"Alright." Yu Bao quickly changed direction and took Hua Xiaomo to the Florence Academy of Fine Arts.
Hua Xiaomo got out of the car, carrying her backpack and drawing board into the academy. She glanced back to make sure Yu Bao hadn’t followed her, then quickly passed through the numerous academic buildings and tree-lined paths before swiftly exiting through the academy’s side gate.
Upon arriving at the McDonald’s in Ouhong Shopping Mall right on time, Hua Xiaomo immediately spotted the manager standing at the counter.
"Manager, I’m sorry I’m a bit late," Hua Xiaomo said to the strikingly handsome, mixed-race manager, a hint of apology in her voice.
His skin was incredibly fair, his eyes deeply set and shimmering with a hint of blue, quite stunning.
"Xiao Mo, I thought you weren’t going to come!" Zhou Xiyang laughed, revealing a set of bright white teeth.
Hua Xiaomo chuckled, then quickly ducked into the back of the store, changed into her uniform, put on her cap, and said, "I’m ready to work."
"Okay, hang in there!" Zhou Xiyang nodded at her. Newest update provıded by 𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙡~𝙛𝙞𝙧𝙚~𝙣𝙚𝙩
Just when the day seemed to be progressing as smoothly as the one before, a slight mishap occurred as noon approached.
A strikingly handsome man in an impeccable suit and sunglasses, accompanied by Yu Bao, arrived at the Florence Academy of Fine Arts.
"Wow, look, look! Such a handsome guy!"
"He looks like a celebrity!"
"Absolutely dashing!"
"I wish he were my boyfriend!"
As soon as Qi Longbing entered the campus, he immediately caused quite a commotion. Countless adoring young girls and refined young women stared, their eyes turning into hearts, their own hearts pounding with excitement.
Of course, there were also plenty of envious, jealous, and resentful expressions on the faces of numerous male students.
And some male students with unconventional tastes found themselves inexplicably swallowing hard. An absolute paragon of handsome masculinity, with the complete aura of a star!
Indeed, this kind of handsome man was on an entirely different level compared to their school’s heartthrob.
This was the quintessential ’Diamond Bachelor’—a successful man with status, intellect, and a prominent position in society!
A man many dreamed of, a precious catch so desirable yet so elusive!
Qi Longbing, oblivious to the gazes thrown his way, continued walking forward with his hands in his suit pockets, weaving past one academic building after another.
Along the way, Yu Bao didn’t dare make a sound, noticing his boss’s expression growing increasingly dark. He couldn’t help feeling this was the calm before the storm.
"Which building... do you think she’s attending classes in?" Qi Longbing’s voice carried a thread of danger.
"Well..." Yu Bao hesitated. They had already checked Hua Xiaomo’s original classroom, only to find it completely empty; everyone had long since gone.
"To the principal’s office." The words left Qi Longbing’s lips, cold and sharp.
Upon reaching the principal’s office and inquiring with the dean, they learned that with graduation approaching, all classes had concluded. Students only needed to submit their internship reports in six months to receive their diplomas.
As for where Hua Xiaomo had gone, even the principal was at a loss.
However, Qi Longbing’s visit wasn’t merely for simple inquiries; he also took the opportunity to handle a significant matter for her—something she couldn’t possibly have imagined.
"Principal Wang, since there are no classes left, and her academic performance is outstanding, having met all graduation requirements, please trouble yourself to give me Hua Xiaomo’s diploma as well," Qi Longbing’s sensuous thin lips curved up as he spoke in a bland yet commanding tone, his expression holding a hint of pure, almost angelic weariness.
Although it was phrased as a conversation, the aura that emanated from him was clearly an order that could not be defied.
