“Boyue, can you help me get Chairman Qin’s autograph?” a classmate said with a longing expression. “Chairman Qin is the president of the Chinese Arts Association and a highly esteemed figure among the prestigious families in Hua City. I don’t think I’ll ever have a chance to get close to him in my lifetime.”

“Don’t say that,” Qiao Boyue reassured with a smile. “It’s just an autograph, right? I’ll get one for you tonight.” As she said that, Qiao Boyue couldn’t help but glance at Shen Jing.

Shen Jing was still looking at her phone, her face showing a hint of distress. The old man had personally sent her a message: “I’ve come to Jingcheng in person. Isn’t it unreasonable for you to not see me? I’ve booked a private room. You must come tonight.”

Shen Jing replied slowly, “Didn’t you make plans with someone else?”

Chairman Qin responded, “Who told you that? I came to Jingcheng specifically to see you. Why would I make plans with someone else? So you think you have finally grown up and don’t even want your master anymore?”

Just from the tone, Shen Jing could imagine the old man’s annoyed expression. She didn’t know whether to laugh or cry and could only reply, “Alright, alright, I promise to be there on time.”

Chairman Qin snorted, temporarily letting Shen Jing off the hook.

…

After class, Shen Jing first went to the principal’s office. Principal Liu looked at her expressionlessly. “What are you here for again? Did you cause trouble?”

“I’m here to deliver medicine to you,” Shen Jing said as she took out the prepared medicine from her bag and handed it to Principal Liu. “I know you’re not in good health, having accumulated various ailments from years of hard work. Coincidentally, I know a renowned doctor who prescribed this medicine. If you follow the instructions and take it, I guarantee you’ll become healthier, and even your hair might start growing back.”

Principal Liu touched his gradually receding hairline, feeling a twinge of pain. He didn’t expect Shen Jing to become so considerate and even know to bring him medicine. Regardless of whether it would be effective or not, it made him feel at ease. He coughed and looked at Shen Jing. “I heard that you’ve signed up for Chinese Arts for the art festival? And you’ll be giving a bilingual speech at the opening ceremony?”

Shen Jing nodded.

“Not bad,” Principal Liu praised. At least Shen Jing was starting to take things seriously. He asked, “Do you like Chinese painting? Coincidentally, I’ve had a few encounters with Chairman Qin from the National Association. If you’re interested in learning Chinese painting, I can introduce you to him.”

“No need, no need. I’m just average when it comes to Chinese painting. I won’t trouble you,” Shen Jing shook her head, feeling hesitant to mention that she had known Chairman Qin for a long time. Besides, even if she did tell Principal Liu, he might not believe her.

“There’s one more thing,” Principal Liu recalled the previous matter and asked sternly, “What’s going on between you and Fu Linyuan? Why did you two suddenly register your marriage? Did he force you?” These past few days, Principal Liu had trouble sleeping because of this matter. Every time he closed his eyes, he would think about Fu Linyuan and Shen Jing. The situation at the Fu family was far from peaceful, especially with Old Master Fu’s deteriorating health in recent years. The Miracle Doctor Jiu Yao still hadn’t been found. Once Old Master Fu passed away, the situation would become even more challenging for Fu Linyuan. That’s why Principal Liu couldn’t understand why Shen Jing chose to be with Fu Linyuan.

“Shen Jing, tell me the truth. Did Fu Linyuan force you?” When Shen Jing remained silent, Principal Liu thought he had guessed correctly. He slammed the table. “Don’t worry, if he truly forced you, I’ll help you get a divorce right away!”

“No, no…” Shen Jing quickly stopped him, scratching her head. “The situation between me and Fu Linyuan is complicated. Anyway, it’s like this now. You don’t need to worry. I have everything under control.” In terms of liking, she doesn’t have much affection for Fu Linyuan. In their past life, their relationship wasn’t very good, and she never had any feelings for him. In this lifetime, she has married him and they have obtained a marriage certificate, which is a done deal. It might be out of guilt from their past life that she wants to live a good life with him, but living a good life doesn’t necessarily mean liking him… Anyway, her emotions are quite complicated, and it would take a while to explain.

Principal Liu knew that Shen Jing was a determined person. Hearing her response, he didn’t press further. Moreover, his identity didn’t allow him to inquire too much. As long as he knew Shen Jing didn’t suffer any grievances, it was enough. “Your grandfather and uncle will only be back in more than two months. During this time, if you have any problems, come find me. Also, it’s better to keep your marriage with Fu Linyuan a secret for now and not announce it.”

Principal Liu genuinely wanted the best for Shen Jing. Even if they were married, so what? Shen Jing is still young, and they could find an opportunity to divorce!
