More than a month has passed in the blink of an eye, and June has arrived, marking the beginning of summer.
Zhen Tian recently finished her driving test (Part 2), and she looks much darker now.
After she finishes her driving test (Part 3), she's going to really work on whitening her skin.
"You're still so dark, I'm at my wit's end." Yang Tao said, biting into a peach and watching Zhen Tian change clothes in front of the mirror.
"You've gotten so much darker than before."
In the end, Zhen Tian chose a light pink floral print sundress. She combed her hair up high and put it into a bun.
She wore a delicate pink makeup look, and finally, she wore a heart-shaped earring surrounded by pearls.
She was wearing a pair of half-length strappy sandals.
After getting everything ready, she turned around in front of the mirror.
"Beautiful, absolutely gorgeous. Absolutely stunning." Yang Tao swallowed the last bite of peach and mumbled, "She's like a fairy descended from heaven. If I were a man, I'd be smitten."
"Can't you put a little more effort into your compliments?" Zhen Tian was amused by her.
"I really put my heart into this, okay?" Yang Tao swallowed the peach flesh. "It's truly the most incredible thing ever. His girlfriend attends his graduation ceremony while he goes abroad for a diplomatic conference. My idol is indeed my idol, absolutely amazing."
"He's too busy to come."
Ji Yuzhi recently went abroad with his superiors, which happened to coincide with the graduation ceremony at the Capital Foreign Languages University. The principal understood that he couldn't make it back. However, he still needed to bring back his graduation certificate, degree certificate, and certificate of outstanding graduation.
In the end, Ji Yuzhi and the principal agreed that his fiancée would go in his place.
His fiancée is none other than Zhen Tian.
Sweetie finally applied a layer of lipstick in front of the mirror.
She was extremely satisfied with the pink and energetic girlish makeup she had done today.
"Hurry up, the ceremony across the street will be over soon." She had already finished eating the peach she was waiting for, but Sweetie was still not done.
Zhen Tian glanced at the pink and white sports watch on her wrist: "Ah, it's too late, right now."
She haphazardly stuffed her cosmetics and phone into her bag.
"You bought a new bag? This one's nice." Yang Tao glanced at it and knew she hadn't seen the brand before: "What brand is it?"
"A designer's brand, but I can't pronounce the French."
The bag is white, made of lambskin that's as soft as a cloud, and has a thick gold chain—commonly known as a "big gold chain." It's a very simple color scheme and design, yet it looks very stylish.
"Okay, okay, I'm all better now, let's go."
Zhen Tian grabbed Yang Tao and ran downstairs.
Downstairs were three men in sharp suits and a young woman who had dressed up specially.
"Have you been waiting a long time?" Zhen Tian smiled, her eyes crinkling.
"Sister-in-law, you look so beautiful today!" Wen Jiujiu looked down at herself and realized that she looked like a cross-dresser in a dress. When would she be able to look like a fairy no matter what she wore, like her sister-in-law?
"Thank you." Zhen Tian gave Wen Jiujiu a big smile. "Are we going to be late?"
"We're here in a hurry," Feng Li said in a deep voice after glancing at the time.
"It's alright, no matter who's missing, we can't leave out our boss." Zheng An walked beside Zhen Tian with a grin: "If our boss hadn't been unwilling, the principal would have directly recommended her for graduate school. He was practically offering her a master's degree with both hands."
"Huh? Why isn't Zhizhi going?" Zhen Tian completely ignored what Ji Yuzhi was saying about this.
“Yu Zhi probably wants to study diplomacy. After all, there’s no point in him pursuing a master’s degree at Beijing Foreign Studies University now,” Zhao Zeyuan explained.
“Yeah, and the boss’s foreign language skills are already insane, okay?” Zheng An thought back to the fear of being dominated by Ji Yuzhi during his freshman and sophomore years: “You have no idea how much pressure the boss’s photographic memory put on us.”
The sight of three men and three women walking in a row is quite beautiful.
This is especially true outside the capital.
Because of Ji Yuzhi's fame, Zheng An, Zhao Zeyuan, Feng Li, and others have also attracted much attention.
The job season has become the top choice for graduates of Beijing Foreign Studies University.
However, the recruitment process during the work season is very strict, and so far very few people have been successfully hired.
Zhen Tian was surrounded by everyone in the center, with Tao Zi on her right and Zheng An on her left.
To Zheng An's left is Feng Li, and to Tao Zi's right are Wen Jiujiu and Zhao Zeyuan.
Zhen Tian is the center of attention, just like a little princess.
Ji Yuzhi is a well-known figure at the art university, but only students at the art university know that Zhen Tian is Ji Yuzhi's fiancée; very few people at the university know this.
So along the way, many people came to inquire about Zhen Tian's identity.
But Zheng An chased them all away.
When they arrived at the auditorium, Zhen Tian sat down with everyone else.
Attending a graduation ceremony early, and at another school's graduation ceremony at that, was quite a novel experience.
She sat quietly and elegantly the whole time, making Taozi next to her afraid to breathe loudly for fear of embarrassing Zhen Tian.
After the principal's speech, the deans and directors gave their speeches.
Zhen Tian listened very attentively; she probably wouldn't have listened this attentively even at her own graduation ceremony.
"This year, our school has produced an outstanding graduate. I think everyone knows who it is without me saying it."
The men and women below chanted Ji Yuzhi's name in unison.
The principal returned to preside over the ceremony again, and he nodded with a smile: "Yes, it is Ji Yuzhi. He is not only an honor for the Capital University of Foreign Studies, but now he also represents the country and the honor of each and every one of us."
"He couldn't attend the graduation ceremony today due to work commitments, but as an outstanding graduate, I asked him to write a message for everyone. Today, Ji Yuzhi's fiancée, Zhen Tian, will speak on his behalf."
"Your turn," Yang Tao teased Zhen Tian.
"Go, sister-in-law!" Zheng An encouraged Zhen Tian.
Zhen Tian smiled. She thought she would be very nervous, but as she walked onto the stage, it felt as if every step she took was being guided forward. She was filled with courage and confidence.
"Hello everyone, I'm Zhen Tian, Ji Yuzhi's fiancée." The moment Zhen Tian stepped onto the stage and introduced herself, it's undeniable that many boys felt envious. A big shot like him, even his fiancée is so beautiful.
“Zhizhi… Ji Yuzhi.” She rarely called Ji Yuzhi by his full name, but calling him Zhizhi in this situation would be inappropriate. She made several mistakes and changed her address on the spot: “Ji Yuzhi regrets that he was unable to come to the scene in person, so he wrote a part of his message and asked me to convey it to him.”
"I am neither an idol nor a hero..."
Zhen Tian read Ji Yuzhi's words aloud. There were no profound words or fancy phrases, just simple and even plain sentences, but every sentence was powerful.
"Finally, I'm very grateful to the school for giving Ji Yuzhi such an honor. Being an outstanding graduate doesn't come easily; he's been studying every moment of his life since he was a child. He's not a genius, not particularly gifted; he's just more hardworking than many others. So he wants to tell everyone that hard work will definitely pay off. He hopes his juniors will all do their best. He hopes to see everyone during the work season. Thank you."
