Chapter 197: 196. Premiered on New Year’s Eve

Sure, here’s the translation:

She was even more so hailed as the latest campus beauty.

However, the impact of her photographs and her presence in person were completely different.

The current Tang Shu, with her exquisite features and temperament, surpassed what could be captured in photos.

As Du An was still appreciating her beauty, a sharp pain came from the hand he held with his fiancée, pulling him back to reality.

Xu Qianyu stood still, her expression carrying a hint of surprise.

Encountering Tang Shu here was something she was utterly unprepared for.

Or perhaps, Xu Qianyu had long forgotten about her existence.

It was not until she noticed the title "Herbology" on the textbook in the real owner’s hand that she suddenly remembered not only was she a celebrity, but also a student at Medical University.

Xu Qianyu, upon seeing an acquaintance, did not speak, and merely nodded at the other person.

Tang Shu glanced at the intertwined hands of the two, and remembering what her mother had once mentioned, she immediately understood the man’s identity.

She, therefore, nodded back as a polite gesture, acknowledging the greeting.

Having exchanged only a few words, and seemingly with more to say, Tang Shu checked the time on her phone and promptly stood up, intending to vacate the place.

Before long, that wisp of a white figure had disappeared from their sight.

Du An withdrew his gaze and turned to his companion, "This... Is this Aunt Lin’s daughter?"

Why does she seem different from how she’s described on the campus network?

Moreover, they hadn’t exchanged more than a greeting with a nod before she left?

It was understandable for Qianyu, given her temperament, but the girl’s indifferent response was particularly thought-provoking and puzzling.

"Mm."

Xu Qianyu responded dully, seemingly reluctant to discuss the matter further.

Seeing this, Du An did not press on, a thoughtful look flickering in his eyes.

The winter holiday was fast approaching.

Amidst everybody’s eager anticipation, "Heroes in Troubled Times" finally brought some good news.

[#Heroes in Troubled Times# High spirits in the heavens, who dares to contend with me? Heroes rise together, vying for the world! On New Year’s Eve, join me in experiencing the grandeur of mountains and rivers! Picture, JPG.]

...

Many people took notice of the very eye-catching poster below the Weibo text.

At the top of the poster, "Heroes in Troubled Times" was written in magnificent brushstrokes, conveying a sense of artistry, and below were three main actors dressed in entirely different costumes.

One carried the air of a scholar with a book in hand; another was clad in armor, exuding a powerful aura; and someone else stood atop Beacon Tower, pointing over the landscape.

Each one’s gaze was intense, filled with an inherent commanding presence, as if tangible, making just a poster enough to stir up the viewers’ blood.​
