Chapter 14: 014 Miss Li

Author: You Yi Machine Translation

The two of them proposed their topic to Professor Chen Jiang and listened to his guidance. Although the professor was strict, he was a good tutor to have. After reviewing their topic and giving them general feedback, he let the two of them leave.

As they walked out of the office, they saw a gorgeous beauty walking in front of them in the corridor. She had white skin and red lips, big eyes and a perky nose. She had a slim waist and long legs. Her wine-red skirt spread out behind her lazily as she towards the two of them. The C family's dress pulled into a V-neck at her chest, and her calves were faintly discernible as she moved. She wore the Hua family's latest rivet shoes. From this close, she was even more stunning than she had first appeared.

The corners of her mouth curled up slightly, and she stared at Xiwan with a burning gaze. "What a coincidence, you actually chose a teacher." There was a faint trace of disdain between her brows.

Xiwan frowned slightly.

Had her previous self offended her?

Xiwan looked at Sun Huayu, who narrowed her eyes. "Li Yan, aren't you from the acting department?"

The Department of Acting was different from the Department of Broadcasting. The acting department's students were specially recruited art students, while the broadcasting department was a major undergraduate department. Professor Chen Jiang was famous for being strict, and the people who chose him were mostly top students from the broadcasting department. The performance department would never hire this professor as a teacher, which was why Sun Huayu asked this question.

"Who said someone from the performance department can't speak to professor Chen Jiang?" She smiled and then looked at Jiang Xiwan. "I heard a few days ago that Jiang Xiwan was hit in the head by a chandelier. Did you recover so quickly?"

"Thank you for your concern."

Li Yan pursed her lips at the delicate-looking Xiwan opposite her. She would not calm down. "Why isn't her face broken?"

Her hostility towards Jiang Xiwan was really natural, like an instinct. It had often been said that two female tigers can never live together on the same mountain because they are too competitive with each other.

It had started with the Campus Belle competition. Wherever Li Yan went, everyone paid attention to her. Even when she arrived at the acting department, which was known for its handsome men and beautiful women, she was still a beautiful flower. She still remembered that in the first semester of her freshman year, the school forum opened the annual Campus Belle competition, and she actually lost by one vote to Jiang Xiwan, the bookworm in the broadcasting department, known for being a straight-A student!

At that time, she was so angry that she tore her new dress. Later, after carefully studying the photos of the two of them, she remained unconvinced. When it came to the delicate degree of their facial features, she felt Jiang Xiwan could never compare with her, even if she did have a fairy-like appearance.

As a result, Li Yan often complained in her heart. She did not think that the pretentious fairy was any match for her.

Speaking of which, it was impossible to compare the two because they had completely different styles of beauty. If Li Yan was a huli jing, a fox spirit, then Jiang Xiwan was like Xuannü, the goddess of the Nine Heavens. Both of their facial features were exquisite and charming.

The school beauty pageant was one of the reasons why Li Yan hated Jiang Xiwan. The other reason was that Jiang Yi, from the computer science department, stated publicly that he wanted to pursue Jiang Xiwan.

Jiang Yi had been Li Yan's Prince Charming since she was young. If it wasn't for Jiang Yi coming to this school to study at university, she would have long gone overseas. In the end, her Prince Charming actually liked her arch-enemy!

Unbearable!

Fortunately, Jiang Xiwan was a total country bumpkin who worked part-time whenever she wasn't studying. She was nowhere to be seen on campus outside of class hours.

Li Yan was out of the country when she heard about the accident during the summer vacation. A classmate, who was also an intern at the television station, called her to tell her all about how Jiang Xiwan was at the celebration banquet for the Golden Age Awards when a crystal chandelier shattered over her head. The floor had been covered in blood and shards of crystal. She had almost died.

But there she was, on campus, alive and without a broken face.

Li Yan had heard that Jiang Xiwan was in the C5 teaching building when she was in the library, so she decided to check on the situation for herself. She had been wandering around near the corridor for a while when she heard that they were about to leave. Then she moved quickly and ran to the corner of the corridor so that she could walk towards them in an imposing manner. Finally, she said, "What a coincidence, you actually chose a mentor." Just like that, she had appeared.

After she had said it, she felt extremely regretful. She was not stupid, she knew was underachieving in her acting classes. How would she get King Yama as a mentor?

"Oh." When Xiwan heard Li Yan ask, "Why isn't your face broken?" she had only replied with one word.

Li Yan felt like she had punched into cotton. Her fair face was red and white, and looked exceptionally beautiful. In the end, she only snorted and said again, "I heard that you've been blacklisted by the television station."

"Oh," Xiwan repeated herself, then she looked at Li Yan with a faint smile. "And?"

It was Li Yan's first time seeing Jiang Xiwan like this. She was stunned for a moment, but then came back to her senses and said angrily, "Being blacklisted by the TV station is a very serious matter! Aren't you a broadcasting major? Don't you plan to be a host in the future?"

Xiwan looked at the little girl in front of her and couldn't help but smile. Sure enough, underneath this gorgeous beauty's so-called hostility, was just the little girl's sense of sisterhood.

"So?"

"So, you beg me... Yes, beg me, and I'll help you settle it!"

Sun Huayu knew that Li Yan was a fair, rich, and beautiful woman. Her family background was considered to be very superior. She heard that her family had a military and political background, and she knew that she didn't like Xiwan. But, seeing how she had spoken to Xiwan left Sun Huayu stunned for a moment.

Xiwan looked squarely at the little girl. "Okay, then I beg you to help me."

Li Yan's face instantly turned red, and she stammered her words as she spoke. "Y-y-you! You! How can you be so unambitious? How can you be so shameless? Just... Just say it!"

Xiwan raised her eyebrows and looked at her in amusement. "If you can solve my trouble then do it. Why should I beg you? Am I a fool that needs help making a decision, or was Miss Li just saying it for the satisfaction of her mouth?"

"Bah! It's just a phone call. Just you wait!" With that, the glamorous Miss Li Yan turned around and left in large strides down the corridor.

Xiwan and Sun Huayu looked at each other in dismay.
