Xu Wanwan bent down and looked for her seat. After a few steps, she saw her name on the chair in front of her and stopped in her tracks.

In front of her was a pair of men’s leather shoes. Her gaze followed the man’s straight suit pants and slowly moved upward. Her eyes became fixed on Li Jingran’s face and she froze.

“You...why are you here?”

She clearly did not ask Li Jingran to attend the orientation party. How did he know?

Li Jingran’s thin lips curved slightly. He leaned over and met the girl’s eyes. “Can’t I come?”

“No...” Xu Wanwan’s expression was complicated. She quietly stood up and sat beside the man.

Lin Jianan pulled Xu Wanwan and whispered into her ear, “Wanwan, this is the president of the Li Group. I don’t know why he took your seat.”

“Are you angry?”

Xu Wanwan shook her head slightly and lowered her voice, “It’s okay. There’s no one sitting next to me anyway.”

The school had reserved two seats for every student so that their parents could watch the performance.

She didn’t invite anyone, so she was curious why Li Jingran would come here.

Xu Wanwan was worried that she would be seen and misunderstood. She didn’t turn around to look at the man’s eyes the whole time. After thinking for a while, she suddenly understood.

She moved slightly to the man’s side and asked in a low voice, “Are you here to look for your brother?”

Li Xuyi happened to be in the same class as her, and Li Jingran was his family. It seemed that Li Jingran was here to look for his brother.

“Miss Xu, do you think I don’t know the words on the chair?” Li Jingran tilted his head and glanced at the girl, his tone light.

Xu Wanwan was stunned once again. She stared at him in a daze and didn’t say anything for a long time.

There was a wonderful show on the stage, and she could hear the pleasant music playing.

Li Jingran’s profile was shrouded in the shadow of the lights, deep and intriguing.

Xu Wanwan’s mind replayed the words he had just said to her.

Yes, if he was looking for Li Xuyi, how could he have mistaken the location?

Xu Wanwan bit the corner of her lips and asked softly, “Then, you’re here for me?”

Li Jingran’s voice turned colder as he asked in return, “Why didn’t you tell me that the school was holding a welcoming party?”

Xu Wanwan pursed her lips. “I felt that you were very busy and didn’t want to waste your time.”

Li Jingran’s expression turned a little better when he heard that.

He said calmly, “If there’s anything in the future, let me know.”

Xu Wanwan hesitated and said, “Okay, I got it.”

Three hours later, the performance ended.

The students got up and left the venue amid the cheerful music. The crowd walked out in twos and threes.

Xu Wanwan stole a glance at the man. Seeing that he was sitting there without moving, she carefully reminded him, “The party is over. Why don’t you go back first?”

“Why? Aren’t you going back with me?”

“I… I want to go back later,” Xu Wanwan quickly explained. “The counselor might look for me later. Don’t worry, I’ll go back soon.”

Li Jingran looked at the time on his wrist and stood up immediately. “The driver is waiting for you outside the school.”

Xu Wanwan nodded and watched him leave with a smile on her face.

When she saw him walk out of the auditorium, she finally let out a sigh of relief and leaned heavily on her chair.

Lin Jianan had so much to say and quickly went up to her. “Wanwan, did you talk to that big boss Li just now?”

She was not in the mood to watch the performance tonight. Her attention was entirely on Xu Wanwan and Li Jingran.

But she noticed that the big boss Li would secretly peek at Xu Wanwan time and time again. He even talked to Wanwan when he left the auditorium.

Xu Wanwan had guessed that Lin Jianan would ask this question, so she calmly replied, “He asked me how to get out of the auditorium.”

“That can’t be.” Lin Jianan was not easy to fool. “I saw that big boss?Li not asking for directions when he got here. How could he forget his way back so quickly?”

Xu Wanwan choked. “Then he might be too noble he forgot.”

Lin Jianan carefully observed Xu Wanwan’s expression. Her intuition was telling her that something was amiss. “Wanwan, tell me the truth. Does that big boss Li have a crush on you?”

Xu Wanwan almost choked and coughed a few times.

Before she could think of an explanation, a mocking voice suddenly sounded from beside her ear.

“Ha, my brother having a crush on her?”

Lin Jianan looked up and saw Li Xuyi leaning against the chair in the corridor with a cold expression and a hint of disdain in his eyes.

Lin Jianan became instantly displeased. “What are you saying? Although your brother is very outstanding, Wanwan is not bad either.”

“Moreover, your brother kept peeping at Wanwan just now. When he left, he said something to her. Maybe he wanted her contact information.”

Xu Wanwan reached out and grabbed Lin Jianan. She shook her head at her. “Stop talking...”

Lin Jianan frowned but did not say anything.

Li Xuyi did not believe her at all and sneered. “I think it’s more like she’s pestering my brother.”

After that, he looked at Xu Wanwan and said meaningfully, “After all, some people are just better at pestering.”

Xu Wanwan did not get angry at all. She smiled and said politely, “Are you done?”

“Are you angry?” Li Xuyi crossed his arms. “Are you here to teach me a lesson?”

“No, you’re blocking the way.” Xu Wanwan got up, walked up to him, and said with a smile, “Excuse me.”

Li Xuyi frowned. He felt offended and very unhappy.

Xu Wanwan could not be bothered with him. She pulled Lin Jianan and squeezed past him, leaving the auditorium without looking back.

After walking out of the school gate, Lin Jianan went home with her parents.

Xu Wanwan rubbed her arms and looked for a car nearby.

Across the road, a black Bentley was parked under the sycamore tree.

The night was quiet. A gust of wind swept away the fallen leaves. Xu Wanwan trotted toward the road.

Autumn had just begun when she entered school, so the weather at night was a little chilly. She opened the car door and got in.

“Uncle Liu, it’s a little cold today. Did I make you wait long?” When she said this, she had not seen the driver’s figure yet and only asked herself.

As soon as she said this, the air conditioner in the car was turned on and hot air was injected into the car.

Xu Wanwan suddenly felt much warmer. She leaned against the corner and said softly, “Thank you, Uncle Liu.”

Li Jingran glanced at the girl through the car window. Seeing that she did not recognize him, his eyes darkened. He started the car and drove back.

Xu Wanwan looked at the fallen leaves by the roadside and suddenly felt a little sad. She suddenly thought of Li Jingran and frowned slightly.

He was clearly very busy, yet he still had to find time to attend the orientation party at school.

Thinking of this, Xu Wanwan could not help but ask, “Uncle Liu, has Mr. Li been very busy recently?”

“Did he just go back to the office?”

It was very quiet in the car. Xu Wanwan looked at the dim street lights outside and waited for Uncle Liu’s reply.

Seeing that she was concerned for him, Li Jingran’s thin lips curled up a bit. “I didn’t go back.”

His voice was like a pearl sliding into cool silk, and in the quiet night, it seemed extraordinarily tasteful.
