The next day, Xia Yangyang went to school as usual.
Everything seemed no different than usual.
Only Xia Yangyang knew that Gong Xue’er had taken half a month’s leave.
It was half a month later when she saw Gong Xue’er again———————-
That day, the president of the news society called for a meeting, which all members of the news society were required to attend.
Upon reaching, Xia Yangyang saw Gong Xue’er.
Gong Xue’er looked radiant, full of life, laughing and chatting with the other members of the news society.
When Xia Yangyang walked in, Gong Xue’er glanced over, her gaze clear yet proud.
Xia Yangyang found a spot and sat down casually.
At this point, Society President Xu Li stepped up and began to speak: “I have gathered you all here today to announce a major decision. As I am about to graduate, I can no longer continue in my position as the society president. Before I leave, I wish to hand over the president’s position to a capable and responsible individual. Currently, I have two candidates in mind, Gong Xue’er, our vice president, has been diligent and responsible in her role since taking it up. Meanwhile, Xia Yangyang impressed us all by securing an exclusive interview with Gu Qichen, which brought fame to our news society. I have decided that the next president will be chosen from these two. For the sake of fairness, we will have an anonymous vote.”
Xia Yangyang did not expect that today’s meeting was about electing a new president.
Xia Yangyang loved journalism and the news society, but she didn’t want to work with Gong Xue’er.
She couldn’t fight her, but she could avoid her.
Xia Yangyang raised her hand and said, “President, I abstain.”
But almost simultaneously, the same words came from Gong Xue’er’s mouth.
Everyone looked at them in surprise.
Xia Yangyang and Gong Xue’er exchanged a glance.
Xu Li frowned and asked, “What’s going on with you two? The news society is one of the four major organizations at A University. Even when you enter society in the future, holding a position in it is a valuable asset. Vice President, can you explain why you want to abstain?”
Gong Xue’er said, “I’m really sorry, but I’m going to study abroad soon, along with my fiance. Therefore, I don’t think I’m capable of assuming this position anymore.”
With Gong Xue’er’s words, the news society erupted into chaos.
“Xue’er, is your fiance by any chance Young Master Lu who picked you up last time?”
“Xue’er, you truly live up to being the daughter of the distinguished family. With wealth comes freedom. The way you can just decide to study abroad is envy-inducing.”
“Xue’er, congratulations! When will you get engaged?”
Gong Xue’er laughed softly, took out a stack of exquisite invitations from her bag,
Handed them one by one to the other members of the news society, and said with a smile, “I’ll hold a betrothal banquet at the Caesar International Hotel in three days. You must come.”
Everyone held the invitation, full of excitement.
“Isn’t Caesar Hotel only reserved for foreign heads of state? Oh my god, Xue’er, you can actually have your engagement there?”
“Our Xue’er is indeed a princess in real life. The Lu Family is one of the top distinguished families here in Feng City. The engagement will surely be grand.”
But Xia Yangyang stood still, until Gong Xue’er walked over to her.
Gong Xue’er gave her the last invitation: “Yangyang, you must come as well. After all, I owe my engagement with Lu Haotian to you.”
Someone commented from the side: “Yangyang, so you were the matchmaker for Xue’er and Young Master Lu.”
As Xia Yangyang looked at the person in front of her, she felt her spine stiffen, and a chill came up from her heart,
How can she stand in front of her so nonchalantly? Even a vicious tiger does not eat its cubs, yet Gong Xue’er used her own child to secure her marriage into a wealthy family.
Xia Yangyang felt terrified..
