Gold Medal Sweetheart

Chapter 39 My Little Heart

After a while, Anqi calmed down her slightly excited mood and began to pay attention to someone around her who seemed very abnormal.

Tang Xin looked at An Qi, who was confused about the situation. She hid behind her notebook, winked at An Qi, and whispered, "Just do what you need to do. Don't look at me. Look ahead."

Seeing Tang Xin's thief-like appearance, An Qi was completely confused by her. Not knowing Tang Xin's intentions, she continued to ask, "What's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?"

"I'm fine. Please, don't look at me!" As she spoke, she unconsciously raised her voice a little, fearing that Anqi couldn't hear her in the lively discussion in the meeting room.

As a result, a scene that no one expected occurred in the entire conference room.

The meeting room gradually quieted down, and everyone was about to focus on the new boss's speech when a slightly flustered female voice broke through. "Please, don't look at me!" This perfectly accentuated the gradually falling silence, and achieved an unexpected effect: every head in the room turned to look at Tang Xin, huddled in the corner. The principal glared sharply, disapprovingly, at someone who seemed to be deliberately disrupting the situation. Even Jiaojiao, sitting in the front row, frowned slightly, glancing back at Tang Xin, who was huddled a distance away behind a notebook. Seeing Tang Xin huddled in a corner, looking unpresentable, she shook her head dismissively, her lips curled up—"This is unrefined!" Only Jin Taize calmly glanced at the eye-catching spot, but then quickly averted his gaze, briefly pretending nothing had happened.

Tang Xin, the disruptor of the meeting, was startled by her own voice and the sudden silence. She quickly covered her mouth with a hand, her face flushing red. How could this happen? She had been planning to lie low for a while, but she had been exposed so easily. She exclaimed inwardly, "What a massive social demise!" How could everyone be so in sync? How could they all fall silent, as if by agreement? Was she the only one who was out of step? What was going on? After confirming that she was incompatible with the five elements of the surname Jin, little Tang Tang couldn't help but feel inwardly overwhelmed... Why was she always the one being incompatible?

"First of all, I would like to thank Principal Wang and all my colleagues for welcoming me." Jin Taize's slow and calm voice drew everyone's attention back.

"I acquired our school from Mr. Zhang for many reasons. But I believe there are two most important reasons," Jin Taize continued methodically. The audience listened intently, their eyes fixed on him. Therefore, only one person's unusual behavior seemed out of place in the room. However, Jin Taize didn't seem to notice the strange person in the corner of the room, remaining focused on his speech.

"First, although I'm a businessman, I've always yearned for a career in education. I believe it's a sacred cause that influences and shapes people, and I hope to do my best to contribute to education. Second, because I'm a businessman, after learning about our school's history and analyzing its prospects, I believe our school has great potential to become one of the nation's leading private schools. So..."

Tang Xin had no intention of listening to Jin Taize's speech at the conference. Although she was in the conference hall, her heart had already grown two small wings and flew away. Jin Taize's voice was getting more and more vague and ethereal. Why did this "male pervert" come here? Was he here to question her why she refused to answer his call? Was he here to fulfill the unilateral promise of "I'll wait for you"? She thought hard in her little head. Buying a school is not a matter of 10,000 or 20,000 yuan. Isn't it a bit too much for such a trivial matter? No, it shouldn't be these two reasons? Why is that? Could it be that, as he said, he came here to do something for the education cause and to shape "perversion" and influence "perversion"? This reason didn't seem to make sense. What was the reason?

After much contemplation, she still had no results. Then, enthusiastic applause erupted from the conference hall. Her consciousness was summoned back from the nine heavens by this surging sound.

"It's a rare opportunity and a great honor to work with you all. I hope you will support and assist me in my future endeavors. Let us work together to build our school into a respected institution in society, a role model for our peers, and a benchmark within the industry." Jin Taize's voice was steady, his words slow but powerful. His expression was firm and distant, and he nodded slightly to signal the end of his remarks.

Principal Wang was the first to applaud, and everyone, led by Principal Wang, once again burst into prolonged applause.

The crowd is really excited! This should be the end, right?

Guessing Jin Taize was about to leave, Tang Xin took the opportunity to tilt her head slightly from behind her notebook—a little more, slowly peeking half of her head out from behind the notebook, looking toward the podium. Unexpectedly, Jin Taize, who was about to leave the stage, suddenly stopped, as if sensing something, and his lightning-fast eyes shot directly in her direction. As she glanced, she bumped into Jin Taize's gaze, theirs meeting directly. She couldn't help but shudder.

The winged little heart, ever soaring through the heavens, suddenly slammed into an obstacle. No matter how it dodged, it couldn't fly. Foolishly, it raised its head, a nagging expression on its face as it gazed up at the obnoxious figure blocking its path. Unfortunately, the obstacle turned out to be the legendary heart-catcher. Though not ferocious or brutal, he possessed a captivatingly handsome demeanor. Blocked, it tried to show off its power by putting its hands on its hips and stamping its feet. However, facing a predator, the wisest course of action was to flee. Just as it was about to turn around and change course, a swift grab was made by the wing, immobilizing it. Chirping and resisting for a long time, it was finally dragged before the hunter, who watched its movements with fascination. This sight frightened it, and it suddenly became timid, its mouth closed, and it stared at the hunter with a pitiful gaze.

He just smiled mischievously, "Stop making trouble?"

Seeing it just staring at him blankly, looking aggrieved, the hunter suddenly stroked its head gently, saying in a calming tone, "Then come home with me."

For a moment, it felt that he had a little warmth...
