Chapter 8 The Beauty in My Dream, on the Other Side of the Water
Walking out of the teacher's office, Ye Hai Ning looked embarrassed. She had been looking for a job for several days but hadn't found a suitable one yet. She took out her phone and after some mental struggle, she still dialed her home phone number. Her father wouldn't be heartless to this extent, would he?
Hmph...
The phone was picked up after a ring, and Xiao Lihong's voice came from the other end with a venomous greeting: "You haven't starved to death yet? What are you calling for?"
"Give the phone to my dad!" Ye Hai Ning didn't want to talk to her stepmother at all.
Xiao Lihong sneered and laughed: "Didn't you say that you would cut off the father-daughter relationship? Your dad said that he never wants to see you again in this life, as if you were never born as his daughter!" After finishing speaking, she ruthlessly hung up the phone, leaving Ye Haicheng listening to the icy hang-up tone, her heart slowly turning cold...
Her right hand holding the phone fell weakly to one side of her body, and she walked forward in a daze, thinking about the scene that day. In a moment of carelessness, she bumped into a car, followed by the sudden sound of an alarm blaring.
"Ah……" Ye Hai Ning softly exclaimed, only to find herself bumping into a car, many passing classmates looked at her, the alarm sounded non-stop, how embarrassing, really want to find a crack in the ground to drill into.
At this time, the class teacher pulled Ye Haining aside and scolded in a low voice: "What are you doing? Can't you watch where you're going? If you damage someone else's car, who will pay for it?"
Ye Hai Ning was very puzzled, he didn't do it on purpose, and why was the grade director so idle here today? He inadvertently took a glance at the side and was surprised to find that there were suddenly so many luxury cars, each one was a limited edition of famous brands, Mercedes-Benz, Rolls-Royce, Maserati, Lamborghini... The brand logos of those cars were dazzling in the sunlight.
"Look! Look! It's Lu Feifan! I heard he's going to donate tens of millions to our school! He's really rich!"
"But why sponsor our third-rate university? Ah... but he really looks so handsome, it's like he has a face that all the women in the world want to sleep with!"
"Who knows? Maybe it's because he has a lot of money and is showing off, or maybe he's taken a liking to someone? Haha..."
……
Lu Fei Fan...?
How is it these three words again? Upon hearing these three words, Ye Hai's body couldn't help but stiffen once more. Subconsciously, she turned her head to look in the direction those girls were pointing...
Across the emerald lake, a group of people stood on the lawn, seemingly visiting the school. And walking in front with the principal was none other than Lu Fei Fan!
He wore a silver-gray suit, tailored to perfection, with an air of nobility and elegance. His demeanor was relaxed, yet with a hint of arrogance. Ye Haicheng couldn't help but recall what the two girls had said earlier - that he had a face that every woman in the world wanted to sleep with... Although it was an exaggeration, it wasn't entirely unfounded either. Even standing there motionless, he exuded an aura of majesty.
Just at this moment! Lu Feifan seemed to have looked over, and his eyes met hers, those deep and profound eyes like the sea, as if a fascinating whirlpool, and one would be drawn in unintentionally.
Four eyes met, even across a lake, and she could feel a strong electric current striking her body. Ye Haicheng suddenly turned around, why was he inexplicably tense, his heartbeat accelerating, strange...
"Director Lu, this is our school's gymnasium. We can go in and take a look..." The vice principal was introducing with a smile on his face, but he noticed that Lu Fei seemed to be staring in a certain direction, so everyone followed Lu Fei's line of sight and looked over.
The principal looked across the lake and couldn't help but ask: "Director Lu, what are you looking at?"
Lu Fei's mouth slightly curved upwards as he gazed at the slender figure in the distance, his voice low and husky: "The beauty from my dreams, on the other side of the water."
On the opposite bank of the lake, Ye Haiying wore a white snowflake long dress, a pair of simple white canvas shoes, standing with her back to him, her gentle long hair reaching down to her waist, gently swaying in the wind behind her, like a beautiful photograph.
Listening to him, the principal looked towards the other side of the river again and finally fixed his gaze on Ye Haicheng's back, suddenly seeming to understand everything. He revealed a meaningful smile and replied: "Should we call her over? Her name is Ye Haicheng, and her grades are extremely excellent."
Originally, the school leaders were caught off guard by Sheng Jue Group's sudden funding and couldn't understand it. However, now it seems reasonable and perhaps in the future, they can even reserve a few spots for Sheng Jue Group every year.
Lu Fei withdrew his gaze, and his expression returned to its usual coldness. His voice was calm: "No need."
Her body was almost stiff, how could he stare at her like that? She was so embarrassed that she wanted to find a place to hide, but being stared at by him made her unable to move her feet. After a while, Lu Fei finally withdrew his gaze and went to visit other places with the principal. Only then did she let out a sigh of relief and relax completely, but soon she heard the gossiping voices of her former classmates passing by...
"That's Lu Feifan, indeed extraordinary and handsome!"
"A few days ago, that girl who had a scandal with him seems to be from our school. He wouldn't have invested because of her, would he?"
"It's possible! However, the photo is a bit blurry and I can't quite make out who the girl is. It's strange that there hasn't been any follow-up news in the past few days."
……
Ye Hai walked past them with her head hung low, because the person in the photo was her! How annoying... Just walking and bumped into the grade director again, what a narrow road of fate, just been criticized and bumped into the muzzle again.
"Sorry, sir, I didn't mean to," she apologized hastily, lest she be punished further.
The class teacher still had a stern face: "I know! How come you're always so careless when walking, next time you fall into the ditch and see how you handle it!"
She smiled awkwardly and wanted to escape, but was stopped by the grade director: "Stop, that one, the principal asked you to accompany Director Lu to visit the campus, hurry up."
"What! Why me!" Ye Hai Ning exclaimed, desperately trying to hide. The principal was now actually letting her deliver it herself? Who else couldn't do it, why did he have to choose her?!
The class director pointed in another direction with a bad tone: "What what what! Let you go then go! Hurry up!"
Ye Hai Ning wanted to say something, but as soon as he saw the director's expression, he gave up and reluctantly walked in the direction the director pointed, one step at a time.
Under the shade of trees on the small path.
Lu Fei walked alone on this quiet forest path, with rows of French plane trees on both sides of the road. From time to time, a few leaves fell slowly from the trees and lay quietly on the ground, as if enjoying the tranquility here.
