nYu Heng met Qiao Lian’s intimidating gaze. The tension between the two made the vice chancellor and university leaders behind Yu Heng nervous.

nThe thin-haired vice chancellor hurriedly tried to smooth things over. “Mr. Qiao, Professor Yu, so you two know each other, haha… Why don’t we have the university host a dinner between the two of you? If there’s any misunderstanding, we can clear it up at the dining table…”

nQiao Lian shook the milk tea in his hand and said slowly, “You’re being too serious. There’s no misunderstanding. I just want to help the girl who is being persecuted by her family.”

n“Mr. Qiao must be joking. How could that be possible?” The vice chancellor awkwardly wiped the sweat from his brow.

n“Why would Miss Yu be persecuted by her family? Professor Yu is very protective of her. He even accepted the university’s invitation to become a visiting professor for her sake. He will be conducting a long series of lectures and carry out an academic exchange at the university.”

nYu Yao, who had just been sipping her milk tea, choked and couldn’t help but cough repeatedly. “Ach, ahem…”

nYu Heng naturally reached out and patted her back gently, just like a good brother who doted on his younger sister would. “How old are you? Choking on milk tea…”

nYu Yao looked at Yu Heng in horror. She couldn’t help but want to say, “Who are you? Wake up!”

nHer dazed look was a little cute. Yu Heng could not help but pat her head affectionately and he humbly said to the university leaders, “My sister has an innocent personality. As family members, it’s inevitable that we have some blind spots. I hope the university leaders can forgive us.”

n“Not at all, not at all. Yu Yao lives up to be your younger sister, Professor Yu.” The vice chancellor praised her immediately. “Students nowadays are getting more and more impetuous, but Yu Yao is different from those reckless youths. She is a rare good student.”

nThe counselor quickly agreed, “That’s right, Yu Yao is the most hardworking and serious student in the entire course. I think this year’s scholarship will definitely go to her.”

nThis praise was too ridiculous. Even though Yu Yao was quite thick-skinned, she still felt extremely embarrassed by it.

n“Sirs, you flatter me. Compared to the other students, I’m not considered outstanding.”

nYu Heng also said reservedly, “She’s just a child; she shouldn’t be praised too much. There’s no need for you teachers to be so polite.”

nAs a result, the two sides began to pretend to be polite. This whole scene made Yu Yao feel very uncomfortable.

nAt this moment, another group of university leaders surrounded them. This group of people was obviously more influential than the previous one. Behind the leading man were the chancellor and a few respected old professors, but this man immediately became respectful the moment he saw Qiao Lian.

n“Sir, we have reached a preliminary agreement with the university.”

nEven though he was holding a cup of milk tea in his hand, Qiao Lian’s superior aura was hard to ignore.

nHe nodded. “You did well. Let the lawyer draw up an investment contract.”

nAs soon as he said this, the chancellor and several old professors became visibly excited.

nThe chancellor said with a radiant smile, “Thank you, Mr. Qiao, for choosing our university’s research team. We have the best talents around. Mr. Qiao, you have a discerning eye and I believe that it will be a win-win opportunity for both of us.”

nQiao Lian’s assistant, Ding Yi, discovered that his boss, who had been too lazy to even meet the university leaders when discussing the investment, was now politely chatting with the chancellor.

n“After all, I’ve been in contact with a student from your university. I can understand your university’s style and academic ability based on her. Therefore, I trusted and had a good impression of your university before we even talked about the cooperation.”

nThe chancellor was keenly aware of the information contained in these words. He also noticed the only girl in this group who could possibly be a student.

nAlthough he did not know who this girl was and what her relationship with Mr. Qiao was, he had already confirmed that this beautiful, cute girl would be the representative of their university’s outstanding students from now on!

nRegardless of whether it was the university’s leaders or the professors, they all smiled kindly at Yu Yao. However, Yu Yao could feel a drop of cold sweat dripping down her back.

nAfter attracting the attention of so many university leaders and professors, would she not be able to skip classes in the future? Heavens, what was the point of a university life like that?

nYu Heng silently held his breath. He felt that Qiao Lian was an eyesore no matter how he looked at him!

nHearing those words, it was obvious that he was thinking of ways to get into a relationship with Yu Yao. In the future, if they need Qiao Lian to attend any event as an investor, those university leaders would definitely arrange for Yu Yao to be involved. Isn’t this indirectly putting the two of them together?

nYu Heng thought to himself that Qiao Lian was indeed a sinister and cunning person.. It seemed that he would have to guard against him from now on and prevent him from abducting his sister!
