down her guard, and the alcohol she had been forcibly controlling began to spread uncontrollably once again.
Her bright eyes became even more luminous, yet they couldn't help but be filled with layers of misty tears!
The familiar and pleasant voice in her ear made her subconsciously curve her lips into a smile, and she took a step forward to hug the man's lean and muscular waist.
Her flushed face pressed softly against the man's hot chest, and she rubbed against him obediently!
"Yes! Ah Zhou, wine is so delicious! Will you take me home? We have wine at home. I know, Xingzhan Garden has a very, very beautiful wine cellar... Ah Zhou~"
Yan Jingzhou's icy black eyes instantly froze. His brows furrowed, he gripped her arm tightly, and coldly rebuked, "Gong Ning! Who gave you permission to drink?"
Gong Ning blinked her clear eyes in a daze!
Why did Ah Zhou get angry?
Almost simultaneously, Yan Jingzhou's icy gaze swept over the Class 4 students standing gloating at the doorway. "It's you?"
Everyone: ? ? !!
The scolding voice made the little girl in his arms frown subconsciously. Before the panicked onlookers could prove their innocence, she suddenly released her arms from the man's waist.
She jumped back, standing a step away from him, sniffing and glaring angrily at the man whose face was as dark as ink. With her hands on her hips, she snapped at him, "Yan Jingzhou, how dare you yell at me?"
Yan Jingzhou: "......"
Everyone: "......"
"I was bullied. That nasty woman called me a good-for-nothing, a pretty face with no substance, and said I only know how to cry and play the victim. She even called me a little bitch. She bullied me like that, and instead of standing up for me and getting revenge, you yelled at me! You actually yelled at me, Yan Jingzhou, you yelled at me!"
Everyone: "......"
Are you sure you were the one who was bullied?
Yan Jingzhou's melancholy gaze suddenly fell still as he lowered his eyes to meet the little girl's slightly reddened eyes.
There, hidden grievances and crimson stains lie concealed.
The softest spot in the man's heart was suddenly stabbed, and his hands, hanging at his sides, curled up slightly.
The corridor fell into an eerie and deathly silence for a moment.
Principal Qin recognized Gong Ning as this year's top scorer in the college entrance examination the moment he saw her.
