Chapter 21 - Encounter

When Sun Leilei saw Li Guang, her eyes twinkle with delight. Then, she goes over to Li Guang at once, abandoning the other two men.

“Guru, you are also here. You don’t know me. Let me introduce myself first. My name is Sun Leilei, a fresh coming from Performing Department. I heard that there is a Guru in Directing Department when I arrived. You have overwhelmed to all the people in Performing Department in appearance, and your unparalleled appearance has been ranking the top for four years in the college. You were awarded for the document you made at sophomore year. I finally get a chance to see you today. You are really a Guru. You are quite different. Guru, why you are so handsome? Are you a mixed-blood? Are you…”

Li Guang frowns acidly.

Chen Chusheng winkles to Song Lin. Song Lin rushes to Sun Leilei hurriedly and grabs her, who is just like a house running out of swing, “Sun, upperclassman Li likes to be quiet. You are too zesty, which may scare him.”

Sun Leilei may also know that she was rude just now. Having cleared her throat, she goes to sit on the chair, with a lady’s elegant steps, “Well, I was too excited. Actually, I also like to be quiet. I am a quiet girl.”

Gu Yanxi tries not to laugh out. Sun Leilei is a good laugh, heartless. But it is quite easy to get along with a girl without scheming.

All the people sit down, with ten chairs occupied by eight people. The chairs next to Li Guang are empty, as if a world was isolated automatically.

Except Li Guang, the others introduce themselves. For the other two men, one is called Song Lei and the other is Li Mu. All of them are the secretaries of Student Union. The two are not from Directing Department, but Special Effect Department and Recording Department.

Gu Yanxi gets it after a while. This is a cerebration dinner for Chen Chusheng and Song Jia to establish their romantic relationship formally.

Song Jia, as a professional dancer, was stuck fatally undoubtedly, due to her leg injury. Nevertheless, she fought bravely against the injury with her optimistic life attitude. Having heard Song Jia’s story, Chen Chusheng took it as a subject worthy of photographing. Therefore, Chen Chusheng made documentaries for her for almost a year. And then Song Jia fell in love with this man unconsciously. After the recovery, she enrolled Directing Department also, because of Chen Chusheng.

“What a touching and inspirational romance film!”Gu Yanxi, seeing the two flirt with each other now and then, wishs them a happing ending sincerely.

Gu Yanxi, having tasted to be spoiled like a princess, knows clearly the taste of being thrown to the valley. Therefore, she prefers peaceful and simple love like this. Not a resounding love, but long-lasting love, just an expression is sweet enough.

Gu Yanxi seldom speaks during this meal, and she is mean to eat here, while Li Guang speaks less. Li Guang and Gu Yanxi sit face-to-face, with their eyesight meeting occasionally, and they just smile to each other, as if the “Morning”greeting had never existed in the morning jog.

After the dinner, Song Lei coordinates them to the KTV next to the restaurant. Sun Leilei responds to him positively, forgetting that she said she was a quiet girl. Li Guang is silent without a word. Luo Meijuan comes to invite Gu Yanxi, but Gu Yanxi smiles, “You go to have fun. I need to go back to the dorm. If you play too late, I can unlock the door secretly for you.”

Song Lin comes to invite Gu Yanxi, but Gu Yanxi refused. Everyone goes back to the dorm after having fun.

Gu Yanxi likes singing, but she’d better avoid joining a party with boys like this, if it ends too late. She is a woman having been married; even though other people have no idea of this, she knows it clearly. Although Huo Yichen wants to humiliate her or to relieve his feelings, she has her own bottom line and principle.

The hot pot restaurant is not far away with her college. The lamps on both sides of the road elongate her solitary figure on the street.

At the college entrance, Gu Yanxi gets a phone. Having seen that it is from the detective agency, she answers the phone at once.

“Hun, OK, I see. Thanks! Please continue your investigation. I will pay later, no matter how many months.”

Gu Yanxi hangs up, with a thrill. After twenty days’investigation, The detective agency finally finds some news and clues. Even though she has rare information, at least she can prove that her guess is right.

“Gu Yanxi.”A whisper comes behind her.

“Ah!”Gu Yanxi is frightened, and she turns round by instinct. Seeing that it is Li Guang, she gets embarrassed immediately, “Upperclassman.”

“Well…No, no.”Gu Yanxi stabilizes her voice, “Upperclassman, why didn’t you go singing?”

“I can’t sing.”Li Guang replies to her simply, with one of his hands in his trouser pockets.

Li Guang, a Guru as he is, is well known in the college. If he can sing a Forget Love Potion in the KTV, maybe he can fall from the heaven to the troubled time. Gu Yanxi thinks that Li Guang doesn’t want to sing, rather than “can’t”.

“Upperclassman, what’s up? If no, I need to go.”Gu Yanxi speaks in a low voice, glancing at the college gate at hand.

Li Guang replies coldly, “No.”

“Bye-bye.”Gu Yanxi smiles, as she turns round. Gu Yanxi disappears, with her back bending straight and her ponytail swinging.

Li Guang stands under the lamp for quite a while, and then walks inside the college leisurely.

A black car is hidden in the night at the roadside not far away. No light can be found in the car, as if it did not exist at all.

“Mister, that guy is called Li Guang, an aristocratic from Jingzhou, with deep background. This time, it should be an encounter for Madam and Li Guang.”

Huo Yichen’s eyes are brimming over with gloom. Encounter? Are there many encounters in the world?

Geng Chao cannot guess Mister’s thoughts. He doesn’t know why Mister leaves the company late and bypasses to buy a beggar’s chicken on this street out of his way. And then they saw that Madam was speaking with a man by accident.

There is no need to think about it. Mister must be angry now. Even though he hardly goes back home and has many scandals outside. he cares about Madam very much.

“Let’s go.”Huo Yichen says grimly.

Geng Chao starts the car in haste and then drives towards Yulin Villa.

The next day, Gu Yanxi goes back to the dorm after jogging, and she hears a wail while entering room, “OMG, my male god Huo changes his lover again. He is too sappy. He just forced-out Shen Jun several days before, and now he has a crush on a young model.’

Gu Yanxi knows that the male god of Sun Leilei is Huo Yichen. After all, all the students in Perform Department pay attention to the bosses of various culture and entertainment companies.

Gu Yanxi, pretending that she didn’t hear what Sun Leilei just said, goes to her bed, with calm looks on her face. It is really fast – he seemed to be with Shen Jun yesterday, but he is in the news with a young model today. Huo Yichen, under that circumstance, has no need to spend time or use efforts to seek for lovers. Numerous women throw themselves on him.

“Gu, I heard that Huo Yichen has a new girl friend. Why you are not excited?”Sun Leilei, wearing a pajama with lotus-leaf edge, sits on the bed to talk about gossip while eating chips.
