Chapter 23 - School Grass’ Special Pet – 23 (2/2)

“A Yuan? I have good news, but I’ll tell you when it’s finalized.” She decided to wait until the final results were reported or she would have been happy in vain.

“By the way, why didn’t you come to class today?”

On the other side, Gao Yuan was silent for a long time, listening to her voice. Bai Xun frowned, “A Yuan?”

“Yeah.” Gao Yuan’s voice responded a bit astringent. “Xiao Xun, do you believe me?”

“Why would you suddenly ask such a question?” Bai Xun was puzzled, but quickly replied. “Of course, I believe you.”

“That’s good.”

There was a sigh of relief, as if determined, with a relaxed voice, “Xiao Xun, wait until I come back in the evening.”

Gao Yuan finished talking and hung up.

Bai Xun had a bad hunch in her heart. In the past, because the affection doesn’t drop once maxed, she didn’t maintain the other’s blackening value and was more concerned about covering herself from being exposed.1

But this time, Gao Yuan won’t do anything stupid, right?

……

In the spacious and bright office, several people in the design department were evaluating the final paintings.

On the other side of the sofa, Huang Yanran looked at Su Shi and smiled. “With Su Shi’s help, the competition went smoothly. Thank you very much.”

She is the only daughter of the Huang family and was gradually involved with her company’s affairs. This competition is sponsored by her.

Su Shi’s gentle look was a bit melancholy and didn’t really want to speak.

Huang Yanran didn’t say anything else and saw the head of the design department bringing a submission over, “Director, we selected the first prize winner, look.”

Huang Yanran took the submission carelessly, but her eyes eventually fell on the name.

Her eyes flashed and she didn’t ask Su Shi’s opinion, but lightly said. “I don’t think this painting is suitable.”

The designer hesitated for a few moments and took the submission. “There are also two more good ones, I will show it to you.”

Su Shi originally had a dull expression but glanced at the submission’s name from the corner of his eye and stood up.

“Show me.” He reached for it.

He looked at the submission then at Huang Yanran and left without saying a word.

“Director? This…”

“Let him go.” Huang Yanran waved her hand, remained silent for a long time, and laughed twice. “You are really… great…”

……

Bai Xun was absent-minded all morning until Su Shi came to see her.

“Senior?” She was a little surprised.

Su Shi handed the painting in his hand to her.

“This is…” Bai Xun took a look and confirmed that he had delivered the submitted draft for the contest. She bit her teeth and said, “Why is it here with senior?”

Su Shi didn’t answer directly, but gently said: “There are some things that can’t be successful without strength.”

Bai Xun understood, and her face was pale and dejected and sat down.

Su Shi went to her and squatted, his voice was soft and helpless. “I said, if you have any difficulties, you can come to me.”

Bai Xun reluctantly smiled. “There is no need to bother senior, A Yuan said that he has a way, I…”

Su Shi interrupted her with his faint look. “I know, I heard that he’s looking for a job everywhere, but there is no place that will take his resume. He’s also trying to borrow money everywhere, but no one dares to lend it to him.”

Bai Xun opened her mouth, she couldn’t imagine how such a proud man could bend his heart to borrow money and endure such a thing.

Su Shi added, “If he wants money, there are only abnormal means.”

“Abnormal means?” Bai Xun’s heart pounded, her face changed dramatically and shook her head. “No, no.”

Su Shi sighed, “Xiao Xun…”

Just then, a ringtone sounded –

Bai Xun’s phone rang, it was a high-end mobile phone.

She hurriedly picked it up.

“Is this Bai Xun? Gao Yuan had an accident and is now at the hospital, come over soon.”

From over there, the voice rushed to urgently inform her the address. Bai Xun only felt her vision blackened and almost couldn’t breathe in her panic.

Su Shi frowned and held her up worriedly. “What happened?”

Bai Xun’s lips trembled, “A Yuan… is in the hospital…”
