While browsing the web, Su Yuan accidentally discovered a "topic" about herself. She was slightly taken aback at the time, clicked into it, and found that the discussion thread had already reached over six hundred floors.
There was one thing she had to admit: the photographer was very skilled. The angle and quality of the photo were on a completely different level from the one that had previously made it to the "topic."
If the previous photo was meant to spread a rumor, then this one was a masterpiece that captured a moment of profound beauty in real life.
If she guessed correctly, the photographer must have had a strong foundation in photography and managed to capture the moment when Su Yuan and Su Caiwei got out of the car. It must have been a photography enthusiast who always carried a DSLR camera.
Looking at the various opinions in the thread, Su Yuan, who had made it to the internet "topic" for the second time, felt a bit annoyed. Why was it always her? Although the motive this time was to praise her, posting it online without her consent made it hard for her to stay low-key.
When Ji Yehao and Gao Jun returned, Su Yuan had already finished browsing through all the content of the six hundred floors. She took a deep breath and thought to herself that while there were indeed troublemakers, the eyes of the general public were still sharp.
Thanks to the photographer's skill, most of the comments were praise and support, although there were also some with dark minds who directly mocked the person in the photo, claiming to know them and asserting that they were the school's "chicken," with good quality, cheap prices, and a lack of integrity comparable to ten thousand red and white things. They even claimed to have personally experienced their excellent bed skills.
Below that, there were a bunch of people asking for phone numbers and protection.
Su Yuan ignored these comments outright.
Such low-level troublemakers were either trying to gain attention or just passing the time. She couldn't let herself be bothered by them.
Seeing Su Yuan browsing the web, Ji Yehao and Gao Jun leaned over to take a look. Su Yuan immediately closed the webpage and turned to them, asking, "Do you have any plans for the afternoon?"
Ji Yehao and Gao Jun shook their heads. "Lan Qiuzhu called us to prepare for a program. Are you coming?"
"What program?"
Su Yuan asked reflexively.
Ji Yehao said, "In a couple of days, there's a welcome party for new students. The anime club is also preparing to make an appearance at this party to boost our presence! It's also a chance to train the new members."
"By the way, Lan Qiuzhu, as the club president, originally wanted you to perform a dance or something, but she was depressed for several days after hearing that you were bitten by a snake."
Hearing Gao Jun's words, Su Yuan's lips twitched. This Lan Qiuzhu was really unsettling, actually targeting her! Asking her to dance on stage, what a ridiculous idea.
Just because Su Yuan had a good figure and a good face, it didn't mean she was a good dancer. Reality would cruelly tell Lan Qiuzhu that she was being too presumptuous!
If Su Yuan were to dance on stage, she might end up performing a zombie dance instead of a peacock dance!
This was a talent that transcended species, a beauty that ordinary people couldn't understand.
Listening to the two of them, Su Yuan couldn't help but feel that the snake bite was perfectly timed. Indeed, compared to the venomous snake, she was more afraid of being in the spotlight, where people would scrutinize her with various gazes.
Singing and dancing, which showcased personal talent, were like forcing a duck to climb a tree for Su Yuan, as she was an outsider in this field!
"How about it, do you want to go to the anime club with us to watch the new members rehearse?" Gao Jun smiled eagerly, glanced at Su Yuan's foot, and said, "Of course, since you have a leg injury, Ji Yehao and I will help you get there."
"Uh, I think I'll pass." Thinking of Lan Qiuzhu's dictatorial queen-like behavior, Su Yuan was afraid that she would become a lamb for the slaughter if she went to the anime club. If Lan Qiuzhu had a sudden idea and made her play a disabled person finding love through anime, where would she cry?
"I have to go to the school's external affairs department later, so I won't have time to go to the anime club."
"Going to the external affairs department alone?" Ji Yehao looked at her foot and frowned. "Do you need me to help you get there?"
"No need, I'm not really disabled!"
The swelling in her leg was gradually subsiding. According to the doctor, even with the injection of antivenom serum, it would take at least a month for all symptoms to completely disappear. The hardest part was over, and now it was just a matter of waiting for it to recover.
"My tomorrow, which day, will I stop missing. Forget the time, forget yesterday, love and hate will no longer be repeated..." At that moment, Ji Yehao's phone rang. Seeing the number, it was from home.
"Hello, what's up..."
After hanging up, Ji Yehao had a strange expression. Su Yuan looked at him curiously and asked, "What's wrong?"
Shaking his head, Ji Yehao smiled bitterly. "It was a call from home. My parents are upset that I didn't tell them about your injury! Strange, how did they find out about the snake bite?"
Su Yuan laughed. "I forgot to tell you, I ran into your parents a few days ago, so they know about my situation."
Ji Yehao nodded. "They probably knew you were back at school, so they called to remind me."
"Remind you of what?"
Ji Yehao smiled. "My parents are very satisfied with you and told me to step up and win you over soon!"
Su Yuan's expression immediately became awkward. The most frustrating thing was that she had just been teasing others, and now it was her turn to be teased. Her visit to Ji Yehao's home might have been a major mistake in her life.
Seeing Su Yuan's awkward expression, Ji Yehao laughed heartily and left with Gao Jun for the anime club. Su Yuan thought for a moment, closed her laptop, picked up the cane beside her, and headed to the external affairs department.
After nearly half a month, the external affairs department was still the same. Su Yuan's office position was right in front of Zuo Zhao's office, so anyone looking for Zuo Zhao had to pass by her.
When Su Yuan limped into the activity room, there were only three or four people there. Many of the staff had been dispatched to help with the welcome party.
Seeing the big minister Su Yuan limping in, the people in the activity room quickly came over to show concern. Yan Bing, the young girl, was the first to step forward, enthusiastically helping her.
"Minister Su, are you feeling better now?" Her eyes were bright and full of concern.
"Don't worry, I'm fine!"
Sitting down at her desk, she asked, "Where's Minister Zuo?"
"He's gone to make promotional posters..."
"Isn't that the job of the publicity department?" Su Yuan was surprised.
Yan Bing shook her head. "It's said that the publicity department is short-staffed, and the secretariat asked us to help."
Understanding the reason, Su Yuan didn't say anything more. Zuo Zhao had taken people to help the publicity department, while others were contacting groups in society to participate in the party. The entire external affairs department was busy, except for her, the "patient," and the introverted Yan Bing, who had nothing to do.
After a short while, Zuo Zhao returned with a group of people. Seeing Su Yuan back, he immediately smiled. "Su Yuan, I heard you had an accident. How are you feeling now?" He glanced at the cane beside her, his eyes showing surprise. "Why are you using a cane?"
Su Yuan smiled bitterly. "No choice, my leg is still swollen and I can't walk! Minister Zuo, thank you for your concern. I'm much better now."
"Good to hear!" Zuo Zhao walked over and put his arm around Su Yuan's neck, acting in a very open and friendly manner, completely disregarding the "difference between men and women." "To celebrate your return, how about we all go out for dinner tonight?"
"Sure!"
Su Yuan smiled and agreed.
"By the way, how about inviting Ling Chendong and Xiao Yayan? You're so close to them, you can definitely get them to come."
When Zuo Zhao said this, the expressions of the twenty or so people present became complicated.
This incredibly handsome "boy" had such influence? Ling Chendong, the vice president of the student council, was sincere and not hard to invite, but Xiao Yayan was different. Many people wanted to invite her, but she never agreed to have dinner with anyone.
Thinking of the recent rumors about Su Yuan and Xiao Yayan, everyone had their own thoughts.
A few girls looked at Su Yuan with sparkling eyes, as if her spring was about to arrive. The boys, on the other hand, looked at her for the first time with a new perspective. But seeing the gentle lines on Su Yuan's face, they felt a sting and quickly looked away, muttering to themselves: "Oh no, this is a person who can change a man's orientation!"
For their own happiness, they should stay as far away from her as possible!
Su Yuan couldn't agree with Zuo Zhao's suggestion and hesitated. "Let's not, it's better to have a department-only dinner without them."
Zuo Zhao smiled. "Alright, if you don't want to, then we won't."
Next, the girls gathered around Su Yuan, chatting and trying to get closer to her, giggling all the while. The boys also became more enthusiastic, probably because they saw that Minister Su had a leg injury and were willing to do whatever she asked, although some of them blushed whenever they saw her.
Sigh! Although they had already decided to stay away from her, they were still unconsciously influenced by her.
