Chapter 24: Chapter 24: An Accidental Kiss (Part 4)

Also, most importantly, Tang Yanqi believes love is something that shouldn’t add burdens to the other person.

Tang Yanqi is well aware of what the Tang Family is planning. Though young, years of training in the Tang Family have made reading people almost instinctual for her.

She carries too many shackles. Already suffocated by them, how could she bear to bring them to the person in her heart?

Perhaps everyone has the heart to love someone, but not everyone has the ability and courage to do so.

Tang Yanqi stood up and looked at the gymnasium across the way. Checking the time, she realized she had lingered in her dorm for a long time. It was almost ten now, surely that place was bustling, right?

Turning back, she glanced at the library. Aside from herself and a teacher on duty, it was completely empty.

Tang Yanqi smirked. Well, that was their world. Her task now was to handle her project properly. Unlike other university students, she also had two jobs and couldn’t afford to leave things to the last minute.

Composing herself, Tang Yanqi seriously started going through her seniors’ papers. She was a girl with exceptional self-discipline; when she decided to do something, she could always calm her mind.

After carefully studying two papers and organizing her notes, it was already noon. Tang Yanqi packed her things and headed to the cafeteria. At this time, the cafeteria was usually buzzing with people, but today only a few were scattered around as she found a corner to sit.

The student she tutored was a girl in her second year of high school. Due to health issues, she often couldn’t attend school, relying mostly on private tutoring.

The girl’s home wasn’t far from K University, so Tang Yanqi had ample time to eat slowly.

As she was about to finish her meal, the cafeteria started filling up. It was evident that the lecture had just ended, and large groups of people were coming in together.

Returning the tray to the cart, Tang Yanqi shouldered her backpack and headed to the back gate to catch the bus.

Meanwhile, the school leaders accompanied Sheng Jianan out of the gymnasium through a side door. Respectfully, the school leaders wanted to invite Sheng Jianan for lunch, but before he could respond, Qiao Zi said in a formal tone, "Thank you, Principal Zhou, for the invitation, but Mr. Sheng has a meeting later and cannot be delayed."

Sheng Jianan maintained close ties with K University, largely thanks to Qiao Zi’s coordination. In fact, Qiao Zi was even more familiar with the school leaders than Sheng Jianan.

Hearing this, Principal Zhou and his entourage didn’t insist further, "We won’t delay Mr. Sheng then. Hope we can collaborate again next time."

"You’re too kind!"

Politely declining the school’s escort, Sheng Jianan and Qiao Zi headed down a path towards the school’s back gate. After just a few steps, Qiao Zi suddenly reached out and tugged on his sleeve.

Qiao Zi, as Sheng Jianan’s special assistant, had undergone rigorous and professional training, and such an inappropriate action was entirely out of character.

Sheng Jianan turned and frowned. Qiao Zi quickly retracted her hand, pointing in the distance, "President, isn’t that... Young Madam over there?"

As Sheng Jianan’s assistant, Qiao Zi was the only person from Shengshi Group to attend Tang Yanqi and Sheng Jianan’s wedding. Her impression of Young Madam was vivid, especially because of the iconic remark Tang Yanqi made to the makeup artist—"Why don’t you just mask me with all that foundation?"
